Disable WiFi on TC and used as a backup only

I have a Time Capsule that I want to disable the functionality of WiFi Access Point and JUST keep the Capsule as the backup drive.

I bought a new router that is not Apple Time Capsule, and I really don't want to have WiFi on the TC, and I want to be able to still use it to back up my data on my Mac Mini and Mac Book Pro. How to achieve this?

Please notify.

Thank you.

You should be able to have the configuration of TC bridge (Network Tab... Choose the option above, router: Off (bridge mode).

The TC is still available on the network.

However Apple pointed out that it may be difficult if the computer is not directly connected to the TC in wireless or ethernet.

My advice is to test as above... If you find after a day or two, the TC drop off the network, you will need to use a different approach.

Either use the TC as a switch... If the iMac in particular can connect through it in ethernet... but if your Setup is wireless, it becomes complicated.

  • Z10 blackBerry a way to disable the bluetooth handset and use activate streaming audio only?

    I use bluetooth in my car to make or receive phone calls and it only allows you to stream Pandora.  On my previous BBs, I was able to disable the handset function and just use streaming, but I'm not find similar options on the Z10.  Does anyone know how to do this? Right now I just turn off my stereo when I receive a call, but this isn't a good solution.  Thanks for any comments.

    Hello oumiahamada and welcome to the community of BlackBerry Support Forums.

    Thank you for your question about Bluetooth.

    The Z10 BlackBerry doesn't have the option to edit what services are allowed with a Bluetooth connection.

    Depending on your vehicle, you will need to access your Bluetooth set up or the settings in the dashboard of your car to control what features are Bluetooth-enabled.

    If you don't know how to access these settings, contact your dealer or see your owner's manual.

  • I took the SIM card of my 5s and put it in my 6 s and used an iTunes backup. If I have my 5 s factory reset it will do the same to my 6s?

    So I got an iPhone 5S for about two years. I wanted to update so I got the iPhone 6s for Christmas. The Christmas day, after two hours of poor internet connection, have to update iTunes and having my iCloud backups do not work because they were on iOS 9.2 and iPhone 6s, I am on iOS 9.1, I started the 6s upward as new and updated updated to iOS 9.2. * After that, I took my nano off the old 5s iPhone sim card and put it in the iPhone 6 s, then I used the iTunes backup.*

    After all this was done I was enjoying the hell out of my new phone and all its features fantasies and what not. But I had a thought, now that I got a new phone I could use my old 5s as more than a games/iPod phone.

    So my question is this:

    If I factory reset my iPhone 5 s and wipe your own will, which are the same in my iPhone 6 s even though they are both still connected? (what I mean is, for example, if I changed/added a note to my 6 sec it would seem on my 5 institutions). My concern is that I always use the same sim card that was in my iPhone 5 s. I do not want to reset the 5 s and then have it do the same thing on my new 6 s.

    Or can I go to manage the devices on my Apple ID and take the 5 s out of it, then factory reset 5s.

    No, the deletion of your old phone will have no effect on your new phone.

  • Can I install a new HARD drive and use an old backup

    Just, I got my new Dell's HARD drive and need to install it in my Dim 9200. Can I use the old hard drive as a backup drive or secondary without deleting anything or reformatting? I have too many things on the old drive and am not crazy about cloning, I prefer to do a clean install of XP and be able to do things more when I feel the need. Is this possible or am I dreaming.

    Has never done this before so I need help. Thank you.

    After installing the new drive hard SATA and windows installation, etc. and when it works to your satisfaction, put the 'old' drive as the secondary, transfer all the files and folders you need in the new C: / volume, using the option "send to."  Providing the old hard drive has no problems, then the format and partition the drive for additional storage.

    Note. Only files and folders can be transferred, all programs and applications must be reinstalled from their records, or downloaded from the site of the publishers.

    Quick solution myself:

    you will need to edit in the file following with the name "yourname.lenovoconfig" in the second line the uuid, you can see under settings / location & Security / Configuration profiles. The uuid is the alphanumeric code long of the parameters that was installed by the exchange server. You are able to also change th eDevice settings above, I blocked Dataroaming for example.

    
    
    http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance" xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="lenovoconfig.xsd" uuid="xxxxxx-xxxx-xxxxx">
    
    
    Sample policy Manual yes no
    Allow Allow Allow Allow Block Allow Allow Allow Allow Allow Allow Allow Allow Allow

    What to do step by step:

    1 configure the Exchange account

    2 Note the uuid of the Exchange Server in the settings

    3. delete the Exchange account

    4 adjust the uuid and your settings at the top of the source code and send it to your Lenovo over e-mail - for example your googlemail.

    5. click on the lenovoconfig file and install the Lenovo-Profilmanager

    6. new to connect to your Exchange Server.

    7. now, everything should work how implement you the Lenovo Support contains a sample file with all the setting options which could be very useful. My settings are only a small facility to come around the problem. Hope to train here all I've been able to help.

  • I use Firefox for a kiosk application. Can I disable the context menu and zoom?

    I use Firefox for an application kiosk on a touch screen monitor. I will prevent users from interacting with the browser interface. Is there a way to do this? Disable the context menu and zoom for the touch gestures could prevent users from getting into a State where they are unable to use the application.

    Hi TrevorTubbs, you can disable the zoom in the browser with the method described in http://kb.mozillazine.org/Locking_preferences & locking these preferences:

    lockPref("toolkit.zoomManager.zoomValues"; "1");
    lockPref("zoom.maxPercent"; 100);
    lockPref("zoom.minPercent"; 100);

    You may have installed one or more variants of the malware "VSearch' ad-injection. Please back up all data, and then take the steps below to disable it.

    Do not use any type of product, "anti-virus" or "anti-malware" on a Mac. It is never necessary for her, and relying on it for protection makes you more vulnerable to attacks, not less.

    Malware is constantly evolving to work around defenses against it. This procedure works now, I know. It will not work in the future. Anyone finding this comment a couple of days or more after it was published should look for a more recent discussion, or start a new one.

    Step 1

    VSearch malware tries to hide by varying names of the files it installs. It regenerates itself also if you try to remove it when it is run. To remove it, you must first start in safe mode temporarily disable the malware.

    Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or an earlier version, or if a firmware password is defined, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can not do this. Ask for other instructions.

    Step 2

    When running in safe mode, load the web page and then triple - click on the line below to select. Copy the text to the Clipboard by pressing Control-C key combination:

    /Library/LaunchDaemons

    In the Finder, select

    Go ▹ go to the folder...

    from the menu bar and paste it into the box that opens by pressing command + V. You won't see what you pasted a newline being included. Press return.

    A folder named "LaunchDaemons" can open. If this is the case, press the combination of keys command-2 to select the display of the list, if it is not already selected.

    There should be a column in the update Finder window. Click this title two times to sort the content by date with the most recent at the top. Please don't skip this step. Files that belong to an instance of VSearch will have the same date of change for a few minutes, then they will be grouped together when you sort the folder this way, which makes them easy to identify.

    Step 3

    In the LaunchDaemons folder, there may be one or more files with the name of this form:

    com Apple.something.plist

    When something is a random string, without the letters, different in each case.

    Note that the name consists of four words separated by dots. Typical examples are:

    com Apple.builins.plist

    com Apple.cereng.plist

    com Apple.nysgar.plist

    There may be one or more items with a name of the form:

    com.something.plist

    Yet once something is a random string, without meaning - not necessarily the same as that which appears in one of the other file names.

    These names consist of three words separated by dots. Typical examples are:

    com.semifasciaUpd.plist

    com.ubuiling.plist

    Sometimes there are items (usually not more than one) with the name of this form:

    com.something .net - preferences.plist

    This name consists of four words (the third hyphen) separated by periods. Typical example:

    com.jangly .net - preferences.plist

    Drag all items in the basket. You may be prompted for administrator login password.

    Restart the computer and empty the trash.

    Examples of legitimate files located in the same folder:

    com.apple.FinalCutServer.fcsvr_ldsd.plist

    com Apple.Installer.osmessagetracing.plist

    com Apple.Qmaster.qmasterd.plist

    com Apple.aelwriter.plist

    com Apple.SERVERD.plist

    com Tether.plist

    The first three are clearly not VSearch files because the names do not match the above models. The last three are not easy to distinguish by the name alone, but the modification date will be earlier than the date at which VSearch has been installed, perhaps several years. None of these files will be present in most installations of Mac OS X.

    Do not delete the folder 'LaunchDaemons' or anything else inside, unless you know you have another type of unwanted software and more VSearch. The file is a normal part of Mac OS X. The "demon" refers to a program that starts automatically. This is not inherently bad, but the mechanism is sometimes exploited by hackers for malicious software.

    If you are not sure whether a file is part of the malware, order the contents of the folder by date modified I wrote in step 2, no name. Malicious files will be grouped together. There could be more than one such group, if you attacked more than once. A file dated far in the past is not part of the malware. A folder in date dated Middle an obviously malicious cluster is almost certainly too malicious.

    If the files come back after you remove the, they are replaced by others with similar names, then either you didn't start in safe mode or you do not have all the. Return to step 1 and try again.

    Step 4

    Reset the home page in each of your browsers, if it has been modified. In Safari, first load the desired home page, then select

    ▹ Safari preferences... ▹ General

    and click on

    Set on the current Page

    If you use Firefox or Chrome web browser, remove the extensions or add-ons that you don't know that you need. When in doubt, remove all of them.

    The malware is now permanently inactivated, as long as you reinstall it never. A few small files will be left behind, but they have no effect, and trying to find all them is more trouble that it's worth.

    Step 5

    The malware lets the web proxy discovery in the network settings. If you know that the setting was already enabled for a reason, skip this step. Otherwise, you should undo the change.

    Open the network pane in system preferences. If there is a padlock icon in the lower left corner of the window, click it and authenticate to unlock the settings. Click the Advanced button, and then select Proxies in the sheet that drops down. Uncheck that Auto Discovery Proxy if it is checked. Click OK, and then apply.

    Step 6

    This step is optional. Open the users and groups in the system preferences and click on the lock icon to unlock the settings. In the list of users, there may be some with random names that have been added by the malware. You can remove these users. If you are not sure whether a user is legitimate, do not delete it.

    I tried two methods that I have heard so far to disable the new firefox pdf 19 viewr:

    The problem: when I'm on the Foxit pdf viewing application, firefox automatically downloads the pdf file to open it in the separate application. Until firefox 19, application of Foxit reader will open in the browser. How can Foxit not having an add-on firefox, I disable the pdf viewer 19 firefox and use Foxit Reader to open PDF files as a new tab in the browser?

    To display the content in a Firefox tab, it generally takes a plugin. If that's not come with the main installer, it seems that you can use one of them:

  • When travel abroad (overseas) and use the WIFI, I can get incoming emails and browse the web, but cannot send emails.

    If I can find the SMTP that is used by the hotel, I can simply change my outgoing SMTP accordingly. But invariably, they do not understand the issue and unless I can find the outgoing SMTP, I'm unable to send.

    Is it possible to automatically pick up the SMTP Protocol out of the WIFI service that I use? How can I change my settings to do this?

    No, there is no easy way to do it, because the SMTP settings are often specific to the provider.  What you might try is to contact your local ISP and see if they can give you an option to send when you are not connected to them.  In addition, you can use webmail to access and send e-mail.  If your ISP doesn't have this option, there are several free accounts or cheap you can register for (gmail, hotmail, yahoo, etc.).

  • WIFI disabled on windows vista and cannot wireless connect to the net

    WIFI disabled on windows vista and cannot wireless connect to the net, but bluetooth wireless Wi - Fi and fine switch is activated. Have a problem with ISATAP #5 who is incapable of solving that can be bound.

    All of a sudden I lost my internet connection wireless and I am unable to return.  May be because recent windows update.  Error messages on the wireless assistant say WLAN offshore or disabled.  I have tried every fix.

    In device Manager (under network adapters) shows also that MS ISATAP disabled with "Windows cannot load driver (Code 31).  When I try to update the driver, "Best driver already installed" appears.

    Is there a way to FIX?

  • How to disable the built-in PDF Viewer and use another Viewer at all times?

    How to disable the built-in PDF Viewer and use Adobe Reader to view the PDF files, without having to set this preference, whenever I open Firefox? The default setting to "Use Adobe Acrobat (in Firefox)". Thank you.

    It's strange. The integrated Viewer - Viewer by default - is described by the expression 'Preview in Firefox' and you will have changed to "Use Adobe Acrobat (in Firefox)".

    Well... you or an add-on or another program on your system must be changed.

    What happens if you disable the Adobe Acrobat plugin (not the extension to create a PDF file, leave it active). Here's how you can try this:

    Open the page modules using either:

    • CTRL + SHIFT + a
    • "3-bar" menu button (or tools) > Add-ons

    In the left column, click on Plugins. On the right side, find "Adobe Acrobat" and change the permission 'never enable '.

    Then in the Options page, Applications Panel, change your preference for "Portable Document Format (PDF)" to "Always ask" so you get the dialog box to download instead of the PDF, open in a tab.

    It sticks?
