• Why do both my Apple TV appear in iTunes preferences MAC

  I have a 3rd generation Apple TV in my family room. and a 4th generation Apple TV in the games room.  They have separate names. The 3rd generation Apple TV shows only in iTunes preferences on my Mac.  However, if I play music on my MAC, and I want to use multiple speakers Apple TV display and I can listen to music on two of them.  I wonder why my 4th generation Apple TV doesn't appear in iTunes preferences on my MAC?

  My MAC running OS X El Capitan, V 10.11.5; two software Apple TV is updated.

  4th gen ATV does not appear as a device in iTunes. That is how it is designed.

• 2nd Time Capsule

  I currently have a TC 3 TB connected to a cable modem. I turned on the signal my cable modem wireless turned off and use the TC as my wireless network. It works perfectly and I am very happy with its performance. I had just bought a new iMac and want to use a second TC (2 TB) to back up my new iMac. The new TC (2 TB) will be in my office about 50' of my TC 3 to in the family room (where the modem is located. My question is can I use the second TC to "extend" my network, and also use it to back up my new iMac. The second TC (2 TB) will not be connected to the first (3 TB) but the iMac can be connected to the second TC with ethernet if it would help. Can I use two cameras on the same network. Thanks for the help. I love Apple Support communities.

  My question is can I use the second TC to "extend" my network, and also use it to back up my new iMac.

  Yes, but unfortunately there will always be a significant loss of performance on the network when you try to "expand" using a wireless connection between the time Capsules, or any other router from Apple.

  On average, you should expect to lose about half the maximum speed possible on the network when you extend this way using a wireless connection between the time Capsules, and it assumed that the second Time Capsule will be located at a point where he can receive a strong signal the first time Capsule wireless.

  For example, if you need surplus more wireless signal in the vicinity of the iMac, and then the second time Capsule should be located approximately halfway between the "main" Time Capsule and the iMac.  In other words, if you need better wireless coverage in the vicinity of the iMac, it would be a mistake to locate the second close to the iMac Time Capsule, the Capsule will pick up the same weak signal in this area, and there is little if anything that was acquired by 'extension' of the network with a weak signal.

  You can avoid the degradation of network performance and improve reliability as well if it is possible to use a wired Ethernet cable connection connect the two time Capsules.

• Dual band routers

  I rent currently a double router broadband from Comcast, I pay $10 a month. I went around and around with Comcast internet price. They offer 6 Mbps at $34.99 and then the next step upward is 25 MB/s-$69.99 I. I also have Direct TV which is an absolutely stunning image on all HD TVs in the House. Comcast has fiber optic line on my rural road so the video quality is lower but they insist I'm paying less by consolidating the base with the Internet tv service. I went round and round with them and dropped to the base and found tv service I have would save $6 in FCC fees by paying only for the internet and the double router broadband. My next option is to buy my own router dual-band but I don't know what brand, etc. My House is a brick building with the current router placed at the end of the House in an office where the MBP is using 5 ghz. I use a keyboard and a mouse bluetooth with the Mac. Another room on the same floor has a Windows 10 laptop computer with a wireless printer, and two other rooms have mini geniuses Direct TV on the same floor, which are wireless. The genius of the master TV Live is a lower floor in a family room and I now connected to 5 ghz. There is also a Samsung smart tv and a Sony all the system connected to the network without wire on the lower floor. We have several iPhones and iPads in the House, more heightens. Everything except the Mac and Master engineering are on the 2.4 ghz.  Outside, there is a swimming pool, and the bridge and another in structural steel that need to connect to the wireless network when necessary. Occasionally, I have a lot more portable and connected mobile devices who need. My current router is password protected, and it is a very rural area, so my neighbors needs are much less than mine. So, I need suggestions for brands of routers that work with my devices. I'm not a fool, so I can probably set up a network with a network name and the password of my choice.

  Something to note, twice so far the broken material Comcast last year. The first aircraft was a pain to set up and I needed technical assistance to do this, then he broke and a tech came out and replaced the single band with a double band. Apparently my canton has a problem with the internet service and Comcast has trouble keeping the connected neighborhood.

  I'm not thrilled and shopping online as I like to look at something from all angles and ask tons of questions, then Best Buy will most likely be my choice store. Thanks in advance for any help.

  Any modern router will work. If you want to replace the modem Comcast to ensure that it is compatible with their specifications, I think that no matter what modem docsis 3 will work, but if you ask Comcast they will tell you what to buy. Do not get a gateway (router and modem combined) device. Electronic components fail if you have a gateway device so fails it a router, you need to replace the modem and the router, because they are combined in one device. If you have separate devices and the other fails, you have to replace a defective unit.

• Motorola widgets

  There are a bunch of these (Motorola Widgets as opposed to downloaded Widgets) that come with the phone, where can we get more?

  Where using the default UI House, when you tap on a long press on the screen or press menu > add you will see three sets of widgets.

  Motorola widgets

  Family room Widgets

  Android widgets

  The Motorola Widgets are widgets included with MOTOBLUR, and there is no way to install more that already exist. They could be added as a patch, but there is no way to install them yourself.

  Family room Widgets are widgets for the purposes of the family room which is pre-installed on the phone. Same situation applies for BLUR widgets.

  The Android Widgets are gadgets that came with the phone or the widgets that you have installed from Android Market. You can add them as you will you please, but you cannot remove those who are on the phone by default.

• Starting with the issue of station docking station

  Is there a reason to buy a docking station if you are not going to plug it into your computer?

  We have only 1 computer and it is in the family room. My daughter wants to be able to charge his rocket in his room and his music on the speakers to listen to it. Do we need a dock to do this, or can I just buy a wall charger and some speakers?

  I would certainly go for a wall charger and a plug for RCA cable to connect it to any home stereo system.

  A docking station requires that you keep your sansa for a long time and eventually replace it with another compatible sansa DAP.

  However, a standard charger usb and one connector to RCA cable (or with an input jack computer speakers) can be used with any DAP.

• Set up home network of multi access point

  Recently, I cut the string so to speak with directv and is passed to a streaming cable through view PlayStation. However this left me with a little slower network I want to. I have a 3-storey house in a crowded area and my cable modem is on the lower floor.

  Currently, I have a linksys ea3500 connected to a modem cable in the basement. I have a family room on floor 2, where I connected PlayStation. On the third floor, I have a Roku in the bedroom for live tv broadcast and also a Home Office.

  I can work around 70mbps down when connected via Ethernet to the ea3500 on the ground floor, but a signal wirelessly on the second floor is about 25mbps down and falls to 15 or so away on the third floor.

  I ordered a new router (wrt 1900ACS) and also a netgear powerline 1200 kit. My plan is to connect the line adaptor to the ea3500 and place another line on two ground adapter. To which I would link the wrt 1900 and run as an access point for the existing network. I would also link the PlayStation to the wrt1900 through cat 5 to improve the reliability of the connection.

  My hope is that this will greatly increase my speed of download available in the House. We are connected fairy and at any time have probably 10 to 15 devices (tablets, phones, laptops, TVs, desktop, nest, etc.)

  Given my current gear (and the warning that I won't have to run wires through the wall or through the vents) is the configuration I describe the best way to increase the signal strength and bandwidth bandwidth/speed? Does it matter if I use the new wrt 1900acs as a slave to the ea3500, since it will be connected via the power line to the ea3500 lan port? Should I just unplug the ea3500 and only use the 1900acs on the Middle floor and connect the power supply line direct adapter to the cable modem?

  Any idea to my plan or recommended changes to my plan would be appreciated!

  It's good then let the EA3500 and add the WRT1900ACS in via PowerLine Bridge Mode.

• E4200 v2 wireless signal power is intermittent

  Just updated firmware for 2.1.39.144146

  have 5 GHz mode - mixed, WPA2, 40 mhz, channel 161 channel width

  the rule 2.4 GHz mode - mixed, WPA2, 20 mhz, Channel 6 channel width

  Online technical support said it could solve my problem, but my old e1000 had a stronger and more coherent (fluctuating) broadcast signal.

  My PC and the router are in the family room at the back of the House. The signal strength is Ok in the first room, but 2nd room in front of the House (30 feet and two walls away) it is 3 bars to nothing all the time. We have a guest who stay with us two days a week. There has never been a problem with the signal strength of the e1000 for recent years, but the v2 e4200 behaves like a piece of * beep *. I spent over 60 minutes with an online support person whose answer was to upgrade the firmware (which of course now removes a direct access to the router via the browser.)

  I hope that someone knows what I need to do to make this work, or it goes back to Amazon and I'll buy another brand of dual band N router.

  Change the channel of your router to 1, 9 or 11 to optimize your wireless signal. Maybe this link can help http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/21132/change-your-wi-fi-router-channel-to-optimize-your-wireless-sign....  If still the same, I think this device needs to be replace.

• Impossible to share files on a network - "you are not allowed to access these files.

  original title: remote access computers

  I have 2 computers.  A PC in my office upstairs, a laptop computer in the family room on the ground floor.  I wish I could access on the computer to another without going through e-mail a file to myself a computer and opening and saving the file to the other.  I have searched onlline and through various Windows Vista books but could not find the right answer.  I get a "you are not allowed to access these files" (or something to that effect) whenever I try.  When I go to Windows Explorer and click on 'network', the two computers.

• EA4500 quality of speed and quality of the Signal

  Bought the new EA4500 one a few days ago and watched my wireless connection and see it varies from to 144Mbps 72Mbps.  He has jumped up to 270Mbps sometimes, but rarely.  Shouldn't be 300Mbps most of the time?  My laptop is 4 feet off the router and the router is a cardboard box on the top being raised away from interference.  The previous router was a dlink 855 that went crazy after 3 years.  I think that I was usually at 270 Mbit/s with whom.  What gives?  Should I get a faulty router?  With this new router, I was expecting the range to be much further and more quickly too, but this isn't in my family room.  2nd router floor, family room is 1 floor over about 50 feet away and I have 1 MB/s - 5 Mbps.    Everything is set to Auto on router and IP6 is disabled on the laptop.

  The laptop is 3 years old, has the latest network updates and has used the two wireless G and Wireless N.  Intel WiFi link 5100 AGN network adapter.  Just passed under the advanced network adapter setting and the 2.4 GHZ has been set to 20 Mhz only.  I changed my car and double-checked the setting for 5 GHz.  Now, I'm getting my full 300Mbps on my wireless connection.  Very strange.  I'll see how it behaves at distance next week.

• HP Envy 100 eAll-in-one printer D410b

  I recently bought this printer and I meet a love hate relationship with it. Most of the problems have to do with ePrint. After reviewing the ePrint Forum, it seems that most of the problems originate from an unstable ePrint server.

  My question is: has anyone installed and used this printer? It looks elegant in the family room (not your printer typical aspect). I like the way he reacts to print applications:

  -The door opens and the display will change to indicate an impression begins

  -Out the output tray extension

  -The document is printed

  -When I pick up the paper from the printer, the output extension tray retracts to the printer

  -At this point (or after a short timeout) I expect the door closes, but is not

  -The display goes off and the printer between what I'll call hypernation mode waiting to be awakened for the next print job

  My second question is: anyone knows the door that closes by itself? That seems to be the logical operation when the printer is in mode "hybernation. Then, it was not designed this way (design control), it was not implemented like that (faulty manufacture), or my printer is defective. Responds to everyone?

  Finally the FW update is here. I tried and tried to get this update, but the printer keeps you answer that there are no updates, until I did a reset full semi of the printer. 5 packages where downloaded and installed and the result...

  THIS WORKED, THE DOOR CLOSED AFTER PRINTING!

  I tried the different steps of the printer, Eve---> print---> door closes

  farm online--> print--> door control

  Now I can really enjoy my Envy 100 D410A.

  The new FW ends on 1039HR (Netherlands) the last 2 characters can be voor different other countries.

  I close my contribution on this forum by the note of support HP USA, it is not easy to get new clients, but very diffecult to keep.

  You should have the same policy in the Netherlands...

  THE NUMBER ONE CUSTOMER SATISFACTION

• VPN with 2 routers on the network

  Hey guys,.

  I was trying to figure out this question for months. I currently have a router wired RV018 (routerA) to connect to my modem. I home wired with Ethernet, then the wired router allows to offer internet in these areas (living room, bedrooms, etc...).  I have a second RV110W router (routerB) to connect to the wired router in the family room which is used for the wireless. Right now I have the Ethernet cable plugged into the WAN port on the routerB. Everything is connect the reader network, tablets, computers, server, routerB, stuff like that. I have install PPTP on both routers. I am able to PPTP in routerA and that's it. Because he does not see routerB, I'm unable to access my disk network from a remote location. What I want to do is the PPTP Protocol in routerB directly from a remote location, but I keep getting errors. I have ports 1723 and 47 open on routerA and routerB. I opened an additional port 5008 routerA and routerB but I always get errors.

  Any help would be appreciated. Sorry if it's confusing.

  Yes, if it will be all feature wireless AP/Bridge will do is "convert" packages of wifi packets on ethernet and vice versa. If you then configure your remote access on routerA you will have access to all the wired devices behind routerA as well as devices wired behind routerB and wifi devices. There is no need to access remote set-up on routerB.

  Set - current up

• Best laptop for Premiere Pro CC 2015?

  Hello

  I have a good system in my homeoffice, but now I need a laptop too, for when I m working in another office in the city. I m in a bit of a hurry and have not caught up to lately on all new laptops and things, so I hope that some of you guys are going to give it a try and help me with this one ;-)

  I already have a laptop old 4 year with only 4 GB of RAM and even if it was reasonable employment years in Photoshop CS4 etc it really doesn´t work for anything other than Word, and internetbrowsing more.

  So I need a laptop that will be good, but not a portable workstation $ 10,000...

  I mainly edit AVCHD files and nothing above 1080 50 p, but who knows if I have to deal with 4 K less than a year. The 4K is not a real dealbreaker - 1080 will be fine for a while, but I guess, as I mainly edit videos for use online. In addition, first, I use Indesign, Photoshop. Illustrator and Lightroom a lot.

  As I have VM will be sitting in a small office with two other people, I really need a laptop computer that is not a lot of noise when idle or normal use (like photoshop, etc.) I can live with a little bit of noise during video encoding/export, but not while I'm edditing in first...

  I thought about the ASUS ROG G751JT-T7018H - wich comes with 16 GB of RAM, 256 GB SSD + 1 TB of HARD drive / 7200 RPM,.

  NVIDIA GeForce GTX 970M - 3 GB of GDDR5 memory and love at first sight...

  So the pricetag would be about $2500 I guess - Don t want to spend more. Anyone with experiences with this laptop - including noiselevel?

  My question is (and these question are general issues - not only on the the ASUS mentioned above):

  1 is 16 GB enough RAM - or 32 will make a huge difference? I don't see much improvements when I upgraded my office from 24 to 64 GB of RAM...

  2 Geforce Wich xxxM cards should be avoided - if any? The 970M is supported?

  3 wouldn't be better with a 1 TB drive SSD instead of 256 GB SSD + 1 TB HARD drive? Heat - and noisewise?

  4 think I read somewhere that an external drive (RAID) with crush could speed up things - do smooth editing - any thoughts on love at first sight?

  If you have any suggestions or experiences with Adobe CC running on any of the latest laptops from 2014/2015, please share them.

  THX in advance - and sorry for the long post...

  See you soon

  Well I'm not at all shocking in my family room with it when using the GPU or CPU for the full load running during benchmark PPBM very, but I would not compare to an office altogether.  But then how many times you'd see these extremes during a real edition session.when this is true almost completely silent and my use is current alternative 100% and I'm running the GPU for 50% memory overclocked clock.  It is a G750, I've not seen a G751 but I doubt they changed this aspect of the design.

• Several PC

  Can I use 1 license of Photoshop on two different PC. My Home PC in my office and children PC in the family room?

  Yes, you can use Photoshop on both computers.
