Hotel sharing?

If I see other computers on my desk, the others are able to view/download my files?

Do you have system preferences-> sharing-> file sharing enabled?

You have an easy to guess password?

You have an easy to guess the username?

You write all this information and post it in the hotel lobby?

In general, you do not have a username, they can guess, and you do not have a password that they can guess, and you do not post this information for others to use, if 'no', they cannot access your Macbook Air.

Computers with a sort of file or active screen sharing, that will be broadcast on the local network.  You Mac see these shows and list for you in your Finder sidebar.  This does not mean that they can get into your Mac.  This does not mean that they are already in your Mac. TI, only means, they announced their gifts and your Mac gives you the ability to connect to them (assuming you are in your own home or in your business, and it could be you need to connect to systems; the Mac does not know you are at the hotel and they are perfect strangers).

  • Need help, troubleshooting a LAN hotel (captive portal)

    This problem is not specific to Firefox, but I'm trying to see how I can use Firefox debugging features to solve a network problem. I stay in a hotel in China that uses a so-called "captive portal" to authenticate individuals before using the network. (This means that his first action navigation is redirected to the web page of the hotel for entering login information - as is often done in cafes, etc.). Using my own laptop, the redirect works if I use wifi and fails if I use the network cable (Firefox and IE both give the same result). I want my PC to work in both cases (and, in fact, it worked the day before by using a network cable to another location in the same hotel chain, which also uses what seems to be the same system of redirection). The hotel staff showed me that a PC provided by the hotel will work with the cable. So from their point of view, something is wrong with my PC, and from my point of view, something is wrong with their network. I need to know who he is.

    I enabled HTTP logging in Firefox on my PC. I noticed a cycle of GET requests where a URL has been hardcoded URL several times (so ':' becomes '% 3A', which becomes 'a 253% ', then '% 25253A', etc.). For GET requests get longer before reaching a limit, I guess... the end result being an error '400' ('bad request'). Because their servers are initially redirects, I can only assume they have a bug causing this repetitive URL encoding. But, mysteriously, the PC provided by the hotel does not have the problem (and neither does my PC when using wifi). As far as I know, Firefox and IE both fail in case of failure, and both are successful in the case of success, then I do not suspect the browser.

    My goal is to fix my system (if that is where the fault lies) or show the hotel staff which is the fault in their network (by demonstrating that the fault can occur even without my PC being involved). Effort on the PC provided by the hotel of troubleshooting is limited by the fact that, once authentication succeeds, I can't induce it expires, so I can't experiment a lot with the mechanism of redirection using this PC. Any ideas?

    Try this: go to your Control Panel then network and sharing Center then click on change settings card on the left side. Right click on your Ethernet-> properties, and then select internet protocol version 4-> properties and click on obtain an ip address automatically and obtain dns server automatically.

  • Internet connection sharing cannot be enabled.

    Greetings. I noticed a lot of posts about a similar situation, but I don't seem to find the answer that works for me. The skinny: using Windows 7. I connected to XBox live through ICS with my laptop. Hotel has wireless and I connected to it. Then, I followed the instructions and my wireless for sharing of the value. From there on, I wired XBox laptop w/ethernet cable and XBox settings manually configured as IP address, subnet, gateway, & DNS address mask. It was working fine the first day. During the next two days, connection was super slow... but it still worked. The problem does not seem to come from the hotel's Wi - Fi connection. It was the laptop for XBox it seemed. So I did some reading more and got more stupid than usual. I tried to 'Bridge' of the LAN and wireless connections to see if I could get better results. I'm not too good sense of course so I didn't know if it would work. There can be no. This is why I removed the two bridge connections and even removed the icon of "Bridge". I tried to go back to the original configuration that has worked and that's when I started getting the "connection sharing Internet can not be activated. A LAN connection is already configured with the IP address that is required for automatic IP addressing"message. So now, when I check the share my wireless, I have that message and it won't share. I'm lost! I tried "ipconfig \all. I tried "netsh winsock reset." Nothing seems to work. I don't know if I'm doing something of out of order which does not allow local network setting. I mean... what must be plugged in the ethernet cable, or even not at all, and when it is, that the parameters of the Xbox is? I even put the XBox failing to see network settings if I could start to this end. If it was not obvious, I'm still able to access the internet wireless and wired. This is something crazy and so far, none of my smart friends have been able to help! Thanks in advance for any of yours. As I said, I'm really not good with this stuff so if you have answers, please show idiot as I am a fool proof. See you soon!  Jim C

  • 2 TM lock and DDL shared lock mode

    (Oracle 9.2)

    Hi guys,.

    as I understand it,

    a 2 lock TM mode allows the DML to occur, but stops the other DDL occurs.
    a shared lock of DDL allows the DML to occur, but stops the other DDL occurs.

    Therefore, is it safe to say shared DDL lock = mode lock 2 TM? or I've simplified things too?

    Thank you

    Oracleguy,
    In a way its correct to say cela, but they both work in different ways. Lock TM is essentially for the tables for the DMLs.As long as you a few LMD hotel the table, others cannot make a ddl top and corru [pt it.]
    The shared DOF is mainly for tables not just for other objects as well. If we see the definiition of documentation,
    {quote}
    Share DDL locks

    Some DDL operations require DDL locks for a resource part prevent destructive interference with contradictory DDL operations, but allow competitive access to data for similar DDL operations. For example, when a CREATE PROCEDURE statement is executed, the transaction containing acquires locks DDL share for all referenced tables. Other transactions can simultaneously create procedures that reference the same tables and consequently simultaneous locks share DDL on the same tables, but no transaction can acquire an exclusive lock for DOF on any referenced table. No transaction can modify or delete a referenced table. Thus, a transaction that holds a DDL lock is guaranteed that the definition of the referenced schema object will remain constant for the duration of the transaction.

    Action DDL lock is acquired on a schema object for the DDL statements that include the following: AUDIT, NOAUDIT, COMMENT, CREATE (or REPLACE) a VIEW / PROCEDURE/PACKAGE/PACKAGE BODY/FUNCTION/TRIGGER, CREATE the SYNONYM and CREATE TABLE (when the CLUSTER setting is not included).

  • Photos shared on iOS devices use data?

    I have created a number of shared albums in the Photos on my Mac and iOS devices.

    When other people visit then shared albums, what data are used to access?

    I invited a person to see a shared album which had mobile data off on their iOS device and no wifi. However, they were able to access a shared album which surprised me because I assume they would have need of mobile data or wifi.

    Shared albums are stored locally on the iOS devices. Photos downloads smaller and optimized versions pictures of an iPhone. iCloud, sharing photos - Apple Support

    Once shared, pictures taken with your standard devices, iOS devices or cameras have up to 2048 pixels on the long edge. Panoramic photos can be up to 5400 pixels wide.

    Are your 11 photos recently imported into an album, and id you select in an albumen?

  • Video metadata date is incorrect: the value and not of creation date sharing

    10 iOS, iPhone 6 +, Windows 10. Photos and videos are shared through iCloud, but NOT stored in iCloud.

    Once synced on my PC, the photos and videos have a truncated name (for example, "016a1f2e11dfcc680e1009cb96346b67678fb2c6bc.jpg"). Of course, this is not acceptable at all to me when I organize them on my NAS: I prefer a significant, sortable name, as "2016-09-16 18-15-20259 (Apple iPhone 6 more) .jpg.

    To do this, I simply read the EXIF information directly from the image, and I rename the image accordingly. No problem for the photos.

    But for videos... I do the same, in the world, but with less information. I can extract only creation date/time from metadata of the videos, not the unit that captured video. Sad, but I have not found anything else, and at least it's automatic.

    Recently, I found that the date in the video file is NOT correct: this is the timecode of SHARING via iCloud, not the timecode CAPTURE. I have therefore some videos with a delta of two weeks between the true creation as well as the "official" date

    I checked this on my phone: date is correct (once the video is no longer in full screen, the date is displayed at the top of the screen, and it is 'the' date I'm looking).

    So, question: How can I get the date of the 'real' creation of all these videos on my PC? It exists: it appears on the iPhone that took the video (a woman) AND mine. Information is 'lost' only on the PC, but I think it's a problem of reading of 'bad' metadata (I use FFMPEG to get currently), or the wrong file for reading (perhaps within an iTunes/database file, but didn't find, not found in the registry or the other).

    Best solution is to find something operate locally, through the command line, to do it in batch mode. A solution of GUI PEUT agree if I can automate with AutoIt (i.e. should not be a native Win32 application, not Java, .NET, GTK, QT and so on, OR must have an export feature). A solution based on the web is not suitable, but can be less boring to review each video one after another to manually check the date.

    Thanks in advance.

    In my opinion, the only way to fix this is with third-party software like this one.

    my daughter has every music we want to pass the family sharing the will she lose her purchases

    Mvangordon,

    She will be able to keep all purchases on his account.  See this document:

    Family shares - Apple Support

    Note that "all eligible songs, albums, movies, TV shows, books and applications already bought by members of the family are immediately available for everyone in the family."

    In the future if she leaves the group sharing of the family, she is no longer able to share purchases, but she will always keep its own.

  • Home sharing a fall of Apple TV 3 rd gen.

    I have two devices. A MacBook Air 13 inch (2013) and a new iMac 27 K 5 in. end 2015 (OS 10.11.6). The iTunes is the last 12.1.5.21 and once on the version previous home sharing would be cut at random on my Apple 3rd GEN MacBook Air TV is never a problem, just this iMac. Yesterday I fixed in signing off everything, leave iTunes, restarted my iMac, reboot of the Capsule of ancient times - not sure of the model, then by restarting Apple TV. He was working back. Then I just tried this and failed. Then, I am registered on the sharing House Apple TV and iTunes from iMac, restarted the router and voila it worked. Now while typing this it just cut off again. This is while watching videos streaming on Apple TV, the main reason I bought the thing.

    Now I try the same procedure to see if it will work. Why - what is falling all the time. I am registered on iTunes, but Apple TV says that I am not connected. This is getting very frustrating.

    HI T - dude,

    Thank you for using communities of Apple Support. From what you have said, it seems that for Apple TV streaming home sharing is cutting.  Looks like you already have a troubleshooting. There are a few things that we can do that you mentioned not try again. I recommend you read these articles, since this seems consistent throughout a few Macs, maybe it's a problem with the AppleTV.

    If you use an airport or a Time Capsule, check the firmware updates.
