  • Is it safe to leave your Mac to sleep while not using it?

    Is it safe to leave your Mac to sleep while not using it?

    Of course, it is safe. Sleep is the best way to let your Mac if you use in a short period of time (process of awakening is much faster but to turn on your Mac, whenever you want to use it), and your Mac also consumes very little power in this mode. However, it is better to turn off your Mac if you are not going to use it for a long time.

    To secure your Mac by others, I suggest you to set up your Mac to request your password after waking up from his sleep. You can do System Preferences-> Security & privacy-> general-> 'ask the password... ».

    What software is better and safer to protect my Mac - OSX El Capitan 10.11.3? I was bombarded by MacKeeper advertising claiming recently that my Mac has "serious" problems and offering discounts of wholesale so that until recently the MacKeeper said my system was well protected and works well!

    MacKeeper is considered malware: never install or use it. No Web site can analyze your Mac for "problems." If your Mac does not appear no matter what strange behaviour, it is not necessary to make "clean-up" operations

  • Using a Mac as a media server

    I would use a Mac Mini as the entrance to multimedia server of my sound system.

    I need to make the Mac Mini iTunes DLNA server that can connect to the device that acquires different sources and distributes the sound for different areas of households and their wired speakers.

    Did someone familiar with the different DLNA servers available?

    I ripped my CD collection in MP3s a while back so I could listen to them on mobile devices, especially in the car.  But I would be re-rip them in WAV or AIFF to produce quality music CD to the home entertainment system.  So I would like to ensure that the DLNA server is not only reliable, but high enough quality that I wouldn't have problems streaming music in real time and without abandonment or loss.

    I'd be happy to expertise and recommendations in this area.

    Thank you.

    Some DLNA aka software. UPnP software includes the ability to "transcode" files video or audio from one format to another. So if you have a mix of DLNA clients that does support all the same format, it can convert the files for those in need. You can take this into consideration when choosing a package DNLA for your Mac.

    Before I get to DLNA, I would say that the DNLA is old, poorly supported, behaved badly and I advise you if possible to avoid. There are other approaches that you can choose from are better for you but if not, then go to the answers below DNLA.

    First of all, the other non-DNLA approach. To do the audio multi-room, the Prime Minister is to buy a Sonos system. With this you buy either pregnant Sonos e.g. Play: 3 or you buy a Sonos Connect which allows you to connect an existing amplifier. Sonos supports all audio formats supported by iTunes, including Apple Lossless, that will be the best format to use if possible. While Sonos is the market leader there are other brands offer similar solutions. Other systems similar to Sonos examples of Logitech Squeezebox, Roku SoundBridge (interrupted), an Apple TV3 or TV4, etc.. All these support Apple Lossless and all different rooms playing different titles at the same time.

    A second approach is to use the standard Apple's AirPlay, many AV receivers now support AirPlay if you have a network interface on your AV receiver which these days is standard or an option on most. iTunes would then broadcast directly to the AV receiver using the standard of airtime.

    A third similar approach is to get one or more AirPort Express WiFi-base stations, they have an audio connector, you AirPlay from iTunes to the AirPort Express and it outputs via its audio connector of the connected audio equipment that could be pregnant or audio/video receiver.

    Now there is a limitation with AirPlay, only iTunes can only produce airplay the same content to one or more destinations AirPlay, if you want to play several different songs at the same time, so that's where the Sonos and similar solutions win. The iTunes can however be a Mac, or Windows, or an iPhone or an iPad.

    Go to the DLNA. You'll probably find many DNLA for Mac servers are abandoned or semi abandoned in that they have not had a recent update and so may have problems with versions of Mac OS X or only work with certain customers or do not transcode well or at all. In other words like DLNA as a whole, it is rather a mess. You will find that you have to buy a package commercial DNLA although it will always be cheaper that buying a Sonos multi-room installation. I advise to test trial versions, be sure to remove each before trying the next.

    With no particular feeling, take a look at the following.

    Hello joebat,

    It seems that some of your plugins (Shockwave Flash 10.1 r102) might be buggy or obsolete. To check for updates, please visit the plugincheck page. If this does not resolve the problem, try to start Firefox with the disabled modules and see if it helps at all. If so, delete the Shockwave Flash plugin and maybe reinstall or uninstall Firefox and do a new clean install.
    If that is not yet solved the problem, try the following troubleshooting steps: http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/installation-problems-flash-player-mac.html

    Thank you for your patience and please let me know how it goes.

    Hello ifixer2,

    Thank you for using communities of Apple Support.

    No, you need two or more Mac computers that meet the following requirements to use Back to My Mac:

    What you'll need

    To configure and use Back to My Mac, you need these things:

    • Two or more Mac computers that use the same account iCloud on OS X Lion v10.7.5 or later version.
    • A Terminal supported access AirPort (AirPort Extreme, AirPort Express or AirPort Time Capsule) or other Internet router that supports UPnP or NAT - PMP protocol, with the latest firmware available. AirPort base stations require version of firmware 7.6.1 or later for Back to My Mac.
    • Utility airPort 6.3 or later.
    • For screen sharing, a 300 Kbits/s-or-more rapid, bidirectional (high-low) Internet connection between computers. You may be able to use with slower connections to share files. If file sharing doesn't work as you think, check your settings and connections.
    • A firewall that allows remote connections. Some firewalls may prevent some back to my Mac connections. For example, when you're at home, don't maybe not able to connect you to your Mac at work. But when you're at work, you might be able to connect to your Mac at home. If you are not sure if the firewall will allow the back to my Mac connections, check with the network administrator for your organization.

    If you want to use an AirPort Extreme or airport Time Capsule to access files on a hard drive external, you need a Mac OS extended (journaled) formatted USB hard drive. When you use with Back to My Mac, your hard drive is displayed as the base under shared in the sidebar station Finder.

    Set up and use Back to My Mac

    Take care.
