Using the base station airport ONLY as a backup, but is not a router
Hi, I have a simple question that I can't find an answer. I want to use my Airport only base like a time capsule, and not as a wifi hotspot. I'm in a wfi environment that does not have any router, my wifi just to join a wireless network in my office environment. Previously, I worked in an office where I ran a cable DHCP in my airport base station and then he joined with wifi. Now, I just want to use the airport as a backup. Answers to this question involve disable wifi from the airport and hit an ethernet cable from the router to the airport base station. I do not have a router. So is it possible that I can get the device from the airport, make back ups wireless, all at the same time be connected to a wireless network? I'm guessing that the answer is no.
Unfortunately, your proposal of "no" is correct.
However, you could configure the airport Time Capsule (ATC) to create a wireless network (without Internet access) and save on the Time Capsule wireless.
Of course, to do this, when you want to save, you need to log on to your 'normal' wireless network and connect wireless provided by ATC. Once the backup is complete, then you'll need to sign the CTA wireless and log on to your normal wireless network.
All things considered, it would be much easier to invest in a USB low price and connect the HDD directly on your Mac. In this way, you can stay connected to your wireless network normal and backups occur automatically.

How can I change the base station Airport of NAT mode?
I'm trying to set up an Airport base station and stuck because I have the following message is displayed, but no idea how do what he asks...
Status is showing as Double NAT and then asking me to move on to the base station in bridge DHCP/NAT mode.
But where do I do this?
Thank you
It can be difficult to get the router to bridge sometimes... but if all goes well... Click on the airport icon in airport utility and then click on edit.
Go to the network tab and change DHCP and NAT to bridge.
Click Update at the bottom of the page... Then, everything should be good.
If you are having problems follow these steps.
Reset factory airport and then do a manual installation. I recommend that you connect with ethernet which is much more reliable, but your MBPr is not the most important network port that exists... Although there is a bolt of lightning at low cost for the ethernet card.

I have a wired to the internet using my base station for 4 expresses the hard extreme airport. I want to replace the base station with a time capsule.
It is also easy to replace the existing base station and adding the name of the network and the password?
You should be able to transfer your configuration of your current access point to new, and then you would just set up the internal drive, try to look at these articles:

A key using self-powered USB causes the base station go "off-line".
I found that by using a USB drive self-powered, as the WD My Passport, without a USB powered, hub attached to the base of the station USB port has caused the base station go "off-line". In fact, using a powered hub does not always remedy the situation, but it is more reproducible without one.
This is true for the AirPort Extreme and Time Capsule 802.11ac. The problem does not occur immediately, but it may happen over several days. The symptom is that the player is no longer lies in the Finder, or the base station appears in AirPort Utility.
My question is if others have had the same results? ... and did you find permanent solutions?
USB key "seems" less reliable on the airports of AC model than on previous versions.
I tend to not use USB attached to routers because I think it's convenient mediocre and poor speeds. But I tested with previous models, and it seems ok...
KT those a few posts here a me trial there. These are not self powered readers... who I have long recommended people avoid the use (without a powered hub)...
Re: External backup drive down regularly
In fact, the wire is different from what I remember... Age don't you know.
But I did the test on an AC TC. The result has been very reliable. He did not cause the TC to close... but I lost the connection of the USB almost every day... except for a trial where I kept the USB drive mounted in the Finder... so that the USB drive wouldn't turn it down. He then worked for a few weeks... until what the noise of rotation of disk (sitting next to me) drove me crazy... as soon as he was mounted is more, he would pass the same existence as before.
The previous model TC was barely big enough for the internal use of the power supply units. So powered car running disc was impossible.
Provide EI (GEN 1-5) at 1. 8A and 12v was adequate, but the standard USB port is estimated at 500 my wrong to manage disks free power.
You would certainly think AC 12v 5A power supply models would have a lot of power. Yet, power problems are a major problem still. Supply is extremely sensitive and stop easily for reasons I'm still to understand.
Where the long threads on power issues to the AE.
Now, I'm going to speculate... I think that SOME problems are associated with power.
What is the USB port side in airports of AC? Is it still 500ma? Apple never seem to give easy to find info on these details.
Do you know? I haven't measured it, but I can try timing the time it takes to charge a phone. Assuming that it will immediately trigger.
Then he will have problems with a self-powered drive. Even if the drive has less energy than quotes, current during starting is much higher. The restriction of the power on the USB port is managed by a self regulator recovery... Once you triggered it, you must stop the power... then reboot the machine to restore power.
Then, I also did the test with hub powered... and like your results... It was better. Longer time between the drive disappears from the network. But it was not enough to stop it.
There is another interesting effect using self-powered hubs... I discovered this on a computer running Mac OS lets say! The computer would not start with a powered hub connected to the front USB. Hubs self-powered cheap, showing a defect in their design. They can refer to the USB port. In this computer, it was enough to stumble on the good power circuit and prevent the supply, commissioning... As long as the computer is running, everything was fine... but if I turned off it would not start. I finally woke up I had to exit the USB every time. At one point, I made a "special" Cup USB cable 5v line so the hub can stay connected. You can probably just to isolate the 5v of contact in the USB. Regardless of the configuration of power USB in the AE or TC is as you can assume she's sensitive enough... and at any time when the 5V on USB hub exceeds the 5V in AE it could trigger.
The symptom is that the player is no longer lies in the Finder, or the base station appears in AirPort Utility.
Endangered of AU base station is not uncommon.
It responds to the pings? I guess he still has lights but is he blocked? You still get internet through it?
Try to open it manually in to THE... use of the file / configure from others and put the IP address of EI.
Talk with me by e-mail... It is open in the profile.

Light Flsahing Amber on my Airport base station
A persistent, flashing amber light indicates that one of the conditions is possible more may require your attention:
- The base station has not yet been configured, because it's new or reset switch has been set.
- You have chosen a security configuration that is not recommended.
- Among several other conditions, such as a disconnected Ethernet cable or invalid IP address has been detected.
(Ref: AirPort base stations: status of base station on airport (LED))
To find out why your base station status led is orange flashing:
- Open AirPort Utility
- Click on the AirPort base station
- Look for the Status parameter in the small window that appears
- Click on the little orange dot here and another window will open to explain what might be the 'question '.

Any assistance received very warmly.
Thank you!

Maybe's external screen connected to the docking station?

No bass when you use the docking station to not probe
When I use the out port of my docking station (Series edited by moderator) I get no bass sound, just hail my wide range speaker. When the speakers are plugged into the headphone jack directly on the laptop it normal sound, with a full range of sounds. I checked the setting in the CP of its speakers are identified as the range, so this isn't the issue. There is no sound improvement enabled in Control Panel SRS. I'm puzzled. Why no bass when you use the docking station only. I tried two different docking stations with the same result: no bass.
Yes! I finally solved it on my system:
- Go to the control panel
- Choose the material and audio
or simply to display all Control Panel items
- Select SRS Premium Sound Pro (it's an icon of circle blue/white)
- Wait for the program to come black EQ
- Select the tab/words "listening experience" near the top of the window of SRS Premium Sound PRO
- Uncheck the 'improvement of Audio '.
Fact
In addition, there is the graphic equalizer in there that totally works well to further fine tune your desired speaker and the audio preference.

So whenever you use a laptop, you have just dock the laptop on the docking station and not need to re connect all cables again.
This will help you when you move frequently with the laptop.
Docking station will save your time, outside any other aspect, that it has to offer.

I have a VBA application that fills the data in an Acrobat form. Do I have to distribute a complete Acrobat on each machine that uses this application (it will be disastrous) or is there a way I can use the software Acrobat reader only. I use the next AcroExch.App and AcroExch.PDDoc object to the form. I hope there's a distribution object, I can use the full application and not because I don't want users to have access to forms and to keep the cost down.
It is important to realize that the Acrobat SDK kit is a marketing tool for Acrobat. So, Yes, certainly you need a copy for each system. There is no redistributable components.

I have a new iMac and used the disk to install version 6 of photoshop, but I have upgraded to version 12, but its version 6. How can I get version 12? I tried to uninstall, but it does not ask the serial number version 12. Thank you
If you want version 12, then you don't need to install version 6, you must install version 12. If you are really talking about Photoshop Elements, not Photoshop, then the link below, you should get to the download.

I DELETED MY PDF FILES AND AGAIN USING THE RECOVERY SOFTWARE I FIND ALL MY FILES BUT NOW WHEN I OPEN FILES THAT IT SHOWS (THE FILE MAY BE CORRUPTED OR NOT SUPPORTED FORMAT.NO HOW CAN I OPEN THE FILES.) ALL OF THEM ARE MY DOCUMENTS IS VERY IMPORTANT. PLEASE PROVIDE ME WITH A
Deleted file recovery can recover incomplete files, i.e. the part of these files may be missing. Recover deleted files is much more reliable if recovery of a backup, instead of using recovery software.
These things depend on the operating system and the file system.
One thing, you can see: open one of these files damaged with a text editor, and then make sure that the constant % PDF is somewhere in the first 1024 bytes.
