Re: Lining up for WWDC

Pretty dodgy connectivity unfortunately, and don't know how long my PowerBook's battery will last, so we'll see! (I can switch to my wifi PDA when the AlBook dies though.) Ha - just had a TV camera come past filming us all sitting on the carpet waiting to get in. :-) -Mart -

Lining up for WWDC

Well I'm lining up waiting to go into WWDC - the time is 8am (at least it was when I started trying to send this email - it's 8.33am now and I still can't get a connection long enough to send this email) so at least 2hrs before we can get in. An NBC TV broadcast van is already set up on the corner

yes machine to machine wireless connections are possible, its called ad-hoc networking and works on the same principle as joining 2 wireless Ap's together cheers Nat On 07/08/2006, at 11:04 PM, Greg Pennefather wrote: They certainly can talk - even to a PC. Same drill, create network et

They certainly can talk - even to a PC. Same drill, create network etc. I've done this with a PC, even to share an Internet connection. Cheers Greg > From: Reg Whitely <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Date: Mon, 7 Aug 2006 19:21:39 +0800 > To: WAMUG Mailing List > Subject: Re: XP to OSX via wireless? >

Check out iBackup. It has some nice features like backing up system and application preferences. I've used it for a while now and the developer is always updating. Available on Versiontracker Cheers Greg > From: Michael Hawkins <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> > Date: Mon, 07 Aug 2006 21:13:35 +0800 > To

Re: XP to OSX via wireless?

Mike, You need a wireless base station. Your laptop and iMac can then (assuming they both have wireless cards) connect to it. It doesn't really matter what make/model the PCs/laptops are, only that they have wireless cards that can connect to your base station. This would be 802.11b or

Hi, You can make Radar submissions at http://bugreporter.apple.com (you need at least an Apple ID, or possibly a developer connection ID, to log in). In a sense, if you're lucky, your bug will get marked as a duplicate and you know at least they're onto it ;-) I'm not sure how an iPod issue is cl

Re: iPod Nano Problem (self solved with a bug report query)

Hi I restored the Nano with an old version of the iPod Updater software and that fixed the problem (just to check I restored with new version and problem returned). There must be a flaw with the latest updater. Does anyone know the most effective way to report these issues to Apple? T

XP to OSX via wireless?

Hi Guys, Has anyone ever had luck making an XP ibm laptop talk to dual intel imac via wireless? Can one wireless talk to another that easily? Or do I really need to go via a wireless modem/hub. Has anyone any experience of this? Oh, the main reason I'm not using ethernet is that it's already

Re: Problem that plagues:

Tom It may be that your cables are marginal and that they will work with one switch and not another. A few things to try; 1. Set your Macs to use 10Mb/s half duplex Ethernet in the Network Preferences for Built in Ethernet and on the Ethernet tab. This will give them the best chance of working
