Re: Apple pulls Airport routers, possible refresh coming

[Tim Kilburn]

Hi,

Limited in which respect?  I've not experienced these sorts of crashes that 
you're speaking of and had much more reliable and better performance than many 
other products.  Have also set numerous ones up in schools where classes of 
students were accessing them without issue and with reasonable performance.  
Interesting that people have differing experiences with similar units.

navi%gating in itunes 12.4

[don bishop]

Just got a macbook which has itunes 12.4 and trying to figure out how to get to 
my music: I click on "my music", but can't seem to locate anything. 
Also, I go to "for you" and only can find one item. 
I assume I'll figure it out eventually, but in the meantime, does anyone have 
any pointers on navigation with voiceover?  

Thanks,

Re: AirPort Firmware 7.6.7/7.7.7 Released

[Tim Kilburn]

Hi Simon,

You could test this scenario with your Express. Use the same instructions I 
suggested for the Extreme configuration.  If it behaves properly, you'd then 
know if it would work with the Extreme.

Hi Simon,
 
Yes, for sure, the Extreme can be set to Bridge mode.  Setting it to Bridge 
mode turns off all DHCP and NAT services so that those can be provided by your 
ISP.  The setting for this is under the Network pane of the Airport Utility.  
The Router mode pop-up menu allows you to choose DHCP & NAT, DHCP Only or Off 
(Bridge Mode).  Normally, just make sure you maintain the wired connection and 
give the Extreme the same SSID as your main router.  This should create a 
Roaming kind of configuration where your devices just connect to the closest 
AP, as long as your ISP's router thing doesn't block this sort of set up.

Hi,
 
The Airport Extreme as opposed to the Express is a much more powerful router.  
Considerably better coverage, better processor for better performance and just 
an all around better unit.  Of course, it's about twice the cost as the Express 
though, but I'd put it up against any $50 router anytime to have it out perform 
those units.  The one drawback is that the Extreme cannot double as an AirPlay 
device like the Express does.  You could, though, turn off the broadcast 
portion of the Express, connect it to the network and use the AirPlay feature 
without the slow-down in network performance.

Only 300 Mb/s, eh?  You lucky sod.  I can about get 68 down, 18 up.  I’m not 
unhappy with that, particularly given that I have such a wonderful ISP, but my 
wouldn’t I give for a proper FTTP rollout.  Perhaps if our neoliberal 
government spent less time navel-gazing about the UK’s laughable position in 
the digital economy and completely unachievable milestones and more building 
high-quality public infrastructure, 300 Mb/s would be entirely achievable.  
Perhaps g.fast?  Anyway, AirPort Express would be fine for such a connection, 
if not for the lack of AC and the generally much slower performance.

Yeah, you can use AirPort as a bridge, if you want.  I do this.  Recommended 
for PPPoE users with baby jumbo support, i.e. most UK ISPs.  With a product 
like the Draytek v130, it’s no longer an absolute necessity to use a (V)DSL 
modem where the modem is also the router.  Hence, I’ve got three devices in my 
setup: the Draytek v130, a Mac Mini as my router (running Linux), and the Time 
Capsule providing the Wi-Fi.  People who are less insane than myself may wish 
to explore other scenarios, but be aware that native IPv6 does not work with 
current AirPort firmware and PPPoE.

[Sabahattin Gucukoglu]

Well I hope it’s not that they’re leaving the market, that’s for sure.  I only 
recently had the dubious honour of setting up a Netgear Wi-Fi extender, and 
wish it had been an AirPort.  A new one is not off the cards for me.

Re: Home Sharing

It’s not an empty library or an ad for Apple Music, is it?  You might have to 
dismiss that.

But definitely, once you’re in a list of your stuff, you should find the

Re: State of PDF accessibility?

[Jonathan Cohn]

Hello,

Does either PDF Pen products take advantage of PDF tags? 

This can generally be determined 
1. Graphics get labeled.
2. Headings are recognised just as on the web.
3. Artefacts are not read.

That third item would be a bit harder to tell, but with tagging of the PDF 
artefacts are ruler lines or other visual items on the page that don't add to 
the content. I believe titles and page numbers in headers are supposed to be 
tagged as artefacts.

Best wishes,

Jonathan

Re: renaming photos again

[Jonathan Cohn]

It is possible to set both description and name using AppleScript. 

Not sure if that would be any help though

I could also get the file path of the photograph from AppleScript, so perhaps 
we could figure out how to sent the photo to Microsoft's AI engine and then 
read back the description. I have never scripted for Safari or HTML/XML .

.
Best wishes,

Jonathan

Re: Home Sharing

Hi,

It sounds like you have everything set correctly.  The difference at the 
moment, is that I have my Music app showing my iTunes in the Cloud purchases.  
That shouldn't really make a difference, but I'll test things some a little 
later and get back to you.

 Simon,
 
 First off, you hit the nail dead on the head with describing all these 
 things.  Great job!
 
 That said, I'm honestly not in the least bit meaning this to be rude, so 
 don't take it as such, but Anders, why in the first place do you feel you 
 need a VPN?  I'm not doubting you in the least, but most people who are 
 either setting up their own VPN server, or are going through a VPN 
 provider generally know what these terms mean.  I'm not saying that you 
 don't need a VPN, please know that up front.  I'm only trying to ascertain 
 the general reason.  You don't have to go into the nitty gritty specifics, 
 but is it work related, or what?  I ask as again, you might not even need 
 a VPN.  Most people who get them do so for an extremely specific reason.

 Hi,
 
 A VPN is virtual Private network,
 
 It is like a tunnel that connects your computer securely to your home 
 network or more commonly to your work place network  through secure 
 protocols
 
 PPTP is a transmition protocol which is used in some VPN connections, it's 
 a more common protocol and if I remember correctly it's widely used in 
 widnows vpn systems as Microsoft have a lot to do with it,
 
 There is also
 L2TP,
 SSH, secure shell, probably another more common one now,
 SSTP, secure socket transfer protocol,
 The later is probably the one I'd look at if I was setting up my own VPN 
 as it requires a certificate as well as log in creds,
 
 There are a number of others but it really depends on what your looking 
 for and how much your willing to pay.

 However what is the difference between a vpn and pptp.
 Is there less security in the later or is it the same as a vpn?

Re: AirPort Firmware 7.6.7/7.7.7 Released

[Sabahattin Gucukoglu]

Only 300 Mb/s, eh?  You lucky sod.  I can about get 68 down, 18 up.  I’m not 
unhappy with that, particularly given that I have such a wonderful ISP, but my 
wouldn’t I give for a proper FTTP rollout.  Perhaps if our neoliberal 
government spent less time navel-gazing about the UK’s laughable position in 
the digital economy and completely unachievable milestones and more building 
high-quality public infrastructure, 300 Mb/s would be entirely achievable.  
Perhaps g.fast?  Anyway, AirPort Express would be fine for such a connection, 
if not for the lack of AC and the generally much slower performance.

Yeah, you can use AirPort as a bridge, if you want.  I do this.  Recommended 
for PPPoE users with baby jumbo support, i.e. most UK ISPs.  With a product 
like the Draytek v130, it’s no longer an absolute necessity to use a (V)DSL 
modem where the modem is also the router.  Hence, I’ve got three devices in my 
setup: the Draytek v130, a Mac Mini as my router (running Linux), and the Time 
Capsule providing the Wi-Fi.  People who are less insane than myself may wish 
to explore other scenarios, but be aware that native IPv6 does not work with 
current AirPort firmware and PPPoE.

Re: Home Sharing

[E.T.]

   I must still not have something set correctly. Everything is on the 
same network, same Apple ID and signed in, iTunes on the Mac is open, 
not using firewall. Home Sharing is on on both Mac and iPhone.


   With Music app open, My Music is selected. Swiping from My Account, 
I get My Music heading, Search. a screen talking about iTunes and then 
My Music tab selected.

Hi,

Figured it out.  It's not a bug, nor a blocked port issue.  They've just changed the way it's 
accessed.  If Home Sharing is set up correctly on your computer and iDevice, then using your 
iPhone, go to the My Music tab, move your finger to the top of the screen where VO announces 
"My Account".  Swipe right a number of times until you hear VO announce "Category, 
Songs, button".  Double-tap on this button then swipe right until you hear Home Sharing.  
Double-tap on it then select the iTunes Library you wish to stream content from.  The Category 
button is kind of centred on the screen closer to the top after the Recently Added section.  It's 
not particularly intuitive since you need to swipe past some songs before you can find it.  Once 
you locate it though, you're good to go.

Re: exporting quicktime movie

[Tim Kilburn]

Hi,

The first three options are HD versions of the movie and are meant for larger 
screens.  The iPod, iPad, Apple TV version is meant for smaller screens 
although the Apple TV does transfer well to big screen TV's.  The iTunes 
version will make it an m4v which is the usual format for iTunes video content. 
 QuickTime usually creates a .mov format movie which is usable by some video 
players on non-Apple products.  Also, know that there is QuickTime for Windows 
for viewing this format of video content.  You may also like to know that there 
are direct to FaceBook and direct to YouTube features in QuickTime found under 
the Share menu.  You'll just need to sign into your FaceBook or YouTube account 
in order that it may share directly to those accounts.

HTH.

Re: Home Sharing

[Sabahattin Gucukoglu]

Yep, Tim has it right.  The trick is the categories selector.  Home Sharing 
will appear only when there is a Home Sharing iTunes library, i.e. iTunes is 
running and Home Sharing was switched on.

Now, if Apple would allow the download of material to an iOS device from a home 
share, that would make it all worthwhile.  But alas …

Hi Donna,

If you have a large media collection on your Mac that just won't fit on your 
iPhone, and if the majority of this media is not purchased so not available in 
iCloud without an Apple Music or iTunes Match subscription, then streaming 
music from your Mac through your iPhone may be desirable.

Re: Home Sharing

[Tim Kilburn]

Hi,

Figured it out.  It's not a bug, nor a blocked port issue.  They've just 
changed the way it's accessed.  If Home Sharing is set up correctly on your 
computer and iDevice, then using your iPhone, go to the My Music tab, move your 
finger to the top of the screen where VO announces "My Account".  Swipe right a 
number of times until you hear VO announce "Category, Songs, button".  
Double-tap on this button then swipe right until you hear Home Sharing.  
Double-tap on it then select the iTunes Library you wish to stream content 
from.  The Category button is kind of centred on the screen closer to the top 
after the Recently Added section.  It's not particularly intuitive since you 
need to swipe past some songs before you can find it.  Once you locate it 
though, you're good to go.

Re: AirPort Firmware 7.6.7/7.7.7 Released

[Tim Kilburn]

Hi Simon,

Yes, for sure, the Extreme can be set to Bridge mode.  Setting it to Bridge 
mode turns off all DHCP and NAT services so that those can be provided by your 
ISP.  The setting for this is under the Network pane of the Airport Utility.  
The Router mode pop-up menu allows you to choose DHCP & NAT, DHCP Only or Off 
(Bridge Mode).  Normally, just make sure you maintain the wired connection and 
give the Extreme the same SSID as your main router.  This should create a 
Roaming kind of configuration where your devices just connect to the closest 
AP, as long as your ISP's router thing doesn't block this sort of set up.

Hi,
 
The Airport Extreme as opposed to the Express is a much more powerful router.  
Considerably better coverage, better processor for better performance and just 
an all around better unit.  Of course, it's about twice the cost as the Express 
though, but I'd put it up against any $50 router anytime to have it out perform 
those units.  The one drawback is that the Extreme cannot double as an AirPlay 
device like the Express does.  You could, though, turn off the broadcast 
portion of the Express, connect it to the network and use the AirPlay feature 
without the slow-down in network performance.

Simon, you don’t get that much more than 100 over N. You can but it’s not the 
raw data rate either.  Also, what’s your uplink speed to the network.  You’re 
in a pretty advanced part of the world I bet so it may be more than 100.  Good

Apple pulls Airport routers, possible refresh coming

[Alex Hall]

Hi all,
Just FYI, don't buy an Airport router right now. Apple pulled them from its 
retail and online stores yesterday, and with WWDC just a couple weeks away, the 
chances are high that this indicates a refresh. The below article also notes 
that it could be due to changing regulations, but even if that's the case, 
Apple will have to update the routers to comply with said regulations, or get 
out of the router market. If you're looking into an Airport, hold off until 
WWDC, I'd say.

Multiconvert

[Ben J. Bloomgren]

Hi all,


Back in the day, I used to use a very sweet app called Multiconvert. It 
converted just about everything. It rivaled 
http://www.onlineconversion.com if that tells you anything. Well, as far 
as I can tell, that app has been deprecated and isn't available anymore. 
What do you use for conversions, such as currencies, mass, weight, force 
etc.?

Yeah, I’m not getting gigabit,

As for getting a new router, yeah that’s a great Idea however the provider 
isn’t happy about using a router that is not supported by them, guess they 
don’t have control over it and can’t block things like they currently can.

I’m looking at changing currently to another provider

So, if you have true gigabit to your home and you’re only getting 300 megabits 
or so you either have a fractional gigabit like 300 megabits which is possible 
or you have a choke point which is probable.  Definitely clear the 100 megabit

Simon, you don’t get that much more than 100 over N. You can but it’s not the

in a pretty advanced part of the world I bet so it may be more than 100.  Good

RE: AirPort Firmware 7.6.7/7.7.7 Released

Hi Tim,

The extreme is a full on router / wifi device,

Can you use it as an access point without the routing functionality

Hi,

The Airport Extreme as opposed to the Express is a much more powerful router.  
Considerably better coverage, better processor for better performance and just 
an all around better unit.  Of course, it's about twice the cost as the Express 
though, but I'd put it up against any $50 router anytime to have it out perform 
those units.  The one drawback is that the Extreme cannot double as an AirPlay 
device like the Express does.  You could, though, turn off the broadcast 
portion of the Express, connect it to the network and use the AirPlay feature 
without the slow-down in network performance.

Later...

Well, it looks from reports like many of the changes were overdue bug fixes: an 
issue with DHCPv6 and Cox, and an issue with clients being separated from one 
another which broke AirPlay.  Not sure how it took this long, but glad it’s
