Hi! This is so strange i have to ask about it here. I hope someone can clear things out for me. I have a 100mbps cable internet connection. The cable modem is configured just to be a modem and not a router. I have connected one of my airport express via ethernet to the modem and the two other airp

Hello, I’ve seen this before. If you’re not using it, try turning off Bluetooth whenever you’re not using it, and try testing again. As strange as it sounds, it works. At least, it did for me. So, hopefully, if you do this on all your devices you are having problems with, this will fix it for yo

Hello, Is the Mac hard wired or is that too wirelessly connected. I’d expect a hard wired device to be more efficient. Gena > On 2 Feb 2016, at 11:02, Anders Holmberg wrote: > > Hi! > This is so strange i have to ask about it here. > I hope someone can clear things out for me. > I have a 100m

What type of iPhone is this? What band are you using 2.4 or ughz and is this 802.11N or AC or B/G? Would like to know a bit more about the setup. The airports you’re using are very capable across bands so it depends on the specific iPhone you have. Since it’s apple all the way though I would

Could be interference but you’d think your Mac would be impacted also depending if they are in similar places in the house. I’m leaning towards interference but the Mac is making me question that. > On Feb 2, 2016, at 10:08 AM, Anders Holmberg wrote: > > Hi! > I have an Iphone 6 S so its the l

You can’t use internet explorer with out security risks.:) One of the benefits of using a VM is you can contain the damage so it’s a little less critical. Now if this is your VM you do all your banking from and such I wouldn’t recommend it but the advantage of VMs is you can spin up all you ne

Re: text messages on the mac

If you have a hearing loss, you may not hear it. But, iMessage does give an ascending sort of buzz tone, kind of sounding like a child's toy. If you receive a message while you're in iMessage, you'll get the reverse, which is the descending buzzing tone. Ben - Original Message - From:

Being that it's a bird's eye view, is it something that's visual/graphical? If that be the case, then Voiceover would probably not be able to handle it, making the need of that message clear. Ben - Original Message - From: "M. Taylor" To: Sent: Tuesday, February 02, 2016 13:47 Subje

OK, a few things. I've not admittedly been following this thread too closely, but as for the send voice button, if you hit vo+space on it, then speak. When done, VO+Space again to stop recording. Then, navigate to the send button, and hit vo+Space. If you're sending just a normal text base

No Ben. Mark is on to something here. This is definitely a very valid bug. Visually, the tab is there, but when he says quote: bird eye's view, he doesn't mean like a map view. He's using the term more loosely to mean you can quickly home in on different parts of the world having events. Don
