Apple devices including Macs, iPhones, iPods and iPad support standard wired and wireless networking technologies, but they also utilize custom applications and some special techniques for networking with each other and with non-Apple devices. Apple manufacturers the AirPort line of wireless networking products, and has its own networking protocols, AppleTalk and AFP (Apple Filing Protocol).

This article outlines the struggles that Macs encounter in Windows-dominated workplace environments – and what Mac users can do to improve their network connectivity and remain productive.
I am lead buyers and now look for software that I can have the lead seller to send me into lead management software or crm so I can do some distributions and pricing structure on the middle ....
Have suggestions any lead vendors software I can use?

I have 2 macOS 10.12.5 + HP 2055DN LaserJet + HP OfficeJet Pro 8210 all Ethernet [CAT-5] connected to Apple Airport Extreme.
Ever since I backed up one of the Macs with resident Acronis, a request to print from either Mac returns:
This printer has been paused. Do you want to resume printing?
If you do not want to resume the printing of jobs, you may add this job to the printer for later printing. If you select Resume and the printing of jobs cannot be resumed, this job will automatically be added to the printer.
Cancel / Add to Printer / Resume
The result of all this is NO Printing! Nada, Zilch - nothing. No matter which option I select or how long I wait. Rebooting all except Airport Extreme does not help. Sometimes the 8210 control panel displays ‘Printing’ - it does not.
As some of you may know, I have been trying for some weeks to establish a fixed IP address for this printer.l NO Luck Yet…
When I power up the printer, the IP address is: 10.0.1.134 - before the Acronis backup, I could print from both Macs until the 8210 timed out and I had to reboot the 8210.
As you might expect I am getting desperate…
If it were not that I need the color printer and there is an AC unit in my office window, the 8210 would be a candidate for Defenestration.
A solution would be most welcome !!

Are there great benefits to keeping Bonjour programs on my computer. I do not understand how it benefits me. Is it network sharing?

@Brandon: You're forgetting the market of people that don't want Amazon and Google listening to everything they say all the time :-)

Apple does have a slight advantage there with it's anonymous encrypted IDs.
I fully agree with not wanting unknown companies listening all the time. On the spectrum of who is listening when, Microsoft is the worst with Windows 10, Cortana, and being actively hostile towards privacy issues. After that comes Google who does everything mysteriously, doesn't document much of what they do or give you many controls, and has an interest in gathering as much data as possible to sell to advertisers.
On the other hand Amazon Alexa doesn't listen all the time. They have very clear documentation on exactly what they do when and they let you view or delete your complete voice history at any time. Furthermore there is a physical switch to turn the microphones off. They also have a fully open SDK for both hardware and software. Their main interest is getting you to buy stuff, just like Apple.

Looking to help a friend who uses a mac - I only know windows.
He says it's running really slow. Where would you start to troubleshoot?
Is there an equivalent task manager to show what's running / what's taking processor power?
How do you tell if the hard drive is full? (is it the same as windows - you don't want the hard drive near full because of temp files / etc?
How much RAM would you want on a machine these days? What mac would you say is just too old for casual business use these days? Me, I don't like celerons or any other processors others than i5 or i7 (maybe i3). Yes, core 2 duos run windows, but sevearl year old windows PCs just crawl with all the patches / updates / etc on a windows machine. same for a mac?
And for windows, I'd want 8GB+ RAM. 4 would be the lowest I'd deal with.
thoughts?

Hi All I am trying to set up my DELL MFP Printer C1765nf to scan to my iMac. They are on the same network, the printer is networked using ethernet and the iMac connects wirelessly.
I have created a scan folder called 'Dell' where it is shared and have created an account called 'printer' with a password and read and write permissions. 'Everybody' has read and write permissions. I have gone to System Preferences and enabled file sharing and added the 'Dell' folder and the 'printer' user account. I have also gone into Options and checked 'Share Files and Folders using SMB'.
Next on the web control panel I have entered:
Server type: SMB
Server Address: the IP of my iMac which I got from Terminal
Share Name: Dell
Server Path: Left blank as 'Dell' folder sits on my desktop
Server Port Number: 139
Login Name: printer
Password: <the password for printer>
Everytime I try to scan I get a Login Failed Error on 031-529. Does anyone know what might be wrong?
All help appreciated!

Good morning Geeks!
If you use Hulu, you'll like this news. Hulu now has Live TV! This means for those of us that have cut the cable cord, we now have a legitimate way of watching Live TV for possibly $40. Why possibly?
As of now, the release of this app is before any official announcement of it, so you'll have to stay tuned (yeah I went there) to find out how much it will really cost.
Have a great Wednesday everyone!

Hi, Brian!
I agree. I feel that if Hulu really wants to compete with the cable companies, then they'll need to lower the price to $20 -$15.
Why?
Because most of us already pay $10 to Netflix for our on demand entertainment and don't like the idea that we'lll have to pay the price of a basic cable channel package ($50-$60) to get a live TV stream.
Having the ability to watch my college football teams (when the season starts up again) will be nice though.

Add HP 8210 Printer to Airport Extreme with USB
I have HP OfficeJet 8210 I want to connect to local Airport Extreme with USB and share with other Macs on same Airport Extreme network.
Currently I have to shutdown/restart the printer to get on the local network with IP address 10.0.1.115 which is automatically assigned at printer restart.
How do I assign permanent IP address (1.0.10.115?) to printer so that printer restart not needed and printer will be available to all local network users?

Good morning fellow Apple Geeks!
If you own a first generation Apple Watch, and its battery starts to swell for some reason, Apple has extended out the warranty for you. Despite this being a flaw in the batteries, I get excited when Apple does things like this. To me, it shows the obvious business smarts they have onboard, and that they are willing to do what we call in the military, "the hard right over the easy wrong."
In short, Apple doesn't need to extend the warranty to keep people purchasing their products. However, by doing this they are fortifying the loyalty among their base, and shocking the newcomers who are stepping into the realm of Apple for the first time. That's what happens when you own up to your faults and then try to correct them.
Good on you Apple!

I have an old mid-2009 MacBook Pro which I am currently using to try to access my newly-installed 1Gbps internet connection. Looks like I can't do that, because 100Mbps is the maximum my machine can do, according to several speed tests.
So I'm thinking of connecting an external USB wireless adapter to get as much speed as I can for my Wi-Fi. What make and model is best for this problem? I'm running El Capitan (OSX 10.11.6).
Thanks for all suggestions!

My last post on here detailed a problem with favourites disappearing from the sidebar. I got several very detailed and helpful answers, the main gist of these being move away from the Apple version of Samba to a less buggy version.
Before I undertake this I thought I'd pose an alternative question, that being is there anything like mapped network drives on the MAC? This is what we are using the favourites for, to point at shared folders on a Windows 7 PC acting as a file server.

I've recently installed a pair of iMacs running MAC OS Sierra on a network with a Windows 7 64bit Pro PC acting as a fileserver. I added the various shared folders as favourites on the Finder sidebar however once in a while the favourites vanish and need to be re-added.
At first I thought it was perhaps because the iMacs were connected to the network via WiFi and the connection wasn't established before the computer tried to somehow validate the favourites so I've wired the computers in but it's made no difference.

I have a TWC modem (no hot spot available), airport extreme router, and server. I have two PC with Vista that are connected. I am trying to connect my tablets with Window 7. These tablets were in use before the upgrades of modem, airport, and server. Now, the tablets will not reconnect to the airport/internet. I have performed all window 7 updates. The connections icon shows the network's name but does not allow connection. Also, the connection icon has a yellow star to begin with. I have unplugged- and-plugged the modem and airport too. My public network is connect on these tablets.
Anyone know of a good site for online training. I am trying to get the Apple 10.12 certification. Also I am in Indianapolis and it looks like there are no testing centers here. The closest testing center is in Chicago. Is this true? Any advice on Apple Certs would be greatly appreciated.
half our computers are now macs. Should we update our Windows server?
We are moving from an Apple server with RAID to a Windows server with RAID and I am wondering what the best way is to do this. I can just copy the folders over to the Windows but then I cannot see how to apply any sharing or permissions once the Mac file is on the Windows side.
Thank you for any help.

Dear Experts,
I have a file server (running Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard with SP1) on our network with 3 drives, C, F, G, and have most of the shared data on F and G drives. Using MacBook (OS v. 10.11.3), I am able to connect to server via IP address, and able to see all shared folders.
However, when I am away from the network, using Cisco VPN IPSec connection, it is able to see Public folder on C drive, but not the rest. It also sees NAS storage on the network, but I need to have F and G drives on the file server for the Mac users. What do I need to do?
Please advise.
