I finally got it to work somehow trying a dozen different things. I guess the
ethernet cable will always have to be plugged into the Time Capsule, but it does
do its work wirelessly backing up my MB Air. Thanks for your response.

AFAIK, and I have an AppleTV, it is not a document or file reader. It is for streaming capabilities. If you desire to view your MBP on your TV, I suggest an DVI to HDMI cable with audio capabilities.

Does anyone have any experience using Apple TV with a MBP? I can get Youtube videos and stuff from iTunes to show on my TV screen through Apple TV but I want to be able to read documents etc which are on my MBP, on my TV. Can this be done?

I have a new MacBook Air running Lion. I am trying to get my Time Capsule working with it but Airport is not seeing any Airport devices. the WiFi works perfectly as does my ATT High Sierra wireless card when it is connected. The WiFi sees a lot of other modems from nearby houses, but the Airport cannot see anything. Ideas?

If you are going to be in the San Francisco Bay Area between January 26 and 28, and you don't already have plans to attend the Macworld iWorld expo, this may change your mind. Group member Bernard Yin has generously pointed me towards an offer from his associates here..

http://www.campuscircle.com/coupons/

Use the provided "Source Code" for a free Exhibits Only registration to the show. That gets you in to all of the main vendor booths and food areas. It just doesn't include any of the special talks or presentations.

If you see me wandering from booth to booth, be sure to say "hi"!

It depends on the file system; I think Linux can read/write HFS+ but not sure.

A common format ext3 can't be, but go find OSXFuse and install it. I believe it will work with that format.

Google Chrome calls it "incognito mode"....same as private browsing.
When you don't want your website visits or downloads to be recorded in your browsing and download histories, you can browse in incognito mode. In addition, any cookies created while in incognito mode are deleted after you close the incognito window.     Karen

Private browsing can be found in the drop down menu underneath the word "Safari."

Google Chrome is a PITA when it comes to Quicktime. Whenever I try to run a QT clip on a website, an alert pops up that says, "Quicktime needs your permission to run on this site." It then offers me a choice to run this once, or anytime on this site. I've been to the online help and the Plugins Management page, and see no option to allow Quicktime to run anywhere, anytime, an action of which every other browser on the green hills of Earth is capable. What am I missing?

Also - is there a good autofill plugin for Firefox? By which I mean one that can read what is already in the Mac keychain and not require me to fill in every dang password first time around?

Thanks for all.
