  • Name: Can be anything you want here.

  • MAC: Windows: Go to START, RUN, CMD, and type IPCONFIG /ALL. Find the PHYSICAL ADDRESS
              for the ethernet adapter.
             
              Mac OS X: System Preferences -> Network -> Ethernet -> Configure ->Ethernet -> Ethernet ID
             
              Enter this address in the format xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx

  • Host: Enter the IP address assigned to your computer by your ISP or a DNS name if you have one set up.
    To see your WAN IP address, go to http://checkip.dyndns.org. If you have a dynamic IP and your router supports dyndns.org then create an accout by Clicking here

  • Port: Usually you use port 7. You'll have to login to your router and forward the incoming requests for port 7 (UDP) to the IP address of the computer you want to turn on.

  • LAN Broadcast: If your phone is connected to the same network the computer is on, turn LAN Broadcast ON. If you are using Edge on your phone or are connected to a different network, turn this setting OFF.

In order for this to work via the internet your router needs to be able to foward the magic packet from a port (e.g. 7 UDP) to the LAN IP of the computer you want to wake up.

Also it only works using an ethernet cable, it will NOT work through a wireless card on the computer
you want to wake up!

Extract Pages from PDF
Written by Sergio Rodrigues   
Saturday, 12 April 2008

An Automator Workflow that uses the same script as the
Apple "Extract odd and even pages" but extracts all pages from one
PDF as individual PDF's.

The only thing it requires is that you enter how many pages you want to extract

The individual PDFs will then appear on the current logged-in user's desktop as Output-1.pdf...2...3..4...

Great as a finder plugin!
File -> Save As Plug-in.. Then control click -> Automator -> Extract Pages From PDF... (or what you called it) on a PDF to extract the pages
