3.5G symbol no longer appearing 3 network - HELP

Hi all,
For my sins and my stupidity I have a Nokia 6700.. I won't bore you with the other issues I have with this phone... NOKIA PLEASE HELP!!
Well here goes.......
I have had my 6700 for about 3 months now I am on the 3 network.. For the first couple of months I was getting a great internet signal with the 3.5G symbol and a little up arrow appearing in the top left of the screen.. Internet was very quick.. I have noticed that in the last 2 weeks I no longer get this symbol appearing but just the 3G one and my internet speed has dropped accordingly. Does anyone know why this might be or if anyone else has noticed a similar issue on 3??? 3 are about as much help as a chocolate teacup, their support is attrocious!!
Thanks in advance for any help you can offer.

It's a purely a network issue.  It's likely to be a transmitter fault in that area so it's unable to provide HSDPA (3.5g). It happened to me earlier this year just before I told 3 where to stick their contract.
I also had issues with 3 where SMS messages weren't being delivered to me until many hours later or until the same person sent another message. 
I'm so glad I never actually bought a 3 branded phone as I hate they way they customise, cripple and prevent people from updating the firmware until 3 decide that people can. 
I'm now a very happy virgin mobile customer

  • My Apple TV can no longer find my network - help?

    I've been using my apple tv for a LONG tme successfully until tonight.
    It can no longer find my network (airport network)!
    Resetting/restarting the apple tv has not helped. I can't update anything because it can't connect to the internet (even though my computer and phones and even roku are connecting just fine).
    I've tried restarting everything (airport, internet box, apple tv) as well as plugging and unplugging things...
    I had noticed a few times it was having trouble connecting but restarting seemed to fix it. My apple tv is from last year so it's not old.
    Any suggestions?

  • Airport symbol no longer appears

    When I select "Airport" in System Profiler I get info about the software installed but nothing about the Airport card.  Also the airport symbol disappeared from the menu bar at the top of my desktop.  Do I have to replace the airport card or could there be another reason for the loss of airport capability? 

    Ok, an update. AE and one of the expresses have now show up but wireless is almost as slow as dial-up, whereas hard lines from the AE are hitting the same speeds as directly plugging into the Verizon router. The newest Airport Express still after a day refuses to show up on the Airport Utility. I'm now on hold for Apple care as this one is less than 90 days old.
    Also, previous to this "crash" I had my network set up as a WDS network but when I went to the A. Utility Help they showed another way to setup as...
    To extend the range of an 802.11n network:
    Open AirPort Utility and select the base station or the Time Capsule that will connect to the Internet.
    Click Manual Setup. Enter the base station password if necessary.
    Click AirPort in the toolbar, and then click Wireless.
    Choose “Create a wireless network” from the Wireless Mode pop-up menu, and then select the “Allow this network to be extended” checkbox.
    Next, select the device that will extend this network, and then click Manual Setup. Enter the password if necessary.
    Choose “Extend a wireless network” from the Wireless Mode pop-up menu, and then choose the network you want to extend from the Network Name pop-up menu.
    Enter the network and device password if necessary.
    Is this new configuration causing a problem?

  • IPOD no longer appears in Itunes

    My Ipod is no longer appearing in Itunes. Everything was working fine last week, then all of sudden, I am no longer able to see my Ipod in Itunes.
    The Ipod is running the latest firmware. It was updated with the latest Updater. Itunes is the latest version.
    Unplugging, replugging does not work.
    The Ipod battery is 100 % charged.
    The ipod does not even appear in My Computer.
    The Ipod works fine with existing songs that are downloaded on it.
    The Ipod was working fine last week on the same computer. For the longest time, it was not working. Last week it worked. This week it no longer works. What is going on here?
    Why would the ipod all of a sudden stop working with Itunes on my computer?
    Cheers,

    A USB flash drive was added to my computer.
    okay, let's check on this possibility then (there's also a link to it in one of the articles that Mr Bond referenced):
    Windows confuses iPod with network drive and may keep iPod from mounting or songs may seem to disappear
    what i'm thinking here is that it is possible that you've usually got a drive letter confusion. (so your PC doesn't recognise the ipod). but when that drive was added, it changed around the drive letter assignments. so you stopped having the drive letter confusion with the ipod (and you could recognise it again). when it was taken back off the system, the drive letter assignments changed again. so you went back to having the drive letter confusion problem with the ipod.

  • Apple TV (1st Gen) no longer appears in iTunes 10.

    Hi there, my Apple TV (1st Gen) no longer appears in itunes 10.
    I have looked at as many of the forums as I can and I have followed all the advice to reset Apple TV, router and PC. No joy. I have then restored Apple TV, uninstalled and reinstalled itunes, checked router ports etc. but still no joy.
    The Apple TV is connected to my network just fine (I can download movie trailers etc.), my PC is connected to the network just fine (itunes store opens and I can shop). However, the Apple TV does not appear in the devices list on the LHS of the itunes window, there is no Apple TV tab in preferences and I cannot locate my library (not listed) on the Apple TV.
    Basically I have tried everything I can find to try to solve this, but no joy. Please can someone help me as this is driving me crazy?

    If you've reset AppleTv, have you actually set up the sync/share computer again?
    If not go to Settings>Computers and add a new library - a 5 digit code will appear for you to enter in itunes.
    The top computer entry in the list syncs and streams, the others only stream.  If you plan to purchase anything make sure you have an entry for sync/stream as streaming only libraries may not transfer AppletV purchases.

  • 1st Generation Apple TV No Longer Appears as Device

    Since the latest iTunes update, my Apple TV no longer appears as a device in iTunes on my Mac Pro even though it does on my MacBook despite both are completely up to date and are running on the same network (AirPort Extreme Dual Band) with EXACTLY the same network and firewall settings.
    I have wiped and reinstalled the Apple TV SW and iTunes on the Mac to no avail. Since the Mac I use to host my Apple TV content is on my Mac Pro this is a problem.

    I'm in the same boat.  My Mac Pro iTunes does not show my AppleTV (1st Gen) in the devices, nor is there an AppleTV icon in the Preferences anymore.  Here's the wierd thing... My MacBook Pro, on the same network, and same iTunes version, shows the AppleTV in Preferences.  But not in devices because it is "tied" to my Mac Pro's iTunes.
    Curious oddity....

  • Safari 8.0 no longer appears to cache Web pages.

    Since upgrading to Yosemite, Safari no longer appears to cache anything. Pages reload each and every time a page change is made. It affects both backwards or forwards changes and does not matter if I use the arrow buttons in Safari or swipe across the MagicPad.
    As suggested on various other help sites;
    I have removed all extensions from Safari 
    I have put Safari into single process mode
    I temporarily removed the Cache folder from the Library so that Safari created a new one when it was restarted
    None of the above had any effect, the issue remains.
    Is anyone else experiencing this issue or knows how to fix it?

    Hi Paul and Welcome to Apple Discussions
    Do you have a similar fix for slow Safari 4.0.3 on an iBook G4 running OS X.4.11?
    Go to the System Preferences>Network panel
    -Location - set up a personal location by clicking on the location drop down menu and selecting "add a location". Use a name familiar to you. Once established, select "apply".
    -Next, click on the "Show" drop down menu and select Network Port Configurations. Depending on whether you use Ethernet or Airport (wireless) for your setup: Only Ethernet or Airport ought to be checked. Move it to the top of the list (you can drag it). Select "apply". Everything else ought to be unchecked unless you use a Bluetooth device.
    -Back to the "Show" menu, select either "Ethernet" or "Airport" (whichever applies to you). Click on the TCP panel. There, enter (copy/paste on separate lines) 208.67.222.222 and 208.67.220.220 in the DNS servers box - these are Opensource DNS codes.
    When done, select OK, then "apply"
    Last step: In the Finder, go to your Utilities folder and select "Terminal". Once the screen is open copy/paste lookupd -flushcache and press return. This clears out the DNS cache. Once done, quit Terminal.
    Restart Safari
    In Safari Menu>Reset Safari. Select "empty the cache", then reset.

  • After updating to iOS 7 the contact photos no longer appear when I receive a call. How can I get them to show again?

    After updating to iOS 7 the contact photos no longer appear when I receive a call. How can I get them to show again?

    I'm having the identical problem on my iPhone 4 after upgrading to IOS 7--no ability to update apps or download new apps.  Here is what Apple tech support emailed to me:
    I understand that you are unable to download or update applications after updating iOS7 on your iTunes. I know you must be eager to get this resolved and I will be happy to help you today.
    ... to help you better with this issue I would request you to please try this steps given below to resolve your issue.
    Please follow this steps:
    1) Double tap the home button
    2) Hold down on an icon
    3) Tap the red "X" on iTunes, and the App Store.
    4) Tap Settings > Store > Tap your Apple ID, and choose sign out
    5) Tap Settings
    6) Tap General
    7) Tap Reset
    8) Tap Network Settings
    Once it has been closed with multi-tasking, and you have rebooted the device in the network settings reset, please sign in, and try again. 
      Howevr, if you are facing the same issue than for this issue, you may need to call our AppleCare technical support team. A technical Advisor will be able to tell you about Apple's complimentary and fee-based support. The technical Advisor can also assist you in determining what option might be most helpful to you in this case.
    Mildly amusing that the instructions for force-closing a program are the IOS 6 instructions, which do not work on IOS 7. 
    Otherwise I'm having a little success with this.  Some apps (not all) are updating. It seems that a few more apps update each time I go through the process (close everything, sign out, and either reset or reboot, then go to the app store, sign in and try to update all).  So far it has been a very lengthy, iterative process. 

  • Some notes no longer appear under Reminders Notes in Mail

    On upgrading to Snow Leopard it appears that around 50% of my notes no longer appear under the Reminders>Notes heading in the Mail sidebar.
    I keep various notes in other folders – such as passwords/login details in their own specific folder – but in Mail on OS X 10.5 notes, regardless of where I'd moved them to, would all also appear in the Reminders>Notes section.
    In 10.6 this no longer seems to be the case. Is anyone else also experiencing this? Is this change intentional? is it a bug? or is there a preference I have not been able to find to control this behavior?

    Reese,
    do you have LabVIEW installed on a network drive or is your LabVIEW Data folder write protected or is your LabVIEW data folder on a network drive?
    I can't think of another reason why the icon editor doesn't show any glyphs/templates.
    However, I have attached two zip files. One contains the glyphs and the other one the templates that are installed by default.
    If you go ahead and unzip those to
    C:\Documents and Settings\*** FILL IN YOUR WORKSPACE HERE ***\My Documents\LabVIEW Data
    (Unzipping both should result in two new folders withint the LabVIEW Data folder. One is called Glyphs and the other one Icon Templates
    you will see the glyphs and the templates the next time the icon editor is launched.
    Sorry for the inconvenience.
    Pls let me know if that works for you.
    Thanks,
    Tom

  • AirPlay no longer appears on iPad3, anyone know why?

    AirPlay no longer appears on my ipad3 as an option when videos are being played. Does anyone have any suggestions? All my software versions on Apple TV and iPad3 are current. Both are connected to the network, and AirPlay is turned on in Apple TV.  Thanks

    After trying a few things I reset my router, checked a video and voila, the airplay icon is back. I would suggest anyone that has this problem, just reset your router.

  • HT5022 After setting up, no longer appears in either version of Airport but DOES WORK! Why?

    After setting up, no longer appears in either version of Airport but DOES WORK! Why?

    Hey Bob...
    So far, using wireless only on the AirPort Extreme... (No Ethernet Devices or USB connected)
    Yes to "create a wireless network".
    My Cable Modem is the latest Motorola Docis 3, The APE is M8799LL/A Model A1034
    Yes both versions...
    More detail.... If I reset the APE, it shows up just fine in 5.6.
    I  go through configuration. I choose APE name, new wireless network, enter Wireless Network name and password.
    Set for WPA.
    Anyway, Airport 5.6 claims success and restarts APE. Never finds it again, (unless I reset it again. Went thorugh this process 3 times with same results... )
    Anyway. the utility cannot "see" APE but my devices, (iPads, iPods, iPhone, Macbooks, Android devices as well), All can see APE and connect to it.
    So, NOT major issue except that in order to make ANY changes to the APE, I must do a reset..
    It's just WEIRD!    

  • The padlock symbol isn't appearing when I proceed to enter my credit card details

    I've noticed since updating firefox to the current version, the secure padlock symbol isn't appearing when I purchase something online. I have made one transaction like this but am now concerned my details aren't safe! Please could you advise me

    In Firefox 4 you no longer have the Status bar that showed the padlock in previous Firefox versions.<br />
    The padlock only shows that there is a secure connection and doesn't guarantee that you are connected to the right server.<br />
    So you might still be connected to the wrong server if you make a typo in the URL and someone has claimed that mistyped URL.<br />
    The functionality of the padlock has been replaced by the [[Site Identity Button]] on the left end of the location bar.<br />

  • HT204291 Trouble Mirroring-Mirror Button No Longer Appears

    I recently have been experiencing problems mirroring my ipad (4th gen) and my Apple TV (3rd gen).Over the last few months I have been able to mirror successfully; however, recently the mirror button no longer appears on the ipad. I first thought the two devices might not be on the same WIFI, but I have checked and they are on the same one (I even checked all the information on the wireless and they both match.) I thought maybe they needed updating, nope, they are both as currently updated as possible. I additionally thought airplay was turned off on either device, but I have checked both and they are both turned on and able to airplay. I have restarted both devices and even unplugged the apple TV. I also tried rejoining the same WIFI with both devices. Still no luck. I have checked to make sure that the ipad is not thinking it is airplaying to some other devices, as I have speakers that it can airplay to as well. Weirdly enough the ipad can communicate and connect through airplay with the speakers, but still does not pick up the apple TV. Does anyone out there have any ideas?
    Cheers

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Try the following steps, check whether things are working after each step where appropriate, before trying the next.
    Check AirPlay is turned on on the Apple TV (turn it off and on if it already is)
    Check that both devices are on the same network (Settings > Wifi, on the mobile device and Settings > General > Network, on the Apple TV).
    Restart the Apple TV (Settings > General > Restart).
    Restart the Apple TV by removing ALL the cables for 30 seconds.
    Restart your router.
    Restart your mobile device.

  • Question:  ipod no longer appears in itunes and my computer.

    iPod Nano no longer appears in iTunes or in my computer. Songs are there but the device is not recognized

    Okay. I was going to say....
    What have you tried so far in terms of troubleshooting this issue?  Are you plugging the iPod into a high powered USB 2.0 port on the back of your PC? Have you tried a different USB cable?
    What happens if you try to reset the device with it still connected to the PC?

    Has this iPod ever worked on this PC or is this the first time you have time you have tried connecting it?
