After Software Update 2007-004 airport card stopped working after wakeup

Hi,
I have a powerbook G4 - DVI running 10.3.9. After I have installed Software Update 2007-003, when my computer goes to sleep and then wakes up, airport card stops working. I had to open the back of the computer, unplug and plug the airport card, then it starts working again. But next time the computer goes to sleep, it stops working again.
Does anyone have a similar problem? Any work arounds?
Thanks in advance.
Also following is the logs from Software Update. Looks suspicious:

  • After Service, Airport card stops working randomly on macbook pro 17" early 2009

    Hi,
    So after the last time my computer was serviced, the airport card stops working randomly on moving the screen.
    Upons restarting the computer, it sometimes says wi-fi hardware not installed. Then, if I move my machine around,
    lift it up, turn it around, place it back on the table and restart it, it works again. I don't understand this.
    And all this started happening the moment my warranty ran out. Extremely frustrating!!

    It may be possible that one of the following may be the issue:
    The internal AirPort Extreme card is not seated properly.
    The internal Wi-Fi antenna connector is not seated properly in the AirPort Extreme card.
    The internal AirPort Extreme card's connector is faulty or damaged.
    The internal AirPort Extreme card is faulty.
    To get an idea on how the Extreme card is installed, please check out the following iFixit article.

  • Airport Problems after Security Update 2007-004

    Ever since I've installed Security Update 2007-004 my Airport connection has been dropping about every 15 to 30 minutes. Sometimes Airport will stay connected but will stop working until I renew my DHCP lease (I get the same IP though). When it drops I click on the Airport icon to reconnect but my network doesn't always show up. Sometimes I have to turn Airport off and back on again to make it show up, and a few times I've had to reset my computer to make it show up.
    I have a MacBook Pro with an 802.11n card. I'm using two different routers; one at work, and one at home. The work router is a Linksys N router while the one at home is a Linksys G router.
    I've tried all the tricks. Repairing Permissions, deleting the extension caches, installing the standalone updater, but nothing is working.

  • Mail (and Safari) won't open after Security Update 2007-004

    I have a PowerBook G4 running 10.3.9. The machine was running fine (I was checking mail, browsing the web) when my weekly scheduled update opened. Per it's suggestion, I installed Security Update 2007-004.
    Upon restart, both Mail and Safari will NOT open. The icon for each on the dock simply "bounces" once when clicked then nothing else. Has anyone else experienced anything similar? Any thoughts on a fix?

    Installing a system update while you continue using the computer as if nothing was going on there is a really bad idea.
    Verify/repair the startup disk (not just permissions), as described here:
    The Repair functions of Disk Utility: what's it all about?
    After having fixed all the filesystem issues, if any, reinstall the Security Update, which may not have been installed properly. It may also be necessary to reinstall the Combo Update for the type of computer and the version of Mac OS X you’re using, unless this is the version of Mac OS X that came with the computer:
    Mac OS X 10.3.9 Combo Update
    Take a look at the following articles for guidelines on how to properly install system updates:
    Troubleshooting installation and software updates
    Installing software updates
    Basically, you should verify/repair the startup disk before installing the update, no applications should be running while installing it, and you may experience unexpected results if you have third-party system software modifications (not normal applications) installed.

  • Latest Apple Software Update causes 'No Airport card installed' error

    Hi,
    I accepted the Software Update released 05Apr08 and rebooted. Following the reboot my MacBook Air now says 'no airport card installed' and I can't get the MacBook to 're-recognize' the card.
    I have used the airport card to access many different wireless networks prior to this update with no issues.
    All advice accepted gratefully.
    Thanks.

    I'm having the same problem with a brand new Macbook Air I picked up on Tuesday. When I got it home I updated all software to latest, and didn't have any issues...
    Sometime on Thursday, however, after waking from sleep the airport card reported it is off, and no amount of attempting to turn it on again would successfully do so. After a restart, the computer reported no Airport card is installed at all. I had to shut down the computer and turn it back on before the airport card was recognized (and work) again. This is now the case every time the computer is put to sleep. Occasionally after I do this, the network will be incredibly slow, something like dialup speeds.
    First I tried resetting the PMU (http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=14449), but that didn't work. Then I reset the PRAM and NVRAM (http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=2238), which worked for only about a day. Now here I am again with the same issue, and an appointment for the genius bar at 5pm tonight.

  • Prey game not launching after Security Update 2007-004

    After applying Apple Security Update 2007-004, Prey (Mac version) is not launching and continuously crashes on my computer. I have uninstalled all game files and reinstalled the game from the original DVD but with no success. Repairing disc permissions, updating prebindings and other usual maintainence meaures are unfortunately not helping. I have an external USB hard disc running Mac OS 10.4.9 without the Security Update applied and Prey works properly when my computer boots up from this external hard drive. It is therefore apparent that Apple Security Update 2007-004 has most probably caused Prey to become non-functional as prior to this the game was working without any problems whatsoever.
    Has anyone else expereinced this problem and are there any suggestions?
    Any advice is greatly appreciated.

    Contact the game author's site and report it so they can update it.

  • After software Update (2006-07), airport can not connect to the router

    Hi,
    I installed the software update 2006-07. Afterwards the airport extreme can not connect to the router anymore (NETGEAR). I use a WEP key, but even if I type the WEP Key, the airport does not succeed to the router anymore... I called Apple Care and they wanted that I install the firmware restoration. But even I didn't succeed to install the firmware restoration. On the firmware restoration web page (http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/firmwarerestorationcd12.html) is written that I have to turn on the computer and continue holding down the power button until the LED blinks rapidly followed immediately by a successive series of blinks (3 quick blinks, 3 slow blinks, 3 quick blinks). But after the LED blinks, there is not the successive series of blinks...

  • After Security Update 2010-001: Airport Card Not Detected

    Currently running OS X 10.5.8 on a Mid 2009 MacBook Pro.
    Here's the issue. When I boot up the machine and click the AirPort drop down it tells me that there is no airport card detected. Under system profiler it says the same thing. If I boot to a 10.6 Mac OS Install DVD and open system profiler, the AirPort card is detected. This occurred after a reboot prompted by the Security Update 2010-001.
    So far I have repaired permissions and repaired disk. No fix.
    I reset the PRAM/NVRAM and SMC. No fix.
    I booted to an OS X image on an external drive. No fix.
    I cannot boot to the Apple Hardware Test (D at startup) because my company requires PGP disk encryption. I could decrypt but this would take at least 6 hours (not counting re-encrypting afterwards).
    I tried replacing the extensions. No fix.
    There were no firmware updates applied or any other major OS updates.
    Anyone have anything else I can attempt?

    anyone else see that??
    Yes, Already covered in full here. Strange but no problem.

  • T410 - Sound card stopped working after Lenovo System Update

    hi all!
    yesterday I performed a system update trough the ThinkVantage System Update 3, I chose a complete update (even the BIOS).
    After the update, the sound card is not working anymore: everything in the control panel looks fine, volume is up and all's connected, but no sound is coming out, with the exception of the skype system sound when starting/quitting the application...
    No system restore is possible (it looks disabled by our IT dept), updated the drivers via windows update, but no help.
    Any clue?
    Thanks in advance!

    Why i cannot restore back after update software?

    What does "restore back" mean?
    If it means go backwards to some earlier version of iOS, then Apple has never allowed that.
    If it means reload the contents of your iPhone after doing a software update, you should be able to do that.

    I keep an old wired keyboard and wired mouse for just such emergencies, but that is not helping you now.  There are at least a couple of things that could account for the disappearance of the Bluetooth preference pane.
    There may have been a glitch in the installation.
    The preference pane will not be displayed if the bluetooth transceiver was not detected when the computer started.
    This may seem too obvious, but try completely powering down using the power button on your Mac mini. Wait at least 30 seconds for everything in the mini to fully discharge. While you are waiting to restart, check/replace the batteries in your wireless keyboard and mouse or trackpad. Restart using the power button on the Mac mini.
    If that does not work almost anything else will require the use of a wired keyboard and mouse. For years I have kept a wired keyboard and mouse around for just such an emergency, but in a fit of spring cleaning they were discarded. I ended up having to buy a cheap USB mouse and keyboard at Radio Shack (under $20 for the pair but no command key). But, with any kind of luck, you should be able to borrow a wired keyboard and mouse to get this fixed. Once you have a functioning keyboard and mouse you could...
    Be sure Bluetooth is turned ON in System Preferences

  • 3.1.3 software update has made my iPod stop working correctly

    I have a 2nd generation 16 GB iPod touch. I purchased the 3.1 update when it came out. I had some problems with my iPod after that update, but these problems were resolved when the next update came out (3.1.2 I think). Last week I did the next iPod update-3.1.3. Now my iPod is worse than before. My movies and podcasts won't download from my iTunes library, sometimes when I sync my iPod, it appears there is no music or anything on it (which was what happened after the first update). However when I go into "Settings", it says it has no songs, but all the capacity is all used up. I have to go back in to sync again, but i might have to do this 3 or 4 times before it puts my songs back on my iPod. I'd like to know how to uninstall the last update i did and just go back to the 3.1.2 version. Or if anyone knows what I should do please let me know. Please.....this is so aggravating. I wish I had never done this last update!

    Just plug it into your computer and restore it through iTunes. You can try restore from backup first and, if the problems go away, then you are done. If not, restore again and select restore as new. You can resync all of your content when done.

  • [SOLVED] DVB-C card stopped working (after update?)

    edit: Marked as solved because the problem hasn't occurred for years.
    I have a TechnoTrend TT-Budget C-1501 PCI DVB-C card which used to work fine. Today I installed a bunch of updates including new kernel and now the card doesn't work. Current kernel version is 3.9.2-1-ARCH, as reported by uname -r. I don't remember the kernel version which was installed when the card worked but I installed Arch about a month ago and this was the first upgrade.
    dmesg gives the following information:

    This problem seems to be relatively common with cards containing the TDA10023 chip but I haven't found a proper solution. Is this just a bug or should I adjust something?
    EDIT: I forgot to mention that the card works on Windows.

  • White screen - no startup after software updates 2007-007

    I cannot start my mac g4 following a software upgrade I did last night. There were a series of upgrades. I just get a white screen and it will not boot. In the meantime, I cleared a partition on a second drive on the same machine and installed 10.4 on this and have used it to start up and look at the other drive. I have been backing up files onto one of my external drives but running out of disk space. I am really concerned since all my apps are on the original volume and I don't believe I can just transfer them. Problem is my partition on the drive I set up is also small (about 10gb) so thats not much room for anything more than the os plus a bit. Should I attempt to fix the original volume, should I try an archive and install, some advice really appreciated. Many thanks.

    Hi there. Thanks for your advice. It is not practical to back up everything and I have backups of the files that are important but no one really wants to loose anything when you are confronted with making choices like this.
    That said, I think some responsibility falls on Apple's shoulders to ensure that the older machines will update properly since it appears there are many g4's still in service. I have located another post similar to mine today that indicates this is not isolated to me - which leads me to believe it may just be a bad update.
    Obviously there was some adverse effect from the new software since the system was good until the reboot with the updates. While I shouldn't expect this to occur, I get you're point about being prepared in the event it does. From my perspective, this experience is something that you'd expect from $MS. I have never had this type of experience after using a Mac now for almost 10 years. Worst case was a failing second drive (Maxtor) that I installed - but was able to recover the data using the Carbon Copy app.
    In any case, I appreciate any replies and am hopeful I'll have recovered by the end of the day . Many thanks.
