Help please. Wifi problems..

Sp recently after upgrading to OSX Lion, my macbook pro 15" 2010 model has been losing its Wifi abilities. Sometimes it doesnt detect my router, it wont load pages, it drops out of the network. Overall its a complete mess. All the other computers in the house are perfectly fine. Though my macbook is the only one with Lion installed. Please, if anyone has a solution it would greatly be appreciated.

I'd been having this problem since upgrading to Lion and was getting very frustrated.  Not only after sleep but during use of the laptop the wifi would drop out and I would have to do as you say.  This was happening all the time.  I googled to find a solution and one that I tried was to unplug our router and wait 15 seconds, then plug in and turn on.  Wait for it to go through it's process, then restart your laptop.  Since I did this yesterday I've no longer had the problem even after sleep mode.  I hope it continues.

  • Help please - template problems

    2 questions please - actually:
    1.  Dreamweaver CS4... I think my template functionality has somehow become corrupted.  When I try to create new templates (regardless of which site I'm trying it within), they look ok.  But when I then try to create a new html page using the template, it garbles the format.  I tried it every way I can think of... I tried the 2 column fixed, the 3 column hybrid, etc. etc.  And I tried them as is in dreamweaver (without adding any formatting or anything... just create a new, save it, and then create a new page using the tempalte).  Still the same garbled end results. (it's keeping the spry menu bar, but loses the columnar format and places them on top of each other)
    Interestingly, it's only happening with new templates. (what started this was that I have a 2 column template I'm using, and I want to switch to a 3 column).  As long as I keep using the existing format with the existing templates, the new pages are ok.
    I tried re-installing dreamweaver, and that didn't fix it.  Any ideas?
    2.  I noticed in another post, that there were comments about largers sites don't do well with templates.  My site's content based (www.howtogardenadvice.com) with no fancy bells or whistles... but am well over 50 pages, and still growing.  Does that mean I have to stop using a template?
    Thanks so much for your help!

    When you site becomes as large as yours sounds, the initial decision to use Templates becomes tedious, since each saved Template change requires that you upload ALL affected local files to reflect that change.  As the site becomes larger and larger, this requirement becomes more and more tedious.  It's not that the Templates don't work.
    I still use Templates on nearly every site I build, but I also use server-side includes to minimize this need.  I use the following scheme....
    First, I mentally separate the page layout into three sections:
    1.  Stuff that will not change for the life of the site (i.e., the basic
    structural elements)
    2.  Stuff that *could* change from time to time (e.g., navigation elements,
    burst advertisements, section-specific navigation, etc.)
    3.  Stuff that *will* change from one page to the next
    Then I create a Template containing all class1 elements.  Next I create
    server-side include files containing all class 2 elements and place them on
    the Template as needed.  Note - some of the class 2 elements may be
    "section-specific elements", and their placement on the Template will be
    subject to the next item.  Finally, I insert editable regions to cover the
    class 3 items, INCLUDING the section-specific navigation.
    This allows me to just cookie-cut the rest of the site.  I estimate that
    even for fairly large sites, about 80% of my work goes into planning and
    creating this Template file.
    To say anything about your #1 problem, we'd need to start by looking at the code on your Template page, and comparing that to the 'garbled' code on your child pages.  Can you show us?

  • Help Please: Playlist Problem

    I recently backed up all the musics and movies I had by using the back up disc feature. I used 4 blank dvd discs to back up all of my files. After I transfered my music to another pc I use, I found very disturbing fact. My ipod has all playsits I had before, but itunes doesn't have any playlist. Every music is under the music fold. Since I have about 1500 musics, I can't even imagine to update all playlists manually. I thought that using the back up disc feature would automatically transfer all my playsits. Is this the way supposed to work or I need to change some other settings too? I don't really know what to do. Please help me to solve this problem. I'd really appreciate it.

    Welcome to  discussions!!!
    Backup just backs up the music. It doesn't back up any of your settings.
    Are you using an external HD?
    If so;
    Hold down the shift key the next time you launch iTunes. Select create library on the pop up window, and save it on your HD.
    The next step can be done in a couple of ways.
    1. Go to your music folder>iTunes>iTunes Music>right click>send to>navigate to the newly created library and select choose (or whatever windows says)
    2. Open your internal iTunes library (hold down shift key>choose library>navigate to your internal music folder>iTunes>choose) Go to iTunes preferences>advanced>general. Change your iTunes music folder location to the location of the new library on your HD: Ext. HD>iTunes> Now go to advanced and consolidate library. You'll get a message that says "consolidating your iTunes library will copy all of your music to the iTunes Music Folder." Select Consolidate
    or....
    3. Open your newly created library, file>add to library>navigate to the iTunes Music folder on your internal HD and select choose.
    There are a couple of other ways, but this should be good.

  • Help please? problems with screen resolution & external monitor

    had a look around this forum and seen many questions about screen resolution when connecting to an external monitor but unfortunately, non that help me answer my problem.
    got a brand new macbook a few months ago and today bought a HP v220 22" external monitor.
    I am new to the idea of external monitors and am unsure what i am doing wrong settings-wise. it seems that no matter what resolution i set either my macbook display, or the external monitor display to. the external monitor is still not sharp.
    Im not sure how to explain what i need but basically i need it to be so that things appear on the external the same size as they do on my macbook screen, so that i will have more space to work in on my external monitor (i am a graphics student) but at the moment what appears on the monitor is lieterally just a magnified version of my macbook screen, hence it lacks clarity.
    the highest resolution offered in the menu for my macbook screen is 1280x800 and my external is recommended to be set at 1680x1050.
    what settings should i have to get the resolution right?
    i will be so so grateful if you can help. i think ive tried every single display setting but to no avail. so please help me!

    The 13.3" screen on the MacBook running at 1280 x 800 will have a ppi (pixels per inch) of around 113. A 22" monitor running 1680 x 1050 will have a ppi of around 90. So it is natural that it will look magnified compared with the MacBook. The two displays have different a pixel pitch.
    Since there are no monitors with ~113 ppi out there in the market, what you want to do with having the same size and sharpness between the MB and a monitor will not be possible.
    If you ran the MB's screen at 1024 x 640 (not even sure if that is an available choice), then the two screens would match in terms of "magnification." But the MB isn't going to look very sharp running such a low, non-native format.

    The general tutorial index is here:

    The program I am using to write this is called BlueJThis has nothing to do with your problem. It is a tool to help you write java, nothing more. The program you are really using is the java compiler. In fact, in your next post here, consider having a better subject header. The one you listed suggested that this was an IDE (Integrated Development Environment) problem rather than a simple java problem. By mislabeling this header, I will bet that you cut the number of folks reading your question by more than half.

  • Help Please ( Speaker Problem Only Playing Through Right)

    Can someone help me please, recently my speakers have only been playing through the right speaker, i have tryed headphones and the problem still occurs and no sound is coming out of the left speaker, i have checked all the sound settings and they are all correct.

    Greetings,
    When you turn your Mac on with either the headphones or the speakers plugged in, do you hear the startup chime "BONG!" only through one side?
    Reset the SMC and then test: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964
    Reset the PRAM and then test: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.6/en/26871.html
    If the issue persists at this point and those headphones work fine on another device (like an iPod) then you have a hardware issue and need service:
    -- Contact a local Apple Authorized Service Provider: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1434
    or

  • Help with wifi problems!

    so yeah...i've been having problems lately on my ipod touch's wifi cause it's connected on the internet at home ever since i bought it but after going home from an overnight at a friends house it didn't like automatically connected like it used to...so i went to the wi-fi and pressed "(name)" with no password on it and it would say "Unable to connect..blah"...i mean..what happened? I've restart my iPod Touch but still wouldn't connect...ive tried a hundred times and it wont work....

    And what part of punctuation class did you miss? Seriously dude, this is difficult to understand without a comma or period somewhere.
    Did your friend change his network? Add encryption? Check with him. However, you can do a simple network reset that will clear up most of these connection problems. Tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings. When your iPod restarts, try to log in again.

      Mac OS X (10.3.9)  

    inapalm:
    Let's start with the attempt to re-install.
    1. Did you make a backup of all you can't afford to lose?
    2. What install option did you use to re-install?
    3. After the re-installation, does everything except the internet work properly?
    4. What browser are you using?
    While I await your response tot he above, try this:
    Boot from your Panther install disk holding down the "C" key.
    Go to the Installer menu and launch Disk Utility.
    Select your HDD (manufacturer ID) in left panel and First Aid in main panel.
    Click on Repair. If Disk Utility reports no errors, quit DU.
    If DU reports errors click Repair again and again until DU reports the disk has been repaired.
    If DU reports errors it cannot repair you will need to use a utility like Tech Tool Pro or Disk Warrior
    Good luck.

  • Newbie needs help Please - mail problems

    Help Needed Please.
    First of all it started a couple of weeks ago i would enter my mail and receive a message saying that the IMAP server didnt reconise
    my password even though i was entering it correctly. My email address i have kept when i chan ged from BT over to Virgin.
    But we have had the imac 6 months now and its beeen performing brilliant.
    Anyway like a idiot i tried to change settingxs and try different options, and now i have wiped my keychain (even tho got no idea what a keychain is)
    and my email settings are messed up.
    Didnt know if i should do a system restore??
    Any Genius at there thanks in advance and im sure your all kringing with my lack of mac knowledge
    this is the first Mac ive ever brought always been a windows
    Mac's the way love it

    Somewhere (hopefully) you will have a note of your email user name and password provided by your ISP.  It should note the server addresses for ingoing and outgoing servers. If you haven't got these details they are likely available on the FAQs of your ISPs website.
    Assuming you are using Apple's Mail app for email the route to adding/editing the relevant data is:
    Mail>Preferences>Accounts tab. You then need to add/edit the data under the various tabs. Check that the SMTP server has all the correct details by clicking in the drop-down menu and selecting 'Edit SMTP server list'. Make sure the details are correctly entered.

  • Help please ~ sound problems with menus in iDVD

    I launch iDVD from within iMovie. Then I start to personalise the menus.
    But the menu screens although showing the chapters only give a loop duration of between 00:00 and 13:30 seconds.
    Every time whenever I import QuickTime dv. files (made in iDVD 5 to avoid the dreaded rise in volume at the end) the sound in iDVD is grotesquely distorted.
    Each of the QuickTime dv. movies last 10 seconds.
    I don't know what I'm doing wrong! Please help!!

    Thanks John Beatty of Maryland for responding. But I think I'll need to post my question again in hopes that someone else will recognise my difficulty.
    I was hoping for a solution.
    The distortion in audio occurs during the process of DESIGNING my DVD ~ I don't get as far as previewing.
    It's only occurring in one screen (or menu). Although my QuickTime dv. file lasts only 10 seconds (in this case) and should therefore fit within a 13 and a half second limit, it shouldn't be offering me such a short time frame ~ normally it's quite a bit more ~ 51 seconds, is it? ~ and you move the slider back to the time you require for the dv. movie to loop.
    But thanks anyway, John. Someone else might recognise my difficulty.
