IPhone loses WiFi every few days

Hi. My iPhone 4S has been acting strange recently. Every few days or so my WiFi will stop working. It shows In the corner that it's connected but nothing that uses the Internet works. I go into Settings and turn WiFi off and on and it tries to connect but the wheel just spins next to the network name. Other devices in my house work fine during that time but the iPhone won't connect. Usually the only way I can get it working again is to reset my network settings on the phone.
I'm wondering if it's my router possibly? It's a Linksys WRT54G that we've had for a long time. I'm using WPA Personal. Could my router be getting too old? Ive also noticed lately that my WiFi strength goes from two to three bars quite a bit on the iPhone. I always had full bars in the past. My channel is on 11 but I tried to change it the other day which caused my Xbox to not connect so that's another reason I'm leaning toward the router being too old. But the fact that my phone can lose signal while everything else in my house is unaffected makes me feel like it could be the phone.
Any help would be appreciated!

IPod Touch 3G loses wifi every few seconds

I just purchased a new Touch 3G last night, and every few seconds it loses the wifi connection and reconnects. It does this over and over again consistently. When i go into wifi settings, i can actually see the settings for my wireless disappear, then reappear with a check mark beside it, every few seconds.
I've tried changing broadcast channel in router, from mixed to non-mixed G, resetting the router and iTouch, and release/renew. My laptop and desktop are connecting fine with the wireless, so i assume the issue is with the iTouch.
3.1.1 OS

Just recently purchased and mine does the same exact thing. Mine seems to show a strong 3 bar connection while in the WiFi settings menu. When I back out to Home, the signal indicator suddenly drops to one bar and will flucuate to 2 or 1 bar. I have done all the tricks mentioned here with my router as well. But in my home I use assigned static IP's. Every setting is correct on the iPod Touch's menu. Im lost as to why it does that.

Airport loses signal every few days

Hi there, I have an airport express which I love, but recently it keeps losing its signal. My ibook and both my mom and dad's ibooks will not detect our airport. I tried changing our channel so it doesn't interfere with our neighbor's networks, which usually works too, but basicallly every 2-3 days, our signal dies. I usually just unplug the airport, and plug it back in after 30 sec. and that works, but its getting annoying. Any thoughts? I'm really tired of our signal being interrupted.
ibook Mac OS X (10.4.7)
ibook Mac OS X (10.4.7)

This has started happening to me on a daily basis.
I would like some help/answers too.
Hi Jeffrey Eddy!
So far during 2007 there have already been one major OS X update and several Security Updates that may have closed holes that might have existed in wireless operations/configurations, or may have made other changes. We don't know for sure, as most of that infomation is typically not made public.
To conform your system to these changes, you will want your base station's firmware to be up-to-date, and your OS X version to be up-to-date. It sounds as if your AirPort Express firmware might not be up-to-date. As anything older will lead to a problem of some sort, it should have the current version 6.3, linked HERE. You can check what your current version is by opening the utility "AirPort Admin Utility" and it will be listed below the Express photo, at the bottom right, as "Apple Base Station V."
Using the Network panel of System Preferences, it also wouldn't hurt to delete and block access to all other wireless networks other than your own that are listed on the AirPort/AirPort pane in the "By default, join:" selector which is located in the middle of the pane.
Rename and reconfigure your own network while you're at it. For that, use "Network Setup Assistant" which is opened at the bottom of the Network panel by using the "Assist me..." button followed by the blue "Assistant..." button. First name your network configuration - you're not naming the network, but the new configuration name that will be displayed on the Network panel's "Location:" selector. Continue on, and in response to "How Do You Connect to the Internet?" activate the radio button for "I use AirPort to connect to the Internet wirelessly." And continue on until you've completed setup of the new network configuration.
Before I switched my setting it woud just randomly
jump to a weaker network signal in the middle of
work.
The default setting of your AirPort is: "If no recent networks are found: Ask before joining an open network." Therefore, your AirPort could only have jumped to another network signal if you had edited the default setting, or due to your willingness to trespass onto the wireless networks of others, which has the same effect. Using someone else's unencrypted network to make online purchases is a good way of becoming a victim of identity theft, if you like that sort of thing.
I always get the warning "connection to base station
not found" so I think it's either the Express itself
or the Airport.
It's probably neither, but a faulty configuration on your part, or due to lack of current firmware in the Express.
I also have an Xbox360 logged into
Live constantly (direct wired through a gateway) and
I never have a service interuption.
This would have nothing to do with your wireless issues.
I have heard a rumor that air traffic can disrupt
wireless service. Is this true? I live about 5 mi.
from Port Columbus.
No, not true. Since most of the population of the country, if not the world, is within 5 mi. of an airport or air traffic, how would all the wireless cell phones work?
Kindly refer to the Apple Support article: AirPort: Potential sources of interference

IPhone 6 flips out every few days

My iphone 6 loses its mind every few days. It starts entering my pass code without my touching the screen, it will "like" posts on FB without me touching the screen, it drops wifi, starts opening 1 app after another by itself. The only solution is to turn it off/on or reboot. This is my second iphone 6 and both acted this way. Any ideas??

It's been quite a while, but I wanted to add a follow-up for anyone who runs across this with a similar problem that Reset Network Settings did not help, but at some point over the next two or three months the problem seems to have dropped drastically in frequency, and when things did flake out they seemed to kick back in on their own after a few minutes if I didn't intervene. I don't know if it was an OS update or carrier update that made the difference.
I have not yet seen the issue with iOS 8 on either my old 5s (now my wife's) or new 6, but it's only been a few days, so I can't say if it has been completely resolved, whether it is limited to the old phone, or whether it followed my migrated data to the new 6.
The T-Mobile coverage at my house has also been upgraded from 4G to LTE, but I don't think that's going to make a difference, since there's still spotty coverage and I didn't have trouble when passing through areas that had little or no T-Mobile coverage on a lengthy trip.

Airport Express and Extreme both having timeout issues once every few days.

I have both an Airport Express and an Airport Extreme in the house (one on each side of the house), and for the last few months, we have been experiencing timeout issues with both. About once every few days, my computer (or any other computer here - all Macs) will lose connection to the hub. When I try to reconnect in the Wifi menu, it says "Connection timed out". Also, on my iPhone, when I try to connect, it says "Unable to connect".
All this takes is a quick restart of the Airport (just pull the power out and plug in), but this is VERY frustrating. I've updated to the latest firmware... I'm not sure what else to do.
Any ideas?

Ok, thanks for clarifying that for me. I suggest starting by reviewing the following AirPort User Tip around the details for best base station placement. Let's see if this will help increase the bandwidth performance of your extended network. Most likely, due to combination of distance and Wi-Fi interference, you may not be getting the best bandwidth possible. Please post back your results.

Airport Express goes MIA every few days

I am using Windows Vista, and Airport Express to create a wireless network (it is the only wireless router, connected to a wired router). Every couple of weeks or so on average, my computer will be unable to find the network. I have found no pattern, no triggering action. Out of the blue, one day, it will not find the network. Nothing but a hard reset and going through the setup again will help (and even then, it takes 15-20 attempts before the Airport Utility finally sees the freshly reset Airport Express).
I have tried this with two different laptops. It is only the one that is used to update/setup the Airport Express that refuses to find it afterwards. Other devices will continue to be able to see and connect to network (Android phone, iPhone, iPad, etc).
This has been bothering me for at least a couple of years now. I have tried lots of different security settings, and pretty much all the options I can see. I have scoured Google and can't really find anyone else having had the same problem. It is driving me crazy.
Does anyone have any idea what might be happening? I am currently in the position where my laptop has lost the Airport Express, Airport Utility can't see it and I have to use a different wi-fi. Other devides continue to see and use the network I had created with my laptop.
This happened with Win 98, and now it is happening with Vista on a new laptop. This has happened with two different routers, two different ISPs, and on two different continents. I really want to use Airport Express for iTunes, but this will drive me mad!
Any help will be massively appreciated. Thank you.

Welcome to the discussions, Bob!
+I have an older igloo airport extreme and every few days it will drop internet connectivity+
If the problem seems to have started recently, that would be a clue that someone near you has probably setup a new wireless network that may be interfering with your signal, or there may even be a new cordless phone next door that is causing some issues.
(My neighbor...across the street...can literally knock me off the internet if he happens to walk out his front door talking on his cordless phone; something I found out only by accident one day)
The easiest potential solution, without downloading utilities to try to identify other networks near you, is to simply experiment by changing the channel on your wireless network to see if you can find some better airspace. Keep a record so you can track your changes, what works better, what doesn't, etc.
Here's how to change the channel on your wireless:
Open Macintosh HD > Applications > Utilities > AirPort Utility
Click Manual Setup
Click the Wireless tab below the row of icons
The Channel setting is on this page
Click Update to save your changes and the Airport Extreme will take about 20-25 seconds to restart again.
Maybe start on the high channel...11 and try that first, then work down from there as the lower channels 1 tend to be more crowded, but there are no hard and fast rules.
Hopefully, there are not too many networks around you and you'll be able to find the "right" channel.

I am having to reset my icloud password every few days

I have had this recurrent problem over the last 2 - 3 weeks. Every few days I find that Mail won't log in to my .mac account and tells me to reset my password. When I go to the reset page it tells me my password has been locked 'for security reasons'. I am on maybe my 5th or 6th new password in around 3 weeks, when I have not had to reset my password for over a decade previously. This is all obviously a massive pain: I am now having to use passwords I cannot readily remember, because iCloud won't let me re-use old passwords; and I am, of course, also having to change the password on my iPad and my iPhone and re-enter it for various iCloud sync'd services such as Address Book.
Can anyone please explain why this is happening and if there is anything I can do to stop it?
Thanks.

In my case I have to change the password every week.
The requested reset takes long time when I am on mobile modem with low quality connection (traveling). Have file on Desktop, where type my new password instead of the old one every reset. Do not think this is secure - but what to do...
The only guess is - Mail is checking the account every several minutes (I have it open when in office) and Apple has some limit to the number of connections before such request is issued.
I would prefer not to be bothered by this. I was using the same password from the beginning till quite recent time when this reqests started. There were no problems with security and I do not like and do not want to change password so often.
Anyone in here managed to avoid these requests? I am not using LinkedIn. Actually do not remember anything where I could put my iCloud password even once (especially to put it each week after weekly reset) - except iCloud itself...
Or are there just 5 of us with such problem - something common with the iCloud registration? I have my account since iTools/.Mac. May be they simply want me out?

My new (2 months old) 5s fingerprint recognition sensor does not work. It worked well when I first got it but now to get it to work I have to redo my fingerprints every few days, which completely negates the convenience and cost of the phone.

My new (2 months old) 5s fingerprint recognition sensor does not work. It worked well when I first got it but now to get it to work I have to redo my fingerprints every few days, which completely negates the convenience and cost of the phone. I have tried all the tips and they help a little but it always stops working and I have to redo my fingerprints. Does Apple read these comments? Is there an app that might help?

Apple does not read here.
If you want Apple to know send feedback
http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphone.html
I also have iPhone 5s on day one and it's working since. When it's not registering, I just clean the Home button and it works straight away.
Did you try when registering fingerprint using all angles? It should learn the more you use it.
Did you clean the sensor with a soft cloth?

I am losing communication to the FP-3000 every few days.

I am communicating to the FP-3000 via OPC. Every few days I lose communication to the FP-3000. The ready light has turned off. Rebooting the unit corrects the problem. Does anyone have any ideas?

It sounds like the problem of I/O module. Make sure the I/O module is firmly seated, the terminal base is firmly attached to the terminal base on its left.
You may look for bent pins on the bottom of the module or between terminal bases (don't forget power down the bank before removing terminal bases).
You can also send e-mail to "[email protected]" for further support.

EA6900 drops 2.4 GHz wifi every other day

Hey,
my EA6900 (firmware version 1.1.42.158863) drops the 2.4 GHz network every other day or so. At that point, all connected devices lose the network connection and cannot connect again until I manually reset the router. This is a big pain in the **bleep**.

How do I fix this?
I've enabled automatic router firmware updates, but this has not helped over the last weeks.
Thanks in advance,
Robert

There is a bunch of people with this router ( me included) that are having issues with the wireless dropping out. Some more than others as far as the frequency of it. I have a ticket open with them and have been talking to them every few days about it. One thing I discovered the other day that has stopped it from dropping connections on the 2.4 is to set the mode to G only. I have given this info to linksys and they are supposed to get back to me by tomorrow with some more info. I am assuming it is the same problem as yours: everything is working fine then all of a sudden devices start to disconnect randomly. An my laptops it shows as the SSID is available but it wont connect to it. Only way to get back on is to reboot the router. As suggested by linksys the security is set to WPA2 Personal and the bandwidth is set to 20 mHz instead of auto. There was a big thread about this starting to happen when the last update came out that went from 1.1.42.156465 to 1.1.42.158863. If the Auto update was checked it got the update and started to disconnect wireless stuff. Might want to see what hardware version your is, the 1.0 came with the 1.1.42.156465 so if yours has updated to the newer one you could roll back and see if it gets better. there is a go back to last version button on the UI. but if you have the hw ver 1.1 it came with the updated version and we have been told not to go back as it may brick the router. here is the thread: http://community.linksys.com/t5/Wireless-Routers/EA6900-New-Firmware-1-1-42-158863/td-p/770985

Late 2012 iMac Freezes every few days

My iMac has been in the Apple Store for a week with the Geniuses and they came back saying they couldn't find anything so putting this out to this community in the hope someone else can help. Here are the details.
Model: 21.5 inch Late-2012 iMac
RAM: 8Gb
Processor: 2.9Ghz Intel Core i5
Graphics: NVIDIA GeForce GT 650M 512 MB
Hard Drive: 1.12 Tb Fusion (653Gb free)
OS: 10.8.4
Software: Fairly vanilla with no MS or Adobe Apps. No system extensions or hacks installed.
Symptom: Every few days or so the iMac locks up. Certain running applications will still work but many common ones such as Pages, Aperture, App Store & TextEdit will hang when trying to open. Force Quitting them doesn't affect them. When I try to shut down the computer it goes to the grey screen and stays there. Eventually the power needs to be turned off to reboot it. This has been doing this for the last several months.
Solutions Tried:
- Fixed permissions
- Reset PRAM
- Re-install OS X
I can't replicate the crash but today it happened again. At around 3:50pm I went to the iMac and noticed that Pages wouldn't load. Force quitting the App didn't do anything. Aperture was not responding so force quit that. Still wouldn't re-open. Mail was working fine and I was able to send a test message. Safari worked fine. Launched System Preferences ok but could not launch TextEdit or App Store. Calendar opened and closed fine. Attempted to restart the Mac but got the grey screen and after 5 minutes of waiting turned the computer off & relaunched it.

Notice that the last Console entry was at 2:47pm (in red) and then nothing. I went to use the computer at 3:50pm and did several actions on it. Plugged in iPad, opened iTunes. Copied a file from the iPad to the desktop. Prior to that it hadn't been used for several hours. The shutdown that I selected does not appear in the log (although it only managed to go to the grey screen rather than complete a full shut down).
Appreciate any clues at all here. This is very frustrating and has been going on for far too long.
TIA. Jordan

Back up all data immediately as your boot drive may be failing.
If you have more than one user account, these instructions must be carried out as an administrator.
Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
syslog -k Sender kernel -k Message CReq 'Channel t|GPU D|I/O|Previous Sh' | tail | open -ef
Copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C).
Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Paste into the Terminal window (command-V).
The command may take a noticeable amount of time to run. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear.
A TextEdit window will open with the output of the command. If the command produced no output, the window will be empty. Post the contents of the TextEdit window (not the Terminal window), if any — the text, please, not a screenshot. The title of the window doesn't matter, and you don't need to post that.

I need to share a file with sec.(windows based). She uses it all the time. I need to just download updated version every few days. I have an old airport extreme and was hoping to attach an external drive. Will this work?

I need to download an updated version of a file every few days to use. My secretary works on the file all the time. I thought i could use my old airport extreme and attach an external HD and set up a network to do just this. At work we alll use pc's. How can i make this work? At the moment we use usb stick to transfer which is getting to be a bit of a pain as the file grows every week. Presently 5GB.

Yes, you can use either the 802.11g or 802.11n AirPort Extreme Base Station (AEBS) to attach an external USB HDD for file sharing. Either AEBS model would allow you to share out this HDD to either Macs or PCs. From the PC, the shared HDD would appear as a network drive which you can map via Windows Explorer.
