Wifi Working OK, MBP after 10.4.8 update SLOW!

Hi all!
Right after I upgraded to 10.4.8 the Airport connectiom on my MBP is really slow. I used to get 700kbps speeds, but know i´m at 45kbps!!!
I tried the "delete preferences" tip found on these boards, but it did not work in my user account.
I then created a new user account, and Airport connected at full speed. It has to be some software issue, so i tried to delete all prefs I could find in my original account regarding Airport or network, but it still hasn´t improve.
I must say i have never had any issues with Airport on my MBP, it has always worked flawlessy until right after the update.
Any ideas??? thank you.

two ideas that have already been mentioned:
- do you use coconut wifi? quit it / delete it al a startup item (preferences -> user -> select yourself -> startup items (that's how it might be called in English^^)
- try switching the router's channel (might be helpfull to use a cable-conncetion while doing that): load your router's setuppage (usually the component's name such as fritz.box or (in my case) ssx553, or try your IP and replace the final digit with a 1) than go to wifi, channels. Switching it to "auto" helped in my case, a friend of mine had good experiences with channel 11.
Hope this will help (I am NO computer expert and pretty new to the mac^^)

Can't get wifi working on X201 after installing Win 7 64 bit

I've just purchased an X201 type 3294 with a 320gb HDD running Windows 7 64bit. Wifi works fine when running from the original HDD. I've pulled the HDD and replaced it with an SSD and installed windows 7 64 bit so I can use the 4gb RAM which came with the computer. I did a fresh install then started trying to install drivers. I started with Wifi first so I could download the rest of the drivers directly to the computer. I can't get wifi working after installing Windows 7 64bitfor some reason. I have the original HDD in an external enclosure so I can still access it.
I can't figure out what drivers I need, or even what adapter I have on the computer.Lenovo's part look up tells me the adapter is part number 60Y3231, but that information seems to be useless. I've tried most of the drivers on Lenovo's driver page. I've tried just copying the C:/Drivers folder from the original HDD, and just about anything else I can thinkof.
Anyone know how I can get the right driver, or if this is even a driver problem? For what it's worth I'm not afraid of having to learn some terminal if I have to but I'm totally unfamiliar with Win 7. I have much more experience with XP, Vista and OSX/some Ubuntu.
Solved!

Hello and welcome,
If you have a wired connection you could try installing ThinkVantage System Update. Run it and it should find all the appropriate drivers and install them for you.
That FRU seems to be an Intel Centrino Advanced-N 6200. It's hard to tell from the drivers page which one to use. Most of the README files include 6200. My best guess: http://download.lenovo.com/ibmdl/pub/pc/pccbbs/mobiles/g1w218ww_s64.exe

IPhone USB/BT/Wifi Unable to Connect after iTunes 10.7 Update

If anyone can help, it would be greatly appreciated!
Background:
I received and installed the iTunes 10.7 (21) last night. This morning, my MBP would not connect to my I phone via Wifi/USB/BT. I did some digging and apparently this is an issue with this iTunes update. I have subsequently removed iT 10.7 and reinstalled iT 10.6.3 and successfully retrieved the archive library. That all seems to be working well.
By way of trouble shooting the iPhone 4, I've been able to establish link to the Wifi and USB with my work Windows laptop, and wifi with my iPad 3 MacBook, so I'm reasonably certain that it is working correctly.
Hardware:
MacBook Pro:13/i5; OS 10.6.8 with all updates.
iPhone 4: iOS 5.1.1
I really don't want to update OS/iOS at this time for a number of reasons... like I really use the maps and would like to wait until that issue is fixed for iOS6.
So, what have I missed? What tweak did the 10.7 update do that I can undo?
I'm sickeningly dependent upon my iPhone/hotspot and this is most distressing!
Anyone know how to correct this?
Best regards,
John

A bit more...
iPhone4 connects with the cable, I can sync, update, etc... just no wifi/BT/USB data...

Wifi: no hardware installed, after latest yosemite security update

I just applied Security Update 2015-002 (at the behest of Software Update), along with the Command Line Tools (OS X 10.10) v6.2 update, and after the mini rebooted, it now says Wifi:No Hardware installed. And when I go to Network and Hardware in System Preferences, it gives a preferences error. I have tried resetting the NVRAM and the SMC, to no avail. Anyone else have this issue?

In some cases, this issue is caused by a hardware fault. A loose connection, a short circuit, or a microscopic break in a solder joint may open and close depending on temperature, making the failure intermittent.
Test after taking each of the following steps that you haven't already taken. Back up all data before making any changes.
1. Turn off Bluetooth. If you have a desktop Mac, you'll need a wired keyboard and mouse to take this step. Those are useful to have anyway, because Bluetooth is not completely reliable. If Wi-Fi works with Bluetooth turned off but not when you turn it back on, delete all pairings in the Bluetooth preference pane and recreate them. Restart the computer and test again.
2.. There are a few reports that the problem was solved by unchecking the box marked
Wake for Wi-Fi network access
in the Power Adapter tab of the Energy Saver preference pane. I can't confirm.
3. Reset the NVRAM.
4. Reset the System Management Controller.
5. Start up in Recovery mode. In the menu bar of the OS X Utilities screen, there's a Wi-Fi menu. Try to connect.
6. Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store, or go to another authorized service provider.

Mic not working on speakerphone after iOS 5.1 update

Updated to 5.1 last night.
When using the phone, I click SPEAKER and whilst I can hear the other person, the mic on my iPhone is muted and they can't hear me.
Works fine without loudspeaker on.
Cannot press mute button to "unmute", it has no effect.
Incidentally, the noise cancelling mic at the top, doesn't get muted, it's on the main mic...
Anyone else having this problemo?
iPhone4S

It must be a software problem... My partner has the EXACT same issue - we upgraded our devices pretty much at the same time as each other...
He eventually took his phone into Apple Store last night and spoke with a genius. The guy was bit of an idiot really, checking the phone for water damage etc and insisting that it "coulnd't possibly be a software problem"... He failed to understand that two iPhones in the same household had simultaneously developed the exact same problem, after upgrading to 5.1, when they worked perfectly fine about 40 minutes earlier...
Anyway, after much huffing and puffing, my partner walked away with a brand new phone, but we had to leave it overnight to upgrade back to 5.1 and subsequently restore itself... Frankly, I'm not all that convinced it's going to work, but I will update you when I know what the latest is,,,!

10.6.8 Server: Spotlight stops working for clients after fresh installation and updates

Problem:
On 2013-02-22, I reinstalled my Xserve with fresh 10.6.3 and upgraded it to 10.6.8 OS X Server. Spotlight used to be working perfectly for clients to search over the network but now it is not working. Administrators doing local spotlight search on Xserve server side is searchable. Clients with less privileges searching files across the network to the server will receive null result. Administrators searching files across the network is still working.
I believe it has something to do with the update packages and some security improvement bugs introduced in late 2012 or early 2013.
All my clients Macs are in either 10.7.5 and 10.8.2.
Can anyone confirm this? All my staff members in the company cannot do the spotlight search to the server now!

Hi, maracujana,
the problem can be solved if you allow the permssion of parental folder of your share points to have at least Read Only permission for User and Group:
permission: 644
User: Read&Write
Group: Read Only
Others: Read Only (or No Access)
In my case, it is strange that PCs can still do the search to the Snow Leopard Server by SMB protocol while Mac using AFP cannot even when the parental folder had permission 600. This could be a secure issue in Snow Leopard's SMB1.0 protocol. Note that SMB in Snow Leopard is SMB1.0, which is less secure and hence deprecated after Snow Leopard. From Lion onwards, all OS X uses SMB2.0 and/or SMB X.
Oh, yes, there is one more thing:
you may find your scanner using SMB protocol stopped functioning properly if you use (Mountain) Lion client and (Mountain) Lion server. It boils down to Apple's silent change of SMB protocol from SMB1.0 to SMB2.0. Solution? Use FTP protocol for now. Don't blame Apple too much because Apple had to follow the rules of GPLv3. The SMB issue will go on as Microsoft introduces its own SMB 3.0 protocol in Windows 8 while Apple introduces its SMB verison dubbed SMB X.
Hope this helps.

Wifi: No Hardware Installed after 10.7.3 update?

I've got a MBP 3,1 which I just updated to 10.7.3 through Software Update with the hopes that the wifi updates would fix my waking from sleep issues. However, upon restarting when I click on the wifi icon it shows in grey text "Wi-Fi No hardware installed". Now I can't use wifi at all!
I've since tried downloading the combo updater and ran that and it didn't fix it.
I've also done the usual PRAM and PMU resets to no avail.
In my system profiler I see this under PCI Cards:
pci168c,24:
Type:          Other Network Controller
Driver Installed:          No
MSI:          No
Bus:          PCI
Slot:          PCI Slot 5
Vendor ID:          0x168c
Device ID:          0x0024
Subsystem Vendor ID:          0x106b
Subsystem ID:          0x0087
Revision ID:          0x0001
Link Width:          x1
Link Speed:          2.5 GT/s
This looks like it would be my airport card, but it has no driver?
Any ideas?

The wifi card is the original stock card, I have never replaced it. I have replaced my HDD and RAM though, but I doubt that would be an issue.

Something wrong with AirPort I see... the driver perhaps?

Mapped Work Areas missing after 10.6.7 Update

Hi,
Got a strange one here....
We have about 60 Intel iMacs, in various forms, connected to our Active Directory Network.
All users log in to the domain using their Active Directory accounts, are have their work areas mapped at log in.
This has worked without fault for 2 years.
We have just installed the lasted "Mac OS X Update Combined 10.6.7" on a few of the iMacs. After applying this update the users no longer get the mapped drive to their work area.
It is definately something that has happened after this update, as if a user logs onto an iMac that hasn't been updated, they get their works areas as normal?
Any advice would be appreciated, I'm starting to pull my hair out

Because I've had strange problems with past system update downloads, I now always get my system updates from http://support.apple.com/downloads/
I always use the Update Combo version. It installs a fresh set of all previous updates as well as the new one. This gives you a fresh beginning with system 10.6.x. Since I adopted that practice, I've had no more issues with updates.

MSI GT70 audio not working with hmdi after windows 8.1 update

When I connect my laptop to the TV, the video comes out fine, but the audio for the TV does not show up in playback devices. It worked fine with windows 8, but after the windows 8.1 update it stopped.
I have tried updating realtek drivers, but it still doesn't show up. updating other drivers also doesn't work. plugging the cable into the computer then booting it up also doesn't work like it did for other people. This is really making me mad... any help would be appreciated.

Pah, no probs to my ext. monitor speakers via HDMI, GT70 0NE, Win 8.1.
Have you tried assigning HDMI one on audio tab as default and see if sound will come out to tv? if so then that was the problem.

AirDrop not working on iphone5 after ios 7.1 update

Hello
My iphone5 does not connect with my ipad air on bt or airdrop, ipad can see iphone but iphone do not pair with any device
I try hard reset, alter settings but won't work.
It seems to be a bug on ios 7.1
So sad because either I should use iCloud for exchange files Or with itunes

Also having same problems as above, AirDrop not working between iPhones or iPads from iPhoto. On same WiFi, blue tooth searching for devices but not connecting. Tried hard reset, checked privacy settings, icon is there, blinks when pressed, but no other activity. Have used AirDrop previously many times with no problems, now nothing. Machines and iOS all up to date.
Off to work, hope someone can come up with some solution.

Mail not working at all after 10.9.3 update

Does anyone have a fix for this issue? I have tried reinstalling Mavericks as a whole
and Mail still isn't working. I've also tried zapping the pram and repairing disk
permissions with no luck. I can use webmail but I really need to access my
desktop Mail. When I open the program is it is grayed out across the top of
the screen and no windows come up at all. If I click any of the menus they turn
black and I can see into all of the drop down menus but a lot of the items are
grayed out like "new viewer window". If I want to quit Mail, I have to force quit it.

Before we move you to the new User, let's try nuking files used by Mail and see if we can get Mail working in your User.
System Preferences > Internet Accounts > Delete all accounts.
Go to your User's Library folder. (if you don't know how to find, see this link.)
Rename Mail to MailXX
Go to Containers in the User's Library folder. Delete the com.apple.mail folder.
Go to Preferences in the User's Library folder. If you find any com.apple.mail.plist files, delete these.
Log out under the Apple in the Menu bar
Log in
Open Mail. Add one account at a time and make sure it is working before adding additonal acounts.
If you have POP account you can import the "On My Mac" folders from the MailXX folder.
If this fails, we'll move you into the new User.

IPod Touch no longer working with Nike after 4.3.2 update.

I updated to 4.3.2 about a week ago and immediately afterwards my itouch was not able to pick up the Nike+ sensor when initiating a run (during the "walk around to start the sensor" part). I even went out and dropped 20 bucks on a new sensor at Best Buy because my initial thought was the battery died since I've been using it for about 2 years. When I went to pair the new sensor I was surprised to see the itouch finding "multiple sensors" and still pickign up on my old one, so I had to go to a seperate room to pair the new one. I thought all was right in the world, but the next morning again it would not find the signal to start the workout.
I also did a factory reset, but still nothing.
What's going on? Is anyone else having this problem or is it just me?

I was also having this problem with my Kenwood car stereo. I went into the store and they did a complete restore. I didn't think it worked but the next time I plugged it into my usb to connect with my car stereo it worked. So you might try doing a restore.

Any app audio through Airplay no longer works on ipad2 after 5.1.1 update. Working Airplay on my iphone.

I have a working Airplay connection to my Pioneer VSX-1021 Receiver. My iPhone 3GS and iTunes on my PC connect and send audio with no issues.
On the ipad2 through the music app for instance, I am able to select the Receiver as an Airplay destination but the blue Airplay icon soon goes white and it defaults back to iPad. The scrub bar and time counter never advance. Similar results with Garage Band. Settings on ipad and iphone are the same.
I have noticed this since upgrading to 5.1.1 but it could have been this way prior to the upgrade.
Any ideas?

Honestly, this is a WAG but try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.

Lose connection to wifi every few minutes, after iOS 7.1 update

I just recently updated my iPad to iOS 7.1
My iPad is the model w retina display, cellular capable but with the data plan currently disabled.
Immediately following that update, I can no longer stay connected to my home wifi. My connection lasts from 30 seconds to maybe 10 minutes, seemingly dependent on the amount of load I attempt to put on the connection. (i.e. downloading a movie or any video will drop the connection in seconds)
I have updated the firmware on both my wifi router, and my wifi range extender. Connecting to either gives the same results: a disconnect within minutes.
Other devices can connect and stay connected on both the wifi router and the wifi extender. Resetting the router, the extender, my ipad, or any combination yields the same erroneous results. Airplane Mode, wifi off then back on, and rebooting the ipad all yield the same results.
This iPad was able to maintain a connection before the iOS 7.1 update.

Hello omniges
Continue your troubleshooting with the article below. Try forgetting the network by going to Settings > Wi-Fi, and tap the info button and then tap Forget this Network. You also may want to reset the network settings on your iPad as well
