After a while, WRT54G won't allow me into web interface anymore.

I can get into the web interface shortly after powering on the router. But after several hours, or days, I no longer can access it. The internet and network continue to work, I just can't access the settings page (I get something like "page cannot be displayed" in all browsers).
If I unplug the router and plug it back in, I can get into the settings page again.
What might cause this? Would it be fixed if I upgrade the firmware?

Hi. I think people are misunderstanding my issue. That'smy fault, as I didn't report the error accurately. The error is actually an "Empty server response", not a 404 page not found. So it's talking to the router, but getting nothing back.
I understand wired connections are not subject to interference, the way wireless ones are.
However a wired connection for this PC is not feasible without bashing holes in the wall,
and anyway I can see no reason why I can't do this wirelessly (even if there's some risk of interference).
Some people seem to be implying this is "By design" and you're expected to access the settings page only via a wire, and it's perfectly normal to require a reboot before being allowed into it. I don't buy that. I've used other routers where I can access the settings wirelessly every time, even if it hasn't been rebooted in a long time.
What I'm getting at is this: the current issue has nothing to do with interference, if it were interference then I could get on after several attempts. Or if the interference is so strong that I can't connect even after trying for hours... then a simple reboot would not fix it. But a reboot does fix it, which tells me the router seems to be holding on to some info or setting that prevents my PC from accessing it. When I reboot, it loses or changes that info/setting. I'm just curious what it might be.
If the bottom line is "your router is old and sucks, replace it" then I can certainly just do that. I'd just like to know that the new one will not have this problem.

Firefox was working on my new iMac but then, after switching on recently, won't connect to the web – whereas Safari has no problem.

===
Hi
I bought an iMac a week ago and installed Firefox via Safari. It worked fine for a while but, after a recently switching on, it won't connect to the web whereas Safari has no problems.
I've tried following the Firefox Help, looking into the iMac firewall, but still no luck.
I've no idea whether related or not but yesterday I had a system glitch where the iMac stated no wi-fi was installed and only connected via a physical lead to my house router. Also, there was no sound output via Safari. However, after booting up today all seems well – apart from Firefox still not working. It loads the start page but can't access the web.
I have Little Snitch running, and wonder if that's the culprit... but it's working fine with Safari, seemingly.
(Finally, how do I stop a dialogue box appearing on start-up saying that "To open “X” you need a Java runtime. Would you like to install one now?)
Any ideas anyone?
Cheers

On the wireless networks that your Mac has had trouble connecting to, do you know which Wireless Security type (WEP, WPA, or WPA2) is being used?
If it is WEP, one of the problems is that the actual standard relies on a 10 character HEX key for 40bit WEP and a 26 character HEX key for 128bit WEP. In order to make things easier, vendors use certain algorithms to convert simple alphanumeric passwords (or passphrases) into HEX keys, thus enabling the use of simple easy to remember WEP password rather than lengthy HEX keys. The problem is that different vendors use different algorithms to generate the HEX key and therefore a ASCII password on an AEBS will be hashed differently on a non-Apple client and vice versa.

How do I fix my gmail after installing mavericks - it won't allow me to move emails to folders it just moves them back to the inbox?

I upgraded to Mavericks. Now my gmail accounts won't work properly - I can move emails out my inbox into the various folders I use to file them. Can anyone help?

That is correct... I know the Admin password but the password for my keychain is not correct and I can't seem to remember what the last password would have been. Any ideas how to reset it? Maybe delete and recreate? I know I may lose some info. Thanks!

Kobo won't allow content to be read anymore

I have been using the reader for almost a year and it worked just fine. Now when I transfer content to it from my PC it won't open it. It says "The content ypou are trying to view is locked." It then says to authorize th reader with the Adobe ID.
The ADE application on the PC allows the transfer to take place so it thinks the reader IS authorized (right?). I was wondering if there is a way to re-authorize the reader?

I've read other posts about this situation. As I recall, it happened to
someone just after he updated his KOBO ereader with new software. Try
contacting KOBO about this issue - they may have an answer on hand.

I am trying to switch laptops with my mom, and successfully wiped mine and restored it, but now her password won't allow her into my computer, even though it says it's her account. Is there any way to bypass the password screen?

I am trying to switch laptops with my mom, and successfully wiped mine and restored it, but now the password that she used on her computer isn't working on this computer. Is there any logical reason why the two passwords would be different, if I restored her information from a Time Machine backup? Aditionally, Is there a way to bypass the password page on startup to make a password that my mom knows?

If Disk Warrior does not work you can try the following steps (but they may not work if the disk has a hardware error).
Get the disk (DVD or CD) that came with the system (since you have it listed as 10.6.8). If it is 10.7 or 10.8 use the Recovery partition to boot from or the USB installer if you have that option.
Insert the disk then power down
HOLDING the C key, power up to boot from the disc.
Get to Disk Utility
If Disk Utility will now show your hard drive, use DU to REPAIR the disk.
When it completes the Repair process successfully as indicated in DU, do a shut down. If Repair is not successful then an different course of action is indicated below.
Then HOLDING THE APPLE (or Command key depending on your keyboard) KEY AND THE OPTION KEY AND THE LETTER P AND R KEYS, continue hiolding them until you hear the chime tone for the THIRD time then release all four keys.
If REPAIR is not successful, use the Install disc as a boot and REINSTALL THE OS X OPERATING SYSTEM DO NOT ERASE THE DISK OR VOLUME FIRST. REPEAT DO NOT erase the disk or volume before trying to reinstall the OS X operating system. After re-installing the OS do a software update. Note that ERASING the disk is NOT required to do an OS re-install. This allows your existing data and application files to remain.
If that fails then you are down to the "bitter end" of erasing the volume and reinstalling the OS and then all the other software.
If erasing the Volume fails then your last hope is to completely erase the entire hard drive, repartion the disk and try a re-install.
If that fasils then you may have a defective hard disk.

Sign in screen won't allow me into PS cs6

On my trial Ps cs6, the sign in screen when i try to open it up won't connect to the internet and allow me to open the program. Offline activation fails to work as well!
is it me?

Did you have a PS CS6 Beta installed? If yes, yu might need to uninstall that one before you install the CS6 trial.
Some details about your computer and error message will also help. If you can attach a screenshot of the error that would be great.

I have a 24 bit external DAC/ Amplifier connected to the optical output on my new iMac. I just upgraded to Yosemite and noticed instead of 96000 hz output it has gone down to 41000hz and won't allow me to adjust this anymore with the new OS upgrade.

Hi as stated above, when i updated my OS system to Yosemite, i am no longer able to select audio quality above 41000hz. how can i fix this? ps i am connected to an external dad through optical which supports unto 96000hz.

Wow that was really quick, thank you so much. Im not sure at all which version it was because i said it was around 4 years ago he bought it. I know it isn't under his username, since he's a PC person (ugh) so i know its probably registered to one of our actual names. isn't there some way to look it up since we did register it, because I'm not even sure where the disks are from when we bought it (we've moved a lot and also have two storage lockers, i know i would have kept it with other disks) but my cd rom drive is actually broken on my computer as well ( i think it got stepped on and is now squished and won't eject or run disks.)
So is there anyway they can look up that its registered to one of our names since we did register it when we bought and installed it, or do i really have to find the disk with some sort of proof of purchase (i know there would be no receipt after all this time)
either way, ill do what you suggested to the best of my abilities and thank you so much for answering my questions, i can't even open the program as its incompatible and find out the info from that) so I'm in a bit of a pickle and your response was so thorough and it didn't seem to be posted long enough to even write a well researched response, thanks, all the best,

Firefox won't allow typing into Google search bar whereas Chrome will

Hi,
I'm currently running Firefox 6.0.2 on Windows XP SP3 with Outlook 2003 SP3. No changes made recently to anything.
Suddenly several errors happening at once, most involving Firefox.
1) Homepage Google. I cannot type anything in Google search bar.
If I replace it with e.g. Yahoo I can type anything, but replace it with Google and it is blocked again. I have re-booted, removed and replaced homepage etc no help.
2) If I type www.hotmail.co.uk in Firefox address bar at top of screen it refuses to find the site. Nothing happens at all. Any other address I have typed in it had found ok, but this one remains blocked.
3) It is difficult to see an immediate relationship to Firefox with this one, but it started at exactly the same time and also involves Google, so it is a bit of a coincidence otherwise. I keep getting Google delay messages on many of my emails. In fact they never get through, and I don't even have a Google email account!
I use SKY email, Outlo0k as above and both are working normally apart from the bizarre Google messages as below:

I would be grateful for any help or suggestions

In the address bar type "about:config" without the quotation marks.
Then in the Filter field type keyword.
Then double click keyword.URL
and type or copy and paste the following: "http://www.google.com/search?ie=UTF-8&sourceid=navclient&gfns=1&q=" without the quotations.

Itunes won't allow replace into on this phone "contacts"

3gs. I want to delete all contacts currently on the phone & replace them. Attempted a couple of days ago but replacement stopped early. Don't know why. I should have 2700 contacts & now only have 249. So I want to try again however under "info" & then "advanced" section; "contacts" are greyed out & I can't check the box. Could check calendars box, not contacts. I use the latest iOS 5.1.1. Any ideas?

I ended up having to spend one night restoring the phone to its original default settings, then restored the saved settings and lastly replaced all of the contacts & calendars.

I just upgraded to the Maverick OS...and now it won't allow me into iPhoto. Any suggestions?! I literally have thousands of pictures in iPhoto and am panicking!

Laserjet 4345 mfp won't scan to folder; web interface not showing all admin tabs

Hi,
I have a laserjet 4345 mfp which, until a few days ago, was able to scan documents to a network folder. When I try now it gives me the error "the path cannot be found". Here's what I've tried so far:
- Looked for a way to change the network folder settings or define a new folder. I couldn't find any so I printed the "how to scan to folder" page from the control panel. It tells me to define a new location by clicking the "Other" button on the control panel, but I can't find an Other button, on any screen.
- Accessed the web interface, which only shows up with the "Home" and "Networking" tabs - no "Digital Sending", "Settings", or "Information" tabs, which should be there according to the manual.
- Thinking it might be a permissions issue, I checked and found that the administrator password was not set. I set the admin password via the web interface, and now when I try to access it prompts for the password I defined, but still gives this incomplete interface. I am also able to access and change all the networking settings, so I don't think insufficient permissions are the issue.
- Called HP support, they said the problem is permissions and I should cold reset the machine, which I am quite reluctant to do since not only all settings, but the entire address book as well, would need to be re-entered. This aside from the fact that I really don't think permissions are the issue, as decribed above.
- Verified that I am able to send scans to different email addresses. SMTP gateway test goes through OK. LDAP does not, but this has not prevented scan to folder from working in the past.
I don't know how the scan-to folder was initially set up because I wasn't supporting this client at the time.
Any ideas?
Many thanks in advance.

I have a problem with my scan to folder as well and I have to access the folder from a computer before it will work. I'm not sure why that works, actually. You might want to give that a try to see if it fixes the problem. If it does, I imagine it is some sort of security problem with the folder you are trying to scan to.
Thanks,
Tiffany

IMac won't allow me to login after few hours

Hi everyone...
My iMac won't allow me to login after few hours. Actually I had a limited broadband connection which is free from 2AM to 8AM. So I have scheduled some downloads to start at 2AM and end at 8AM. Before going to bed, I just put on the screen saver. When I wake early in the morning and move my mouse.. blank screen turns on and colorful spinning wheel appears, but log-in window doesn't appear. This has happened thrice till now. Day before yesterday it was fine. But yesterday and today I got the same problem. Previously also it was working fine. I can't figure out why it is behaving like this...
Initially, in Power save options, I scheduled iMac to wake up at 2AM and sleep at 8AM and then used to put iMac to sleep before going to bed. It was working fine and did the same thing for more than a month. Now I have removed wakeup & sleep scheduled options from Power save options.
Following are the settings/options selected:
1. In energy save options, I have selected the option not to put iMac to sleep when it is inactive for certain time.
2. Put hard-disks to sleep whenever possible is checked.
3. I have scheduled the downloads in Azureus, Transmission and Speed download 5.
Following are the temps and rpms:
Temps:
HD: iMac, Vista: 124 F
CPU A: 117
Airport Card: 151 F
Ambient: 83 F
GPU: 133 F
GPU Diode: 137 F
GPU Heatsink: 137 F
HD Bay1: 124 F

Optical Drive: 110 F
Power supply1: 162 F
Fans:
CPU Fan: 1198 rpm
Hard Drive: 1199rpm
Optical Drive: 998rpm
One more thing, recently I have reset the SMU because it is taking too long to boot up. To my surprise, after restarting, fan (not sure which one) started to make bigger sounds. I then had to reset SMU two times and only then fan started to spin normally without any noise. I'm scared & worried...
Someone please help me where I went wrong.... what can I do to solve this problem..
You know I purchased this iMac for Rs.86000/- INR ($2097 approx.) ... after two months they slashed the prices by Rs.20000/- INR($487 approx.)... so this is how my luck seems to be

Hello and sorry. First, if you reset the SMU. make sure you do not hold the power button down while reconnecting the cable or it will reset the SMC incorrectly.
When you say you are logging in, are you logging onto the internet, or onto the computer/user account?
If it is intermittent than it sounds like your internet and that would be best handled by your internet provider first.

I just received this message: "*** Collection <__NSArrayM: 0x610004449540> was mutated while being enumerated." and it won't allow me to open or place any documents FROM photoshop but I can open files from finder into photoshop. HELP! I just recently got a new iMac and have faced this problem before, we thought it was a permissions error from where we rebooted the computer from. Because of this we just wiped the computer and recently re-installed everything. Now 2 days after re-installing all programs including photoshop I'm receiving these errors. Why is this happening and how can I fix it!?

ok, i've just run a specific test.
1 - Online, ensure that mail is sync'd
2 - Disable network connection, confirm that mail has moved to offline mode
3 - Delete 20 messages in a folder
4 - Conifm they have been deleted (whilst still offline)
5 - Re-enable network connection, leave machine alone for 5 minutes
6 - Confirm that messages haven't been deleted and are still in the folder untouched
7 - Whilst still online, try to delete one or more of the messages, they vanish for a moment, then re-appear
8 - ***
Can replicate this at will......surely this isn't just me?
Seems I'm back to Outlook again

How can I use aperture after receiving the full adobe suite? It won't allow me to use it. I receive a dialogue box which states previews are not allowed in aperture and the application is shut down.

Aperture is Apples version of Lightroom. This has nothing to do with Adobe. Ask on a Apple forum. You won't find many people here using this program.
