After recent update to airport on iMac, the wifi connection is lost when it goes to sleep and requires turning off wifi and turning it on to reestablish contact.

After recent update to OS on iMac, communication to airport is lost when computer goes to sleep. To reestablish connection, I need to turn wifi off then on.

same problem here.
i have a time capsule.
symptoms:
excessively searching for network
but more often than not, it cant find the correct netowrk that is correctly stored in keychain
if i try network assistant opened through safari not finding its page, then it can find the right network after i enter in the password again. it connects. but only for a few seconds then it loses the connection again.
the only fool proof workaround for me is:
1/ shut down time capsule. restart time capsule.
2/ restart mac with airport turned off.
3/ after restart manually select the network from the wireless icon in the menu bar
airport utility is a complete waste of time
old airport utility is still better.

Since upgrading to ios6, all the family's apple devices (new ipad, 2 iphone4 & itouch) are having difficulty reconnecting to the home hub wifi network. I.e, every time the lock screen comes on, the wifi connection is lost when you reopen the device and we have to reconnect through settings. This appears to be an ios6 software issue.
Is there a solution to this wifi connection issue or do we wait for a software fix?
I'd hate to think Apple is going down the Microsoft path, of passing untested software onto the user. What ever happened to Regression Testing, to ensure the existing functionality remains intact?
I bought into the Apple dream, because it was intuitive, reliable & enjoyable to use, all the things that Microsoft windows isn't.
Other issues we are experiencing are, Games are stuttering and the kids really miss the old YouTube app.
Please Mr Browett, sort these issues out.

Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.

TS3581 I recently updated my Iphone 5 to the latest software. Now when I connect to my car audio with the hotwire USB it will not display or play my music. It worked fine before the update. Is there a setting I don't know about with the new software?

I Updated my Iphone 5 and now it will not play or display in my car. I use the apple hotwire to USB to charge and play music in my car. It worked before the update. Is there a setting in the new software that needs adjusting ?

I have a similar problem. Prior to the 7.0.3 update my iPod touch worked properly and I could see the music folders, playlists and music lists. However, after the update it no longer works - I cannot see the playlists, the names are blank.
I do not believe your response properly answers the issue at hand. If the iPod worked properly before the update then it should work properly afterward. With the response and link above it appears it is Apple's stance that it is the radio manufacturer to make the radio work with every update. That is backwards and, in my opinion, irresponsible.
It should be Apples responsibility to make sure that the functionality of the device is the same both before and after an update. If they cannot do that then they should make it easy for the user to downgrade or uninstall the update to regain the previous functionality, at least until Apple can resolve the issue their update created.

Why does my iPad lose the network I'm on when it goes to sleep?

I Just moved in with someone and I have to manually join the network every time I turn my iPad on. Now all of a sudden, every time my iPad goes to sleep it loses the connection all together. I've already tried resetting the network and also location in the settings. Any other ideas?

Some things to try first:
1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
    •    Launch Settings app
    •    Tap on Wi-Fi
    •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
    •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

After recent update to 10.0.6 clips with colour correction lost right hals of the clip

After update to 10.0.6 in projects created before update, some (not all) clips with colour correction appiared with right half of the screen in total black like this:

After recent update of 31.2 Thunderbird will not properly sort address when addressing a new email.

When I try to address an email the sorting has become meaningless. It may present 4 choices that are not in ascending or descending order. The suggested addresses are not even alphabetically adjacent.

Thunderbird changed to addresses starting with the string you types to addresses containing the string you type. Thunderbird always displayed the results by popularity: The more an address is used, the higher it is listed.
The current behavior is not optimal, but is actively being worked on to be improved in the next version...

Hello Tatiana,
It sounds like you're not able to access the Internet on your wife's iPad using Wi-Fi. I found a couple of resources that will help troubleshoot Wi-Fi issues on the iPhone:

My UPAD lite does not start after recent update. I have lots of info in it. Can anybody help me to get it back? Can I somehow undo the update? Thanks

"UPAD lite?"
I expect that you mean some version of iPad.
First, 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.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod. As before, say "yes." Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time. If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device. Corrective action is simple - choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.

Does anyone know if apple is working on a solution to fix the wifi drama ( greyed/dimmed out)hundred of ppl have after recent updates?

After recent updates hundred of ppl can not connect to wifi anymore( incl myself)
Really annoying and all kinds of ideas how to fix it did not work out for me
I am out of warranty for 1mth and the apple shop did not even make a bit of afford to help
I am wondering if apple is working on a solution to fix this problem at all? Maybe with the next update?

No way they can leave all this ppl out there with this problem without doing anything about it

So my iPhone 4S started draining battery after recent update, battery got changed and it worked perfect for 3 days, all of a sudden the phone shut down and now won't stay on unless connected to mains... Claims its at 100% battery but thats impossible as it was at 30% before it shut down randomly.
Cannot receive any signal "searching" constantly.
Turns off as soon as removed from usb ... wont stay on connected to laptop!
HELP!

The iPhone includes a one year warranty. If an Apple store is not nearby, you can call AppleCare and handle an exchange under warranty over the phone. The exchange will be shipped to your door - someone must sign for the delivery so if no one will be at home, have it delivered where you work. You use the same box to return the existing iPhone back to Apple. Return shipping label and tape to reveal the box incuded - call the carrier with number incuded when the box is ready to be picked up. AppleCare will request a credit card in the event the existing iPhone is not returned within 10 days after the exchange under warranty is received.
Hardware can fail - it happens, which is why there is a one year warranty.

10.5.2 won't reinstall after recent updates to system

! You cannot install Mac OS X Update Combined on this volume. This volume does not meet the requirements for this update.
This appears after trying to update MacBook after recent either Security, Airport or Time Machine, or perhaps another update since March 11, 2008.
Anyone else seeing this?

My precaution is to startup from another disk and run Disk Utility's Repair Disk routine periodically (about once a month). You can use your Mac OS X installation disk, or create a small bootable maintenance disk like my 20GB external drive (you can even use an iPod if it's big enough). If the update is significant, such as a dot dot system update, I also do this Repair Disk just before the update.
Then BEFORE and AFTER the update, when booted back normally, I use Disk Utility's Repair Disk Permissions.
When upgrading to the next major release (Panther -> Tiger -> Leopard), I use the Archive and Install installation instead of the default Upgrade installation.
Going all the way back to Panther, on several PowerPC and one Intel Mac, I have never had a problem after doing an update using Software Update. And I install all available updates immediately.

Hello there philp_69,
If I understand correctly it sounds like your phone hasnt been recognized in iTunes on your PC since the last couple of updates. I would use the troubleshooting in the following article which will walk you through the steps one by one.
