After sleep, Pismo will not auto-reconnect to iMac's airport extreme.

I'm internet sharing with an iMac, late-2006 intel, airport extreme. If the powerbook sleeps, it will not auto-reconnect after waking. I can't even enter the password to reconnect; it displays an error message. I have to turn off-and-on the iMac's airport, and then the powerbook will connect.

Welcome to the discussions, Dan!
If the powerbook sleeps, it will not auto-reconnect after waking.
The AirPort Extreme is "always on", there are no "sleep" related adjustments on this device. The "sleep" issue is with your powerbook or the operating system that the powerbook is using.
Suggest that you post in the PowerBook Forum for your specific question.

Powerbook g3 will not auto reconnect to iMac airport after sleep

iMac is a late-2006 intel, airport extreme. I'm internet sharing. If the powerbook sleeps, it will not auto-reconnect after waking. I can't even enter the password to reconnect; it displays an error message. I have to turn off-and-on the iMac's airport, and then the powerbook auto-reconnects.

Current version of Airport Utility 6.3.1 will not allow me to configure my Airport Extreme

I am trying to extend my Airport network. I bought a couple of years' ago an Airport Express and have been using that but the signal is weak at the back of the house so I thought I would bring back into action my Airport Extreme which I have had for at least 10 years. I can still use it as my primary wi-fi source directly of the modem but I am unable to configure it in the current version of Airport Utility as a base station to extend the network. I think that the Airport Utility is incompatible with it. Is this likely? Is there a soution? Many thanks.

Unfortunately, even if it were possible to find a version of AirPort Utility that would work with the old AirPort Extreme, the old Extreme does not have the capability to "extend a wireless network" since this feature was introduced in the 2007-2008 versions of the AirPorts.
I'm afraid that you will need to add a new AirPort Express or AirPort Extreme if you need to "extend" the current wireless network that the AirPort Express now provides.

I have been using Pages and after sleeping it will not show a cursor in a new document. Using Lion

I was using Pages, put the computer to sleep, and after waking it and going to Pages, it would not show a cursor in a blank document and most of the commands were grayed out.

Carolyn,
It seems that when you woke up you were in a Pages Layout Template, rather than the word processing template you are more accustomed to.

10.9.2 upgrade and now wifi will not automatically reconnect after wake from sleep

I upgraded to 10.9.2 on my mid-2012 Macbook air and now when i wake the laptop from sleep the wifi will not automatically reconnect. I have to physically click on my network to re-join it.

Test after taking each of the following steps that you haven't already tried. Back up all data before making any changes.
1. Make sure the network is on the preferred list by following these instructions. It's important to read the article carefully, as it's the starting point for any further efforts to solve the problem. If you skip any of the steps, the problem may not be solved. Make sure the box marked
Remember networks this computer has joined
is checked.
2. Follow the instructions in this support article under the heading
Symptom: After restarting or waking from sleep, my computer might not connect to the Internet
3. Reset the PRAM.
4. Make a note of all your settings for Wi-Fi in the Network preference pane, then delete the connection from the connection list and recreate it with the same settings. You do this by clicking the plus-sign icon below the connection list, and selecting Wi-Fi as the interface in the sheet that opens. Select Join other network from the Network Name menu, then select your network. Enter the password when prompted and save it in the keychain.
5. From the Location menu at the top of the Network preference pane, select Edit Locations. A sheet will drop down. Click the plus-sign button to create a new location. Give it any name you want. In the new location, set up the Wi-Fi service with the same settings you used before. Click Apply and test.
6. Launch the Keychain Access application. Search for and delete all AirPort network password items that refer to the network. Make a note of the password first.
7. Repair permissions on the startup volume.
8. Turn off Bluetooth and test.
9. Reset the System Management Controller.
10. Reinstall OS X.

Captivate 7: slide with mouse will not auto advance after publishing

After I export my Captivate video, any slide that has a mouse object on it does not auto advance. I suspected that maybe the clicking sound file default attached to the action may have become corrupted, so I opened the sound file attached to "single-click" from Captivate. In the VisualClicks folder, there were no sound files. So, I opened the ClickSounds folder and attached the Mouse.mp3 file to this action. After publishing the training, the slide still will not auto advance. The slides that do not have the mouse action advance automatically as they should. The sound file may not be the issue (going to try to uncheck all of the Mouse Click Sound check boxes and republish to see if that helps).
Was hoping to find a solution for future videos.
Each slide is basically a layer of audio > slide > png file > the occasional smart object and/or text > mouse. I have no quizzes or video.
When publishing I use the following setup swf/html5 with swf + html5 checked and scalable HTML content checked. We use Google Chrome and I've had numerous people try my HTML link after I've uploaded all files and everyone has the same issue.
1- Do you happen to know why the mouse action would cause the slide to not auto advance, and if so please let me know a solution so the user doesn't have to click next. If the mouse itself isn't the culprit, any other suggestions on what could cause this?
2- Is there a way to make changes to the audio or override the mouse properties on all slides? I tried right clicking and "use the current mouse pointer for all slides" but it didn't change any of the properties. Thankfully my video is only 110 slides or it would have been even more painful.
Captivate 7
Windows 8.1

Of course! Here ya go
For the record, I did create a new project with only two slides to try and duplicate the issue. I had the same problem. I unchecked the Mouse Click Sound check box, republished and the slide auto advanced. I'm wondering if a default sound file was somehow moved or deleted? I discussed uninstalling and reinstalling C7 onto my laptop, but that's a frustrating solution haha

After updating with Security Update 2010-001, Quicken will not auto update. Auto update function in Preferences are also inop. Numerous posts in Macbook discussions about similar problems with other apps.

Installed Security Update 2012-001. Now Quicken will not auto save and the auto save function in Preferences cannot be changed. There are numerous similar comments in the Macbook discussions about other apps. Come on, Apple, we need some help out here!

Howdy,
Apparently some are reporting that this causes the older PowerPC (PPC) applications that are supported in 10.6 via 'Rosetta' to crash upon attempting to open/save/print using any dialog box, or fail in other similar ways such as simply not printing or quitting, or freezing/hanging/crashing of the application.
I have read of some companies that have indeed submitted proper bug reports to Apple, but that is not a guarantee of a bug-fix being issued.
You might wish to read:
http://www.macintouch.com/readerreports/snowleopard/index.html#d02feb2012
If you are unsure if you are still using PowerPC apps, if the application is currently running, look under the 'Activity Monitior' (in Applications -> Utilities), or alternatively you could check in the System Profiler, Applications. Check the column "Type".
Here is a fairly simple way you can restore you system and restore you applications functionality again, if you don't have a recent clone or good Time Machine backup that you can restore from. If you do, restore from your backup prior to having installed the Security Update 2012-001.
Time Machine restore: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1427
If you are restoring a backup made by a Mac to the same Mac
With your backup drive connected, start up your Mac from the Lion recovery partition (Command-R at startup) or Mac OS X v10.6 installation disc. Then use the "Restore From Time Machine Backup" utility. Select the backup prior to your issues, and it will be restored back to the state it was in at that time.
If you can't easily restore from a backup, you can instead do the following:
- You first start by reinstalling your OS X 10.6.x, this will preserve all your user data, your applications, no worries there.
- Then install the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1 (links provided below)
- Make sure you're printers are showing up correctly in your system preferences, if not, re-add the printers
- Then finally, run the Apple Software Update (by pulling down the Apple Menu), and install any and all remaining updates, except do not then re-install the Security Update 2012-001. It is possible that you may have to reboot after installing some of the updates, and you may even need to run it a 2nd time to make sure that you've got all updates, except NOT the Security Update 2012-001.

My iPhone 6 will not auto rotate after installation of version 8.0.2. The auto rotate lock is off in settings and in the Kindle app, but nothing will go to landscape.

Since the installation of 8.0.2 my iPhone 6 will not auto rotate in any app. I have locked/unlocked the feature in settings several times using the command bar but to no avail. I read using the Kindle app and it also is locked in portrait whether the lock is on or off.

Your auto lock got turned on. Swipe up on the screen and tap the upper right icon. This will allow it to work again!
Actually, the OP tried that (six months ago) and it didn't work. They resolved the issue (six months ago) by updating their system software (six months ago).

My iPad will not auto-connect to my network. I need to type in a security key each time. Is there a way aound this?

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

Every time my MacBook Pro is put to sleep, it will not connect to the internet when reopened unless diagnostic assistant is performed. Ridiculous!

Why Safari 6.0 will not auto complete the password ?

Why Safari 6.0 will not auto complete the password ? even when the option is selected in autofill tab, and the user-password are listed in the password tab ?
It used to work fine before I upgraded to mountain lion.
Tks

Same problem for me since upgrading to ML. Safari remembers autofills for some passwords but not others. For example my web mail password was no longer auto filled. Checked in the keychain list and all the info was there. Therefore I deleted this and tried again - but Safari did not offer to remember the password. Than ran an old script I had that is designed to "Removed autocomplete=off from 0 forms and from 2 form elements, and removed onsubmit from 0 forms. After you type your password and submit the form, the browser will offer to remember your password." Safari then offered to remember the password. I accepted this and checked that the password was then saved in keychain - it was. However, next time I tried to access the email Safari once more did not auto complete. Very frustrating, especially as some auto completes do work. I hope apple sort this out soon.

My Iphone 4s will not auto lock. Any suggestions?

Up until recently, my 4s would lock after the 1 minute that I requested. I set a passcode, now it will not auto lock at all. I've checked all settings and even disabled passcode. Still will not auto lock....

Settings>General>AutoLock = set to 1 minute.
If that doesnt work then follow these steps.
Settings>General>Reset>Reset All settings>Then Settings>General>AutoLock= set to 1 minute. - Test again
If doesnt work then you will want to restore the phone and setup as new, not restore from a backup - if it comes down to that repost and I can explain those steps

TS1398 Since I upgraded to iOS 7.0.2 my phone will not auto-connect to the home WiFi network.

I upgraded my iPhone 4S to iOS 7.0.2 and now my phone will not auto-connect to the home wifi network. Each time I leave and return to within range of the network I have to remember to manually connect, otherwise it continues to use 4G for data. The credentials are saved (all I have to do is tap it to connect) but just won't happen automatically any more.
Is anyone else seeing this problem?

Tried the reset multiple times. No go. Before the IOS 7.0,2 update my devices were connecting to home WIFI eventually.

What MacBook? How did you try to 'play' CDs? What happens? Does it happen with a specific CD, some CDs, or all CDs? Does it happen with data CDs, or audio CDs, or both? Does it happen with commercially-pressed CD, or CD-R, or both?

Since I upgraded to Maverick when computer sleeps it will not wake up but must be restarted? Also password to icloud is never saved?

Since I upgraded to Maverick when computer sleeps it will not wake up but must be restarted? Also password to icloud is never saved?

I read someone said you can tap on "other" when selecting which wifi you connect to and then entering the exact wifi name of the network you wish to join and the password and then joining that network allowed the password to be saved. Also with iOS 6 the minimum length of the password needs to be 8 characters. Maybe you password on your router is less than 8 characters long

After sleep, Pismo will not auto-reconnect to iMac's airport extreme.
