Airport Icon wont stay turned on..

Hi Guys
For somereasom today, my Airport icon on the top right hand of my screen wont stay illuminated and thus, my internet connection keeps dying.
Its fine on my Macbook Pro but not on my Mac Pro desktop...?
At the moment there is just a blank icon with an explination mark on it - any ideas?
Thanx a lot in advance for your help

I seem to be having the same problem. We were in Mexico on vacation, and on the second day I was taking some photos near the water with some highways and some water splashed on the camera, but it seems to still be working for the next few hours. When I stop taking pictures and came back to the camera a few hours after, I tried turning it on and the set date and time settings screen was displayed. After I entered the settings, I was able to resume taking pictures. However, when I turned the camera off, then on again, that same screen displayed it again.
The next day, I went to turn on the camera, and the lands would not extend fully and will turn off main extension. When I held down the power button, it would retract back but not all the way. If I hit the playback button, I was only then able to fully close the lens. I'm thinking now in hindsight, I should have not tried to turn it on, and just put it in a bag of rice right away, but it's probably too late for that now, and since I'm thinking the water that got on it was salt water from the ocean, it might have corroded some terminals or some electronics inside, I'm not sure. But I don't think I want to pay $200 for Canon to just look at it, and then come back to me saying they can't fix the camera. The warranty has just run out, and I think I might be better off just buying a new camera.

Hi,
What is the model/product of your 410 (is it a C410 ?) There are few models/products around. You definiteley need Software and Drivers. Please download the following package and install to your Windows 7 (64bit) machine:

HT201412 New Ipad wont stay turned on kleeps shutting down and restarting over and over again

my ipad starts to turn on gets to the apple logo then for a split second the home screen appears then the ipad turns off, then the apple logo appears and this just keeps going on and on. I can not get it to stay on long enough to do a reboot any ideas?

Install the iOS update 7.1. It's supposed to correct this problem. You may have to connect your iPad to your computer and downloade the update.

Desktop "Hard disk" Icon wont stay were I put it.....

Ok this is REALLY annoying me. I have tried to move my desktop "disk" icon (the link to your personal hard disk) to a different position on my screen, I want it at the bottom near the right hand side, every time I move it stays where I want it untill I log out or restart, upon loging in it has moved back to its default position in the top right of the screen.
I have tried many things:
Trashing various .plst files
Various combinations of "snap to grid" and "arrange Icons by". But to have the icon where I want i have to have both arrange by and snap to grid UNCHECKED.
I know if you put an icon to close to the side of the screen then it will be moved automaticaly so I have also tried placing the icon dead centre on the screen and then restarting, the icon still moves back to its default position.
This is extremely annoying and any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks Alot!

No Ideas anyone? This is such an annoying problem!

Add on task bar icon wont stay displayed

I've installed the lastest Firefox - Firefox Setup Stub 27.0.1 on my PC running Windows 7. I've installed the add on for gmail notifications and using the customise option dragged the gmail icon into the status bar at the top right hand of the screen. But when I close and reopen Firefox the Gmail icon isnt there. No matter how many times I drag it to the same position it is alway gone when I reopen Firefox.
Also the 'Enable/Disable' button for all my add ons isnt working. If I click 'Disable' it doesnt disable and the button stays showing 'Disable'.

Thanks for your help and for the link

My iPad is stuck in recovery mode, and wont stay turned off in order to use redsnow.

Alright so my iPad is stuck in recovery mode. I did some research and arrived at redsnow to fix the problem. In order to use redsnow's recovery fix option I have to power down my iPad. When I hold the sleep button though, no "slide to power off" appears, the screen just goes black then reboots into recovery mode 3 or 4 seconds later. Restarting it via holding the sleep and home buttons doesn't do anything. How do I get it to stay powered down? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

I believe I may have used the wrong terminology. My iPad screen looks identical to the picture shown in the link, which is what I reffered to as Recovery Mode. I was looking for a way to return to normal functionality, without having to restore my iPad. I have never backed up this iPad and would prefer not to lose any information on it. If this is impossible then I will just restore it and carry on.
My main issue with restoring it is that I don't want to lose the pictures on it. If the restore doesn't erase the pictures, then I apologize for wasting your time and will be restoring it immediatly. However if I will lose the pictures than I'd prefer any other method of exiting this screen.

Airport icon turned grey, no networks shown

G4 Quicksilver running 10.4.11
Last night after several years trouble free operation Airport on my wife's G4 suddenly started cutting out and then coming back in. Sometimes it was off for a few seconds, sometimes for a few minutes. Restarting didn't cure the problem.
This morning it was steady for several hours, then started cutting out/in, now it seems to be mainly out.
What happens is this. The black airport icon turns to grey with all bars still showing and connection is lost. When this happens available networks were initially sometimes shown in the drop down menu, sometimes not (usually there are four or five neighbouring networks shown).
When networks are shown clicking on ours sometimes, but not always, brought it back on.
When no networks are shown going via ‘Other’ and entering our details initially brought it back but no longer.
At present the Airport icon is showing grey with four bars all the time.
I have tried reseating the Airport card and checking the aerial connection but these seem OK. (I’m assuming that the existence of four bars at all times shows that a signal is being received so card problems are unlikely; is that right?)
I have deleted com.apple.airport.preferences.plist
I have zapped PRAM and repaired permissions.
I booted from an external HD (10.4.2) and the same problems appeared. The fact that the same problem exists with another boot disk suggests to me that the problem lies in the G4 rather than software.
Any ideas, please?
(I started a similar thread in the G4 forum which has had no takers so far and as Tiger forums seems to get more Airport traffic I thought I would try here.)

+”Get Temperature Monitor - 4.51 to see if it's heat related”+
I’ve used Temperature Monitor in the past and it only shows drives, not CPUs on our G4s. (Reading round this seems to be a problem with the current version and I can’t find any earlier ones.) However I reinstalled TM and it showed drive temperatures going up and then staying very steady at around 35° for the boot drive (newer) and a bit lower for the original HD. I haven’t actually observed the CPU fan running but air is definitely moving through its vent. The CPU/fan area is clear of dust.
However I’m beginning to go off my temperature theory as the pattern of the problem has changed.
It originally started to show itself when the Mac had been in use for some hours and would then mean that Airport would not show any network virtually continuously until shutdown. Now at boot it may be OK for several hours, a few minutes or not at all. During the day it will sometimes come back for some hours or just minutes.
In all cases the symptoms are the same. The Airport icon turns grey but retains four bars. No networks are shown in the dropdown menu. Turning Airport off/on has no effect. Sometimes it will return on its own, sometimes networks are shown in the menu and connection is then usually possible.
I have now tried booting it from the backup HD I use for my G4 (10.4.11) and the problem as described was present from the outset. To be strictly accurate I booted it from its own startup disk and Airport was OK but when I restarted using the other drive via Startup Prefs Airport showed five grey bars but no networks.
I have also rebooted the router in case that was involved.
With my limited understanding of what makes Macs tick all this suggests that the problem must be within the G4 either in data (but PRAM has been zapped) or hardware rather than being a system issue.

I was mid facetime call and my phone turned off and wouldnt turn on until i plugged it in. then the date was wrong,it said no service, and wont let me turn wifi on. also it wont stay on for more than a few minutes at a time

i was mid facetime call and my phone turned off and wouldnt turn on until i plugged it in. then the date was wrong,it said no service, and wont let me turn wifi on. also it wont stay on for more than a few minutes at a time. Help?

Sounds like a hardware failure.
Make an appointment at the genius bar and take it in for them to look at. It will probably need to be replaced.

Screen Cracked and replaced, now phone wont stay on, and now i cant get it to turn back on

about 3 days ago i dropped my phone and the screen cracked. Although it was cracked it still worked fine with no issues and the new ios6 was installed prior to it breaking. I brought it to a iphone repair store where they fixed the screen. After a day i noticed the phone just turned itself off so i put it on the charger and returned and it was working. ever since then it has now shut off randomly for no reason, battery was either fully charged or more than 50%. I hooked it up to my computer to restore it today and it seemed to work for about 3 or 4 hours until it started to turn off on its own. i would restart it and it would work for a shorter and shorter period of time until now it wont stay on at all. i plugged it into the charger and it goes through the apple powerup screen and when it turns on it says searching for network in the top left corner. when i press apps and such it is very laggy and it eventually freezes and the screen fades to black and the cell phone turns off. I cannot get it to stay on now, even when it stays plugged into the charger...HELP PLEASE!!! is this an apple issue or something the repair shop may be responisble for?????

The reapair shop is probably responsible. And now that you took it to a third party and not to apple store, Apple will not touch your phone at all. So you will probaly have to buy a new one or go back to the reapir shop and hope they can fix it.

IMac wifi does not stay connceted - will reconnect on click on airport icon

My iMac will connect to my airport basestation, and will stay connected for about 30 seconds. The internet will then suddenly stop working (no signal drop, still have an ip address, and still connected tot he basestation). The resolution is to simply click the airport icon in the top right - just to bring up the menu - and the internet will start working again. I did a ping to google.com, and it just suddenly stops, then after clicking the icon, it starts again. It is extremly strange behavior. I have other computer connected to the same basestation, and have been able to exclude the basestation as a cause to this. Any ideas? I am to the point where I may just reinstall os x. Thanks for any help!

AIRPORT WONT STAY CONNECTED

AIRPORT WONT STAY CONNECTED

Sorry, but that's not a lot of information to be able to help you. By AirPort are you referring to the built-in wireless in your Mac or one of the AirPort routers? If it is the former, what is the make & model of the wireless router that you are attempting to connect it to? If it's the latter, what is the model of your AirPort and what are you trying to connect to it that won't stay connected?

Hello, pravin729.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
I understand that your iPod touch will not turn on. I would start with going through the troubleshooting steps in the article below.

The "n" upgrade only works on the Core 2 Duo models - those had the 802.11n spec cards in them. It won't install on cards that don't support the '.11n spec.
Right in the description from the Apple Store:
"These Macs have the 802.11n hardware built-in:
MacBook Pro with Intel Core 2 Duo
MacBook with Intel Core 2 Duo
Mac Pro with AirPort Extreme option
iMac with Intel Core 2 Duo (except the 17-inch, 1.83GHz iMac)
Please make sure you have one of these Mac computers before purchasing the 802.11n Enabler software. It is not compatible with other Mac models."
You can get your Airport icon back through System Preferences/Network/Airport - the checkbox for "Show Airport status in menu bar"
