Airport inactive no IP address...corrupted driver?    Please help!!!

Hi All, 
My Mac minis airport went down today and would not accept my router password. After over an hour on the phone with netgear tech support they suspect an issue with a corrupt driver.  Offered to fix it for $180 which unfortunately I do not have.   Any suggestions are greatly appreciated!  Thank You!

I doubt a corrupt driver myself.

    I have macbook pro 13" I want to know how to copy files from my mac to the external Toshiba Hard Drive. I can't even delete files from my external hard drive. please help me my macbook HD is almost full and I have to copy my images to the Toshiba HD

    To delete files from your external HDD, attach it to your MBP and drag the unwanted files to trash and then empty trash.
    Then you select the files that you want to transfer by 'drag and drop' to the external HDD and trash the files on your MBP.

  • Photo/Images will not save in address book. Please help

    I am on a macbook 13 aluminum running 10.5.8 and when I try to add an image to a contact in my address book it does not work. I can select one or drag one onto the image icon and it will show the crop image box, but when I click SET, it does not work. Once set is pushed it just closes the image box and returns to the contacts information with no image on the card. HOWEVER it DOES work on my own owner contact card (either using the built in camera or dragging an image - the one with the little person next to it. Please help.
    ALSO, does anyone have any suggestion on the best method to have attached images of business cards associated with the contact? Obviously once I get these images working in the first place. Thank you

    I solved this problem with these directions, although not specified for my problem, moving the address book folder out of the application data worked.
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1134021
    After fixing the filesystem issues, which you say you’ve already done, try re-creating the Address Book files that may have become corrupt, one at a time, as follows — or restore them from a backup if you have one:
    1. Quit Address Book, Mail, and any other applications that might use Address Book for something. Or just quit all applications to be on the safe side.
    2. In the Finder, go to ~/Library/Application Support/AddressBook/. Make a backup copy of this folder, e.g. by dragging it to the Desktop while holding the Option (Alt) key down. This is where all your contacts are stored.
    3. Go to ~/Library/Preferences/. Move com.apple.AddressBook.plist and com.apple.AddressBook.abd.plist (if it exists) out of there (e.g. to the Desktop). Check whether the problem is fixed.
    4. If Address Book keeps crashing, go to ~/Library/Caches/ and move the Address Book and com.apple.AddressBook folders to the Trash (there is no need to empty the Trash yet). Check whether the problem is fixed.
    5. If Address Book keeps crashing, go to ~/Library/Application Support/AddressBook/ and trash any ABPerson.skIndex files you may see there. Check whether the problem is fixed.
    6. If Address Book keeps crashing, try again trashing both AddressBook.data and any ABPerson.skIndex files that may have been re-created, then rename AddressBook.data.previous to AddressBook.data.
    7. If Address Book keeps crashing, try moving the entire AddressBook folder out of ~/Library/Application Support/.
    The above procedure may introduce synchronization issues if you use .Mac or iSync to synchronize your Address Book with other computers or devices, so be sure to back up your Address Book data now if the problem is fixed.
    Note: For those not familiarized with the ~/ notation, it refers to the user’s home folder. You can easily locate any of the folders referred to in this post by copying the folder path here, doing Go > Go to Folder in the Finder, and pasting the folder path there.

  • AirPort Extreme port forwarding, problems occurring. Please help.

    Yesterday I discovered the game I have been playing allows for home servers. We are allowed  to host our own game server for other people to join and play along. This game uses ports: UDP 19132 and TCP 19132 (which I think is optional, but UDP is defiantly needed) to host a server at home. We are paired with Comcast internet, using an AirPort Extreme (latest firmware) router with airport utility (latest firmware) on an iMac (1 generation behind I think).
    Now the problem:
    - I want to host this game server on my laptop! Not the iMac!
    - The laptop uses Ubuntu and the brand is HP. It is connected wirelessly to my AirPort Extreme router. Now since it is not connected directly to the router, and is not an apple product I am not able to change the router settings from my laptop (I can deal with this, I'll just go downstairs and change the settings on the iMac).
    - Yesterday I went into AirPort Utility. I proceeded to click 'Edit' on the router picture in airPort Utility. Then I went to the tab where you can reserve a dchp or port forward. I added a new port aimed at: UDP public: 19132 ; TCP public: 19132 ; Private IP: 1.0.1.201 ; UDP private: 19132 ; TCP private: 19132 (I did not mess with the 'reserve dchp' setting). Then I went to my laptop and used a VPN to test out the connectivity of the port and server. Sadly I couldn't connect to my server it didn't work. I then deleted the port since it didn't work.
    - Today I did exactly what I did yesterday, except... I reserved a dchp for my laptop (keep in mind I had no idea what I was doing and i still dont) using its hardware mac adress. I also named the dchp reserve: mylaptop. Then i restarted the router, went to port checking websites and they still said my external ip had port 19132 closed.
    - I know for sure it's not my server or it's properties.
    FYI: I used multiple port checker websites after completing my port forwarding, each and everyone of those sites said my external IP address has port 19132 closed when obviously I opened them. I also tried to bridge my linksys wrt54gsv4 router to my AirPort Extreme router and tried to port from the router menu of the linksys router. That ultimately failed.
    Please help, thank you for reading all of this.

    Hi, thanks for the reply. Been pulling my hair out trying to get this to work. Paid so much money just to have it connected to the playstation but its not letting me do that.
    I have a 60gb Playstation 3 not a Xbox 360, so it comes with wifi.
    I have been trying this non stop and about to give up. I hae been following what the playstation manual says. Its telling me to scan for access points but everytime I do this, it just has SSID: default, Security: none, Signal Strength: 45%.
    I dont understand this cos I named my SSID as Garcia Home which shows on my mac and it also has full bars for the airport on my menu bar. The playstation is located in the room next to mine so it can't be 35-40% only for signal strength.

  • Inactive memory takes all the memory - please help

    I have a Macbook Pro - August 2009, upgraded version to 2.66 MHZ, advance display card, Dual core.
    I recently upgraded the RAM to 8GB (Kingston) to clear more memory for my massive application use, the thing is it didn't solve anything because the issue I had problems with - Inactive Memory, wasn't resolved.
    Inactive memory supposed to hold the memory for the apps you closed in case you'll run them once again, but it NEVER clears the memory, I can see the "blue" color taking all the free mem and the computer slows down! no free mem what so ever.
    Now the Inactive mem grows enormously and gets to be more than 4GB, it has the same effect, the memory runs out!
    Is there a way to fix it? I'm going crazy with that.. what a terrible design!
    iFreeMem doesn't work on the 8GB, I'm at a loss..
    Please help!
    Thanks,
    Eli.

    Sounds like you have never done a PRAM reset or a SMC reset. Do both and see if this helps:
    _SMC RESET_
    • Shut down the computer.
    • Plug in the MagSafe power adapter to a power source, connecting it to the Mac if its not already connected.
    • On the built-in keyboard, press the (left side) Shift-Control-Option keys and the power button at the same time.
    • Release all the keys and the power button at the same time.
    • Press the power button to turn on the computer.
    _PRAM RESET_
    • Shut down the computer.
    • Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command, Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
    • Turn on the computer.
    • Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys. You must press this key combination before the gray screen appears.
    • Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
    • Release the keys.

  • All Emails Sent to Verizon Email Addresses Are Blocked - Please Help

    Hello,
    Email messages that our company sends to Verizon recipients are being blocked by the anti-spam system. I have copied a sample failure message below. I have submitted whitelist requests several times, but get automated messages in return saying the IP is dynamically assigned (see below). Our IP address is static, not dynamically assigned. No spam is going out from the system, and we are not on any of the blacklists. Our emails to [email protected] and [email protected] are also being blocked, so I have found nowhere else to turn for assistance.
    Can you please help or assign an agent to help us in this matter? We have many customers who are not receiving their online purchases or responses to their requests for assistance from us because Verizon is blocking all emails to them from our servers. We certainly don't want to have to post to our online store that we cannot sell to or assist anyone with a Verizon email address.
    The mail server in question is: *******
    IP address: ******
    Your help would be greatly appreciated.
    Thank you,

  • Protocol Confusion of freeTDS jdbc driver, please help!

    I use freeTDS jdbc driver to connect to MS SQL 2000. In my programme, firstly I need to select sth out, and base on this update the other field in the same table. TOC will like that
    Statement stmt1 = conn.createStatement();
    ResultSet rs1 = stmt1.executeQuery("select sth from table");
    stmt1.executeUpdate("update table set field1 = 'xxx'");
    exception throw: java.sql.SQLException: Protocol confusion. Got a 0x79 packet
    I checked from the source of TDS driver, this exception throws when the sql query output is not a resultset.
    These 2 querys are prefectly okay individually, I tried to reverse the order, doesn't work neither. Even I disconnect the DB Connection and reconnect it before running the 2nd query, it won't help.
    Please help!

    I haven't used freetds, but seems like defaul version is 5.0. Try it with 7.0 and see it works better. By the way, JDBC driver's readme says that it was only tested with MSSQL 6.5 and 7.0.
    ---- FAQ from freetds.org ----
    Do I need to configure anything?
    When you untar the package you will need to run:
    $ ./configure
    You also have the following options you can add to the configure statement:
    --with-tdsver=VERSION
    specify the TDS version to use
    (4.2, 4.6, 5.0, or 7.0) [default is 5.0].
    --enable-msdblib
    enable Microsoft APIs and behaviour for DBLib
    --enable-dbmfix
    rename dbopen() to tdsdbopen() as a work around for dbm name conflict
    --with-gnu-ld
    assume the C compiler uses GNU ld [default=no]
    --enable-shared
    build shared libraries [default=yes]
    --enable-static
    build static libraries [default=yes]
    IMPORTANT You must build with TDS version 4.2 to access a MSSQL server or Sybase prior to 10.0! TDS 7.0 may also be used to talk to MS SQL 7 and above.

  • Adobe Premeire Pro Installation Failed - Application Manager Corrupted.  Please help!

    Hello all,
    I just recently purchased a subscription license for Adobe Premeire Pro CS6, and tried to download it following the instructions in the confirmation e-mail.   After installing the application manager and downloading, extracting, and installing the program, I received the error message seen in the image below, "Installation Failed - Adobe Application Manager is corrupted and must be reinstalled".  
    So of course I googled it, and found that this was a pretty common problem, and found one site that recommended re-installing the AAM with the following link:
    http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/download-error-403-launching-aam.html
    So I did that too.  In addition to restarting my computer, and also tried to download the program directly bypassing the AAM following the instructions on this page:
    http://prodesigntools.com/adobe-cs6-direct-download-links.html
    All of which was unsuccesful.   I've got a video for my Mom's 60th birthday that I HAVE to complete this weekend, and Adobe's support is closed on the weekends.  I didn't think installing something from a company like Adobe would be this difficult.  Makes me wish I had a Mac.    Can anyone PLEASE help me get Premeire (and Encore) downloaded and installed? 
    Any help would be hugely appreciated.   Thanks,
    Erik

    Hi Jeff,
    I am experiencing the same exact problem and am unable to resolve it.  I've called Tier 1 support (Indian Call Center), and went through all the steps that I have already done myself (as outlined above) with no luck.  I'm still getting the corruption error. 
    I am using Parallels Workstation Extreme and it is being installed on a Virtual Machine.  The "Extreme" part of Parallels Workstation allows me to assign a discrete graphics card to the VM.  This is uing Intel's vt-d technology for Directed IO.  You mentioned above that you had fired up an instance of Windows 7 64-bit and it worked just fine.  But for some reason, I am unable to duplicate the same success.  The case is now being escalated to "higher" support.  Here is my setup:
    - Parallels Workstation Extreme VM - Windows 7 64-bit
    - Subscription to Creative Cloud
    - Clean Install does not work
    - Not a part of any domain, just workgroup
    - Home PC, so it connects directly to a router and then to Cox (ISP)
    - Has direct assignment of a Network card, meaning the network card is not a bridged connection (the VM gets it's own NIC)
    - User account is already Administrator, but tried to "Run as administratot" with no luck.
    - After install on the clean Windows didn't work, tried using the Adobe Cleanup Tool - doesn't work either
    - Disabled all start up programs from msconfig - doesn't work
    - Verified that the (.exe) does work, but coping the same (.exe) to another computer and it works.
    I would really appreciate any advice that you may have!
    Thanks Jeff!

  • HP dv4t not detecting hard drive, please help!

    Hello, its been just a little over a year since I've bought my HP dvt, and of course the problems start as soon as my warranty has ended.. It's been working fairly fine most of the year, and then just all of a sudden while not even doing anything of importance on computer last week I got a blue screen error..
    Ever since then I have had so much problems. At first it just started out with closing the screen and reopening it crashed the laptop in a couple minutes..
    The main problem now is, it just does not detect the hard drive when booting up! Sometimes (rarely) it does though.. I thought it was a windows problem, so I did fresh clean install of Windows 7 and reformatted the hard drive. Then I ran CHKDSK and it did it stuff and said volume clean at the end.. It worked perfectly for a couple of hours, was able to close screen and open with no problems. I downloaded "Hard drive sentinel" to monitor my hdd health, and it said 90% which is apparently excellent. Yet as I was installing adobe reader, it crashed, got the blue screen of death and has not been able to boot up since
    Can anyone tell what is the problem with it? Anyone else have similar problem? I've tried to reformat again with CD but it doesnt even recognize any drive to install on..
    Important thing to note is that, in the BIOS screen when i run the HARD DISK TEST, it does recognize it! So i dont understand why it doesn't load the operating system or cant see the hard drive anywhere else!!
    What is at fault even? Is the motherboard dead? Althought the bios screen loads fine so does that mean its OK? Is it the hard drive? CHKDSK and the hdd health monitor thing said it was ok right before the crashes..
    Please help, I have my first computer science lab in like 2 days with my laptop breaking just a couple days before it with barely any money left to buy a new laptop

    "computer always freezes at 56%"
    Time to replace your Hard Drive. BACK UP NOW!!!
    This will be the 3rd HD in a new HP HDX 18 for me (6 months old).
    Open up the HD bay and take a look at the model of the HD.
    If it is a SEAGATE MOMENTUS 7200.4  they are known to fail in as little as 1 month from install, and do not last more than 6 months.
    Google the brand and you will see that most people are reccomending that you remove the SEAGATE product ASAP (data recovery is next to impossible) and replace it with something else.
    I had just finished setting up the PC as I wanted it, OS, programs / Bios, software upgrades, then without warning the 2nd HD went.
    I lost EVERYTHING in my C drive, was just preparing to do a full BU and Mirror Image after deleting both from my D and External Drive.
    HP is replacing one piece of crap with another, I will be shopping for a different brand for the C drive after the laptop comes back from repair.
    There seems to be no end to this BS with SEAGATE drives.
    DO A FULL BU NOW!!!

  • Blinking folder with question mark, and disk utility doesnt recognise hard drive, please help!!!

    So today i was using my macbook pro and for some reason my CD/DVD drive was causing noise when i put a DVD inside it, and for some reason it did not recognise my DVD. I force ejected it using the restart and clicking, but after that my computer showed a blinking folder and question mark during start up. I restarted my computer to Recovery HD, but instead it took me to internet Recovery HD (i have mountain lion), and so i went to disk utility to repair my disk, but in the left it did not recognise my hard drive. Please help! Im not that experienced in computing!

    Sounds like some sort of power issue and now your drive is not working.
    You'll have to take this to Apple for repair.
    You should read this if you don't have recent backups of your data off the machine.
    My computer is not working, is my personal data lost?

    We would need to know what operating system you installed but I am going to guess it is Windows 7.It would help more to know if it is 32 or 64 bit. Without that info I cannot link you to anything specific.
    This Forum has a Windows 7 upgrade guide specifically for your laptop:
    Upgrade Guide
    Your laptop has the AMD processor I believe and the network (LAN) driver is part of the main chipset (nVidia nForce) driver, which is absolutely critical to getting your laptop to work properly.

    Try deleting the Fireworks Preferences.txt. That will restore
    all
    program defaults the next time you load FW. If that doesn't
    do it, check
    for missing or corrupted fonts.

  • Anyone using sata_promise w/ SATA drives, please help.

    A recently submitted a kernel patch to ensure that PATA ports are detected on Promise FastTrak controllers with both PATA and SATA ports. I have no way of testing SATA drives with this patch. Could someone using one of these controllers with SATA drives please patch a kernel and see if everything is still good?
    Bug Report #4770

    I'm using sata_promise with a SATA HD. Unfortunately, since Linux 2.6.17 it doesn't want to boot anymore (kernel oops on startup). For now I am using  2.6.15-archck which I still had lying around fortunately, though 2.6.16 also worked for me.
    Do you by any chance know about this problem? According to linux changes, this has happened to the promise driver:
    * Add support for the Promise Fasttrak TX4300/TX4310 4-port PCI SATA controllers based on the PDC40719 chip to sata_promise driver (commit)
    But that was actually a very minor patch, I guess some other promise/sata related change broke it.
