Airport issues after 10.6.7 upgrade

I have a MacBook Pro and after update to 10.6.7 (combo) I'm having a very unstable connection through Airport Express.
Sometimes when it happens I just get my wife's Macbook (10.6.5) and on her MB everything is ok, same thing using my iPhone, works fine, but my MBP cannot connect on internet but keeps connected over my home wireless network. So a workaround is turn airport off and on, but this works for a while and the issue comes back!
Sad, very sad!

After installing the combo update, did you repair permissions and restart your computer?
System Preferences/Internet & Network/Network
Unlock the padlock
Locations: Automatic
Highlight Airport
Click the Assist Me button
In the popup window click the Diagnostic button.
System Preferences/Network- Unlock padlock. Highlight Airport. Network Name-select your name. Click on the Advanced button. Airport/Preferred Networks-delete all that is not your network.
Place a check mark next to "Remember networks this computer has joined." Click the OK button and lock the padlock. Restart your computer.

Airport Issue After Waking From Sleep (White Unibody MacBook)

Hi all. On my new white unibody MacBook I have an Airport issue that always occurs after I wake the MacBook from sleep. I'm wondering if any of you have a similar issue and/or might not how to solve it.
Basically, when I wake the MacBook from sleep, it connects to my wireless network (and to whichever network I happen to be using at the time). A few seconds later, it will drop the connection, an exclamation mark will appear on top of the Airport icon on the menu bar, and when I click on the icon I see "Alert: No Internet Connection."
Then, if I just sit and wait, eventually Airport will connect to the network. But I have to wait -- selecting the network from the available list or turning Airport off and on doesn't help. And sometimes waiting isn't enough -- I sometimes have to go to "Create Network ..." and start all over to get a connection.
I've upgraded to 10.6.2 and the issue persists. I'd appreciate any help.

My wife's Macbook has EXACTLY the same problem and I've been through dozens of suggestions trying to fix it and the problem still persists.
The problem started right after I upgraded to Snow Leopard but also installed an Airport Extreme router and WPA2 wireless encryption. I've deleted all the networks, changed the order to put the Airport as the highest preference, deleted all the keys on the keychain, ran DiskUtility, all to no avail.
I'm not sure if this is somehow related to the Airport Extreme or occurs with any router. Also, have another MacBook Pro (unibody), and it does't have this problem connecting to the same Airport Extreme.
The other factor is it is intermittent --- and doesn't always fail. Rebooting the Macbook or the router will get it to re-connect, as will shutting off and turning on the Airport several times. But that's not a solution to the problem.
Apple needs to pay attention to this as many people are now reporting the problem.

Authorization issue after the Support packs upgrade

We're having problem on authorization issue after the SP upgrade.
One issue if "You are not authorized to call up line item display" using FCH1 and FS10N tcodes.
And the SU53 showing problem on S_TCODE FAGLL03.
How are we going to solve this issue? We dont want to add this missing auth object on all our finance roles.
Thank you in advance.

How can i send you the trace file? What is your email address?
If I were you, I won't do that. Did you not ever sign some confidentiality agreement? I wonder.
Anyhoo... (copy right @ David)
What are the objects been caught in category RC=4, RC=12?
Relate them with functional aspect of the transaction (error screen)
Edited : You can paste RC=4, RC=12 objects here without customer specific value if you want to.

WiFi issue after 6.1.2 upgrade

I upgraded my OS to 6.1.2 and now I'm having troubles connecting to the internet at work. I did reset my network settings and inputted the appropriate password and still having issues. It identifies the network but when open safari or an app requiring internet connection it goes nowhere. Is anyone else having this issue. Does anyone know how to fix this problem. Keep in mind my connection works fine at home.

Airport issues after upgrading I-Tunes

Hi!
My parents have a connection problem after upgrading I-tunes to 8.1.1.
Environment:
One Mac-Mini and one Airport Extreme on same desk 5 foot apart, wireless connection.
One Macbook, usually in another room, wireless connection.
For the past 2 years, not one problem, if both computers are on the same desk, within feet of the Airport Extreme.
Music shared from Macbook to Mac-Mini, no past problems.
2 weeks ago my mother upgrade her I-tunes and my fathers Mac-Mini struggled to share her library. It would "stutter" between tracks and also during songs. Shortly after this, I wanted to speak to my father over I-chat as he doesn't have a webcam, as my mother walked her computer into his room, the connection was lost, hearing some sort of interference just prior from my end.
Since then, we have found out that as soon as there is a clear, direct path between the Airport Extreme and her Macbook, the connection is lost. We have tested this with the Mac-Mini turned off, and have even turned the base station of the cordless phone just to be safe but the same result.
The Airport indicator states that there is a connection even though that there is no internet connection. We have updated both computers to the latest firmware and software updates, the system is OSX tiger.
This sounds crazy, but the only thing that has changed is that I-Tunes was upgraded. Can anybody help me understand this before I get my mother (who has anxiety attacks if she as soon as she needs to do something tech) to setup the Airport Extreme once more from Scratch?
Thanks for reading

Wireless dropout issues after 10.5.3 upgrade

As recommended [here|http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1540120&tstart=0] I am starting a new topic to focus on my problem.
My sad history begins with the 10.5.3 update (about a month ago), which brought on the problems. After trying all the tricks, and needing a solid solution I clean-installed 10.5.2, which worked a charm. Out of interest I then upgraded my clean install to 10.5.3, which broke the airport again so I clean installed 10.5.2 again : (. Fast forward to the recent 10.5.4 release, which I saw some positive feedback on regarding the airport problems, so I gave it a try. Sadly it broke my wireless again, so I clean installed 10.5.2 only to find the problem was still there. I now have no "safe" build, which is why I am here asking for help. I have since installed the 10.5.4 update again.
-- My symptoms are similar to many in these forums.
My wireless signal will stay full and steady with little to no activity (overnight, no programs), however after using more request intensive services (chat, bittorrent, skype, opening multiple http pages) my wireless signal, as shown in the menu "fan" indicator, will drop from 4/4 to 1/4. At this point I will either lose connection entirely and have to turn airport off/on, or my connection will struggle for a few minutes (hovers around 1/4 - 3/4 bars) before dying and requiring the off/on treatment, I have never seen the connection recover from it's dying phase.
-- My details are as follows:
As you will see from the following details, My iMac 24" has a static IP and am using the Open DNS servers. I am running a 54Mb wireless router with no security (my neighbours are all old Japanese people) connected to a fibre optic router (100/100 Mbit connection). My wireless router is an old D-Link model, but I cannot find the model name for the life of me, the unit is completely unbranded, I only know it's a D-Link from the iStumbler readout. Thus a firmware update is the only solution, which I have not been able to pursue. The router is positioned two floors above me, which is why the transmit rate is low. I have however, been using the router with no issues for over 3 years.

Due to the fact that I am only getting a transmit rate of 24Mbit at full signal, I would consider buying a newer router as a solution.
Thank-you for reading, I hope a solution can be found.

Unfortunately, the bars are a poor measure of signal quality. To my (limited) understanding, the effectively measure the 'loudness' of the signal - but not its quality.
Actually, it's my understanding the bars are based on a signal level and quality metric, which is why they change over time.
For example, one scenario that would result in this type of behavior is an environment with lots of interference or noise from other routers or devices on the 2.4 GHz band.
The Mac will initially see the signal well and connect to it but as time goes on the degree of interference and noise is such that it's impossible to maintain a reliable connection to the router. As the Mac tries different things to keep a connection - including dropping the speed at which it's talking to the router - the signal "bars" will drop to reflect those reception difficulties. Finally if it can no longer maintain a reliable connection of any type it will just be dropped.
The beacons lost errors being emitted means that the scenario I've outlined above may very well be playing out. WiFi relies on periodic beacon signals sent from the router to stay in sync with it.
Without the beacons, the connection cannot be maintained and the Mac must disassociate from the router.
If you're curious as to what 802.11 beacons are, there's a pretty nice writeup on them here; to briefly quote it:
The amount of overhead that the transmissions of beacon frames generate is substantial; however, the beacon serves a variety of functions. For example, each beacon transmission identifies the presence of an access point. By default, radio NICs passively scan all RF channels and listen for beacons coming from access points in order to find a suitable access point.
When a beacon is found, the radio NIC learns a great deal about that particular network. This enables a ranking of access points based on the received signal strength of the beacon, along with capability information regarding the network. The radio NIC can then associate with the most preferable access point.
After association, the station continues to scan for other beacons in case the signal from the currently-associated access point become too weak to maintain communications. As the radio NIC receives beacons from the associated access point, the radio NIC updates its local clock to maintain timing synchronization with the access point and other stations. In addition, the radio NIC will abide by any other changes, such as data rate, that the frame body of the beacon indicates.
The beacons also support stations implementing power saving mode. With infrastructure networks, the access point will buffer frames destined for sleeping stations and announce which radio NICs have frames waiting through the TIM that's part of the beacon. On the other hand, the beacon in ad hoc network marks the beginning of a period where stations buffering frames can alert sleeping stations that frames are waiting for delivery.
As you can see, beacons are very important. With them, a wireless LAN simply won't work.

Airport issues after 10.5.8 on Macbook 5.1

After upgrading to 10.5.8 I have experienced several problems with the wireless connection.
I can correctly list the wifi networks, but I always end up with a self asigned IP. It won't ping the router, giving "no route to host" or timeouts up to 14000ms.
Sometimes (1 out of 4?), when I've been working with ethernet and switch to airport, seems to work properly for about 4-5 minutes. Then, both when running on battery or plugged in, the performance drastically drops until it becomes unusable.
I have tried all the solutions proposed to the similar problem (wifi issues when running on battery) with no results. The upgrade apple released didn't run for my hardware. I don't know if it's the same bug, but I hope this helps to identify it.

After doing a Software Update, AirPort has been having serious connection issues. It cannot find wireless networks where the *Wireless SSID Broadcast is DISABLED*. My iPhone finds the networks perfectly, every time. I am forced to input the network manually every time through "Join Other Network...", even though the network is saved on the Advanced list in Network Preferences.

Everything is pretty much defaulted to the default settings for the router. I have also another Linksys Router that is having the same problems. These used to work before perfectly BEFORE the MacBook 10.5.8 updates...
*Previous Methods in Trying to Resolve Issue:*
-Deleting AirPort connection in Network Preferences and re-adding it
-Deleting the "com.apple.airport.preferences.plist" file in /Library/Preferences/etc.
I'm at a loss here... any help would be greatly appreciated.

Reporting issues after SP1 to R2 upgrade

Hi Guys.
I'm having an issue with reporting after upgrading System Center 2012 Configuration Manager SP1 to R2 CU2.
For some reason SSRS is not allowing users to logon from a remote workstation. The Reporting node in the Monitoring workspace does not list any reports. The SSRS reporting portal prompts for authentication but does not accept any credentials. Both
are accessible when logged on to the Primary Site Server where SQL and SSRS are installed.
After some investigation I’ve determined that this is a permissions issue and this is where I need your combined wisdom. At first I thought this might be as simple as adding the proper RBAC permissions but if it was permissions issue for my account then
why would it be accessible from the site server but not a remote client….
Some techy info for you.
With the R2 Upgrade a few new permissions were required for the SSRS service account in order for RBAC to work with Reporting. The service account has been added to the Domain Built in group “Windows Authorization Access” and has the “Read TokenGroupsGlobalAndUniversal”
AD attribute set to “Allow”. These are the permissions Microsoft has listed for the Service Account in the TechNet Library.
The SRSRP.log has a ton of errors that I believe may be the cause of the problem. The error is “Unable to translate SID [SID for Account] error: [Some or all identity references could not be translated.] SMS_STS_REPORTING_POINT 9/9/2014
4:51:00 PM 5300 (0x14B4)” which I believe to be a logon failure error. Each time a user try's to authenticate with the site this error is generated.
So I’m thinking this may be a permissions issue with the Service Account that runs SSRS or the SQL Engine may also require a Service Account.
At this point I’m thinking the SQL Engine may also require an AD service account, but before I create another Service Account I wanted to consult the IT Geniuses and see what kind of incite you may have.
Thanks for your help,
Gabe

Hi Guys,
One of our SQL DBA's was able to resolve the issue. It turned out to be a Kerberos Authentication problem with SSRS.
Cause :
The problem was due to Kerberos authentication. Kerberos is an authentication protocol that allows clients that create authentication tokens to associate a specific destination to that token. In this case there is a mismatch between the destination
specified in the token and the report server process configuration. Due to this mismatch, the underlying Kerberos authentication scheme supported by Windows prevents report server from authenticating the user.
Resolution:
1-Remove RSWindowsNegotiate and ensure RSWindowsNTLM is specified in the file rsreportserver.config and save the config file 2-Stop and start SQL server and reporting services.

Airport issue after update - Status grey / Connection OK - Solved

Hello All,
Just wanted to share an issue I had that was driving me nuts, and then the final solution.
Ever since the recent airport extreme update, my airport status has been broken. The menubar icon has shown up as grey / no signal, and when I click on it, the only option I have is to 'turn airport on' which when selected does nothing.
In spite of this, though, my airport connection for my preferred network is working fine - I just can't select a new network off the list (there is no list, even in internet connect)
This has been a problem since the airport extreme update. Nothing I did seemed to help. Finally, I called apple and spent 45 minutes on the phone with them, doing the obligatory pram resets and power management resets, etc. Nothing seemed to help. We found a way to enter networks manually (go to system prefs / network / airport and add your network there) but the status problem was still there.
After I got off the phone, I went to the apple support page and found the airport extreme software update and downloaded it manually and installed it.
Manually Downloading and Installing the airport extreme update again solved the problem.
I don't know why the software-update version didn't quite work, but installing the update from the website did solve the gray / broken airport status menubar problem.
Just thought I'd share that with everyone, as it's been driving me nuts for the better part of a week.
Cheers!

Macbook Pro Mac OS X (10.4.8) 2G ram

I would like to confirm that update worked for me too. Actually, I didn't need to do it manually like some of you did. It worked straight away after automatic software update.
My problem was occasional inability to connect to my wireless router. The problem would have been solved by SSID change manually on the router and reconnection.
After the latest update, everything is working flawlessly.
I have (not so known) OZENDA router and didn't have Parallels installed.

Networking issues after a move and upgrade

I just moved, and did a massive system upgrade, moving over fully to systemd.
Everything works fine, except my network seems to crap out after a random period of time (sometimes 2 hours, sometimes 10 minutes, sometimes it stays up for days).
ive used different ports on my router, different ethernet cables, so im pretty sure the issue is with my laptop
i used the ethernet-static script and put in my own network info (using 10.0.0.0/24 network), a correct default gateway, and working nameservers.
on my main computer i have MPD going over a SMB share, and sometimes it just stops working. When i open up Wireshark i see im getting ICMP Dest unreachable errors.
What could be causing this? Any ideas?

No. Something is wrong with modprobe I guess. I noticed yesterday that the line that usually looked lieke this
eth1 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:10:A7:27:5D:A2
was like this
eth1-00 Link encap:UNSPEC HWaddr 00-10-A7-27-5D-A2-00-00-00-00 or something like that
So I did a manual modprobe 8139too and I got
eth2 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:10:A7:27:5D:A2
I changed the settings in rc.conf from eth1 to eth2, restarted the networking script and the network was OK. But this doesn's anwer the question what was wrong with it in the first place...

Sleep issues after 10.4.7 upgrade

I upgraded to 10.4.7 immediately after it was issued and I had no issues. A couple of weeks later the FAX software Pagesender would not logout on a scheduled shutdown. I ran Diskwarrior to repair the directory and I thought ev3erything was OK but then all of a sudden my computer would not wake from sleep. By pushing numberous buttons it the screen would wake but the cursor was frozen. I checked my energy saver settings and noticed it was set to spin down the discs when possible. I unchecked this option and I thought that the problem was gone. I was away for a couple of days and I keep the computer on during the day as I receive some faxes and when I tried to acces the computer on my return I was back to square one. The only way I can get the computer to function normally is to do a hard restart. Any thoughts? This condition applys to my G4 desktop machine

Can you clarify if you've checked for any updates to your FAX software?
If you open Applications> Utilities> Console, go to the View menu, and slect show log list, does anything suggestive show up from around the time of one of the crashes? Look in system.log and console.log, in /Library/logs/Crash Reporter, and in /var/log/fax

PWA issues after Office 2010 SP2 upgrade

We recently upgraded some client machines that have Project 2010 Professional installed to Project SP2. Several of these users also use PWA.
After the upgrade, I heard from a few of these users that in PWA, the Workflow Approval buttons were unavailable, and that they were unable to export to Excel. I checked with another user who uses the same Project Server and did
not receive the update, and he had the same issue.
I did find kb2817580 that describes these exact issues, but the timing is suspicious with the client SP2 upgrade. Is there something in the Project 2010 SP2 update that would cause this problem on Project Server, or does Server need to be upgraded
concurrently with the client update? I was not under the impression that the local Project update would affect Project Server. Is that incorrect?

Cwoodin, in my experience, the client doesn't make any modifications at the server.
About the updates, i would recommend you to apply SP2 at the server as well. Besides that, take a look at the ULS logs to see if it spits any errors.
Regards

Minor issues after KDE 4.9 upgrade.

Hello All.
After upgrading to KDE 4.9, I noticed:
1. My computer took some extra time to shutdown (only when running on AC
power). I ran a diff on a snapshot of my processes taken before starting
X, and after shutting it down, and found that kactivitymanagerd is the
problem-- it does not respond to SIGTERM, only SIGKILL. I guess it is not
a huge issue, but it annoys me nevertheless. Executing `pkill --signal 9
kactivityman` solves the issue, but I don't know where to put it... my
.xinitrc runs `exec startkde`, so I never get the chance there. Any
suggestions? Also, is anyone else having this problem? Is this worth a
bug report?
2. Some of the kwin effects seem less smooth. In particular, the "show
desktop grid" effect (most others seem fine). Did anyone else notice
this? Maybe I'm crazy, but I swear it was smoother in 4.8. If anyone can
confirm, did you find an answer? I tried to set the thumbnails to
"smooth" instead of "accurate", but it didn't seem to help. By the way,
this is on an X220 with intel graphics hardware (and the i915 kernel
module).
Has anyone successfully downgraded KDE from their cache before? I want to go
back to 4.8, but I'm scared of creating a much larger disaster.
Thanks in advance.
***Update***
Running my power-saving script fixes the first issue with kactivitymanagerd
(which is why it only happened on AC). I get the feeling this will be
something obscure, so it is probably best to not waste your time
investigating. But if you do run into this, I'm happy to share my script,
fwiw

Thanks for the replies, all : )

I tried out dolphin and konqueror just now, and had no issues. I don't use
them very often, but I've never seen them crash before.
@masteryod: Indeed. But before filing bug reports, I like to check with the
friendly Arch community to get a little feedback and make sure that, as you
mentioned, it isn't my own fault for having some messed up configuration.
This is a valid use of the forum, right?
PS Lead developer of kwin is suggesting porting desktop grid to
qml...
I'm not sure what to think of the QML re-write: that sounds like a
re-organization / feature addition, but I don't know if it acknowledges the
4.8 --> 4.9 performance regression that we've observed. I think will file a
report as soon as I get the chance.
Also, I have one update: I think the first problem I mentioned
(kactivitymanagerd refusing to die) might be somewhat me-specific, so don't
look too hard for a solution. The reason it only happens when I am on AC is
that in this case my power-saving script is *not* run. If I run the powersave
script, kactivitymanagerd will exit at the right time o_O No clue why the
script would fix this. There's nothing exotic in the script, and I still
contend this is a bug, but I'm not sure it would be worth your time to
investigate.
Thanks again, everyone.

Join Issues After 4i to 10g Upgrade

Hi,
We have noticed issues with folder joins after upgrading from 4i to 10g. These joins existed and worked as expected in 4i. But after the upgrade to 10g, reports will pull all data instead of limiting to the parameters.
For example, we have a order headers folder and invoice headers folder in a business area created from the database. The 2 folders have a join. If I create a report that pulls columns from both folders and then create parameters to limit the invoice creation date, it will pull all records from the database instead of limiting to the parameters.
Has anyone else experienced this issue? Can someone point me to some documentation that relates to the issue?
Any help is greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
Troy

Hi Troy,
I seem to remember that there is a difference in how 4i and 10g handle outer joins. There is also an issue associated with applying joins to different types of folders. Please send me a copy of the SQL generated from the "view SQL" function for this worksheet and I'll try to help you debug the issue. It would also be helpful if you could do this for 4i also.

Issues after Tiger to SL Upgrade

About 5 months ago I upgraded from Tiger to SL... although Tiger never gave me any issues I wanted to be on the latest version. I have an older MAC so needed to upgrade via the (expensive) Box Set. I did the change via the "upgrade" and not the complete install (erase disk). Since then upgrade my MAC has given me issues... it freezes at times requiring a hard shutdown... other times the graphics do not refresh.. the desktop icons tun into horizontal lines... again requiring a hard shutdown. I ran the Apple hardware test and no errors were identified.
I can not find the common cause... there does not appear to be any common events before the problems. The only key change in the use of the MAC is my wife's use of FACEBOOK games... especially the farming ones... I've installed FireFox for her just for those games as she say's the games don;t work right in Safari (and of course not on the iPad)...
Do I need to do a complete install of SL? Any other suggestions ? Thanks in advance...

DaddyPaycheck, could you please explain why you ask what external peripherals he has attached. I'm not being snarky — I am just curious because I also had random freezing of programs after upgrading to Snow Leopard from Tiger. After a month of trying various fixes, including more than one clean install and taking my computer into a shop (they could not replicate my problem, and my computer passed their diagnostic tests with no issues), I gave up on Snow Leopard and reinstalled Tiger, which runs just fine on my computer.
Anyway, the fact that my computer seemed to run fine on Snow Leopard in the shop made me wonder if my peripherals were the culprit, since they weren't attached when the computer was in the shop. All I have hooked up to my computer is an HP Deskjet F4180 printer and a Lacie external hard drive. BUT, while they are plugged into the USB ports on my iMac, both are ALWAYS turned off unless I'm actually using them. Could simply having these external peripherals plugged into my computer — and not actually being "on" — cause the problem I was having?
I've been monitoring Apple Discussions for a couple of months now, and plenty of people are experiencing graphics-related problems and freezing using Snow Leopard, so it seems the problem goes deeper than just the peripherals. In my own case, I'm guessing my mid-2007 iMac just isn't up to running Snow Leopard despite Apple's insistence it is. I don't know what I would do if it turned out the problem actually is caused by my peripherals. After having already spent a couple of hundred dollars on Snow Leopard and iLife 11 and the computer repair shop, I don't feel like buying a new printer and/or external hard drive just so I can use Snow Leopard. Still, as I said, I'm curious to know what you know about whether peripherals could be causing our problems.
Thanks.
