Airport signal disappears when I use our cordless phone

Hi. I am running an adelphia premiere high-speed DSL modem into an airport extreme base station, which provides a wireless signal to an i-book and powerbook. I am also running a line from the extreme base station to a Vonage unit, for internet telephone, from which I use a cordless panasonic phone (KX-TG2216). It's a new set-up as we have just moved house. And I'm finding that whenever I use the cordless phone my airport signal disappears (icon goes to grey), and sometimes I even lose my base station network in the popup menu (necessitating finding it again on airport setup assistant). They're just not there... But they come back when I terminate any use of the cordless handset. Is it a hardware compatibility issue? Do I need some kind of firmware patch?
Any help gratefully received. Thanks!

simonherb, Welcome to the discussion area!
Your cordless phone uses the same 2.4 GHz that is used by the AirPort Extreme base station (AEBS). Therefore it is directly interfering with your wireless network.
You may be able to configure the AEBS to use a channel that works OK even when the telephone is in use.
A better solution is to get a cordless phone that does not operate at 2.4 GHz.

Small black squares appear/disappear when I used the down key

Small black squares appear/disappear when I used the down key-particulary when on FB, but also at other times

No, there is no yellow star on any of the entries. Each entry has the site's (or company's) logo, as well as the name of the site and URL. There is nothing more in each entry.

My phone is lost. When I use "find my phone", it says that my phone is "offline". It has a charged battery and I hadn't turned it off.

My phone is lost. When I use "find my phone", it says that my phone is "offline". It has a charged battery and I hadn't turned it off. When I call my number it immediately goes to the voice mail. Does that mean someone has found it and turned it off? What should I be doing. I have used icloud to lock and send a message to my phone but if it is offline does that do anything? HELP!!

Welcome to the Apple Community.
It may be that someone has turned it off or it may be that it has been lost in an area where there is no reception. The best thing that you can do, is contact your provider and let them know that you have lost your phone, and change your iCloud password at My Apple ID

Default Transport controls disappears when i use separate windows

The title is pretty clear. When i use separate windows for mixer and video, the transport controls disappears. (By the way, STP1 had a much better interface. Why one big closed window in STP 2?) How to have the transport controls back?

This sounds like a JDeveloper/ADF issue that is not related to JHeadstart. To simplify the test case, you could create a simple drag-and-drop ADF application without JHeadstart and see if the same problem occurs there. Try to access the session variable in a custom data action similar to the way JhsDataAction does it when applying the query bind params.
If it reproduces, can you please log a TAR at MetaLink ( http://metalink.oracle.com/ ), or ask this question at the JDeveloper forum at http://otn.oracle.com/discussionforums/jdev.html ? Thanks.
Hope this helps,

When I use my home phone, my internet turns off.

whenever anyone uses any hom ephones in my home, the internet shuts off. why is that? any help is greatly appreciated.

If you have a wireless computer connection and cordless phones (not cellular), the phones' frequency can interfere with that of the wireless router. If either the wireless router or the phones' base station allow you to adjust frequencies, changing one of them to a different frequency often fixes the problem.
The ability to adjust the frequency depends entirely on the brand and model of the router and, similarly, the phones. If you have a Apple Airport Extreme Base Station, ask in the forums for that product:
AirPort
If the router is not an Apple brand, you'll need to look at the support pages on the router manufacturer's web site.

Airport extreme signal drops when/after using Skype

I used Skype-to-Skype twice yesterday and both times the wifi signal from the Airport (802.11 n /square base station) started to attentuate and then completely disappeared. In both cases, I had to turn off and re-power the Airport base station to get my wifi working again and to maintain full strength. Regular internet usage has not caused this problem. We do not use Skype often and, of course, I could be mistaking coincidence for causality but this problem has not happened before. I get my high-speed internet from my cable company; perhaps they are doing something to discourage Skype/VOIP???

I am having the same problems, I was using a standard TP-link router and upgraded to AEBS, now it takes up to 7 tries to get a stable (?) connection with the AEBS. If anyone has any ideas it would be great.

When i use our iPad with a partner, i want to secure each account with a password, but how do i have to do that?

I am searching a way to use on our iPad 2 5.0.1(9A405) 2 e-mail accounts both protected by different passwords and excluding the possibillity of reading under "all incomming/send mail" each others writings send or received. Is there an possibillity?

Sorry, but there is no way to password-protect the Mail app on an iPad. You can remove the account password from the Settings each time which would prevent someone from getting to new email, but that would not prevent a use from seeing existing email unless the email account is IMAP or Exchange where all mail, sent and received, is stored on the email server. The most practical method of keeping email private is to use a web-based interface to your mail, when your provider offers that, rather than using the Mail app on the iPad.
Regards.

Audio disappears when I use preloader

I have a movie that has an audio track (I have it set to "start" for the Sync). It works perfectly, but when I insert a preloader with it, the audio disappears. The rest of the movie still works fine (visual) but it is silent. Couldn't find exactly this problem in a thread. Any ideas?

if you're using actionscript to instantiate your sound, use:
var yoursound:Sound = new Sound(this);
if you're using the timeline to instantiate your sound, make sure it's not set to export for use with actionscript.

Why does wi-fi signal disappear when I create a dual band network?

I have an Airport Express (4th Generation), and I am trying to setup a dual-band network. My wife has a new 15" MacBook Pro and I am running a iMac (Version 7,1), which I purchased in March 2008. From what I have researched, I should be able to run a dual-band network; however, as soon as I set up the 5GHz network, my iMac loses wi-fi and I cannot join my network even though it appears in the wi-fi status in the menu bar (the MacBook Pro is just fine). Am I doing something wrong or is my iMac simply not compatible?

Are you trying to join your iMac to the 5GHz band or the 2.4GHz band? The problem may be that the 5GHz band does not transmit well through thick walls and it might not be reaching your iMac with a good enough signal strength. As far as I am aware the 2008 iMac does support 5GHz connectivity however someone else might know better.
Try joining the 2.4GHz network and see if that helps.

Using my Actiontec modem's wifi, it doesn't find my new airport express. When I use the new airport express network I created error message says ip address is wrong. Help setting this new airport express up

Using my Actiontec modem's wifi, it doesn't find my new airport express. Using the new airport express network I just set up it says the ip address is invalid. What can I do to overcome this blinking amber light and error messages?

You need to begin by configuring the AEX to Join an existing network (Bridge Mode.) You can then connect to it using Wi-Fi, but the AEX will not extend your existing network.
If you can connect the AEX to your existing router using Ethernet, then you could use it to Create a new network. Otherwise, if you want to extend your existing network you will need to get a Wireless Access Point - WAP - from a non-Apple product like D-Link.

Photo Albums & Photos Disappear when publishing using ftp

Hi,
I am having trouble with both my iweb sites photos. There is two main problems:
1. An album that appears normally in iweb is not visable on the published site
2. An album will have random photos that are missing and replaced with a blank on the published site
Some things I have tried:
- I publish via ftp, so I tried publishing to a local folder - The albums and photos work normally
- I tried republishing with a 3rd party cyperduck - same problem
- I thought maybe it was therefore a ftp problem. So I logged in to my hostings file manager and check if the files are actually on the server - but they are..
- I tried republishing the entire site - same problem
An example can be seen on the following - the third album is completely missing and if you go into the other albums, there will be random gaps where other photos are missing.

Similar problem on this site, on the USA album, there is two photos missing towards the bottom:

Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you

Hi Cyclosaurus,
Thank you for your reply. Sorry to bug you again but can I ask some further questions? Pls excuse my lack of knowledge on these things.
In relation to your points:
1) In the ftp publishing settings, public_html is acutal in where it says "site name", where it says "URL" I have http://www.gippmed.com. I was advised to put public_html in "site name" from my hosting. If I put anything else it publishes the entire site to a folder with that name on the server and is not viewable online?
2) I have removed the spaces in the album page name and will reupload soon. In relation to the image file names, am I correct in saying that iweb is naming them from the captions? Do you really have to use one word captions or use underscores, it looks a little odd? I have read troubleshooting articles about iweb and spaces and it also recommends similar as you are, suggesting that all page names should have underscore instead of spaces. Problem is, if for example I change the page name "About Me" to "About_Me" iweb automatically changes it in the navigation menu and this looks silly to have undescores in the Nav Menu. Is there a way around this?
Lastly, a new problem that I have never had before:
Previously, iweb would remember what I had published and only publish new site changes. Now, every time I turn my computer off and on, I open iweb and it doesn't recognise any of the previous publishing, ie it republishes the entire site.
Thank you again for your help

My iphone 4s crashes too much the screen became black slowly and restart the phone this happens when i use anything safari phone messages i think i am having big problem i hope someone help me

I cant use the iphone its useless now :S i think its a software problem but i restored it many times

I suffer same. AppleCare can't seem to solve the problem. I did a restore from backup. Then I did a restore as new phone (virgin). Then I did a restore as a new device and then backed up from a stored backup (which does not replace media). To no avail. Some days it works fine, and on others it's extremely bothersome. The major symptoms:
1. It can take 5+ seconds to delete a photo.
2. It can take 10+ seconds for the camera app to activate. In many instances, the moment is long gone.
3. Switching from camera to video can take 5+ seconds.
4. Saving a photo that's been optimized in iOS 5 can take 30 seconds. Absurd.
Note that Photos and Camera aren't the only affected applications. What'sApp can have the same issues on occasion. Voice Memos don't respond like they should, either. I suspect that there's some behind-the-scenes operations with network feed to which iOS gives its full attention (contrary to the UX getting full attention is is historically the case). This makes the user interface painfully slow at times — and, as most of us here would agree — painfully annoying. This might have to do with changes designed around iCloud, but I'm not even (yet) using it.
The bottom line is that what used to be a quick, pretty good phone camera is now totally lackluster and unreliable for fast shots. Sometimes I think Apple spends too much time worrying about form and not enough about function.

When I make an outgoing call the recipient cannot hear as though the volume were turned down Lowe. However when I use my speaker phone function the recipient can hear at normal volume. Is there a fix for this issue? Thanks Teresa

When I make an outgoing call the recipient cannot hear me very well as though the volume was turned down very low
However when I activate the speakerphone the recipient can hear me loud and clear
Is there a fix for this?
Thanks

Hey Tlabounty,
Thanks for the question. I understand you are experiencing issues with the microphone on your iPhone 5. To troubleshoot this issue, you may find the information in this article helpful:
iPhone: Microphone issues
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts5183
Note that speakerphone and regular calls utilize seperate microphones on the device. It sounds like you have isolated the issue. Furthermore, if you determine that the issue is hardware related, the following resource may help you get started with the service process:

Using Adapter with Cordless Phone

Hi everyone! My family and I are going to live in South America next week and need help deciding whether to buy the Skype Adapter or the Dual phones. If we use the adapter and get an online number, if someone calls our online number, can we answer the call on our cordless phones?
Also, does anyone know if the adapter has to be connected to the computer to make calls?
Thank you!!!

Howdy, I think it's unlikely you'll be able to do what you want. There haven't been any new phone drivers for Palm OS devices issued since the 2005 Phone Link Update, and the Palm OS is essentially dead so there won't be any new drivers written.

My brush cursor disappear when i zoom in

Hi,
My Photoshop has been upgraded to CS5.5 now.
When I used my circle brush tool before, I can see the size of my brush in a circle so
I know where to paint. Now this circle is disappearing when I use my brush tool when zooming in the picture.
I did change the Cursors in Perferences, I set it to Normal Brush Tip and Full Size Brush Tip.
Same thing again. I could only see the whole circle brush when looking at my image at 100%.
When I zoom in more than 100%, circle brush is gone and is replaced with a quarter circle.
See the image before.
Do anyone know what I'm missing and what setup I need to make in order to bring back
the normal brush cursor?
Thanks.

Most likely, like other people posting this exact same problem in this forum, you have an older NVidia video card driver that you haven't updated in the past year or two.
Go update the driver from NVidia's web site.
