AirPort signal not always showing

Hello there, I have the last 12" ibook to come out. I have had it since late February 2006 and this is the first time that this has been happening. The last couple of days, the AirPort signal has not been showing sometimes when I start up my ibook. I have to restart it, sometimes twice, to get the signal to pop up. When it wasn't showing up, and I would open up the Internet Connect and the AirPort wouldn't even be an option to select to connect to the Internet. Please give me any advice you can. Thanks.

Hallo.
i got the same problem help !!!!!!....

Networked Macs Not Always Showing Up In Network In Finder - On One Mac

The problem is that awake and running networked macs do not always show up in Network on the Finder. Sometimes they do and sometimes they do not. The problem happens fequently on one machine. Very similar questions have been posted on this. I suspect many are dancing around the same issue. I am hoping to get to the bottom of this.
All the OS X machines are running 10.4.9. Two are networked by Airport. The Airport and the problem iMac, an older G3, are wired to a LAN. On the LAN sits a PPC 7200 running OS9 IpNetRouter serving up IP addresses for all the connected devices, including printers. IpNetRouter also provides an internet connection out through a second ethernet card. The PPC 7200 drive is always reliably available for connecting to in the Finder.
Each of the OS X machines are set for Personal File Sharing only, with Firewall running, and without Stealth Mode enabled.
The problem is noticed on the wired Mac. Perhaps that is the key to this. The problem is not two way. The Finder on the wireless Macs shows the wired Mac in Network when the wired Mac is not showing the wireless Mac. Sometimes only one of the wireless Macs shows on the wired Mac. When that happens it is always the wireless eMac instead of the wireless Intel Mac.
When this problem occurs, it is always possible to connect to the "missing" wireless Macs by using their local IP address reported by IpNetRouter. It is not possible to do the same using the computer name of the Mac that should be visible in Network or by using its DHCP client ID.

No Macs are sleeping, but they might have been in the past. They don't show up when they are sleeping. These machines are often on for days. All are updated on a regular basis, including in the past two days.

USB Drives not always showing Finder

I currently have two USB Drives connected through a powered hub and they do not always show in the Finder window. Also when I pug in a USB memory stick it does the same thing.
I am new to Mac, I love it but this really bugs me. is there a setting somewhere, what is happening? If I disconnect then re-plug in the memory stick it shows up. What is really funny, that doing this also causes the missing USB drives to show up......

I tried that, but still no go with a thumbdrive. I can go to "Computer", and the USB drive shows up under that. All my other USB external HDs, my iDisk, and even FireWire drives show up on the left pane of the finder, just not the USB stick.
Any ideas?

Files do not always show in finder when accessing server

When I access our server(PC) files do not always show up in the finder. Sometimes it shows and sometimes it does not. I have to go back and start over. I recently updated to Snow when this problem started happening. Example. If i'm in illustrator and want to open a file on the server I will go to server than to the folder on the server. once the folder is open there is not any files showing. If I go back and start over they will be there. Sometimes I have to do this several time to show files. There are multiple type of files in the folders and none of them show. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

When you are viewing the tracks on the hard disc, did you then click on "Import CD"? This is needed to initiate the importing process that will add the tracks to your library.

Notes always show in the inbox

In the mail program notes always show in the inbox as well as the reminders tab which is an annoyance as I do not want them to always show in the inbox.
Is there a way to only have them display in the reminders section.
Thanks in advance for any help, Kenneth.

Sorry but the answer came as related posts after I posted the question.
Regards, Kenneth.

Album art does not always show.

I posted this question before, but never found an answer.
Album art works most of the time, but not always.
After ripping a CD, I highlight all songs, get the info dialog, and drop the album art on the info dialog. This works most of the time. But not always. Sometimes, there is a song on a CD that does not appear to have any album art at all. Sometimes it shows the incorrect album art that iTunes had automatically downloaded.
For example, I'm just listening to my "Ultra Dance 02" album on my iPod. I remember that after ripping, iTunes incorrectly added album art for "Ultra.iDance 05". I fixed that by select-all, get-info, and drag-and-dropping the correct art. After syncing with my iPod, all songs show the correct "Ultra Dance 02" artwork, except for track 6, which still shows "Ultra.iDance 05"
What's going on? How do I ensure that the changes that I make stick? And how do I fix such an error?
Also, is there a way to associate album art with a whole album, rather than each song individually?
-Ron.

Even if iTunes recognized it, you cannot use iTunes to transfer from iPod to computer (except for songs purchased from the iTunes Store). You need to use a third-party program. Here is an article on that topic.
http://lifehacker.com/394046/copy-music-from-your-iphone-or-ipod-to-your-compute r-for-free
However, if your hard drive's data is in bad shape, it may be difficult to recover all of your songs files.
Note: The hard drive may have data corruption, but the iPod may work better after you use the Restore button in iTunes. The Restore process erases the iPod and initializes the iPod's software. It won't fix a hardware problem if the drive is becoming faulty. But it may fix the problem if it is only data corruption.

I cant go on youtube with the wifi from airport express, its alway show that the webpage not found so I try to connect the lan to my mac ,its work. Anyone know why amd how to fix it. (only youtube and google doesnt work)

Is this an airport express problem?? Only Youtube and google doesnt work. Its not work only on wifi from airport express. I really have no idea about technical problem.

After the last upgrade, my itunes doesn't open (this happen only the first time after the start of my pc). It seems frozen.To re-open Itunes i need to terminate APS deamon every time from task manager.
What is Apple doing to solve this problema? Thank you.

Is it normal for airport express not to show up in utility when extending a network?

Hi, with the help of this community, I think I successfully extended my wifi network by using airport expresses, connected to my time capsule, via my houses electrical system (via powerline adaptors), which ultimately connect via an RJ45 cable to the airport express. I tried to do it all with the same netwrok, so I do not need to switch to different networks when I move about the house.
I think it works because my signal strenght is much stronger than before I added the powerline adaptors. So, why am I back here?, two things. First is I want to make sure I did this all correctly, as I am adding a few more of these powerline adapters as they have really changed my wireless experiences.
What should the internet setting be on the time capsule and airport expresses. I have it set the "connection" to off (bridge mode) on the TC and the express units. But the express units blink yellow and says there is a NAT/DHCP error. something about the time capsule rejecting the sharing? so I chnage the TC to share a public address and the express to off (bridge mode), and I think this works.
But when I do this, none of the express units show up in the utility anymore. Should I just take it as a blessing that it seems to be working, and not mess with it?
What should all the setting be? I am sure that I should be able to see all the units in the utility.
Thanks if this makes any sense to you.

But when I do this, none of the express units show up in the utility anymore. Should I just take it as a blessing that it seems to be working, and not mess with it?
Did you power cycle the entire network to get things in proper sequence?
If not, power off everything....all devices....order is not important
Wait a few minutes
Power up the modem first and let it run a moment or two
Power up the Time Capsule the same way
Power up the powerline devices
Power up each Express one at a time
Power up other devices one at at time
What should the internet setting be on the time capsule and airport expresses.
The setting on the Time Capsule will depend on the type of modem that you have connected. It sounds like the "Share a public IP address" would be correct for the Time Capsule. Everything else must be in "Bridge Mode"
Each of the AirPort Express devices must be configured to "Create a wireless network" using the same wireless network name, security setting and password as the Time Capsule network. Set the Channels as "Automatic" and double check as the last configuration step to make sure that they are set for Bridge Mode.
Then restart the entire network as outlined above and you are in business.
The Express devices should definitely show up in AirPort Utility when you have everything set up.

Bug: JList does not always show the right selection

I have a JList (Navigator model!) on my form which contains the data of a certain view. The view consists of several attributes but the navigator model always only shows the value of one field. The field I have choosen hasn't an unique value but that's no problem for what I want to do with the JList.
When I select another row in the view object useing it's key the row is selected in the view object (which I can check looking at the primary key attribute of the currently selected row), but in the JList sometimes the wrong row is selected. I noticed that if there is another row with the same value for the visible attribute (in my case an attribute called "name") as the row which is selected in the view object sometimes this wrong row is selected in the JList. This occurs if the wrong row with the same visible value (name) is at a higher position in the list. So it looks like the BC4J framework checks what the value is of the visible attribute of the currently selected row in the view object and used this value to select the first row in the JList that has this value. This doesn't necessarily mean it's the right row!!!
E.g.
The initial view object:
PK | Name
1 | test
2 | another test <-- currently selected row
3 | test
The initial JList:
| test |
| another test | <-- currently selected row
| test |
Now I tell the view object that I want to select the row with primary key value "3".
Now my view object looks like this:
PK | Name
1 | test
2 | another test
3 | test <-- currently selected row
But my JList now looks like this:
| test | <-- currently selected row
| another test |
| test |
I hope this is sufficient information to trace the bug, if not feel free to contact me (by sending a response to this message). I'm useing JDeveloper 9.0.3 preview!
Regards,
Peter

Well, how should the list resolve the difference between two "displayed values" that are same?Well, if I select a certain value in the list the connected record in the ViewObject is selected. In other words the JList seems to know enough about the ViewObject to select the correct record (it doesn't select the first record in the ViewObject with the display value!). So if "it" knows how to do it one way, why not the other way?When you select by index then the object corresponding to that index is selected and that means the right row (if you are able to figure out which row by simply having the knowledge of the row index though even though the displayed values are duplicate - but I won't say that's realistic). The other way, it only has a value - string that it has to match with a set of values in the list and that logic has no clues which of the "duplicate" entries would be the right one.
To resolve such conflicts you could add another "displayed attribute" in the list which is going to make the attribute-set unique in the list.I did do that already, but then my list becomes read-only (not selectable) because the attribute I added is a primary key attribute which is a DBSequence field what may not be changed once it has been inserted. The weird thing is, you can't change the value when you select it from the list, so why does it behave like this? (In other words why is a list with a read only display attribute also read only? because selecting something in a navigator list doesn't mean something get's changed in the selected attribute value!). I'd chase this one. This definitely sounds like a bug. Readonly-ness should not be derived from "displayed" attributes but "updateable" attributes.

Airplay not always showing on ipad or iphone

Ok, so i have an AppleTV and a Yamaha receiver and they both have Airplay activated. AppleTV is connected via WiFi and receiver is via LAN.
I have gotten these units to play from my iphone 4 and my ipad 4, but usually the airplay icon just does not show at all.
If i use airfoil from my windows computer the option to stream to ATV or receiver is always present and working as they should, wich leads the suspicion to my iPad and my iPhone. They both run iOS6 btw.
Anyone know if this is a common issue? Is it bound to be a conflict when running multiple airplay units and multiple i-devices on the same network?
(My receiver is a Yamaha RX-V473, also with the latest firmware installed)

Hello there, vikram80.
Sounds like your app is stuck downloading on both of your iOS devices. You can try tapping on the application icon to resume the download, as outline in this featured discussion:
App updates won't download on my...: Apple Support Communities
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4111336
Try tapping the App, so that it changes to Paused instead of Waiting, then tap it again to resume the install.
Make sure you don't have any paused downloads in other apps either, like the App Store or iTunes Store.
If that doesn't do it, try resetting or restoring the iPhone.

Thanks for reaching out ot Apple Support Communites.
Cheers,
Pedro.

Airport Utility not always recognizing Airport Extreme

I recently bought a new Airport Extreme so I could connect wirelessly to my iTunes library (which is too big to fit on my hard drive) and stream music to my receiver. I hooked up a USB external drive with my library on it to the Airport Extreme and I'm using my old (pre-2005) Airport Express in client mode to stream music to my receiver..
The problem is my MacBook can't consistenly connect to the network. I'll get a "connection failed" message when I click on AirPort Extreme under "Shared" in my finder window and when I run Airport Utility, it will say "AirPort Utility was unable to find any AirPort wireless devices." Restarting solves the problems sometimes, but not all the time. It seems kind of random but it's very common.
Does anybody have any hints that might help my MacBook consistenly connect to the network? It's really annoying, especially when I start up iTunes to listen to music and it gives me that "the song cannot be found" error message.
I realize the problem might be my old Airport Express, but I'd rather not spend the $99 for a new Airport Express if I'm not absolutely sure that's the problem.
Thanks!

Airport utility has long had a "bug" where it randomly doesn't see a base station or remote. Sometimes refreshing brings it back, sometimes just letting Airport Utility (AU) sit for a while brings it back.
The only way I know for a fact to bring it back is to unplug the station, wait ten seconds, plug it back in, wait until you get a green light, then launch AU.
Also, make sure you have the latest version of AU, and the latest firmware update for the base station (both of which appeared yesterday).
Good luck,
Matt

Some web sites require you to type words presented in a strange form (Captcha?). The 'Captcha' does not always show up on my screen. How can I fix this?

I do not know how to make this any more clear. The strange, 'squiggly' words are meant to protect a web site from computerized log ins (I think). If the words are interpreted and entered correctly, you can log in successfully. But since the strangely formed words do not show up on my screen, I cannot continue the process. This does not occur all the time, on some sites the strangely formed words show up, and I can continue the process. Is this a problem with Firefox, my computer, or the web site I am trying to log into?

If images are missing then check that you aren't blocking images from some domains.
*Check the permissions for the domain in the current tab in "Tools > Page Info > Permissions"
*Check that images are enabled: Tools > Options > Content: [X] Load images automatically
*Check the exceptions in "Tools > Options > Content: Load Images > Exceptions"
*Check the "Tools > Page Info > Media" tab for blocked images (scroll through all the images with the cursor Down key).
If an image in the list is grayed and there is a check-mark in the box "<i>Block Images from...</i>" then remove that mark to unblock the images from that domain.

My templates are not always showing up in template chooser

When I click on numbers all of my templets do not show up in "My Templates"
When I click on the templet it tells me it is in the Template Chooser do I want to replace it.
Are there two different places Numbers is saving items?

It also takes time for the photos to be transferred out of your iPhone and into Photo stream on Apple's iCloud servers.
Note that this can't happen if your iPhone is not connected to a WiFi network:
When you enable My Photo Stream on your devices, all new photos you take or import to those devices will be automatically added to your photo stream.
iOS devices: New photos you take are automatically uploaded to your photo stream when you leave the Camera app and are connected to Wi-Fi. My Photo Stream does not push photos over cellular connections.
Macs: Any new photos you import to iPhoto or Aperture begin uploading automatically when you have a Wi-Fi or Ethernet connection. Or you can change your iPhoto or Aperture preferences so that only photos you manually add to My Photo Stream are uploaded.
PC with iCloud Control Panel 2.0 or later: Open a Windows Explorer window and under Favorites select iCloud Photos if you are using iCloud Control Panel 3.0 (or Photo Stream if you are using 2.0 to 2.1.2). Open My Photo Stream. Click the "Add photos" button. Select the photos to import to My Photo Stream, then click Open.
