Airport Turns Off After Sleep

After I sleep my Mac, sometimes Airport is turned off and I can't get on the Web. If I go to network preferences and view the airport connection, I can't turn airport on again. If I lock the connection to prevent further changes, once Airport turns itself off the lock is unlocked. Rebooting will turn Airport on and reestablish the connection. How can I prevent/circumvent this problem without having to reboot?
Someone suggested that another network might be interfering and I should change the channel, but I don't know how to do this... Explanation or other ideas?

I wish I could help, but I have the same problem. When my G5 Tower goes to sleep, I lose Airport connection. When it wakes, Airport is on but will not reconnect. Attempts to connect result in errors (trying again doesn't help). It's not the Airport Extreme, since that works fine with other computers. It's not this specific network (I have two parallel accounts on the Airport Extreme - one public, one private) and it won't connect at all. The only thing that works is a complete reboot. I've tried deleting preferences, resetting the network connection (ie wiping it out, re-establishing the network with password etc) and nothing happens. Is the card dying?

AirPort turns off in sleep mode

I have a MacBook Pro and when at home I use the built in AirPort to connect to the internet via my wireless router. Over the last two days an odd new behavior has developed. When I put the computer to sleep, then wake it up later, AirPort has been mysteriously turned off. I go into System Preferences and turn it back on, and everything is fine, but I wonder why this is happening in the first place. How can I make this stop?

I am not sure if your AirPort problem could be related to your computers SMC. But, you might want to read here (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1411), do some research if you think it is needed, and consider doing an SMC reset.

Airport turns off after restart. Any way to change this preference?

I recently upgraded to 10.4.4 from 10.3.9. Whenever I restart my computer the airport by default is switched off and i have to manually select the network i want to join. Its a small detail, but previously in 10.3.9 the airport would stay on if it was switched on prior to the restart. Is there any way to change this preference or is this just the way airport is set up in 10.4.4?

No warranty left -_-

I've checked with Apple. They only give 28Days warranty now :'(
Whoever told you that is wrong. The warranty on a repair or replacement iPhone is still 90 days minimum. Quoting from their Service FAQ:
If defects arise as a result of service, Apple will cover the repair for the remaining term of the iPhone's warranty or 90 days after iPhone service, whichever provides longer coverage for you.
Call Apple Support and discuss your problem with them. If they agree that it's a hardware problem, they can arrange for mail-in service.

3G still won't turn off after hitting home and sleep button at same time. Any other ways to try?

And when you held them neither the red Off slider nor the Apple logo appeared?
If not then your sleep button is broken, you will need to get it serviced.

Yoga 13 display does not Turn off after idle

I have the computer set to the balanced power option, and the disaplay is set to turn off after 5 minutes on battery and 10 minutes when plugged in. Unfortunately the screen never turns off.
Anyone know how to fix this problem ?

hi tmpst,
Welcome to the Lenovo Forums.
If a wireless device (mouse, keyboard, etc.) is plugged to the computer, the display, screen saver or sleep function might not work. If this is your case, try to:
1. Remove your wireless device (might include a usb dongle)
2. Apply the Moving mouse causes laptop to exit sleep mode fix
If you have Power DVD installed, apply http://support.microsoft.com/kb/913405
Let me know your findings.
Cheers.

Airport turns off by itself and won't turn on back again!!!

hey there, i am currently facing an issue with the airport as by it is turnning off by itself and i cant turn it back on .. i have to restart !!!
sometimes when i turn on my mac like just now happened it is off and can;t be turned on.
please if anyone can help i would really appreciate it
thank you very much

Hey, in case you haven't been able to find a solution to your original problem with airport turning off, i seem to have found the solution for my MacBook Pro. I called Apple Care and they had me to shut down my computer. Then, while holding down the four keys: command, option, R and P, push the power button to turn on the computer. Do not let up on the four keys until the start up chime has sounded twice. Then let up on the four keys and the OS will boot up as usual. They said what that does is reset your "sleep" parameters on your computer. This seemed to have solved my problem.

Airport turns off, won't come back w/o restart

My Airport card has been driving me crazy since approximately late May. It turns off at will, and I've searched the net and tried a host of fixes -- resetting RAM and whatnot (holding down various button at restart), deleting and adding a new location in network prefs, etc etc -- but nothing has worked. I'm afraid (and becoming increasingly convinced) that it is a hardware issue. Things are fine when I leave my MBP on the desk. But as soon as I try to move it, or put it in my lap, the Airport turns off (icon at upper right goes "empty"). And it won't turn back on unless I restart. This happens every time I move it, though if I'm reeeally careful and hold it at the front/sides, it might make it to its new location...for a bit. Then, if I move it around too much...gone.
I'm out of warranty and don't have Applecare, so if this is purely hardware related, I might be SOL...or have to do some surgery myself. But if anyone has any advice, it would be much appreciated. Like I said, I've tried resetting everything at startup, erasing and adding a new location in network prefs...nothing worked at all.
(Also worth nothing, back in Nov 08, I had a problem with the board, which incidentally was also interfering with the Airport a bit....but it was mostly just causing system failure. Sent it in via an Apple Store, and when it came back, the board issue/kernel panics/etc were gone, but I had a HD hum....as in, faint clicking noise coming from the right upper area. Stops when I hold down the P, [, or ] keys, or those in the vicinity. Unfortunately, my warranty ran out shortly after, and I couldn't afford to lose my comp for a couple of weeks in there. *****. Now here I am.)

try a security wipe, doubt it will work but worth a try
backup device
options- security options- general settings
menu button- wipe handheld
wait till you BB reboots adn test it again without restoring your backup
if that doesnt work, try this
make sure you have DTM 4.7 or 5.0 installed and closed
plug in BB
click on start- run and type
cmd
press enter, then type
cd c:\program files\common files\research in motion\apploader
press enter, then type
loader.exe /resettofactory
press enter
wait till you BB reboots adn test it again without restoring your backup.

IPhone turns off after calls

Why does the iPhone turn off after phone calls. I've had two phones now, both have had this problem. It doesn't happen on all calls. On one phone it happened more than the other. But the Iphone turns off after some phone calls and it takes anywhere from about 15-40 seconds before the turn on button will actually turn on the phone. Is this a hardware problem, or a software problem?

It's neither, it's normal. If the phone was asleep when the call came in, it will go back to sleep when the call ends since this was the last thing it was doing when you accepted the call.

IPhone 4 OS 7.1.2 doesn't turn off after notification

After I receive a text, email notification or missed phone call, the notification screen usually turns off after a few seconds. It's gotten to where about 40% of the time it just stays on until I manually hit the On/Off button. At first I thought it was because the phone was plugged up but it's also happening when it is unplugged.
Anyone else having this issue or know of a fix?

Try a reset first.
Close all open apps by double-tapping the home button, then swiping up and off the screen with the app window (not the smaller icon).
Reset your device: hold down the home button along with the sleep/wake button until the screen goes black and you see the Apple, then let go. (No data loss)

WiFi turns off after an inconistant amount of time until restart.

On my MacBook Pro. My wifi turns off at certain times. So to battle it when I feel its about to go I'll turn airport off and on again. I don't get it. It really happened after installing 10.5.7. Although I remember once long before that the airport turned off and went back after restart. Could have been with 10.5.3. I ran Apple Hardware test (not the through one just the normal one) and it said that my hardware was fine? Is everyone experiencing this on All 4,1 MacBook Pro 17" Models?

Here is something but I am not sure whether it is the right thing.

Sticky Keys keeps turning off after every restart

the Sticky Keys option in the universal access prefs pane keeps turning off after every restart. how can i fix this?

It seems to be a common problem in the OS that when you restarts some of the settings get reset. For me it happens with the screeen dimming before sleep and the double click using 2 fingers and maybe others that I don't know about. I am hoping that its fixed in 10.4.7 which should be out within a week or so.

Monitor turns off to sleep but computer stays on???

Monitor turns off to sleep but computer stays on???
Any clues why? I can only shut-down and it gets annoying because I like to be working in less than a minute after powering up. Any things to look for to help?

Thanks,
don't know why it'd matter if I had a warranty or not since the function
in question is apart of what I'm supposed to be getting w/ cost of computer.
Time to load the overpriced 1 ton computer into the car and demand they fix it at the apple store. This is absurd since I originally bought this computer for music creating and it's the most unreliable computer EVER as far as stability for music. My audiophile records for like 10 sec. before the sound cuts out, everytime, but of course that's not apple's fault.
Never buying apple again. This is straw that broke the camels back. Anyone wanna trade a pc for my G5?
Sorry for the venting but this is where I draw the line!
Thanks,
Henry
