All Kinds Of Internet Problems - PLEASE HELP!
So I've been having all kinds of internet problems in my house. I'm almost positive part of it is router related but I just (somewhat scientifically) proved it's also related to my mini. I used speedtest.net to test both my brand new mac mini and my 2006 macbook pro running Leopard 10.5.1 (fresh install). Here's the specs and speed test results:
_*2006 Macbook Pro*_
Intel Core Duo 2.0GHz, 2GB RAM
OSX 10.5.1
*Average Results:*
Download - 4.72 Mb/s
Upload - 0.84 Mb/s
Ping - 24-38ms (range)
_*2009 Mac Mini*_
Intel Core 2 Duo 2.53GHz, 4GB RAM
OSX 10.6.2
Results:
Download - 0.78Mb/s
Upload - 0.97Mb/s
Ping - 15ms
*AFTER PRAM RESET:*
DL - 2.85Mb/s
UL - 0.98 Mb/s
Ping 22ms
*these were the BEST results and far above the average I got
Router:
Netgear WGR614v9 running latest firmware
WEP 128bit security B/G combined broadcast
We were running WPA2 security but when I switched to WEP everyone in the house noticed a speed increase.
The tests were run within a span of 10 minutes and both computers were about 2 feet away from each other.
Can someone please explain to me why my nearly 4 year old MBP with an outdated OSX is spanking my brand new mini?
I apologize ahead of time as I am not sure I can answer your question, but I would like to ask you a question if I could...
Are you using your mini with Ethernet cable or Wireless. Not that there's a real difference in your case but sometimes if you're running with a Wired Ethernet cable on a unit that also has wireless, it helps to turn off the wireless.
And on the other hand if you are not running with Ethernet cable on the mini, you might think about trying that.

I'm in trouble, my iPod Touch is giving 4th shock when recharge and the battery does not last any more. who knows or has a similar problem, please help me. Note: all this after I downloaded the new version OS5.
I would make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store because of the shock issue. I doubt it was caused by the update.

i am using firefox 3.6.17 i upgraded it to 4.1.but it does not work properly sometimes it opens every website and most of the time it does not work . so what is the problem please help . thank you
Did you check your security software (firewall)?
A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox and the plugin-container process.

how do i deactivate the auto updation on my iphone 4,i want to use only watsapp but when i am turning on my celleular data all apps starts updating theirself,please help me.I am not using any internet pack other than watsapp.
iPhone do not do automatic update. You have to manually trigger the updates.
If your Settings > iTunes & App Stores > Automatic Downloads > Music, Apps, Books are ON then when you purchase any new content/item with any devices/computer iTunes, it will automatically download. Switch it OFF if you do not want that to happen. -
Every time I sync my Iphone 5c(with ios 8) to Itunes, it 1. deletes all of my purchased music 2. deletes all of my album artwork 3. replaces all of my deleted songs. please help! this is driving me crazy! It syncs 100+ songs, when I only want to sync 1! I'm running Itunes 11.3.1.2
After having experienced similar problems and having it back to work, I have a few suggestions:
- Try to find out if the syncing stops at a particular track or song. That might - out of the blue - have gotten corrupted in one way or another. Since that song will not be on the iPod, iTunes will try over and over to put it on and crash in one way or another;
- reformat the iPod as described in the iTunes 9 crash-thread. It takes time (at first it seems to do nothing, but that is because the green bar is moving with very small steps);

Hi i recieved an ipod touch gen 5 for christmas and it worked perfectly on the 30th it decided to instantly shut down on me and over heat iv tried all of apples recommeded techniques but it wont work at all even when charging someone please help me!
Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

X-Fi Fatal1ty Plat1num Champion Ed. problem, please help!
9X-Fi Fatalty Platnum Champion Ed. problem, please help!? Hi there everyone,
So i have a X-Fi Fatalty Platnum Champion Ed. and a computer with Windows 7.
I've searched the web and i found many people saying that the card it's working and perfectly compatible so i would like to exclude this option as far as the problems that i'm having.
So, right out of the box i've placed the front panel in with the ribbon cable and the power connected to it, then i connected the other end of the ribbon cable and finally placed the card in one of the PCI slots i have free.
Now, when i start my PC, i don't hear any particolar "beep messages" but nothing will come on the screen, in few words my PC will not boot at all. I can hear the HDD spinning, everything sounds normal except for that "little" problem.
So, i re-did all the connections thinking that maybe i did something wrong, but following the instruction i did exactly as told. So i tried again to power up the computer and i've noticed that the X-Fi logo is lit up (red light) and.. I don't really know if that means something or it's just something aside that doesn't really matter.. But, what is it's The PCI card is broken or there's something else?
I did try to disable the sound card (integrated mobo sound) from the BIOS but that didn't change anything. I did try all the software options but this looks like more of an hardware problem (please correct me if i'm wrong and/or i've missed something).
There's something that popped up in my mind.. the PSU. I noticed that i have a 300W PSU (mm.. low, isn't it's)?and i was wondering if that's enough or i need a more powerful one.. and if that's may be the case for the PCI to not work at all causing all i've already explained above. I mean.. It seems like i've installed a dead peripheral and that's impeding the computer to start up..
I don't know.. I need clarification and help, PLEASE.
Thank you very much in advance!Look at the beta thread sticked above but good luck waiting for a new driver. That beta driver has been there since January and although better than the normal driver it is still crap.
All the boot type issues are with the SSD but if you getting in game crashes etc... under windows 8 that is simply that the driver stinks. -

Please help I have lots and lots of problems with lockups that can happen any time post , bios , loading vista and sometimes during OS. Some times will work ok play games etc. Already tried different combinations fitting the mem modules even tried and some pc4200 modules same problems. Spent lots of hours clocking the mems with different settings but non is stable. I am not interested in overcloking just to make it stable to start with. When is actually running is fine is more than enough for me. Already looked to lots of posts on the msi forum but… Since the cpu is old can I go back on an older bios version???? The Corsair modules have to run at 2.1V or is it possible to use them with slower setting. So confused so lost ….. please HELLPPPPP
Any help greatly appreciated.please, don't buy any more unneded parts. first find the problem then buy if no solutions available.
One thing I find with BIOS issues is to do a full clear.
1. disconnect the power cord from the power supply(turn switch to off if there is one.
2. hit the power switch to clear the power out of the system.
3. set the cmos jumper to clear and leave there if one is available.
4. Pull the battery.
5. carefully short out the battery connector on the motherboard to drain any power left.
6. press the clear cmos button and hold for 30sec minimum, if you didn't have a jumper to set.
7. replace battery, move jumper back, plug in power cord, turn on power sipply switch.
Now it should hopefully power up. go into BIOS and load optimized results. hit save and exit and when it gets back to the post screen, go back into bios and set your normal MB settings(ie. set boot devices, boot order, disable sound if using sound card, etc...)
go into your H/W Monitor section and list the CPU Vcore settings to make sure it is getting the power it needs. I just looked it up and it's suppose to run from 1.225v - 1.325v.
also, try your most generic ram you have with auto settings. the faster the ram usually the more volts they need and default volts are 1.8v for ram and sometimes faster chips have issues with lower volts.
Let me know how this works for you.
-=Mark=-
ps. make sure everything is unplugged from the computer you don't need. just cpu, 1 stick of ram, and video. and of course keyboad and mouse. Please make a signature with all your systems specs including make and model numbers. I hate guessing at solutions and I'd hate to see you buy any more unneccessary parts because of lack of information. -

990fxa gd80 raid 0 problem please help me i am begging you
so i will start with my set up
990fxa dg80 mb
fx 8350 cpu
780ti
8 gig of ram
256 hdd
2x samsung 850 evo
750 hybrid drive
So at this stage all my data is on the 750 hdd and the disk is stored away. my problem started with me buyng 2 mx100 256 ssds . If my bios is set to ide or ahci they work fine i had my windows instaled on 1 of them all woks fine. Once i switch my bios to raid ( before i set up my raid 0) boot up win 7 instalation i do not see any drives ( i know is normal) load the drivers for the raid controler (sb950 for w7 as it says in themanual) and only my 256 hdd shows up but not the ssds . Than i set them up in ld raid 0 same problem . Tryed on another 2 mbs ... 1 same and a gygabite same problem. So i was sure there is a problem with ssds. I got rid of them got 2 new 850 evo 250 gb same problem. please help me i am so desparate i am willing to pay woth body organs for helpI..have a few questions...
1. You set BIOS to the RAID mode, and under that option there's a Board SATA RAID ROM, do you set it as Legacy ROM?
2. Did you enter Ctrl+F to initialize the drives/Delete Array(If they're used SSDs) and create RAID0?
3. Is your Win7 64 bit or 32 bit?
4. I assume it's 64 bit, did you copy the W764 folder for driver loading?
And make sure you get the driver from here:
