  • MIFI4620LE Jetpack blinking amber light--does this mean the battery is bad? Should the unit operate without the battery installed if plugged in?

    MIFI4620LE Jetpack blinking amber light--does this mean the battery is bad? Should the unit operate without the battery installed if plugged in?

    The MIFI4620LE Jetpack does not work without a battery installed, even when connected to an external power supply.
    I personally think that was a dumb design. I would think the unit would use more electricity when continually charging the battery than just powering the unit it's self, but that's the way Novatel made them.
    If your Jetpack works with the battery installed and connected to an external power supply, but does not power on with power supply disconnected, I would say that the battery is defective or worn out.
    You should be able to go to a nearby Verizon Store and have them either test the battery or put a new one in it to see if it works. Then you will know if you need to spend the $$ for a new battery. OR if you always use your Jetpack at home, or in your car, just use the old battery connect to a power supply or your cigarette lighter and save the cash.
    As the Customer Support person stated, the slow blinking amber light is a normal state when the Jetpack is turned on and connected to Verizon's service.
    I hope this solves your problem.

  • Does it mean that you express is bad when you plug it in and the light is a steady amber and my computer is unable to recognize it?

    Does it mean that your airport express is bad when you plug it in and the light stays a steady(not bliinking) amber and my computer is unable to find it?

    Thanks Bob for the respose. This is a unit that I have had and used for about a year. It was working perfectly, and then while being used, the green light all of a sudden went to solid amber and I haven't been able to get it green since. It does go green however for just a spilt second when plugged in and then returns right back to amber after it has been plugged in for a few moments. I have a feeling that it is history and is malfunctioning. I have tried a factory reset many times with no luck.

  • Lumia 720 camera gets bad after updating to Amber?...

    Hi guys,
    I got the Amber Update for my 720 last night. It's a nice little update, except the camera seems to perform worse. The images always seems to be washed out and more blurry. in low light it takes (much) brighter photos, but also a lot noisier and blurry. And the images always seems to have an awful green colour tint. I'm a bit annoyed right now . Anyone else experience this on their lumia?
    I attached two photos  for reference. One is taken before the update, and the other one is taken after it.

    the two images you posted definitely show worse image after update :/
    aside from increasing my average battery consumpution on standby, the amber did not affect the quality of my camera / fotos. i have no foto comparison for before n after, but with my overall experience in photography, id say the amber update somewhat improved the camera's low light performance, notwithstanding grain ofcourse.
    colors seem to still be acceptable. i think nokia has been able to improve their post processing software along with the update (as far as my experience is concerned).
    maybe a factory reset n re-install of the update would help. but before you do that, try to think really hard if you were in the right camera settings / using 'lenses' or other camera apps, etc.
    note : always backup your data before wiping the os

  • AirPort Extreme extends my network and has worked well for three months. Now it can no longer extend the network and flashes Amber. I have restored to factory settings moved it closer to time capsule and rebooted the system without luck

    i have a blinking Amber on my extreme now and it cannot extend the network.  It was working fine and nothing has changed. I have restored to factory settings moved it to another room and rebooted the system without luck. Any suggestions

    What OS are you running?
    Please give me a screenshot of the current AE setup..
    I strongly recommend if you have issues.. take control of all the variables. Apple routers have too much auto..
    Here is a list that I use for setups when using Yosemite.. but it relates to any OS.
    You will need to factory reset again to get going.
    Factory reset universal
    Power off the AE.. ie pull the power cord or power off at the wall.. wait 10sec.. hold in the reset button.. be gentle.. power on again still holding in reset.. and keep holding it in for another 10sec. You may need some help as it is hard to both hold in reset and apply power. It will show success by rapidly blinking the front led. Release the reset.. and wait a couple of min for the AE to reset and come back with factory settings. If the front LED doesn’t blink rapidly you missed it and simply try again. The reset is fairly fragile in these.. press it so you feel it just click and no more.. I have seen people bend the lever or even break it. I use a toothpick as tool.
    Then redo the setup from the computer with Yosemite or whatever you are using.
    1. Use very short names.. NOT APPLE RECOMMENDED names. No spaces and pure alphanumerics.
    eg AEgen5 for basestation.
    Use AE24ghz and AE5ghz for wireless on each band, with fixed channels as this also seems to help stop the nonsense.
    2. Use all passwords that also comply but can be a bit longer. ie 8-20 characters mixed case and numbers.. no non-alphanumerics.
    3. Ensure the AE always takes the same IP address.. this is not a problem for router but if the AE is bridged you can have trouble.. Try using the static IP method or control it via the main router dhcp reservations.
    4. Check your share name on the computer/s is not changing.. make sure it also complies with the above.. short no spaces and pure alphanumeric..
    5. Make sure IPv6 is set to link-local only in the computer. For example wireless open the network preferences, wireless and advanced / TCP/IP.. and fix the IPv6. to link-local only.
    6. Set up the extend to the Express using 2.4ghz and then see how good or bad the connection is.. this is better in the old v5 utility but if you hover your mouse over where it shows connection an extra chunk of info comes up.
    I have specifically used 5ghz to make the extend.. because by testing it works better.. but do not be fooled.. this good connection is poor.. the RSSI.. which is difference signal .. at -79dbm is down the bottom of the stable.. and it drops out on a daily basis.. you want to see that signal around -60dbm at min.
    There is a lot more jiggery pokery you can try but the above is a good start.. if you find it still unreliable.. don't be surprised.

  • Magsafe Adapter show amber light but it's not charging.

    I have a problem with my Macbook Air (Mid 2011), when I plug the Magsafe AC Power Adapter sometimes just doesn't charge the battery, sometimes shows the green light and sometimes the amber light.
    I tried restarting the SMC, also I tried to use other Magsafe Adapter. Even I tested the Magsafe with another Macbook and works fine.
    I already cleaned both ports with a toothbrush.
    I don't know what else I can do. Please help me.

    Do you have a friend with a MacBook? If so try their power adapter and see if that works. If it does then you have a bad power adapter. And check this Apple Support article http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1713

  • Can I use my time capsule with a bad hard drive as a wireless router if I remove the hard drive?

    I have a 500 GB time capsule with a failed HD (i've repalced the whole machine with a new time capsule).  I cannot get past the start up when I plug it in and the light glows a solid amber.  If I remove the hard drive can I use it as just a wireless router to exted my network?

    Yes, although the existing power supply might go bad before long.. you can run the TC as just an AEBS..
    It is a fairly easy job to get the hd out.

    Key to it is using hot air gun or even a hair dryer on really high temp lowest fan and spend enough time getting to glue to soften.

  • Airport Express 801.11b/g and the neverending, unconfigurable blinking amber light

    Gather round and let me tell you a tale. Once upon a time I bought an airport express 801.11b/g and I was very happy to use it for airtunes, extending a wi-fi network and the wireless printing capabilities. One day, it beagn flashing a scaaaary amber light. The base station stopped showing up in my airport utility 5.6 as well. The only way to get it to show up, was to hard reset it, and lose all the configurations I once enjoyed happily. After the hard reset, It would show up in the utility, and I would reconfigure it to do all its cool things it once did, and it would restart. But sadly, after restarting the blinking amber light came on a again. It would also not show up in the utility unless I hard reset it again, and the same thing happened over and over and over until I felt like pulling my hair out.
    I decided to get another airport express a few months later, ultimately deciding that the unit must have just been defective. Bad luck. But - the second unit literally went through the SAME EXACT THING. Worked for a while, then onto the blinking amber light- hard reset- reconfigure-blinking amber light thing. Over and over and over. Just like the first one. The end.
    So - either Im missing something totally fundamental or I had the misfortune of getting two defective units in a row. Both were bought used from different places, and worked "fine" for previous owners. Am I corrupting these things or what?
    I have spent literally hours trying all the resets, configuring "workarounds" and nothing works. For both of them.
    What do I do with these two devices? I don't need two shiny white paperweights.
    Please advise,
    Thanks.

    Yes. It seems an integral part of the set up process though, you don't have to seperately configure the airport do you?
    My wireless security is WPA/WPA2 Personal. When I go through the standard network set up, it automatically enters my wireless security settings. So it doesn't really seem to give an option to specifically set that option on the airport if that makes sense?
    I did go through maunual mode to try that with the same result:
    If I'm using the airports own network and connect to the wifi, no security, then I'm getting airtunes from my macbook. Of course this means it's plugged into my router via ethernet which isn't any use to me as I want it in my kitchen, and would rather not limit my apple devices to b/g when I have a decent N router, and would also mean running a huge ethernet cable across my house!
    The seller has said it worked for him but he's not up to scratch on his tech, so if I'm sure it's malfunctioning he'll refund. Obviously this is great news and he seems like a very nice guy so I want to be certain it's not me malfunctioning before I send it back!
    So in summary I have it functioning on it's OWN network:
    Wireless mode: Create a wireless network
    Wireless network name: Apple Network XXXXXX
    etc
    Once 'wireless mode' is switched from 'create a wireless network' to 'join a wireless network' I select my current WiFi, security and password, checked the TCP/IP settings all good. Select 'Update'. Get the warning that device and network will be temporarily unavailable am I sure I want to continue. Then it goes through the same as before, says it's succesful, restarts to flashing amber with no way of accessing it unless I hard reset.
    Thanks for the help so far...

  • MCS-7835-H3 Hard Disk Led Amber Alarm

    Hello Everybody,
    I have a MCS-7835-H3 Server, running DMS 5.2.1. The Server has 4 hard disk, (300Gb every disk). I've noticed one hard disk is alarmed, the led is color amber.
    I was looking for some documentation about this but i can't find anything.
    I was looking at the applience and AAI interface for some information about the disks status and nothing... in the log files neither...
    Can somebody helpme to know what is going on?
    So many thanks!

    Hello,
    This looks like hardware issue, maybe bad sectors, I would recommend opening a TAC case. They can run Hardware diagnostics on the drive to determine the exact cause of the alert - It may need a replacement.
    Thanks,
    Sagar Dhanrale

  • HT201250 light is amber, no dns on my time machine

    my issue with time machine is it says another network is using my id. Now amber light is continous evenafter restartins, and says I hve no dns help please

    DNS stand for Domain Name Server, it's a server your ISP (usually unless it's changed) uses to resolve a Domain Name like Apple.com into a iP address like 94.174.85.343 (only a example) this way your computer can connect to that IP address.
    Because the IP address can change and keep it's smae name, like a business can change location yet still remain the same name, the DNS is updated to reflect these changes so your connecting to the correct site.
    Your signature says your on 10.6.3, this is outdated, I hope you have at least updated to 10.6.8 under the Apple menu > Software Update. Applying security updates is important.
    When you say another computer is using your id, that means something is wrong that another comptuer on your local network is using the same local IP that your machine is using.
    You seem to have a lot of issues and perhaps don't know a whole lot about computers and networks, it wouldn't be a bad decision to call in a local professional to resolve your problems and secure your network, look for trjoans (Flashback) you may installed on your machine by accident.
    I suspect this is what has happened, as the DNS is changed. It might be your ISP DNS server is down, you might want to wait.
    Why your TimeMachine drive is not funtional is another strange issue. Perhaps you have it confused with something else?
    More information is required and we may be able to assist.

  • Nokia LUMIA AMBER update release dates????

    I'm dying for lumia amber update for my 820.Microsoft release its GDR 2 update.but i can't download it to my phone,,coz nokia did't launch it.please hurry n release the AMBER UPDATE as soon as possible.I'm really curious about it.PLEASE RELEASE IT ASAP

    The Amber Update was available TODAY for any WP8 phone but once NOKIA got wind of it they shut it down fast. They will leave us 810 owners in the dust EVEN thought those who downloaded the newest version on their 810's
    HAVE NO issues whatsoever. NOKIA wants it to be exclusive to just few models and not all WP8's
    And that's too bad  810 owners buy a Lumia 810 and 5 months later NOKIA won't provide updates. Nice.

  • I need to connect an Airport Express to an exisitng Wi-Fi Netgear Router. 1) My PC do not detect the Airport Express, 2) AE is flashing amber all the time... Please if someone can help?

    I need to connect an Airport Express to an exisitng Wi-Fi Netgear Router. 1) My PC do not detect the Airport Express, 2) AE is flashing amber all the time... Please if someone can help?

    Before I bought it I did the same question at the Apple Store, and they told me "You can extend your existing Wi-Fi Signal with Airport Express wireless...
    You cannot extend wireless from any brand except another apple router.. the store might have assumed you were using an apple main router. Most people who buy express buy them to extend an extreme or time capsule.
    You are correct .. in the setup documents it does say 5.6.1 is adequate to do the setup.. my bad.. !!

  • AE won't stop flashing "amber"

    My Airport Extreme won't stop flashing amber and it is no longer broadcasting its wireless network, which is bad news for me. All of the wired Ethernet router features are still working, as the device is attached to my cable modem and all network devices (i.e. my Mac Pro, BD player, DirecTV receiver) attached to the Airport Extreme via Ethernet are seeing the internet and working, but wireless is dead. Airport Utility cannot find the device, so I can't even do a manual setup, because that option is grayed out. I've tried restarting the unit several times, but to no avail -- it just restarts and begins flashing the amber light. What should I do? Is my AE's wireless functionality dead?

    No clue why its doing it, maybe some corrupt settings?
    But if you want to fix it, I would recommend doing a factory reset. To do that press and hold the reset button on the back for 10-15 seconds, until the light stats flashing very fast, then let go of the reset button and let the airport reboot.
    That should fix your problems, only downside is that you'll have to set it all up again since after a factory reset all your settings get wiped out.

  • Apple TV LED blinking amber non-stop, no video, no audio

    As described in the header, my Apple TV (120GB) has its LED blinking amber non-stop, no video, no audio. It is about 2 months old and I have never had issue with it before.
    The manual says this indicates that it is starting up, but I can tell you, it is not starting up.

    Is the light only blinking amber? White and amber mean bigger problems. See what apple says.
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=305099
    If all you are getting is a bad booting, try running a diagnostic.
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=305190
    Also, if you give it a reboot (unpluging), leave it unplugged for a good 30 seconds to a minute. I bet there could still be power to the logic board, and you need to let the internal led bleed it dry otherwise the internal memory can cause some problems.

  • Recent AMBER ALERT recv'd on phone

    I do believe the Amber Alert notifications have gone beyond anything it was designed for. 
    I do not like it on my phone and wish to remove this service, if you want to call it that.  Does anyone know how to do this.  I understand ATT customers also recv'd the Amber Alert.  It is bad enough that I have government digging into my pocket all the time. I do not need them blasting notices to me on my private phone.  Verizon, can you please keep them off my phone or at least give me the option of disabling this service.  I will look for a phone service that will allow me to do this if Verizon doesn't get on the ball.  Its bad enough they let the government have all our phone records, now we have to listen to them give us warnings, wanted or not.

    I bet it made ya wonder if some Aliens were coming).  Well, when we had all those Flood Warnings going up My Dads work phone which is Just a regular Verizon phone Went off and my two Razr's Went off and when you get three phone going off at the same time it's Wake up Shaker!  So i can just imagine the Noise all of those phones made at the same time..
