Bizarre problem - networking and menubar issues

Hi all
Odd problem with our 24" iMac at work. It's running OS X 10.4.7.
Over the last few days for some reason the clock, Airport Signal and anything else in the top right of the menubar has disappeared. In addition to this, it seems networking isn't working either as we can't connect to the internet to perform any updates (hence why it's not got 10.4.8 to try to fix the problem!)
Whenever I start sys preferences then go to networking after a reboot it claims to have found new hardware (FireWire). Occasionally, Sys Preferences just crashes instead.
Any ideas?

Michael,
I have been reading the thread and I have the same problem. I looked into the systemlog and found the following entry.
Host Name: felix-wittes-mac-mini

It seems that the iPod file is somewhat corrupt.
What do I do from here ?

Double computer name on network and NAT issue with Back to My Mac

These are the problems I am having:
When my MacPro workstation (which on the network is named "The Beast") wakes from sleep - I get a message saying "there is already a computer on the network with the name "The Beast". Other computers on the network can now find you at "The Beast-2"" and it gives me a new name in the file sharing preferences - even though it is the only computer on the network with that name.
Why is this happening???
The other problem is with BackTo My Mac - When I try to enable it - I get an error message saying "Turn off NAT Addressing" - which I thought was turned off since the AEBS is in Bridge Mode. Why is this happening?
Here is my network setup which consists of the Modem / Router from my ISP - an Airport Extreme Base Station and one Airport Express - which is connected to my MacPro via ethernet. The MacPro does not have an airport card installed and is running OSX 10.6.8 - all other computers / devices are running 10.7.x and iOS6).
VDSL Modem / Router (from Internet provider) with wireless turned off - (so it is not broadcasting a competing wireless signal) - connected via ethernet to my Airport Extreme Base Station.
Here are all the settings on the AEBS and the Airport Express: - I am using Airport Utility 5.6.1 on my Mac Pro running OSX 10.6.8 - so the setup prefs are different than the newer version of Airport Utility found on 10.7.x systems - but both work fine. Although I did notice that the option to allow ethernet clients to connect to the Airport Express does not exist (or I just didn't find it) in the newer version of Airport Utility.
Airport Extreme Base Station is set up as follows:
Wireless Mode: Create a Wireless Network
Wireless Settings:
Allow this network to be extended IS CHECKED
Radio Mode: 802.11n (b and g compatible)
Wireless Security: WPA/WPA2 Personal
Access Control:
MAC Address Access Control: Not Enabled
Internet Settings:
Internet Connection:
Connect Using: Ethernet
Connection Sharing: OFF (Bridge Mode).
TCP/IP:
Configure IPv4: Using DHCP
Advanced Settings:
Logging & Statistics:
Syslog Destination Address is blank (as in nothing appears in this field).
Syslog Level: 5 - Notice
Allow SNMP is CHECKED
MobileMe:
Back to my Mac is turned off - but if I try to turn it on I get an error message saying "Turn off NAT Addressing - which I thought was turned off since the AEBS is in Bridge Mode. Why is this happening?
IPv6:
IPv6 Mode: Link-local only
As stated - my MacPro with no wifi card - is connected via ethernet to an Airport Express which connects wirelessly to the AEBS for network and internet access.
Airport Express Settings:
Airport Settings:
Wireless Mode: Join a Wireless Network
Allow Ethernet Clients IS CHECKED
Wireless Security WPA/WPA2 Personal
Internet Settings: Are grayed out (as in I can't change these settings - I assume because they are being controlled by the AEBS) and read as follows:
Connect Using: Wireless Network
Connection Sharing: OFF (Bridge Mode)
TCP/IP:
Configure IPv4: using DHCP
All other settings are identical to the AEBS.
All other WiFi devices in the house (MacBook Pro, iPhones, iPad's, iMac, Apple TV, Nintendo Wii etc…all are able to connect to the network and connect to the internet - no problem.
Thanks for any insights into what might be causing the double name on the network and why it is asking me to turn off NAT addressing - when both my Airport devices are in Bridge Mode?

I am also having this issue... any updates on this??

Having trouble with social networks and connection issues

My iPad won't load any pictures on facebooks website, or the app. It will load google pictures but on Facebook they come up as a blue question mark and it also won't let me log into intagram or snapchat, it says check your network connection. Also my app store won't load. Is there anyway to fix this? I restarted my iPad multiple times and cleared all cookies and data but it didn't help. I had a provisioning profile from an GBA emulator awhile back and I deleted the emulator but not the profile. I recently tried to download the emulator again and this is when problems started. I deleted the profile but nothing seems to work. I have an IPad 2, is there anyway to fix this without going to Apple? I'm not good with all this tech stuff

Networking and DNS issues

I am trying to get my domain set up and I am running on two routers. The first router is set up on a 10.0.0.1 network, and my network is on a 192.168.1.1 network. I am able to get out to my ISP via port forwarding, but I am not able to set up a DNS. The
wizard runs me through the forward lookup zones and my servers IP address in validated, but then it says that the DNS could not be created. Also, my product ID is not able to be activated because the activation server reported that the product key has exceeded
its unlock limit. How do I fix this?

Make sure local DNS server has a static address and own address as primary and 127.0.0.1 as secondary (assuming only one DNS server) in network connection properties and is not multi-homed. Also put public DNS addresses as
forwarders only on local DNS server. Client should have local DNS address
ONLY so client can find and logon to domain.
Posting an unedited ipconfig /all may also help.
Start, click Run, type SLUI 04, and then click
OK for phone activation.

Network and signals issues.

I bought new Lumia 925 two months back. Besides other problems mentioned by others, i am adding these. First is, the phone doesn't automatically search for network signals. Suppose i am taking my phone with me through a no signal area like lifts, basements and come back to signal zone i have to manually search for signal and network All times. Second is, to enable data connection i have to restart the phone all times. Third is, when i am getting incoming calls, the slide up doesn't work sometimes and i couldn't attend the calls. Because of these problems, i couldn't use my phone as simple phone. I updated the software and i reset the phone. Still the problems persist.

Hi surenav,
Welcome to Nokia Support Discussions!
Have you tried to remove the SIM card and re-insert it back? Also, is it possible for you to use another SIM card to further check the issue? Is the Network selection under Settings > Cellular already set to automatic? How did you perform the reset? Is it by going to Settings > About > Reset your phone?
Please keep us posted.

JUST PROBLEMS rendering and quality issues

Hey, all.
I've been posting here a few months and recently got a mac and fcp. I've been editing for over ten years on velocity and avid. Had great luck at figuring stuff out with manuals and the threads and freinds. But I'm at a total loss trying to figure out how to squeeze a decent title out of FCP. I've gone through the manuals, checked the settings, tried many workarounds and options, and I still get the jagged, shimmery text, especially on moves. I'm not doing anything special -- just a lame title. These titles look amatuerish -- quite frankly the kind of work I thought the amatuers were doing on FCP all the years I avoided it along with premeire -- wedding video crap systems. Okay, fcp and premeire have come a long way. AND I WANT TO LOVE THIS THING! BUT man, why is it so crazy just to get a right combo of settings to churn out a stupid title? Rendering makes things look worse. I've done everything! If someone is in Orange County/Anaheim and can drop by, I'll pay you! Seriously, this is terrible.
It seems like anybody struggling with this jagged title stuff on these posts never really solves anyting except for getting slightly better results and just plainly settling for less. I know I must be doing something wrong, but what???
Sorry about the rant. call me 714 280-8201
-C

Thanks for responding: Right now I'm using after effects. It's a little better. Ever since I've started on a mac I've had this issue. Yes, PC background.
Anyway, I've tried many approaches, Titler, motion, png alpha files with motion moves, boris titler -- all with low quality results. Everything is played back on a monitor, one via component, the other via sdi.
my timeline is dvcpro50, all the settings I know about are set to best. Fields set to none. I forgot all the other stuff I looked at, checked and tried. I think there's a fundamental thing I don't understand about rendering. The sequence rendering drop down menu has about 30 options, that are just foreign to me. I better spend more time with the manual. But I'm selecting render all with all the options checked for rendering. I get a grey bar over the timeline suggesting to me that everything is rendered. It's got to be user error combined with a really convolutive way to set up projects and workflow by fcp.
thanks, chase

Anyone else had issues with phone network being unavailable on iPhone 4 since updating to iOS 5.0.1? My iPhone 4 is continually searching for a network and does not find my provider. I swapped SIMs with another iPhone 4 on ios 4 to confirm device problem.

Has anyone else had issues with phone network being unavailable on iPhone 4 since updating to iOS 5.0.1? My iPhone 4 is continually searching for a network and does not find AT&T, my provider. I swapped SIM cards with another iPhone 4 running ios 4 and established this is a device problem, not a SIM card problem.

Does the device get any signal?
Sounds like the device may have had a hardware failure. If it is out of warranty, the only option is the Out of Warranty replacement.
AppleCare is only an option if it is still under the original warranty.

I have a new Macbook pro and need to run some Windows software, it appears "Parallel" should work well from what I've have read. Will I have any issues or problems accessing and printing from various printers on my Windows 7 network within Parallel?

First, back up all data immediately, as your boot drive might be failing.
There are a few other possible causes of generalized slow performance that you can rule out easily.
Reset the System Management Controller.
If you have many image or video files on the Desktop with preview icons, move them to another folder.
If applicable, uncheck all boxes in the iCloud preference pane.
Disconnect all non-essential wired peripherals and remove aftermarket expansion cards, if any.
Check your keychains in Keychain Access for excessively duplicated items.
If you have more than one user account, you must be logged in as an administrator to carry out this step.
Launch the Console application in the same way you launched Activity Monitor. Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar.
Select the 50 or so most recent entries in the log. Copy them to the Clipboard (command-C). Paste into a reply to this message (command-V). You're looking for entries at the end of the log, not at the beginning.
When posting a log extract, be selective. Don't post more than is requested.
Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
Important: Some personal information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting. That should be easy to do if your extract is not too long.

Officejet Pro 8610 - Can't connect to wireless network (and has similar issue with previous printer)

When I returned from a trip, I was unable to connect to my trusty HP All-in-one 7510 that I had on my network for three years. I tried troubleshooting it, reinstalling the software on numerous computers, and fixing the printer, but alas the printer said that it was connected to the network, and none of my computers wanted to find it anymore.
Then I bought my new Officejet Pro 8610 this week, set it up...and I am experiencing the same issue. I tried using the link and support took from this post - http://h30434.www3.hp.com/t5/Printer-All-in-One-Install-Setup/Officejet-Pro-8610-Can-t-connect-to-wi... but the printer was unable to be found on the network.
I would appreciate any help on this issue. Thanks!

Hello @Celestialnova ,
Welcome to the HP forums.
I understand that you are having problems with your wireless network.
I would like to help.
Since the same issue happened with two different model of printers, lets take a moment to check the network.

Network and Sharing Centre problems (again)

I seem to be tearing my hair out once again with the Network List Service. Several months back the Network and Sharing centre stopped displaying or reporting the active networks, although I was connected with internet access. A consequence was most of the
Metro apps would not work as they thought the computer was off-line.
The problem seemed to be that the permissions were wrong in the Network List hierarchy and adding Full Control for my user account in 'HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows
NT\CurrentVersion\NetworkList' seemed to solve the problem.
Once again thought the Metro apps are not working reporting no internet connection and the Network and Sharing centre has the following message:
Unknown
The service to detect this status is disabled
More Information
When I select More Information I get a dialog asking if I want to turn on Network List Service, when I click "Turn this on' nothing happens.
Having looked in the Event Viewer, there are a large number of this entry, maybe it is related?
DCOM got error "1068" attempting to start the service netprofm with arguments "Unavailable" in order to run the server:
Network List Service is reported as running in Services.msc. and task manager.
I tried to check the permissions in the registry key as I did before but key was missing (i think). I tried switching to a local account on the computer from my Microsoft Live account but no change, although when I checked the registry, the NetworkList
key was there and the permissions were correct. Maybe I was just looking in the wrong place but I was pretty sure it was missing...
Not sure where to go next with this..

Hi,
The Network and Sharing centre opens as normal but where you would normally see
'View your active networks' followed by the network or list of networks that you are connected to it just says:
Unknown (when view your active networks would be)
The service to detect this status is disabled
More Information
Clicking on 'More information' informs me that the Network List Service is not running and asks if I want to start it, clicking yes does nothing. The Network list Service is listed as running in Service.msc
I have tried a full virus scan and also ran a whole host of anti malware tools and the computer seems clean. I also tried sfc /scannow with no problems detected.
I restored and old clonezilla backup I had and it is fine now but made a system backup before I did. This is the second time this has happened and I would like to find a solution so I will revert back to the drive image with the issue and post a screen shot.

Hello, Toro Silva.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
The steps in the section labeled Unable to activate FaceTime or iMessage with phone number and Apple ID after waiting 24 hours (iPhone only) of the article below, should help resolve the issue. Make sure to create a current backup prior to processing these steps.

Problems opening and saving PNG over network with CS2 and CS3

using os10.4.11
photoshop CS2 or CS3
I've recently tried to save images in PNG format, small (no more than a couple hundred kilobytes) and found that whenever I tried to save to the server it would hang photoshop and require a force-quit. Saving the same file to the desktop works fine. Copying said file to the network and then trying to open that PNG from the server results in a photoshop hang, while opening that same file from the desktop works fine. I know all about the fact that Adobe doesn't support working over a server, but that's never been an issue at my workplace in all the years I've worked with (never had problems saving/opening any format, no corrupted files ever). If I try to open that same PNG from the server with CS2, same result. If I try to open it over the server using Photoshop CS, or version 7, however, it opens just fine. If I copy the Photoshop CS version of the PNG plugin and replace the PNG plugin installed with CS3 by default, then it seems to work and I can now open and save PNGs anywhere with no problems. Has anyone else had this problem? I can see that the file size of the PNG plugin has changed version to version, so something about it has changed. It seems as though there is something defective about the ones installed with CS2/3, and just copying the CS version into my CS3 folder clears up the problem.
Also, the problem is not limited to my computer. Other macs that try to open PNG files from the server using CS3 or 2 also hang.

Yes, we're a prepress company moving around probably a few dozen gb of data per day, saving PSD, TIFF, EPS, JPEG, all kinds of formats. It's the first time I've had a client requesting PNG files, and so the issue has come to light. This is the first time I've ever seen any kind of issue opening/saving across our network in 8 years. (the only time I've ever seen a corrupt file was a 1.6gb image that didn't copy correctly, and that wasn't a photoshop-related corruption, but an OS drag/copy of the file)
I'm not sure if I'll be able to find someone with OS 10.5 or some other version to see if they cause problems. If anyone else reading this who works over a network can test a PNG open/save over their network and list their OS and Photoshop version it may help. I'm going to see if I can find some other computers to try it out on in the meantime and mention it to IT.

After installed mavericks i cannot sign in to my facetime and i messages. i tried it 100 times, but it is showing couldn't sign in check your network and try again. there is no problem with my network. if anyone knows the solution please help me .

Hi,
What version of the OS did you upgrade from ?
Anything before OS X 10.8.2 may have an issue if the Logic/Mother board has been replaced and the Serial Number not "flashed" back to it.
In the Apple Icon menu use the About this Mac item.
In the new panel click twice on the line that tells you the current OS level
It will change to the Build number (and alternative count to the OS versions) and then the Serial Number.
If it is missing you need to get it replaced.
(It is supposed to be done on Repair or Refurbishment).
An Apple Store or Apple Authorised Service Provider as the best choices.
There are apps you can download (They are Mac Model specific) but needs careful typing as it is a once only trip.

Nokia 500 Wi-Fi with problems (and other issues)

Hi there.
I had my Nokia 500 yesterday, but it seems to have several problems regarding wireless LAN. I usualy disable 3G traffic (WAP, GPRS, UMTS), so that my service provider doesn't charge me, and only enable with when necessary. But I want the phone to connect to known Wi-Fi networks when avaialable. However:
1 - When I enable "Only WLAN" in my country, several phone applications constantly annoy me about "no avaialable connection", even when its connected to a Wi-Fi LAN!
2 - Its constantly searching for wireless networks, and the Wi-Fi connection is intermitent. It fails and then it comes up all the time. I could not finish the download of a GPS map because the Wi-Fi would fail before the download could finish. And it only had 1 known Wi-Fi network avaialable.
3 - So I set it to use only WLAN, I set "WLAN energy saving" to off, "search networks" to "once in 30 minutes" (and not automatically), and Manual selecion of WLAN. Even like this, the WLAN connection sometimes fails, and then comes back!
Also, I cannot install software directly from OVI Store using WLAN (error downloading), and the phone crashed several times while recognizing and focusing a face using the camara.
I am trully disapointed with the phone. Does anyone have a solution for these problems?
Thanks.

You may want to check your battery and battery contacts. Make sure that a Centro battery has not been installed in this device as it is slightly smaller and will not maintain pressure on the battery contacts.
You can try placing a piece or 2 of paper behind the battery to make to contacts tighter. A loose battery can cause most of the issue you are describing.
