Bluetooth stopping every 1-2 hours

When using my iMac 27, suddenly the Bluetooth will stop work, and both mouse and keyboard will simultaneously be lost. The IMac will report, that there is no connection to the devices.
Tried clicking the devices, and waiting for a very long time, but once it happens, only rebooting (by holding the power button on the back) helps. Connection is restored once it runs again.
The 1-2 hours later, the same...
I have MAYBE seen a connection between this issue, and when I am using a BELKIN Bluetooth device as the Sound Out on the IMac, but not sure.

Since your router is old and now adding more devices would require more traffic to the network. Hence upgrading firmware would be a good option.
For upgrading the firmware check this.

  • My ipad 3 Bluetooth stops working for several seconds every few minutes

    My ipad Bluetooth stops working for a few seconds every few minutes...very annoying. Any solutions?

    firefox has become a somewhat of a pig. it is actually funny and i know this problem will soon be cured but.... here was this "anti-IE" thing that came out a while ago saying "we're the fastest browser in the world" and indeed they were. as a 13 year microsoft employee/veteran i was reluctant to try it, but try it i did. that was years ago. now all of a sudden here i am and for the past several months at least, firefox has been pausing every few seconds or so. it is totally annoying and has me researching the cause. i'm a techie/quite computer literate and know how to tweak and configure to get every last ounce of speed out of my system. let me tell you... firefox is no longer the fastest browser on the planet.... they have issues. why? they have a lot of code and maintaining a complex piece of software (they are finding) is not easy. BUT, the problem lies within firefox's code base... i've used the latest version of IE, safari and chrome and neither is suffering from the pausing problem.
    how can you repro this problem? go to any webform (gmail, this forum, et al) and start typing... there will be an annoying pause every few seconds. while pausing, firefox pages out to disk, despite there being TONS of physical memory available... AND i have set my system to NO pagefile, yet firefox is paging...
    or, go to a long webpage (e.g. ebay and set the search results to 200. then just use your cursor to scroll down the page) and you'll see the same problem.
    hurry firefox... fix this annoying problem. i've been a happy and loyal FF user for at least 5 years

  • Radio streaming stops every half hour or so.

    I stream a radio station. However it stops every half hour or so. How can I keep it going? Internet speed is down 80 and up 9 megabits.

    Well, I don't know if you actually read my post, but I've already upgraded the firmware and power cycled it. Those setting are at their defaults: 100 for beacon interval, 2346 for frag thresh, and 2432 for RTS thresh. But, I did change them to the provided numbers yesterday; no change.
    Let me provide some more info. I also share my wireless internet connection on my laptop and hook up my Xbox 360 to it. Also, the router is three years old. Is it normal after this time frame for it to start malfunctioning? Should we go out and get a new one? I'm talking purely by hardware lifespan right now, we don't need a new one just because it has some more bells and whistles; the one we have now has worked well up until now.
    Thanks again.

  • Sql reporting services stops every 24 hours for a short time then restarts

    I have noticed that recently in sccm 2012 sp1 the sql reporting services stops every morning at 7:58 am and restarts after a minute or two.  The only entry in the event logs is when it stops.  I don't see anything tied in with it that stops or
    starts at the same time and there are no tasks or anything like that which would point to this time frame.  I just thought I would throw this out there to see if anyone had any ideas.  Usually with something of this nature there are some corresponding
    log entries that go beyond the service stopping, but in this case there isn't.  Thanks for any help you can provide.

    I think I found out what was going on.  I approached this from a different angle and was directed to the sql reporting services logs and found information on the reporting web server stopping.  Researching that yielded the following information. 
    It appears that this is a result of the SSRS Web Server recycling the App Domain, which is supposed to be a pretty normal process.  In fact, the configuration file for this process defaults to recycling the app domain twice daily.  This lines up
    with the time frame that the reporting service is stopping.  It restarts it in less that two minutes and logs the recyling in the reporting services log twice daily so why I'm not seeing this entry in the event logs twice daily or even every day must
    be a timing thing.  I think if it takes an extra millisecond or two to recycle the app domain, it dumps an entry into the windows event logs and the sccm component status monitoring.

  • Bluetooth stops working now and then

    My bluetooth stops working now and then. Let's say I haven't used bluetooth for a few hours and I want to sync my mobile phone. I try, but it's unable to connect. If I then try to turn off Bluetooth, I'm unable to turn it back on. In Bluetooth preferences, the status will be 'Off' and the 'Turn Bluetooth On' button is greyed out. The only way to get Bluetooth working again, is to restart OS X.
    Help!

    1. Boot from your system CD, run Disk First Aid and repair your permissions.
    2. Then try running it with Airport turned off.
    3. Reinstall the original RAM and run it that way for awhile.

  • Macbook air Wi Fi and sound stops every time it goes to sleep. i have to  restart it every time to use wifi and sounds. this started happening just after the latest upgrade to X. any reasons why its doing that and how to fix it.

    Macbook air Wi Fi and sound stops every time it goes to sleep. i have to  restart it every time to use wifi and sounds. this started happening just after the latest upgrade to OS X. any reasons why its doing that and how to fix it.

    Test after taking each of the following steps. Back up all data before making any changes.
    1. Make sure the network is on the preferred list by following these instructions. It's important to read the article carefully, as it's the starting point for any further efforts to solve the problem. If you skip any of the steps, the problem may not be solved.
    2. Follow the instructions in this support article under the heading "Symptom: The network connection drops unexpectedly."
    3. Make a note of all your settings for Wi-Fi in the Network preference pane, then delete the connection from the connection list and recreate it with the same settings. You do this by clicking the plus-sign icon below the connection list, and selecting Wi-Fi as the interface in the sheet that opens. Select Join other network from the Network Name menu, then select your network. Enter the password when prompted and save it in the keychain.
    4. From the Location menu at the top of the Network preference pane, select Edit Locations. A sheet will drop down. Click the plus-sign button to create a new location. Give it any name you want. In the new location, set up the Wi-Fi service with the same settings you used before. Click Apply and test.
    5. Launch the Keychain Access application. Search for and delete all AirPort network password items that refer to the network. Make a note of the password first.
    6. In some cases, the problem has been resolved by repairing permissions on the startup volume.
    7. Turn off Bluetooth and test.
    8. Reinstall OS X.

  • Audio Recording automatically stop every 5 minutes

    Thanks in advance

  • AirPlay on express stops after a few hours

    I have noticed lately that when I am streaming music to the speakers that are connected to my express that the music suddenly stops after a few hours. It's done this a few times now, and every time I have to unplug it to reset it and it works again. Is there a setting I missed out on when I set up the express? Or is it a setting in iTunes that meters how long music can be streamed?

    Hi dmule, I just replied to another topic here about this, I know you were involved in it but just in case you don't get notified I thought I should cross-link it here.

  • Why would my rental of 'midnight in Paris' stop every few minutes?

    Downloaded 'midnight in Paris' last night.  It took over 3 hours to watch a 93 minute movire.  I thought the film had downloaded when it began to play, but it kept stopping every few minutes.

    I think the other devices are fine.  I'm not sure.  It usually only happens like a couple days out of the week.  I do know that the network I'm using when I click on the wifi symbol at the top of my screen doesn't have a padlock on it.  It IS MY network that is at my house, but maybe that has something to do with it.

  • Why have the ports on the left of my macbook pro and the wifi and bluetooth stopped working?

    Hey All,
    About a week ago the two usb ports on the left of my 17" macbook pro, soundcard, wifi, and bluetooth stopped working. The power port, ethernet, remaining usb on the right are still functional. I've tried repairing the permissions and other software based solutions but to no avail. I'm worried that this might be a motherboard issue but am apprehensive about taking the ol' girl into a genius because it will probably cost more to repair than the remaining value of the system. Anyone have any ideas, can confirm my suspicion?
    Thanks!

    Well I'm using Google Chrome browser on Lion and when I type in that URL nothing happens. Except for the "This webpage is not available" banner.
    So it looks like your website is down and what you are getting on your devices are cache.
    Oh just deleted the www and now I see the page. Yup all the info looks intact. home about us products Q&A and so on.

  • Bluetooth stopped working on my ipad mini after ios7 update

    Bluetooth stopped working on my ipad mini and my iphone 5 after I updated to ios 7. My Ipad 4 which is not updated can't  see them either. Samsung devices can see them but not connect and they can't see each other. Help

    Have you tried a reset ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider if it appears), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
