Box won't stay checked for my laptop to automatically connect to my wireless network.

I checked the box under "Wireless network properties" to "Connect automatically when this network is in range" but somehow it un-checks itself and then won't connect to my network until I re-check it again. The "un-checking" usually happens after
I put the laptop to sleep and then wake it back up. It also un-checks it when I restart my laptop. Any idea what is causing this to happen since it is very annoying. This doesn't happen with Windows XP...

Hi,
First, please try to update the network adapter driver to latest version to check the result.
Meanwhile, when trying to connect the Wireless network, please check the “Start the connection automatically” option. Then, when you trying to connect certain Wireless network next time,
it should connect to the Wireless network automatically.
Hope this helps.

  • Automatic Downloads Boxes Won't Stay Checked

    I have Automatic Downloads setup for my iPhone, meaning the switches for Automatic Downloads of my Music, Apps & Books are set to 'ON'.
    On my Retina Display Macbook Pro when I enter iTunes Store preferences and open the Store tab, Music, Apps & Books are un-checked.
    So I check all 3 and press 'OK' to save my selections. The problem is when I re-open the Store tab the boxes have un-checked themselves. I try to check only one of them and press 'OK' but still, it doesn't save. I'm running OS X 10.8.1.
    A few things I have done:
         1) Logged in and out of my iTunes account on my Mac
         2) Logged in and out of my iTunes account on my iPhone
         3) iTunes Preferences > Advanced Tab > Reset All Dialog Warnings: Reset Warnings
    What must be done?

    Mea Culpa. I restarted my Mac and all is well. The boxes now stay checked and the phone syncs without a problem.

  • Has anyone solved the Outlook .dll not staying checked for sync?

    I have tried reinstalling everything and updating everything I know to update. When I start outlook 2003 that second .dll still gives me a runtime error. So I have to manually check it every time I want to sync.
    Thanks for any tips out there.

    Thanks. I should have stated it isn't disabled. It just crashes at launch. It tries to start but just won't stay checked.

  • Show itunes in the cloud purchases won't stay checked

    For months now, when I open iTunes the option "show itunes in the cloud purchases" won't stay checked.  I have to restart, sign out and sign back in and then the option only shows up half the time.  This is VERY frustrating.  What gives?!?

    I think I restored a very old system and must install a newer itunes. Not sure how to erase this.

  • Does anyone have trouble connecting to their wireless network, after being logged on for some time? Mountain Lion.

    I am having trouble connecting to my wireless network.  It works when I startup my computer but, after a while it can't seem to find the wireless network. I have an Airport Extreme and the light is green. The only way to remedy this problem is to restart my computer. Mountain Lion isn't that great after all not to mention it distorts some images when scrolling. I am kindly asking for some advice, I assume a major update will be coming soon.

    You don't by chance have a "invisible" or "hidden" network enabled on the router?
    Because Mac's won't reconnect automatically now to hidden network only upon reboots, it's sort of like advertising the hidden network if you take the computer elsewhere.
    Also hidden networks are no deterrent to hackers, they see all.
    Also check your time and date, make sure they accurate first, then save that, then make sure it's updated via Apple time servers in your general location (System Preferences > Time and Date) If your being kicked off, your DCHP lease might be expiring too early.

  • IPhone 5 won't connect to home wireless network

    After updating to iOS 7 my iPhone 5 has been unable to connect to the wireless network in my home.  It will recognize it, ask me to input password, and then it will say it cannot connect.  I have shut the iPhone 5 on/off, turned on/off the wireless, turned on/off the bluetooth, and attempted to install the latest iOS update (but cannot because it won't let me unless I am connected to wifi).
    I am having this problem with my MacBook Pro as well.

    There is something wrong with your wireless router or network - especially if you have no problem connecting your iPhone and MPB with any other wi-fi network besides your own.
    Have you tried resetting your wireless router and network in conjunction with the modem, and/or have you checked the manufacturer's website to see if there is a firmware update available for your wireless router model that has not been installed?
    What type of encryption are you using with your wireless network - WEP, or WPA2?

    Does the iOS devices connect to other networks?
    Does the iOS devices see the network?
    Any error messages?
    Do other devices now connect?
    Did the iOS device connect before?
    Try the following to rule out a software problem:                 
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Power off and then back on the router
    - Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
    - iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
    - Wi-Fi: Unable to connect to an 802.11n Wi-Fi network
    - iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
    - Restore from backup. See:
    iOS: How to back up
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    If still problem make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

    Since both iPhone and iPod stopped connecting I suspect a problem with your network.

  • Two laptops in the same place - only one connects to a wireless network

    I share a room with the guy I'm working with, and his computer (older MB) easily connects to the wireless connection for a fast connection. He has full bars on the Airport icon. My older MBP took several tries to even connect to the wireless network and it doesn't get many bars. It is very slow. Is there any fix to this problem?

    "Is there any fix to this problem? "
    To avoid the +"been there done that"+ scenarios, please advise what troubleshooting methods you have already tried to rectify the problem.
    Have you run the network or router Diagnostic test for example? Check your network and router settings?

  • ATV2 won't connect to my wireless network.

    My ATV2 won't connect to my wireless network, although the network shows up in the list of networks and I'm using the correct password.  A laptop approximately 1 foot away connects wirelessly to the network.  ATV has worked in the past - haven't tried it recently.  Tried reset - didn't help.  Any suggestions?

    If your wireless router is setup to use WPA or WPA2 security then you need to make sure you match this within your Apple TV device.
    You probably already know to match case sensitivity in your password.

  • TS1398 my friend had her laptop at my house and wanted to connect to my wireless network.  I could not remember my pass word/ Id so she couldn't go online.  How do I find out what it is so that others may connect to the internet when at my home. Thanks.

    My friend had her laptop at my house and wanted to connect to my wireless network... I couldn't remember my password and didn't know how to retrieve the info from my ipad.. How can I find ut what the PW is to my wireless network? Thanks

    Your password is something you created and is configured in your router. Your router may have the facility to reveal a password but you will have to find that out for your router.
    Alternatively, you can reset your router back to factory default which will remove your security settings so you can reconfigure them. This is usually a small button you press on the back of the router. Maybe recessed in a small hole so you need to use a toothpick to depress it.

    Is there a way to configure win 8 Laptop to airport express?  I can see the connection to the wireless network, but troubleshooter suggests there's there is no gateway and of course no internet. The connection

    The internal HDDs must be formatted in either EXT3 or EXT4 file system because NSS uses Linux OS.  This is mainly because the RAM designed to fit with the customized Linux OS's size.
    You can connect to an external HDD via a  USB or eSATA port. The external HDD's file system can be NTFS, FAT32, AFT or EXT3/4 to be recognized for read/write. You can connect a 2TB USB/eSATA drive connec to the NSS via USB port to format your HDD for NTFS, AFT, FAT32, or EXT3/4 partition.
    You can join the NSS to a Windows domainr so all domain users to access NSS. You cannot replace the NSS for the Windows 2003 SP2 server. They are two different products and do different jobs. Windows server is features sets server while the NSS is the files/data server.
    Hope that helps!!
