Cannot cancel 'connecting to PC wirelessly' notification

I have just set up Wireless Media Transfer on my Xperia Z3 Compact running Android 5.0.2 (Lollipop?); the set-up worked fine as did the subsequent file transfer activities.
However, I now get a notification 'connecting to PC wirelessly' all the time (if the PC is shut down or I am away from the house) and I cannot close the message.
If I tap the message, then I get an option 'cancel connection' but even when this is clicked, the notification persists; it doesn't even go away for a few minutes and then reappear... It just won't go away. It is not helped by the fact that as I move about the house the Xperia changes it's mind about whether to use the router'so 2.4GHz or 5GHz band whereas the PC is fixed to the latter.
I know that I can tell the Xperia to 'forget' the PC but then I would have to re-establish the connectivity when I want to use it. As the setup process involves first connecting the two devices with a USB cable, this is pointless... I might just as well stay with USB.
Is this a bug with the software, or is there a switch somewhere that I can use to stop these annoying notifications? (I could not find anything in the 'App Notifications' area.)

I sort of followed what you suggested. I turned off the tablet, then connected the USB to PC, then turned on tablet and whala (?menospeakofrencho).Now my next question is how do I play the music I synced to the tablet from PC. Have version of Media Player on tablet yet there are no options for playing the SD where the music was supposed to be synced.Any suggestions, please. Really would like to use it because no MP3 yet and I have a "Click Mix" album of work out tunes with high bpm.Thank you,Debocombo.

    Hi, I'm gonna bump this question as I have the same problem.
    I have connected to the internet by broadcasting my own signal and by setting up a closed network with my ipod in the past. Today I had the internet signal connected and working and when I tried the closed network, the ipod internet stopped working even when I switched back to the open broadcasted signal from my macbook pro.
    My ipod says it's connected but it doesn't work.
    I reset the network settings on my ipod. I restarted my ipod. I even restored my ipod using the back up I saved in itunes. Still, the internet doesn't work despite the fact I get the full blue bars in the upper left corner.
    I don't get a "safari can't connect" it just keeps cycling the circle next to the blue bars and nothing happens. My other applications also say things like "update failed" or "Cannot connect to Youtube"
    Any ideas?
    Thanks

    What is the NotificationMode set in the ns_emails.xml file in ..bpel\system\services\config folder? If its ALL, then that explains the issue. It should be set to EMAIL if you are only looking for email notifications.

    Hello, my sister her macbook pro cannot connect to our wireless internet. My imac however can, so the problem has to do with her laptop. We were wondering how we could solve this problem? Thank you very much in advance!

    We did that, but it just doesn't seem to be able to connect. So basically we tried to connect to our network and insert the password, but afterwards it does nothing. Weird thing is also that the network symbol (top right of the screen) says that it has been connected, but when I go look at the system preferences --> network, it states that it has not been connected

  • Since upgrading to Mountain Lion I cannot connect to my wireless router

    Since upgrading to Mountain Lion I cannot connect to my wireless router. I have 2 wireless networks in my home. One is the primary whuch all of my devices connect to. The other is for backup only. I cannot connect to the primary with my iMac but have no trouble with any of the other devices which include iphones and ipads.phones and iPads. I can however connect to the backup without a problem. I have tried upgrading the firmware of the router as well as changing the security from WEP to WPA-2, no luck. Can anyone help?

    Try this, it's for information.
    In Finder, open the Go menu, press and hold the option  key, 'Library' will appear on the menu, click and scroll to Application Support, open the folder and scroll to 'AddressBook-v22.abcddb'.

  • I have a Power PC G4 which is running on OSX 10.5.8, it has the AirPort utility but cannot connect to the internet as my iMac can, I think I might need an AirPort Card? Is that the case or do I need something different to connect to a wireless modem?

    I have a Power PC G4 which is running on OSX 10.5.8, it has the AirPort utility but cannot connect to the internet as my iMac can, I think I might need an AirPort Card? Is that the case or do I need something different to connect to a wireless modem?

    Welcome!
    Only one variant of the PowerMac G4 could use the faster Airport Extreme Card. The rest used the original Airport card that is pretty slow.
    To get fast wireless without buying more than one thing, consider this:
    http://eshop.macsales.com/item/Edimax/EW7722IN/
    It goes in an available PCI slot
    There are USB solutions also. However, all PowerMac G4 towers had only slower USB 1.1 ports, so any USB wireless adaptor can only run at about wireless 'B" speeds (slow) unless you also install a PCI USB 2.0 adaptor card. Doing that would allow a USB wireless adaptor to run at its maximum rated speed. These items working together would accomplish that:
    USB wireless "dongle:"
    Newer Technology MAXPower 802.11n/g/b USB Adapter + Plug and play direct or with extension cradle
    USB PCI adaptor:
    http://eshop.macsales.com/Search/Search.cfm?Ntk=Primary&Ns=P_Popularity%7c1&Ne=5 000&N=7069&Ntt=USB+PCI
    Each approach has its advantages. The PCI wireless card is a one-piece solution that takes up no desk space. The USB2 card+USB2 Dongle gives you more fast ports for transferring date from other external USB devices (primarily cameras and external hard drives) at hugely faster rates than can the original ports. I have a USB 2 PCI card in my G4 tower strictly for transferring images from my digital SLR camera in a timely manner.

  • I hit Forget Network and now cannot get back onto my wireless home network. All of my other computers and iphones are fine.  How do I get the network back?  It shows in my list of networks but when I use the password and try to join it says not connected.

    See if the iPad will accept the password after you restart it. It's worth a try.
    Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    You could also try a reset as well.
    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

    I recently transferred my internet service to another state.I have not yet moved my imac, just my pc laptop. I cannot get my airport extreme wireless router to work. The green light stays lit when everything is connected but I can't connect to the internet. Any suggestions?

    I would recommend that you do the following as a minimum:
    Power-down the modem, AirPort base station, and computer(s).
    Power-up the modem; wait at least 10-15 minutes to allow it adequate time to initialize.
    Power-up the AirPort base station; wait at least 5-10 minutes. Note: The AirPort's status light may continue to flash amber after it has intialized. That is because, there may be some additional configuration items necessary, like setting up wireless security, before the overall setup is completed to get a green status.
    Power-up your computer(s).
    If the above steps do not solve the problem, start over with step 1 above, but then perform the next steps between steps 1 & 2. above.
    Disconnect the AirPort base station from the Internet broadband modem.
    While all of the devices are powered-down, perform a "factory default" reset on the base station. This will get it back to its "out-of-the-box" configuration and make setting it up much easier, especially if you use the "Assist me" process within the AirPort Utility. (ref: Resetting an AirPort Base Station or Time Capsule)
    After the base station resets, go ahead and power it back down.
    Reconnect the AirPort base station to the Internet broadband modem. For the Extreme and Time Capsule, be sure to connect the cable to the base station's WAN (circle-of-dots) port.
    Continue with step 2 in the first set of steps.
    In this basic configuration, the AirPort base station will broadcast an unsecured wireless network with a Network Name (SSID) of Apple Network NNNNNN. Network clients, connected to the base station either by wire or wireless, should now be able to access the Internet through the ISP's modem. Once Internet connectivity has been verified, you can use the AirPort Utility to configure the base station for wireless security and any other desired options. Please post back your results.

  • Cannot connect to the wireless networking

    My Toshiba Laptop was preinstalled with Windows 7 Home premium 64-bit OS, and it had been working quite well with the wireless BB. However, the wireless internet connection was on and off within recent weeks, while the other mobile devices, such as iphone, ipad, or laptop, in my household had no such problem. The wireless signal was so strong, but the error message always said 'Windows cannot connect to the wireless networking'. It seemed there was something wrong with the wireless adapter.
    I got a new TP-Link wireless adapter properly installed. Luckily, this worked; but unluckily, this worked for less than 24 hours. It was really frustrating that I, as a full-time student, depended so much on wireless networking.
    Please help!!! Harry

    Hi there
    You may want to enlighten us with:
    - What model are You using (f.ex. L300-123)
    - What BIOS version is installed?
    - What WLAN driver are You using?
    All these questions are answered in PC Diagnostics found under Toshiba app folder in the start menu.

  • Satellite Pro L300-1B9 cannot connect to my Wireless router

    Hi!
    I have activated the wireless nw on SAT L300 PRO 1B9 - but with many fight...
    First I needed to find the switch to enable (I never though that it have... :-) ).
    Then I needed to deinstall Atheros in Windows, and set the flags on (enable) in the Windows driver.
    But in both Linux and Windows I couldn't connect to my Wireless router.
    My luck was that some of my neightbours have security-disabled, open wireless network, what I could map to test.
    The test was succecfully with that network, but my wireless router was unreachable.
    From other machine I could reach it.
    The result was:
    If I set the router to broadcast the SSID, both OSs (Ubuntu + Windows) can use wireless network.
    But if I disable the broadcasting (to protect my router), the network driver cannot use my router, it does not matter I pre-set the SSID...
    A router is WRT54G, and it is working with other computers if I hide the SSID, but with SAT L300 Pro cannot connect (with this option).
    Do anybody knows why? What I need to do to I could hide the SSID from the bad guys?
    Thanks for any help!
    Regards:
    dd

    I dont know which Windows OS do you use but if you use original Vista, I think, right WLAN driver is part of the package. So WLAN card must be installed properly.
    It is not easy to say what is wrong there but if the notebook can see and detect your WLAN network on notebooks side everything must be OK. Try to restart your router and check all settings.
    In my opinion there is some problem with WLAN settings.

  • Wireless LAN cannot connect with the wireless router with Windows 8.1

    Hi,
    I currently have a Lenovo V570 laptop with Windows 8.1 running on it. I cannot seem to stay connected to a wireless wifi connection for more than 10 minutes without it going "limited" and a yellow caution exclamation icon hovering over my connected wifi icon.
    When it goes limited, I cannot access the internet whatsoever and it's growing increasingly frustrating. I used to have success by disconnected and reconnecting which seemed to temporarily solve the issue, but now even that is not working. 
    I did not have this issue (I don't believe so) when I first installed Windows 8 on this laptop a few years ago. This is an issue I've been dealing with for over a year now and only within the past 4-6 months has it been really bad.
    I found this support page here which provides solutions for my problem but after attempting all of them, unfortunately none of them worked. The only time I experience no issues is when I directly connect an ethernet cord from my laptop to the router.
    The wireless problem exists for all wifi connections, whether it be my university wifi, home wifi, local, etc.
    Can anybody please help me out? I'd be more than happy to provide additional info to get this problem fixed once and for all.

  • IPhone connected to Apple Wireless Extreme but cannot access Internet

    I have the Apple Wireless Extreme that I use to connect my MacBook Pro online, and for some reason the iPhone cannot access the Internet. I can connect to the base station, but can't go online - it's getting an IP address and I can see the DNS server addresses. I have tried no security, WEP, WPA and WPA 2 with no luck. I have to resort to connecting to someone elses wireless network so I can go online with the iPhone.
    Any ideas?

    I have an Airport Extreme base station using WPA2 Personal encryption for my wireless network without MAC filtering, and I connect with my network with no problems.
    How many characters is your password when using WPA2 Personal encryption?
    I would also try resetting your wireless network.
    Power your MB and your iPhone off.
    Power your Airport Extreme Base Station off, and then your modem.
    Wait several minutes and then reverse the process.
    Power your modem on allowing it to completely reset and connect.
    Power your Airport Extreme Base Station on, allowing it to reset with the modem.
    Power your iPhone on and try connecting to your wireless network.

  • Cannot connect Airport express wireless

    Hello, cannot connect airport express wireless to linksys router.  Connected now with ethernet  cable but cannot figure wireless connection. My laptop cannot find the express while preforming setup scan, yet I'm connected to it.  I can connect with my iphone but not wirelessly. Any suggestions?

    ....I was then told over the phone that airport express will not connect to third party routers.
    This is NOT correct.
    The AirPort Express will connect to a wireless network if you know the following:
    1) The name of the wireless network
    2) The exact setting for wireless security that the network is using
    3) The wireless network password
    Most users know 1) and 3), but very few know the exact type of wireless security settings that their wireless router is using. The Express will not connect to the wireless network unless it receives all of the information listed above.
    So...we will assume that you know the name of the wireless network and the password for the network.
    Do you know the exact type of wireless security setting that your wireless router is using?  If not, the Express will not connect.
    You may need to check the setup of your wireless router....or if the router was supplied to you by an Internet Service Provider, they may be able to tell you what type of wireless security setting is being used.
    Post back when you have this info and we will proceed. There are still no guarantees that the Express will connect....but at least there may be a chance.
