I just saw your post and I resolved this on mine for my wired connection. I'm willing to bet that the issue is the same for wireless. Here's what I found.
Issue:
During the installation, iTunes installs some network components related to mobile device support over ethernet(Apple Mobile Device Ethernet Service - netaapl.inf). At the same time, according the logs, the install process removed OEM18.inf. This almost exactly coincided with the time that I saw the network connection die (preceded it by a few seconds).
Basically, iTunes appears to be removing a required network component.
Resolution:
After installing iTunes and the network connection breaking, remove the network device from Device Manager and allow Windows to reinstall it automatically.
The following instructions are for Windows 7, but they are close enough to follow for other versions of Windows.
1. Click the Start button (Jewel in Vista and Win7).
2. Right-click Computer and click Manage in the menu that appears (type your password or click Yes if prompted).
3. On the left side of hte Computer Management window, click Device Manager.
4. Click the arrow (or plus sign) next to Network Adapters to expand that section.
5. Right-click your network adapter and click Uninstall in the menu that appears.
6. Click OK.
7. Reboot.
Windows should automatically detect and reinstall your network device on boot.

    Hello CraigNicholson
    You would need to sync with iTunes to get that process to work for you. Check out the article below for more information on how to resolve that issue to get the proper token to use Push Notifications again.

  • Problems with Installing iTunes and wireless network connection

    Every time I attempt to install iTunes it completely kicks the internet off and an error comes up that the wireless network adapter to not connect or is not detected. My internet service is connected to a router which I receive wirelessly to my laptop. I do not understand why it is happening and to get the internet to work again I needed to do a system restore. Any ideas why this is happening. Also when iTunes was installed it came up correctly, it would just not connect to the net. I have had a previous version on my old laptop but since purchasing this new laptop I am having such difficulty. On another note, if this problem can be resolved, once iTunes is working is there a way to get the songs from my old computer onto the new? Thanks for the help in advance!

  • Zen Touch: problem with touch pad and formatt

    Hi guys!
    I have a Zen Touch 20gb but I'm experiencing big problems with my touch pad: it really doesn't work fine, precision is almost none, to poit the desired voice in any menu I have to work hard. If the menu is longer it is almost impossible to navigate it with precision. I can't move of a single position, it jumps at least two... Is it a common problem or should I take it to be checked up?
    2nd problem:
    I was trying to format the player's HD. Instructions said press play botton and contemporarly reset hole.
    But nothing happens. When I release the system reboots.
    Any idea?
    Thanx!
    Gp

    Please be patient with the touch pad. Reading these boards, I think a lot of people are not really understanding how the touch pad works and assuming it's defecti've and returning the Touch. First, set the sensitivity to where it's best for you. If you can't move only one line at a time, you may have it set too sensiti've. Second, use your index finger, not your thumb. Then, practice moving around. For me, it was really easy to move rapidly through the choices or to move just one line at a time. But moving at medium speed always tripped me up, until I figured out the technique of repeatedly stroking the touch pad through the slow zone to move several lines at a time, just like you were using a scroll wheel.

  • Boot problems with IDE HD and SATA HD on K7N2-Delta L

    I'll get right to the point.
    I have an PCI SATA Controller Card in my system (using a K7N2 Delta-L motherboard, BIOS v5.7 with an Athlon XP 2800+ and Corsair ValueSelect 512MB DDR400 RAM on a single stick).  My system works fine in it's original configuration of drives (CD-RW drive only drive on IDE bus, and SATA drive only hard drive).  However, upon installing my IDE hard drive from my old computer, the system will no longer boot right.  I am connecting the other IDE HD as Slave on the CD-RW's bus, as I'm reserving the second bus for bigger and better things such as a DVD burner, and speed isn't too important for this hard drive as it's just my MP3/data I don't need in a hurry drive.
    In the current configuration, all three drives are detected properly (CD-RW and HD detected on the IDE detection screen, and the SATA drive detected on the SATA card's detection screen).  However, after the SATA detection screen, the system just stops.  The cursor is still blinking, but nothing comes up.
    Both hard drives are Western Digitals (IDE is a ATA100 Western Digital 60GB at 5400 RPM, and the SATA is a Western Digital 36.7GB at 10,000 RPM), and the CD-RW is a HP CD-Writer 9100.  I have Windows XP installed on both hard drives (first partition of the IDE, which is divided into two), but considering the system doesn't even attempt to boot I don't think that's an issue.  I've gone through and tried enabling and disabling "Boot Other Device", but still no love.  My boot order is set to Floppy, CD-ROM, and SCSI, which works fine when the SATA drive is in there.
    Any idea what's up?  I can provide more information upon request, as I'm sure there's something I forgot to mention that's important.
    Thanks.

    Take a look at this link, https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?threadid=71384, I think you both have the same problem. It seems that a sata drive doesn't like having an ide drive in the system that has an active partition.
    Do like Wonkanoby suggest, reformat the ide hard drive and make sure that it's not set to be the active partition in the system. Boot with a 98 boot floppy if you have to so you can format the ide drive to fat32, once you can boot up using the sata drive you can use xp disk manager to convert the ide drive to ntfs.

  • Problems with track pad and osx installation disc on macbok.

    Okay so I am having two separate problems with my macbook.
    First, the track pad, or the button beneath it, is pretty much completely out of commission. When I try and use it, the computer acts as if I am holding down the button all the time. Example, when I drag it across the desktop, the "click-and-drag" square starts appearing next to the cursor or when move the cursor on an icon, it tries to click and drag that. The only way that I can fix it thus far is to hook up my wireless mouse. Hoping someone else has a better solution so that I can continue to use the notebook on the go without having to bring the mouse. Note: the button does not appear to be depressed in anyway.
    Second problem is happening when I attempt to reboot the computer with the OS X Leopard disk in for a re-installation. When the gray start-up screen appears, before the gray apple comes on the middle of the screen, a folder icon with a question mark on it appears for a split second and then turns into the normal apple icon after which my OSX disk is spit out of the drive and the computer boots straight to the desktop. I have attempted holding down the control button, the option button, and starting the process while the computer is still turned on and then just restarting it, the disc is ejected upon restart every time. I have reinstalled the OS with this disk once before and it has worked fine and other disks seem to be working fine in the drive, so I am at a lost here.
    I know that was a lot of info but if anyone out there can help me out with either one of these problems it would be much appreciated.
    Thanks.

    exactly the same issu with the track pad here.
    I v tried to use it without the battery but the problem persist.
    If I use an USB mouse i can move it arnd but wen I click or double click nothing happen...so is useless.Same problem with the Blur Tooth wireless mouse.
    The issue appear several months ago...after a couple of weeks went away, and now is back again. I try the routine manteinance but nothing solved the issue.
    Any suggestion? I have some urgent work to do ...I will try tomorrow to bring it in an apple store but I can't leave it with them ..
    Thanx in advance

  • Connect problem with db link and scheduler_jobs on 10.2.0.4.0

    hello guys
    i have got this problem, i hope someone can help me to understand and solve it.
    I have a pl/sql procedure where is referenced a table on a db_link. I own all the grants needed, and if i recall it in an anonymous block, it seems to work.
    i.e
    create or replace procedure routine_1 is
    v_app varchar2(1);
    begin
    select 'x'
    into v_app
    from other_user.some_table@my_db_link
    where rownum<2;
    end routine_1;
    Instead, while recalling it from a job scheduled with dba_scheduler package, with the same user, while opening the cursor where the db link table is referenced, i got a connect error:
    ORA-01017: invalid username/password; logon denied
    ORA-02063: preceding line from xxxxxx (where xxxxxx is the db link)
    i would like to understand where i am mistaking. I already checked the user for the connection in the scheduled job and is the same of the anonymous block call.
    thanks in advance
    Claudio

    hello dracis
    thanks for the new answer.
    i have not access to metalink. Anyway, oracle version is 10g not 11.
    Anyway, about dbms_job package (Scheduler is the newer version of dbms_job), i found a phrase on a site saying this:
    "Jobs that reference database links will fail if the database link is not fully qualified with the username and password. This is another subtle consequence of the execution environment of jobs."
    Probably the cause is that the db link, to work, must be owned by the same user that owns the procedure where is referenced. In this way we hope ownername and password are in some way accessible.
    We are trying to check this solution, but we have to wait for some grants.

  • Why won't Apple fix the wifi connectivity problem with the iMac and new OS instead of just havin us go through hours of useless mock fixes!

    I have spent hours with apple care about this problem with wifi connectivity.  According to all the posts I'm not alone.  I love my new IMAC
    but i'll be glad to go back to my PC just so I can get my email without all the headaches.  It seems that Apple has lost interest in
    the IMAC and all of the problems associated with the new OS. 

    Keep in mind that ASC is where people go to get help, so yes, you are seeing reports of people who are having WiFi connection issues. But while it might seem like there are lots of people having trouble, given the sheer number of iMacs in use, it is a very small number. Also keep in mind that WiFi isn't totally under Apple's control. There are dozens of WiFi routers. Even worse, the manufacturers of WiFi routers often release firmware upgrades to fix flaws without ever informing the consumer. And just to add to the confusion, while WiFi 801.2 n routers have been sold for several years, for most of that time there was no agreed upon standard!
    So if you'd like help, first, what router do you have and have you checked the vendor site to see that it has the latest firmware?

  • Problems with mail, messags, and social network accounts

    Hi,
    first of all, sorry for my bad English.
    I would like to know if there is a maximum limit of accounts (email, social network, etc. etc.) that OS10 can handle.
    On my Passport (OS10 Version 10.3.0.675) I have the following:
    - 1 BBM
    - 1 WhatsApp
    - 1 Facebook
    - 12 Mail
    Now, when I try to insert another account (for example mail or Twitter), I recived the following error message: 
    "The maxximum accounts has been reached".
    Is that right?
    With the Z10 and the Q10, if I remember correctly, I did not have this problem.
    I need to add more email accounts, someone can help me?
    Thank you all.
    I'M NOT LAZY,
    I JUST DON'T GIVE NOTHING!

    Let me see what I can find out and I'll get back to you when I know more! Thanks

  • Connection problems with PALM TX and WRT160N router

    I purchased a WRT160N wireless router. My computers connected with no problems, but when I attempted to connect my Palm TX I ran into a bunch of problems. At first the Palm would not even find the network. I eventually was able to configure the router so that the Palm can now find the network, but it still will not connect. I have removed the security from the network and rebooted both with no luck. I read that I am supposed to set the type to b/g mixed, frequency to 40 mghz, the wide channel to 6 and the other channel to 8. I was able to set the b/g mixed, the frequency to 20, the wide channel defaults to 3 (I cannot change this) and the other channel to 8. Any ideas?

    Changing Router to b/g Mixed fixed the problem.
    I had the same trouble. I've been trying to connect my Palm TX to my brand new Linksys WRT160N for a day and a half. Tried EVERYTHING....SSID Broadcast on/off, WEP, WPA, Security all off, nothing helped. I just switched the router settings to B/G Mixed. The TX connected immediately.
    B/G will be fine, even though the router's optimum performance is N. My broadband operates at 25Mbs. 802.11g has a transfer rate of up to 54Mbs where N is well over 100. "G" will easily keep up with my internet's best speed. And I can still Wi-Fi with my TX at 802.11b (11Mbs).
    I can temporarily switch to "N" if I ever want to transfer huge amounts of data between my "N" Laptop and my Desktop PC.

  • Problems with SRW224G4 switch and Bridged Network Cards

    Hello,
    We have recently installed a SRW224G4 switch and have discovered that when we plug our DELL PowerEdge 2900 server into the switch, the switch loses all network connectivity and all of the LED's on the switch start flashing.
    The server works perfectly well plugged into another switch, but as soon as we introduce the SRW224G4 into the network, either with the server plugged into that switch or any other, the problem re-occurs.
    The only way we found we could eliminate this issue was if we disabled the Bridged Network connection on the two network cards on the server. If we do that, everything is fine, except the network performance of the server has dropped significantly.
    The server is plugged into the 1GB ports on the switch, although we tried it on the 100MB ports and received the same problems. The switch reports that the ports are running at full-duplex.
    Has anyone noticed this behavior before, and more importantly been able to rectify it.
    Thanks in advance for your assistance,
    Paul

    I had this problem as well with any Linksys 2024 or rackmountable switch..  The trick is, you need to use the network cards management software to "team" or bridged the 2 NIC's otherwise the switch detects a loop and the whole thing locks up. So lame...  Windows built in bridge mode stinks dont use it.  When you use the Intel management software or Dell or HP's NIc management software you have the option to actually choose "redundant mode" where you can pick a Nic to be the primary, or you can choose Load Balancing where you can essentially double your throughput by joining the 2 nics.
    In Windows 2008 Server, you actually do this by going to the Properties on the NIC in  Device Manger.  the software controls are now built right into the driver.  pretty neat.  2003 you can check Device Manager the same way but not sure if it's the same as 2008, you might need to run the actual NIC management app.
    Hope this helps

  • WRV200 - Problems with VPN Client and Internal network access

    I have a WRV200 router and want to access the internal (Private Network) connected on the inside. I have successfully conected to the router with the Linksys VPN Client, but it does not appear to allow access to the internal network.
    How do I enable NAT Transversal or Passthru? I have already selected all of the PPTP, L2TP and IPSEC Pass Through.
    Has anyone gotten this to work?

    I have actually gotten this to work. Issues surround this include the ability to get to the VPN if the main DNS is down (it does not fail over to the next DNS in the list).
    If you unselect all of the boxes in the firewall General configuration, you can connect, but if you need to have all of this unchecked, what's the sense of having it?
    Anyway, you can use the DoS Prevention, this is not interfering.

  • Connection problems with FCE HD and a Canon XL1

    I just can not get the system to see the camera so I can capture. I have an external Firewire drive as my scratch disc. Any advice? Thanks!

    Ian & Tom, First of all thanks for your ideas and quick replies, I really appreciate it.
    I'm using a (Belkin) FW hub but have re-routed things so the camera is going directly to one of the computer's two FW ports. Have tried all suggestions provided in your posts but the best I'm able to get is a message that reads, "Unable to initialize video deck. You may still use Capture Now." When I go to capture mode, however, no controls are usable and it says, "not communicating."
    Tom, I went to System Profiler and am not seeing the Canon. My computer has two FW ports and I'm only seeing the hub (and not the camera plugged into the other port). What's strange is that the hub is showing an "unknown device" but there's not an unaccounted for device plugged into the hub. I've tried the camera in both of the computer's FW ports to no avail. I'm guessing that's the weak link.
    Regarding full system info...
    - PowerMac G4, dual 1.27 GHz PowerPC
    - OS X 10.4.10
    - FCE HD 3.5.1
    - EZ Quest external FW drive
    - Canon XL1 (but my material was shot with a Panasonic DVX 100A, I'm just using the older Canon to capture for editing to save wear on the Panasonic's playback deck -- but the Panasonic connects just fine)
    Any other info needed? You guys totally rock for trying to help me with this -- good karma!
