Connection Time being displayed next to the wifi icon
i hate it.....and do not need to know how long im connected to a router. but i can not find anywhere how to turn this off. I do not know if this is something caused by the macbook pro or TimeCapsul...as i just bought both on the same day last week.
screengrab of the annoyance:

It shows when you are connected using PPPoE. Click on the Airport Icon in the menu bar then hold your mouse over your Airport connection. A submenu should pop up. There will be a check mark next to "Show time connected." Select that line it to toggle the setting off.

Why is there a small blue dot next to the wifi icon in my menu bar?
I just noticed today the small blue dot to the bottom right of the wifi icon in my menu bar. It was not there since I bought the macbook a couple of days ago. Just noticed it a couple of hours ago. Does anybody know what it means? Everything works fine with the wifi connection and the computer in general.
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
That's part of your wallpaper, so don't worry about it. Your menu bar is translucent, so it's normal that you can see part of the wallpaper on the menu bar -

How do i fix my wifi if it connects and the bars are blue but no check sign appears next to the wifi name and does not connect to the internet???
Did you already try to reset the iPod by holding the sleep and home button for about 10sec, until the Apple logo comes back again? You will not lose data.
If this does not work, try to reset the network settings in Settings/General/Reset. After that you'll have to put in the passwords for all known networks again.

Any instance of time being displayed when using Firefox show the time off by +5 hours. I am in Phila so use EST. Every other setting is correct in computer. For example time call log displayed from Comcast and every page footer shows time +5 hours. I have not found anything helpful in searching the web. I always check after each upgrade to Firefox but problem persists.
Cor-el... The issue was in the autoexec.bat file. I did have the TZ set there. Removed and all is well.
Thanks Much.

So I have been using my iPad for a few months now and I recently noticed that the time display next to the playlist name in the music app that is supposed to display the total song count and time of a playlist is way off. I have a 25 song playlist that is around 2 hours on my computer appears as 2003 minutes on my iPad. It's a smart playlist limited to 25 songs if that makes any difference. Is this happening to anyone else? Any help would be appreciated!
Greetings,
First make an iCal backup, File > Export > Archive.
Remove the following to the trash and restart your computer:
Home > Library > Caches
Home > Library > Calendars > Calendar Cache, Cache, Cache 1, 2, 3, etc. (Do not remove Sync Cache or Theme Cache)
Home > Library > Preferences > com.apple.ical (There may be more than one of these. Remove them all.)
__NOTE: Removing these files will remove any shared (CalDAV) calendars you may have access to. You will have to re-add those calendars to iCal > Preferences > Accounts.
Once the computer is back up and running open iCal and test.
Hope that helps. -
IPad Fails to connect to wifi, but shows the wifi icon
My company just installed a wireless network in our building. I was very excited because I can finally use my iPad in meetings and ditch the IBM laptop. However, it does not want to connect to the wireless network. Let me try to explain what happens.
BTW,
1. It is a new network so all the routers have the most up to date firmware.
2. I have tried to connect with my iPad2 and iPad both without success. The iPad was recently wiped clean and set up for my son.
3. I can connect to my home network, my sprint mifi card, and other networks (hotels, starbucks) with no problem.
4. Laptops can connect with out issue to the network.
5. Others have been able to connect their iPhone to the network.
6. One other person could not connect their iPod Touch to the network. He gets the same response that I do. I don't know anyone else with an iPad that works in my building. However see item two above.
7. It is using WPA security.
8. I have reset network settings numerous times on both iPads and rebooted both iPads numerous times.
9. I am able to connect to another wifi network in our building. Both networks use the same security and password.
This is what happens:
1. Go to Settings -> Wi-Fi and choose my companies wireless network.
2. It asks for the password and I type it in (Trust me I am typing it in correctly. I have done it about a hundred times now.)
3. Recieve the message "Unable to join the network," I hit Dismiss and Cancel.
4. I get the Checkmark next to the wireless network I just tried to join. If you click the blue arrow I get an IP address, but NO "Forget This Network" Option. I also have the wifi icon next to the word iPad in the upper left corner of the screen. It will also not load any Safari pages. Safari states "Safari cannot open the page because it is not connected to the internet."
I have also tried:
1. Go to Settings -> Wi-Fi and choose "Other."
2. Type in the SSID name and choose WPA, Type the password.
3. Hit "Join" & get the message "Could not find the network"
4. I hit Dismiss and Cancel.
5. I get the Checkmark next to the wireless network I just tried to join. If you click the blue arrow I get an IP address, but NO "Forget This Network" Option. I also have the wifi icon next to the word iPad in the upper left corner of the screen. It will also not load any Safari pages. Safari states "Safari cannot open the page because it is not connected to the internet."
Please help. I have read many articles on this forum and tried everything without success.If you are getting a 169... IP, then you are not connected. That is a self-assigned IP that the iPad is giving itself because the router is not giving it one.
Is it possible that you are not selecting the correct WPA security protocol for your network? -
SMB connection time not displayed
Dunno if this goes under this topic or if there's one more suited to Windows questions, but here goes:
I'm running 10.4.6 Server on an XServe, mostly for Windows XP clients. I've set up Windows Services and all clients access a few folders shared on the XServe. In Server Admin, I can see a list of all connected clients, and the connection graphs/logs update properly, but under 'Time' in the list of clients, they all say '00:00', even though most of them have been on for hours. Is there a way of forcing this to update, or a simple reason why it's not displaying the connection time? Windows 2003 had much more in the way of statistics about open connections, which did come in quite handy at times.It shows when you are connected using PPPoE. Click on the Airport Icon in the menu bar then hold your mouse over your Airport connection. A submenu should pop up. There will be a check mark next to "Show time connected." Select that line it to toggle the setting off.

TS1398 Why does my iPad2 not display the WiFi icon?
Why does my iPad2 not display the WiFi icon? I have implemented ALL of the troubleshooting tips, but my WiFi icon is still missing, and it will NOT recognize the internet connection that I know to work on my computer and iPhone.
Try the following:
1. Reset the AirPlay devices
2. Reboot the router
3. Reboot the iPad
Note: The AirPlay icon is now in the Control Center -
hi
Since about 2 weeks ago for no apparent reason, the internet on my iPad suddenly stopped working (when I open Safari, it says: "Safari cannot open the page because it is not connected to the Internet"), even though the Wifi icon in the top left corner still shows full signal. However, I noticed when I went into Wifi settings (Settings>Wifi) that there is no checkmark next to my network name (only the spinning circle icon, as if it's trying to process something). This only happens at home (I can browse the internet while connected to Wifi at university). My other Apple devices (MacBook Pro and iPhone 4S) work perfectly fine at home.
I've tried resetting my router, restarting my iPad, resetting Network Settings on my iPad, and tried following Hynes' instructions on this thread:https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2453187?start=15&tstart=0, but nothing has worked so far (although I have to admit that I found the instructions on that thread somewhat confusing, so there is a chance that I accidentally did not follow them properly).
Could someone please help? It'd be VERY much appreciated. -
My macbook air will not connect to the internet. There is an exclamation point in the wifi icon and when i go into preferences i see that it is setting its own IP address. I have a macbookpro that is able to connect with no issue. HELP
Reset the TC to factory and start again.
Use all SMB type names for wireless and base station.. Not apple type names.. this is more important since Mavericks.
I also recommend different names for the different bands.
So for example.
TC name.. TCgenx (I use whatever the generation number is for the x.. eg TCgen4 or latest one TCgen5)
WIreless name.. TC24ghz for 2.4ghz
TC5ghz for 5ghz
You can also set the channel manually.
If you still have issues.. start with no security and then if it fails to connect there is something seriously wrong with the laptop. Did you upgrade install Mavericks?? That can lead to driver issues.. I would recommend a clean install. -

I would really like to find a means and way to save them other than on the phone itself. I've done searches for various apps yet I'm not finding what I think I would need. It appears Apple does not sync the texts between the iphone and my MacBook Pro.
Try the computer apps PhoneView (Mac) or TouchCopy (Mac & PC):
