Have to re-enter WEP settings after every restart.

Every time I restart my computer I have to re-enter SSID and WEP key. Does anyone know how to fix it so that the settings will be remembered when the system restarts?
Its connecting to a Netgear access point with 128bit WEP, and SSID broadcast turned off.

Acouple of things to try, but like Tim says, WEP isn't useful...
Enter your network name and password in the Network System Prefs. Go to "Show" menu and choose Airport.
Choose to connect to specific network. Enter Network name (even if SSID broadcast is diabled) For password entered your WEP passphrase (the #1 Key goes here)
Look for the adding-to-keychain option and check it.
Or in Keychain Access, click on Passwords, double click on the one that's for that network, check Show Password... if that's not right correct it.
If it doesn't exist... choose File->New Password Item…
Under Name, Type "Airport Network" with no quotes.
Under Account, enter the SSID, whether it's broadcast or not.
In Password, input the password, mine is hex, so it's preceded with $.
When these are done, click Add.
Then, select the item from the list, and click the Access Control tab. Add /System/Library/CoreServices/SystemUIserver and /Applications/Internet Connect
Then try connecting via Internet Connect.

  • Same bugs occuring after every restart

    I'm using webOS 2.1.2 on an HP Veer 4G.  Every time I restart the phone, the following bugs happen:
    1) The Voice Dial shortcut that I put on the taskbar (wave) has been removed; also, the Voice Dial shortcut that I had moved to a custom location in the Applications panel is lost and the icon is moved to the last spot.  Every time, I have to move it back to where I want it in the Applications panel and then re-add it to the taskbar (wave) area.
    2) Even though I've already gone through the entire tutorial in hopes that it would never bother me again, a Gestures Tutorial notification comes up every single time the phone starts up.  I would just like to delete this application, if possible, but I don't see a way to do it like I can with custom apps.
    Has anyone else experienced these or similar issues after a restart and know of any solutions or work-arounds?  Also, is there an official place that I can report bugs to Palm/HP?  Thanks!

    Thetreoguy:
    Thanks for the reply!  I'll look forward to an update for the Voice Dial app soon.
    Regarding the Gesture Tutorial, you are correct that it did not finish the first time I used it.  The tutorial actually locked up on me and I had to shut it down.  I've followed it through to completion a couple of times since then, but it still pops up after every restart.
    What exactly will happen if I go to Reset Options and Erase apps and data?  Will it erase my personal data that I've spent a long time adding, or just the default apps?  Once it erases the apps, how do I get them back (with the exception of the Gesture Tutorial, of course)?  If it erases all my personal data too, is there a way to back them up and copy them back to the phone and still preserve all contact information and the link to the contact photos I've added?
    Thanks again for your help.

  • 8 fonts in the trash after every restart!

    Hi.
    Snow Leopard 10.6.1 is working great but I am finding 8 fonts in the trash after every restart!
    ArialHB, Corsiva, Nadeem, NewPeninimMTBoldInclined, Baghdad, MshtakanRegular, NewPeninimMT, NewPeninimMTInclined.
    This can't be good. Does anybody know what that means and what to do?
    I see a lot of people have font-problems.
    W.W.

    Your choice - Back them up to CD-R if you've a mind, but I'd pull the trigger, finish them off and get rid of them. They've ended up there for a reason.
    Also, don't hesisate to perform wholesale deletion of old and/or little used fonts - be skeptical of anything that has come in from MS Office 2008, including fonts related to an Equation Editor installation.
    Good luck going forward.

  • Sticky Keys keeps turning off after every restart

    the Sticky Keys option in the universal access prefs pane keeps turning off after every restart. how can i fix this?

    It seems to be a common problem in the OS that when you restarts some of the settings get reset. For me it happens with the screeen dimming before sleep and the double click using 2 fingers and maybe others that I don't know about. I am hoping that its fixed in 10.4.7 which should be out within a week or so.

  • Server stucks at Applying Computer Settings after every reboot

    Hello!
    On one of our sites containing around 15 servers, whenever a terminal server is rebooted, it gets stuck on Applying Computer Settings for around 15 minutes. If it is un-joined from the domain then no issue. Moreover, once it is done with this delay, no time
    delay is observed in user login. But after every reboot, 15 - 20 mins delay is always observed. Domain is the same at other sites and no issue is being observed else where.

  • 2 fonts in my trash after every restart

    Hello forum,
    I've been pestered by a strange buggy sitch for weeks now, and I cannot find a solution. I looked 50 pages deep into the threads regarding the FINDER, no answers. There were a few threads on Trash issues, none close to what I'm experiencing. Although not a "mission critical" problem, it's mostly an annoyance which, to me, hints of something more serious or potentially bad.
    Every time I restart - either when restarting after a BootCamp session BACK to Leopard - or when simply restarting Leopard for what ever reason - I always have two fonts in my trash can, in a "Recovered Files" folder. They delete without trouble or fuss...
    One of the two fonts is always " ヒラギノ角ゴ ProN W3.otf " and the other is "AppleGothic.ttf " .
    Once or twice the second font was Waldorf, Adobe Garamond, Apple Garammond, whatever... This suggests to me it has little to do with the font(s) itself.
    Of note; none of these fonts were being actively used by an application I was working in (i.e. Adobe InDesign, Illustrator, Photoshop, Mail, Safari, etc.) Of course, they are in use by the system - due to the nature that they are indeed "loaded" into the OS.
    In terms of what I've done to try and fix this myself, I've done the following:
    • I occasionally run AppleJack
    • I've used Apple's *Font Book* to verify all fonts and check for duplicate fonts - all dupes are turned-off.
    • I've deleted most every non-US English font typeface the system had, especially any/all of the Asian dialect fonts
    Can anyone suggest a solution? Thank you in advance - I love these forums, they are always most helpful!

    Latest developments:
    The problem seems to have been corrected - that's the good news. The bad? I'm not sure what exactly fixed it; this is what I did:
    I ran CHKDSK from within BootCamp. Everything checked-out just fine. Of note, XP crashed from a "stable" desktop after I changed the security settings on a JPG file. I know there isn't a correlation at all here - that JPG file didn't exist when this problem began occurring weeks ago.
    I think the fix was deleting some font files - not from within Font Book - but directly from the user font directory; path and fonts as follows:
    Mac HD > Users > UserName > Library > Fonts >
    the following four fonts were deleted:
    MS Gothic.ttf
    MS Mincho.ttf
    MS PGothic.ttf
    MS PMincho.ttf
    After several restarts - from into and out BootCamp AND into and out of a few other user accounts, returning to my main login account (running as Admin) the "Recovered Files" folder did NOT appear in the trash, of course, neither did any fonts.
    Lastly, I ran OnyX and deleted (fully) the trash - it found a few items from other user accounts, deleted all of that garbage (what ever it was) before deleting the aforementioned fonts.
    In retrospect, I suspect the origin my have been simply a corrupted font such that FontBook didn't catch the problematic font. It subsequently corrupted one or more of my custom font lists from within FontBook. I trashed those custom lists the other night, but the problem persisted...
    So - cumulatively, something did the trick.
    Case closed for now.

  • FontBook does not keep settings after computer restart

    I have thousands of fonts on my HD folder, and a standards set of System and Library fonts. Any time I disactivate and acivate certain font families, my FontBook keeps these settings (for activation and disactivation) ONLY UNTILL next computer restart cycle.
    After restart, when I load my FontBook application to check my fonts settings (for to make the fonts I set previously working again), Fontbook starts activating all my thousands fonts in my custom library, taking munites of waiting for a spinning wheel. I also do not see (off) signs for fonts diactivated during previous session. I see lots of duplicate font warning because Font Book is auto-activate all.
    Consiquently, I have to reppeat all the process of activation/disactivation and to help my computer working with less fonts load and resolve duplicates.
    So, why Font Book does not keep setting for fonts activation/disactivation in a custom library after computer restart?

  • Can't login to Mac Pro after every restart

    Hi all,
    For 5 days I've not been able to log into my computer at work after its been restarted/gone to sleep. The IT guys have had to do all kinds of stuff to get it working again. And every time we think it's fixed, I've come in the next morning and have the same problem, can't login.
    I've eliminated that its my login details as I was able to login on another machine just fine. And others can't login  to my computer, so it's obviously an issue with my machine/OS.
    Does anyone have any ideas of why this would keep happening? It's as if something keeps resetting after each restart that then won't allow anyone else to login. This is all I can think of, but honestly have no idea. Any suggestions or help would be greatly appreciated as its really frustrating and putting me very behind on my work. Thank you!
    Btw, it's a Mac Pro duel quad core, 16GB ram, OS 10.6.7 I believe.
    Also, the admin and root can login, just not any other accounts. So the computer can be accessed, but not thru my or any other accounts on the network.

    Hey there.
    Well, I figured out what is causing my problem. It's Mobile accounts. I started fresh with a new install and a standard Active Directory account (not Mobile). I authenticated 20+ times. Rebooted at least 10 times. Everything worked great. Then I decided to create the Mobile account. That's when everything broke again. My Active Directory account was getting locked after one accurate attempt to authenticate. When IT unlocked it I could go one step further but then would lock me out the next time I tried to authenticate. I've replicated this twice.
    So for me, it's clearly a Mobile account problem. Which is bad because half of the Macs under my care are notebooks.
    Please let me know what you find out on your end.
    Thanks,
    Adam

  • Server file system is growing after every restart of weblogic - OBIEE 11g

    Hi,
    We do a backup of the our BI production server every night (OBIEE 11.1.1.6.2 BI1)
    The process we follow is:
    1. Stop BI Services
    2. Weblogic (incluedes Node Manager, Weblogic and others)
    After every stop of weblogic, there is a file get created under WLS_Home/instances/instance1 and the file is like core.xxxxx ( e.g. core_31176, core_19440).
    My questions regarding these files are:
    1. What is the use of these files?
    2. Can I delete them (Depends on the answer of the above question)?
    3. Is it possible to control not to create these files (if they are not useful)?
    Thanks in advance.

    It sounds like it is safe to remove those file's unless you need to debug any weblogic issues.

  • README file opens after every restart??

    The hard drive in my iMac died and Apple replaced it under warranty. The new drive was loaded with OS X 10.6. I decided to migrate my user files, applications, settings from my cloned backup (SuperDuper) on my external drive rather than simply copying the backup using SD. I thought this might maintain a more pristine newly installed system. Everything seems to work well except for one aggravating phenomenon. After each restart I get an opened TextEdit "README" document that reads in part: "This README file is copied into the direcgory for GCC-only header files when fixincludes is run by the makefile for GCC.
    Many of the files in this directory were automatically edited from the standard system header files by the fixincludes process............"
    Why am I getting this message with startups and more importantly how do I fix this so the message does not appear?
    Thanks.
    John

    Neil,
    Thanks for the help. I did find an entry for TextEdit in the User Login Items section. I don't know why or how it got there. I suppose it had something to do with using Migration Assistant to move files.

  • Have to check & repair disk permissions on every restart

    Can anyone explain why I have to check &amp; repair disk permissions every time I have to restart my MacBook Pro.  When I do the check I get various messages eg 'Library should be '0',  is '80'. And other variations for Library.

    I'd do one/more of a few things.
    First, (and not only good for this exercise), I'd back up to a Super Duper or Carbon Copy Cloner clone - on an external disc, and/or use Time Machine.
    Next step, boot in Safe mode and see how things are.
    Next, create another account with similar permissions to the one you are using now. If the problem persists in this account also it is system wide.
    Next boot from the clone you made and see what gives..........
