Have you continuously turn off/on airport..why!!?

I have an 15in Macbook Pro (before the SD card slot) and a linksys router at my house.
My PC that's connected directly to the router works fine on the net. My HP laptop connects wirelessly and works fine on the net. But my macbook pro hangs constantly! Like...every 5 mins I have to turn of the airport card, turn it back on and then the net will go through again. Sometimes, it wont do it for hours, but most of the time its a 5-10 min thing where I have to repeatedly do this.
Anybody know what's up?

Your Linksys router has a model name? Have you the latest firmware?

    I have been having issues with not receiving texts and voicemails daily, for a few months now. If I turn the phone completely off, when I turn it back on the messages will flood in from hours before. I can't be continually turning off my phone in case someone left me a message. How do I resolve this issue?

    Wifi:  my Cell phone will remember 10 wifi connections.  So delete any you don't use often and your home wifi and try to enter home wifi again.
    if it still won't connect to home wifi, call your internet provider for help.  You may need a newer router or different settings Or upgraded service.   Your phone seeks the best connection and will refuse lesser connections.
    last resort.  Backup the phone.  Do a full reset, then restore as new with the backup.
    if still not fixed, go back to apple and insist on repair or replacement.
    HOWEVER.   voicemail is not a wifi issue, it's a carrier function, which is why the SIM card is a suspect.

  • I have Type kit turned OFF, so why is it still messing with my documents Adobe?

    I have Type kit turned OFF, so why is it still messing with my documents Adobe?
    Yet again you have managed to "fix" something that was not broken.
    Creative cloud has been nothing but aggro since I installed it, wish I could stay on CS5......not that that is much better mind.
    I have created documents with the fonts installed before I swapped to CC, now when I open them it replaces the font with default Myriad and the correct font has gone from my fonts menu. Why? the fonts are obviously already installed otherwise how would I have created it in the first place?
    Please sort this out Adobe, your products used to be the industry standard. Now they are just SUB STANDARD with no competition, and most users feel they are being short changed because we don't have any other option. Not really good enough is it?

    I have the same problem were you able to fix it?

  • If I have my mail turned off on my iphone 3gs, I cannot reach some of my contacts by touching their phone number, some I can. Why is this?

    When I have my mail turned off on my Iphone 3GS, I cannot then just touch the phone number of a contact and get it to dial.  I leave my mail turned off frequently because of all the spam that comes in.  Seems I should be able to touch dial all contacts regardless whether my mail is turned on or not.  This does not occur with all contacts but some.  Very irritating.

    The "streaming" in iOS 6 is not traditional streaming. When a song is played it is also cached in a non-permanent storage on the iPhone. As you play music older songs will be deleted or you can delete all the music at once by going to Settings > General > Usage, tapping Music, then swiping across "all music" and tapping the delete button.

  • Why did all my apps update when I have automatic updates turned off?

    Settings/iTunes & App Stores/Automatic Downloads
    Music
    Apps
    Documents
    I have them all turned OFF so that I can manually update my apps when I choose to.
    Yesterday there were 11 updates left after I had finished updating the apps I use most often.
    Today, it says ALL my apps are up to date?!
    So, did Apple force a bulk update on me despite my having turned everything OFF? Or did all my updates just suddenly disappear overnight???
    I will be VERY angry if I find out that my apps can be forcibly updated without my say so!
    If so, how can I prevent this from happening again? If not, same question?

    It seems to be a common problem.

  • Since upgrading my phone to 6.0.1, I'm using way too much data. I believe it's the podcast app that's not loading shows while I'm connected to wifi. I have the 3g turned off for podcasts??? also after a phone call or an alert it starts playing a podcast?

    since upgrading my phone to 6.0.1, I'm using way too much data. I believe it's the podcast app that's not loading shows while I'm connected to wifi. I have the 3g turned off for podcasts??? also after a phone call or an alert it starts playing a podcast?

    I've also had the same issues, after upgrading to IOS 6.0, the apps in my iPhone 4 were crashing and the battery life run out very fast.
    The only solution worked for me was to remove all mail accounts (Exchange/Gmail) from my iPhone (in settings) and then add them back.
    The crashing were stopped! also the battery was back to normal.
    I found the solution by first looking at the crash logs (in IOS 6). you can find them at Settings -> General -> About (at the bottom of the About menu you will find the option that opens the logs).
    There i saw many logs about Low Memory crash. 99% of the logs were pointed that the largest process (use the most memory) during the crashes is "dataaccessd".
    I search in the web and found that this process is a deamon process that reponsible the Mail accounts (like Exchange/Gmail) and contancts list.
    I've installed the app "System Status - activity monitor" which shows important system info like CPU usage, Memory usage and running processes.
    Before apply my solution (deleting the mail accounts) i saw that the CPU usage was very high which consume the battery very fast. Also i saw that the memory (RAM) was run out.. which probably what cause the crashing..
    After deleting the mail accounts (at Settings -> Mail, Contacts, Calendars) i check again with the System Status app, and saw that the memory and CPU were back to normal.
    Adding the mail accounts back, still everything work ok
    Hope this solution will help you too,
    Enjoy!

    1.  What am I deleting specifically when this message appears "Are you sure you want to turn off CNN backups and delete the backup data from the cloud?
    2.  If I have the app turned off for storage in iCloud does this mean the app can not be downloaded to a new device?
    3.  If I have the app turned off for storage in iCloud and I delete the app off my phone can I download the app again or do I have to repurchase the app?

    Every app that you buy or get for free in appstore/itunes belongs to you and can be downloaded on up to 10 devices or saved on up to 5 computers. Instructions to download apps to new devices here

    Here comes a "BUT" - imagine your kid playing game and getting to level 51 and have to start over from level one. Or imagine that history that you have in your CNN app. That is what icloud backup contains. My 500 scifi books are in one of the app backups and I REALLY do not want to lose it. That is what you would turn off.

  • How do you reduce/turn off keypad sound when making a phone call

    How do you reduce/turn off keypad sound when making a phone call?

    If I understand the question correctly, it is not about turning off keyboard clicks, it's about silencing the beeps made when manually keying in a  phone number. With keyboard clicks turned off, the beeps still sound when keying in a phone number. If I'm reading the iPhone User Guide correctly, it explains how to turn off keyboard clicks but not how to silence the   beeps when keying in a phone number. The only way I have found to silence the beeps is to put the phone into silent mode.

  • HT201415 Disconnects from Wifi or have to manually turn off and turn back on to connect

    I have an iPhone 4 that sometimes will loose wifi connection. Cellular data is turned off and all data is restricted to wifi only. Will work for a while and then load slowly or not at all. Have to manually turn off wifi and then turn back on to get it to work again. After a while this process keeps happening. All other devices in the home including PS3, Wii, and my other iPhone 3GS do not have any issues. Only the IPhone 4 has this disconnecting issues or totally does not detect the wifi at all sometimes. Please help!

    Is this on all WiFi networks, or only your home network? If it's the home network try rebooting your router by turning it off for a few seconds. In either case go to Settings/General/Reset - Reset network settings. You will not lose any data, but will have to re-enter your WiFi encryption passcodes.
