Help! N97 power cycling

Hello all. All was going well with my N97 until today.
I decided that I needed more memory on the phone, so decided to return to factory setting to clean it up. I backed up my contacts settings and messages and did the factory restore. All good til now. Then I tried restoring my backup to the phone and the phone crashed. It will no longer turn on. it just keeps lighting up for a split second, beeping and then swithching off again. Software updater will not recognise it.
Help!!

Help! Fast Internet only for short while after power cycling of AEBS

The Charter Communication tech came out to check why we weren't getting the advertised 20meg speed. Well, the speed out of the modem is ~19meg and if I plug in the laptop directly to the brand new Airport Extreme router (firmware 7.4.1), we do get the fastest speed.
I ditched the setup I had with dual band separate networks, since we don't actually transfer files between computers much. I just want fast Internet for downloads/uploads.
I have the network setup on auto bands and auto channels (and I have tried setting the channels manually). We don't have many neighbors so there isn't a lot of interference that I can tell.
If I unplug the router and plug it back in--then the wireless network speed is fast ~19 megs. However, after less than 30 min. the network bogs down and becomes 5-7megs. Then if I power cycle, it goes right back up to 19megs.
Why????

my macbook air won't get past the white apple screen. I've tried power cycling the batter but won't help

Take each of these steps that you haven't already tried. Stop when the problem is resolved.
Step 1
The first step in dealing with a startup failure is to secure the data. If you want to preserve the contents of the startup drive, and you don't already have at least one current backup, you must try to back up now, before you do anything else. It may or may not be possible. If you don't care about the data that has changed since the last backup, you can skip this step.
There are several ways to back up a Mac that is unable to start. You need an external hard drive to hold the backup data.
a. Start up from the Recovery partition, or from a local Time Machine backup volume (option key at startup.) When the OS X Utilities screen appears, launch Disk Utility and follow the instructions in this support article, under “Instructions for backing up to an external hard disk via Disk Utility.” The article refers to starting up from a DVD, but the procedure in Recovery mode is the same. You don't need a DVD if you're running OS X 10.7 or later.
b. If Step 1a fails because of disk errors, and no other Mac is available, then you may be able to salvage some of your files by copying them in the Finder. If you already have an external drive with OS X installed, start up from it. Otherwise, if you have Internet access, follow the instructions on this page to prepare the external drive and install OS X on it. You'll use the Recovery installer, rather than downloading it from the App Store.
c. If you have access to a working Mac, and both it and the non-working Mac have FireWire or Thunderbolt ports, start the non-working Mac in target disk mode. Use the working Mac to copy the data to another drive. This technique won't work with USB, Ethernet, Wi-Fi, or Bluetooth.
d. If the internal drive of the non-working Mac is user-replaceable, remove it and mount it in an external enclosure or drive dock. Use another Mac to copy the data.
Step 2
If the startup process stops at a blank gray screen with no Apple logo or spinning "daisy wheel," then the startup volume may be full. If you had previously seen warnings of low disk space, this is almost certainly the case. You might be able to start up in safe mode even though you can't start up normally. Otherwise, start up from an external drive, or else use the technique in Step 1b, 1c, or 1d to mount the internal drive and delete some files. According to Apple documentation, you need at least 9 GB of available space on the startup volume (as shown in the Finder Info window) for normal operation.
Step 3
Sometimes a startup failure can be resolved by resetting the NVRAM.
Step 4
If you use a wireless keyboard, trackpad, or mouse, replace or recharge the batteries. The battery level shown in the Bluetooth menu item may not be accurate.
Step 5
If there's a built-in optical drive, a disc may be stuck in it. Follow these instructions to eject it.
Step 6
Press and hold the power button until the power shuts off. Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed to start up, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Use a different keyboard and/or mouse, if those devices are wired. If you can start up now, one of the devices you disconnected, or a combination of them, is causing the problem. Finding out which one is a process of elimination.
Step 7
If you've started from an external storage device, make sure that the internal startup volume is selected in the Startup Disk pane of System Preferences.
Start up in safe mode. Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Post for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to start and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know the login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
When you start up in safe mode, it's normal to see a dark gray progress bar on a light gray background. If the progress bar gets stuck for more than a few minutes, or if the system shuts down automatically while the progress bar is displayed, the startup volume is corrupt and the drive is probably malfunctioning. In that case, go to Step 11. If you ever have another problem with the drive, replace it immediately.
If you can start and log in in safe mode, empty the Trash, and then open the Finder Info window on the startup volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name.) Check that you have at least 9 GB of available space, as shown in the window. If you don't, copy as many files as necessary to another volume (not another folder on the same volume) and delete the originals. Deletion isn't complete until you empty the Trash again. Do this until the available space is more than 9 GB. Then restart as usual (i.e., not in safe mode.)
If the startup process hangs again, the problem is likely caused by a third-party system modification that you installed. Post for further instructions.
Step 8
Launch Disk Utility in Recovery mode (see Step 1.) Select the startup volume, then run Repair Disk. If any problems are found, repeat until clear. If Disk Utility reports that the volume can't be repaired, the drive has malfunctioned and should be replaced. You might choose to tolerate one such malfunction in the life of the drive. In that case, erase the volume and restore from a backup. If the same thing ever happens again, replace the drive immediately.
This is one of the rare situations in which you should also run Repair Permissions, ignoring the false warnings it may produce. Look for the line "Permissions repair complete" at the end of the output. Then restart as usual.
Step 9
If the startup device is an aftermarket SSD, it may need a firmware update and/or a forced "garbage collection." Instructions for doing this with a Crucial-branded SSD were posted here. Some of those instructions may apply to other brands of SSD, but you should check with the vendor's tech support.
Step 10
Reinstall the OS. If the Mac was upgraded from an older version of OS X, you’ll need the Apple ID and password you used to upgrade.
Step 11
Do as in Step 9, but this time erase the startup volume in Disk Utility before installing. The system should automatically restart into the Setup Assistant. Follow the prompts to transfer the data from a Time Machine or other backup.
Step 12
This step applies only to models that have a logic-board ("PRAM") battery: all Mac Pro's and some others (not current models.) Both desktop and portable Macs used to have such a battery. The logic-board battery, if there is one, is separate from the main battery of a portable. A dead logic-board battery can cause a startup failure. Typically the failure will be preceded by loss of the settings for the startup disk and system clock. See the user manual for replacement instructions. You may have to take the machine to a service provider to have the battery replaced.
Step 13
If you get this far, you're probably dealing with a hardware fault. Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store, or go to another authorized service provider.

Satellite Windows 8 laptop will no longer boot up after performing a power cycle

I have a Satellite C855-55107 laptop. It had been working fine, and one day starting this problem: When booting up, it would bring the desktop screen up, and would not let me get to the sign in screen. I went to the Troubleshooting Help here and performed a power cycle. Now, it won't even boot up. The power is working fine. What do I need to do, and what do you think caused the original problem?

Hi! bec! I don't run W8. You could have picked up a Virus ect. Hard to really tell. There will be better replies during the week. I would restore back to factory.If you were infected, that should cure that problem. You could also make a system repair disk and try to boot with it. It can be made with any computer that is running W8. If you don't have that option, I guess it's back to factory.

E2500 - Needs to be Power Cycled Once or Twice a Day.

Brand new E2500, needs to be power-cycled once or twice a day. Already reinstalled Cisco Connect and updated the Firmware.
Having some problems with my brand new router and customer service is being of VERY LITTLE help! What should I do?

Let me know the concern that you have, is with the wired connection or with the wireless connection?
You said that you have upgraded the firmware, but after upgrading the firmware you didn’t reset the Router… So reset the Router, power cycle the whole network… Then follow the steps:
If you want to configure the router with the help of the CD so for that you need to uninstall the existing Cisco Connect Software from the computer if there...
Reset the Router and power cycle the network...Make the following connectivity – Connect the Modem with the Router’s Internet port and then connect the Computer with any one of the Ethernet port of the Router [Numbered 1, 2, 3 and 4]... Then install the Cisco Connect Software... It will help you in configuring the Router...
Otherwise you can configure it manually as well…For Let me know the name of the ISP [Internet Service Provider] – means the connection is a DSL connection or cable connection…
So if you have a DSL connection you can refer to this link:
http://www6.nohold.net/Cisco2/ukp.aspx?pid=93&login=1&vw=1&app=search&articleid=4020&userrole=Linksy...
So if you have a Cable Internet Connection you can refer to this link:
http://www6.nohold.net/Cisco2/ukp.aspx?pid=93&vw=1&articleid=3686
As far as the wireless is concern:
# Open up the browser and on the address bar type “IP address of the Default Gateway” that will open up the Router setup page…
# Then Click on wireless Tab create the Wireless Network Name SSID and select the channel to 6, 9, and 11… Click Save Settings...
# Then Click on Wireless Security sub tab and select the security mode and provide the password as per the requirement… Click Save Settings...
After doing the settings try to connect the preferred network on the wireless devices and check the connectivity….

Power Cycling Thinkvision LCD Monitors from the Mains Board each night

Hi
Can anyone confirm whether IBM / Lenovo have said its ok to power cycle monitors at the wall socket each night, rather than relying on power saving modes?
I have about 50 Thinkvision monitors - L151, L170p, L171p, L192p, L193p, L200p, L201 - all hung off the same circuit and I want to flick the circuit breaker each night, regardless of whether the monitors are on or off.
I can't see any issues with this - but would like IBM / Lenovo to confirm as well.
Any ideas?
Cheers

Error PWRCYCLE: Card in module 7, is being power cycled off

I have Cisco IDM version 6.1(2)E3.This IDM is module type which once with core switch.The problem its when each time want access GUI use https://10.x.x.x out error 443 and I forced reset ips use command line. When I show log at core switch found PWRCYCLE: Card in module 7, is being power cycled off (Module note responding to Keep Alive polling).
Any body help me...

The PWRCYCLE log entry in your switch is expected when you reset you sensor. A sensor reset will reload the sensor taking it off the power bus and putting it back on. This results in several switch log messages about the sensor on slot 7.
Your GUI access problem is a different matter. Search this forum for the symptoms you are experiencing. There have been many working solutions to GUI problems posted here.

Color Laserjet 2605dn power cycles when receiving a print job

Very recently my Laserjet 2605dn color printer has been power cycling when it receives a print job. At first it was when it received large pdf files. But now it does it more often. I download and reinstalled the HP Linux Imaging and Printing System (ver. 3.15.4) and the printer now resets everytime I try to do a network discovery for the device.
Does anyone have any thoughts as to what board might be at fault ? Has anyone hear do fthis issue ?
Thanks

There are a couple of reasons that could be happening. It could have something to do with the connection, or perhaps the program you're printing from. Try to go to the link I'm including below and follow the steps there, and hopefully this will help you resolve your issue.

Power cycling since update & other issues

I've had a few issues since the most recent update. Power cycling, when I try an open an app a different app opens. For example when I try to open the gallery my camera360 app opens. It's been really laggy at making phone calls, I will dial or hit a contact shortcut and it will take 45 seconds to a minute before it will dial.
When people call me, half the time it will ring, but the answer screen will not come up and so I will miss the call. I called customer service asking for help and they told me there is nothing they can do, and I should come to the forum to find out what to do to fix these issues.
Either that or I can do a factory reset. I am so tired of them telling me to do a complete factory reset EVERY time there is an issue with this phone.
I need to be able to answer my calls.

WRT54GX2 Power cycles every 75 seconds

I have three wrt54gx2 v.1 wireless routers. All three in different subnets but basically configured the same way with the exception of the ip addresses. Two of the routers power cycle about every 75 seconds. I backed up the configurations (in case a firmware upgrade went bad) and magically the router stopped power cycling. I upgraded the firmware from v.1.01.14 to v. 1.01.21 not believing that backing up the configurations had anything to do with the problem. The router rebooted after successfully completing the firmware upgrade and the intermittent power cycling started again at about the same time interval as before the upgrade. Does this make any sense to anyone? I've been through the forum and technical support but I can't seem to find anything with exactly the same symptoms. Any help anyone can be would be appreciated immensely...this thing is driving me crazy.

After a firmware upgrade, you must reset the router to factory defaults, then setup the router again from scratch. DO NOT use the configuration file that you saved.
The router's configuration file contains the router's initialization data, that is, the data that is read in when the router starts up. If you have an error in this data, it can potentially cause bizarre router behavior. This is the reason that you must setup the router again from scratch.
Please let me know whether or not this helped.

FATAL Error After Power Cycle- GVRP related?

Hello all,
Happy New Year!
I have a network of four 300 Series small business switches. All are running software version 1.3.5.58 (latest version).
Three of them are connected by 2 Port LAG groups to the central switch which in turn connects to the internet facing router. There is no loops in the architecture and spanning tree is running. There are a total of 4 VLANs and GVRP is enabled with the four VLANs statically created on the main switch.
Normally everything runs very happily and is perfectly stable.
However, a power failure this morning resulted in a power cycle on two of the switches. They did not recover gracefully and kept restarting.
I removed the ports from the LAG groups in the main switch (not impacted by the power cycle) and then rebuilt them to recover connectivity and restore normal operation.
Both of the switches which restarted had multiple entries in their log files like this:-
%GVRP-F-NOSTATREG: GVRPP_checkStaticToDynamic_update: Port isn't Statically registered on vlan 100 ***** FATAL ERROR ***** Reporting Task: BRMN. Software Version: 1.3.5.58 (date 10-Oct-2013 time 17:15:41) 0x16adbc 0x166f28 0x6df2b0 0x48fad8 0x4903e8 0x490608 0x51a234 0x79dfd8 0x7b9f8c 0x7c1500 0x445d 88 0x41e04c 0x7d4c80 0x61cb68 0x1223f0 ***** END OF FATAL ERROR *****
Has any one seen this before? Have I made some "rookie" mistake with by GVRP configuration?
Kind Regards,
Andy.

Hi Andrew, the GVRP database is kind of a strange creature (the protocol itself is just strange). By removing a VLAN or interface from the GVRP database, when the join message is sent it will send an update to the downstream switch. I suspect that by removing the LAG there was an unintended database change (in fact the database on the receiving switch didn't have the desired database as you modified the trunk which strips all VLAN). So what happens is the downstream switch "defaulted" to 1 vlan then the re-establishment of the LAG sent more VLAN and the GVRP database didn't match up.
Does this kind of make sense?
If you're in for a simple lab you can create a trunk between switches with multiple vlans tagged (do like 5 vlans, not just 2). Then remove one of those vlans off the master switch. Observe the behavior.

WRT310N version 1: Port 4 light is on but nothing is connected after power cycle

I have the WRT310N version 1 with the latest firmware date Dec 2009. Everything is working great except when I turn off the router and power back up. I am only using port 1 but after a power cycle both port 1 and port 4 lights are on and I can't connect to the Internet. If I keep unplugging the router (2 to 5 times) with 30 secs between I can eventually get just the port 1 light and then everything is good to go until the next power cycle. I don't need or want to keep my router on 24/7 so any advice is greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance!

Hello.
Try to hard reset the router by pushing the button for 30 secs then power cycle it again.
What if you plug the computer to the other ports? Do you experience the same problem? Have you tried a different cable to connect the computer?
Not sure if reflashing the firmware could help on this one but you could also give that a try. click here
Make sure you know the hardware version of your router before reflashing the firmware. It is found underneath the router itself.

TPC-2006 Labview vi execution slows, then stops, forcing power cycle

I have a user interface vi comprising 4 while loops, each with a 100 ms "wait till next ms" timer. There is a TCP/IP Tx loop, TCP/IP Rx loop, a loop to build the 2 bytes to be sent, and a loop to decode the 2 bytes received.
I added loop counters as a debug tool. All 4 hum along more-or-less in sync for about 10 minutes, but then they all start s l o w i n g down, and while I watched, all 4 quit incrementing. When this happens the TPC-2006 is utterly locked up, forcing a power cycle to recover.
I've attached the vi in hopes that somebody will see my error, or maybe there's a memory leak in the labview executable?

I also don't see anything directly that would cause the code to slow down over time. There are a couple things I might recommend, but I'm hesitant because the code looks so meticulously and exquisitely written!
There are a few places in your application where you use a local variable when a direct wire connection is possible. Direct wire connections are always preferable if possibe. Granted, this would only make a small difference in memory usage and performance and should NOT cause your code to slow down. For instance, in the second loop you write a value to PDA Lifter and then read the PDA Lifter value from a local variable. A direct wire connection here would be preferable. Also, in the third loop you are writing all your values to the LEDs (TestLED, HighLED, etc) using local variables. You could easily perform your logic inside the case structure that decides what values to send to the indicators, but then actually use direct terminal connections for the LEDs outside the case structure instead of using local variables.
Finally, if you are using the LabVIEW 8.0 or 8.0.1 PDA module, you might consider transitioning the second loop into an event structure that would only run if a user clicks on one of the buttons. That would save one of the loops from constantly polling six buttons and checking to see if a new value was registered. PDA applications are multi-tasked, not multi-threaded, so it would help to have less loops running concurrently.
I also agree with trying to put all the TCP communication in one loop. It obviously wouldn't make sense to have a TCP Write in the same loop as a TCP Read set to have infinite timeout, since that would slow down the write process if the 2 bytes weren't available at the port to read, but you could set a timeout of 0 or 100ms and then probe the error output to see if a timeout occured.
I've been trying to reproduce the slowdown on my computer with your code. I closed the loop by setting the target IP to localhost and setting the server and client loops to both use port 5555. This sets the app to just talk to itself. It's running fine with no errors, and so far on the PocketPC emulator I see no slowdown. This might be strictly related to TPC-2006 devices.

Firewire 800 device not recognized after a power cycle

I picked up a Seagate FreeAgent Desk | Mac edition (1 Terabyte) a few weeks ago and the first thing I did was format it on my iMac (it came formatted, but I figured it wouldn't hurt). I also wanted to make sure it was done right. So I know the FS works great with this iMac.
As you may see, I have a 3.06 24" iMac to give you an idea of what machine this is being plugged into. The one FW 800 port in the back.
I picked 1394b (FW800) because the speeds are so impressive - and so far this drive is working great! With one exception ..
When I power the machine down & bring it back online, the drive does not automatically come back - and I have to disconnect either the power, or Firewire 800 cable (which I've tried two of - the stock one with the Seagate product and another high quality cable). After that it's smooth sailing.
I just want to get this device working between boots so I can rely on it to take my time machine backups without worrying about fiddling with it to get it working.
Any suggestions would be appreciated, and unfortunately this is my only FW 800 device (not much troubleshooting possibilities). I'm looking to buying a WD MyBook Studio 1TB Fw800 drive - but I won't be doing that (yet) if the port is my issue and not the Seagate drive.
This link is to an image in which you can see my Fw settings in System Profiler.
http://i39.tinypic.com/105dz4y.png
I've been reading the Seagate forums looking for some help, and there seems to be issues with the drivers powering themselves off and confusing the OS, but this doesn't look to be the case. Unfortunately I've got 700GB of data on this drive and will need to move the contents to my on-board drive so I can format the unit with Fat32, plug it into an XP PC (gogo upstairs) and run the Seagate Manager.exe and see if I can modify the power settings (all on a whim, awesome).
I'm just curious what I should do - I don't live in a city where there's an Apple store but there is an Apple authorised reseller/service centre. It looks as though I'll be heading there to see what's up.
Has anyone else seen a problem like this?
Thanks in advance,
hENN

not enough specific information about what caused the problem but I'll give you some pointers to ALWAYS follow with firewire drives. I've been using them for many years without issues through all the OSX versions.
If Mac is powered on: power on seagate and wait a few for the hard drive to spin up, connect firewire cable to Mac first then Seagate. When done : a) unmount the seagate listen for the hard drive to complete its cycle then power seagate down, remove firewire from Mac first then seagate. b) or just power down Mac then power off seagate when the Mac is done.
If Mac is not powered on: connect firewire cable to mac and seagate, power on seagate and listen for hard drive spin up to complete then power on Mac.
The problem with firewire is, if user makes just one mistake with the above then firewire recognition comes into play, such as device will not mount to desktop, etc. Sometimes user gets lucky and nothing happens but consider that rare.
So if user does have firewire troubles , what to do? Not fool proof but many times successful, disconnect external power and all cables and power cycle the external on/off a few times but listen for hard drive spin up and spin down. On the Mac either one or both zap the pram and or power manager reset. This works many times but does not save an external if user highly abuses the procedure. You can also apply this to USB troubles.
