I get a weak signal with WIFI or 3G on, but a strong signal with EDGE.HELP

I get a weak signal with WIFI or 3G on, but a strong signal with EDGE. This doesn't make any sense! Help!

this happens to me, too. i get 1 bar of 3g but 4-5 when it switches to edge.
i also got this on my old blackjack ii and thought maybe it was just something having to do with that phone, but i guess not!

What can I expect of my 4s with wifi connectivity. My 4s receive a signal from the same router I have always used. My 3G would pick up a signal throughout the house, and my 4s won't allow me out of the room. Is my new phone defective or just inferior.

4S at my house have stronger antenna than 3G iPhone. Reset Network Settings, tap Settings App>General>Reset, near bottom>Reset Network Settings. If still problem take to Apple for Warranty Coverage.

I guess I will wrap this up. I have abandoned iPhoto and viewing my Photo Streams using it and moved to Adobe products (Bridge + PS). So that's that.

You would need to have burned the disc using iDVD or a third-party application such as Toast. Is that what you did?

Problem with WiFi on one netbook but not the other

I have a curious problem in that I am able to connect and browse via the wireless network on one netbook using the home hub no problem, but another netbook connects the wireless network but does not allow me to browse. Curiously it works no problem on ethernet. The netbook with the problem is running Windows 7 Home Pro with Microsoft Essentials as the AV protection. The netbook without the problem is running Windows XP Home Pro with AVG.
I have tried all sorts from rolling back Windows updates, reinstalling the wireless device drivers, refreshing/flushing dns and various command prompts but nothing seems to work.
I took the netbook away and tried connecting to another wireless network and it worked straight away no problem which leads me to believe it is a dns issue with the BT connection on my netbook.
I have enclosed the IPCONFIG for both the wireless and ethernet connection in case anyone can spot anything and make suggestions...

Wireless connections are classed as public by default, so file sharing and network discovery is disabled.
You have to change your wireless connection so that it is in the Private network classification.
I cannot remember how to do this, as its a while since I played around with a Win 7 or Vista laptop.
Any settings only affect the actual wireless connection you change, so if you access public wifi, then that will be classed as a public network, and file sharing will be disabled.
Ethernet connections are usually assumed private.
I am sure a Google search will tell you more, if its not in Windows help.
There are some useful help pages here, for BT Broadband customers only, on my personal website.

I can facetime with a friend in korea but i cant facetime with a friend in florida what is going on ?

i can facetime with a friend in korea but i can't facetime a friend in florida what is going on ? how do you delete an app that is still downloading ? i downloaded an app and it is taking forever to download , i've downloaded the app before and it didn't take this long what is going on? if anyone can help me that would be great thanks a bunch!!!

Short Answer: Yes
When they set up facetime, they either used an apple ID, or (for iphone only) their phone number. You call using one of them. An apple id linked email address in my opinion is simpler, as you don't need to worry about country codes and the like. (I have never tried to facetime anyone out of the country, so I will admit I am not sure what you do about country codes.)
These articles are a little dated, but should help you set up your or your friends facetime if you need to.

New MBP won't print with Wifi HP All-in-one that it cam with from Apple

Hey, all just got a new MBP and the free HP all in one wireless printer.
After installing all the software and drivers I managed to bonjour it through our router or direct through USB.
Same on my iMAc
However, Wifi will hang for a few minutes , then start to print and then finish on the print queue but the page will be half printer etc.. With USB it prints straight away and complete pages.
Is this a bug in the drivers or what?
Thanks all,

iTunes, iPhoto, and Safari all use the same protocol for wireless device finding for shared items as the printer. Bonjour may be holding things up, if other items are attempting to share data over the network.

Strange issue with RAM upgrade: It works but it doesn't! Please help.

Hello Everyone,
I have a very strange issue with my iMac since upgrading my RAM from 4 to 12 gig. When I first installed the new RAM it booted up and ran great. The next time I went to boot the iMac up it swtiched on but didn't get as far as the first white boot up screen. I tried turning it off and on a few times using the power on/off button but still no success. I decided to remove the RAM and reseat it. The computer then booted up again fine. Here's the problem though: when I went to switch my iMac on the next day it wouldn't boot up. Again, I took the RAM out and put it back in and the iMac booted up fine. I've checked the status of the RAM in the system profiler and it reports that everything is OK. So, I'm at a loss. Obviously, I don't want to go through this process every time I want to start up my Mac. Any ideas/solutions would be very gratefully received.
Many thanks in advance.

I completely agree with you. It will be one of the 3 issues you outline. The machine was bought brand new and has never given me a problem. It is just the introduction of the new RAM that has started a problem. However, I did just risk a restart and it booted up fine. I don't know if a restart is any different to shutting down and then pressing the on/off button to start the computer. Maybe my last reseating has done the trick or maybe my thinking is flawed because restarting involves a different process to booting up by pressing the on/off button. I don't know.
In the part of the world I'm sitting in it's night time now so I will leave the diagnostics running and check the results in the morning. I hope the issue is now resolved anyway. This sort of thing takes me back to my dark PC days although in this case I know it's probably not the Mac's fault.
Thanks again. Very much appreciated.

My signed applet works with 1.4.1 plugin but it doesn't with 1.4.2_02 !!!

Hi there, I've got problems trying to sign an applet with Java 2. That applet is an FTP which is used for uploading files throught the Browser (just upload).
I signed my applet with SDK 1.4.1 when I surfed the page which contains it, the applet works properly (the browser had Java plug in 1.4.1) ... the certificate appeared (thawte), I clicked "Yes" for agreeing the certificate .. everything went fine. The problem was when I tried to navigate that page with a Browser with Java Plug in 1.4.2, I agreed the cetificate, but when I tried to upload a file with the applet the following error happens :
ava.security.AccessControlException: access denied (java.io.FilePermission C:\install\slsk151.wma read)
     at java.security.AccessControlContext.checkPermission(Unknown Source)
     at java.security.AccessController.checkPermission(Unknown Source)

     at FtpSigned.upload(FtpSigned.java:463)
     at FtpSigned.run(FtpSigned.java:526)
     at java.lang.Thread.run(Unknown Source)
after that I downloaded the SDK 1.4.2_02 and I installed the plugin
1.4.2_02 (build 1.4.2_02-b03)
I signed tha applet again and it didn't work ...
please ... I need help!
Thanks in advance.
Nico.

Funny, I had a problem going to _03 when it worked fine in _02. Symptoms: In IE, Sun's plug-in displays security warning prompt for signed applet, and, even though the user clicks YES to accept, all priv operations cause exceptions. It sounds like what you're referring to, but I'm wondering why I didn't see it in _02. Anyway, I'm going to look into the doPriv... stuff to see if that fixes my prob and I'll report back FWIW.

I am new to this. I downloaded Itunes and have a new ipod shuffle. I cannot get it to sync. Downloaded music to computer but now I am stuck! Help?!

I downloaded Itunes for 64 bit OS windows. Bought a shuffle, downloaded music to computer, but cannot get shuffle to sync. Looked at FAQS it says to go to "DEVICES" on Itunes store, but I don't even see that anywhere. Can someone help?

Where did you download it from and how ? If you downloaded it from the ibookstore in the iBooks app then it should be on the bookshelf back in the iBooks app (tap the Library button at the top left of the store if you are still in it). Only ibooks that you buy from the ibookstore or your computer's iTunes will show in the cloud for redownloading in the Purchased tab in the ibookstore in the iBooks app (and they will only show there whilst they remain in your country's store).
If you were using a site on Safari then unless you specified an app to download it into then it will only be in Safari's cache and will you won't be able to access it. If you did buy it via Safari then depending upon the site that you bought/downloaded it from then it might have digital rights management on it that will tie it to that store's apps/ereaders - if the site has its own app in the app store then download that and you might be able to download the book directly in it.
There is a FAQ for iBooks here : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4059
