I've had my mac for over year and in the past two weeks the Mac keeps dropping my internet connection?

I've had my Mac for over a year with no problems. In the last week I have started dropping my internet connection. I've try all the fixes in the Apple Support website with no luck.

The waranty should cover it.

    Apple will do a like-for-like exchange of your iPod.  Be sure to have your music backed up prior to the exchange.

    My wife had an iPad for a year and synced to our computer with no problem.  I recently received an ipad2 and when I tried to sync using separate apple and iTunes passwords, under her computer user name, it appears I over-road her account and synced all her apps with my apps on my iPad.  I then set myself up as a new user on our computer and tried to sync.  I now get the error that my iPad is synced to another library.  How can I start over without erasing all my data on the iPad?

    Go back to her login.  Unless you deliberately erased apps, they should all be there, both yours and hers!  Then, you need to set up each iPad separately.  You will notice that they have separate names for that very purpose.
    There is no problem with multiple Apple IDs on the same iTunes on the same computer except...  Apps are permanently associated with the ID that was originally used to obtain them.  If you choose to update an app from inside iTunes and you're logged into the "wrong" ID, you must log out and back in again.
    On the bright side, you can configure either or both iPads to sync with apps and music and movies, etc. from either or both IDs.  Further, if you choose to update the apps from the iPads themselves, there is no need to log out/in.  The device handles that.  All you need is the correct password.  In my case, I use the same password for both IDs to make things easier.

  • I cannot open my photoshop, its asking for a serial number. I do have one but it will not accept it. I've had this program for 5 years and this has never happened before.

    If your Creative Suite version is #3 through 6, you might try running the CS Cleaner Tools in preparation for a re-install.

    If you have a legacy version, it may be that the activation servers for your product are no longer available.

    Most people have no problems with installing firefox as an upgrade, but there are quite a few things that can cause problems. Please have a look at the articles
    * [[software Update Failed]] <-- clickable link (blue ) --
    * [[firefox will not start]]
    * [[firefox does not work]]
    Post back after you read them and say what you tried. Have you ensured you used an admin account, possibly needing to check the UAC setting, and that security software is not blocking the changes. You should certainly try starting in firefox's [[safe mode]] either from a menu/icon option or by holding the shift key as you attempt to run firefox.
    Is the browser icon you see on the desktop, and a firefox icon ?

  • You can't use The following message is stopping me access my disk utility.  'this version of the application "Disk Utility" with this version of OS X.'  not only that my Mac pro keeps dropping my internet connection and logs on to BT Open.

    After installing Yosmite, The following message is stopping me accessing my disk utility.  'You can't use this version of the application “Disk Utility” with this version of OS X.' you have “Disk Utility” 12.1.1. 
    not only that my Mac pro keeps dropping my internet connection and logs on to BT Open.
    Help

    For whatever reason you don't have the Yosemite version of Disk Utility which is 13. I suggest you reinstall Yosemite.
    Reinstalling OS X Without Erasing the Drive
    Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall OS X: Select Reinstall OS X and click on the Continue button.
    Download and install the 10.10.1 update.
    Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.
    Check that you have the current version of Disk Utility.

  • I can not download 19 songs that I recently downloaded it is telling me that my device is not authorized.  I have had this nano for many years and never had a problem downloading songs until now. I have even went as far as to restore the nano and it still

    I can not download 19 songs that I recently purchased on my laptop.  I am getting the message that my Nano is not an authorized device.  Even though I have had it for years and it has many songs downloaded from my laptop.  I even decided to do the restore and it is still saying that the 19 songs can not be downloaded to my nano.  I did recently upgrade my window's 7 version.  Maybe this has created the problem. 

    Yes, the upgrade is the likely cause. 
    First you should try to deauthorize your computer/iTunes library before attempting to authorize it again.  To do this, click the Store drop down menu in iTunes and choose Deauthorize this Computer.  Then enter in your iTunes account credentials.
    When it has finished, choose Store -> Authorize this Computer and again enter in your Apple ID account credentials. 
    Finally, try resyncing your Nano to see if that makes a difference.

  • I have tried to load firefox, I close old program, restart my computer, but it always telling me to close firefox when have. Now I've had this program for a year and I still have the same problem, help!!!!!!!!!!

    If I X out for the night, and then the next day I hit the icon to go back on firefox, it tell me to close firefox and to do that I have to restart my computer, now I should not have to do that. HELP!!!!!

    1) ensure iTunes is authorized for your iTunes store account(s)
    2) connect your device and right-click or control-click it in the iTunes Source list, then choose transfer purchases from the shortcut menu that appears.
    3) sync the device
    iTunes will wipe the iPhone but, since you transferred your purchases in the previous step, your content will be in your library and you can re-populate the iPhone with it.
    above works for purchases from the iTunes store. for everything else, check out this post by Zevoneer.

  • Mac Mini drops WIRED internet connection

    Hi Folks,
    I have a Mac Mini that keeps dropping it's internet connection every couple of hours. I have tried a couple of different routers and am now using the airport extreme N router which I purchased a couple of days ago but to no avail. Other computers on my network stay connected without any issues, its only the mac mini that keeps doing this and not in any particular pattern. This is with a WIRED connection to the router. When I use the wireless its even more erratic. I listen to music using an airport express that is also connected via ethernet to the Airport extreme but obviously when that keeps cutting in and out.
    Was hoping people might have some suggestions here.
    Thanks!

    Copy down the network address settings when things are ok, then recheck the settings when you have the problem. This will show if your loosing your ip addressing. When you have the problem, try to ping the address of the other computers. If you get a response, this will tell you if the problem is local or connectivity to the internet. (Go to Utilities>Terminal then ping xxx.xxxx.xxxx.xxxx)

    That's because you've never installed iOS 5 or 6
