Ialertu.... no longer sees wireless

Dont know if anyone uses this little program on their MBP... its kind of a fun free security program... however... after much testing and isolation of the issue... I have realized that this program causes issues with my wireless....
http://www.macupdate.com/app/mac/21282/ialertu
Its very strange and even though I can still see my network under the scanned wi fi area... if I open airport utility...it doesn't see the network at all
As soon as I quit ialertu.... everything goes back to normal... Very weird... I'm going to uninstall and re-install and see if it makes a difference. I know its basically free software so you can't expect alot but I found this to be a very strange side effect of running the program and wondered if anyone else had seen it.

I'd consider contacting the publisher as well just to see if they have any ideas.

  • Desktop no longer sees wireless networks

    My wireless was working fine last night. This morning it was connected to wireless networks but it was on a "limited connection" basis. I restarted my computer and now there are no networks displayed when I try and connect to wiress. 
    I can connect to the wireless with my laptop and iphones but for some reason I can't get anything going on my HP Desktop. 
    Here is my desktop information: 
    »HP Pavilion p6730f Desktop PC 
    Serial Number:   {Private Information Removed}
    Product Number:   BV533AAR 
    Any solutions?

  • My old PowerPC G4 no longer sees any wireless networks

    My old PowerPC G4 no longer sees any wireless networks. The PowerPC and my new iMac was powered off for a week. When I powered them on, the iMac found the usual wireless networks that are seen around here but the PowerPC did not see ANY! Even though they sit next to each other!! The G4 worked fine before and was connected to the internet.
    The G4 has an AirPort card in it and IS enabled. Is the problem with the card (how do I verify?) or did something get turned off on the re-boot?
    BTW the AirPort card does shows up in the system info and has firmware version 9.52 but states that "wireless network not available" under the Current Wireless Network.
    How do I fix this?
    Please Help!

    As this is an old G4, I presume you have a PCI network card.
    I had a similar problem on my son's old G4. After a lot of messing around thinking it was a software problem, I discovered that the antenna was damaged and did not make a good connection to the card. I could get it to work intermittently by pushing it on. The solution was to buy a new card.
    So try manipulating the antenna connection at the back of your mac to see if you can get a signal.

  • My iPhone 5S no longer sees my wireless printer via bluetooth

    my iPhone 5S no longer sees my wireless printer via bluetooth.  All it does in Settings is continually search for devices.  I've rebooted the phone, as well as the printer.  I even sat next to the printer with no luck.  It did find the printer when I initially set it up.

    Did this work for you in the past?
    ios does not support bluetooth printers without extra software.

    You need to buy the right printer.
    The iPad uses a print technology called AirPrint. Airprint is a particular communication protocol that flows over WiFi.  So, having a WiiFi printer isn't sufficient. The printer needs to be of an Airprint variety of WiFi.

  • My iphone no longer sees my airplay device

    i have x-mirage1.06.6 running on my 10.6.8 minimac wired to my lan, and my 10.9.5 macbook pro sees it wirelessly & can display on it just fine.

  • Connection To Airport Extreme Good, But It No Longer Sees Internet?

    I have my airport extreme daisy chained to my verizon wireless router with an Ethernet cable, and this has worked great until now. My verizon wireless router is still working and connected to the Internet, but my airport extreme no longer sees the Internet yet I am still able to connect to it with my Mac book.

    When I connect wireless to the AE it shows a connection to it, but I am unable to access the Internet. When I connect wireless to my primary router I am able to access the Internet.
    This is why I believe the AE is not connected to the Internet.
    I tried the unplug for 15 minutes and plug it back in with no luck. I do have a green light on, I am showing a connection to it from the Mac book, but still no email no web surfing, no Internet. If I unplug the Ethernet cable from the back of the AE and connect it directly to my Mac book Internet works just fine. So the feed is good, but no wireless Internet coming from the AE.

  • MacBook Air No Longer Sees Remote External Drive

    I have an iMac with a FW800 connected external hard drive. I use it for Time Machine backups. Also use an Airport Extreme for wireless connection. My MacBook Air at one time was able to "see" that external drive via the Airport and I used it to backup the laptop with Time Machine. Now, all of a sudden, the MBA no longer sees the external drive. What has happened? I use the MBA only occasionally, and told Time Machine to backup only when I tell it to. So, LOTS probably has changed since the last backup. But, what change has broken this connection? My iMac sees it just fine and does Time Machine backups just fine. When I want to share the DVD drive of the iMac, that works as it should. I just can't see that dang external drive any longer. Both machines are at 10.5.6
    Can you folks give me some places to start looking to get things working again?

    Does the time machine volume meet the requirements?
    -internal drive, not start up disk
    -XSAN volume
    -USB drive
    -fire wire drive
    -eSATA drive
    -network server via AFP (from machines running Leopard), including machines running file sharing
    the volume must be formated as Mac OS Extended or Mac OS Extended (case-sensitive)
    You can't use:
    -Boot Camp partition
    -iPod
    -disk image
    -AirPort Disk
    -iDisk

  • HP Photosmart 5520 printer no longer prints wireless

    Hello.
    I recently got an xfinity cable modem with wireless.  (Xfinity/comcast promoted it should be faster...I am seriously doubthing that!)
    Before this cable modem, I was printing okay with a Netgear router.  Never an issue with it.  Now with the comcast modem with the Netgear router, I can no longer print wirelessly from my computer or anywhere remotely (ipad, laptop, etc).
    I do suspect something with the comcast modem but comcast claims it is NOT them (Yeah, right...works okay flawlessly before and now nothing).   Thus if someone can help me pinpoint where the problem lies, I would be greatly appreciated.   And of course, one cannot turn off the wireless network in the xfinity modem either!!
    Have tried the HP diagnosics but says it cannot establish a 2 way communication.  Everything on the printer display looks correct from a wireless standpoint (i.e. sees the router name, etc).
    I am using Windows Vista
    Thanks!
    Thomas

    What Comcast forced on you is a Gateway device, modem+router.  Call comcast and have them put that Gateway in Full Bridge mode and now connect your router back up and use that.   What is the exact Comcast model number they gave you?

  • ITunes no longer sees my iPad device

    Every now and again iTunes ceases to recognose my iPad. I use an iMac, iPad, old MacBook and have Apple TV and Time Capsule.
    I set a reminder in Calendar to sync/backup my iPad every week with my iMac but every so often, it just doesn't work. I haven't changed the settings but there's no Device listed in the sidebar and it's greyed out as an option in the dropdown menu. There's no summary button either.
    I'm very nervous about rebooting stuff because I don't want to lose what I've got.

    I have the same issue, I set my iPad2 to sync over wifi - but the PC now no longer sees it, and the only answer I've seen on the boards is to plug the iPad in via a USB cable and uncheck the box for wireless syncing... but... it's not recognizing the iPad via USB either, simply as a camera device.
    ... you can see the problem here, I'm sure :-)
    If it isn't recognized, I don't ever see the iPad in my iTunes in order to turn off wifi sync - and on the iPad itself there is no visible way to switch it back either
    Any ideas?

  • After receiving "identical" Time Capsule 3rd gen replacement, my iMac no longer sees my HP LaserJet2420 that my previous Time Capsule enabled seeing

    I no longer remember how my USB-connected HP laser printer was seen with my iMac connected through Time Capsule.  Oddly enough, my iMac also no longer sees the printer when connected directly to iMac.  What the heck happened?  They used to work fine together!

    A printer that is directly connected has to be recognised to be installed..
    I guess the first thing to do is open system profiler and check that the USB is recognising the printer.. If so then the issue is purely drivers.. if not it is bad usb cable.. bad usb port.. bad printer. Plug it into the computer via a powered usb hub.
    If the USB does see the printer but the drivers don't work.. I stand by the comment.. delete all printers and start again.. multiple printers can mess things up equally as well as old drivers.. especially if you did an upgrade install.
    What a shame you didn't buy the network version.. in the future.. never buy usb.. always buy network printers. Any printer called a workgroup printer without network is a contradiction in terms.
    Once you get it working on the computer then you need to start all over again to get it running on the TC again.. man ethernet or wireless printer looks better and better all the time. usb .. shudder.

  • Iphoto on ipad no longer sees my photostream since IOS 7 upgrade

    iPhoto on my ipad no longer sees my photostream in the albums page of the iPhoto app since IOS 7 upgrade??
    I can see my photostream and shared photostreams in the ordinary Apple photo app on the iPad. Prior to IOS 7, all these photostreams were visible in the iPhoto app's albums page. What has changed? Its' most annoying as I was relying on my photostream in the iPhoto app as my source of photos for my journals.
    Any suggestions please???

    I've just had a long chat with Applecare in Colorado. Very helpful they were.
    I can confirm that the "new" IOS 7 version of iPhoto app on all IOS devises does not support your my photostream nor any of your pre IOS 7 upgrade shared photostreams.
    Any new post IOS 7 upgrade shared photostreams will be visible in the iphoto app. I have tested it and it works fine. But all your pre IOS 7 shared photostreams and existing my photostream remain invisible to post IOS 7 iPhoto app.
    This "improvement" to iPhoto on IOS devises is now a lame duck. Why ! I'm now on the lookout for a better photo journalling app for my iPad.

  • My Apple TV no longer sees my MacBook Pro / Itunes Library.

    My Apple TV no longer sees my MacBook Pro / Itunes Library.  Apple TV tells me to turn on Home Sharing on my computer, which I have.
    Also:
    1. All other ATV connections are working (Netflix, movie previews, etc.)
    2. I have all the latest updates for ATV and Itunes
    3. Home sharing is turned on for both ATV and MacBook Pro Itunes
    4. I am correctly logged in to my Itunes account on both ATV, and Itunes on the MacBook Pro
    5. Everything had been working perfectly for approximately one year until yesterday.
    I'm not sure what to try next.
    Thanks.

    Thanks.  I just closed Itunes, came back today to check it out and the pull down menu with "Computer" or "Apple TV" was inexplicably back again and everything now works.  I had tried restarting Itunes, the modem, and router before with no luck.  Anyway, it's magically working.
    Thanks.

  • Since iOS8 update on 2 iPhones and iPad, they no longer connect wirelessly to OSX iTunes

    Prior to updating my 2 iPhone 5 and iPad2 to iOS 8, they no longer appear wirelessly in iTunes on my Mac - they used to do this, which enabled the shifting of music etc so much easier.  They do show in the sidebar as devices if connected by cable but this is a pain.
    They are all backing up by WiFi.
    Have I missed something or has this option been removed?
    I'd be grateful for any advice.

    WiFi sync does not work in iOS 8. I've filed a bug report with Apple.
    My devices will show up in iTunes immediately after a device reboot, but within 24 hours, WiFi syncing is broken again and they no longer show up.

  • Can no longer connect wirelessly with other computers

    I have an iMac and a Macbook Air.  For some reason I can no longer connect wirelessly between the two. They don't show up in Finder.  Therefore I can't use "Remote Disk" on my Macbook Air to install programs.
    Recently I switched from using an Airport router to a Cisco router. Could this be the problem? I can still connect to the internet through my wireless network, but can't find my computers.

    Hello,
    All the information you need is printed on the back of the Hub. There are two passwords, one for the Wireless setting (WPA password) and one for access to the hub (Admin password).
    (Taken from http://www.jarviser.co.uk/jarviser/images3/newhubpswd.jpg  ).
    If you have forgotten what you changed the admin password to, then I'm afraid you're lost and you should factory reset your Hub:

  • After the Airport update today, Airport Utility no longer sees my new Extreme or my 2 new Airport Express relay stations (same network); however, my internet is working and all Airports are green?

    After the Airport update today, Airport Utility 6.0 no longer sees my new Extreme or my 2 new Airport Express relay stations (same network); however, my internet is working and all Airports are green?  I'm running Lion on my iMac and updated when Airport Utility prompted me to do so a few hours ago.  After applying the updates is when Airport Utility stopped seeing my routers.  But they are working?  Thoughts?

    Did you remember to completely power cycle the entire network?
    You would want to do this after any update or change to the network.
    If you did not do this yet......things are out of sequence.
    Power off everything on the network.....all devices.....power down order is not important
    Wait a few minutes
    Start the modem first and let it run a minute or two by itself
    Start the next device connected to the modem the same way
    Work your way out on the network starting each device about a minute apart
    Check the network
