Ichat disconnects all the time

Hey all,
I'm experiencing a problem with ichat. Whenever i sit idel for 5-10 mintues ichat discconects on me. is there anyway i can have a steady connection on ichat?!

HI Projkt:
Could you tell us a little about your set-up? Are you wireless? Is your Mac going to sleep when it disconnects? Are you behind a router, if so, what's the model/make?
If you are wireless and your Mac goes to sleep, you will loose your AIM connection, the only way to resolve that issue is don't let your mac go to sleep.

A few months ago I bought an imac 27 inch late 2013 ... ever since I have continuously problems with my external HDD that disconnect all the time and cause problems in other software (Lightroom, Adobe PS CS6) ...

a few months ago I bought an imac 27 inch late 2013 .. §16GB - and flash memory) - 3,3 Ghz Intel Core 15
ever since I have continuously problems with my external HDD that disconnect all the time and cause problems in other software (Lightroom, Adobe PS CS6) ... it is not a HDD problem, because it occurs with my 3TB WD HDD (Time Machine), my 1TB WD and 1TB IOMEGA
any one have a solution? anyone dealt with this problem in the apple care program?

You are still under warranty and/or have AppleCare. Call them. Let them deal w/it.

Usb3 drive disconnecting all the time at a usb 3 port on my macbook pro

i just bought the new macbook pro 13 inch and i was into some point tricked because the salesman from apple assured me that the laptop would be shipped with mountain lion and i could do the upgrade for free for maverick. so when i recieved the computer i found out that it actually came with maverick intalled and after talking to an apple customer support he said i could not go back to mountain lion. so most of my software are damaged according to the new system and it simply doesnt let me open many apps i just installed.
so now i have another bigger problem. everythime i connect a usb 3 HD into my new macbook, the HD gets disconnected. i used already 3 diferent drives and tried at least 3 diferent cables but the problem persists. Note that it never happenned with a usb2 port. is anyone having the same problem?
at this point i am pretty upset with the company alltogether. i had purchased at least 30 macs and i never had any sort of problems till now.

I just got a new IMAC and experienced the same issue with a RAID 10 array with 4 drives spontaneously disconnecting in the middle of a data transfer with the message "you should eject disk properly, etc. etc." message.
As many others I tried all the obvious solutions. Different cables, different drives, etc. Then I read something about radio wave interference from wireless keyboards. Well, I don't have wireless keyboards or mice (don't like them) but still, it stuck in the back of my mind.
I did find that a USB 2.0 cable with noise suppression dongles at each end worked just fine, if a bit slowly. Anyway, I found an old set of ferrite couplings that were made for video cables back in the day and placed one set at each end of the USB 3 cable. I then moved my RAID array as far from the computer as possible and plugged it all back in. The problem has not reoccurred even with the transfer of very large folders of files from a networked PC RAID.
Just a thought but it seems to have worked for me although the fact that this sort of thing is necessary does not speak well for Apple.

My ipod says disconnect all; the time now i have updated and restored it

I just opened itunes & connected my ipod. I restored my ipod because i deleted the songs from my ipod and updated it but they didnt come of so i used iupod updater and now it just say "do not disconnect" but it is not showing "do not disconnect" in itunes, but it is on my ipod.This is my second ipod and the same happened last time. can someone please help?. Thanks

If you automatically update your ipod, here's what to do, connect your ipod and WAIT untill itunes knows it's there, then go to edit, preferences, then go to ipod, then if you auto update it, make sure that the box that says "enable disk use" is unchecked. Then click ok. If you manually update, slect auto-update without the "enable disk use" selected.

HT4628 Wi-Fi disconnects all the time

It is very annoying. I have Mac Air. My infrastructure is WPA2 Enterprise using Cisco equipment. This works fine for my Windows PC and Android devices. But Apple products lose connection every 5 minutes, it seems. How do I fix this?

FTP disconnects all the time

Hi
Why does BC server connection disconnects so often? in DW and now using Espresso, BC connection will disconnect every few minutes. Really annoying.
Anything I can change in the FTP setup?
Thanks

Yes,
open the Windows Command Prompt and type ping -t yoursite.com (this should be your site url, without the www or http://)
You can open the command prompt by pressing the Windows key, then typing cmd.exe (if you're using Vista or Windows 7).
After entering ping -t fuxcan.businesscatalyst.com and pressing CTRL+C I got this:
Average ping 147ms and 0% packet loss.
Best regards,

N73 - Memory card disconnecting all the time

Didnt have this problem before. It started happening when I updated to new firmware week ago. When I use data on memory card (mp3 / excel / word / copy data / take pictures / just surf memory card) it disconects!
With message: "Removing memory card is not safe if you don't select "remove memory card"."
Sometimes it passes only few seconds from acessing memory card to disconnecting, sometimes I manage to use memory card even for 10 or more minutes, max is about 1hour or so.
Memory card is takeMS 1GB miniSD and it worked fine before firmware update. How can it be fixed?
Thank you!

Did you find a solution? I have the same problem and indeed just after the firmware update.

I phone disconnecting all the time

My i phone seems to disconnect right after I answer the phone.This happens with new numbers mostly or numbers that are not in my phone book. This is a pain as I am using this phone for business and then my customers get irritated by delayed response.

Get a bumper for your iPhone to ensure you are holding it correctly. I'll leave a link for them at the bottom of this post.
AT&T is also notorious for having terrible cellphone quality and frequent call drops, if you are on AT&T.

Ichat doesn't log all the time/poor camera connectivity

My ichat doesn't always log on. Sometimes it will after using the computer for thirty minutes or so and sometimes not at all(same is true with AIM). However, my firefox and safari both work all the time so it's not an internet connection problem. I'm using an ethernet cable for service. I was wondering if there's a setting or something I need to change...
Also when it does finally connect my isight camera (external) does not always connect to talk with other people. It has worked before rarely but when it's connected the image is extremely choppy and blurry; however, the sound is usually pretty clear and fluid. How can I fix this?
Thanks.

Hi
For your logging on problem
Try logging on to AIM on port 443 rather than port 5190.
Go to IChat in the menu bar > Preferences > Accounts.
Log out of AIM and then use the Server Settings tab
Set the port to 443.
Log back in again.
For your blurry problem
Set the Quicktime streaming setting, goto sys prefs/quicktime/streaming/streaming speed, set to 1.5mbps(dont use automatic)
In ichats prefs click on video and change bandwidth limit to NONE.
Restart iChat.

When I disconnect my iphone 3gs(iOS) from computer, the device disappears from my itunes. This prevents me from doing a wireless sync. how do i fix it so that my device stays on itunes without having to plug it in all the time?

When I disconnect my iphone 3gs(iOS) from computer, the device disappears from my itunes. This prevents me from doing a wireless sync. how do i fix it so that my device stays on itunes without having to plug it in all the time?
it worked the first few times i did it but the next day after i closed out of itunes once, the device only appears when i plug in my phone.

Whenever a menu choice is grayed out, that is because you have Restrictions turned on in Settings. Be sure to turn it off.
You are confusing an itunes store account with an icloud account. You two can continue using the same ID for itunes (thus sharing purchased music, apps, etc.), but you really should have separate accounts (different IDs) for icloud, since an account is intended for one user to keep his/her devices in sync.
To create a new icloud account, go to
http://www.apple.com/icloud/setup/
Then go to Settings>icloud and scroll to the bottom of the screen and tap Delete Account. (have restrictions turned off) That will disconnect the device from the account but will not delete data in icloud or other devices. Then sign in using the new ID.
