In the latest Lion update, has the dropping WiFi issue really truly been totally fixed?

Anyone still seeing the wifi dropping off, out of the blue, for no reason, issue as was the haunting problem in previous Lion releases?
For those that had the dropping off issue (and there were many).
Did this last Lion release/update really really absolutely totally fix the issue for everyone?
Totally? Completely? Honestly?

I have updated two machines directly to 10.7.2 and have had no issues with either machine.
Are you sure these problems are not as a result of the wireless router used rather than a Lion problem?
I have seen many wireless faults in the past caused by the routers which have been fixed by updating the router firmware.
Maybe those who are posting wireless problems need to also state the make and model of router they are using to see if a pattern emerges?

  • Does the latest osx update remove the flashback malware

    Does the latest osx update remove the flashback malware?

    From Thomas A. Reed's post:
    There is malware (called Flashback) that has been actively taking advantage of Java vulnerabilities on Macs, installing as a drive-by download with no user interaction required when visiting a malicious web site.  Apple's latest Java update patches these vulnerabilities, though it's still possible for that malware to use social exploits to trick you into installing it.  You would do best to turn off Java in your web browser...  you probably won't miss it at all.

    Has anyone had problems with the latest Lexmark printer driver update? My Lexmark printers won't work with the latest driver update. If I reinstall an older version of the drivers, they work.

    Mine crashed once with new update, but working fine.
    I had to delete old printer, restart iMac, and then reinstall
    new drivers to get it to work. Would not complete without
    the restart after deleting non-working printer. No problems
    since and all features working.

  • The latest osx update has caused keychain errors on my macbook pro...what should I do?

    I downloaded and installed the latest osx update last night (10.9.2) and now I'm getting login errors when trying to download emails and keychain errors when using Google Chrome or Safari. I have no idea how to solve the problems caused by this update. My macbook pro is older - 2008. Help, please? Thanks in advance for any assistance you can provide.

    I should have clarified above....."keychain errors", not just login errors. Thanks again.

  • Why is not mt macbook air upgrading the latest lion updates ?, Why is not mt macbook air upgrading the latest lion updates ?

    I have downloaded the latset software updates, but the comp keeps saying it is installing the 2 items, it may take a few minutes, but even after 4 hours, the updates do not happen, the merssage continues as is.
    Please help!

    I think this is a MacBookAir problem...
    Works beautifully on my MacBookPro
    Constantly screws up on my MacBookAir
    Have been on with Apple Support for HOURS on this.
    Have built OSX on separate Hard Drive, and boot from that, STILL flakey at BEST.
    (this TOTALLY clears me from ANY software I have installed)
    I hope they get this resolved...
    My MacBook air was purchased 3 months ago, running Mountain Lion
    My AppleTV is 2nd generation, but have also same problem to 3rd generation i tested.
    DRIVING ME NUTS!
    NOTE!
    SOMETIMES it works to reboot into SAFE mode (hold shift on reboot), go fully into
    your account.  Then reboot normally... if you're lucky it might come back (not all
    the time, but about 50-50%)... give it a shot and let me know how it works for you.

  • If I download the latest OSX update via the App Store, can I choose to do a fresh install instead of an update?

    That's basically the question - since I get a RAM error upon trying to freshly install the OS on my MBP (disc or SD card), I find this to be the last remedy. I already tried switching the RAM. I'd like to sell my device, so I wanna "reset" it. Can I choose to freshly install OSX when downloading the Mountain Lion update?

    That is not a RAM issue. You're trying to boot from a Mac OS X version too old for the computer.

  • My HP scanner/printer scans but my iMac doesn't seem to accept the scans in either iPhoto or Pictures.  I've got os 10.6.8 and all the latest sofware updates for the scanner and for iPhoto.  Helpv

    My Hp printer/scanner C5280 used to work fine with my iMac with OS 10.6 but lately after doing the scan it doesn't seem to finish by putting the scan in either iPhoto or in pictures.  I have all the latest sofware updates for both devices. The scanner does the "preview" scan right away and the copier works fine.  Is there some setting I am overlooking?

    Try using Image Capture, you will find it in your Applications folder. In either IC or the method you are using you can tell the application to scan to a destination. It will look similar to:
    If you still have trouble give AppleCare a call or visit your local Apple Store Genius and they can walk you through it. Your problem may be the at you are not defining anything in the preview to be scanned, you do this by dragging the mouse over the area you want scanned and it will draw a box around it.  Here is a screen shot that show's that.

  • I updated my Torch to the latest software update and it now locks up, resets and is totally unstable...help

    I updated my torch a few days ago and ever since I did it has become so unstable.
    I tried redoing the update numerous times and it is not getting better?
    Phone was working fine prior to update and it now resets and locks up constantly.
    Help .
    I can't use it

    Hello!
    At the top of each device forum, there should be some "sticky" threads that discuss the OS levels available for many models. If they include your model, then please use those as reference as you proceed. Otherwise, you will have to dig through the official download portal for OS packages for your model:
    http://us.blackberry.com/support/downloads/download_sites.jsp
    From a PC, you can install any compatible (e.g., for your exact BB Model Number) OS package to a BB via this procedure:
    http://supportforums.blackberry.com/t5/BlackBerry-Device-Software/How-To-Reload-Your-Operating-Syste...
    Note that while written for "reload" and the Storm, it can be used to upgrade, downgrade, or reload any BB device model -- it all depends on the OS package you download and install to your PC. If that OS package is from a carrier other than the carrier for which your BB was originally manufactured, then delete, on your PC, all copies of VENDOR.XML...there will be at least one, and perhaps 2, and they will be located in or similarly to (it changes based on your Windows version) these folders:
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Research In Motion\AppLoader
    C:\Users\(your Windows UserName)\AppData\Roaming\Research In Motion\BlackBerry\Loader XML
    Be sure that you remove, from your PC, any other BB device OS packages as having more than one installed to the PC can cause conflicts with this procedure.
    You may also want to investigate the use of BBSAK (bbsak.org) to perform the wipe it is capable of.
    You may also want to try this procedure to perhaps narrow down the precise causal item:
    Load your OS "bare bones"...if anything is optional, do not install it.
    If the behavior presents immediately, then try a different OS with step 1
    If the behavior does not immediately present, then run for as long as it takes for you to be sure that the behavior will not present.
    Add one thing -- no matter how tempting, just one.
    If the behavior does not present immediately, then again run for long enough to be sure it will not have the same problem
    Repeat steps 4 and 5 until all things are loaded or the behavior presents
    When the behavior presents, you know the culprit...the last thing you loaded.
    If the behavior does not re-present, then you know that either step 1 or 2 cured it.
    If the behavior presents no matter what, then you likely have a hardware level issue for which no amount of OS or software can cure.
    If you are on MAC, you are limited to only your carriers sanctioned OS packages...but can still use any levels that they currently sanction. See this procedure:

  • I cannot seem to download the latest Lion update (10.7.3).

    Whether through the App Store or the Apple download page, it starts to download, gets a certain way through, and then just stops. In the App Store, after awhile I get a message that Software Update can't connect to the update server. On the Apple.com download page, it just stops downloading. I don't think it's our internet connection, because the update worked just fine for our other iMac (which is older than the one I'm having trouble with).
    Would appreciate any help or suggestions.

  • Latest Lion Update has bricked my ATV2?

    Have just updated my IMac EFI Update 1.8.  It seems to have bricked my connection to my ATV 2.  This has been the only change to my settings since I last used my ATV.  My ATV tells me to check that iTunes is open, that I have allowed home sharing and that both the ATV and iTunes are running on the same wifi network...
    Well yes...  Checked this and re-set both iTunes and the ATV I do not know how many times.  Am now seeing if the ATV is heavy enough to be a paper weight.  All this talk about a high definition Apple TV comming to market suddenly looks ridiculous if our friends at Apple can't get this one right...
    Any advice greatfully received.

    you can restore an appletv2 by connecting it using usb to the computer

  • With the latest software update, when the calendar is improved with holidays, why wasn't Father's Day recognized as a holiday?, With the latest software update, when the calendar is improved with holidays, why wasn't Father's Day recognized as a holiday?

    Why wasn't Father's Day recognized as a holiday on the calendar? It's one day after flag day in June.......REALLY, don't fathers matter at all? I guess the world is like my household, fathers don't matter unless we miss a day of work!

    I had to double check why people would report it missing if it isn't. I just returned from the Apple Store and Father's Day is missing from their iPads running IOS 7.1.1. too. I guess the why will remain one of life's many mysteries.

  • I can't download the latest software update beyond 10.5.8

    I want to purchase the new Lion and magic trackpad, but I can't update my software beyond 10.5.8 and they need the latest Leopard update to get started.
    Any sugestions on how to fix this.

    You would need to purchase the install disks for Snow leopard from Apple or another reseller.
    Do you have an intel Mac?

  • Installation failed (both iLife 11 and the latest software update)

    Hi!
    Today I tried to install the new iLife 11 and update my system again with the latest software update (including the Java fot Mac OS X 10.6 update 3 and ProKit Update). With both installations I get an error message during the installation.
    I have no clue what it is about and how to solve it. I made some screenshots but can't seem to upload them here. The error message is in Dutch, so it might not be correctly translated. I get this error message with the update: 'None of the selected updates could be installed, an unexpected error/mistake has occurred'.
    With the installation I also get an error while trying to install it. This occurs during the installation says it is configuring. After that is says that the installation has failed. 'During the installation some mistakes has occurred. Please start the installation again.'
    I tried rebooting and repairing disc permissions etc.
    How can this be solved?

    Thing is I am not installing anything. I have just rebooted the computer and only started Safari and the software update. That's it...
    Anyone?
