Incompatible Security and Connection time out

Ok, since installing leopard, I have not been able to connect to the stronger of my two wireless connections. The weak on, which is WPA connects fine, when I can get a strong enough signal. The second, WEP (I know, people say it's weak, but thats what I have.) But the password I put in, and it is the correct password, keeps saying that it is the wrong password when I do the "assist me" option.
When I just try to connect using the drop down menu on the airport icon, it says "incompatible security" and once in a while, it will say "connection time out".
I did a search, but none of the solutions here have worked. Any help would be greatly appreciated, because as a student I need the wireless connection for homework purposes, and I cant tolerate a weak connection.
Please help

Hi.
I can't connect to WEP networks either with Leopard 10.5.1.
It just says "incompatible Security". I've tried it for one hour without any luck.
Why doesn't Apple realize that there are millions of WEP encrypted networks out there and that it is essential to be able to connect to them. (it worked with Tiger, didn't it?)
Is there a knowledge base article out there what to do about it?
I just can't walk to hotel managers and ask them to switch to WPA, especially if they don't have a clue how to do that and older windows computers won't be able to connect any more.
Why a transparent menu bar but no way to connect to WEP networks?
I'm very disappointed. Apple, fix this! (now!)
Is there actually a way to get your money back for Leopard if this basic things don't work anymore?
Thank you for any help.

OLAP over HTTP resulting in 503 status code and connection time out

Hi,
I set up my OLAP over HTTP with msmdpump.dll and set up the .ini file accordingly. The connections are fine,
however on my site when i make a lot of request to the OLAP, I get a 503 HTTP status code andconnection time
out in th event log.
I have change the #of threads on the .ini file for
msmdpump.dll. Also changed the initialconnectiontimeout in sql ini file from 10 to 15.
In my OLAP instance in sql studio, under datasources I made adjustments from forums but that did not affect.
in all instances i restarted the machine.
NOt sure where to look further and how i can diagnose what the issue is. Looking for any assistance to help me
resolve my issue.

Hi,
we also had some problems after we made some Stresstests on the AS with many connections.
First we raised the Queue Length and the worker processes in the Application Pool.
Worked, but the recommendation was to do this at the last step.
So we changed the following entries in the ini of the Datapump:
<MinThreadPoolSize>60</MinThreadPoolSize>
<MaxThreadPoolSize>200</MaxThreadPoolSize>
<MaxThreadsPerClient>20</MaxThreadsPerClient>

Getting Connection Time out while connecting and with tnsping

Hello Experts,

Could you guys please help me out here?
Thanks.

That tnsping error indicates several possible problems, most related to the setup for the client. Or network setup on the database server host.
Connecting to a database using sqlnet requires three things, the database host, the listener port, and the ORACLE_SID or instance SERVICE_NAME.
The tnsping utility is only concerned with the first two items, host and port. It will not perform an actual connection, and will not verify the tnsalias ORACLE_SID or SERVICE_NAME values.
An "OK" result from tnsping verifies that the specified host has a listener running at the specified port and it is servicing connections.
Since you're not getting an "OK" from tnsping, could be something is blocking the connection (i.e. firewall), the host= specification is not correct, or the port= spec is not correct. Note that host= must either be a valid and correct hostname, or a an IPv4 address. If IPv6 is in the mix, only the correct hostname will work. A hostname that resolves correctly.
Look at your network interface setup on the host, find its IP address, make sure the IP will `ping`, and try a new sqlnet.ora entry with the IPv4 address.
ifconfig -a
<interface>: flags=...
inet n.n.n.n
# in sqlnet.ora:
xe2 = ... host=n.n.n.n ...
tnsping xe2

Connection time out issue with wep security

Does anyone know what is causing connection time out when connecting to WEP network.
Password is correct.
$ and x0 in front don't work.
A solution would be great.
Thanks

Hello freestyleadamski. Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
o The MacBooks back until late 2006 can handle 802.11n/a/b/g
o The late 2006 MacBooks will require the "n"-enabler to support the same.
o The mid-2006 MacBooks will only support 802.11b/g
o The iPod Touch will only support 802.11b/g
Which radio mode should I be using so I can connect my macbooks (I have one and my wife, hers is slightly older) and our ipod touch?
In order of most to least recommended: 802.11n (802.11b/g compatible), 802.11g only, 802.11b/g compatible, & 802.11b only.

BPC: SOA and setting connection time outs in BPC

Hi All,
can any one explain SOA architecture of BCP and how it improves performance?
My understanding of SOA arcitecture is it breaks down large application into small modules called services.
Here what are the services it is refering to?
And in SOA arcitecture, is the client connected to server only when it requests for a service and connection terminates after the service is provided?
If that is the case, what is the need for setting connection time outs to improve BPC performance.
Any Help is Greatly appreciated.

SOA = services oriented architecture
is a method for systems development and integration where functionality is grouped around business processes and packaged as interoperable services. SOA also describes IT infrastructure which allows different applications to exchange data with one another as they participate in business processes. The aim is a loose coupling of services with operating systems, programming languages and other technologies which underlie applications.[1] SOA separates functions into distinct units, or services[2], which are made accessible over a network in order that they can be combined and reused in the production of business applications.[3] These services communicate with each other by passing data from one service to another, or by coordinating an activity between two or more services. SOA concepts are often seen as built upon, and evolving from older concepts of distributed computing[3][2] and modular programming.
So SOA is not implemented for performances reason and it is more for integration.

I am using itunes 10.5. Update didnt work on last software but restore did work. Help

After two days of attempts, Google & Apple searches, one Apple post stated to turn off all firewalls and virus software and keep trying since there were 6 gazillion people trying to update. I have Windows 7 & Kaspersky and had to diable every single safety feature in Kaspersky as well as Firewalls and it finally allowed the download and update attempt.
Glancing at the forum, there appears to be numerous other problems with missing pictures, text problems etc after the IOS5 download but fortuneately, everything seems ok so far. Good luck, it is frustrating! Hattie47

My Mac book pro keeps saying "connection time out occurred" I have a 2011 pro with all the latest updates. It keeps doing it and it really annoys me! Please help!

Take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried, until the problem is resolved.
Step 1
Restart the router. Many problems are solved that way.
Step 2
Change the name of the wireless network, if applicable, to eliminate any characters other than letters and digits. You do that on your router via its web page, if it's not an Apple device, or via AirPort Utility, if it is an Apple device.
Step 3
From the menu bar, select
 ▹ System Preferences... ▹ Network
Click the Assist me button and select Assistant. Follow the prompts.
Step 4
Back up all data.
Launch the Keychain Access application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Keychain Access in the icon grid.
Enter the name of your wireless network in the search box. You should have one or more "AirPort network password" items with that name. Make a note of the name and password, then delete all the items. Quit Keychain Access. Turn Wi-Fi off and then back on. Reconnect to the network.
Step 5
You may need to change other settings on the router. See the guidelines linked below:
Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
Potential sources of interference
Step 6
Make a note of all your settings for Wi-Fi in the Network preference pane, then delete the connection from the connection list and recreate it with the same settings. You do this by clicking the plus-sign icon below the connection list, and selecting Wi-Fi as the interface in the sheet that opens. Select Join other network from the Network Name menu, then select your network. Enter the password when prompted and save it in the keychain.

Itunes update to firmware fails, because connection times out.

I have been unsuccessfully attempting to update my iphone 3gs and ipad to iOS 5 for over a month now. I have spent many, many hours on this, and many phone calls to apple support. I disable Norton 360, and windows firewall, and my firewall on my router. I've tried updating my router's firmware, which bricked the router--thanks apple for insisting this was the problem, and I have replaced the router, with a new one. Itunes diagnostics gives me the following information. I am using itunes as the administrator in Windows 7, 64 bit, although itunes doesn't recognize it, unless I reinstall it as the administrator, but then once I restart the computer, itunes no longer recognizes that I using Windows as an admin.
Also, the firmware cannot update, because the connection times out, despite all my firewalls, and antivirus being turned off.
I've tried downloading iOS 5 and then updating using restore, but that didn't work. I've poured through support forums, and error codes: I get 1611, etc. Cannot seem to resolve this.
Any ideas?

Upgrading iOS 4.0 to 4.1 (Connection time out error)

Hello any help will be highly appreciated..
I currently have a 3rd gen iPod Touch 32gb, with iOS 4.0.2 installed and working perfectly. I am now pestered to download and update to the newest version 4.1 every time I sync my iPod, which I have no problem doing..
Problem is every time I agree to download this update iTunes downloads the update then when it has just finished downloading (remains in the "downloads" in itunes folder) appears that it is processing the download, after about 4 minutes of it finsihing downloading and appearing to be processing it gives me an error saying there is a connection time out issue, to check my internet connection and try again.
I have tried at least 1 dozen,or more times to do this. It has done the same thing every time.
It won't let me restore my iPod because when i try to do so it asks me to "Update and Restore" which it cant update! so its pretty frustrating.
The iPod works fine no problems, it just comes to when trying to download this update.
Is there anything I can do? Would I be able to try and update it on another computer?
Thank you for any assistance, im just sick of seeing the "a new ipod update is a vailable, download now?" pop-up every time I plug in the iPod.

Hello!
Been encountering the same problem for two days, drove me crazy! Tried everything, including disabling the firewall and antivirus but nothing worked, so here is what worked with me:
*If you use Internet Explorer, do the following:*
*First close iTunes then go to Internet Explorer > Tools > Internet Options > Advanced Tab and then scroll until you get to the ''Security'' section, uncheck the box that says: Check for server certificate revocation* and now launch iTunes and try again.* Hope this works for you as well!

Cannot connect to WIFI - 'connection time out occured' but also says 'no ip address'

Hi,
I've searched the web and found endless issues with the wifi router / etc of the Imac Lion system. On the same wifi network we have a mac book (leopard I think), a pc laptop (which I am using now) and 2 phones + my brand new Imac with Lion osx. The first 4 items all connect with no problems.
I tried some of the sollutions here but it even made it worse as I now not have any connection at all!
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4628
When I try to connect trhough systems preferences/network I get the message that my password is incorrect and that there is no IP address. Password is definitely correct. When I try to connect from the symbol in the right top corner - I get the message 'connection time out occured'
I am a bit of a Mac dummy ... any help is really appreciated.
Thanks
Billie

Hi BDAqua,
Thanks a lot for getting back to me.
Not so sure what your first questions means - or how to check this?
I tried joining other Wi-Fi network:
If I choose security 'WPA Personal' i get the message: connection time out
If I choose security 'WPA2 Personal' or 'WEP' i get the message@ no network found
hmmmm any suggestions? Thanks so much
Billie

Remote Desktop Connection Times Out With "Can't Connect" From One Specific Computer Only

This is an odd one... I manage several servers from this computer. This particular server, 2012 Essentials, won't allow for remote desktop connections to either the server or attached workstations. I can get into the server's remote web page but when I
attempt a remote desktop connection, it hangs on "Initiating remote connection..." and then times out with the error response that remote desktop can't connect. But... if I attempt the same connections from any other computer, I am able to get in
and utilize remote desktop. Does this mean that there is a certificate issue with the computer unable to connect and if so, how does one remedy this? Or is it some other issue? I've attempted everything within my technical ability to no avail. Any suggestions
are greatly appreciated.

Hi,
Before going further, would you please let me know the RDC version that used in the problematic computer? Was it the same with other computers?
Please temporarily disable firewall and then check if this issue can be solved. Based on your current description, it’s hard to say the root reason of this issue.
So, I suggest that you should check relevant log files and get some clues. It will help us to narrow down and solve your issue.
Hope this helps.
Best regards,
Justin Gu

Message Mapping - connection time out

Hi ,
I hae just created a message mapping and when I click on Test tab and load a payload in source and try to test the mapping , it gives me connection time out error from java...
What could be wrong ? Mapping involves an XML to IDOC .
Cheers,

Hello,
I think so (Experts, please correct me if I'm wrong). Before, we had a scenario in which the external definition was about 960kb. It really did post issues when testing in the message mapping itself. There are three options:
a.) Use less detail in your sample message mapping, in this way you can correct the error in the mapping itself.
or
b.) Test in operation mapping, and then do the correction in message mapping afterwards. If the testing is successful, make sure that you don't click the drop down icon. Instead, export the result as a zip file and then extract it. (if this hangs, go for c)
or
c.) Test at runtime
Hope this helps,
Mark

What is the url of the file your are downloading?
What web browser are you using?
What type of connection do you have to your isp? phone line, dsl, cable, fios...
Try iCab. It lets you restart a download.
