Install now! AirPort driver update just released, no more WiFi drops

Go and update your AirPort drivers now...it will solve the AirPort connection drops.

I should clarify....the update hasn't fixed my Macbook's issues with wireless when operating on battery power alone....(when plugged into mains power it's fine)

  • Duplex printing not working after installing HP Printer Driver Update 1.1.1

    Hi,
    our printers (Lexmark T622, HP Laserjet 2200, both equipped with a duplex unit) are managed by printer queues on our Mac OS X Server (10.5.5). Our users (mostly having Mac Books running 10.5.4 or 10.5.5) are printing by sending their jobs to the queues on the Mac OS X Server (via IPP/TCP/IP).
    So far so good.
    It seems that the users who have installed the "HP Printer Driver Update 1.1.1" aren't able to do duplex-printouts anymore. All sheets that leave the printers are printed on one side only - the "Duplex" setting by these clients is just ignored. Users who haven't installed the update yet, don't have the problem (at least it seems to me like this, but I have to admit that I've tested it with only three different Mac Books, yet).
    My questions are:
    - Has anybody else observed this behaviour, yet?
    - Or, even better, does anybody have a solution to it? Reinstalling the printer on an affected client doesn't solve it. That's what I tried already.
    - Is there any possibility to make the printer driver update "undone", which means to do a kind of downgrade from 1.1.1 to 1.1?
    Thank you very much in advance!
    Best regards,
    Steffen

  • When backing up using the G Drive on using time machine my wife drops the icon into the trash icon on the loading dock.  I told her this was not correct.  Who is right?  Thanks in Advance.

    Folks,
    I found my wife dropping the icon of her backup file into the trash icon on the dock.  She had just completed using Time machine and when to uninstall the Gdrive.  I told her this was an erroneous practice.  She disagreed.  Who is right?
    Thanks in advance.

    Hello, all, my ipod touch is now working. Here's what happened...I called the tech support line and started going through the automated stuff. It started me with the reset which I had done numerous time. It then mentioned trying a different USB port. I figured it was a waste of time, but then I decided what the heck, so I tried the other usb port on the front of my pc. When I did this, it recognized the ipod in ituned and gave me a mssg that it needed to be restored. I clicked on the restore link, and minutes later it gave me an error message on the restore, and the ipod showed the apple on the sreen instead of the itunes logo with the usb cord. I then tried it back in the original usb port, and received the same windows prompt to try to install drivers that I had been getting all along. I put it back in the second USB port, and got the restore message again with it being recognized in itunes. This time it successfully completed the restore. I know it sounds simple, but if you have not tried a different USB port, be sure you do. Maybe the download jacked up my USB port? Anyway, I'm working again with the 2.2.1 download. Good luck to all!!

  • 9.0.2 update just released, fixing audio sync problems.

    Just ran a quick test, looks like it's fixed! Thanks Apple!

    It worked for me perfectly! That saves me a lot of frustration after putting a lot of time in editing a project. Great to see it export now and the audio is synced! Yeah! Thanks Apple!

  • Aperture Update Just Released

    Just downloaded an Aperture update to fix the tint, and other bug issues. 

    Hi there!
    Yes, same problem too; I've already sent an email to apple support and just received a very vague and unpractical response with "call apple support in your country" as main advice. I've obviously emailed back stating that I need a clearer response and I don not have any intention to spend money calling for support when updates is a free tool. I do also believe this is a probem generated on Apple's end, I just wish they learned to say "sorry, it's us;  working on it!"

  • Just installed the latest Yosemite update and though I hv wifi connectivity, I can't connect to the App store or Dropbox.  Any solutions?

    I've got wifi, but got error messages that say that there's no internet connection when I try to connect to the App Store.  Also, Dropbox has the same issues with not being able to connect.  ???

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    Step 1
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
    Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
    While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your documents or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this behavior; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
    Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
    After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
    *Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
    Step 2
    The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
    Please take this step regardless of the results of Step 1.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or earlier, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of Steps 1 and 2.

  • 2.1 3G update just a "show more bars" change?

    I'm STILL getting failed calls. I make or take a call and can get 4 words in before the call fails. Yeah, my bars now show 4 full bars, all the time...
    I'm starting to think maybe just the graphical part of the bars and 3G was changed, not the actual problem.
    Once again, I'm back on Edge just to be able to use the phone.
    anyone else STILL getting dropped calls?

    pretty much what I do. At home, work or friends' house I'm on WiFi... Edge for phone.
    Is there any truth to the first iPhone 3Gs that people stood in line for have the issue and the newer build dates are better? I heard some people were getting there older build dated iPhones exchanged for newer ones and weren't having the problems...

  • Problems after installing Airport Extreme Update 2008-001

    ever since I installed the Airport Extreme update 2008-001 my internet connection has been dropping and it's so frustrating. I normally wait and don't install updates immediately after they are released. I installed this one and now my internet connection keeps dropping.
    Anyone have any suggestions??

    Same scenario here, though I'm running 10.4.9. on a Mac Pro. I've tried every known fix, but Safari still stalls every few minutes - taking upwards of a minute to continue loading whatever page I was browsing to.
    Other apps, including Mail, Firefox, and Remote Desktop screen sharing aren't affected - I can ping away without issue while Safari is choking, and there is no unusual Safari CPU consumption in Activity Monitor

  • IPhone status is Updated just now but a lot of images are grey placeholders

    Good part: I have a big library (~50K photos and ~1K videos). Switched to iCloud Photos on all my macs, work ok, took several days to upload everything but look good.
    Bad part: on my iPhone I also enabled iCloud Photos Library (optimized storage), for some time it was showing "Preparing...",  then "Downloading..." but now it says "Updated just now", like it's done. But the problem is that a lot of images are just grey placeholders and convert to an image only when I open specific Moment and wait there. Also, the phone shows spinner at the top all the time, like it's downloading something. And the things spinning both in Wi-Fi and  LTE.
    It looks like the Photos app on iPhones continues downloading, while system preferences status says it's all good.
    This is how it looks, to make it clear - status is "Updated just now", but there are a lot of empty placeholders.
    Any comments?

    If add-ons are so important to you, remember to check for add-on compatibility before upgrading. (See image below)
    Bookmark your add-ons pages (addons.mozilla.org) and check their compatibility before upgrading Firefox.
    The other option is to [[Install an older version of Firefox]] compatible with your add-ons.
    Also read:
    * [[Re-enable add-ons that were disabled when updating Firefox]]
    * [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/update-firefox-latest-version?esab=a&s=configure+update&r=2&as=s#w_how-do-i-configure-update-20optionssf21preferencessf How do I configure update options?]
    Keep in mind that other browsers have updates too, which may or may not break their add-on compatibility.

  • Problems with install "Super Drive Update 3.0"

    Hi!
    I cannot install the "Super Drive Update 3.0" on my MacBook Pro 15´. Everytime I want to install it, I recive the massage, that the update was not successfull, I should try to close all programms and try it agin, otherwise I should contact the apple support. The MacBook is from 2009, therefore I place my question to this forum.
    I´m running Snow Leopard version 10.6.8, and have installed all updates (without the Super Drive Update 3.0). I´ve also checked I´ve the update is necessary. It is.
    Here are some more informations about my Super Drive:
      Modell:    MATSHITADVD-R   UJ-868                 
      Version:    KA19   
      Seriennummer:                dE12ACF4
      Native Command Queuing:    Nein
      Absteckbares Laufwerk:    Nein
      Ausschalten:    Ja
      Async Notification:    Nein
    I hope somone of you could help me. Thank you!

    @ AussieDJ
    Thank you for the fast reply. The second link includes the solution. I takes me abou 2,5 hours to make this, but it works. Thank you for help!
    @ Apple
    There is a mistake in the description. After I installed Mac OSX on the external device, I have to make an update of the software. Otherwise it is not possible to install the "Super Drive Update 3.0". Please correct for other users.

  • Airport client Update  2009-02 buggy?10++min system start, OS bogged  down

    I installed the Airport Client update a little over a week ago via Software Update. Since then I've had intermittent problems with the airport connection being dropped, but a larger problem is that the system (especially Safari) seems to slow down to the point that I have to force quit programs and reboot. The reboot brings up white screen with the grey apple and a progress bar - AND it takes between 10 and 15 minutes for the OS to load.
    This massive time to boot started when the Airport client update was installed and happens now to my iMac on every startup.
    3 days before the Airpot update there was also a Java update. I'd love to know what the problem is - it's more than a minor nuisance . I also notice that I can hear the the hard drive running nonstop the same time the system is freezing up. This seems to be at it's worst when the screen saver has been running for a while.

    Sorry if I missed it...which of your computers is acting up?
    Did you update via Software Update or did you download the combo? If you used Software Update, get the Combo updater instead and re-apply:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/DL959
    As well, try resetting some of the hardware involved (PRAM~NVRAM). See this Apple KB for details, etc.:
