Internet Connect comes up too soon - fix?

Whenever I restart (using Airport)Internet Connect software comes on before top title bar is loaded, so sees no connection. How to stop it loading too soon. I'm not sure that is problem. I've gone into Airport top menu, open Internet connect and have checked to "remember password in keychain" and it doesn't. I also have opened Airport Utility, and manually put in settings to remember password, but nothing works. I have to keep going into that airport menu top title bar, chooose my network and enter my password.
-How to keep password there?
-How to stop airport connect popping open before whole desktop is loaded, maybe that's problem?
-?Any other ideas? Thanks!

BD: I went back to terminal (copy/paste your words)to not show hidden files, now all of a sudden I have several new items on my desktop, and some I'm not sure are safe to remove, as looks like items that were in finder, and now are on desktop. Do you know why, and if safe to remove the following:
Network (rt click choice to "eject" -but hope this won't messup network settings; no "move to trash" avail)
.localized (can rt click to "move to trash, but will it harm anything?)
.DS_Store ( can rt click to "move to trash, but will it harm anything?)
...and even icon showing my FileVault-ed home folder!(the only real rt-click choice for this is "force quit" and I hope it won't mess up all to do that!)
PLEASE tell me if it's safe to do what the choices are, and if you know why this happened ..ie: what part of that script I put in for: showing hidden files, then reverting to hiding hidden files, caused this to happen?
THANKS AHEAD for HELP!

  • Ever since I installed Lion my internet connection comes and goes, has anyone else had the same experience. have rung Apple Care and they have reset my connection but it is still happening

    ever since I installed Lion my internet connection comes and goes....have reported this to Apple Care who have helped me reset my connection but it is still happening...cant believe it is a fault of the ISP as my Iphone does not have this problem, nor does my PC laptop...is this a fault in the new system?

    Thanks so much but none of that helped.  It was driving me crazy because it would back up another external drive.  I just changed the name of the drive from iPhoto/iTunes Library to Media Libraries and IT WORKED!! I guess for some reason it didn't like the drive being called iPhoto or iTunes ???? I don't understand but I have tried so many solutions and exchanging things out but the name change did it????!!!
    Thank you for your help and replying to this.  Guess I made my own issue!

  • Internet connection comes and goes

    My Macbook is hooked up to my husbands wireless network and used to go through the Time Machine but he had problems with it so he took it off the network. Now my internet connection comes and goes every 5 to 10 minutes - it loses connection and then finds it again.
    My husband (the computer expert in the house) doesnt really care so it is up to me to figure out what is wrong. Can anyone help me?

    I think by "Time Machine" you actually mean "Time Capsule"--TC is the hardware, TM is the software the does the backups to the hardware.
    As for your problem: If the Time Capsule is "off the network," as you suggest, how is your husband connecting to the internet? What kind of computer does he have? More information is better here, to help us solve your problem--the wires come into the house and then what?
    It kind of sounds like you might be describing "Internet Sharing":

    Does any of that look familiar to you?

  • I reset my iPhone 4 Network settings to fix the push notification problem, but I lost my internet connection. How do I fix it?

    I tried to solve the "connect to iTunes to receive push notifications"-problem by resetting my network settings, but it only caused me to lose my internet connection when using 3G. Now I can't do anything with this stupid phone. How do I fix it? I don't want to reset anything anymore, I'm sick of this new iOs update, it seriously messed up my phone and I can't do anything properly anymore. Any help?
    And btw, I would also like to get the push notifications back on. Connecting to iTunes did absolutely nothing. Resetting the network settings only made my situation worse. Help please!

    Hi there Julia,
    Ahh The iPhone isn't "stupid" it's been called "stupid" because you are frustrated at the situation , but try
    Load iTunes. Backup your phone. Make sure it is backed up !! Run restore. This will get rid of the error! And please what ever you do , do not skip the back up!
    Thanks,

  • Time Capsule Updates destroys my internet connectivity. How do I fix this?

    When I update on my time capsule, which happens rather frequently, my internet connectivity slows down considerably. Would deleting backup files on the TC make my internet quicker, is there any way to make my tc update less frequently (like twice a day) or anything else you recommend.
    If so, how do you do this.
    Thanks a bunch.

    When you say "update on my time capsule", do you mean "have Time Machine write backup files from my computer to my Time Capsule"?
    If so, a Time Machine backup can involve some fairly intense network activity, so I'm not surprised your network slows down during that time. It should only be happening once an hour. There are third-party utilities that can alter that schedule. Try this one:

  • In Windows 8, after connecting to VPN - Wireless datacard connection disconnects. Once i disconnect VPN, 3G datacard internet connection comes back.. Any idea

    Not able to access my remote machine using VPN in Windows 8.
    VPN connected successfully resulting internet  disconnection .
    I am using Wireless 3G datacard device for internet.
    But the same VPN connection is working fine in WIFI & I able to access remote machine. Not sure why the problem when connecting from device.
    Plz help me out guys.
    Thanks in Advance

    What kind of VPN client are you using? You can try the following suggestion for a test.
    1) Get into VPN Properties
    2) Select "Security" tab
    3) Click "Allow these protocols" radio button and check the "Microsoft CHAP Version 2 (MS-CHAP v2)" box
    4) Select Networking Tab; select "Internet Protocol Version 4 (TCP/IPv4)" and click "Properties"
    5) Click "Advanced"
    6) Uncheck box for "Use default gateway on remote network"

  • "store online" says "no internet connection to server" how to fix?

    Am logged in? Want to put form on the web and get the url for the form. How to do that?

    Hi;
    I am assuming you are using the Desktop application included with Adobe Acrobat Professional XI.
    I can give you a few things to try:
    Try exiting out of the application and then launch and sign back in again, server connection problems can be difficult to diagnose but are often fixed by restarting things.  Are you inside of a firewall at a company that might block some ports or types of traffic?
    Also, you can try to "repair" the application following these steps:
    FIRST, Close FormsCentral for Acrobat desktop application
    If you are on a windows machine, open a Command Prompt window and type : "C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Acrobat 11.0\FormsCentral\FormsCentralForAcrobat.exe" -repair
    If you are on a mac machine, open a Terminal window and type : /Applications/Adobe\ Acrobat\ XI\ Pro/FormsCentral\ For\ Acrobat.app/Contents/MacOS/Adobe\ FormsCentral -repair
    This should launch FormsCentral for Acrobat (if it doesn't then launch the application manually)
    In FormsCentral For Acrobat go to Help > Check for Updates...
    Choose "Update now and restart the application". Then click "OK". Then click "Restart".
    This should close and reopen the application (if it doesn't relaunch automatically then launch the application manually)
    And - one sure method to at least get your form online is:
    Export Design file from the "local" form in the Desktop application, open the form and from the File menu choose "Export Design File" and note where you save this file
    Sign into FormsCentral in a web browser and "Import Design File" from the File menu when you are viewing your "My Forms" tab and locate the Design file you exported in step 1
    Thanks,

  • IMac 500 mhz powerpc G3 - Internet connection slow, how do I fix?

    So here it goes, I am pretty much a clueless newbie as far as the computer goes. But I have this much worked out. I am running a iMac G3 500 mhz powerPC (Thanks!, about this mac) with 512 kb of L2 cache, 100 mhz bus speed and 128 MB SDRAM on OS 10.3.9, and I have a wireless card installed that has firmware version 9.52, which I am using to connect to the internet through an apple airport, connected to a Motorola Surfboard SB5120 Cable modem.
    Now when I am on the iMac the internet feels like dial up, I can literally stop to read magazine articles while I wait for the internet to load pages. But on the other computer a g4 apple powerbook (silver), it is quick and snappy. Both of these computers use the same airport and modem to connect.
    What Can I do to the iMac to bring the speed up?

    Tom's right. a G3 is a G3... but bump that RAM up even to 384 would be better. You "could" go up to 1GB, but it's up to you to decide the cost effectiveness of that. At OWC to could get 2x256 for about about $50 or 2x512 for for about $140... so the difference is pretty big. But I know the pricing is pretty competitve and you might find the 512's cheaper.
    Good luck!

  • I have iphone 4 os 7.04, tried updating to 7.1, but continously shows error that I dont have working internet connection, though I have one and tried via wifi and 3g same error comes. The update has been downloaded, agree pressed but no further??

    I have iphone 4 os 7.04, tried updating to 7.1, but continously shows error that I dont have working internet connection, though I have one and tried via wifi and 3g same error comes. The update has been downloaded, the page shping license agreement comes. As soon as I press agree, it asks me to wait for verification and then this error that there is no working internet connection comes, even though I have one and it works fine

    Try these steps as needed:
    Reset phone: press both the home and power buttons, releasing when the Apple logo appears
    Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings.  You will have to re-enter WiFi passwords
    Connect phone to iTunes on your computer and update using iTunes

  • Using the mac mini with a dial up internet connection

    How do I go about using my mac mini with a dial up internet connection? I am soon to be moving to a rural area and dial up will be my only internet option. Please be very specific in your answer as I am not a very tech savvy fellow. Thank you for your help.

    The last time I needed to use dial up I used this amazing device from actiontec:
    http://shopping.netsuite.com/s.nl/c.ACCT122499/it.A/id.72/.f
    Very hard to find one now, but it has the advantage that it connects to the ethernet ports of up to two computers, rather than using a less reliable usb connection.

  • Internet connection lost when the phone is used

    Have had BT internet for well over a year with no problems, but over the last few days I have experienced problems with losing the internet connection.  I have now pinpointed it to the fact that as soon as the phone is used (receiving or making a call) the internet connection is lost.  Once the phone call is finished, it can take up to a minute before the internet connection comes back (ie. the Broadband sign on the hub is yellow while there is a problem, but after a minute or so after the call is finished it turns blue again).  Anyone have any ideas what could be causing this?  There has been no recent changes to hardware or equipment that could be the cause of this.
    Thanks :-)

    Probably a line fault, however you need to check that the fault is still present when you plug everything into the master socket, just to prove there is no problem on your internal wiring.
    There are some useful help pages here, for BT Broadband customers only, on my personal website.
