There was an error joining the Airport network

Re: error joining the Airport Network
My wife and I bought two new Macbooks at Best Buy on December 28, 2006. On the first day, I set them both up to work with our 2WIRE wireless router, and they both worked flawlessly.
However, on January 27, 2007, my wife started her MacBook, tried to select the wireless router in the Airport drop down menu (like she always has done before with no problem), and received the following error message:
"There was an error joining the Airport network "2WIRE229"
After several unsuccessful attempts to fix this problem by restarting and reconnecting, I did some research on the internet and came across the following discussions from other people who have experienced exactly the same problem:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=3815739

I am having the same problem. I have an access point in my living room and a homework desk in my bedroom. My desk is maybe thirty feet from the access point through one wall. The desk does sit in front of a window. When I try to use my PowerBook at my homework desk I can, intermittently, pick up three access points: mine and two others. The two others are on the same channel as each other, but that should not be interfering with my access point and certainly shouldn't be causing it to disappear from the list all together.
Hoping that my signal just wasn't reaching well enough (the antenna on the AP was not very prominent) I bought a 6dBi antenna for it. My PowerBook has always worked in the living room and certainly works there now. I do get a much stronger signal in my bedroom but I still can't use the laptop on my homework desk.
What doesn't make any sense in all of this is that the wall in my room with the window is the same wall in the living room where there is a large sliding glass door. So, if the interfering signal is coming from outside it should be affecting the living room as well. I am at my wits end on this one.

There was an error joining the airport network "2WIRE532"

I just got my mac back from getting fixed for harddrive problems and now I'm trying to connect to the internet. Before I'd have some problems with losing connectivity but I always could connect. Now as I'm trying to connect to my wireless access point under the list of airport networks, it literally, right after I type in the WEP password, gives me the error message There was an error joining the airport network "2WIRE532". It looks like it doesn't even try to connect as fast as it does it. I need to know what's happening, I really want this mac mini networked to my network on my windows xp os computer.

I'm having the same problem. The only thing that was different was that we installed a new update from Apple for Quicktime.... then the next day it kept asking for a password (it didn't before) and then when it was entered, it gave me the same error message just a different network name.

There was an error joining the Airport network with WEP or WPA

I use a wireless adsl modem router (Philips). I can only connect via wireless to this router without encryption.
As soon as I use WEP or WPA encryption, I get the error message "There was an error joining the Airport network".
Thank you for any suggestion.

Here are some articles that may help you:

Do not overlook the possibility that the router itself may be incompatible or may require a firmware update to work properly. You should configure the router to use WPA2, preferably, as this is the most compatible form of encryption with Airports.

There was an error joining the Airport network "NameOfTheNetwork"

Hi there
I am French in London for an internship. I took a flat to share with an other girl. My father advised me to take a Mac for my specific utilisation (internet, music, movies...) and Macs are so cool exept for internet in my case. It doesn't work at all. The network of my landlord is hidden. So, I go in "other", I type manually the network name and the WEP password... Always the same message : There was an error joining the Airport network "NameOfTheNetwork". I tried several times with always the unlucky result.
My landlord said that there wasn't this kind of problem with her other flatmates before me...
I am pratically sure that the problem doesn't comme from my Mac because I reached to join an unprotected other network which appear sometimes (but the signal is not enought strong).
Is there an incompatibility between my Mac and the setup Network? And what do I have to to do to fix it?
I visited a lot of forums but :
1-I didn't find any topics on my specific problem
2-There explanations (when the topic is closed to my issue) are not clear and seem not to correspond to my issue.
Is there someone who can help me please? I really need internet!!!!!
Emma

This confirms it is a WEP issue.
You will need to find the HEX key.
One of the problems with WEP is that the actual standard relies on a 10 character HEX key for 40bit WEP and a 26 character HEX key for 128bit WEP.
In order to make things easier for people, vendors use certain algorithms to convert simple alphanumeric passwords (or passphrases) into HEX keys, thus enabling people to use simple memorable WEP password rather than lengthy HEX keys.
The problem is that different vendors use different algorithms to generate the HEX key and therefore a ASCII password on an AEBS will be hashed differently on a Netgear client and vice versa.
One thing is a 13 character 128 bit WEP password will be hashed by all vendors in the same way (if you use 40bit WEP then a 5 character password is required).
Though sometimes not even that works and the HEX key must be used regardless.

I checked for the IP address, and I'm not pulling one
up.
That's the problem. Even with no base stations available you should eventually within a few minutes get a self-assigned IP of 169.x.x.x!
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106659
Maybe you could manually configure an IP but that doesn't answer what's wrong. How about a simple test - create a new Location in Network System Preferences and see if that helps. If it doesn't then maybe a re-install of Airport or System software would help. If the Airport shows up as an available network port then the card is probably OK.

Why can't I connect to WiFi when asked for a password
Judging from what you wrote, because there is something wrong with the settings or the password or passphrase. Make sure all devices use the same type of encryption, and make sure you enter the correct password. WRT to this, read

Is there a way for preventing the placeholder from appearing if there is not content for it?

I am creating a structure with tags and place holders. However, not all my entries have all the same information. For example, my first entry has a 3 line address (123 West Street, Suit 23, Lincoln NE 68521) but my second entry only has 2 line address (456 North Street, Lincoln NE 68521). When imported into my structure, the second address reads 456 North Street, <address2>, Lincoln NE 68521. My question for you is, is there a way for preventing the placeholder from appearing if there is not content for it?

IJWAA,
A work-around if you don't already use XSLT (to avoid having to) is to not have placeholder text, just use empty tags in your text layout that correspond to your incoming XML structure (any unused by the incoming structure IN ORDER, will be skipped). So long as you don't mind the blank line (rather than left over placeholder copy).
If you had placeholder copy in your text box (<address2> for example) look at it using the story editor window (edit > edit in story editor, or command-y/control-y) so you can see the surrounding tags... style the surrounding tags by selecting them with the cursor and applying character or paragraph styles (with text in between the tags at the time) and then delete only the placeholder text from the middle of the sandwich, leaving the tags in tact. Trying to do this without being in the story editor will not work.
Also, when importing the XML, I believe you'll still need to use "merge content" and "don't import empty white space" as you have been in order to replace placeholder text in any areas you had it.
For situations when you have a mixture of dynamic and static text in the same text block and you are merging data (more so when the placeholder text has been deleted as I've suggested above but the dynamic tags for the possible incoming text are still there), you can use a tag you've created (I call mine "staticText") in your layout to wrap ANY bits of text you don't want to accidentally delete when the surrounding tags get populated or not, using the merge option upon importing your XML. Just be sure never to use "staticText" as an actual tag in your structure or surrounding incoming data. The text contained within staticText tags in your layout will be ignored by incoming data, and won't accidentally get deleted when it's sandwiched between two sets of tags that are dynamically populated when merge content is the import option.
In my example below I'm using brackets/carats with the tag name instead of the color coded tag icon you see in the story editor, also I've used LB here to indicate a regular line break in Indesign and SP a regular space character in indesign:
[staticText>Name:<staticText][firstName>Abc<firstName][staticText>SP<staticText][lastName>Xyz<firstName][staticText>LB<staticText]
[staticText>Address:<staticText][address1><address1][staticText>LB<staticText]
[address2><address2][staticText>LB<staticText]
all other tags on following lines...
This should just leave a blank line for address2 when no data comes in for it. I'm assuming you have line breaks, if not, all the better.

What are you planning on doing with the build? If you will be overclocking, the gd 65 or 80 are recommended. The biggest differences are the Thunderbolt on the gd 80 and extra bios options and flexibility in overclocking.

HT1688 Is there any App for blocking the International calls on my phone?

Is there any App for blocking the International calls on my phone?

No.
For security reasons, 3rd party apps don't have access to private iPhone APIs which such an app would require.
You want to stop being able to place such calls or stop receiving such calls?
If the latter, try stopping it at the source by contacting your carrier.

Is there aoss on an airport extreme? I thought there was some way via the Airport Utility?

is there aoss on an airport extreme? I thought there was some way via the Airport Utility.

Nothing called "aoss" is on an AirPort Extreme.
Using the Add Wireless Clients feature under the Base Station menu (top of screen) in AirPort Utility - Manual Setup, there are provisions to add a new wireless client using a PIN or allowing the device to connect on "First Attempt".
Whether this is compatible with "aoss", I cannot say. Please let us know about your findings if you try this.

The step-by-step guide for installing the Oracle Database and Oracle9iAS Portal

All,
I made a step-by-step guide for installing the Oracle 8.1.7 database and Oracle9iAS 1.0.2.1 (HTTP Only) install on a 'clean' Windows 2000 machine. The guide has a screen shot of every single step that I went through to get an installation of the database and Oracle9iAS Portal to work.
Because I left my email in the guide, everyone will be sending me email with questions about their particular install. [What I really wanted was some positive feedback email to show to my manager... hint hint.] As I do not want to troubleshoot everyone's install by email, I started this thread.
Let's start the step-by-step install guide discussion here.
As a start, here is what I did NOT want to do with the guide: I did not want to 'redo' the current Oracle9iAS installation guide. So I did not put any conditions in the guide. This is just what I had to do to take a clean Windows2000 machine (no Oracle software on it) and get it to work. If I keep on adding conditions, eventually I will end up with the installation document.
Also, in the next version (for the Oracle9iAS 1.0.2.2) I will probably start over again from scratch as we are planning on addressing some of the issues with the install.
Another thing I plan to do is put the following direct links in:
Oracle9iAS Portal: Troubleshooting Guide
Oracle9iAS Portal: Diagnostics Tool
Oracle9iAS Portal: FAQ
Have a look at the above, as they will answer probably all of your questions... But if not post away!
Thanks,
Rich

We do have installed a Lotus Notes LDAP. Unfortunately, the documentation is company internal in German.
The steps, in general, where:
1) Create physical connection (obviously, you did that)
2) Deploy the XML Descriptor for the LDAP under "UM Configuration => Data Sources"
We used a derivate of the Sun One LDAP Profile.
3) Match the assignement LDAP Group --> EP Role --> EP User via EP user management
4. The user, in our case, is always created in the LDAP first (from a different LDA administration group) and is then visible in the Portal)
I know, this is very generic, but the "magic" is in the XML profile and I haven't seen any documentation about it yet.
