Keep loosing the connection to my 30" display

Hi
I've just bought a MacBook Pro 17" + and adapter to my 30" Apple Cinema Display.
There seems to be an annoying issue however; 3-4 times during a work day I loose the connection to the 30" display. This happens without any prior notice. I don't mess with the cables or anything. Everything is plugged in nicely and securely, and the weirdest thing is that even thought the connection is lost to the screen itself my mouse and keyboard (which are connection through the screen) still works.
I need to unplug the adapter to the mini display port 1-3 times before the connection is reestablished.
3-5 times during the day what also happens is that the screen "blinks" for about 1-2 seconds (goes dark) and then goes on again ... causing me to hold my breath hoping the connection is not lost again
Is this a knows issue? And what to do?
Regards,
Daniel

Can I "change the channel"?
Of course. You would change the channel on the wireless router creating the wireless network. The AX will automatically detect the channel that the wireless network is using.

Apple tv keeps loosing the connection with the mac

Purchased a new desktop mac, time machine and an apple tv. everything is working splendid however the the apple tv seems to keep loosing the connection with the computer. As I sit here i see its no longer listed on the i tunes as a device, I seem to have to reset to the factory defaults again and re install it. I hope I am wrong and I am missing a step and its there and maybe I just don't know how to access it, So here I am posting this to all, Help.... I will be the first to admit I really am a little lost with this apple tv
thanks you everyone

I have the same problem as you do. i have had my apple tv for about 2 years now. I connect my apple tv to my iMac, via wifi by airport extreme. i used to before connect via ethernet cable to my airport extreme, i still had the same problem as you do. that itunes losses the apple tv. yet, from apple tv i can still access the internet. i have gone through all my settings on my airport, they are all correct. the connection only seems to last a few days then, it just losses connection. i have asked this question before, but now one was able to help. Apple is not interested because apple tv is just a pet project to them. you do not have to rest the apple tv every time, you just need to go to the options menu and select the connected computers and tell it to delete connection to your computer. once it has done that, make a new connection to your computer on itunes put in the new passcode and set up which films etc you want to be sync. We should not have to do this every few days. Apple needs to sort this out or at least lets us know how to stop this.

My iPad keeps loosing the internet connection. All of my other devices work. Last time this happened, comcast charged $49 to fix it. They said that it's somethin that I downloaded. How can I get back my internet connection on my iPad ?

My iPad keeps loosing the internet connection. Last time this happened comcast charged $49 to fix it. They said that the problem was perhaps caused by something that I down loaded. All my other devices still connected to internet. Tried to reset my settings. Still won't work. Any advice ?

First, changing your DNS settings could not possibly have any effect on this problem.
When you see an exclamation point in the Wi-Fi menu, from the menu bar, select
 ▹ System Preferences... ▹ Network
Click the Assist me button and select Assistant. Follow the prompts. You may get a warning that Wi-Fi is not available, that you're too far from the base station, or that you're using the wrong password.
Assuming that you've ruled out those possibilities, click the lock icon in the lower left corner of the preference pane and authenticate, if necessary. From the Location menu at the top of the window, select Edit Locations. A sheet will drop down. Click the plus-sign button to create a new location. Give it any name you want. In the new location, set up the Wi-Fi service with the same settings you used before. Click Apply and test.

HT201250 WE KEEP LOOSING THE WIFI CONNECTION WHILE STREAMING TO VIDIO-HELP

Why do i keep loosing the wifi connection while streaming to vidio- help

Did you ever find a resolutution to your issue? I have a similar issue after installing Mavericks where the Arris modem goes to sleep when my iMac does, even though other devices on the network are actively requesting data. For the time being, as long as the iMac doesn't sleep the network is fine.

My iMac and iPad keep loosing the wireless connection to Airport Extreme issue started after I installed Lion?

Since installing Lion, I have been loosing my connection to airport Extreme after I have put my IMac in sleep mode. My Ipad is also loosing the connection. This issue started since the installation of Lion, is anyone else experiencing the same thing?

I've had that problem on my macbook running 10.5.8 for a few years. Sometimes it's worse than others. No other computer in my house has this problem.

My i phone 4 keeps loosing its connection with my Toyota Camry bluetooth-- anyone have any ideas why?

My i phone 4 keeps loosing its connection with my Toyota Camry bluethoth does anyone know what I can do about that?

Ignore the ridiculous post by W1$C. He posts that regardless of the person's question.
Things you can do to solve your problem:
1. General>Settings>Reset Network settings
2. If this is only happening at home, power down your router for a minute, then power it back up.
3. Other basic troubleshooting steps outlined in the user guide are to restart, reset, and restore--first from backup, then if needed as a new device.
Hope this helps.

RE1000 keeps loosing internet connection

I recently bought the RE1000 extender to improve our network at home.
I'm using the Linksys WRT610N router and Linksys WUSB600N adapters to connect, no encryption or mac filter.
My problem is that the RE1000 extender keeps loosing internet connection, the computers are still connected to the extender with full signal strength but no internet (Network magic icon with red X).
If I disconnect/connect to the wireless network when this happens the computer will connect to the router with only one bar strength.
To fix the problem I must restart the extender, then it works for a couple of days again before internet is lost again.

As you mentioned in your post that if you connect the computer with the router's network it connects with one bar but does it go online? If yes then connect the RE1000 from the Router and check the DHCP client table it will show the RE1000 IP address and then configure the RE1000 again… Here is the link for the configuration of the RE1000…
http://www6.nohold.net/Cisco2/ukp.aspx?pid=93&login=1&vw=1&app=search&articleid=3760&userrole=Linksy...
Wireless settings in RE1000 will be same as router… In order to get the best performance from an RE1000 you need to place the extender in an area where you still have at least 50% signal strength to your router when you place it in the final location where the RE1000 will be used. Once after the configuration of the RE1000 try to connect the wireless laptop and check the connectivity…
Secondly in the DHCP client table the client name shows up with the Device name and not the Wireless Network Name…

Keep loosing NAS connections (nsf/cifs)

In order to try to get some better data protection I hooked up a NAS (infrant ReadyNas NV) using a Gb switch (linksys SD2008). Problem is that when I - try to - play back music I loose the connection at unpredictable moments. Sometimes iTunes pcks it up again and resumes playback, often not.
There don't seem to be a performance issue, I can copy large files at the same time and keep the connection perfectly open and usable. Now, while typing this message there have been 2 interuptions ...
Who can shed a light into this ?
any tip/hint is more than welcome,

Ipad 3 keeps loosing wifi connection

My new ipad keeps loosing wifi connection when downloading documents, apps, etc.
When i turn of the wifi and download via the 3G, it works fine. And after switching on wifi again, everything seems good.
Are there anybody that has the same problem with the new ipad?

Additional things to try.
Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
Change the channel on your wireless router. Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.

TS2709 I have AppleTV and Ipad2 running VJay app to my TV over a private cisco router disabled firewall but I keep loosing the video on my TV after a few minutes what can I do?

I have AppleTV and Ipad2 running VJay app to my TV over a private cisco router disabled firewall but I keep loosing the video on my TV after a few minutes what can I do?

I also get this problem on my iPad, so probably not related to the AppleTV. On the iPad I restarted Airport Extreme this time, and then the iPad saw my Home Sharing.
So to recap, restarting the router or Airport Express allowed the iPad and AppleTV to see Home Sharing. Restarting AppleTV also allows AppleTV to see Home Sharing.
So does anyone have any idea?
Thanks

Can't re-order my queue on Netflix and keep losing the connection

I'm having so much trouble with Netflix! I can't re-order my queue, I keep losing the connection, and it's painfully slow. Is Netflix known to be unstable on iPad? Other internet connecitons seem to be fine.

I rarely have problems on it - I do occasionally have drops in video quality, but nothing consistent. It does require a very strong and stable network connection, and I also wonder if they have periodic "crush time" incidents on their end, considering the rapid growth of Netflix streaming.
Updating the queue is a pain on it - you can't do it on the app, and have to go to their website. I generally find it easier to do on a computer.

I upgraded Lion recently to 10.7.3. Since that time I am having trouble with my wireless connection. All other devices are fine, but I keep losing the connection since the upgrade.

Recently I upgraded Lion to 10.7.3. Since that time I have been having a lot of trouble with my internet connection. I keep losing the connect and have to go to diagnostics and turn it back on. Is anyone else having this problem?
Thanks, Pat

I'm afraid there are numerous threads on here discussing this problem. I posted in this one earlier that has a couple of suggestions, but the real solution will hopefully be provided in an update from Apple:
