Dear Support,
I am experiencing constant freezes when I am connected on internet.
Everything stops including mouse and command like CRTL ALT DEL,
My PC runs on Vista and it is still under warranty.
Do you think it is software or hardware problem ?
Thanks,

MBP freezes when connected to internet

Hi all,
My 2011 MBP has continually frozen when connected to the internet for going on 5 months now. Bizarrely, it is the only computer in the house that is affected, and it is only on this network that the problem occurs. When connected to other networks, the laptop functions as normal.
With regard to the freeze, I can still move the cursor around the screen (although it becomes a beachball), however any programs I have open become unresponsive and I am unable to open any new ones. This includes Finder. Further, I am unable to login when connected to my home network, instead stuck on the user login window (the part with the blue bar after I've logged in).
I'm somewhat reluctant to reimage it, and so any other ideas would be most welcome. Thanks in advance.

Just to update this thread with what I've posted elsewhere:
On my machine this problem only happens if the computer has been put to sleep before being connected to a projector. That is, put to sleep after being booted but before connection to the computer. It can be connected after booting without sleep. Once it has been successfully connected to a projector, it can be disconnected, put to sleep, awakened and reconnected with no problem.
I think that this "first sleep after boot" issue is what makes the occurrence of this problem so variable.
Some people just leave their computer on for long periods, only putting it to sleep when not using it. If they connected to a projector before putting it to sleep the first time they wouldn't see this problem.

Iphoto freezes when connected to Internet or Places turned on

Hi all,
I've seen a couple of threads around this but no real solution.
If I open iphoto while connected to the internet it will load and then shorty after display the beach ball loading symbol and then become unresponsive causing me to force quit. If I open iphoto while not connected to the internet everything works fine (until I connect and then straight away I get the beach ball again). Additionally, if I go to iphoto preferences and turn 'Look up places' to 'Never' I can use iphoto while connected to the internet fine.
Therefore I think the problem revolves around Places. I have my photos tagged with geolocation in the meta data and when I connect to the Internet with Places turned on (just before it freezes) I get a loading symbol appear next to places. Maybe it is having trouble fetching the location from the apple servers based on the geolocation coordinates??
The problem started a couple of days ago. I am using OSX 10.9.4 and iphoto 09 8.1.2. Late 2008 Aluminium Macbook, 2.4GHz, 8GB RAM, 50GB free HDD space.
I've tried the Command+Option Launch Iphoto and gone through all the steps and also deleting the iphoto .plist file.
The simple solution is to leave 'Look up places' to 'Never', however, it would be really nice to be able to use the Places functionality.
Any insight would be much appreciated.
Regards,
Matt

I use iPhoto 8.1.2 with Mavericks and the only way to get around the slow launch and freezes is to turn off all sharing and lookup places, etc. in it's preferences.
Did you install any Mavericks updates recently? Event though V8 worked for a file it is so precarious in it's compatibility with Mavericks I rate it not compatible. One might say it's too "old school".

I installed iCloud yesterday and since my mac book pro is slowing down to almost total freeze after 8 minutes when connected to internet. Anyone knows what to do? Many thanks

IPod Classic 80 GB Freezes when connecting to Computer

Hi.
My iPod Classic 80 GB Freezes when connecting to my computer (Vista... yes... I know). I've got my iPod for over a year now and I've never had real trouble with it.
When I plug it in (iTunes already running) my computer gives me the 'thumbthumb' noise because an USB thingamajib is connected to the computer. At this moment my iPod freezes and stays on. iTunes doesn't seem to find my pod. When I disconnect my iPod, it'll stay on (doesn't go energy safe mode) and stays frozen until the battery is empty. But by then, I've already lost my playing info (Which I really value).
Pllllllease help me out her.

Someone has finally found a solution to this problem and i decided that i would spread the word around ... so here are the steps:
1) Quit iTunes.
2) Delete iTunes from your Applications folder.
3) Go to your ~/Music/iTunes folder. Delete or rename the "iTunes Library" file.
4) Open the "Previous iTunes Libraries" folder and look for the backup of your old pre-9 library; it should be dated at about the time you first ran iTunes 9. Copy it back out to the ~/Music/iTunes folder, and rename it to "iTunes Library".
6) Go to <http://support.apple.com/downloads/iTunes8_21> and download iTunes 8.2.1. The page says it's for G3, but the Read Me file says it'll run on G4, G5, and Intel too. Open the diskimage and run the installer.
You should now be able to run iTunes 8.2.1 again.
And your iTunes will restore to before you upgraded and you won't lose anything.
*If you download the iTunes file from the "support.apple" link, and you can't open it, go to http://www.mydigitallife.info/2009/06/28/apple-itunes-8-2-and-quicktime-7-6-2-di rect-download-links/ and download "iTunes 8.2 for Windows: iTunesSetup.exe

MBP freezes when connected to VGA projector

My MacBook Pro (15" 2.4Ghz SR, 4Gb) freezes when connected to a VGA projector, doesn't matter whether the DVI-VGA adapter is connected to cable first or last. Boot time while connected to the projector is also inordinately long. I have seen this happen a number of times specifically with other Santa Rosa MBPs.
I haven't called Apple yet on this and I suspect it will require a firmware update to fix; is this a known issue (and is it known to apple?)
thanks

Network Configuration Window Freezes When USB NDIS Internet Connection Sharing and Ethernet Port Are Used Simultaneously

Current Setup:
Asrock Extreme 4 Z77 mobo with built-in Broadcom NetLink (TM) Gigabit Ethernet. Windows 8 Pro. Intel i5-3570k (using onboard Intel 4000 HD Graphics). RAID0- 2 OCZ Vertex 4's.
I will refer to this setup as my tower.
The Ethernet port works fine by itself. When I use wired tethering with my Android phone (Droid 4 running on 4.0.4 Ice Cream Sandwich), it works fine when nothing is connected into the Ethernet port in the mobo.
The issue arises when I try to connect both simultaneously. The network configuration window in windows basically freezes and I cannot really navigate it without a ~60 second delay at best.
I would like to be able to accept the internet from my Android via a USB tether and either bridge the connection or use the internet connection sharing service to route traffic through the unused Ethernet port on the mobo (either to another computer/xbox
or more desirably a switch/router to spread to the entire home network). I have extensively researched the issue of Windows 8 become slow and unresponsive when I attempt to do this and I have not found anyone with the exact problem. I am able to
do both the MAC bridge miniport (bridge 2 connections) and Internet Connection Sharing though a Windows Vista (home premium) Laptop I have. The difference between the laptop and the tower I am try to do this on is the laptop has a WIFI and Ethernet connection
while the tower only has the on-board Ethernet.
Do I have all the necessary equipment to accomplish this, or do I need to buy a PCIe WIFI card? If so could I get away with just getting a USB WIFI dongle?
Any help would be very appreciated.

I had the same problem and came here by searching.
Per Rosengren's method solved the problem, but he didn't say how to do it, so I'll try to explain step-by-step for anyone that may venture here.
Open Device Manager (right click on Computer > Manage > on the left side, under System Tools choose Device Manager)
Choose the problematic device in Network Adapters (for me it's called HTC Remote NDIS based device)
Right click on it and choose Update Driver Software...
Click Browse my computer for driver software
Click Let me pick from a list of device drivers
Uncheck the box Show compatible hardware
For the manufacturer, choose Microsoft Corporation
Now you will have two options:
- Remote NDIS based Internet Sharing Device
- Remote NDIS Compatible Device
I chose the second one and it solved the problem, but if it doesn't work you could try the other one. In my case, the driver that was being used was neither of these, but a special driver from Android SDK ADT bundle.
Pick one and click Next. If a dialog comes up, confirm by clicking Yes.
Wait a few seconds for the connection to restart. If it doesn't work, try disabling and reenabling USB tethering on the phone, or reconnect the USB cable.
I should also note that I'm using a custom Android ROM on HTC Wildfire S (unofficial Cyanogenmod). If you have a stock ROM with HTC Sense, maybe this method may not work and you'll need a proprietary HTC driver.

Freeze when connecting to wifi after waking from sleep

This problem was isolated to my Powerbook when I wanted to connect to a public hotspot (it started with the latest updates). Now, however, after updating my iMac G5 with all the latest updates, it's happening to it at home on my own wireless network.
When I wake my computer, it freezes when trying to reconnect to the wireless network. The only way to get access is to hold the power button down long enough for it to shut down and then upon restart I have a workable computer that can connect to the internet fine.
I've repaired permissions and repaired my disk from the install CD. I've waited up to fifteen minutes to see if the freeze would terminate with some process timing out, but no luck.
The beachball appears when I rollover the airport status in the menu bar (and the volume and clock) but doesn't appear when I rollover other items in the menu bar (quicksilver and norton). However, if I click on anything everything freezes and the beachball "just won't quit."
Anyone have a clue what's going on? All help is very much appreciated.
thanks,
bryan

Hi bryan. Welcome to the Discussions.
1. You wrote: "When I wake my computer, it freezes when trying to reconnect to the wireless network. "
1.1. How do you know that the problem is specifically related to trying to reconnect to your home WiFi network, as opposed to some other potential cause of a wake-from-sleep freeze?
1.2. Are you using an AirPort base station or third-party base station? If third-party, what specific make and model?2. You wrote: "I've repaired permissions and repaired my disk from the install CD."DId Repair Disk find any errors, even those it may have corrected? If so, did you write them down?
3. You wrote: "The beachball appears when I rollover the airport status in the menu bar (and the volume and clock) but doesn't appear when I rollover other items in the menu bar (quicksilver and norton). However, if I click on anything everything freezes and the beachball "just won't quit.""Could be one of the other menu extras you have installed, i.e. the icons on the right side of the menu bar other than the Spotlight icon. Often menu extras are launched as Startup or Login items. My "Troubleshooting Startup and Login Items" FAQ can help you pin that down if such an item is causing the problem. Note that your AirPort connection won't work in Safe Mode, but it gives you a way of testing if the wake-from-sleep or menu extra freeze is related to a menu extra, especially a third-party menu extra launched as a Startup or Login item.
4. See if your computer's serial number is in the range specified in the "iMac G5 Repair Extension Program for Video and Power Issues" document.
5. As far as general iMac G5 troubleshooting goes:5.1. Rule out potential hardware problems. Run the Apple Hardware Test that came with the computer. Instructions for doing so will be found in the hardcopy manual that accompanied your computer. For additional details, see my "Apple Hardware Test" FAQ.
5.2. Check the diagnostic LEDs, a feature of your iMac G5. See "About the iMac G5 diagnostic LEDs."
5.3. If your iMac G5 will not turn on, see "iMac G5: Troubleshooting when your computer won't turn on."
5.4. See also the iMac Service & Support site.
5.5. Check the iMac G5 Discussions for similar reports from other users.
5.6. As a general check, run the procedure specified in my "Resolving Disk, Permission, and Cache Corruption" FAQ. Perform the steps therein in the order specified. While you've done some of these steps already, it won't hurt to double-check this.
5.7. If the computer is either under warranty or covered by an AppleCare Protection Plan, don't hesitate to take advantage of your warranty and contact AppleCare.Good luck!

My iPad air keeps crashing and freezing when browsing the internet . Please help :(

My husband and I updated to the new OS. Now our iPad Air's keep crashing and freezing whilst browsing the internet. We have done a reset and swiped away pages but nothing is helping. Its very frustrating Can anyone help? Thank you Jo

Please tell me that it has NEVER been jailbroke. If it has not been jailbroke, here are some standard repair procedures:
First, confirm that this is what you did for a "reset." Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. It could take well over an hour! Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow the on-screen directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod. As before, say "yes." Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time. If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device. Corrective action is simple - choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
If you're unable to do the Restore (or it doesn't help), go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here. You WILL lose all of your data (game scores, etc,) but, for the most part, you can redownload apps and music without being charged again. Also, since you have IOS-7, read this.

Blue Screen when connecting to internet

I have this problem: blue screen appear in Win XP randomly when i try to connect to internet using a Genius modem. The error notification is this:
"A problem has been detected and windows has been shut down to prevent damage to your computer.
DRIVER_IRQL_NOT_LES_OR_EQUAL
Tehnical information:
***STOP: 0x000000D1 (0X00000000, 0x00000002, 0x00000000, 0x00000000)
Beginning dump of phisical memory....."
First i suspected a memory issue, so i tested it with Memtest 86 but didn't find any errors. I run 3DMark 2001 several times with no errors, 3D games runs also without problems. I put the modem in 3rd PCI slot, the 4th is occupied by the network adapter and the 5th slot by the SB Audigy (with the newest drivers installed from Creative web site). There is an IRQ sharing between the network adapter and an USB host controller used for a Logitech Steering Wheel. CPU temp never exceed 50C, Dinamic Overclock is disabled and Performance is set to slow.BIOS is 1.3. Since i have this motherboard, (six days) i have this very annoyng problem 1 of 4 times i connect to the internet.
Please, if you do have any suggestions i need some help.

I researched this a bit, with my very similar error.
I can tell you this much with certainty--that blue screen is a driver problem. Maybe in your case Norton FW is bringing it out, but it is probably a conexant chipset in your modem, and you are getting the same end result as me.
They haven't released, at least that I can find, a driver for this modem chip set that correctly handles irq sharing. Conexant is what's inside of a suprising number of modems, and the software (base driver from them to the modem OEM) is old.
Pretty sure Danny's on the right track with hyperthreading being the problem. The other possibility is the whole complicated HAL/APIC deal. Toss in some other HAL acronyms.
But hyperthreading is a more recent development, so I will give it a shot, soon. Don't feel like crashing at the moment. But if that is the answer, I'm not going to turn off HT. Nope, the modem will be stuck with the generic 56k MS driver, which works ok, sorta, just doesn't report speeds right, or do compression and error handling right. Or 56K for that matter. OK, it's a bonejob, but I need HT more than a dial-up.
Unless somebody has some ideas.
One day I will take out my collection of really crappy modems and shoot them. Do a web page. I now have 5.
Don't buy Bestdata. 2 year old driver and they want money to talk to tech support. Brand new. Says XP PRO on the box.
