Launch Application on Wifi-Connect

I want to launch an application each time I connect to a specific wifi network.
Reason: At the office, I need to re-configure my mouse. I can do this with a tiny applescript. But I have to launch it separately each time. There must be a more beautiful solution.

Iphone5 - Downloading application from app store takes more than 24 hours to download and install, even if the memory size of app is very small about 2 MB. WIFI connection seems to works well - because the webpages browsing using safari is very fast.

I face problem with downloading application from apple store.
It took more than 5 hours to install google maps application and many other application took more than 24 hours.
It is very worst to see such downloading performace with my new bought iphone5.
My WIFI connections seems to be very good. As I can able to open many webpages at very high speed.
I can able to see my many HD videos open and play immediately once I touch.
Though i cannot able to test the speed, as the www.speedtest.net also not working in my iphone5.
When i launch speedtest.net app i get the message "Finding closest server" forever and it is never showing the speed details.
My laptop shows the 10Mbps speed with speedtest.net on the same WIFI network
I got much frustrated with iphone5. Can someone help me to fix this issue ?

More than 50 MB sized applications are grayed out with status of "Waiting/Installing", when we update those apps from WiFi Connection?

Hi,
Few application updates are available in iOS App store. However, Those applications are grayed out with status of "Waiting/Installing", when we update those apps from WiFi Connection. It's happening only for more than 50 MB sized applications. Unable to install those application through WiFi, However, it's successfully installed through MacBook Pro iTunes application. Please suggest me, why this happening suddenly.
Thanks in Advance,
Suresh Balakrishnan.

- If I make the deployment required, it will install right away regarless of maintenance windows. However, i don't want to use this option because if the user logs in to other machine (e.g. boardroom computer), it will auto install this software.
Re-check your deployment, specially the user experience:
If you've checked the box next to "Software installation", it will install after the deadline has passed and ignores maintenance windows. Change the deployment to required and uncheck that box and the software should be installed according to your
maintenance windows.

5800: Java applications do not use Wifi connection

Using my 5800 phone, Java applications (e.g. Opera Mini) always use a 3G connection despite Wifi is available.
When I moved the 3G access point to another section under 'Destinations' in my connectivity setup, so I left
only Wifi connections in my 'Internet' section, Java applications do not connect to the internet anymore.
I want to let me select preferably Wifi when available.
Other applications (Web, Google Maps) work correctly.
Any ideas on this ?
Nokia 5800
FW 30.0.011

The only java app that I had that issue with was opera mini.
Solved it by doing this:
Menu > Settings > Application Mgr. > Installed Apps. > Select "Opera Mini" > Options > Suite Settings > Access Point
I then selected my wireless router.
Soon after I decided that opera mini was more trouble than it's worth due the sites that didn't work properly and switched back to the standard browser.
The setting above should work for other java apps that don't behave too, each app retains it's own individual settings.

Why do I have Intermittent Wifi Connection Loss during music streaming ?

Hello,
I have an ipad3 and an iPhone 4S and I am getting with both devices interruption of the sound when I send music to the Apple TV. It generally happens after a few minutes. The signal for the wifi is still good and I have still access to the Internet I have tried all the recommendations of the article "iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections" but this did not help. I have used several applications for sending music to the Apple TV (music application from Apple and DSAudio from Synology) but I'm getting the same issue. I have also the same issue with the media center application from Bouygues Telecom connecting directly to my internet router. My router is a bbox sensation. I had also the same kind of issue with my old router when sensing photo albums to the internet: I had the error message "your system is running low on ressources". How can I solve these intermittent wifi connection losses ?

Try #5.
Some things to try first:
1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
    •    Launch Settings app
    •    Tap on Wi-Fi
    •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
    •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

Imac keeps loosing WIFI connection

Hi all,
I loose wifi connection most of the time (but not all the time) at around 18:00 pm !?!, very strange !
I have no neighbors and no houses close enough to interfere with my wifi.
After loosing connection I do: Syst. Pref - Network - unblock modification with password - Help me - Diagnosis then choose my wifi
and it starts working again for 3 minutes.
Then I loose connection again and have to go through all the previous steps. After 4 or 5 times it's all ok.
What gives ? Can anyone help me please ? Any suggestions ?
I have to use wifi because my ethernet port and firewire ports both stopped working and Apple says I have to take the machine for repair.
Thanks for any help.
OSX 10.9.4

Please test after taking each of the following steps that you haven't already tried. Stop when the problem is resolved. Back up all data before making any changes.
Step 1
Take the applicable steps in this support article. The Wireless Diagnostics program generates a large file of information about your system, which would be used by Apple Engineering in case of a support incident. Don't post the contents here.
Step 2
Disconnect all USB 3 devices. If you don't know which are USB 3, disconnect all USB devices except keyboard and mouse.
Step 3
If you're not using a wireless keyboard or trackpad, disable Bluetooth by selecting Turn Bluetooth Off from the menu with the Bluetooth icon. If you don't have that menu, open the Bluetooth preference pane in System Preferences and check the box marked Show Bluetooth in menu bar. Test. If you find that Wi-Fi works better with Bluetooth disabled, you should use the 5 GHz Wi-Fi band. Your router may not support it; in that case, you need a new router.
Step 4
Open the Network pane in System Preferences and make a note of your settings in the Wi-Fi service. It may be helpful to take screenshots of the various tabs in the preference pane. If the preference pane is locked, unlock it by clicking the padlock icon and entering your administrator password. Delete Wi-Fi from the service list on the left by selecting it and clicking the minus-sign button at the bottom. Then recreate the service by clicking the plus-sign button and following the prompts.
Step 5
Reset the System Management Controller.
Step 6
Reset the PRAM.
Step 7
Launch the Keychain Access application. Search for and delete all AirPort network password items that refer to the network. Make a note of the password first.
Step 8
Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store, or go to another authorized service center.

No automatic wifi connection after mavericks upgrade

I'm using a Mac Book Pro Retina 15" (Mid 2012).
After upgrading to Mavericks the Mac is not connecting automatic to the wifi after restart or sleeptime.
It takes about minutes, to find all the available wifi connections ... after this the Mac is not connecting by its own.
I have to select manual my wifi connection.
This happens as well at any other router and wifi connection point.
Thanks for help!

Test after taking each of the following steps. Back up all data before making any changes.
1. Make sure the network is on the preferred list by following these instructions. It's important to read the article carefully, as it's the starting point for any further efforts to solve the problem. If you skip any of the steps, the problem may not be solved.
2. Follow the instructions in this support article under the heading "Symptom: The network connection drops unexpectedly."
3. Make a note of all your settings for Wi-Fi in the Network preference pane, then delete the connection from the connection list and recreate it with the same settings. You do this by clicking the plus-sign icon below the connection list, and selecting Wi-Fi as the interface in the sheet that opens. Select Join other network from the Network Name menu, then select your network. Enter the password when prompted and save it in the keychain.
4. From the Location menu at the top of the Network preference pane, 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.
5. Launch the Keychain Access application. Search for and delete all AirPort network password items that refer to the network. Make a note of the password first.
6. Repair permissions on the startup volume.
7. Turn off Bluetooth and test.
8. Reset the System Management Controller.
9. Reset the PRAM.
10. Reinstall OS X.

Applications will not connect

all of a sudden I can't open certain apps, like Facebook and Words with Friends. I do have wifi connection. It will say looking for updates and then go back to home screen. I have tried to reset it but that doesn't help.
any ideas?
Thanks

Thanks for the suggestion. I tried it, but no go. I don't think the problem is with Safari since all the Apple applications I've tried can't connect: Safari, Software Update, Music Store. I'll keep experimenting--I've gone through Disk Utility repairing permissions, that didn't help either.
If you can think of anything else, please let me know. I'm not very good with coming up with my own ideas. Thanks!
hi there--
the first thing i would do is launch safari
(hopefully you have a menu at least) and reset
safari. if that does nothing something worth trying
is backing up your booksmarks
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=301239
and then pulling the
~/library/preferences/com.apple.safari.plist out of
the home user library and then restart the computer.
if it doesn't get safari up and running, put it back
in the library, and replace the new copy with the
old one. hope that works. [ : 0 ]

IPad (3rd gen) losing wifi connection during large downloads

Hi,
I am having a problem with my iPad 3rd generation (wifi only, 64GB) running iOS 6.1.3.
When I download large files (e.g. via the iTunes app, the BBC iPlayer app, The Economist app), my iPad almost always loses wifi connection a minute or two into the download, and often stays disconnected until I go into Settings > Wifi and select my home network again. If I resume the download in relevant application, the same issue will typically recur within a minute or two.
I am not having any other problems with this iPad - general internet browsing / streaming of video has been fine. I originally thought the issue was only with the BBC iPlayer app, but sadly have found it to be more widespread.
I have tried to "forget this network", resetting network settings, restoring my entire iPad (twice), and resetting all settings - none of these have stopped the issue. Interestingly, during the first restore of the iPad I received ugly BIOS-esque messages relating to AppleBCMWLANCore, which disappeared after a hard reboot (power + home buttons together), and did not recur on the 2nd restore.
Anyone else experiencing something similar? Any suggestions to fix this?
Cheers,
James

Toshiba EXCITE Pro - WIFI connection. Authentication failed after update

Hello.
Just received this Tablet.
Everything seemed ok while updating to the latest version (did that first to solve the heat problems).
After the last update *i lost my WIfi connection. Authentication failed* (didnt change something - was connecting - updating ok 1 minute before the last update).
After that i started testing ,Wps connection , No security Wifi etc etc.
*Finally at a random time (and with the initial settings) i got connected*. After i shut down the tablet the same problem occured.
After doing the same things again i finally got connected and this time it seems to be ok, even after i shut down the tablet.
However this is frustrating.
Maybe you have to sort this out?
I have seen and other people returning this tablet after having this problem.
It is not a hardware problem since its working ok before the update.
Of course tried factory reset twice.
Hope i dont have this problem again, *but i am informing in hope that you fix this in a future update.*

Toshiba sent me the fix for this. Figured I would use Facebook and they sorted a solution straight away.
It requires a complete reset. Not the soft reset from within Android.
I'll post it here as they will check through moderation I guess.
Thanks for sending a private message Ben. For us to get this resolved for you we would advise to perform a reset from the Android system recovery menu, to do the reset please follow these steps:
The reset process will delete any data, settings, and applications on your tablet. You must have a backup of any data you wish to keep before proceeding.
1. Make sure the tablet is off and not in standby.
2. Hold down the Volume Up and Power buttons simultaneously until the two Android icons appear.
3. Use the volume buttons to select the white box on the right.
4. Once selected, press the power button.
5. Use the volume buttons to select wipe cache partition and then press the power button.
6. Select Yes and press the power button.
7. Use the volume buttons to select wipe data/factory reset and then press the power button.
8. Select Yes and press the power button.
9. The tablet will now reset.
If you have any issues after the reset please get back to us as soon as possible!
Its been working well ever since. I guess the cache clean part might be the main one. You'll have to select the reboot yourself as I did at the end.
Might be best to use Facebook i'll see if I can find my post as the response was quick and efficient unlike their responses in here. I.e nowt from them so far.
They needed my name and serial numbers probably to log problems etc.

Device is connected to to a wifi network but does not have access to Blackberry services over wifi connection

please help me, my blackberry curve has been working perfectly fine (everything network and wifi connection are working great) since i got it but all of the sudden when i connect to our wifi at home i noticed that the wifi logo on the upper screen is grayed out. i checked the manual and it says: device is connected to to a wifi network but does not have access to Blackberry services over wifi connection. i dont know what to do, i tried the hard reset (removed batt for 1 min while phone is on and put it back in) i also tried to remove the wifi profile and added it back up but still nothing seems to work, my service provider has BB services available on my phone, i can received BBM, pushed email, use FB on my phone using my network but i cant use my wifi to browse.. what should i do? help me please!

With a PC, the Windows Firewall and/or the anti-virus software will sometimes block an attempted Internet connection.
Check both applications to see if you can find a "blocked" item and then take steps to "allow" the connection.
If still no luck, temporarily disable the wireless security for a short period to see if the PC can connect that way. If it can.....then you know it is security related issue.
See if the PC can connect using a setting like WPA-PSK-TKIP. The equivalent Apple setting would be WPA/WPA2 Personal.

When I bootup my Macbook my family's PCs wifi connections stop working !

Hi everybody, when my nephew boots up his Macbook (Snow Leopard 10.6.5) he can regularly surf the web through a wireless router. However the wifi connection on other devices (Windows Vista notebook PCs, Linux Pcs, Windows 2000 PC, Playstation 3 wireless, PSP, Xbox ecc.) stops working. When he shuts off his Macbook, wifi connection on Windows/Linux PCs etc. starts to work again.
I've had similar issues only with a wireless TV signal transmitter (working at 2.54 GHZ). When it is on, wifi connection is impossible, no matter what channel is selected (it has 4 channels).
What to do with my nephew's Macbook? I can see that every 10 seconds Airport is searching for wireless signals (the wifi led on the router blinks), but no other traffic is sent/received so I don't think it's a bandwidth problem.
Can Airport be shut off and can I connect to wifi router without airport using other apps or using a terminal (console) application (I use Linux and many commands are the same, i.e " iwconfig - ifconfig ")?
Maybe it's the transmitting power of MAcbook wifi device (too strong?). Can it be modified? I'm not a Mac guru... In linux there is a command, say "iwconfig wifi0 txpower 20mW " to tell the wifi driver to use 20 mW transmitting power on wifi0 device. In that Macbook the wifi device is called "en1"...
Many thanks in advance for good ideas..!

Many thanks for such a fast answer!
@ a brody
I have so many wifi devices (at least 17) I don't want to create a MAC address filtering rule for each one of them! I don't ever know if my router can accept filters on so many MAC addresses!! But I will try out your suggestion if I can't solve in other way.. Thank you!
@ J D McIninch
Thank you, I will try... However, my router don't need to be restarted to get online again: when my nephew shuts off his Macbook the wifi connection is all ok. How could it be that a routing table gets corrupted when the Macbook is on, and that very same routing table gets repaired as soon as the Macbook is shut down? I'm sure, however, my router is a pre-N one ( Belkin modem/router bought in 2004, 802.11 b/g 54Mb with 125Mb turbo mode feature always turned off for backward wifi compatibility)
Thanks
