Losing connection to online app games.

Been playing a couple of online games but recently (last few days) I have had trouble with them. Sometimes they do not load and even when they do they end unexpectedly within a few minutes. restarting, switching the device off & back on has no effect. Wifi is working fine (no problems getting online using safari). Only other step I have not taken is removing the apps and reinstalling them (not sure if I would have to start again if I did).

Restore from iCloud or iTunes. If the app(s) still crash, the iPod probably can't handle the app. iOS: An app you installed unexpectedly quits, stops responding, or won’t open

Losing connection when online gaming

Good day. I've been having trouble with my airport extreme + time capsule. Whenever I try to play an online game (e. g. Loadout via Steam) whole network goes down for a while rendering it impossible to avoid disconnecting from the game. Any ideas?
Computer is Vista SP2 (yeah, I know) with Belkin N adapter.
Thank you.

Are you already using the Linksys Smart Wifi? Set up media prioritization in the router and see if that will improve the connection with the xbox. Is the connection intermittent with other devices? Is there like a specific time in the day where your connection will drop?
To know more about media prioritization check the links below:

Buttons not working; then losing connectivity on certain apps, but the browser continues to work

For Torch 9800: only the touch screen buttons are working. The entire keypad and the top 5 buttons (menu, send, etc) were not working. I did several battery pulls and it finally started working. However BBM, FB, WhatsApp, BB App Store stopped working, but the web browser was still working, so it was not a connectivity problem. Then the keyboard problem started again. I did another battery pull and is started working again, but still to access to FB, BBM or Whatsapp, App word. Please help.

Hi and Welcome to the Community!
Wow...lots of problems there...and impossible, without some significant diagnostics, to deduce just what the culprit it. It could be hardware, it could be software, it could be moisture intrusion, it could be other things, it could be a combination of things.
So, first off, do you at all suspect moisture intrusion? If so, then
REMOVE YOUR BB BATTERY NOW!!!
Run, don't walk, to this FAQ:
http://www.blackberryfaq.com/index.php/Got_Your_BlackBerry_Wet%3F
Do everything it says, including waiting the maximum recommended time. Applying power to your BB between it getting wet and doing this process reduces the chances of success. Further, the only thing predictable about moisture intrusion into a BB (indeed, any electronic device) is that the results will be unpredictable. I've seen some come back up right away and be fine. I've seen others never work at all. I've seen still others run for a bit, and then die later. And every thing in between.
If you are 100% certain of no possibility, even remote, of moisture intrusion and/or you have done the above and there is no change, then the next thing to try is a clean OS reload. What I suggest actually is to reload your OS clean -- as "bare bones" as possible...no add-on apps, no extra things, no themes, truly bare bones. Then, if the behavior immediately presents, you can stop as you then know that it's either hardware or un-fixable moisture intrusion. On the other hand, if the behavior does not immediately present, then run like that for perhaps a week...long enough to be convinced that the behavior will not recur. Then, after that week, add just one thing...only one, no matter how tempting it is to add more. Run again for another week if the behavior does not present. Once the behavior does present, you know your culprit! I realize this is tedious, but you have a special problem, and special diagnostics are IMHO required.
So, to do that OS reload, at the top of each device forum, there should be some "sticky" threads that discuss the OS levels available for many models. If they include your model, then please use those as reference as you proceed. Otherwise, you will have to dig through the official download portal for OS packages for your model:
http://us.blackberry.com/support/downloads/download_sites.jsp
From a PC, you can install any compatible (e.g., for your exact BB Model Number) OS package to a BB via this procedure:
http://supportforums.blackberry.com/t5/BlackBerry-Device-Software/How-To-Reload-Your-Operating-Syste...
Note that while written for "reload" and the Storm, it can be used to upgrade, downgrade, or reload any BB device model -- it all depends on the OS package you download and install to your PC. You can even use a different carriers OS package by simply inserting, between steps 1 and 2, the deletion, on your PC, of a file named VENDOR.XML. Be sure that you remove, from your PC, any other BB device OS packages as having more than one installed to the PC can cause conflicts with this procedure.
If you are on MAC, you are limited to only your carriers sanctioned OS packages...but can still use any levels that they currently sanction. See this procedure:

Bluetooth losed connection to Audible app

I have a Jawbone Icon, which I have updated with the A2DP functions. I used it with my iPhone 3G and rarely had a problem with the connection. The iPhone 4 seems much more tempermental. The Icon always connects with the phone, but not with other apps - in particular, the iPod. There should be an icon in the iPod showing it is connected to the Icon, but it is not there and the music or book play through the iPhone's speaker. I have to go into Settings, delete the connection to the Icon, turn the iPhone off and on, and reestablish the connection. It is VERY annoying. Does anyone know why this is happening and what I can do about it?
Thanks.
Harry

Relpsa51, I have the same problem with my Jawbone Icon and iPhone 4. Did you ever find a solution?

My new iphone4 won't connect to the app store or iTunes. It says cannot connect to iTunes. But I logged into the game center and onto this web sit. I tryed some fixes on here but nothing has worked. Suggestions?

HI again Andy,
The last message had some more stuff in between the "Hello" and "Regards" - I have no idea what happened to it. But nevermind...
I started up the Mini with the modem in one usb, and the speaker system in the other (M-Audio Sonica Theatre) - I have one of the Minis that have only 2 USB (and one FireWire) ports. The firewire has the external drive connected to it.
So far, as I"m typing this, I AM able to be online and use iTunes simultaneously. (both SaFari and iTunes respond slower than if I was using only one or the other, but they ARE actually working - in addition to having Adium running) - So I think what you suggested ( that is was something wonky was the USB hub) was a correct, yet assessment.
Would you have any reccommendations for USB hubs? The only thing that I have connected to the hub under normal circumstances that would be constantly "running" would be the RadioShark (even though the Radio soft isn't playing - the blue light on the RadioShark is always on) - and the speakers naturally. Everything else is of the occassional variety - iPod Sync Cable, Dual Layer External DVD Burner, and a "pass thu" to the USB ports on my Hard Drive Enclosure (which had been unplugged before the problem was noticed). The hub I current use is the
Kensington DomeHub USB 2.0 (7 ports) Weighted Hub 33118 http://www.amazon.com/Kensington-DomeHub-ports-Weighted-33118/dp/B0002FHENE/ref= sr16/002-4275642-8664817?ie=UTF8&s=electronics&qid=1187848108&sr=8-6
which (I thought) worked better than the "throwaway" ones I had used previously.
You think it is the hub or something connected to it that may be causing the problem?
Regardless, thank you for your time, and I hope to hear from you soon.

How come my brother and i can't connect in the same game online using my WET54GS5?

When i first got my WET54GS5 my brother and i could connect in the same online session using two ps2's that are both connected to the WET54GS5 which is linked up to my WRT54G V 5 router flawlessly. Now all of a sudden whenever we try to connect to the same game online the one that is already in that session gets disconnected. There have even been times where one got connected and was using the other persons settings (example: Jared and Justin log on to the same game at the same time, Jared can't connect, but Justin can however Justin is now playing as Jared's character.)We can connect to other games under the same setup just whenever we want to play in the same game we can't. It seldom works though but only like twice out of ten times. I'm wondering what the issue is here and if anyone has any suggestions on how to get us connected to the same game with no worries. And if your curious both playstation 2's are running star wars battlefront 2. Message Edited by JJbro1 on 06-17-2008 09:47 PM

Try to figure out or make sure QoS is enabled on both devices (referring to bridge and router) and set to AUTO mode or fair mode. Also ensure there is no manual settings on the PS2s for ip (this applies to most modern game systems as well)
Udated gaming systems are designed to attempt taking full advantage of bandwidth available, by enabling QoS, or similar named technology depending on the brand of the network device you will prevent your gaming system from hogging all the network bandwidth and stomping out the other game system. They will be forced to equally share the bandwidth and eliminate this kind of situation. I sometimes need 7 game systems online at once and I ran in to this problem a lot,, QoS enabled and never had it again.

In the middle of downloading an update for garage band and lost the connection, now the app won't open or finish the download. Can I reinstall the app without losing my music?

In the middle of downloading an update for garage band and lost the connection, now the app won't open or finish the download. Can I reinstall the app without losing my music?

The obvious way to resolve this on a computer would be to uninstall the app, then reinstall it, however on an iOS device that would cause all the data assoicated with the app to be thrown away.
Make sure your iTunes library has the latest updates for all your apps, then backup and restore the device. This should pull back a fresh copy of the app from your iTunes library and then give it the data from your device backup.

Buying in-app games when unable to connect iPod touch to internet?

I have mobile broadband and I would like to download an in-app game for my commodore 64 simulator, can I do this without downloading it directly through the app, ie. if I connect to the iTunes store and have my mac connected to the internet?

Maybe, why not try it? You should also be able to set up your Mac to act as a wifi hotspot using the mobile broadband for the internet source and using the Mac's wifi as the router. So to System Preferences>Sharing>Internet Sharing. The instruction provide d on the Mac are pretty good.

After updating to iOS 6.0 everything is a mess. i cant get in my CO app game, imessages undelivered, worst of all i cant connect to Apps store. If u were able to solve this pls let me know. or if possible to return to old OS 5.1 that is much better. HELP!

I had the same experience with a new iPhone 5 that I bought last week. Did not have a chance to measure battery life before the 6.0.2 upgrade installed but I set up my phone exactly like my 4S and immediately started running out of power after short periods. Went to Xmas get together with fully charged 5 and 4S. Heading home the iPhone 5 shut down for low battery and the 4S had 65% power. Both phones had two half phone calls on then and no data usage.
That night I fully charged the iPhone 5 and, without lighting it up, put it on my night table. Next morning I picked it up and looked at battery indicator and I had 42% charge with NO activity!
Tried it again next night and wound up with 37% charge. (Slept longer).
Today I called the carrier and reactivated the 4S. Took the 5 to Apple Store and they kindly gave me choice of new replacement phone or refund. I took the refund. Uniquely, the Apple Store said it was Verizon CDMA phones that were coming back.
The are other strings on this with temporary solutions, but from my experience with 7 firmware changes on an HTC 4G phone the problem will continue because the solution will be hardware caused. We are in the days where RTM means Rush to Market - not Release To Manufacturing.
I fear the only solution is to either wait for the next model (I did not notice a really major change in performance over the 4S in LTE heavy Seattle area) - or switch to another manufacturer.
It might be useful for these forums to indicate if you have a GSM or CDMA phone to see which have more problems.

Can't Connect to online games / other players Wii U

I can browse the internet and see other people online on my wii u via wifi but i cant connect to online games of mario kart 8 and people cant connect to my games of mario kart 8. There is a lot going around about how poor telstra is for supporting this but I want to play mario kart 8 online, if I can't do that on telstra then I will take my business elsewhere.

Leigh-M,
BigPond does not provide support for 3rd party devices such as the WiiU. If you are experiencing difficulties your first point of contact would be Nintendo.
Can you confirm what troubleshooting steps you have done?
Have you made sure you have the latest firmware updates?
Confirmed that there are no ports that need to be opened to do this?
Have you tried manually configuring the DNS servers to those of other states or using Googles public DNS?
Have parental controls been disabled?
Are you able perform a traceroute to the server?

When i play certain pogo games i keep losing connection why is that

i keep losing connection from the interent when i play certain pogo games

what can i do to fix this

Is there a way to synch an iphone to a new computer without losing contacts, music, and apps? New HD on my macbook, never been synched with any other devices. Thanks

Is there a way to sync an iphone to a computer that has a new hard drive without losing all the songs, apps, contacts, etc? The computer has iTunes downloaded, but no device has ever been synched to it. Sorry if this has been posted before, but if anyone could point me to the steps that I need to take it would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks for your quick response...we don't have a copy of the old computer...Hard drive died one morning, I now have learned the hard way that what we did was really dumb, and am backing everything up . We were told that if we synched it with a computer that didn't have a library yet it would be ok?
The procedures that I have been able to get online:
1. Go to Itunes library without phone connected
2. disable automatic synching for iphone
3. Connect iphone, back up
4. then synch
What do you think?

Gamecenter error: connecting to online services on call of duty black ops zombies for iOS.

So I got this new app 3 months ago called Black ops call of duty : zombies. And I LOVE it!! But every time I try to join an online game, wether it be map vote, single map, 2-4 players, restarting my phone... What happens is it takes me to the gamecenter connect page, where it connects me with another player, but after a few seconds, it takes me into the multiplayer lobby, and then pulls up a message saying "connecting to online services" and it does that for a minute before saying "error joining room" and makes me quit the online game, leaving the other person kicked off the server because the other person (me) left or was kicked, I do NOT want to jailbreak my iPhone for this problem, and I am very experienced with iPhones and other electronics, both apple and Microsoft, if there is anyone who knows how I can fix this problem WITHOUT jail breaking my phone or paying money.. (Maybe ill pay money, it depends...) then Please tell me! It has done this to me EVERYTIME for the past 3 months, and still does... So please help!

I don't think it's an issue on the phone. you may need to contact the app developer. Make sure that the app you are using is not associated on your game center account.

Recent problem: clients are losing connection to AMS 5.0.1

For the past week, since Oct 14, we've been having issues with clients losing connection to our AMS application. We have online classes that include a chat room and sometimes an audio stream from the instructor. This application and its server has been running stable for months... until last week.
One of our staff was connected to the app, getting everything set up for a class, and she started complaining of getting disconnected. I looked in the application logs and noticed that the application.onDisconnect was being triggered. However, the client didn't register that it had been disconnected for several seconds afterward. She let me know when she got the "Diconnected" message on her screen, which comes from the NetConnection.onStatus handler.
The only other sign of a problem is that in the server's core logs we started getting the following error when we checked bandwidth:
> Invalid command message data: unexpected bw response from client 000000001D670170
The client number changes frequently, so I'm guessing that this is first happening to one person and then another. We don't think that this bandwidth check is causing the disconnects because we rolled back to a previous version that didn't have it. The disconnects still happened after using the old version. What makes it frustrating is that it hasn't happened to anyone on the dev team, regardless of which network we've connected from. Also, the code hasn't changed on the client or the server, and to my knowledge, we're still using the same configs for months.
The AMS is v5.0.1, the client is written is AS2 and targets Flash Player 11.4.
The affected Flash Players reported are 15.0.0.152 and 15.0.0.189, in browsers IE, Firefox, and Chrome, but not all installations are affected.
Is there anything else I can look at to determine what the problem is? Does anybody have any insight as to what might be suddenly affecting our AMS app?
Many thanks,
Nick

Yes, we came to the same conclusion about the unexpected bw. We realize that it is not causing the issue, but I included it because it started happening at the same time and thought that they might be caused by the same issue.
We have been trying to come up with what changed to cause this, and aren't coming up with anything.
We have been on 5.0.1 for at least 5 months, no changes there.
We haven't updated the main.asc since 9/16.
The VM that runs our server is still the same, and AMS config files haven't been touched.
The client swf had a change 2 weeks ago, but we've reverted the change and are now using the old swf again.
The person who initially reported the problem was using the same computer that she's used many times to connect; she was going through her usual process to set up for the session.
You mentioned bad network, and that is another thing that I have been looking into, but our IT department says that we haven't seen any huge increase in bandwidth usage, and that everything looks to be within normal operating ranges
If there are any other points that you can think of that I could check for changes, I'm open to suggestions. This problem has been ongoing for 6 days, and I have been searching for answers since it started.

Access point --- Internet losing connection every 5 minutes....

i have a wrt54g v6 router and a wmp54g both current drivers and firmware from the linksys website. i am frequently losing connection between router and internet. i've lowered my mtu, i've forwarded ports, reinstalled card in all 4 pci slots, i've literally done everything i know possible to do. i sat on the phone for 4 hours waiting on a linksys technician before my phone died friday trying to get ahold of someone for some help. resetting the router doesn't seem to help at all. the connection loss time is random aswell. sometimes it's for minutes sometimes it's for 10 seconds, but when you're playing online games that's all it takes to disconnect you. i've been going absolutely crazy trying to fix this so if anyone has any idea's i would be ever so greatful.

First off all i don't suggest to play online games on wireless since as we all know wireless is such an unstable media for connection.
Can you tell me the distance between the computer and the router. Also what is in the direct environment of the network.
Are you using a 2.4 GHz cordless phone. This device is can cause intermittent internet connection on wireless networks
we still have to isolate the problem just in case something else is causing your problem.
