Macpro  2.4 duo 2g hd wifi keeps turning off since upgrade to OSX

upgraded to leopard then OSX and now  my wi fi keeps shutting off and I have to reboot to get it back, very annoying

Go to System Preferences
Click Network
Highlight AirPort and click Configure or Advanced depending on version of OSX...
Choose “By default, join: Preferred networks”
Select your access point and Remove your access point with the minus button.
Launch your keychain access in Utilities and delete your access point keychain entry.
Reboot
Go back to the “By default, join:” page and click the plus this time to add your access point. Enter the correct password, save, reboot.
Instead of joining it from the list, click the WiFi icon at the top, and click join other network. Fill in everything as needed.

  • Wifi keeps turning off

    Every time I go to turn my wifi on to connect it just stays on for a minute without even trying to connect to anything and then turns off.
    It's always stayed on before, even between wifi connections, so I  don't know what the problem is... Heeellllppp

    Spoiler (Highlight to read)
    Had the exact same problem ! 2 days later I just shut the whole system down and restart / Boot back up problem was solved Wifi slider now Dark Blue as compared to a ghosted Blue before that keeped returning to The off position and all my listed Wifi connections came back ! not sure how the problem began

  • 4s won't backup because wifi keeps turning off.

    I have an iPhone 4s. The wifi hasn't been working on it for a long time. I finally decided to get a new phone. Each time I try to back my phone up with icloud the wifi will temporarily turn itself off. This has happened every single time. How can I fix this so I can back it up?

    If you are backing up automatically (rather than manually by tapping Back Up Now), make sure you are plugging the phone into your charger.  If you don't, wifi will shut off shortly after you lock the screen to conserve battery power.

  • Phone keeps shutting off since upgrade to ios7

    Phone keeps shutting off and I cannot turn it back on.  After about 5-10 minutes it will turn itself back on.

    Try resetting your iPhone:
    Reset: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

  • Mountain lion osx wifi keeps turning to "off" setting by itself.

    Mountain lion osx wifi keeps turning to the "off" setting by itself and when I try to turn it back on again it doesn't change from "off" to "on" Any ideas about whats wrong? The only way I can solve it is by restarting the macbook.
    I have a macbook pro
    2.53 ghz intel core 2 duo
    8gb memory

    You are running a pretty old version of the OS if your information is correct above and there have been quite a few improvements to the WiFi systems in recent releases.
    You may want to try to reinstall the OS. If that does not work you may consider upgrading the OS.

  • Can anyone help me keep wifi off on my S5?  Since the last update my wifi keeps turning on without input from me.  I have unlimited data and don't use the wifi much to extend the battery but this is killing it now.

    Help is here to resolve this issue with your wifi connection 88DaveS. Lets try disabling your "Smart Network Switch". Select Settings> Wifi. The 'smart network switch' is in the advanced settings. Locate the Menu icon in the upper right hand corner > Tap Menu > Tap Advanced > Locate and ensure the check box is Unchecked next to Smart network switch. Let us know if this helps.

  • Wifi keeps shutting off

    My wifi on my 3gs keeps turning off after about 10 seconds of data usage is there any possible solution to this?

    try deleting your network connection, and go to settings:general:reset (at the bottom of general) And tap reset network settings. then add back your wifi connection. For security, use WPA2 not WEP. You might also unplug your router for 15 seconds and plug it back in.

  • Wifi keeps going off

    Wifi keeps going off

    It's normal for WiFi to turn off when the phone goes to sleep if the phone is not connected to power; this is to preserve battery life. Is it happening at some other time?

  • Since updating to ios6 my 4s keeps turning off.

    Since updating to ios6 my 4s keeps turning off, has 5%  last time had 18% battery and says connect to power, comes straight on with 18% still!

    Additional things to try.
    Try this first. 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.
    Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    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
    Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.

  • My ipod keeps turning off

    My Ipod touch 5th generation,  keeps turning off when it thinks too much the screen goes green, red and sometimes negatives colors which then turns off , this issue has been going on for at least two months i would say,I honestly dont know what to do .... I have friends which they have sent back their iphone,ipod,ipad back to apple and got a new iphone,ipod,ipad back , but unfortnatley i do not know what is required for me to send back it back to apple. Also I have realised today that my ipod will not turn on , thats either when i press my home button ,lock/power button or connect it to my laptop and my wifi also keeps disconnecting and connection each time or sometimes it wont even connect to bluethoot.
    I don't know what else to do...

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost      
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings                            
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                               
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes      
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.                       
    If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • IPhone 4S latest software keeps turning off

    My iPhone 4S was overheating a week or so ago, I was holding it and it got awfully hot so I put it down and left it for a few hours.
    A day ago, it turned itself off out of nowhere, I turned it back on and when I went to use it, it would keep turning off and on and freezing,
    Finally today it wont turn on, it gets to the start up part (black with white apple logo) and freezes and wont get any further.
    Help?

    Hey,
    Thanks but all ready tried that.
    I took it to apple and its a problem with the latest software update, it wouldn't even let apple run a diagnostics.. It fried the whole thing lol. Caused from the battery so be sure to check your battery guys :)

  • IPhone 3GS keeps turning off/shutting down.Have done system restore but no improvement. Suggestions welcome.

    iPhone 3GS keeps turning off/shutting down. After numerous attempts I've managed to get it on again. Any ideas - could it be battery? Suggestions welcome.

    Try forcing the phone into recovery mode and restore as a new device.
    Follow these steps:
    iOS: How to back up your device and setup as a new device
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137
    Doing this will help eliminate any possible software issue that could be causing this. Setting up a new device will bypass a backup with possible data corruption.
    If the issue continues after this, you should contact Apple for service for the phone as it will very likely be a hardware issue.
