Mail Connections Lost After Sleep - sum up the sollutions?

In https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4268728?tstart=0 9 pages are spend on possible sollutions to this problem.
I had this problem, then it disappeared for quite some time, but now I have it again. I not remember what I did at the time, possible a suggestion from these 9 pages.
- Is there an overview that someone has of all th possible sollutions, I am a bit hesitant in going through all the options.
- it seems, looking at the last page, that there is not one sollution? which ones work best?
Thanks

Try a restart.
Do a backup, using either Time Machine or a cloning program, to ensure files/data can be recovered. Two backups are better than one.
Try setting up another admin user account to see if the same problem continues. If Back-to-My Mac is selected in System Preferences, the Guest account will not work. The intent is to see if it is specific to one account or a system wide problem. This account can be deleted later.
Isolating an issue by using another user account
If the problem is still there, try booting into the Safe Mode.  Disconnect all peripherals except those needed for the test. Shut down the computer and then power it back up. Immediately after hearing the startup chime, hold down the shift key and continue to hold it until the gray Apple icon and a progress bar appear. The boot up is significantly slower than normal. This will reset some caches, forces a directory check, and disables all startup and login items, among other things. When you reboot normally, the initial reboot may be slower than normal. If the system operates normally, there may be 3rd party applications which are causing a problem. Try deleting/disabling the third party applications after a restart by using the application uninstaller. For each disable/delete, you will need to restart if you don't do them all at once.

  • Mail connection problems after sleep

    Hi, since upgrading to new retina macbook pro my mail works although not well, most times it will not connect after sleeping, I need to close mail, sometime it will not close and requires a force close, and sometime not all acounts come back on line and I may need to shut down a second time to achieve this.
    I do run 5 different email accounts, POP, IMAP and exchange and have a large amount of mail.
    Hope someone can help, thank you..

    Hello,
    I share the same problems as you do with my MacBook Pro Late 2011.
    For me this has happened only since I have upgraded to Mac OS X 10.8
    I must say it has got a little better and does now go online fine after coming out of sleep once I applied the 10.8.2 update the other day.
    I wonder if this is a bug relating to the different account types. I have a few email accounts running and like you these are, POP, IMAP and MS Exchange. Maybe if it had one account it's fine and that is the reason why not many people have complained about it?

  • Wifi connection lost after sleep

    Hello guys,
    I have a MacBookPro retina 15" and every time my mbp go in sleep mode it lost the wifi connection...
    Someone solved this issue?
    bye bye,
    Oscar

    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.
    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. 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.
    5. In some cases, the problem has been resolved by repairing permissions on the startup volume.
    6. Reinstall OS X.

  • Airport connection lost after sleep mode

    Hello everbody,
    Each time I send my PowerMac G4 MDD Dual 867 to sleep it won't to connect to my (or rather to any) Airport network anymore after waking up, it just seems as if Airport is completely defunct after waking up.
    My iBook G4 works without any problems on the same network, by the way.
    I know the workaround with restarting IPv4 networking (described here: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=1122310&#1122310) and I have also created an AppleScript for automatising this process, however I am still wondering, if this issue will ever be addressed by Apple, since it is still present for me in 10.4.6.
    Best regards,
    Björn Wilmsmann

    Okay, this might not solve your problem, but I had a similar problem when I switched from WPA2 to WEP on my Airport, therefore also changing the password which again somehow got my Powerbook confused.
    I went into System Preferences > Network > Airport and looked at my "Preferred Networks" list (Not "By default, join..." > "Automatic"). Then I edited my airport network in that list (the small "Edit" button) and I saw that the password somehow was corrupted. When I corrected this error my Powerbook began joining automatically after sleeping again. Strangely, this setting has nothing to do with the Keychain Access, even though you can find your base station's password there too...
    Oh, and I might add: My airport is on a closed network and is therefore not "visible"...

  • Wireless Internet connectivity lost after sleep

    I've got a problem where I keep losing my wireless network connection after going to sleep.
    The situation is that I'm connecting to my university's secure network. I have the credentials saved on my MacBook. When I need to go and leave my computer on my desk, I go back to the login window, and close the lid. When I come back and open it again, I'm instantly asked for the network password, at the login screen. Regardless of whether I enter it or dismiss the dialog, I'm unable to get a connection automatically after I resume my user session. There's an exclamation mark on the network icon and it says that there's no internet connection on the menu. When I click on this warning, I'm asked to repair the network connection and re-connect to it. This works, but I'd much rather that this be done automatically. Is there no way for me to resume connectivity after waking up my MacBook without having to manually re-connect?
    Thanks in advance for any suggestions.

    The problem's still happening in 10.6.2. I lose my Internet connection when I go back to the login window, then close the lid on my MacBook so that it goes to sleep. When I awake it, and log back in, I'm shown as being connected to the network, but not to the Internet. I have to manually re-connect.
    When I just close the lid without exiting to the login window, it appears that my Internet connection is re-established automatically, though, on re-awakening. I'm puzzled as to why this is occurring. It looks like a bug to me.

  • Wireless Connection lost after sleep: iMac 27-inch

    When my iMac goes into sleep mode, or logs off after pre-determined time, it loses the wireless connection to the router. I then have to go to the upper right of the screen, select my router from the list of available routers, and force a connection.
    Has anybody else experienced the inability to maintain persistent wireless connections?
    Thanks!

    I had the same problem for weeks with my new 27" iMac.  I tried resetting p-ram, adjusting network settings, throwing out preferences for network settings - - - everything!  Nothing worked.  I final called Apple support and they told me to unplug EVERYTHING from the Mac, including power, wait 30 seconds, and reboot.
    Works fine now.
    Hope that helps!

  • Why is wifi connection lost after sleep/wake mode?

    I've had this iMac a little over a year and had not experienced this until a few days ago.  Every time my computer comes out of sleep mode the wifi is no longer connected.  I must turn it off wifi and turn it back on again to re-establish a connection.  Any suggestions? Thx!

    Hello tim290,
    After reviewing your post, it sounds like after the computer wakes from sleep it does not connect to the internet. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help the issue.
    Wi-Fi: How to troubleshoot Wi-Fi connectivity - Apple Support
    Symptom: After restarting or waking from sleep, my computer might not connect to the Internet
    After waking from sleep or starting up, your computer may not show that it is connected to a Wi-Fi network.
    After start or wake, your computer may indicate that it is connected to a network, but does not connect to the Internet.
    Solution
    Use these steps if your computer does not automatically connect to your desired Wi-Fi network.
    Check your TCP/IP settings in the Network pane of the System Preferences. Click the "Renew DHCP lease" button
    Choose System Preferences from the Apple menu.
    Choose Network from the View menu.
    Select Wi-Fi, then click the Advanced button in the lower-left hand corner of the screen.
    Click the TCP/IP tab from the top of the screen.
    Click the "Renew DHCP lease" button.
    Select the Wi-Fi tab and view your Preferred Networks list.
    Select each network and click the minus (-) sign to remove those networks from your Preferred Networks list.
    Click OK and close the Network preferences.
    Remove your stored network passwords using the Keychain Access Utility.
    Open Keychain Access from /Applications/Utilities. Your window will look like this:
    Remove your AirPort network passwords from the login keychain: Select the "login" keychain from the Keychain sidebar. Click the "Kind" column to order the list of keychain items by their type. Remove all entries of the kind: "AirPort network password".
    Remove your AirPort network passwords from the System keychain: Select the "System" keychain from the Keychain sidebar. Click the "Kind" column to order the list of keychain items by their type. Remove all entries of the kind: "AirPort network password".Note: The above steps will remove your Wi-Fi network passwords. If you do not know them, or if your network does not use passwords to restrict access, you should contact your network administrator.
    Restart your computer.
    Join your Wi-Fi network. You will need to enter your password for your network again if it requires one.
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Have a nice day,
    Mario

  • Connection lost after sleep mode

    When my computer comes out of sleep mode, it's not connecting to the Airport wireless connection.  Waiting doesn't seeme to matter...the icon on my iMac (upper right on screen) shows no connection.  I have to manually turn off Airport and turn it back on to get it to connect (turning it off and on using the icon).
    I have made zero changes to my system, other than that we moved to a new home.  No equipment changes...no settings changes.  What the heck is going on to cause it to no longer connect when coming out of sleep mode?  And more importantly, how do I fix that?  Thanks very much!

    Try the following, in order, until (hopefully) resolved:
    1a. Delete Preferred Network(s)
    System Preferences > Network > AirPort > Advanced > AirPort tab
    Under "Preferred Networks," delete the network(s) you regularly use from the list.
    1b. Delete AirPort Keychain Entries
    Launch the "Keychain Access" application located in Applications/Utilties.
    Click on the "Kind" filter at the top, and look for any "AirPort network password" entries...and delete them.
    1c. Add Preferred Network(s)
    System Preferences > Network > AirPort > Advanced > AirPort tab
    Add the preferred network(s) using the "+" button.
    Restart or log out then back in.
    2. Move System Configuration Files
    (Note: You will have to reestablish your network connections settings.)
    Go to /Library/Preferences
    Move the SystemConfiguration folder to the desktop.
    Restart your Mac. (Note: OS X will rebuild the files that are now sitting on your desktop. If this doesn't resolve the issue, you can move the folder back to it's original location.)

  • Bluetooth connection lost after sleep mode

    I'm using a bluetooth keyboard with my iPhone. It works great. However, if the phone goes into sleep mode, it does not keep the connection and I have to re-establish the connection through settings each time. Is there a way to keep the connection or have it automaticaly reconnect?

    I use the Apple bluetooth. When I sleep my iPad it actually puts the keyboard to sleep. Probably to save the batteries. When I wake the iPad, I still have to go to the Bluetooth and reconnect via the iPad. The keyboard automatically turns back on so I don't have to power it on. I think that is the best you could hope for.

  • Wifi connection lost after sleep in mountain lion

    tried deleting all known networks and wifi services and reconnecting, but there is no improvement.

    I was having the same problem after upgrading to mountain lion.
    What i did was in Finder went to /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/  and deleted all the networking plists (refer screen shot). Then restarted the Mac and in Network Preferences reconnected to my WLAN.
    That solved the problem.

  • Bluetooth connection lost after wakeup ( CSR - bc4 )

    hi
    after wakeup, my aluminium keyboard cannot connect anymore to my macbook pro. when i go to systempreferences/bluetooth i can see the bluetooth's host name is CSR - bc4 (???). when i turn bluetooth off and on again the hostname does set correctly to the name of my macbook-pro. after the restart of the bluetooth-service my keyboard works like a charm.
    any suggestions?
    greetings from switzerland

    I am having the same problem.
    If I use the new aluminium wireless keyboard (with my existing wireless mighty mouse) neither the mouse nor the keyboard reconnect to the computer on waking from sleep - it does announce that I have lost the bluetooth connection but tapping/clicking/waiting doesn't facilitate reconnection.
    If I send the iMac to sleep again (using the power button - the only way I have to get any signal to my machine at this point - I haven't tried Morse Code yet) it does then recognise the peripherals on waking the second time.
    I have also noticed that if I turn the mouse and keyboard off causing the "connection lost" warning and then put the machine to sleep, everything does reconnect on waking (switching them back on of course).
    I have it set not to wake from sleep using bluetooth devices, so that I can tidy my mouse/keyboard away without disturbing the mac. Using my old white wireless keyboard (but the same Mighty Mouse) it works beautifully again as it always did in Tiger with only a minimal delay on waking from sleep before reconnecting automatically.
    The aluminium keyboard is beautiful. But we need a fix - anyone? Is it a hardware problem? A set of dud keyboards? Has anyone found that a different aluminium wireless keyboard does work with the same setup? Or that their troublemaking keyboard does work on other machines?

  • JCoRfcProvider: connection lost after a while

    I have created a couple of EJBs and propagated them using JCoRfcProvider to an ABAP system, so that the backend can reach them. But after a while the backend looses the connection to the JCO server process: "program XXX not registered". After a restart of the RFC destination using Visual Admin everything is fine again. It seems that the connection between the systems is closed when it is idle for some time.
    The <a href="http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw2004s/helpdata/en/2c/760e4248fc5133e10000000a155106/frameset.htm">documentation</a> says:
    If an RFC connection is interrupted or terminated, the JCo server automatically
    registers itself again on the same SAP gateway under the same program ID.
    Obviously, this automatic restart is not working, as the connection stays disabled once it has failed.
    Is there a parameter I missed? Is this a JCO bug? How can I get this thing stable?
    Best regards,
    Frank

    Hi all,
    Lets start off with some info. I have a XP machine with a WRT310N router but the connection to the router from my computer is wired. I have other computers on the network(a wired XP work comp and a wireless vista laptop). I do have linksys Easylink Adviser but it is was to laggy and doesnt work half the time so I dont use it. My antivirus software is Panda Internet Security 2008.
    My problem has only occurred twice but it has prevented me from trying to make a server again. I have been wanting to host a dedicated counter strike source server in steam for awhile.
    I followed all the port forwarding directions. I get the static ip set up and I open the 27015 port for steam.
    I will make a dedicated server and have a few people join and then I follow. Everything works perfectly for about 5 minutes and then my friends are dropped from the server due to loss of connection. I am still in the server but no one can join or even get info on it meaning the server is not responding.
    I then close out of steam and the server and find I have lost my internet connection. I can not visit any websites, I can not do anything in steam, I cant log onto aim, xfire or anything.
    Now my local connections dont say "Connection lost" like they do when the router is shut off or if I lose the actual connection.
    The only way it seems I can get my connection back is by unplugging the router, waiting 20s and plugging it back in. Then I have to wait about 5 more mins and it will just all of a sudden work.
    Does anyone have an idea of what is happening? Is it the router? My antivirus/firewall?
    Thanks in advance

  • Connection lost after 2 songs have been played.

    Everytime I play songs from my macbook to ATV2 it plays only 2 - 3 songs then it hangs. I just got 4 songs out of it. I have to disconnect my home share and re connect to start it again. Any ideas why this would be happening. I've browsed the forum to see that other people have this issue, but there is no answer as to what is causing it. Surely its not the router as I have a new router. ATV2 streams movies without any interruption so I dont get why it happens to songs through itunes.

  • Network connection lost after waking from sleep

    iMac (27" late 2013) running Yosemite 10.10.
    Ethernet connection direct to the computer from the FIOS router.
    Upon waking from sleep, the computer is not connected to the internet.
    After about 20 seconds it finally reconnects.
    Under Mavericks it never lost the connection by sleeping - was instantly connected upon wake up.
    I tried creating a new location under the network system preferences and ordered it so that Ethernet was the first to connect.
    That didn't change anything.
    Any suggestions how to fix this?  I don't want to have to wait every time I wake up the computer.
    Really bugging me.

    Update on my situation.
    I have tried many things to get this fixed including:
    SMC reset (for an iMac this means unplugging it, waiting, and plugging back in)
    PRAM reset
    deleted the "system configuration" folder
    Still no luck.  Upon freshly booting the machine, it gets to the desktop and opens up mail for me, but the internet is not connected right away.  Still takes an additional 15seconds or so after Mail boots up to get a connection.  Then everything works fine.  If the computer sleeps, it doesn't have internet upon waking, but again will establish a connection (self assign an IP address) after about 15-20 seconds.
    So while not crippling, these 15-20 second waits are very annoying.
    Interestingly, this is ONLY with a wired Ethernet connection.  If I use WiFi everything connects right away.  But my WiFi is slower than the wired connection and I prefer to use the wired connection.
    Any further suggestions are welcome.

  • BEFW11S4 wireless connection lost after reboot / sleeping

    I am using the linksys wireless router BEFW11S4 version 4, firmware version 1.5, to connnect two winXP computers, one a desktop (wired) and one a laptop (wireless).
    The wireless connection was created using the EasyLink Advisor software (support.linksys.com).  The wireless connection made by this software to my laptop has no signal strength problems.  A wired connection to my laptop also has no problems.
    However, if a wireless connection is made, it is broken when my laptop is restarted or sleeps (power saving mode).  The sysTray indicates a wireless connection that has "limited or no connectivity".  I cannot browse the internet.  The EasyLink advisor automatically detects a problem and prompts ot repair it.  Though after a few steps the EasyLink Advisor indicates that a "wireless connection failed to be made", the sysTray shows a healthy connection, and it becomes possible to browse at this point.
    I'm hoping to make a connection that doesn't need to be re-established every time I leave my computer.  Has anyone experienced a similar problem?

    Carrot, thanks very much for your message. I tried updating the "firmware" -- is that what you meant by drivers?
    By following the instructions at http://linksys.custhelp.com/cgi-bin/linksys.cfg/php/enduser/std_adp.php?p_faqid=4030&lid=7771778881B05,
    I upgraded the firmware which involved performing a factory reset on the router, and re-establishing the network using the EasyLink Advisor.
    All of the steps were carried out easily according to the instructions and there were no hitches or exceptions. The wireless connection made was strong and usable. At this time I added my second (desktop) computer which has a wired connection, by following the "add another computer" wizard in EasyLink Advisor.
    This completed the re-setup of my network with new firmware.
    I then restarted my wireless laptop, and, unfortunately, the connection was lost, as usual.
    any other suggestions?
    Thanks again!
