Maps needs wifi on even when it a wired internet connection
Show location in maps must have wifi on, seems silly on iMac with wired internet connection. Also less secure
"since an Ethernet link could be up to 1000' from its point of connection to an ISP"
That's not the half of it. The *Ethernet* link is only to your cable modem or home network switch or what-have-you, and since you can carry your hardware anywhere on the planet, the fact that OSX could find out the Ethernet MAC address of other devices on the network is meaningless. The only thing remotely useful it can get from a wired connection is the TCP/IP address that your home system is presenting to the rest of the Internet, and, at best, that would just indicate where your ISP's central wiring closet is. In my particular case, packets go to my DSL modem, switching over from TCP/IP on Ethernet to ATM via ADSL, and stay as ATM packets until they get to CenturyLink's regional center, which is about 150 miles away from my house. My IP address (like most peoples') is assigned from a pool of addresses via DHCP, which means that the customer (and thus physical location) associated with any particular IP address can change week to week or even day to day.

can you download songs from itunes match from the cloud to your iPhone ie for times when you dont have internet connection?
Unless you have an Internet connection you cannot access iCloud. You can download your music from iCloud to store permanently on your iPhone, but only when you have an Internet connection to do so.

My Photoshop CS6 always crashes when I lose my Internet connection...why?
My Photoshop CS6 always crashes when I lose my Internet connection...why? This is really aggravating, particularly when I am traveling with my laptop and try to use Photoshop. As long as I have an Internet connection it is fine, but as soon as the Internet is no longer available the program stops working.
Here is the other Detail version:

Problem recording to FMS when client has poor internet connection
Hi,
I am trying to implement a simple system that allows users of our website to leave an audio message. The audio recording tutorial shows a simple example of using the NetStream class to "publish" the audio stream to the FMS. During testing, many of the recordings were cut cropped (missing bits from the beggining or end), ended prematurely or had skips. This happens almost always when the user's internet connection isn't particularly good or is a little unreliable.
Is there anyway to resolve this, short of demanding our users guarantee us they have a perfect internet connection (which is unrealisitc). Is there a way for the stream to be cached locally and published to the FMS to increase tolerance to connectivity issues?
Any help or advice would be appreciated
thanks

I was downloading some songs when I lost my internet connection. There is no sign that these songs reached my iTunes but i have been charged for these songs anyway. What should I do?
It's possible that the message you got was to update the AirPort Express Base Station's (AX) firmware...and that something might have gone wrong during the upgrade.
Let's start by performing a "factory default" reset on the AX to get it back to it's original "out-of-the-box" condition.
Then, let's set it up to work with your cable modem...
AirPort Express Base Station Setup (AX) w/High-Speed Cable Modem
Modem/Router Power ReCycling (optional)
- Power-off the Cable modem, AX, & computer(s). (Wait at least 30 minutes. If possible, leave the modem off overnight.)
- Power-on the Cable modem; Wait at least 30 minutes.
- Power-on the AX; Wait at least 5 minutes.
- Power-on the computer(s)
Setup the AX
With the network components powered down, set up the AX, using the AirPort Admin Utility, either connect to the AX's wireless network or connect your computer directly (using an Ethernet cable) to the Ethernet port of the AX, and then, try these settings:
AirPort tab
- Base Station Name: <whatever you wish or use the default>
- AirPort Network Name: <whatever you wish or use the default>
- Create a closed network (unchecked)
- Wireless Security: Not enabled
- Channel: Automatic
- Mode: 802.11b/g Compatible
Internet tab
- Connect Using: Ethernet
- Configure: Using DHCP
- WAN Ethernet Port: Automatic
Network tab
- Distribute IP addresses (checked)
- Share a single IP address (using DHCP & NAT) (enabled)
Do not, at this point, set up any security (i.e., WEP/WPA encryption, closed network, etc.) to first make sure the AX is operating properly. Try to access the Internet wirelessly with your MacBook. If you're successful, go ahead and add any security features you wish. -
I just purchased and airport express to extend my wifi network. My base station is an airport extreme, I have one wired connection and a wifi network. When I go through the recommended steps to set up the express and "extend the network", the airport extreme will no longer connect to the internet via ethernet. I have tried various settings and can't seem to resolve the problem. Any assistance would be much appreciated.
Ok so we now have a solution to the problem. A friend of mine came round to work this out with me last night and we were able to get it working, but it is not as easy as I had hoped. Fisrtly we plugged the airport express into my router using the ethernet cable (for this I am using an Airport Express Base Station") and in airport utilities selected the airport express. In edit, we then gave the airport express a new range of IP address which did not conflict with any of the other applications that I have already assigned. We also named the Airport Express with a distinguishable name. We then waited for the changes to be registered then unplugged the Airport Express from the router. I then plugged my AppleTV via HDMI into a tv to test it and selected the new wifi network with the new Airport Express distinguishable name. I was able to watch a video that I have on my ipad directly on my tv without being connected to the internet, and was able to play Airplay presentations.
No the easiest solution, and certainly not something that anyone at Apple has talked me through in my lengthy conversations with them at Applecare.
Hope this helps. -
Voice control does not kick in place of SIRI when there is no internet connection
i have an iPhone 4s. i mainly use WIFI at both home and work. and am quite happy with SIRI. but when i leave home for work or am on my way back home after work quite often i press and hold the volume button to give voice command to call my wife. but SIRI does not work!
well, because SIRI needs internet connection and i dont bother using mobile internet (cause then i will need to turn on 3G which drains my battery like nothing on earth) it can not work.
but why does not my ordinary voice control kick in? since 4S is such a great gadget and is so smart in every way (apart from the pictures taken with the volume button could not be turned to adjust orientation in windows!) i was expecting this would be a normal thing to expect from it.
anyways, hope someday they would fix this.I'm assuming you can either use Siri or Voice Control, but not both. I think if you turn Siri on the activation used to use Siri is removed from Voice Control and vice versa. This is just my own theory. Maybe a future software update might allow this.

Hi, i have a doubt, can i have my pdf files on my sd, edit them while in class with no internet connection and when back online they will sync, all i want is to able to open my files without wifi and edit them but when back online sync their changes so i can see them in other device
You can cache the cloud documents that you most often read by opening them once when the network is available. Edits made to these documents would be automatically synced back to the cloud if the network is available. If for any reason the network is not available, these would be synced the next time network becomes available.

<Edited By Host>Hey there zizicool,
If you are still unable to use the iPads cellular data when traveling, I would recommend the troubleshooting information in the following article named:
Get help with the cellular data connection on your iPad (Wi-Fi + Cellular Model)
Tap Settings and make sure that Cellular Data is turned on. Turn Cellular Data off, then back on again.
Swipe up from the bottom of the screen to open the Control Center. Tap the airplane icon to turn airplane mode on. Wait three seconds, then turn it off.
Restart your iPad.
Check for a carrier settings update.
Update your iPad with the latest version of iOS.
Remove the SIM card, then insert it again.
If your SIM card uses a SIM PIN, tap Settings > Cellular Data and turn SIM PIN off.
Tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings.
If you have another SIM card with a valid cellular data account, remove the SIM card from your iPad and insert the other SIM card. If the cellular data connection works with the other SIM card, contact your carrier to report the issue.
Try another location. If the cellular data connection works in another area but not in the first location you tried, contact your carrier to report the issue.
Restore your iPad as new.
If you still can't connect to or use a cellular data network, contact your carrier, make a reservation at a Genius Bar, or contact AppleCare for more help.
Learn more
You might be able to set up or make changes to your cellular account by tapping Settings > Cellular > View Account. To set up your cellular data service for the first time, you might need to use the latest version of iOS and connect to Wi-Fi.
If you're traveling internationally, learn about using cellular data in other countries. Check with your carrier before you travel to make sure that you understand the cost of international data roaming. Tap Settings > Cellular to turn Data Roaming on or off.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Take care,

Airport Express. No airtunes when there is an internet connection.
Hello guys,
Now I have my very own airport express problem. I will try to go into as much detail as possible.
I own Airport express for about a month. It worked fine. Moved to the new apparent recently.
I have HP Pavillion notebook. While without the internet in the new appartment i set up my AE to stream music to stereo in a bridge mode. It worked fine.
Now my inet is on.
I connected AE to modem via ethernet cable, set it in a bridge mode. After a while i got the wireless internet connection on my PC. When the PC is connected to the internet i cannot connect to the AE or get the Airtunes working.
While reading the forums i've found out that i can change TCP/IP on PC to 164.192. and that will help me to connect to AE. I did, but at the same time the inet was gone.
Summary: i have a working wi-fi internet connection while AE is in the bridge mode connected via ethernet to the modem, but have no airtunes. If i set my PC's IP to 164.192. i can get airtunes but no internet. Need to get this together.
*The things i've tried already*: used AirPort Utility to set AE to "distribute IP", via DHCP. After that i rebooted my modem, AE and PC. PC and AE got IPs like 10.1.0. but no internet connection. Tech support of ISP said that it sees my PC, but PC has no IP on the net. While in this mode i also get the trouble connecting PC wirelessly to the AE and have to use hard reset to default settings for AE.
Much the same result i get when trying to "share one IP via DHCP".
Notes: PC's IP is set automatically. PC has internet connection via ethernet cable plugged directly into modem. Usual PC's IP is something like 77.122.
As far as i understand the problem is with IPs.
Please help me out. Thaks alot in advance.Ok, please try the following:
o Power-down the modem, AX, and computer(s). Order is not critical.
o While all of the network equipment is powered down, perform a "factory default" reset on the AX. When complete, power-down the AX.
o Power-up the modem; wait at least 10-15 minutes.
o Power-up the AX; wait at least 5-10 minutes.
o Power-up the computer(s).
Your computer should now be able to access the Internet through the AX. Please post back your results. -
Wifi bars on but browser says no internet connection detected
I am on my school network and although when I log on, I get all bars on the wifi icon blacked in, my browsers all say that there is no internet connection detected. What should I do?
There my be an Acceptable Use Policy that you have to accept before using the network. Turn off your wifi, then turn it back on and reconnect. Then open your default web browser, to see if anything pops up.

How can I prevent Firefox from starting in Offline Mode when there is no internet connection?
Hey!
When I fire up my laptop from standby it takes some time before the wireless internet connection is established. If i am too quick and open Firefox before that happens, it automatically goes into Offline Mode, which I hate a lot.
Is there any way to disable this behaviour?
I have already tried everything mentioned here: [http://superuser.com/questions/208146/can-firefoxs-offline-mode-be-disabled http://superuser.com/questions/208146/can-firefoxs-offline-mode-be-disabled]
Also I found this addon, which unfortunately does not work with Firefox 11: [https://addons.mozilla.org/de/firefox/addon/disable-automatic-offline-mana/ https://addons.mozilla.org/de/firefox/addon/disable-automatic-offline-mana/]That shouldn't happen in Firefox 4 or later. You should just get a page not found or server not found message.
Can you check the following setting?
(1) In a new tab, type or paste '''about:config''' in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
(2) In the filter box, type or paste '''offline''' and pause while the list is filtered
(3) Look for '''network.manage-offline-status''' and reset it to False (either double-click or right-click/reset).
Does that work? -
Why is it taking so long to download film rentals from Itunes ,before it took 20 mins when I have a good internet connection.
If you have anti virus software installed, disable that.
Turn off the Firewall in System Preferences > Security & Privacy
Check your internet speeds just in case > Speedtest.net - The Global Broadband Speed Test
Try not using other applications that require downloading files while downloading media from iTunes.
