"Network Error" dialog box - how to suppress?

Whenever my MacBook takes a long time to acquire a Wi-Fi connection, it puts up a "Network Error - This computer's Internet connection appears to be offline" dialog box -- an unhelpful statement of the obvious. It only just gets in the way and can lead to annoying flip-flops between Spaces. Is there some hidden preference I can set to suppress it?

I was able to correct issue by removing (mine had two) the networkinterfaces.plist file in the library-preferences-systemconfiguration folder.
It is automatically rebuilt upon restart and error disappeared. Hope it works for you.

  • How can I disable "download error" dialog box when saving a complete web page?

    Sometimes, when I try to save a web page as type: "Web Page, complete", firefox displays download error dialog box stating a file "could not be saved, because the source file could not be read."
    I don't have a problem with firefox couldn't save that file, but I have a problem with firefox displaying that dialog box, because I have to click OK everytime.
    Is there a way to disable that annoying dialog box?

    I modified the host file mainly to block ads. But that's not the problem. It's OK for me for firefox to not saving some parts of a page (ads usually within a frame). It's my intention to NOT saving those files. I just want to save the main content of a webpage.
    But I'm having a problem with firefox displaying the dialog boxes.

  • File dialog box: how get full path and filename (firefox 3.0 problem)

    Hi,
    I have a smilar problem then discussed in this thread: file dialog box: how get  full path and filename
    Now this solution doesn't seem to work in firefox 3.0,I only get the filename but not the full path.
    I have tried to solve this problem by adding *"netscape.security.PrivilegeManager.enablePrivilege("UniversalFileRead");"* in a javacript function but that doesn't do the trick
    Although when i tested it local it does work.
    Any idees how to solve this?
    Best Regards
    Stijn

    Actually, that is strange and scarry. With 20% of the browser market share they decide to behave like Microsoft did in the past - they want to decide what users need and what they do not need. With 3.0 I have a real problem with some of my applications. They are all tested in IE6, IE7, FF2.0 and they all work the same way (they even work with Opera and Safari). Now, I will for sure not go there and make it work for 3.0, just because 2 out of 200 users use FF3.0. Up to now I have always recomended FF as the best browser. 3.0 causes my opinion to change completely. Competition is always good but it is a question if it is good if we have 20 different browsers out there with equal market shares.

  • Can't get rid of start-up error dialog box- "Failed to connect to device"

    when I start-up or restart there is an error dialog box
    icon of a camera,
    tells me to check cables, turn off device etc, but there is no device, and I've restarted with no cables attached, other than mouse and keyboard.
    the error code is

    there is an "OK" button, but it won't do anything and I just have to drag the dialog box over to the side of the screen and work around it....
    any suggestions?

    Look in System Preferences/Accounts/Login Items and see if Image Capture is listed. If so, Delete or Hide it.

  • Make Custom (Run-Time Error Dialog Box)

    I  would like to Customize the  Run-Time Error Dialog Box   
    bcos I want to use  H/Wbuttons (need to Init  the H/W) & not mouse to navigate thr the box 
    is the  Dialog box available in Labview also

    Hello aparab,
    You won't be able to edit the dialog in LabVIEW for sure. Not sure if NI provide CVI / C++ source for that.
    You can have your own dialog by handling the run-time error using SequenceFilePostStepRuntimeError callback. Look at this example:
    http://zone.ni.com/reference/en-XX/help/370052M-01​/tsexamples/infotopics/callbacks_sequencefileposts​...
    The example ships with TestStand as mentioned in the above link. You just have to use the information which will be in Parameters.Step container for error details and to customise your dialog.

  • Program Error Dialog box won't go away!

    Recently when I open almost any photoshop file, I get a dialog box that reads "Could not complete your request because of a program error"...when I click "ok" nothing happens, the dialog box remains and I can't do anything but force quit photoshop.  This has started happening out of nowhere.  Any ideas?

    Can you raise the Preferences dialog with command-K and cancel that? (Probably not, but under some circumstances this may help with unresponsive dialog.)
    Anyway, you don’t give much information:
    How To Get Help Quickly!
    Boilerplate-text:
    As with all unexplainable Photoshop-problems you might try trashing the prefs (after making sure all customized presets like Actions, Patterns, Brushes etc. have been saved and making a note of the Preferences you’ve changed) by pressing command-alt-shift on starting the program or starting from a new user-account.
    System Maintenance (repairing permissions, purging PRAM, running cron-scripts, cleaning caches, etc.) might also be beneficial, Onyx has been recommended for such tasks.
    http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/system_disk_utilities/onyx.html
    Weeding out bad fonts never seems to be a bad idea, either. (Validate your fonts in Font Book and remove the bad ones.)
    If 3rd party plug-ins are installed try disabling them to verify if one of those may be responsible for the problem.

  • When online via WiFi, Firefox repetedly attempts to connect via dialup, with error dialog box returning every 15 sec. or so.

    At home, I use dial-up. When I'm visiting, or at certain stores, I use a Wi-Fi connection. When I'm on Wi-Fi, Firefox does not fully recognise it. It will, eventually, use the Wi-Fi connection, load pages, etc. But it keeps trying to dial in, even while connected via Wi-Fi! Closing the dialog boxes only works for a few seconds, then it tries again, and again, and again, and again... Arrgh!
    N.B. Could this be Weatherfox connecting to update weather info using its own connection, rather than piggybacking on whatever Firefox is doing?

    You can try to swap the order of the connections and place the Wi-Fi connection at the top to see how that works.

  • File dialog box: how get  full path and filename

    Hello All
    i have a problem to save the full path and filename with file dialog box.
    I want to save full path and filename in the database for creating a link to a file.
    I use a file-dialogbox to choose a file.
    I see in the textfiled something like this
    \FULLPATH\filename.ppt
    but when i save the textvalue in the database or look at the seesionvalue I see
    this:
    F2087258868/filename.ppt
    but I need the full path to create a link. How I can get?
    I use version 2.2.1..
    Thanks
    Putcho

    Hi Putcho,
    You can create some javascript that puts it into a hidden item.
    In HTML Form Element Attributes: onChange="$x('P15_X').value=$x('P15_FILE').value;" Then create another process that stores the value of the hidden item in your own table...
    I quickly made an example with a normal text item, so you see it copies itself to the other box: http://apex.shellprompt.net/pls/apex/f?p=286:15
    Hope that helps,

  • Network Access dialog box keeps popping up too quickly to click

    Lately, Compressor (or maybe Batch Monitor) has been causing this problem:
    While a batch is compressing, a dialog box pops up on the screen for a fraction of a second, way too quickly to read it or click on it. I see "Deny" and "Allow" buttons, so I am guessing it's a dialog box asking about network access.
    I found that it pops up at the same time interval I set in Batch Monitor's prefs for updating.
    I tried trashing Compressor's prefs and restarting it.
    The frustrating thing about this problem is that it interrupts anything else I'm doing. It interrupts typing, or a mouse drag. The only workaround I've found, so far, is to not run Batch Monitor at all.
    I'd reinstall, but that'll take days because I have to track down someone in the company who keeps the install media under lock and key. I'm hoping you know of a way to solve this... please? A search of this forum turned up nothing, so far, but I saw a user posted about this problem on another site... and the solution suggested there didn't work for me (not sure it worked for him, either).

    I was having the same problem and noticed that while hovering over a menu item, the popping box stopped popping up. I of course couldn't keep my mouse hovering over a menu item forever and do anything else, but luckily I tried selecting "About Compressor" from the menu and that stopped the box from popping up as well and let me go on to other applications. As long as you don't click the About Compressor box off the screen, the popping box problem is solved, at least for me it is working...
    I hope this helps you...

  • SUBMIT command;  for print dialog box-how to pass parameter here?

    Hi Gurus,
    I am calling a report from another report. Inside report_2 i am using,

    Here i need to enter the output device name. and again excute.
    I am not able to automate this in my program. Could you suggest?
    Through F1 help, i found the screen_field name(of the output device parameter) to be 'SFPOUTPAR-DEST'
    and i enter default output device 'PDEST'
    where do i give this?
    and also, after this, i need to do a 'Print Preview' action and see if file is opening up.
    Can i automate these actions?
    I am using:
    rspar_line-selname = 'SFPOUTPAR-DEST'. // the output device parameter name
    rspar_line-kind = 'S'.
    rspar_line-sign = 'I'.
    rspar_line-option = 'EQ'.
    rspar_line-low = 'PDEST'. // PDEST is the default value i want to pass
    APPEND rspar_line TO rspar_tab.
    Then i do, (inside report 2....)
    SUBMIT report_1
    WITH SELECTION-TABLE rspar_tab
    AND RETURN.
    Its not working... i just get the print dialog box(without values being defaulted)
    How do i proceed?
    Thanks,

    You can do the following way.
      data :  lv_pri_params     like pri_params,
              lv_user_name      type char16,
              lv_user_name0     like tbtcjob-authcknam.
      lv_user_name  = sy-uname.
      lv_user_name0 = sy-uname.
      call function 'LOAD_PRINT_PARAMETERS'
           exporting
                key            = lv_user_name
           importing
                out_parameters = lv_pri_params
           exceptions
                error_occured  = 1
                others         = 2.
      if sy-subrc <> 0 or lv_pri_params-pdest is initial.
        select single padest into lv_pri_params-pdest from tsp03.
      endif.
      submit report1

  • Evaluation dialog box - how to get rid of it

    Hi,
    Is there a way how to get rid of following dialog box when it appears?
    Please note user is not allowed to click on any button. I need to do this purely by program. Ideally some registry entry.
    Thank you, Michal.

    Hi Roberto,
    Yes! I noticed "Do not show this dialogue again" checkbox but I cannot use it due to several reasons. Let me explain.
    I am using LabWindows/CVI ActiveX Controller to control the project creation/building process. This is running on different machines where I cannot really rely on whether this checkox was hit by anyone before or not. So this was a critical requirement to handle any such event without user intervention. Here starts the story where I was looking into automatic solution for how to handle this.
    About your second question, the last one should be correct. The CEAL would have to be down for whole my evaulation period in order that CVI would stop working. But when CEAL is available again this 30-day evaluation period should be restarted and with another CEAL outage this window shown again. This is where I am like 90% certain. So please don't take this as an absolute truth if not confirmed by any NI staff.
    Anyways as I said before I am not into this solution anymore but if anyone would have any idea how to simply handle this without any user intervention I would store this into my knowledge database . I already mentioned Windows function above which should work. Also there is a freeware SW called AutoIt which basically does the same.
    Thank you, Michal.

  • Trying to download iOS 7.1 and I get a "Network Error" message. How can I fix this?

    Hello. Today iOS 7.1 came out and I want to get it.  I currently do not have 2.5GB of free storage on my iPhone 5s so I wanted to use iTunes to download and install iOS 7.1.  The problem is that every time I try to download iOS 7.1 I get a "Network Error" message (screenshot provided).  The alternative I tried to use is downloading the IPSW file directly from the internet but I also get a network error (screenshot provided).  I was able to download anything and everything else I wanted to download today but only get this error when downloading an Apple IPSW file.  I downloaded iOS 7.0.6 less than a week ago through iTunes and didn't have an error but with iOS 7.1 I am having many difficulties.  I disconnected my internet and tried again but still no success.  Does anyone have any suggestions to fix this problem?  Any input will help!  Thanks so much!
    The error through iTunes
    The error through Google Chrome

    Try directly from your device. I had the same problem but it updated when i tried from the device itself.

    A couple things can cause this.
    Right click on the red x to find out the name of the png file.  Search the web server for that png and make sure that the asp worker has access to it.
    The other is a image handler issue.  Search the kbase for Red X NET 2005 and you will find a kbase or two that addresses this.

  • Updated firefox wants to use an uninstalled font for dialog boxes, how to change the font?

    I'm running Redhat and I just upgraded firefox from 3.0 to 17. Webpages display correctly, but the menu options and dialog boxes are empty boxes. I need to either install the font it's looking for, in which case I need to know what font it's trying to use, or tell it to use a different font. I can't read the preferences menu, either. My older version displays just fine; is there a preferences file I can copy to the new directory to fix it?

    This is what the preferences menu looks like. I have tried selected various fonts that I can read, but it doesn't change what's used in the menus.

  • I keep getting a network error has occured how do I fix this?

    So I just got the LG Vortex, and I am learning quite a bit, I have set up a google account and went through all the steps but when I go to the market place, or any other apps it says a network error has occured..Is it set up wrong? I have it set up on 3G mobile Hotspot.

    3G Mobile Hotspot can share the phone’s 3G data connection with any Wi-Fi capable devices.
    You would want to make sure that feature is off, then you could just use the network to access the Android Market Place.  
    Power the device off then back on, then dial *228 send and option 2 on the device.
    Then try accessing the Market Place again.
