Network fails but I'm typing on it right now..

When I boot up to Arch with an ethernet connection I get an error saying that network fails to start up. But I'm typing on it right now with no major problems except that after a period of inactivity the network will fail to respond. After that I can't get it to work without rebooting.
/etc/rc.d/network start fails with this message:
SIOCADDRT: File exists
Anyone have any ideas of what's going on?
Here is ifconfig output:
eth0 Link encap:Ethernet HWaddr 00:0A:E4:33:33:1B

Ok, so it turns out the when you put network in your rc.conf it tries to get ALL network connections going. This is a problem for me on my laptop since I move daily from house to office. At the houes I use eth1 (wireless) and at the office I use eth0 (ethernet).
Is there some seamless way I can just have my network connection work no matter where I am? Maybe ifplugd or something?

My ipad air2 screen is black and won't come on. I can hear siri but she says she cant work right now. What do I do?

If it has NEVER been jailbroke, here are some standard repair procedures:
First, try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. It could take well over an hour! Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow the on-screen directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod. As before, say "yes." Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time. If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device. Corrective action is simple - choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
If you're unable to do the Restore (or it doesn't help), go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here. You WILL lose all of your data (game scores, etc,) but, for the most part, you can redownload apps and music without being charged again. Also, read this.

I want to delete certain emails on my ipad but not on my mac. Right now when I delete a message on my ipad it moves to trash in my mac

I want to delete certain emails on my Ipad but not on my mac. Right now when I delete message on ipad it moves message on mac to trash also. Can I change this?

If this is an IMAP account, that is how it is supposed to work. The whole point of IMAP is to keep your email synchronized across multiple access devices.
Instead of trash, you could move those files to a new IMAP folder you create, something like "ignore on iPad" folder.

I had bought iPhone 5 16g on line, but i want iphone 5 64g right now, so,what can i do ?

i had bought iPhone 5 16g on line, but i want iphone 5 64g right now, so,what can i do ?

If you purchased thru your carriers website you could try calling your nearest company owned store to see if they do an exchange when you receive the 16GB. Chances are they have a larger demand for the 16GB then the 32GB. You're still going to have to wait until your receive your 16GB though. At least that's how AT&T works.
Hope that helps.

Both my wife and I have iPhone 5 and we use Siri a lot. Ever since we upgraded to IOS 7 we found that frequently we get a reply from Siri something like "This is embarrassing but I cannot handle a request right now". Prior to IOS 7 this did not happen.

tonefox is probably right. Server overload. I also notice that when siri does respond correctly, it is slower. My wife has a 4s and same story, and she has not upgraded to IOS 7.
So it's not just you (if that makes you feel any better).

Wifi network failing, but Chrome is fine!

Hi,
I've recently started to have terrible problems with my wifi network: i thought perhaps i was losing internet connectivity, but this is not the case.
All i can say is that periodically my internet apps lose connection, and then i will notice i've lost network connection.
Eventually, some of it is restored, but this time i noticed something interesting: I can use Chrome fine, I can now see my network, but apps such as Slack and Safari are totally failing to connect.
This is a brand new Macbook Pro with16GB Ram, a 521MB SSD, and the latest Yosemite OS (10.10.4 14C109)
From my perusing, i noticed that often a log is requested from EtreCheck, so I include one here in advance, taking whilst Chrome is working but Safari etc are not.
Thanks
-Mark

I can't print web pages since a recent upgrade to 4.01. The print command works but the page comes out empty. right now a copy the link to IE and print from there. HELP!

When printing from the mozilla 4.01 browser the printer spits out blank pages. It seems like it happened after downloading and running mozilla 4.01 browser.
I have to copy the link to IE (boo!) to print the coupon or page on my printer.
Why?

The "Use custom settings for history" selection allows to see the current history and cookie settings, but selecting this doesn't make any changes to history and cookie settings.
Firefox shows "Use custom settings for history" as an indication that at least one of the history and cookie settings is not the default to make you aware that changes were made.
If all History settings are default then the custom settings are hidden and you see "Firefox will: (Never) Remember History".
"Never Remember History" means that Private Browsing is active and "Always use private browsing mode" gets a checkmark.
You need to remove the checkmark on "Always use private browsing mode" to leave Private Browsing mode or chose the "Remember History" setting.

I venture to say you have a Windows PC.
If so, before beginning the download try temporarily disabling your antivirus, anti-adware, anti-spyware, and any other anti-whatever that is required with the insecure OS your computer is running.

NETWORK marked [FAIL] but works...

Hi everyone,
Recently, during boot, network is marked as failed but everyhting works properly... This only happens with wireless connection (ipw2100), ethernet is marked [DONE] and works too
Thanks in advance for any advice...
Cheers

I'm not sure if I completely understand your post, but if you have multiple network interfaces and one fails, then network shows fail even if others were successful. There's a bug report filed about it, but it's been quite a while without being fixed...
And if that doesn't answer your question then ignore me.

HT1937 Hi my email is not working it says" Cannot gel mail...The connection to the server failed" but my network is working ok is the only application failing...how can I solve the problem?

Hi, my mail applicatin is not working properly. It says cannot get main...the connection to the server failed but everything else is working ok. How can I solve this problem?

The connectivity test indicated that there was a problem with the user's ActiveSync folder, typically fixed by checking the box "Allow inheritable permissions ...".
Since it already was checked and even by removing the inherited permissions and then re-inheriting them didn't do the trick, I ended up just deleting the whole thing and then made a new duplicate account and blank mailbox. That was pretty drastic
but it fixed the problem. After restoring his mailbox contents from backup, the user is now a happy camper.
The connectivity test tool was helpful because the external URL was blank so I filled in the URL. But ActiveSync was working fine for everybody without the URL before although I don't know why it did work without it.
The other funny thing is on one of my iPads I am able to synch my mailbox and also the user's mailbox but on another iPad it just wouldn't synchronize when it worked before I added the external URL. The iPads have the same OS version so I
just don't understand it. Oh well.
Thanks for your help. That was a good tip!

OS X 10.8.4 wifi says "connection failed", but connects anyway; cannot save password

I am using OS X 10.8.4 that came with my MBP. When I connect to my home wifi that requires a WPA 2 password, it says "Connection Failed", but anyway connects to the internet. Also, my password is not being saved, and I need to enter it everytime.
After reading several forums, I have already tried the following:
1. removing airport preference list from Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration
2. Removing network password from the keychain
3. Using Keychain first aid
4. Using disk utility and doing repair disk.
5. Doing DHCP release in Network Preferences.
6. Removing my network from the preferred network list and connecting again.
I am using a D-link modem. It should not be a problem, because the same MBP could remember the password before. The problem happened when I tried to fix my wifi because it would take long to connect after waking from sleep, when I deleted the airport preferences list, and removed the keyring.

Back up all data. Don't continue unless you're sure you can restore from a backup, even if you're unable to log in.
This procedure will unlock all your user files (not system files) and reset their ownership and access-control lists to the default. If you've set special values for those attributes on any of your files, they will be reverted. In that case, either stop here, or be prepared to recreate the settings if necessary. Do so only after verifying that those settings didn't cause the problem. If none of this is meaningful to you, you don't need to worry about it.
Step 1
If you have more than one user account, and the one in question is not an administrator account, then temporarily promote it to administrator status in the Users & Groups preference pane. To do that, unlock the preference pane using the credentials of an administrator, check the box marked Allow user to administer this computer, then reboot. You can demote the problem account back to standard status when this step has been completed.
Enter the following command in the Terminal window in the same way as before (triple-click, copy, and paste):
{ sudo chflags -R nouchg,nouappnd ~ $TMPDIR.. ; sudo chown -R $UID:staff ~ $_ ; sudo chmod -R u+rwX ~ $_ ; chmod -R -N ~ $_ ; } 2> /dev/null
This time you'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
The command will take a noticeable amount of time to run. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear, then quit Terminal.
Step 2 (optional)
Take this step only if you have trouble with Step 1 or if it doesn't solve the problem.
Boot into Recovery. When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select
Utilities ▹ Terminal
from the menu bar. A Terminal window will open.
In the Terminal window, type this:
res
Press the tab key. The partial command you typed will automatically be completed to this:
resetpassword
Press return. A Reset Password window will open. You’re not going to reset a password.
Select your boot volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if not already selected.
Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
Under Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs, click the Reset button.
Select
 ▹ Restart
from the menu bar.

Network fails but I'm typing on it right now..
