PC Laptop Intermittent failure with AEBS

Have extreme base station, Toshiba laptop has been connected successfully to it off and on. The symptoms are that when the laptop is restarted, it does not connect. I can see the wireless network, which has the proper name assigned as the base station, but when I press the connect button, it refuses to connect. No WEP security on at all.
After an unpredictable number of hours, the laptop does connect to the AEBS and connects to the Internet.
If I use the Apple software for Windows with setup utility, it sees the station.
Any help appreciated.

Hey there,
I see you've had no reply to this but thought I'd chip in with what might be a similar problem.
I have been lent a Toshiba Laptop from a very generous friend purely so that I can play a PC only game. I am trying to connect it to my home wireless network which uses an Airport Extreme Base station and adsl router.
I'm a long time mac user so it's not surprising that I'm struggling to make sense of the windows environment but so far I have had success in getting the laptop to connect to the network. I did this by changing the password settings for the Airport to a 13 character (letters and numbers) WEP encrypted one that the PC could recognise. When I clicked on the avaible network, I entered the code at the prompt and it connects.
The problem I'm now facing, is that internet explorer will not connect to the web and after fiddling about, I can see that the laptop does not have an IP address. Does anyone know what I need to do now in order to get an IP address from my airport.
BTW, I checked out the ifelix website links or whatever they were called but no luck yet. I will continue to read more posts here but if anyone knows exactly what I'm talking about and can help, I'd be very grateful.
Cheers.

'Music' displays but won't play. Settings appear correct and iPhone is selected for output. Startup screen intermittently displays with the lower pause/play volume bar for no clear reason..... developed at the same time as play failure. Ideas????

'Music' displays but won't play. Settings appear correct and iPhone (3G) is selected for output. Startup screen intermittently displays with the lower pause/play volume bar for no clear reason..... developed at the same time as play failure. Ideas????

Thank you for the replies.
Appearane of 'Music' functions (I>> > II <<I, plus volume slider) on the lock/log in screen (when first turning on the iPhone) thus far seems without pattern, i.e. regardless of which if any applications are up in the background, and indeed even when all have been quit.
All visual aspects of 'Music' appear normal after launch including the title scroll across the top in vertical mode. However, while pressing play (>) converts the play (>) icon to pause (II), selected song does not play and the elapsed time bar (upper end between the track count and the repeat/shuffle icons) remains stationary at 0:00 or at any point to which it is dragged. When using home sharing this same problem persists regardless of what output is selected.
Hope that may prompt a thought somewhere.

Intermittent USB automount failure with GNOME 3

Hi all,
I'm running an up-to-date Arch64 system with a USB 3.0-capable motherboard (via xhci-hcd driver). This is a desktop system that is either in use or in sleep mode most of the time (I don't reboot often). Most of the time, auto-mounting of USB sticks or my camera works perfectly. Plug the device in, it shows up in Nautilus.
However, over the past 4-5 months I've experienced intermittent failures of auto-mount, always after the computer has been through several suspend/resume cycles. When I plug a USB storage device in, I can see it with lsusb, but it doesn't auto-mount. The only way to restore automount functionality is to reboot (restarting GNOME shell, the X server, or logging out don't do it). I've searched the forums, double checked my package installations, udev rules, etc., but can't find any problem. I finally caught some info in the logs tonight; can someone please help me understand what's going on?
This was the first time auto-mount failed after working fine a few minutes before (prior to suspend/resume). Immediately after plugging the device I got this:

A few minutes later, I unplugged the device and plugged it into a different USB hub, and automount worked! It looks like this time a scsi driver was invoked somehow....what's going on?

I am getting this problem as well. lsusb command does not show my device as being plugged into the computer. The only way to get anything off of any USB storage device is to reboot the system. Very annoying. Again, after suspend/resume is when this problem turns up.
What can I contribute to help solve this issue?

Intermittent problem with Personal Hotspot

Hello All
I think either my iPad 2 or my iPhone 4 is mental. Can anyone convince me otherwise?
For some months now I have been experiencing an intermittent problem with tethering my iPad 2 to my iPhone 4 Personal Hotspot.
Sometimes it works without a hitch (although I have to turn the Personal Hotspot on the phone off and on again to get iPad to 'see' it) and at others, like now, it shows me the message 'Unable to join the network 'iPhone'. It throws the message up so quickly that even though it 'sees' the phone in the list of networks, it behaves as though it can't actually be bothered to even try to connect.
I have tried reboots and restarts, 'forgetting' the network, changing passwords, sacrificing a chicken... all the usual stuff. But still when it gets in this kind of mood it stubbornly refuses to do anything. I have even taken it to the Apple store where, not surprisingly it worked first time and the assistant looked at me as though I was an idiot. It then proceeded not to work for a couple of days again as if punishing me. There is no problem with the general Wi-Fi connection as I have another phone (an Android) that I run as a Hotspot too. It has never once had a problem connecting to this or any other Wi-Fi connection..
Confusingly, and rather irritatingly, after a few days of this not-connecting lark it will have a few days of not having a problem connecting at all. I won't have changed any settings on either iPad or iPhone and so I have no way of figuring out why this is happening. This has been the same situation with all versions of iOS I have installed ever since buying the phone in April 2012, and the iPad in June 2012.
Please, is there anyone out in the ether that can suggest a solution to this? Or is one of my Apple products simply mad? I have given both devices a strong talking-to, but this hasn't sorted the problem either. Next, I think I might have to try sacrificing a goat.

I have the same issues with my iPhone 5 (6.1.4). I do not have an answer for you, and perhaps my "workaround" will lead someone with more knowledge about these things to offer us more information.
When I turn on the Personal Hotspot and it does not show up as visible on my iPad or MacBook, or offers that ambiguous message about being unavle to join the network, I perform a few steps that almost always resolves it. I have to go through these steps twice sometimes. The order of operations seems to affect the outcome (at least it appears to me that it does)
Turn off WiFi on the client device (iPad, MacBook, Windows laptop, KindleFire, etc)
Turn off Personal Hotspot on iPhone
Turn off Bluetooth on iPhone
Turn off WiFi on iPhone
Then turn on Personal Hotspot and allow it to automatically start WiFi and Bluetooth.
Turn on the client WiFi services.
Connection successful!
As I said, I sometimes need to perform the steps ablve twice, but it eventually works. It is incredibly frustrating to go through these hoops to make the device perform. I do not know precisely when the problem began to occur, but I don't think it did not occur on my iPhone 4s with IOS5.
Any help from the Apple guys would be appreciated. I think it is a software issue, because the shutdown of services and restart seems to resolve the issue. I guess I might take a trip to the Aple Store to have them look at this behavior.

Help intermittent problem with logging in

Help i have intermittent problem with logging in, sometimes it just comes up with the desktop without any icons or dock and i have to restart the server so i can log on properly, but it doesn't happen all the time, any ideas would be appreciated???

The clients login window just shakes and won't login. I did find one thing that helps some of my Mac Lab woes.
Some students get a dock that only has 3 icons. These students also will have saving and printing problems when they get this default dock.
I think some of the problems occur when the student gets over quota, some preference files get corrupted.
1. Student will login.
2. Open the student's home folder. Then open Library and Preferences.
3. Find the file com.apple.homesync.plist and delete it.
4. Empty Safari Cache and the user's Trash Can and make sure they are not over quota.
5. Logout and login.
This will fix some problems, but not the problem when students can't login at all.

You can't connect directly to the external drive, but should be able to use iTunes Home Sharing via the laptop.

I’m having an intermittent problem with my midi controllers triggering Mainstage 3.
I’m using a PreSonus Firebox audio interface.
It’s been working fine for months, but now when I first turn on the computer in the morning , I’m not able to trigger MainStage from the keyboard. I tried different midi controllers, different keyboards, different midi cords, and check midi preferences. The audio interface is working fine and is recogonized, but the midi doesn’twork. I re-started the computer several times and then finally it miraculously starts working again.
I’ve been having to this every day now. Any help or ideas is very much appreciated.

I Had the same problem with a FireStudio. Try unplugging the FireWire plug and the power plug. Wait for a few seconds, then plug both back in. The light on my FireStudio was flashing blue/red which means "not connecting." I did what I just described, and everything works again. Hope it works for you.

Hi,
There is no such PowerShell command can achiev this. Maybe you can use a script to get the user name with folder redirection enabled. However, I am not familiar with writing script, and it would be better for you to ask in script forum below for professional

SSIS 2012 is intermittently failing with below "Invalid date format" while importing data from a source table into a Destination table with same exact schema.

We migrated Packages from SSIS 2008 to 2012. The Package is working fine in all the environments except in one of our environment.

This looks like bug to me, Any suggestion?

Hi Mohideen,
Based on my research, the issue might be related to one of the following factors:
Memory pressure. Check there is a memory challenge when the issue occurs. In addition, if the package runs in 32-bit runtime on the specific server, use the 64-bit runtime instead.
A known issue with SQL Native Client. As a workaround, use .NET data provider instead of SNAC.
Hope this helps.

I got a new iphone 5c for Xmas and my laptop is registered with my iphone 4, which I no longer use or have hence the new phone lol. How do I remove the old info and register my new phone? Will it let me?

You do not register the phone with the laptop. If you are using the same Apple ID on the new phone as the old, you will have no trouble. Connect the phone and you can restore from a backup of the old phone, or just sync your new phone if it is already set up, with the laptop, managing your content in iTunes.

HP LaserJet M1212nf MFP Printer - Communication Failure with the scanner

Dear all,
May I kindly ask if there are any known resolutions in terms of a scanning issue with the HP LaserJet M1212nf MFP Printer?
When it starts scanning the printer only scans the up to the 3rd or 4th page, it stops in the middle of the sheet and produces an error message stating the following: Communication Failure with the scanner.
Are there any steps that may be followed in order to resolve the incident?
Many thanks in advance.
Best regards,
Ryan

Hi @Ryan_HP ,
I see that you are experiencing a communication error during scanning of multiple pages. I would like to help, but I will need some more information to provide you with the correct steps to resolve this issue.
If you are using Windows, download and run the Print and Scan Doctor. It will diagnose the issue and might automatically resolve it. Find and fix common printer problems using HP diagnostic tools for Windows?
Temporarily turn off any Antivirus Software, just to rule out any interference.
Try scanning again.
What operating system are you using?
How to Find the Windows Edition and Version on Your Computer.
Mac OS X: How Do I Find Which Mac OS X Version Is on My Computer?
How is the printer connected? (USB/Ethernet)
What were the results when you ran the Print and Scan Doctor? (did it print or scan, any error messages)
What scanning software are you using?
Have a wonderful day!
Thank You.

PlayReady failure with specific OS version of Windows 8.1 Update

Hello,
I'm observing a failure in my app during Smooth Streaming video playback using PlayReady DRM. The app is a WinJS Universal App solution for Windows Store and Windows Phone, using the latest updates for Visual Studio 2013, Update 4.
So far, the failure is limited to one specific version of the Windows 8.1 Update. I have two identical devices, both retail versions of the phone, that demonstrate this issue. Note, these same phones that fail with PlayReady can successfully
stream unprotected Smooth Streaming content.
My other five Windows Phone devices, with different OS version numbers, do not demonstrate the failure with the identical app installed. Therefore, I suspect the OS version may be the cause.
Failure description:
When I attempt to stream PlayReady protected Smooth Streaming video, the player initializes the media player and the MediaProtectionManager, but then displays the error state (The video failed to play. Try again.) immediately, and the following message is
displayed in Visual Studio:
MEDIA12899: AUDIO/VIDEO: Unknown MIME type.

Note, one of OS versions I've tested fails to stream the PlayReady protected Smooth Streaming content, and five other OS versions I've tested successfully stream the same video content.
Is this a known issue with a specific version(s) of Windows Phone 8.1?
Regards,
Andrew

Hello,
0x887A0004 equates to DXGI_ERROR_UNSUPPORTED. This error is usually generated when you are trying to use Direct3D features that are not supported. Different devices support different D3D features since they contain different video hardware. It is possible
that a hardware feature that is required by the license is not supported in the hardware / driver of the device. I would recommend that you check the license and make sure that it does not contain any hardware specific requirements such as HDCP.
In other words try playing content with the least restrictive license and see if it works for you.
I hope this helps,
James
