Perpetual Scanning For Networks

My iMac displays the wi-fi networks of some 20 neighbors and perpetually scans for networks for the entire time I'm online. I also get a window that says "None of your preferred networks are available" even though I'm online using my own network. How can I prevent the networks of all of these nightbors from showing up on the network list, stop my iMac from constantly scanning for other networks and asking me if I want to join them (remember, I'm already online!), and close this unwanted window?

Have you checked Apple Menu, System Prefrence, Network, Wi-FI?
Is Ask to join networks checked? if so, have you tried un-checking it?
also, while in wifi, have you checked your prefered networks list?
Advanced... Button, WiFi Tab. On the prefered network list, do you see any of your nabors networks and or any networks that do not need to be on the list? if so, have you deleted them?

Iphone 4 with ios 5 and 6 with intermittent wifi. Sometimes I can find my networks but they don't stay and sometimes my phone cannot scan for networks

I never had a problem with ios 4. I add an issue with my last iphone 4, my fault. Apple sent me a new phone with ios 5. Worked great for a couple of weeks. Then my wifi started dropping. Not a huge deal. Picked it up again. Then it happened more frequently and the wifi dropped. Not happy. Then it stopped locating my home router completely. "Could not scan for networks". Awesome. So I updated to ios 6. WORSE. Wifi greyed out. So I found a solution (thank you) from someone on the forum to stop all running programs (home menu twice and hit x to programs on there) and shut phone off for 5 minutes. No more grey-out wifi, but scanning still didn't work. But then occasionally it did. Weird. I've tried all the 'creative' suggestions like resetting networks/ phone, router, etc. This is not a problem with just a few phones. I have seen several posts from people who are having this same problem. Some say it's software; some say hardware. I don't know what to think. Now it's back to 'could not scan for networks'. I've tried to change settings on my iphone and router. I don't know how to reset my router to factory settings (Cisco), but am working on that. Seriously though... I shouldn't have to jump through hoops here. Apple should be bending over backwards to resolve this annoying issue. Yet.. no word from Apple. No timeline for this fix. I have run the gamuet (sp?) on fixes for all kinds of wifi issues. I feel like I've had them all short of water damage (absolutely no water has touched my phone through my cage-like case). So. On Monday... I may have to take my phone in to an Apple store to see if I can get a replacement. Software/hardware/who cares. I shouldn't have to search on here for a solution. The answer SHOULD be easy and resolved. I'm thoroughly annoyed.

Restoring from backup does not seem to always restore the password for email accounts.

TS1398 iPhone 4s no longer able to scan for networks

It appears my iPhone 4S no longer has the ability to scan for networks, so I'm unable to get WiFi service. All other devices in my house (husband's iPhone, iPad, computers) are connected to wifi. I've reset my iPhone network settings twice. I've tried also manually entering the network to which I receive the message "Could not scan for for wireless networks." Is there a way to fix this myself, or do I have a hardware issue? Thanks!

Hey,
Install the HP Easy Scan app from the Mac App Store, then open it from the Applications folder:
https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/hp-easy-scan/id967004861?mt=12
Once you are done scanning click the Save button, may you select JPG from the app?

TS1398 MY IPAD KEEPS SAYING COULD NOT SCAN FOR NETWORKS

y does my ipad keep saying cannot scan for networks,ive used the wifi already but now i cant

Usually it's because you are not connecting to the internet via wifi.
Look at iOS Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1398
iPad: Issues connecting to Wi-Fi networks http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3304
iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4199
Additional things to try.
Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
Change the channel on your wireless router. Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.

Scan for and connect to networks from an openbox pipe menu (netcfg)

So the other day when i was using wifi-select (awesome tool) to connect to a friends hot-spot, i realized "hey! this would be great as an openbox pipe menu." i'm fairly decent in bash and i knew both netcfg and wifi-select were in bash so why not rewrite it that way?
Wifi-Pipe
A simplified version of wifi-select which will scan for networks and populate an openbox right-click menu item with available networks. displays security type and signal strength. click on a network to connect via netcfg the same way wifi-select does it.
zenity is used to ask for a password and notify of a bad connection. one can optionally remove the netcfg profile if the connection fails.
What's needed
-- you have to be using netcfg to manage your wireless
-- you have to install zenity
-- you have to save the script as ~/.config/openbox/wifi-pipe and make it executable:
chmod +x ~/.config/openbox/wifi-pipe
-- you have to add a sudoers entry to allow passwordless sudo on this script and netcfg (!)
USERNAME ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: /usr/bin/netcfg
USERNAME ALL=(ALL) NOPASSWD: /home/USERNAME/.config/openbox/wifi-pipe
-- you have to adjust ~/.config/openbox/menu.xml like so:
<menu id="root-menu" label="Openbox 3">
<menu id="pipe-wifi" label="Wifi" execute="sudo /home/USERNAME/.config/openbox/wifi-pipe INTERFACE" />
<menu id="term-menu"/>
<item label="Run...">
<action name="Execute">
<command>gmrun</command>
</action>
</item>
where USERNAME is you and INTERFACE is probably wlan0 or similar
openbox --reconfigure and you should be good to go.
The script
#!/bin/bash
# pbrisbin 2009
# simplified version of wifi-select designed to output as an openbox pipe menu

# zenity
# NOPASSWD entries for this and netcfg through visudo
# the following in menu.xml:

# the idea is to run this script once to scan/print, then again immediately to connect.

removed -- Hi-res shots available on my site
NOTE - i have not tested this extensively but it was working for me in most cases. any updates/fixes will be edited right into this original post. enjoy!
UPDATE - 10/24/2009: i moved the awk statement from wifi-select directly into the script. this did two things: wifi-select is no longer needed on the system, and i could tweak the awk statement to be more accurate. it now prints a true percentange. iwlist prints something like Quality=17/70 and the original awk statement would just output 17 as the quality. i changed to print (17/70)*100 then bash trims the decimals so you get a true percentage.

well, just to be sure you're doing it right...
he above is only an adjustment to the OB script's print_menu() function, it's not an entire script to itself. so, if the original OB script shows output for you with
sh ./wifi-pipe
then using the above pint_menu() function (with all the other supporting code) should also show output, (only really only changes the echo's so they print the info in the pekwm format).
oh, and if neither version shows output when you rut it in a term, then you've got other issues... ;P

Ipad2 "cannot scan for wireless networks"

My iPad2 is about a year old and was able to scan and connect to networks just fine up until a week a go when it stopped scanning for networks. I am usually able to connect to the wireless network at my school and home [along with other various hotspots like Starbucks] just fine but within the last week have been experiencing no luck in connecting to any of my potential wireless networks. I have tried resetting the network settings, rebooting the ipad, my airplane mode is truned off and my routers have been reset and set back to original settings, in a nutshell I have pretty much tried everything the "Apple Support Community" has told me to do and still have no luck. Please help.

MacBook Pro Retina late 2013 not scanning for new WiFi networks

My late-2013 Macbook Pro w. retina screen is usually connected to my workplace wi-fi network.
Sometimes I need to disconnect from the usual network and connect to my Samsung S4's personal hotspot network.
I start the hotspot on the phone and I click on the wi-fi icon on the top bar.
Since a few weeks, the MacBook appears not to scan for new networks and does not show the phone's hotspot.
Earlier it used to display a "scanning for networks" message, and in a few seconds the phone hotspot's SSID appeared.
I am able to connect to the phone's hotspot using a workaround: from the icon, I click network preferences at the bottom of the list.
From the Network Preferences pane, in the middle, there is a droplist. I shows just the current network (the workplace network). I click the double arrow icon on the right and select "join other network". Then I cancel the popup window. The list now shows all networks around, including my phone's hotspot.
Is it a common/known issue? Will it be fixed? Thanks in advance

Apparently, the 10.9.2 update fixed this.
the "Wi-Fi: Looking for Wi-Fi networks..." is back.

Every few seconds, WiFi says: "Searching for Networks", alternating with WiFi: "ON"

WiFi seems to be scanning for networks every few seconds. In between, it is showing ON.
Other computers on the same home wireless network are fine. My home network appears
to be strongest, why does the Apple WiFi keep scanning? internet seems to be intermittent.
This started a couple days ago, no change in hardware for a long time.

It's functioning as intended.
OS X is assuming that you clicked the Wi-Fi icon for a reason: to be given the option to connect to a different wireless network should you so choose.

TS1398 this didn't help me at all. out of the clear clue my iPad can't even scan for wireless networks. even when I type in my home wireless network name. my phone can connect to it but for whatever reason my iPad won't. nothing I've tried works. I'm ****

believe me I've tried EVERTHING and my iPad still 'can't scan for wireless networks'. it happened all of a sudden and is really really frustrating. I really don't want to have to drive 40 minutes to the nearest 'genius bar'. I'm about ready to break this thing over my knee. I've even tried the frig trick. it worked for about 30 seconds. and then? nothing. any non sarcastic suggestions?

Minecraft PE: "scanning for WiFi Games..." never finds any on same network

My daughter wants to play Minecraft PE with her friends when they are here at the house, but I cannot get things to work. I suspect this is an Airport issue because we have done everything that the Minecrafte forums suggest to do to get this to work.
We use a TimeCapsule for our wireless network in the house. It is configured in Bridge mode because the FIOS modem between it and the Internet doesn't accommodate any other configuration.
All the iOS devices (iPads, iPod touches, etc.) are all on the same wireless network in our house. They all have their servers set to visible.
Yet when the kids want to join a game on a friend's device (in the house, on the same wireless network, and servers set to visible), they just get "Scanning for WiFi games...."
I have googled this problem, and the only discussion which seems pertinent is this (http://goo.gl/jMlYZ) in which the solution is to "make sure you have 'Enable Wireless Isolation' unchecked." The poster was talking about the set up for a NetGear router.
Airport Utility does not give access to such a setting as far as I can tell.
Any ideas?

Okay, nevermind the sync for now. I did know it has to be connected to power, but that is irrelevant since my devices won't appear in iTunes at all.
I am pretty sure the issue is with iTunes, as the it persists no matter what network I am on. I just moved recently, and now have internet with an entirely different provider and still no luck. Today I changed my network name and password, reconnected my computer, phone, and iPad all to the same network, no change. I also tried ending the "AppleMobileDeviceHelper" process in Windows Task Manager repeatedly, a solution I saw in a thread for the same issue - still nope. I have Norton Internet Security and manage all firewall setting through there. iTunes and all related incoming and outgoing connections are allowed, so it's not my firewall either. I am at a sincere loss with this.

OSX 10.9.2 iMac won't scan for new Wifi networks.

Sometimes I will tether the mac to my cell phone (because roomates hog bandwidth). The problem is that when I click the Wi-fi icon in the upper-right hand corner, it shows Wifi networks it has found before but it will not scan for new ones (such as the tether I just started). I have mac laptops and this works just fine on older versions of Mac OsX. Is there something I'm missing?
<Edit> I just found that I can open the "Wireless diagnostic tool" and then choose "Utilities" and then ask it to "Wi-fi scan". It's just hard to believe that something that used to happen with one click is now buried under secret menus and hidden options.

It's just hard to believe that something that used to happen with one click is now buried under secret menus and hidden options.
That is not normal because I am running 10.9.3 on my MBP and it is constantly looking for networks. However, mine is a regular router, not a phone. I could be wrong, but I thought I read that cell providers did not support using computers with their cell network as it wasn't meant for "heavy" traffic - not sure if that could have something to do with your problem.

IPhone 4S - Could not scan for wireless networks - help needed please

Hi
Can anyone offer any advice please.
My 4s has developed an wifi issue. It cant scan for wireless networks My bluetooth is intermittent also.
I have turned it on/off, rebooted, reset all networks, reset to factory settings, set to airplane mode, set to do not disturb - everything and all to no avail.
I am under a two year contract with Vodafone and went into their branch at Merry Hill, Dudley today and they failed to help me saying it was nothing to do with them.
I am at a loss as to what to do. I have not had any accident with my phone and it is still in mint condition.
Can anyone please offer any suggestions on what to do.
Many thanks.

Apple's out-of-warranty policy is a feeble attempt at covering up it's issues and is a clear cut demonstration for their lack of respect for its user base. Their WIFI/Bluetooth dropping issues have been around for several years now and it started within the last 3 IOS updates. Apple engineers acknowledge this problem and don't have a solution yet... this was confirmed at the Genius Bar at their Nashua, NH outlet. My phone is 6 months passed warranty and my Verizon contract isn't up for renewal for another 6 months.
There are a lot of complaints about this (a LOT), yet Apple continues to stick its head in the sand instead of owning up to providing shoddy hardware and/or glitches software. They certainly don't want to be in the business of replacing phones, so they put the onus on us by charging $200 for a replacement... such a deal for Apple!
Apple's support communities are basically useless on this subject with a lot of screwy so-called solutions to work around their flaws. I've seen one fix where you heat up the phone with a hairdryer until the temp warning appears and then refrigerate it for 10 minutes... then BINGO, it's all fixed! Ya right!!!
Resetting network settings, or all settings (including a complete reset) is ineffective and appears to do nothing more than to further upset Apple users once they realize that they have wasted their time following Apple's so-called fix.
I just wonder if or when Apple pulls it's collective head out of the sand will they be able to see that their competition has surpassed them by leaps and bounds. There really isn't any good reason to stick with Apple now-a-days since their conscience passed away. Their competition offers superior technology while Apple continues to impress up with new connector technology and placement of their sockets.
I am finished with Apple and am incredibly sick of their spoon feeding what they want rather than what we want.
The best way to make Apple improve is to provide them with a taste of their own WIFI/Bluetooth offerings by DROPPING THEM!
They have abandoned us and have no problem trying to charge us to replace their flawed technology instead of doing the right thing!
