Power Outage and Router Notworking

Earlier today we had a poweroutage and now my router is not working. I tryed power cycleing and it still does not work. I also tryed power cycling and resetting the router which did not work. Currently the only way to get internet access is to plug directly into my cable modem.
The router is also display flashing lights on1 34 and Internet even with no cables plugged into the router.

What is the model and version of your router?
You need to try again to reset the router to factory defaults.
To reset your router to factory defaults, use the following procedure:
1) Power down all computers, the router, and the modem, and unplug them from the wall.
2) Disconnect all wires from the router.
3) Power up the router and allow it to fully boot (1-2 minutes).
4) Press and hold the reset button for 30 seconds, then release it, then let the router reset and reboot (2-3 minutes).
5) Power down the router.
6) Connect one computer by wire to port 1 on the router (NOT to the internet port).
7) Power up the router and allow it to fully boot (1-2 minutes).
8) Power up the computer (if the computer has a wireless card, make sure it is off).
9) Try to ping the router. To do this, click the "Start" button > All Programs > Accessories > Command Prompt. A black DOS box will appear. Enter the following: "ping 192.168.1.1" (no quotes), and hit the Enter key. You will see 3 or 4 lines that start either with "Reply from ... " or "Request timed out." If you see "Reply from ...", your computer has found your router.
10) Open your browser and point it to 192.168.1.1. This will take you to your router's login page. Leave the user name blank, and in the password field, enter "admin" (with no quotes). This will take you to your router setup page. Note the version number of your firmware (usually listed near upper right corner of screen). Exit your browser.
If you get this far without problems, try the setup disk (or setup the router manually, if you prefer), and see if you can get your router setup and working.
If you cannot get "Reply from ..." in step 9 above, your router is dead.
If you get a reply in step 9, but cannot complete step 10, then either your router is dead or the firmware is corrupt. In this case, use the Linksys tftp.exe program to try to reload your router with the latest firmware. After reloading the firmware, repeat the above procedure starting with step 1.
If you need additional help, please state your ISP, the make and model of your modem, your router's firmware version, and the results of steps 9 and 10. Also, if you get any error messages, copy them exactly and report back.
Please let me know how things turn out for you.

I have a 21.5 inch desktop running OS X Mav, I had a power outage and now some of my archived files have a 2056 year on them.

I have a 21.5 inch desktop running OS X Mav, I had a power outage and now some of my archived files have a 2056 year on them. The computer time and date is correct. Is there a way to get them corrected?

there is no external backup
That means there is no backup at all. Shut down the computer immediately and don't turn it on again until you have an external drive (preferably two) to dedicate to backup and are ready to back up. Then see below.

Hyper-V manager will not start after power outage and memory corruption

We suffered a 2 hour power outage and upon power restoration I had a corrupted memory strip. replaced memory and cannot start Hyper-V manager due to lost mmc file or does not exist. virtual machines are running fine I just can't manage or create any additional.
This is on win server 2012.
Anybody....Please Help!!!@!@!

Try:

Mac Mini wont start after power outage, and problem copying iPhoto library. HELP!

    So, recently there was a power outage in my neighborhood, the power was intermitent for about 2 hours, during this time my mac rebooted itself several times, but on the second time it rebooted the power went out during boot, then the power finally went out for good, it was back in about 3 hours, but when i finnaly turned on my mac it got stuck at the Apple logo with a spinning wheel and a progress bar that wouldnt go past 40%, when i boot holding command -v it said that there were a lot of errors which were automatically fixed, except for one, "Incorrect Thread records" or something like that.
    I have another partition with Mountain Lion installed for emergencies, the other one with Lion became inaccessible to mountain lion or any other OS X version, but oddly enough, I can access my Lion partition via HFSexplorer and see all my files untouched.
    My main concern are my pictures in iPhoto, and thats about 36Gb of data, I want to backup them to my windows pc by copying the whole iPhoto library package, but HFSexplores for some reason cant copy the folders with date (XX/XX/XXXX) with the /, and it keeps changing them to XX_XX_XXXX and I know that would pretty much break my iPhoto library!
I googled my drive problem and people said that I need a Disk Utility called DiskWarrior, but I cant seem to find how to to use it, I got a copy from a friend, it was the digital version of the boot disk which need to be burned to a dvd.
Any help would be appreciated, and sorry for the bad english

OK, we need more info about your Mac. Do you know how much RAM it has in it?
If you don't know the model, find the Serial# & use it on one of these sites, but don't post the Serial# here...

HT202159 how long should an upgrade to Mountain Lion take? Our original download was interrupted by power outage and now seems to be taking forever.

How long should an upgrade to Mountain Lion take? Our original download was interrupted by power outage, it seems to be taking forever.

Update2: There is something very wrong with wireless on mountain lion recovery. I don't know what the problem is, but this link may explain:
http://osxdaily.com/2012/08/10/os-x-mountain-lion-10-8-1-beta-released-for-dev-t esting-may-include-wi-fi-fix/
Wireless recovery would start out with over 25 hours estimated and kept on failing. It turns out to be a two step process of downloading a few Mbytes then a 4Gbyte .dmg file, but I couldn't even download the Mbyte file. I bought the thunderbolt to gigabit ethernet adapter, plugged it in, restarted recovery and download of a little more than 4Gbytes took less than an hour. My limiting factor was probably comcast home internet rate of 12Mbps. The wi-fi wireless connection should be able to do over 100Mbps, so wireless shouldn't be much slower than wired, except wi-fi wireless is broken. Now that ML is installed and updated, wi-fi seems fine now, as I am using it right now, but I haven't tried downloading a big file yet.
Don't use wi-fi wireless for Mountain Lion recovery.

Power Outage and Now Ethernet Not Working and When Imac Goes to sleep...

Last I had a power outage, now my ethernet connection does not work, I have switched cable powered everything off and back on, still nothing. Also since the outage when my MAC goes to sleep it does wake back up. Any Ideas?????

Russ,
Try booting up from the Tiger install disc (put disc in, restart, hold C key down as soon as you hear chime, release C when you see the spinning gear). Then select your languag, go to Disk Utility, select your startup disk and choose Repair Disk. Then quit installer and reboot normally.
Then when booted normally, do to Disk Utility, select your startup disk and Repair Permissions. Post back.
It is not good for a computer to experience a power outage while booted up. Various things can get messed up. After you get straightened out, I would strongly suggest getting an uninterruptible power supple (UPS or battery backup). I use one made by APC and think they are a very important accessory to have.

Power Outage and MBP battery

I live in the Northeast in the US where we just had a huge ice storm and lost power for a few days.
Just after I lost power, I continued to use my MBP using the battery. At about 17% of the battery power left, I put it in sleep mode. After maybe about 7-8 hours, I took it off sleep mode and it had 0% of its battery life left and immediately it went back to sleep like it was supposed to.
I left it in that state until we got power back about a day later.
After the battery was fully charged, I noticed that the battery wasn't lasting very long. I checked under system profiler and it stated "check battery." This battery is about two months old and should not be doing this.
Here are the stats:
Serial Number: Sony-ASMB012-3934-c439
Manufacturer: Sony
Device name: ASMB012
Pack Lot Code: 0001
PCB Lot Code: 0000
Firmware Version: 0110
Hardware Revision: 0500
Cell Revision: 0303
Charge Information:
Charge remaining (mAh): 3068
Fully charged: No
Charging: Yes
Full charge capacity (mAh): 3787
Health Information:
Cycle count: 25
Condition: Check battery
Battery Installed: Yes
Amperage (mA): 1447
Voltage (mV): 12429
Would this issue have anything to do with leaving it in sleep mode with 0% for about a day or so? If that's the case, I realize this is my fault and I should have shut the computer off. But if not, should I contact Apple support and attempt to get a battery replacement?

My battery did the same thing without the benefit of a power outage. Was running at 93 percent health for months and then the charge dropped to zero while the computer slept overnight; it's never dropped 40 charge points while asleep. System Profiler had the "check battery" flag up. After a full charge, the health was at 66 percent; a few days later it showed 90, then 95, then started toggling between 65 and 85 with most of the time spent under 80. Again this is "health, not percent charge.
I tried the overnighter again, starting at 55 percent charge, and turned the MBP off. The next morning it had dropped 45 charge points with nothing running. When I removed the battery to reset the SMC, I noticed what looked like a dab of blue-gray paper maché about 1/4 inch (6mm) wide between the flat bottom plate and the main body of the battery. It would not scrape off.
I took the computer to the local AASP and the tech did the routine nodding head thing while I prattled on about the recent health percent roller coaster. However, when I removed the battery and showed him the spot of goop, he suddenly got more alert and said that was a definite leak and immediately ordered a new battery. (My MBP has another month on warranty).
Check all the edges for a pale blue-gray deposit. Mine was not immediately obvious. I don't know if such leaks would be covered if the computer were not in warranty.

Unable to get my tabs back after power outage and "restore previous session" doesn't show up.

Well, I've spent most of my day trying to figure out how to fix this. My power unexpectedly went out overnight and I left my computer on. When I woke up, i saw that the computer was off. So I started my computer, but when I went to get onto Firefox, none of my windows and tabs were there. (and I did have a ton of tabs open.) There wasn't even a "Restore Previous Session" icon to press on the Firefox homepage or a "Well, this is embarrassing" window. I tried opening "sessionstore.js" and "sessionstore.bak", but then a window came up titled "Windows Script Host" and said "Microsoft JScript Compilation Error." Then all there is to do is press "Ok". (By the way, at another time today when I tried opening a .js file, it said "Windows can't open this file" and it wanted me to choose the program I wanted to use to open the file, or use the internet to find a program. I chose Notepad, but then it was just a bunch of letters, words and symbols.)
I've also tried entering "about:sessionrestore" to get my windows and tabs back and then it says "Well, this is embarrassing." and "Firefox is having trouble recovering your windows and tabs." And there are no windows and tabs showing up below that sentence, with check marks, like it is when session restore has worked for me in the past. The only thing that worries me is that I did restart my computer between when I first started it this morning and now, when I'm writing this. I wanted to see if the "Restore Previous Session" icon would bring up my missing windows and tabs from before. But all it brought up automatically were the current windows and tabs that I have open right now. So now I'm wondering if I've permanently lost those tons of tabs that I had open before the power went out.
The other thing is that when I first got onto Firefox today, I could see all of my history from the days, weeks, and months past. Now I can only see today's history. I know I pressed something when I was trying to fix things but I don't remember what I pressed. Maybe that changed whether or not I could see the previous months' history. I did try "places.sqlite", "places.sqlite-shm" and "places.sqlite-wal" to restore my history, but again it said "Windows can't open this file" and it wanted me to choose a program to open the file. So again I chose Notepad, and it was just a bunch of letters, numbers, and symbols.
Hopefully someone may have an answer for me. Thanks!

Yes I can understand you being confused there is an awful lot of information you need to take in and learn as you encounter such a situation. I will try to expand my explanation to cover the points you ask.
''right click the file and select "restore previous versions", right?''
That is correct when using Windows to try to recover for instance files where the working fie is corrupted, but a previous version worked
If you have no previous versions available from Windows you need to work on whatever you do have. With any file restore operation it is always a good idea to make copies of not only the originals but also the restored files.
If you restored the ''places.sqlite'' with Windows that could possibly have resulted in a copy overwriting your working file that is even worse than the original file.
When you restore a file using the Windows OS it restores the files in their ordinary working location and they should function as expected without needing to do anything else. Generally it is probably best to try such restores when the files are not in use and in this instance that means when Firefox is closed.
For the benefit of any other readers of this thread note : <br />The places.sqlite is in the Firefox profile and easiest to find before closing down Firefox as the ''troubleshooting information page'' (''about:support'') may be used to find it.
* [[Profiles - Where Firefox stores your bookmarks, passwords and other user data#w_how-do-i-find-my-profile]]_how-do-i-find-my-profile
The ''places.sqlite'' database is the only file Firefox itself has with the full ''History'' information in it. The database also contains bookmarks but Firefox should have some other backups of those. If the database is deleted Firefox will restore the database but all it can do is add back bookmarks information from its backups the History is lost.
There is almost no chance of getting the History back unless there is another copy of that database. Either one Windows is able to recreate, or one that was somehow created by another method, that normally being the user deliberately making a manual backup of your profile or places file in advance. Or maybe having in place other backup procedures.
'' am I supposed to double-click the file?''
That is not going to help in these circumstances. There are advanced methods of studying the files but right clicking does not help in this instance.
Open tabs information is stored in the series of files ''sessionstore.*'' It may take rather a lot of messing about to to get any useful information out of whatever files you have. It would normally probably be a lot quicker just going back to the sites concerned, but that is made more difficult if you have overwritten the History database so you may need to try if the tabs were important to you. I can give more details in another post if you need to try that
We could have a lot more luck with your bookmarks. Did you bookmark most of the sites concerned ? If so then at least you have a good chance of finding the sites again.
Have you already got a fairly complete listing of your bookmarks in the Firefox bookmarks library/menu ? If you need to try to get back lost bookmarks that existed in the last few days but not are not present right now make a backup copy
*Of the profile folder called '''''bookmarkbackups''''' ( With its contents ! )
* ''places.sqlite'' Remember whenever attempting restoring bookmarks always backup the database file ''places.sqlite'' first.

Power outage, and now can't access networked drive

Hi,
Hope someone can help with this. Recently, we had a power cut. When everything came back on, the PCs on out network, and the macs with OSX had no problem loggin into our Buffalo TeraStation, accessing the share folder, and seeing the files. However, two macs still on OS9 can connect as quests, can see the share folder, but it shows up empty (zero items)!
Any help would be most gratefully received.
Cheers,
Kev.

Hi,
Thanks again for all your help, but unfortunately, still no joy. Oddly, both Macs can see and connect to the buffalo drive; and can see files and folders on there, except for the one folder that contains our backups. Again oddly, I created another folder on the drive (called it backup two) and the macs can see it and, when I transer some of the files from the original backup folder into the new one, they become visible to the two OS9 macs! Of course, I could just copy all the files frmo the old backup to the new one, and all would be well, but, (a) it would take ages, (b) some of the files won't copy over for some reason (c) we wouldn't know how to fix the problem should it recur.
Again, any help would be gratefully received.
Cheers,
Kev.

What to do when you have a power outage and my iphoto photos are gone

I was workng in iPhoto on a photo book when the power went off. After the power came back on, I turned on my computer and returned to my project in iPhoto, and every photo was gone....disappeared. It looked like I just installed iPhoto with nothing in the events or photos. What do i do???
My photos are backed up, but the book does not back up. So, that means I have to start my book from scratch and import the photos again!! I cannot get back all the hours I've worked on this project.
Question: Is there a way to retrieve my photos and all my previous projects in iPhoto?
--Elaine

For iPhoto v7
Try these in order - from best option on down...
1. Do you have an up-to-date back up? If so, try copy the library6.iphoto file from the back up to the iPhoto Library (Right Click -> Show Package Contents) allowing it to overwrite the damaged file.
2. Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.
3. If neither of these work then you'll need to create and populate a new library.
To create and populate a new iPhoto 08 library:
Note this will give you a working library with the same Events and pictures as before, however, you will lose your albums, keywords, modified versions, books, calendars etc.
In the iPhoto Preferences -> Events Uncheck the box at 'Imported Items from the Finder'
Move the iPhoto Library to the desktop
Launch iPhoto. It will ask if you wish to create a new Library. Say Yes.
Go into the iPhoto Library (Right Click -> Show Package Contents) on your desktop and find the Originals folder. From the Originals folder drag the individual Event Folders to the iPhoto Window and it will recreate them in the new library.
When you're sure all is well you can delete the iPhoto Library on your desktop.
In the future, in addition to your usual back up routine, you might like to make a copy of the library6.iPhoto file whenever you have made changes to the library as protection against database corruption.

Power Outage and iphoto

I was using iphoto when the power went out. It ran for an hour to recover when I logged back on. Now 70% of the thumbnails are blank. When I open a blank thumbnail, the image is there. Also the same picture flashes in the blank thumbnails.

You really need to purchase an external hard drive and start backing up immediately. Bad things happen and without a babkup you will lose all of your files including your photos sooner or later
for now backup your iPhoto library, depress the option and command keys, launch iPhotomand rebuild your library

Power Outage, and OMG... WOW...

Well I finally got Solaris 10 installed after doing a little looking and finding out that my graphics card was unsupported, but the onboard card was :)
I installed it, booted up, started using it - and the power went out.
Now the system is trashed, and cannot be booted.
Will the next version of Solaris use a different filesystem?
Cannot trust an OS that will corrupt my data everytime the power goes out. Hurricane season approaches.

That's very odd. Solaris is well known for NOT trashing the disk when sudden power losses occur. The current file system is very well designed. The new ZFS filesystem is even better, however you can't use that for some of the system slices (yet)...

Printer and power outage and wifi

I have had several HP printers, with my latest being the HP 4630 and had the same problem with all of them. When the power goes out the printers do not remember the wifi network and password when the power comes back on. I have to use the wizard to reconnect them to my wireless network as if they have never been connected. I have to identify which network is mine and reenter the password.

Have you tried re-configuring the printer to join the wireless network using the printer's control panel? It's possible you may need to reset the printing system and start over (all printers will be deleted and need to be added again).

As regards getting the iPhone to print - is the printer Airprint capable? If not, you should be able to get it to work by installing something such as this:

Power outage and now Skype won't open (Fixed)

What it said in the title.
When I try to open Skype a new process is started and it appears to be doing something but nothing actually opens. (I'm computer illiterate but the process is about 70,000 K which seems large enough to actually be doing something)
I can attempt to re-open Skype but all that does is stack new processes.
I uninstalled Skype and re-installed and ran into the "problem connecting to download server" and I did all the things pertaining to that:
SkypeSetup.exe
SkypeSetupFull.exe
SkypeSetup.msi
But after all that I still can't get Skype to "open".
...Right then, it's been 30 minutes since I last tried to fix it and for old-times-sake I tried to open it one more time and now it's working.
*sigh* I'm going to post this anyway cause something was wrong and something with the "fix" didn't work until enough time passed(?)

Hello Elena,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities. I found some steps you can take to get you back on track with your Apple TV.
I recommend reviewing the sections titled "First things to check" and "Network troubleshooting" in the following article:

After shutting down my computer or when we have a power outage and I re-boot, the print is very faint and sketchy and highlights become a very light blue. How do I prevent this?

I may be in the wrong category. Any time I have to re-boot my computer and then bring up Firefox I find the text difficult to read. It is faint and the print is sketchy. There are no lined spaces for gmail messages, i.e., no tables - just one open page with a list of messages. All boxes, etc., are pale blue instead of black on white. I don't know how to fix this. Eventually, it fixes itself but in the meantime is very irritating.

Solved it. Thank you very much for that!
