Remote app wifi drops out constantly

Hello,
Just a quick question - When I use the Remote app on my iPhone the wifi drops out all the time. I'll open up the application, it works fine, I change a song, then after 2 or 3 minutes I'll go back to put on a different song and get the Cannot connect to iTunes screen. Also the wifi icon up the top of my iPhone isn't on. I can fix this by going in to Settings > Wifi and it finds the network, then I can go back in to the remote app but obviously this is annoying to do every time I want to change a song.
I'm not using a router, just created a wireless network for my phone through Aiport on my mac. What turns the wifi connection off after a while if it's not constant in use, is it the computer or iPhone?
What settings can I change so that this connection is constant? And yes the stay connected setting in the remote app is turned on.
Thanks for any help : )

I'm experiencing the same problem. I recently got the latest gen Apple TV. I couldn't believe the instability of the Remote app's connection to the Apple TV.
Prior to the new ATV, I used a Mini and Front Row and the previous version of the Remote app worked flawlessly. Once connected, I could lock my phone and come back to it periodically and it was always connected in would respond near instantly.
Now unfortunately, every time I lock the phone the remote app loses the connection and I have to wait for it to find the ATV, restore the connection, load the library. It's maddening. I mean the AirPlay stuff is great but a stable consistent connection is the foundation to everything.

Ever since upgrading to lion my wifi has been dropping out constantly is apple going to fix this?

Ever since upgrading to lion my wifi has been dropping out constantly is apple going to fix this?

There are two possibilities, 1)it is a software problem which will be fixed.
2)It is a hardware problem, and youll have to take it to an iStore.
BUT there is something you should know.
If your under apple care, its free.
If you are not under apple care, itll cost you something to find out where the problem is (i dont live in the US so I dont know) and then extra cost for the reapair itself.

Iphoto keeps dropping out. Sometimes other programs do too such as Software Update. They other programs seem to drop randomly but iPhoto drops out constantly. Is there a solution?

iPhoto constantly keeps dropping out. Other programs do at times but iPhoto drops out constantly. Does anyone know what causes this?

Apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
Fix #1
Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
Select the options identified in the screenshot.
Fix #2
Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the Library ➙ Rebuild Library menu option
In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
Click on the Create button.
Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments but not books, calendars or slideshows. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

Additionally I've noticed that periodically my wifi will drop out, and when I go to Airport Utility my Extreme is unavailable. I don't know if this error and the two the wifi drop outs are linked or not. At first I thought it was the new firmware for the basestation, but now I'm not so sure because last time I launched airport utility and the extreme was unavailable I saw the basestation come back on line.
One final note. I have a home server on a mac mini (ML Server essentially for ituens shared liberary). All the macs access this server.
Thanks in advance

Frustratingly, since I upgraded to Yosemite 10.10, I too am having the worst problems with WiFi dropping out. I've never had this problem before on my iMac 27-inch mid 2011 model. Turning WiFi off and then back on again sometimes works. Help please.

Frustratingly, since I upgraded to Yosemite 10.10, I too am having the worst problems with WiFi dropping out. I've never had this problem before on my iMac 27-inch mid 2011 model. Turning WiFi off and then back on again sometimes works. Help please. I've already tried a lot of your suggested fixes, but without success. Why hasn't Apple Fixed this?

Please test after taking each of the following steps that you haven't already tried. Stop when the problem is resolved. Back up all data before making any changes.
Step 1
Take the applicable steps in this support article. The Wireless Diagnostics program generates a large file of information about your system, which would be used by Apple Engineering in case of a support incident. Don't post the contents here.
Step 2
Disconnect all USB 3 devices. If you don't know which are USB 3, disconnect all USB devices except keyboard and mouse.
Step 3
If you're not using a wireless keyboard or trackpad, disable Bluetooth by selecting Turn Bluetooth Off from the menu with the Bluetooth icon. If you don't have that menu, open the Bluetooth preference pane in System Preferences and check the box marked Show Bluetooth in menu bar. Test. If you find that Wi-Fi works better with Bluetooth disabled, you should use the 5 GHz Wi-Fi band. Your router may not support it; in that case, you need a new router.
Step 4
Open the Energy Saver pane in System Preferences and unlock the settings, if necessary. Select the Power Adapter tab, if there is one. Uncheck the box marked
Wake for Wi-Fi network access
if it's checked.
Step 5
Open the Network pane in System Preferences and make a note of your settings in the Wi-Fi service. It may be helpful to take screenshots of the various tabs in the preference pane. If the preference pane is locked, unlock it by clicking the padlock icon and entering your administrator password. Delete Wi-Fi from the service list on the left by selecting it and clicking the minus-sign button at the bottom. Then recreate the service by clicking the plus-sign button and following the prompts.
Step 6
In the Wi-Fi settings, select
Advanced... ▹ TCP/IP ▹ Configure IPv6: Link-local
Click OK and then Apply.
Step 7
Reset the System Management Controller.
Step 8
Reset the PRAM.
Step 9
Launch the Keychain Access application. Search for and delete all AirPort network password items that refer to the network. Make a note of the password first.
Step 10
Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store, or go to another authorized service center.

SCCM remote control keeps dropping out when another network adaptor loses connection

Hey guys,
Hopefully someone will be able to help me out
at work, we are running SCCM 2012, and I use SCCM 2012 config manager to manage the clients etc
We have a particularly annoying issue with SCCM remote control; it constantly drops out when a network connection on the client machine disconnects or changes state, even if its not interface I'm remote controlling through
Here's an example for you:
a laptop with a wired, and wireless connection:
I remote control the machine through the wired network address (lets say 192.168.0.1), but if the wireless connection drops out (someone turns it off or it breaks) the remote control client will kick me off, lock the screen, and I have to wait 20-30 seconds
before it will accept my connection again
This happens with any network adaptor that's installed on the client
Here is a copy of the logs re-creating this issue: https://www.dropbox.com/s/nu4w28d44xky3rg/CmRcService.log
(I've edited it to take out usernames and IP addresses as they are publicly accessible)
So my question, does any one know how to fix this issue? I see it uses WMI, is there anyway to get WMI to ignore an interface?
Thanks heaps,
Harry

This is going to be done by design for security reasons. If the network connect for whatever reason is down the pc will automatically be locked.

Wifi drops outs

Hello, over the past few weeks I have noticed that when I have BT fon and BT openzone turned on. The wifi on my bt home hub 2 tends to drop out a lot more and the signal not be as strong. Nearly twice a day my laptop and other wifi equipment around the house will disconnect from the router and wont reconnect for a good 2 to 5 minuets. But when I have bt FON and openzone turned off on the hub. The wifi never disconnects ever.
I have used inssider to see if there are any other routers causing interference. But I can only pick up one other and that's extremely low signal and on a different wifi channel.
Is there anything i can do to help stop this wifi disconection with bt fon turned on.?
Thanks
Thanks
Solved!
Go to Solution.

What is probably happening is that your devices are trying to connect to BTOpenzone or BTFON isstead of your main SSID. This is a very common probem and there is some help on the link below.

Connection with Time Capsule dropping out constantly

Hello everyone,
I have a MBP with retina display running on the last version of OSX. I bought two weeks ago a Time Capsule 2TB. The intend of this last buy was to improve the strengh of my wireless connection. This did not happen as I found myself with a WIFI network slower than the one provided by my old modem, which was acquired from my DSL provider two years ago! Anyway, I was not too unhappy with having my TC as it meant that I could access it from anywhere and use it to back my MBP. I also use it to store my iTunes library. However, the wireless connection between my MBP and Time Capsule keeps dropping out. Listening to music is almost impossible and very frustating! Backing up takes forever! I would be happy to blame the distance between my MBP and the TC but that absolutely does not make any sense to me: I run FileBrowser on my IPAD2 and it plays music perfectly well from the same exact same distance. It seems a bit ridiculous to me!
Has anyone encountered the same problem? I am statring my MBP with retina display that I have already brought back to the apple store once!
Thank you for your help!

Question,...
Could my issue with connection dropping be because the MBP is trying to swap between 2.4 and 5 ?
Yes, they are designed to switch to the better band automagically.. voodoo black arts .. it does lead to issues.
The TC itself will swap channels automagically if there is interference.. so you have two items.. using voodoo to find the best channel and best band.
If you live in apartment building for instance surrounded by wireless.. the TC could be swapping constantly.
So there is no point.. turn off the auto swapping channels.. and change the 5ghz name to swap band swapping. At least to test.
Locking the TC channels,..do you mean channel 1, 2,3 ?
2.4 ghz has only 3 channels that do not overlap.. so it is useless testing 1,2,3 -- 11.
Test channel 1, 6, 11 pick the best of these.
Using 5ghz there are a greater number of bands.. it has poor range even though it suffers less interference.. so pick a channel near to 40.. I think that is a default.. and pick a high channel like 158.. exactly which doesn't matter.
So your TC is setup.. new name.. TC
Name for 2.4ghz wireless TC24ghz
Name for 5ghz wireless TC5ghz
(hard disk name should also have no spaces.. this is important for later OS like ML).
Set the wireless for each band to a channel.
wpa2 security.
See how it goes.
The fact is the TC could still be faulty or your MBPr.. but it is more likely setup is wrong. Or you live in an area of overwhelming wifi interference.

Airport Express dropping out constantly so I can't print wirelessly

I have an iMacG5 running OSX 10.3.9. I have a DLink wireless router which creates my wireless network that the iMac connects to. Also, as my printer as at the other end of the room, I have an airport express connected via USB to the printer so I can print wirelessly. Everything worked like a dream for about 12 months. Until recently I had no security on this network and although I was aware this was risky, I was reluctant to change anything because it all worked so well. But my paranoia got the better of me and I changed the DLink to WPA security. Ever since then, the airport express has acted very strangely. The connection dropped and I was required to do a hard reset. I did that and everything worked. I felt so smug that I had worked out a computer issue! Little did I know that as soon as I shut down the system the airport express dropped out again. I have since discovered that I don't actually need to shut down for the thing to drop out. It just does it of its own accord.
I have contacted AppleCare 3 times and spent a total of about 4 hours on this to date. No luck. They suggested interference. However my airport icon usually shows either 3 or 4 bars and there is no difference when the thing drops out.
The only thing I have learned is that Airport Express does not have to be reset all the time. In my situation, it is best to just unplug it, let it rest for about 30 seconds and then you should be able to see the thing in the airport admin utility. It does take a while and several rescans in the utility, but eventually it does show up. This at least means I don't have to constantly set it up to join the network.
In fact, really it is a doddle to print! I don't know why people like to just go File-Print when you can go through the delight of getting out of your chair, unplugging Airport Express, waiting 30 seconds, looking at the dust under the cupboard thinking I really must get that, plugging the airport express back in, watching the light change from green to amber, to flashing amber, wait for it...wait for it...it's not happening....waiting...finally - green!. Back to the computer, go to Finder - Applications - Utilities - Airport Admin Utility, not showing up, rescan, not there, rescan, rescan, rescan, still not there, rescan, oh good, airport express is showing up. Now, go to Printer setup utility, delete the printer that is there, then add printer, select rendezvous, add my hp, OK......now I can hit File - Print.
Has anyone got any ideas on how I can join the boring legions of people who are oblivious to the joys of printing my way?

Hi,
I am currently replying to this as it shows in the iChat Community.
I have asked the Hosts to move it to Snow Leopard (you should not lose contact with it through any email links you get)
I also don't do Wirelss printing so I can't actaully help either.

WIFI DROPS OUT AFTER MOUNTAIN LION UPDATE

Since upgrade to mountain lion my wifi keeps dropping out after sleep i have ipad and that is ok.

Had the same problem and this worked for me:
Try deleting following two items:
~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.dock.plist
~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.dock.db
Make sure you take a screenshot of your current dock since deleting these files will reset your dock to default.
Now open terminal and do a sudo reboot w/ your password.
This solved the problem for me.

Wifi drop outs

Hi, its me again, having just recieved a new hh3 as my last was faulty, i find that the wifi keeps dropping out at random intervals some times 15 seconds all the way up to 3 or 4 minutes, when it does this the blue wifi light on the front of the hub goes out for a second, i have tried every single channel, 802.11 b/g, and a factory reset, is it faulty ? i havent the time to spend an hour on the phone to tech support, should add it drops multiple devices all at the same time not just one.

Ha, this is actually funny, i got some time to ring tech support, told them the above problem he started doing tests, starts to tell me the problem is my white open reach modem, i say no way, he says it is defiantly without a doubt the open reach modem, i say hold on i had thie hh3 replaced yesterday, for a different reason but we wont get into that, so i plug in the old hh3 and everything is dandy, i say see it works its not the open reach modem, he then lost the ability to speak anymore so i hung up, talk about chocolate fireguard.

BT Infinity dropping out constantly

I've had BT Infinity since April had some teething problems when I realised the speed drops when using wifi/home plugs and got equipment ungraded to help with this although there's still a drop in speed when not directly LAN cabled in (which is difficult if not impossible in my property).
Anyway I accept this since BT are getting 80mps to the router.
Next problem is that from around the end of June my connection started dropping several times an hour. When it does this new pages go blank or I can't connect. Lights at the hub remain constant as if no problem there. This happens even when I'm cabled in (LAN) so know it's not a wifi/home plug issue.
I've been through customer service several times, we've checked settings at my pc/laptop, we've reset home hub. BT then suggested I needed HH4 which was released only weeks after I had my FO upgrade but to get it I either had to pay over £100 or go into a new contract. At the time I was so desperate I didn't notice I was being moved from free calls 24/7 to free calls only at weekends. Anyway I was put into the new contract and didn't read the blurb because I trusted I was being kept the same or equivalent and I just wanted my broadband to be fixed. The HH arrived and it still was dropping out. BT said must be faulty HH4 so sent a replacement. Same thing happening with new one.
I'm pretty much fed up and wish I'd never upgraded, it's been problem after problem. I still have iplayer interrupted and half the time I am sitting here waiting for the thing to reconnect.
I have spoken to a couple of other people and they say their FO (FTTC around here) is also dropping out but they don't seem to be complaining. Is this something to do with too many people on the network - some times of day are better/worse than others.
I am really fed up of this, have spent a long time trying to fix it and just wish BT would say "Yes it's our lines" but everytime they say the line test comes back fine. People in my area are crying out for FO but I don't think it's as good as made out.
I've not changed anything in the time that it took for it to start dropping out (well apart from upgrading wireless cards and home plugs), I just got up one morning and it started doing it. I am now in a contract which doesn't suit my calling pattern, and that I can't get out of to go anywhere else, and I feel if I did the service would just be the same anyway. Every time I see a BT Infinity advert I feel very frustrated. My copper wire service was better, slower but it was consistent.
I have phoned and even used the email service to complain about this, but all I got in reply to the email was a phone call when I was driving and unable to use my phone, they left voicemail and sent an email which basically said you knew the T&C of the new package from the email we sent when changing to it, and BT Infinity is dealt with by the technical help which you can phone on 0800...........thanks BT.
Very annoyed and fed up.

I posted on the other thread because I thought the problem was similar and because despite there being plenty of other replies on other threads mine hadn't received a reply yet and was falling off the front page. Apologies for my impatience.
Sorry if it looks like I posted contradictory information for clarity this is the situation.
I didn't have any drop outs when I switched off the hub and connected my laptop directly to the modem with the LAN cable.
When using the HH4 I get constant drop outs both when cabling in via LAN to the hub, or if I use wifi. So it's not just a wifi problem the drop outs happen when I cable into the hub and infact there's only one device I use wifi (laptop) and whether I LAN or not when the hub is used I still get the drop outs.
The drop outs started in June when I had a HH3, so BT went through all the resets, channel changes etc and sent me a HH4 which involved me entering into a new contract. There were still drop outs so I went through channel changes, reseting/restarting the hub, still drop outs so they sent me a replacement HH4. It's still dropping and doesn't matter whether I connect via LAN or wifi the drop outs still happen just the same. The only time they stopped was when I did what was suggested on the other thread, turned the hub off and connected via the modem. Since then I've reconnected the hun and back to the usual drop outs which are around 3 per hour.
