Router disappears from WiFi list when channel changes

On my Mountain Lion iMac, I've realized that my wireless router disappears every time the channel is changed on it.  And for me to be able to find the router again, I have to reset the router and start the setup process all over.
Anyone have ideas on what I can do to resolve this issue?

Over the past 3 months, I've tried all sorts of trouble-shooting steps I could find including the steps you've mentioned.
The best success I've had so far is to prevent the router from switching between B/G/N, which keeps the connection live the longest.
If I had to take a guess, the iMac is just terrible with wifi routers that allow multiple bands (B/G/N), and auto channel changing.
By the way, I do not have this problem with my iPod Touch, iPad 1, iPad 2, and Windows laptop.  I don't seem to have a problem when using bootcamp Windows on the iMac either.

  • Time Capsule disappears from device list when wireless is toggled

    When I toggle wireless on and off, either via profile or Airport > Wireless, sometimes my base station disappears from the list of devices in Airport Utility:
    Has anyone else seen this? My Time Capsule reappears after I close and reopen Airport Utility.

    I may not be understanding what you mean but unless you have the TC connected via ethernet it will disappear when you turn airport off, it would come back up when you turn it on but it may take a few minutes.

  • Tracks disappear from my iPod when I change them to Media Kind: Podcast from Media Kind: Music

    Hello. I'm running iTunes 11.0.1(12) in OSX 10.6.8. My iPod is a 160 Gb Classic (model A1238, I believe it's the newest generation, I got it about 6 or 7 months ago.) I manually manage my ipod, always.
    I listen to one podcast in particular with hundreds and hundreds of episodes that I like to keep listed as MEDIA KIND: MUSIC in my itunes library, but MEDIA KIND: PODCAST on my ipod. I know this may seem odd to some people, but it is how I like to organize. So, I download the podcast through itunes, change it to music and then change it back to podcast after I load it to my ipod. When I switch the media kind back over on my ipod (music-to-podcast,) the files disappear, no longer visible on my ipod through itunes (in podcasts or music.) The only way I can find them is to do a manual search on the actual ipod (not ideal.) The ipod is also at capacity, so I need to be able to delete these files, as needed, in order to clear space. So, my question is, how do I find them again in itunes, or is there another way to delete them without restoring the ipod. I manage music a lot differently on my ipod than I do itunes, so restoring it and reorganizing everything is a tedious task, that I'd rather avoid.
    I realize that the way I do things is unorthodox, but I fail to see why itunes can't manage something that seems as simple as switching the media kind back and forth. I had this problem with my old 160gb ipod classic and older versions of itunes, but I thought that this bug would be fixed by now with itunes 11.
    Thank you.

    iTunes is looking for your music in the default directory.  Since everything was moved, re-direct it with the instructions I gave you:
    In iTunes, click tools, and then preferences, then go to the advanced tab.
    If you know where the music is on the E: drive, select it from the iTunes media folder location option.
    It will reload all of the music to your iTunes - You can then select what music you want to add to your iPod.

  • I have added more songs to my library. Half of the library has selected ticks but when I click on any of the others to select them the whole song disappears from the list. Why and what can I do to fix?

    Hey Paul,
    If I understand correctly, it sounds like iTunes is not grouping the songs from a particular CD together. The cause could be something as minor as a misspelling or slight variations. For more information, see the following resource:
    Why aren't songs with the same album art grouped together?

  • HT5085 I have found that at least 3 music videos that I had previously purchased are not available in my I-tunes music video list.  I paid for them over a year ago, why are they not accessible, and why did they just disappear from my lists?

    I have found that at least 3 music videos that I had previously purchased are not available in my I-tunes music video list.  I paid for them over a year ago, why are they not accessible, and why did they just disappear from my lists?

    Have you deleted anything from your iTunes library ? Have you checked to see if they are still on your computer, but not listed in your iTunes library ?
    If not then do they show in the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store homepage for redownloading ? If they don't show there and others do and they are still in your country's store, then check to see if they are hidden : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4919
    If they are no longer in your store for redownloading (or you aren't in a country where music videos can be redownloaded) then you will need to copy them back from your backup of your library/downloads.

  • Firefox 8.0 occasionally disappears from task bar when minimized but keeps running

    Running Firefox 8.0 on Windows XP, have 12 tabs open. Occasionally, when I minimize Firefox, it disappears from the task bar. I know that Firefox is still running because one of the open tabs is a radio station stream on Silverlight. The only way to get Firefox back is to click a link in an email then Firefox will open in a new tab (it is my default browser)

    I am guessing it is because you minimise Firefox to the Windows Xp task bar but have ot either locked that or set it to be on top so it may disappear from view.
    When the task bar is visible left click any space area on the taskbar the popup will have options including
    * '''''lock task bar''''' if you tick that the task bar stays the same size
    * '''''properties''''' if you click on that you get other options for customising the task bar
    * also see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taskbar

  • Firefox start page disappeared from bookmark list and now I can't put it back. Whats going on?

    HP win 7 machine. Use firefox to open Charter email: no problem. Recently, my gmail acct (which I use infrequently) has appeared as my default , which I do not prefer, but cannot seem to change. While on the Charter email page, today, I tried to access Forefox start from my bookmark menu. It disappeared from the bookmark list. Got to the start page through a different route, but it would not bookmark at all.

    Make sure that you do not run Firefox in full screen mode (press F11 or Fn + F11 to toggle; Mac: command+Shift+F).

  • Layer Styles Disappearing from my list

    When I first launch Photoshop and load a preset layer style I can get a full list of available presets to load. After clicking on an element and actually using a layer style on it I no longer can get my full list of available presets to load. The list is cut to 1/3 of the original list.
    So the full list is available and in the folder but once using a layer style it seems most of the layers styles disappear from the load menu. I have had no problem with this for months and made no changes over the last few days so this is mind boggling.
    Is this a known bug? Any suggestions?

    Hi there! Because the forum you originally posted in is for beginners trying to learn the basics of Photoshop, I moved your question to the Photoshop General Discussion forum, where you'll get more specialized help.

  • IPod shuffle disappears from source list

    Each time I plug in my Shuffle to my computer, it shows up in the source list with the licensing agreement on the screen. No matter if I agree/save the agreement or cancel it, my Shuffle then disappears from the source list. I can't look at the songs on it or change any of the settings. I do have the latest version of iTunes and have updated the iPod, so I'm fresh out of ideas... Any suggestions?

    After connecting the iPod, quit iTunes if it is running.
    Then try using the iPod Reset Utility. It is different from Restore in iTunes.

  • My New Every 2 disappeared from VZW computers when they were correcting upgrade to replacement

    I have been a long time Verizon customer who has had New Every 2 ever since I started about 10 years or so ago. I used to have the old Western States calling plan which I switched to Nationwide 450 min plan 2 years ago when I changed to a Smartphone.
    I got my $100 New Every 2 discount fine on that phone. Now I hear it went down to $50. But mine has disappeared from Verizon records (except for notes) apparently as part of their mixup when I replaced the defective smartphone (HTC Touch Pro 2). It was approved about 8 mo into my contract, but I was having trouble deciding what to replace it with (plus I was sick for several months so my brain wasn't into thinking about that). Before the year was up, I called the VZW rep who had agreed to the replacement (it was working but the backlight wouldn't always come on--sometimes I had to keep pressing it multiple times, as well as other issues).  I asked specifically if I had to do the replacement prior to the year being up. He said no, it had been agreed to so I didn't have to actually do it before the end of the year.
    So I didn't. That led to multiple problems when I finally did replace it. Every step of the way, VZW was treating it as an upgrade rather than a replacement of the defective device.  They kept wanting to start a new 2 yr contract, etc & I kept telling them, no it was a replacement.  Wasted a lot of my time having to go over that each time I talked to a person. & finally, after i had adamantly refused to agree to a new 2 yr contract they said ok, but then I got a new 2 yr contract.  Ok, another call & they backed that out.
    But the upgrade date was Dec 2012 instead of 2011 as it should have been. Another call. Finally they fixed that, but in so doing, rather than restore back to the original contract, they had me on mo to mo starting at the time of the replacement. & somehow in all that, the New Every 2 discount disappeared from the contract.
    So I am just now upgrading--just got my new iPhone 4S which I trust will actually be a reliable smart phone for a change--but since the New Every 2 wasn't in the computer but just in the notes, I wasn't given the discount on the price, but she did give me a credit for that amount.
    OK, now i'm concerned about next time. Is New Every 2 still available for those who have had it long term?
    & how can I get it back in my contract, rather than just in the notes, so next time I don't have to go through all this again?
    my previous phone had been a basic flip phone which just worked so I kept it for about 5 yrs before upgrading to the smart phone. I intended to keep it for several years, not expecting to have such defective WinMob phones. The replacement was a downgrade with less features & it has freezes & the alarms (which I count on) don't work well. I know smart phones are more complicated, but still. With 2 yr contracts it would be nice to have devices that actually last & work well for 2 years rather than having to have 2 devices, both of which have had issues during the 2 yr contract.
    I trust the iPhone 4S will not only be a very useful & fun phone, but also a reliable one for a change, that I will keep for a while. But I am concerned about the status of New Every 2.
    & now, soon I'm off to get my new iPhone 4S set up & activated at the Apple store.

    Thank you!
    I actually just got off the phone with Verizon and thoroughly confused the Verizon Rep because he has never had that question asked before! He finally "tested" the new phone's activation status to see if the phone has been activated to my account, and he said it had (even though it is not actually associated with my number), and I can do what I want with the phone- store it, use it, let someone else use it, and not worry about the 30 day policy biting me in the b*tt with a huge charge of the phone's retail price!
    Phew! I like it when it doesn't take weeks to get an answer (have had MANY hours on the phone with Verizon regarding diff. issues, and am always worried that problems and questions will take way too much time to answer).

  • LOV not validating from the list when tabbed out

    Hi,
    I have an item attached to an LOV generated dynamically based on another LOV. When I change the value in the parent LOV, and just click on the child item(which still has old value) and tab out, it does not validate from the list which has new values. The old value in the field is actually wrong one. However, it shows new values when I click on list of values for the child item.
    I am also setting the property VALIDATE_FROM_LIST to PROPERTY_TRUE. The code to set_lov_property to the dynamic query is generic and is used by both key-listval and when-new-item-instance triggers. Except in key-listval I added list_values.
    I am using forms 6i version.
    Can any one tell me where I am doing wrong?
    Thanks,

    Neeraja,
    Its because the item is not validating again, as there is no change in its contents. So you have to tell oracle to validate that item. For that in the WHEN_VALIDATE_ITEM trigger of the parent item, write,
    SET_ITEM_PROPERTY('<block_name>.<child_item_name>', ITEM_IS_VALID, PROPERTY_FALSE);So when you tab out from the child item, the oracle will validate that item even if there is no change in the data.
    Regards,
    Manu.
