Since MacOS 10.6.8 update, AirPort not working
I updated my MacBookPro with MacOS 10.6.8 and since then my wifi connection stopped working. For some reason, AirPort has disappeared. I did the following suggestions:
Restart the MacBook Pro
Deleted Mac System preference files
Ran Disk Utility
AirPort Utility cannot make a connection.
I attempted to rebuilid the connection via the System Prferences/Network, but AirPort does not appear on the Interface list to create a new service.
When the MacPro is connected directly to Internet via the Ethernet port, it works fine. We use LinkSys for the router. We have another older MacBookPro that was also updated and it is not having AirPort issues. I already consulted the AirPort troubleshooting guide on the apple site.
Any other suggestions?
Amy
Mine did the same thing on a later model MBP - I deleted my pref file restarted and it did not work - I plugged in an ethernet while it was running and then did one more reset at random and it came back on. very random.

Widgets, Safari, Software Update -- All not working since I got Comcast
My Dashboard, Safari and Software Update have not worked since I got Comcast internet. I'm pretty sure their installer screwed up something, but I don't know how to undo it. Firefox, Adium, Mail and other internet applications all work great.
I tried to fix the Software Updater problem a while ago and was able to get it to see what is available (by adding swquery.apple.com to the sites that bypass proxy settings), but it still refuses to download anything.
I can't help but think there's one thing that's causing all this trouble. Any thoughts?You can have up to 5 computers authorized at one time with iTunes. There's no reason to deauthorize until you want to go over the limit. You can do this once a year. Do a clean install of the OS on the mac you are selling.

I DON'T WANT TO UPGRADE OR HAVE AN ADD ON EVER, DISABLING UPDATES DOES NOT WORK, HOW DO I KILL ALL MESSAGES FOR UP GRADES AND ADD ON'S FOR EVER, ONCE AND FOR ALL, COMPLETELY, THE END AND NEVER BE BOTHERED AGAIN EVER! ALSO IF I KILL MYSELF I WILL HOLD YOU PERSONALTY RESPONSIBLE.edit
There is a world of information in these forums if you use the search function near the top right of this page. Just type in NAS for example and you get many threads on the subject (marked with a green checkmark if it solved the question) another example would be Airport Exterme and sound system. Once you formulate your ideas better then specific questions can be addressed one at a time. You may find that a less expensive choice for a server might be a mac mini. Good luck with your project, ask more specific questions and update you systems profile.

I tried redownloading and reinstalling but I am back to where I started from, can someone HELP?
ThanksThis is asked and answered dozens of time each day. A forum search (right side of this page) will find answers to many questions like this quickly.
Disable your firewall/security software and try again. -
Automatic update does not work
On my both computers (Windows 7, Window 8), the automatic update does not work at all, although it is activated in the options. All I get in the Firefox info box is that an update is available, with a link that I have to follow to download the installation file and install it manually. No difference even if I wait for weeks, the update is neither downloaded nor installed automatically. The problem persists in all Firefox versions since version 3.6.16 / 2011 (the last update in the chronicle). Note that the automatic update seems to perform well in the Windows XP mode of my Windows 7 system !
It will update eventually; there may have been availability problems on the update servers.

Windows update does not work after using System recovery disk
I have a Toshiba Satellite c655 with WIndows 7 64 bit Home premium. The hard drive died on it, so I purchased a new hard drive and purchased the appropriate Recovery media from Toshiba. I followed the directions and installed the 3 disks on to the new hard drive. But Windows update does not work I get the following error: Windows update can not currently check for updates, because the service is not running. You may need to restart your PC No matter what I try, I can not get it to work. And it will not let me install Windows Defender either. Any ideas or help would be appreciated. Thank you in advance for your time on this matter.
Solved!
Go to Solution.I get errors saying A problem is preventing the troubleshooter from starting.
That makes two similarities to the following thread. Both Windows Update and Troubleshooters fail to work correctly.

Safari is not working on the Mac. Internet is fine. mail, App Store etc all working and connecting to Internet fine. Done the latest software update, still not working. When selecting a web address from bookmarks or typing in search bar, partial blue bar only and coloured wheel appears.
From the Safari menu bar, select
Safari ▹ Preferences ▹ Extensions
Turn all extensions OFF and test. If the problem is resolved, turn extensions back ON and then disable them one or a few at a time until you find the culprit.
If you wish, you may be able to salvage the malfunctioning extension by uninstalling and reinstalling it. That will revert its settings to the defaults.
If extensions aren't causing the problem, see below.
Safari 5.0.1 or later: Slow or partial webpage loading, or webpage cannot be found -

WSUS "Self-update is not working" after new certificate
After creating a new self-signed certificate in SBS 2008 wizard we get the following error:
Text: Self-update is not working
Source: Windows Server Update Service
Event id: 13042
I know that it must be something simple. But I can not find the solution.
Can anyone help me with this problem?
ThanksHi,
Based on your description and this error message, this issue may be caused by:
The Default Web Site is not running and/or has a site binding for SSL (HTTPS).
The Selfupdate virtual directory has the "Require SSL" checked under the SSL settings.
For more details, please refer to the following KB and check if can help you to solve this issue.

If anything I misunderstand or any update, please don’t hesitate to let me know.
Hope this helps.

My auto updates are not working! I cannot find where to download Camera Raw 8.1 for Photoshop CS6 (Windows 8 64 bit). My Camera Raw is now at 7.1. I had the online Adobe folks tell me to just download all updates manually. That's great, yet I cannot find camera raw 8.1 to download...
Please help.
Thanks, Janetthere's a direct download link on this page: https://blogs.adobe.com/lightroomjournal/2013/06/camera-raw-8-1-and-dng-converter-8-1-now- available.html

Java 7 Update 11 Not Working with Firefox
For me, the problems described in the thread "Java 7 Update 10 Not Working with Firefox? " Java 7 Update 10 Not Working with Firefox?
are continuing with Java 7 Update 11.
Windows 7 64 bit
Firefox 18
The problem is that "Java(TM) Platform" is missing from the plug-in list.
I've uninstalled Java 7 Update 11 and reinstalled Java Update 9 which correctly installs the plugin and restores Java functionality which was broken immediately upon installing both Java 10 & 11.981243 wrote:
So why not using Ju11 ? You can workaround the issue. It would sucks but still be safer than using Ju9.
Also ask Mozilla forums if Firefox has options where to search for plugins.
Or try 64-bit Firefox.As I explained in both threads ...
Java 7 Update 10 Not Working with Firefox?
Java 7 Update 11 Not Working with Firefox
... neither jre7u10 nor jre7u11 are working ... and they are BOTH broken with the same problem ... "Java(TM) Platform" pliugin is missing from the plug-in list. It cannot be enabled, because it simply is NOT there. A suggestion was made the jre7u12 will be the "fix" for this issue ... so I installed the Update 12 Preview and it sis ALSO broken, no "Java(TM) Platform" in the plug-in list.
The ONLY Java version that actually works for me is jre7u9.
As far as installing Firefox 64bit ... I see no future in installing a browser that has been discontinued.

Even though Mozilla relented due to backlash, I continued development will be a somewhat low priority.

hi,
i have ztable
mandt key field
ztest1 key field
ztest2 key field
ztest2 non key field
when i'm trying to modify any key field, MODIFY keyword is actually adding a new record in the Database. it is because the new combination of key fields is unique.
i tried using update statement . Update is not working as the combination key is creating a new record which is not present in Db and hence , its not updating.
do we have any workaround on this ??
if i update the key field same field should be updated with other fields intact
please help.key field means unique record.
if u try to change a key field it will add a new entry.
to an existing entry with a key combination u can change only the non-key fields.
else u need to delete the record combination and add the new combination.
