Smart Watch 3 frequently disconnects from Xperia Z2 smartphone

Hello everyone,
I have s Sony Smart Watch 3 connected with a Sony Xperia Z2 smartphone. It seems that 50% of the times I need to use it, my watch shows that it's "disconnected" (little cloud icon with a bar over it), and can't get the results I'm looking for. My phone is never more than 0,5 feet away from me.
At first, I suspected this was due to the Stamina power saving mode on my smartphone that cut the Bluetooth / NFC connection while the phone was locked. Hence, I turned all power saving features off, but still get the same issue.
I've tried rebooting both devices, unpairing them and pairing them again from scratch, to no avail.
Can anyone help me solve this ? My watch would be useless if I can't get it to work reliably.
Thank you,
/ Enja_Ino
Solved!

My initial thoughts were Stamina mode as I had this issue but since disabling it I haven't had an issue unless I move out of range, so I'm at a loss apart from taking drastic measures like doing a full factory reset of both the watch and phone and if the issue still remains then either returning your device to the place of purchase or contact Xperia care http://www.sonymobile.com/global-en/support/contact-us/

E3200 - frequently disconnects from Microsoft Communicator 2007

I have installed a E3200 with a wired connection from my laptop to the E3200. Most of the time I can tell is it dropping connection because my connection to Microsoft Communicator 2007 and HP Virtual Rooms will disconnect, and I will become unavailable. I frequently will get kicked out of conferences and out of the Communicator connection. It will always reconnect, and seems to work ok until the next disconnect . The disconnects seem very random and it is not long enough most of the time to drop my VPN. However, if I by-pass the E3200 and connect directly to the cable modem, I never get disconnected. I have tried not connecting with VPN, and it does't affect the problem. I have also tried a new cable, and new port on the E3200. I lowered the MTU to 1400. Has anyone seen this issue?
My firmware is 1.0.01 on the E3200.

Over here, can you please confirm it to me that when you are facing issues of getting disconnected with your Microsoft Communicator 2007, is it just about getting disconnected from this very application or the overall internet disconnects?

Frequent disconnection from services

Hi, for years I've been a satisfied customer, but recently my internet, (along with my television signal and phone) would stop working.
Strangely enough it happens at exactly XX:05 and XX:33, about every thirty minutes.
I'm not completely sure what is going on, but the WAN Coax signal on my MI424-WR will turn off, television will black out, and my phone will ring but with no one on the other end.
They will eventually restore to normal, but this is quite annoying. Can anyone help me out?

Sorry to hear about the frequent disconnects. Sounds like an issue with your ONT with all the services effected like that. I have sent you a private message to get more information.

AIM account frequently disconnects from Messages 7.0

So i got the new Macbook Pro Retina Display and i got the free upgrade from Lion to Mountain Lion. I filled in all my account details and all that on to my Messages and it works just fine, except for the fact that my AIM account disconnects frequently and for about 10 - 15 minute periods of time. It worked fine on the old iChat on my previous Macbook which was running Snow Leopard. Is anyone else getting this? Any solutions?
Thanks!

Hi,
I would start in Messages Menu > Preferences > Accounts and the AIM account in question
Log out (Untick the "Enable this Account" box).
Go to the Server Settings tab
Untick the SSL option.
The AIM SSL servers can drop the connection more often that the regular ones.
Also if the SSL connection is lost messages (or iChat) need manually reconnecting as a SSL reconnection is not automatic like the regular server is.
If that does not work I would delete the com.apple.ichat.AIM.plist
I would phrase the way to ge there as
In the Finder use the Go Menu
Hold down ALT key
Select the Library that appears
Open Preferences and find file
Drag to Trash

Lumia 820 frequently disconnects from facebook cha...

Many times a message called cant connect to message is thrown even on wifi and 3g. Restart is required often for that

hi mate,
have you checked the condition of your SIM card and also your network signal and strength with your network carrier, and that your data plan is activated with your carrier. also check that you have updated to the latest Portico update for Windows Phone 8, and that you have the latest Nokia system app updates from the Store for your device.

Disconnected from iPhone repeatedly

Hi.
The Apple Watch remains connected to my iPhone for most of the day when I am at work at my desk, or walking around.
However, it frequently disconnects itself when I am exercising outdoors. I cycle 30mins to work. When I start, I turn on Workout > Outdoor Cycle. As I cycle to work, I keep my iPhone in my jacket pocket. This morning, for example, I must have had to re-connect my Apple Watch to my iPhone at least 5-6 times. I'd cycle for a bit, check watch: connected. cycle for a bit, check watch: disconnected. I toggle Airplane Mode to reconnect to phone. check watch: disconnected. Repeat.
It's really annoying. While cycle time tracks while disconnected, distance travelled and calories etc does not.
I'm using:
- Apple Watch Sport 42mm Space Grey
- iPhone5s iOS8.2
Anyone know what us causing the Apple Watch to frequently disconnect from iPhone?
Tim..

I have been having a "disconnect" problem since receiving the watch. I have tried all of the instructions in the manual to reconnect as well as calling tech support. Nothing seems to work except pushing "reset" on the watch. This deletes any credit cards that were authorized for Apple Pay and requires that you re-enter the card info and obtain re-authorization from the credit card company. It also deletes any info collected in the Activity App and probably other things as well. It is not a solution that I want to continue to use and the cause of this "disconnect" has not been determined.
Please tell me how to do the "reboot" that you mention for the phone and the watch. I will try that next. Thanks very much.

Smart Watch 3 keeps disconnecting from phone

My swr50 keeps disconnecting from my motoG phone. I haven't figured out the circumstances for this...it seems random...I realise that I haven't had any notifications for a while, and none of the "OK Google" stuff works.My phone app says that it's connected, but it clearly ain't!

I wonder why it would disconnect that much,no problem like that on Z1. Do you have any task killers or antivirus?
What about stamina?

How can I edit lightroom 5 smart previews on mac book pro (mbp) when the lightroom 5 master image files are on my external hard drive is disconnected from the mbp

How can I edit lightroom 5 smart previews on mac book pro (mbp) when the lightroom 5 master image files are on my external hard drive is disconnected from the mbp? So far when I try to disconnect the external HD from the mbp, I get the following pop up window: The disk "external hard drive A" couldn't be ejected because "Lightroom" is using it. Quit that application and try to eject this disk again. When I do that and restart Lightroom 5, the Adobe Photoshop Lightroom - Select Catalog screen pops up but doesn't list my external hard drive A as a choice.
I've reviewed Adobe's Lightroom Help | Smart Previews Lightroom 5 web page and still haven't been able to figure what I'm doing wrong. Any help would be appreciated.

Your internal HDD. by default, is named 'Macintosh HD'. From what information you supplied, it looks like there is already a Lightroom catalog installed on you local (internal) HDD using the standard naming convention Adobe uses as well as a Lightroom catalog on your external drive which you created. To be sure of which catalog Lightroom is loading when it starts up, To do this, start Lightroom as you normally would. After it starts, select the Lightroom menu item, then select the Catalog Preferences item and finally, navigate to the General tab. The Location information will tell you exactly what catalog Lightroom is opening by default. This will likely be the Photography Mac Book Pro Versions catalog on your external HDD. Once that is confirmed, you are ready to proceed. As an additional test/verification, you can shut down Lightroom and, this time, start Lightroom while holding down the ALT/OPTION key. This will cause Lightroom to pause and display a screen which will allow you to chose a different catalog to open. Navigate to the /Users/[user name]/Pictures/Lightroom folder and select the Lightroom 5 Catalog.lrcat file. When Lightroom comes up, there should be no previews or folders as this catalog should be empty. Now you can be certain which catalog is being used and which catalog has all your data and you are ready to migrate your current catalog. Shut down Lightroom.
To migrate your current catalog, use Finder to locate your Photography Mac Book Pro Versions folder on your external drive. Select the folder and select COPY from the context menu. Next, use Finder to navigate to the /Users/[user name]/Pictures/Lightroom folder on you internal HDD. You can start at the Macintosh HD level and work your way down by opening each level (Macintosh HD/Users/[user name]/Pictures). Select the /Pictures folder and then select PASTE... from the context menu. When the COPY/PASTE is complete, you should see the following files on the Macintosh HD:
Macintosh HD/Users/[user name]/Pictures/Lightroom/ and
Macintosh HD/Users/[user name]/Pictures/Photography Mac Book Pro Versions
The Macintosh HD/Users/[user name]/Pictures/Lightroom folder will contain the empty default catalog the Adobe created when Lightroom was installed and Macintosh HD/Users/[user name]/Pictures/Photography Mac Book Pro Versions will contain a copy of the catalog you created on your external HDD.
You are almost done now. Make sure your external drive is still attached for this step. Restart Lightroom using the ALT/OPTION key again. When the Select Catalog screen appears, select the Choose a Different Catalog button (lower left side). When you do, a Finder window will open to allow you to navigate to a catalog of your choosing. Navigate to Macintosh HD/Users/[user name]/Pictures/Photography Mac Book Pro Versions and select the file Photography Mac Book Pro Version.lrcat. This is the copy you just created. Select the Open button and Lightroom should start. You should see all of your previews and settings just as before. Also, in the left hand panel, all of your folder should show up and none of them should be dimmed and none of your previews should display a small exclamation point badge. Either a dimmed folder name or an exclamation point badge indicates that Lightroom can't find the associated image file. If everything looks good, go to the Lightroom menu, select Preferences and then select the General tab. Under Default Catalog, select an option to either load the LAST catalog opened or select the Users/[user name]/Pictures/Photography Mac Book Pro Versions catalog from the drop down. Shut down Lightroom and then restart it normally. This time, when Lightroom starts, you should be viewing the new copy of your catalog. You can confirm this by looking at the General tab on the Catalog Preferences screen (Lightroom/Catalog Preferences menu items). Shut down Lightroom once again and this time, eject your external drive before restarting. This time, your folders in the left hand panel will be dimmed but you should be able to work with your smart previews. If Lightroom should display a Select Catalog screen with the external drive detached, double check your settings as it indicates Lightroom is still looking at the copy of the catalog on the external drive rather than the new copy you made.
Finally, if you are seeing dimmed folders and/or exclamation point badges with the external drive attached, this indicates a problem. You can select any folder and select Update Folder Location from the context menu. This will allow you to navigate to the copy on the external drive and select it. Lightroom will then update the catalog (select to synchronize the content). This will not only clear the dimmed folder problem but also remove the exclamation point badges for all photos in that missing folder. However, it may indicate that not all went well with the copy of the catalog so make sure to verify all went well. You can use the Get Info option on the two folders. You should see the same number of files/folders for both the copy on the internal drive as well as on the external drive but you can't rely on the byte count because of the possibility of differences between the geometry of the two drives. Hope this all helps!

My xperia disconnects from home wifi

Hi, I have the Xperia Z3, Until recently, my phone was fine. About 3 weeks ago it started disconnecting from my home wifi, this is extremely annoying. It does it when it feels like. Mostly when ive been idle for a bit, but does occur at other times too, in the middle of a written conversation it disconnects.
Things ive tried:
Resetting Router, moving it.
Resetting apps on phone to default.
Forgetting the Wifi connection and re connecting it.
Its doing my head in now need it sorted.
Any suggestions / fixes?

Hi Moreton,
Discussion Welcome to the community! Since you're new please be sure that you have checked out our Discussion guidelines
Are you by chance using any Anti virus or Task manager or even battery saving apps? if so they may be causing the drop in the Wifi connection. I suggest looking through and removing any if you do have them.
let us know how you get on.

Why does my Apple TV disconnect from the internet while Im watching Netflix? If I reboot my Apple TV, it seems to stay connected longer, but it still disconnnects me from my Wifi every 10 mins or so. I am not connected thru the eathernet cable.

If you try by Ethernet you can verify if the issue is with your WiFi network or if your appletv is defect as most users do not suffer as you do

Time Capsule Frequently disconnecting users from drive partitions

I have a pretty unique setup and situation with our Time Capsule causing us some major problems:
We are an after school music program for teens with 7 iMacs that members use to create and edit music in GarageBand. Their files are stored on a partition of a Time Capsule that they're all given a folder on to store GarageBand projects in. Believe it or not, for the past 4 years this has worked perfectly. They've been able to open GarageBand projects from the Time Capsule's drive partition and edit, record and mix Garage Band projects in real time all while streaming over wifi.
About 3 or 4 months ago in March 2013 (I'm thinking there was a Time Capsule firmware and/or Airport Utility update around the time it started) about 5 minutes after anyone opens their GarageBand projects from the Time Capsule partition, their iMac disconnects from the Time Capsule's partition and Garage Band basically goes haywire. It sort of moves their project to "no man's land", it's not on the computer's local hard drive and it can't see it on Time Capsule, so when you try to record it says "drive partition full" and even worse, if you try to save Garage Band usually crashes and loses their work. Even if you try to do "Save As" and move it to a local location it'll still crash and lose their work.
Dragging their file from the Time Capsule partition to the computers desktop and working on the project locally for the day works, but isn't really a good solution as kids have trouble grasping file management and lose their files between computers when they work this way.
Our Time Capsule is about a year and a half old, Firmware version 7.6.3 and Airport Utility on the Mac I use to admin things is 6.3.
A weird problem I know, but we are desparate for help!

7.6.3 firmware definitely has more bugs than previously.
IMHO the first step is to downgrade the TC.. use 7.6.1 or even 7.5.2 on an 18month old TC might work better than any 7.6 version.
Secondly 6.3 is problematic as a utility.. apple seem to have made ipv6 local-link a necessity..
See the rather belated advice..
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4597
Downgrade firmware is easy in v6 utility.
Simply select version with option key held down. Select the version you want to use and it will downgrade.. (or maybe that is an upgrade!!)
You can also use 5.6 utility to manage the TC.. since it is not the latest greatest which needs the latest not so greatest utility.
How to load 5.6 into ML.
1. Download 5.6 for Lion.
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1482
Click to open the dmg but do not attempt to install the pkg.. it won't work anyway.
2. Download and install unpkg.
http://www.timdoug.com/unpkg/
Run unpkg on the desktop.. it is very simple.. drag the AirPortUtility56.pkg file over to unpkg.. and it will create a new directory of the same name on the desktop.. drill down.. applications utilities .. there lo and behold is Airport utility 5.6 .. drag it to your main utilities directory or just run it from current location.
You cannot uninstall version 6 (now 6.3 if you updated) so don't try.. and you cannot or should not run them both at the same time.. so just ignore the toyland version.. the plastic hammer.. and start using 5.6.. a real tool.
For screen shots see this post.
https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4668746?tstart=0
You only need to do this on the computer that is going to manage the files.. but it is easy once you have the actual 5.6 utility to just copy it to every computer in the network.
Sounds like interesting stuff.
The TC is not designed as a NAS.. so if this really doesn't work out, I would be looking at a 2 disk synology so you can run mirrored raid.
And of course backup is so much easier in a real NAS.. TC has no inbuilt backup ability, and TM cannot backup network drives.. so Apple kind of didn't intend TC to do this job.

WRT400N - frequent disconnects on Windows 7 Enterprise

I work from home for a software company, so I'm constantly online transferring data and talking to customers via Skype & a Cisco IP Phone. I've got my work laptop PC (running Win7 Enterprise) connected to the WRT400N using a LAN cable (wireless is for a MacBook Pro my wife uses). The WRT400N is updated to the latest firmware.
The problem I'm having is that I'm getting disconnected throughout the day, and nothing short of power cycling the wireless router is fixing the problem. I've tried disabling and re-enabling the LAN adapter, ipconfig /release and /renew, and rebooting the laptop. It seems that each time, I am forced to power cycle the router to restore connectivity.
I used to use the wireless adapter on the laptop, but due to frequent disconnects I moved the router to sit directly next to my laptop and just hooked up the LAN cable. I discovered that my Comcast modem was actually dropping connectivity so I had them swap it out for an updated model and since then I can see that it's staying connected (and yes, I'll admit I'm doing the n00b test of watching the LEDs to see if they're blinking off whenever I lose connectivity now). As I type this I have actually switched back to using the wireless adapter which hasn't disconnected in the past 6 hours (a record).
Long-winded so I apologize. I really would like to resolve this issue somehow but I'm not a network expert by any means and I've exhausted my limited ability to troubleshoot.

Try to follow the below mentioned settings and then check.
Open an Internet Explorer browser page on your wired computer(desktop).In the address bar type - 192.168.1.1 and press Enter. Leave Username blank & in Password use admin in lower case.
Click on the Wireless tab
Here select manual configuration...Wireless Network mode should be mixed.
Provide a unique name in the Wireless Network Name (SSID) box in order to differentiate your network from your neighbors network.
Set the Radio Band to Standard-20MHz and change the Standard channel to 11-2.462GHz...Wireless SSID broadcast should be Enabled and then click on Save Settings...
Please make a note of Wireless Network Name (SSID) as this is the Network Identifier...
Click on the Sub tab under Wireless > Wireless Security...
Change the Wireless security mode to WPA2, For Encryption, select TKIP...For Passphrase input your desired WPA2 Key. For example , MySecretKey , This will serve as your network key whenever you connect to your wireless network. Do NOT give this key to anyone and remember the key.
NOTE : Passphrase should be equal to or more that 8 characters...
Click on Advanced Wireless Settings
Change the Beacon Interval to 75,Change the Fragmentation Threshold to 2304,Change the RTS Threshold to 2304 and Click on Save Settings.

My smart watch just works when it's connected to the charger

Hi, I bought my smart watch just 2 months ago, and left it in my car charging.. well, the next day when I saw that the battery was fully charged, disconnected the watch and puted it on the armband it doesn't turned on anymore, no vibrations, no display, nothing. But when I connect it to the cable, the displays turns on and shows that the battery is fully charged, and the watch also turns on and is able to connect to my Xperia Z, but only when it's connected.. When the charger looses contact with the watch everything is over.
Can anybody help me?

Sounds like the battery has malfunctioned and can no longer hold a charge - You could try to run a repair using this thread although the process may differ slightly http://talk.sonymobile.com/t5/Wireless-accessories/How-to-check-if-you-have-the-latest-firmware-on-y...
If your watch is only 2 months old then it should still have warranty so if the above fails then I'd seek redress through your warranty via the place of purchase.
