I'm not interested in ascribing blame either but waiting for Apple to fix something that isn't broken will only divert attention from seeking the problem's underlying cause. Assuming the AirPort Utility app on your Mac remains unaltered, it's exactly the same one everyone else is using. Should there be any doubt about that, reinstalling OS X will obviate any concern.
I suggest the following for you to consider as you deem appropriate.
Apple's Wireless Diagnostics may supply some additional helpful information.
To use it, hold an option key while you click your Mac's Wi-Fi icon, and choose Open Wireless Diagnostics...
The following authentication dialog will appear:
Authenticate with your Admin password, then click the Continue button in the following:
The network analysis and diagnostic tests will take several minutes to complete:
When it completes, if your wireless network is functioning properly the following will result:
If something is amiss, supposedly the results will be different and you will be presented with helpful information.
Assuming your connection is "working as expected" select Continue to summary and click Continue:
Ignore the pre-populated text field, which is provided as a place for you to type in additional information should Apple ask for it in the course of obtaining technical assistance from them. Apple has no way of knowing where your router is located in your home, and certainly doesn't know if you even have an upstairs bedroom closet.
Click Continue.
The next step will also take a few minutes:
When it finishes, you will be presented with a summary that may or may not be useful to you. Let me know if it is.
The WirelessDiagnostics-xxx.tar.gz file deposited on your Desktop can be dragged to the Trash, or you may wish expand it and examine its contents. It's up to you.

  • ICal will not display correct "event" times

    Have iMac (21.5-inch, Late 2012), OS X Yosemite (10.10 ) and iCal app suddenly will not display the correct Event times that I have designated in the little pop up box? Any ideas about what I can do to reset iCal or fix this annoying error in the app?
    Thanks!

    Hi,
    Have you tried turning it off in iCal's Preferences and then back on again?

  • HT1430 my iphone 4 has suddenly ceased to work with a full battery and switch will not display slider.  How can I reactivate it?

    My iphone 4 has suddenly ceased to operate with a full battery and switch will not display slider.  How can I reactivate it? Is the memory gone? Will T Mobile replace the memory or the phone if necessary?

    Hello,
    If you're in a country where there's an apple shop (unfortunately not mine), go check it and ask the employee about it: he's gonna check your Iphone on a "device"
    I've got an iphone 5 and it's working very well with me but I have to admit that its battery lasts (slower) than my Ipad 2.
    Still i can help with some tips that may improve your iohone's battery by an hour in addition (hopefully):
    - close all apps by multitasking....
    - do NOT keep the brightness to the max
    Believe me you're gonna regret changing your phone to a samsung
    Hope i've helped and sorry for my bad english (has english as 3rd language)

  • Third party apps will not display pictures upon OS upgrade

    Hi
    I recently upgraded my 8520 to OS 5 and I've noticed that my Time Mobile App and Viigo will not display pictures in the articles or news feeds anymore. I've tried the apps support but no luck.
    Is there a possible solution for this?

    I don't know about Time Mobile, but I noticed that Viigo started having some issues with displaying photos correctly a while back after an OS update as well.  One suggestion you can try is to simply do a battery pull - while the phone is on, remove the battery for 15-30 seconds and reinsert.  After the phone has rebooted, see if you have any better luck.
    Now then, Viigo is still intermittent for me - some feeds load pictures no problem, while others have a lot of issues (or simply don't load pictures period).  My guess is that there is something that changed slightly in the OS update that is influencing how pictures are downloaded from the internet and to these apps.  Unfortunately there is little that can be done though unless the developer(s) update their apps as well.

  • Photos show up as thumbnail but when I click on them they will not display

    Photos show up as thumnails but when I click on them they will not display. I get a exclamation mark in a dotted line box

    Hylan:
    That occurs when the library has lost the link to the original file. This is a result of a damaged library database file, Library6.iPhoto. You can try rebuilding the library from within iPhoto to see if you can recover the photos by launching iPhoto with the Command+Option keys depressed and follow the instructions to rebuild the library. Select the first three options. However, it's iffy.
    You can rebuild the library with iPhoto Library Manager as it create a new library, leaving the original one intact, by reading the AlbumData.xml file and copying what it needs. You will be able to recover the photos, albums, keywords, titles and comments. However, books, slideshows, and calendars will not be recovered. Here's how:
    Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
    1 -Download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
    2 -Click on the Add Library button, navigate to your User/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
    3 - Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File->Rebuild Library menu option
    4 - In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
    5 - Click on the Create button.
    Note: It may take some time to create the new library if you have a lot of photos. Report back on how long it took and how many photos you have in the library so we can give other users an idea of how long it may take.
    It that doesn't work you'll have to start over with a new library and import the Originals folder from the old library as follows:
    Creating a new library while preserving the Events from the original library.
    Move the existing library folder to the desktop.
    Open the library package like this.
    Launch iPhoto and, when asked, select the option to create a new library.
    Drag the Originals folder from the iPhoto Library on the desktop into the open iPhoto window.
    This will create a new library with the same Events as the original library if you have the Finder checkbox unchecked in the Events preference pane.
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
    I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

  • Firefox will not display certain features of websites in windows 8.1

    I've upgraded to windows 8.1. Installed Firefox (now ver. 26) right away. I go to the same websites to pay bills, do work stuff etc for the past few years.
    Those websites work fine most of the time. RANDOMLY (at least to me) 2 websites have been giving me trouble for certain features:
    1. Banking website will not display my online bill pay. It does not crash, it just says "unable to display page" and for me to check my firewall etc, reload page, etc. When I go to other features for my bank, it works fine except for the bill pay.
    2. My work website has a feature to display paychecks etc. It give me the same message of "unable to display".
    Here's the weird thing: I open and close firefox a few times and the page "magically" works.
    I load the same page in IE 11 and I have the same problem.
    I load the same page in chrome 32.0.1700.107m and I never have this problem.
    I load the same pages in firefox ver. 26 on a windows 7 machine and it work just fine.
    I'm at a loss since Firefox is my primary browser and only have the other browsers for the occasional incompatibilities.
    Any ideas? I've concluded that it's a windows 8.1 issue/compatibility but would like to try other solutions before I downgrade back to windows 7.
    FYI: I've turned off windows firewall and the same issue still occurs. I've updated to the latest adobe flash, shockwave, and Java. I only have one extension installed - adblocker (which is disabled for these websites).
    Thanks in advance for any help.

    Current Firefox versions have enabled a built-in PDF Viewer that doesn't have all features that other PDF readers like the Adobe Reader have or may not function properly otherwise.
    You can change the action for Portable Document Format (PDF) from Preview in Firefox to use another application like the Adobe Reader or set to Always Ask in "Firefox > Options/Preferences > Applications".
    You can set the pdfjs.disabled pref to true on the <b>about:config</b> page to disable the build-in PDF viewer.
    You can check the value of the plugin.disable_full_page_plugin_for_types pref on the about:config page and remove the application/pdf part if present or reset the pref to the default via the right-click context menu if you want to display PDF documents in Firefox with another application (i.e. not the built-in PDF Viewer).

  • IChat will not display status messages.

    I'm having a problem - iChat will not display any "available" status messages. All away messages display properly, but any unique status messages will not display, nor does the word "available". I have restarted both iChat and my MacBook several times, deleted the com.ichat.AIM preferences file, but it seems nothing I do will make my buddy's unique status messages display.
    I did not previously use Chax but downloaded it to see if it would help; it didn't. I'm willing to delete it if it will solve my problem.
    Any help?
    Thanks!
    Message was edited by: Paperclippe

    Ok,
    As you either suspected or found out the Saved Status Messages are in com.apple.ihat.plist
    The fact they didn't display would suggest that they may have become corrupted and the deletion of the .plist would have helped.
    BUT you went on to mention that the Available Choice also does not display.
    This would suggest one of two things.
    1) Either you are not fully Logged in to the AIM servers properly
    Do your Buddies see you are On-line and Available ?
    Do they perceive your Status change ?
    Can you Text chat to people ?
    Can you send files or Pic in Text chats ?
    Try Deleting com.apple.ichat.AIM.plist and restarting iChat to see if that helps
    2) Something about iChat or it's support folders (the bits that make the Available show up), that are at fault.
    In this case try deleting com.apple.ichatAgent.plist
    This controls which accounts login and help the app to run some of the features such as the Video/Audio part and Text Messaging.
    I would do these one at a time just so you know which it was that fixed it.

  • Altavista will not display search results

    altavista us will not display search results. altavista canada works fine. On us site results will display in no style page but not in basic page style. The page comes up blank. This may have been caused by delta search. I think I have rid my computer of delta? Reloaded firefox. I use norton 360 and have run registry clean up and virus scans. Also cleaned explorer. In explorer the u.s. altavista works ok that is why I think it something to do with firefox and delta search showed up at the same time unwanted and forced a change on my home page. Have cleared computer of what delta files I could find my have something in the registry but I would not know what to look for or to do with. I am running xp

    In a round about way you solved my problem cor-el ! At the end of standard diagnostic there was mention of malware so I ran malwarebytes before running profile manager. malwarebytes found 21 items some in the registry. deleted these items and tried altavista us again and to my surprise it is working ok now.I thought norton 360 would catch such things but I guess it doesn't ! will keep and run a malware program from now on. thank you for your help.

  • Firefox will not display characters that were added by the webmaster on user PC?

    I employed a company to design a site for me which is great. Then I asked them to add a small button/image in the back end (admin area) that when clicked on will send an email. No image will display so I got them to change it to Text format, still it is not showing on my end. The design company are able to send me emails showing where it is but I cannot see it. It is worthwhile mentioning that it will not display in either IE8 or Opera, Is it a firewall problem ? Or a setting on Windows 7?

    If you wish, you may be able to salvage the malfunctioning extension by uninstalling and reinstalling it. Its settings will revert to their defaults. If the extension still causes a problem, remove it permanently or refer to its developer for support.
