Troubleshoot TC connectivity issues

My Time Capsule has worked great for over two years. All of the sudden, my MacBook Pro started having connectivity issues. Eventually (over about two weeks), the issues became a total lack of wi-fi internet in our household. I disconnected and powered off the modem and the TC. I even called my ISP (Comcast). We reset everything and everything else works fine (phone, TV and Internet plugged directly into modem). I cannot plug my MacBookPro into the modem since I have no ehthernet port. The light on the TC blinks amber.
Our local computers can access the files stored on the TimeCapsule, but airport utility gave the errors below (see pictures) before the comcast assisted reset. Now the Internet icon shows green in airport utility, but the error on the top icon says "no internet access" (Or something like that, I am submiting this from memory since I am using the wi-fi at work- and I have NO IDEA why they pics are upside down, they are on my computer right side up).
Please tell me there is an easy fix, or at least one that can be accomplished via a computer that cannot cannect to the internet at the same time as the time capsule.

Your pictures sadly did not load correctly.. I see nothing but a blank square with the file name. You appear to have spaces in the names.. never a good idea. They are photo 1.jpg and photo 2.jpg
Try again if you want.
A Gen3 TC is now past 3years.. well past if you bought it early in the life of the Gen3. Oct 2009.
The economic life of most computer equipment is now 3years.
You should at least try a factory reset of the TC.
Before doing this I would also downgrade the TC firmware to 7.6.1 or even 7.5.2. You do this by holding the option key when clicking version.
And redo the setup. No files on the hard disk are lost doing this.
If the computers are using Mavericks.. I do strongly suggest you set names correctly.
Make all names in the TC short, Less than 10 characters is excellent.. no more than 20.
No spaces.
Pure alphanumeric.. no apostrophe. It is not legal even in Apple network as it is replaced.
Mavericks changed to using SMB networking by default and it leads to all kinds of issues.
But if you have network connection to the TC by wireless but not ethernet from WAN port to the main comcast modem.. the internals of the TC are simply failing.
It is old and tired. Repair is not part of apple's world view.
I have repaired them. And posted instructions but it is well beyond a tinkerer .. this needs fairly committed DIY repair.

Troubleshooting DPS Connection issues - Sign in failed. Please try again.

All of our users are having trouble connecting to the Digital Publishing Suite through the Folio Builder in InDesign. Whenever we try to log in we get a "Sign in failed. Please try again." error. I'm almost positive it's something in our network that's causing the problem, but I'd like to see if I can narrow it down so I can direct our security dude in making an exception. I think DPS only uses port 443 for communication so I'll make sure that's open, but is there any other potential areas where I can do some investigation?

Are you guys able to login to the DPS dahsboard? (https://digitalpublishing.acrobat.com/welcome.html)
when a an ID is first set up, it requires that you login to the dashboard and accept the terms and policies to active the Adobe ID.
If yes but not on the panel, then your network firewall can be blocking access to DPS sites. I can provide you more documentation if the answer is yes.

USB Connection Issues

Have the 8330 Curve and the Blackberry Desktop application. It has allowed me to install apps such as opera mini, a stock portfilio app, and can import my calendar items. I now see 'connecting' in the lower right corner. Do not see anything on the desktop app that I see as abberant. What would I need to check on the device to troubleshoot?

Hi PhilPense,

Troubleshooting for RPC over https (Outlook Anywhere) connection issue

RPC over https (ROH), well known as Outlook Anywhere, is more frequently used. Even in Exchange 2013, Outlook no longer connects CAS server via MAPI.
In this thread, we will discuss about the troubleshoot checklist about the RPC over https (Outlook Anywhere) connection issue. In order to make it more logical, I’d like to divide the whole troubleshooting to the following processes:
1. Client side to CAS side
2. CAS side to MBX side
[Issues between Client side to CAS side]
In Exchange 2013, Outlook Anywhere is enabled by default. Different from this, Outlook Anywhere in Exchange 2007 and 2010 need to be manually enabled. Thus, please firstly check if the RPC over HTTP component has been installed:
Click Start, and then click Control Panel.
Double-click Programs and Features.
In the left pane of Server Manager, click Features.
In the right pane, click Add Features.
Check if the RPC over HTTP component has been selected.
If the ROH connectivity issue only happens on certain users, the property MAPIBlockOutlookRpcHTTP can be checked:
Get-CASMailbox name | fl MAPIBlockOutlookRpcHttp
2. Confirm if Exchange server is blocked. Ping the Exchange server FQDN on client machine and confirm if it can return the proper IP address.
3. Check if the RPC Proxy server is responding correctly:
rpcping -t ncacn_http -s ExchServer -o RpcProxy=RPCProxyServer -P "user,domain,*" -I "user,domain,*" -H 2 -u 10 -a connect -F 3 -v 3 -E -R none
If 200 code returns, the test is successful.
4. Check if Outlook Anywhere host names are added in the certificate:
To get host names, the following command can be used: get-outlookanywhere |fl *hostname
5. To use the Shell to test Outlook Anywhere connectivity, use the
Test-OutlookConnectivity cmdlet.
[Issues between CAS side to Mailbox side][RZ1]
A. Check if it can connect to store’s port:
RpcPing –t ncacn_http –s ExchangeMBXServer -o RpcProxy=RpcProxyServer -P "user,domain,password" -I "user,domain,password" -H 1 –F 3 –a connect –u 10 –v 3 –e 6001
If it returns as following: Completed 1 calls in 60 ms 16 T/S or 60.000 ms/T, it means the RPC Ping Utility test succeeds.
B. Check if it can Connect to DsProxy Service:
RpcPing –t ncacn_http –s ExchangeMBXServer -o RpcProxy=RpcProxyServer -P "user,domain,password" -I "user,domain,password" -H 2 –F 2 –a connect –u 10 –v 3 –e 6004
If it returns as following: Completed 1 calls in 60 ms 16 T/S or 60.000 ms/T, it means the RPC Ping Utility test succeeds.
C. Check the following registries:
[Disable the auto update]
1).Open Regedit and navigate to:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\MSExchangeServiceHost\RpcHttpConfigurator\RpcHttpConfigurator
2).Set the PeriodicPollingMinutes value to 0.
[Check the RpcProxy ValidPorts]
1).On the RPC proxy server, start Registry Editor (Regedit).
2). In the console tree, locate the following registry key:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Rpc\RpcProxy
3). In the details pane, right-click the ValidPorts subkey, and then click Modify.
4). In Edit String, in the Value data box, type the following information:
ExchangeServer :6001-6002; ExchangeServerFQDN :6001-6002; ExchangeServer :6004; ExchangeServerFQDN :6004
Note:
ExchangeServer is the NetBIOS name of your Exchange server. ExchangeServerFQDN is the fully qualified domain name (FQDN) of your Exchange server. If the FQDN that is used to access the server from the Internet differs from the internal FQDN, you must use
the internal FQDN.
[Check the 6004 port settings in registry]
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\MSExchangeSA\Parameters
Value name: HTTP Port
Value type: REG_DWORD
Value data: 0x1772 (Decimal 6002)
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Services\MSExchangeSA\Parameters
Value name: Rpc/HTTP NSPI Port
Value type: REG_DWORD
Value data: 0x1774 (Decimal 6004)
D. Check if the RPC ports are used by other applications instead of Exchange by using : netstat –o
Then it will return all active TCP connections and the process ID (PID) for each connection.
After that, please check the application based on the PID on the Processes tab in Windows Task Manager and confirm if it’s Exchange server.
Additionally, ExRCA is a perfect tool to test the whole connection between client side and Mailbox side:
https://testconnectivity.microsoft.com/
1. On the ExRCA website, under Microsoft Office Outlook Connectivity Tests, select Outlook connectivity, and then select Next at the bottom of the page.
2. Enter the required information on the next screen, including email address, domain and user name, and password.
3. Choose whether to use Autodiscover to detect server settings or to manually specify server settings.
4. Accept the disclaimer, enter the verification code, and then select Verify.
5. Select Perform Test.

I've just restored the M11 to Windows XP with the disks provided and Outlook Anywhere connected without issue. As strange as it sounds, this looks to be isolated to this particular model of laptop and Windows 7.
I've used the same Enterprise copy of Windows 7 and Office on a variety of laptops and pc's and none have come across this problem. The only commonality I can see is the hardware and OS.
Aftery trying to troubleshoot this unsuccessfully with Microsoft tech support for a few hours, they eluded to the fact that this +could+ be a hardware related problem. (driver, adapter properties, etc)

Troubleshoot connectivity issues Outlook Anywhere - Exchange 2013

Hi there,
As part of our Exchange 2010 -> 2013 migration we've transitioned CAS to Exchange 2013 2 weeks ago. Some 50 mailboxes have been moved to exchange 2013. Moving mailboxes for everyone is scheduled the 2nd week of july . Because our current version of Outlook
is 2007 (migration to 2013 is due thissummer) we've configured NTLM authentication for OA.
Exchange setup: 8 Multirole (CAS/MBX) virtual (VMware) Servers: each 4 cores, 24 Gb memory (reserved) : Windows 2012 SP1, Exchange 2013 SP1 (15.0.847.4030)
Right now we're facing client connectivity issue's: Outlook Anywhere clients are continiously losing connection with exchange, some people (outllook 2007/exc. 2007) report every minute or worse.... Moving the mailboxes of affected people results in
less problems: Sometimes no disconnects for 10 to 30 minutes, then reconnects every minute for some time.
We've already set the timeout for the oa-pool in our network proxy (riverbed steelapp) to 20 minutes and the minimum keep alive on the 2013 servers to 120 seconds which improved Oultook 2013 clients; before I experienced reconnects every minute, after every
10 to 30 minutes (with periods of reconnects every minute)
testconnectivity.microsoft.com gives positive results (apart from a nspi warning about server side encryption)
testing with rpcping according to
http://blogs.technet.com/b/exchange/archive/2008/06/20/3405633.aspx gives some interesting results:
I've tested all (8) CAS 2013 servers over ports 6001, 6002 and 6003; each 100 rpcpings with a for loop: every response was either about 500 ms or about 21 Seconds ?!?
How can we furher troubleshoot the reason of the long reply time. Eventlogs (and SCOM with exchange 2013 MP) show no relevant events or alerts.

I've repeated above test this afternoon: All test resulted in about 40-60 (of 100) replies >20 seconds

We've changed a timeout setting in the Steelapp virtual server (old: 10 sec; new: disabled) the connections between Outlook and Exchange are, when established, very stable (almost no failed request anymore)
However there still existst a conectivity issue:
The 8 Exchange 2013 servers are placed in 2 different Active Directory sites (4 servers in each site) and I have found that a cross site rpcping consequently takes more than 20 seconds (with the loadbalancer bypassed ! !) where a rpcping on the
same AD-site takes 200-300 miliseconds...
rpcping -t ncacn_http -o RpcProxy=Host-in-site-A -P "user,domain,password" -H 2 -F 3 -a connect -u 10 -v 3 -s RpcProxy=Host-in-site-B -I "user,domain,password" -e 6001 => 20+ seconds
rpcping -t ncacn_http -o RpcProxy=Host-in-site-A -P "user,domain,password" -H 2 -F 3 -a connect -u 10 -v 3 -s RpcProxy=Host-in-site-A -I "user,domain,password" -e 6001 => 200 miliseconds
rpcping -t ncacn_http -o RpcProxy=Host-in-site-B -P "user,domain,password" -H 2 -F 3 -a connect -u 10 -v 3 -s RpcProxy=Host-in-site-B -I "user,domain,password" -e 6001 => 200 miliseconds
rpcping -t ncacn_http -o RpcProxy=Host-in-site-B -P "user,domain,password" -H 2 -F 3 -a connect -u 10 -v 3 -s RpcProxy=Host-in-site-A -I "user,domain,password" -e 6001 => 20+ seconds
The same tests with our Exchange 2010 CAS and MBX (NO multirole) shows fast (300 ms.) with every combination. The servers are both on the same networks in each site
We've already started talking with the network guy's: There should be no rules between both networks.
OWA, Autodiscover, EAS all work fine.
How or where to troubleshoot this slow response between two AD site's ??

Connection doctor and connection issues

I have nothing blocking my internet connection, however mail is a nightmare for me. I continually receive connection issues via the connection doctor for imaps, pops, and icloud.
Are my settings wrong? I have checked with each of the settings and they are set per instructions provided. Some are google, some yahoo, icloud, etc.
This is really annoying and I could really use some help.
Here is a typical message: Could not connect to this Google IMAP server. Check your network connection and that you entered the correct information in the Account preferences. Also verify that the server supports SSL. If it does not, deselect the 'Use SSL" checkbox in the Advanced tab of Account Preference"
I have done all of this and am still having troubles.
I am also receiving SMTP connection issues - "Trying to log into this SMTP account failed. Verufy that the username and password are correct."
I have checked and all are correct. Even more confusing, these issues are not present all the time - however I have not changed anything between when times are good and bad.
Sigh - I hope someone has an idea to help me out.
Thanks in advance for your time and thoughts.

IPhone 4 voice/data connection issues?

I've had my iPhone 4 for around 6 months now. Lately I've been dropping a lot of out-going calls and have had some issues receiving calls in the last few days. Today I've had 3 voice mail notifications from people who have tried to call me and could not get through. It rings through to voicemail and sends me a notification after they're done recording. I have anywhere from 2 to 4 service bars, usually averaging at 3 in this location.
On top of the voice and call issues, I've been having problems with GPS and location services lately, too. I use the Waze app for directions. My phone will register 3G data signal, but none of the apps that use GPS can find any location. I have Location Service turned on in settings and have no problem starting my routes when I have wifi signal at home before I leave.
Phone details:
iPhone 4 8GB

I have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 on my MacBook. Constantly dropping internet connection or message "error connecting to the network" comes up. No wireless connectivity issues with windows 7 laptop or iphone.

I have a MacBook with Snow Leopard 10.6.8. The last few weeks it has been constantly dropping internet connection, and one of these messages appear on the page: "Safari cannot open this page because the server where this page is located isn't responding" or "Safari cannot open this page because you are not connected to the internet" comes up. I will check Wifi and I am connected. No wifi connectivity issues with iphone or windows 7 laptop, this doesn't happen with either of those devices. I have unplugged and reset router, cleared cache, still happening. Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

Ipod connection issues with itunes

i know, i am the one-thousandth person to write in about a connection issue, but i just bought a 8gb nano. my pc is recognizing the ipod, but itunes does not automatically start.
instead, if i manually try to start up itunes, it either doesn't start at all, or when it does, it immediately locks up. or it will try as hard as it can to sync and then locks up.
once i disconnect the ipod from the usb port, itunes will come back to life. i have done EVERYTHING the support pages say, reinstalled itunes, dumped temp files, stopped conflicting software...everything short of sending in the new ipod to be serviced. please if you have run into this particular problem and/or you know how to fix this issue, please respond
i don't really want to send a brand-freaking-new ipod off to be serviced b/c i think this is a software issue.

Hello lalajamjam,
It sounds like you've done a rather good job of troubleshooting already. Other than testing to see if the issue is user-specific per ( http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1717 ) and possibly testing the Nano on another computer, there are few additional steps to try prior to getting it serviced.

Wi-Fi connection issues since securing network

Hi all,
Hoping to get some solutions as I have tried to troubleshoot this issue with other posts and google searches. Here is my scenario :
I'm running OS Lion 10.7.5 on my MBP and have been connected to our home wi-fi for about 12 months on a connection that wasn't secured by password.
Since having some download issues and fearing that someone is connecting outside our household, we have secured our wi-fi and added a password.
Both mine and my sister's iPhones got prompted to select a network, selected the appropriate one, punched in the password and were connected with no issues. My iPad Mini, Dad's laptop and both my parents' phones all connected with no issue.
When I booted my MBP, I was prompted with needing to join a new network and upon selecting our home network was met with an immediate 'Connection timeout' response.
I try to connect manually through Network in the System Preferences and got the same 'Connection Timeout'. When I click 'Assist me' and try to connect that way, I am finally prompted to input the password, which I do correctly and I get 'Invalid Password' etc etc response ... then after about 5 seconds it connects me !!
So even though the connection timed out and I wasn't able to put a password in, manually doing it told me the password was wrong etc then I get connection like normal. If I switch my laptop off/reboot/log out/turn wi-fi off then back on, I'm back to square one and can't connect unless I follow the same tedious steps.
Fearing it was an issue with our router, we have since bought a new one, installed it and reconnected all the devices as mentioned above, however my MBP connection issue still exists.
How can I get it to connect automatically like it used to and recognize our home network with a correct password, without continually having to go through all those steps ?
I have tried to delete that entry in my preferred networks and tried to re-establish it etc. Keychain Access doesn't list my router and input password.
I'd like to be able to solve the issue asap if possible and hopefully without having to delete all of my other known networks that I connect to as I travel all over the country for work and have about 6-8 routers I connect to, depending on what city/office I'm in.
Any assistance would be appreciated !

Some users with various Wi-Fi connection problems have reported that they were given the following instructions by Apple Support, sometimes with success. I can't vouch for this procedure myself. After completing the procedure, you'll have to recreate all your settings in the Network preference pane. Make sure you know how to do that before you begin. Taking screenshots of the preference pane may be helpful.
Step 1
Back up all data.
Triple-click the line below on this page to select it:
/Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration
Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
Services ▹ Reveal
from the contextual menu.* A folder should open with an item named "SystemConfiguration" selected. Move the selected item to the Trash. You may be prompted for your administrator password.
*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C). In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar, paste into the box that opens (command-V). You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.
Step 2
Reset the System Management Controller

T420 internet connection issues

I'm probably over complicating this situation, since I know little about computers, but here it is.
My T420's hard drive became a victim of the "Click of death," and I had to buy a replacement. I installed Windows 7 and I now experience connection issues. I cannot connect Wirelessly or Ethernet cable. With troubleshooting I receive a "Windows did not detect a properly installed network adapter" message.
I'm assuming I have to install drivers, and I'm clueless there.

welcome to the community.
sorry you're having issues.
if you post your machine type (from sticker on bottom; don't post s/n), we can probably get you pointed in the right direction.
a question to clarify... how did you install windows and which version?
edited to add: follow-up... i believe the link below is for the wired nic in your machine. pick the 32 or 64 bit version as appropriate. once you can get on-line, you may be able to run thinkvantage system update (if it's installed) to get any other needed drivers.

Ipad 3 WiFi connectivity issues

All right.. this might be a two part problem. I was attempting to enable restrictions, and after I entered the passcode twice and tapped "Enable restrictions," it asked me to enter a new passcode again. Without doing much checking, I decided to resort to "Reset All Settings." After doing this, I'm unable to connect to any WiFi networks. I did this while at my in-laws house, and thought perhaps it was something flukey with their router.. however, after returning home, I ran into the same issue.
When I attempt to connect, I get "Incorrect password for "<my network>", and it says "Failed to join "<my network>" at the top of the password entry box. I have two sons with iPads, and I was able to disconnect and reconnect to the wireless network with no issue on theirs. I set up a secure guest network, and was able to log in with my sons' iPads, but not mine. Same issue.. I enter the password, and it comes back with "Incorrect password..."
When I set up an unsecure network, I'm able to join.and use as normal. There must be a settings issue that I'm overlooking somewhere, but I can't seem to find it or figure out how to find it while I search the wasteland of Google search results. Any help would be most appreciated.

Some things to try first:
1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
    •    Launch Settings app
    •    Tap on Wi-Fi
    •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
    •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.
