Skype disconnects my Wifi every time I use video.
Skype disconnects my Wifi every time I use video. About a minute or so after using video as opposed to just voice my Internet connection fails. Little red X telling my home network dosen't exist. I have to use the diagnose problems feature to get it back and sometimes that dosent even work. Shutting down my wifi card is a pretty extreme glitch. I have no other connection issues, have 30+mbps and run a pretty standard setup: Firefox windows 7 etc. Any help would be appreciated. thanks
Skype doesn't attack Internet connections. It doesn't do anything abnormal that your computer/network shouldn't be able to handle. If you Internet connection is failing the issue lies either in your router, your line, or locally on your computer due to lack of resources/power when using simultaneous devices in your computer (audio, video, wireless card all being USB based). If it's only related to the wireless card then it's going to be a USB resource (USB bandwidth/power) or driver issue. Distance is also a consideration if it can't sustain a connection so you can always try to move closer to your wireless router to see if it makes any difference.
You need to isolate the issue to one of the things I mentioned above. Try wired instead of wireless, try to bypass the router, or disable uPnP in Skype or your router as it may have issues with it. -
Ipod classic unregisters from mac every time i try to restore with itunes
i have a 7th generations 120 g ipod. every time i try to restore it, you hear an audible click as it unregisters itself from my computer. And it will keep appearing and disappearing in that manner until i physically remove it from my computer. even when i hit eject, it just re registers itself then a few seconds later it un registers itself again. i have tried everything i have read from this forum. i have erased it's contents, i have put in in disk mode, I have put it in recovery mood holding buttons for 12 seconds. nothing works. as soon as its almost done restoring it un registers itself and i am unable to restore it. and the computer keeps telling me its corrupt after i've erased it with disk utility. please help. i have also gone into the configuration and looked at the stats. i don't see anything thats says there is anything wrong with the hard drive.

Why my mac mini wifi disconnects from wifi using arris modem
i have the 2013 mini mac , and i have problems with my wifi, im using arris modem, the mini mac disconnect from wifi every 10 or 20 min ?
Back up all data before making any changes.
Step 1
Take all the applicable steps in this support article. If you're running OS X 10.8.4 or later, run Wireless Diagnostics and take the remedial steps suggested in the summary that appears, if any. The program also generates a large file of information about your system, which would be used by Apple Engineering in case of a support incident. Don't post the contents here.
Step 2
Run Software Update and install all available updates for OS X or your computer's firmware.
Step 3
If you're not using a wireless keyboard or trackpad, disable Bluetooth by selecting Turn Bluetooth Off from the menu with the Bluetooth icon. If you don't have that menu, open the Bluetooth preference pane in System Preferences and check the box marked Show Bluetooth in menu bar. Test. Continue if you find that Wi-Fi is faster with Bluetooth disabled.
From that same menu, select Open Bluetooth Preferences. If the box labeled Discoverable is checked, uncheck it. Click the Advanced button, and in the sheet that opens, uncheck the top three boxes, if any are checked. Click OK. Enable Bluetooth and test again.
If the application called "Bluetooth Setup Assistant" is running, quit it. Note: this is not applicable to OS X 10.9 or later.
Step 4
This step will erase some of your settings in the Network preference pane. Make a note of them before you begin, and recreate them afterwards. It may be helpful to take screenshots of the preference pane.
Triple-click the line below on this page to select it:
/Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/com.apple.airport.preferences.plist
Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
Services ▹ Reveal
from the contextual menu.* A folder should open with "com.apple.airport.preferences.plist" selected. Move the selected item to the Trash. You may be prompted for your administrator password. Recreate your settings for Wi-Fi in the Network preference pane.
*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination 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 5
Reset the System Management Controller.
Step 6
Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store, or go to another authorized service center. -

Since upgrading to ios6, all the family's apple devices (new ipad, 2 iphone4 & itouch) are having difficulty reconnecting to the home hub wifi network. I.e, every time the lock screen comes on, the wifi connection is lost when you reopen the device and we have to reconnect through settings. This appears to be an ios6 software issue.
Is there a solution to this wifi connection issue or do we wait for a software fix?
I'd hate to think Apple is going down the Microsoft path, of passing untested software onto the user. What ever happened to Regression Testing, to ensure the existing functionality remains intact?
I bought into the Apple dream, because it was intuitive, reliable & enjoyable to use, all the things that Microsoft windows isn't.
Other issues we are experiencing are, Games are stuttering and the kids really miss the old YouTube app.

Additional things to try.
Try this first. 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.
Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
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
Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.

YouTube is not now part of iOS 6.
However, you can go to the App Store and do a search using YouTube. You can download several YouTube apps: YouTube (for the iPhone, a IPad app is in work), several users like Jasmine and YouPlayer.

PAD DISCONNECTS FROM WIFI AFTER A SHORT TIME HARD RESTART IS REQUIRED TO CONNECT AGAIN
MY IPAD NEEDS TO BE HARD RESTARTED EVERYTIME BEFORE I CAN ACCESS MY WI FI ANY IDEAS?

Since I updated to iOS 5.1 my iPad (1st gen) disconnects from WiFi network after 30 minutes. I did a full system restore with iOS 5.1 and the problem persists.
How to replicate:
Disable auto-lock
Connect to wifi network
Open an app that continuously does network activityYou might for example run a shoutcast webradio streaming app and start listening to some music
Leave the iPad running and turned on
After approx 30 minutes wifi drops and your music app stops the stream
This happens to me every time, after approximately 30 minutes, with either the iPad on USB charge or disconnected from charge.
Used to run apps connected to wifi regularly for hours and never had this problem before the upgrade to 5.1
I already tried to:
Restore network settings
Completely wipe and restore iPad to 5.1
Reboot wifi router
My router is a Netgear 834 G
try updating your router firmware http://support.netgear.com/app/products/family/a_id/1288 -
My new Mac Air continues to disconnect from WiFi after going to sleep. When waking it up I have to manually re-connect. How do I keep it connected?
I had this problem too and solved it by doing a clean install. After that it was gone.
This is a drastic method since it takes quite some time to reinstall lion and all your software.
Thoughts I had why it started working after a clean install are the following:
It looked like the airport wasn't able to reconnect fast enough before the connection timed out. So what could have prevented my mac from being able to connect fast enough?
Apps that consume processor cycles. I love what I would call 'System Enhancers', little apps that enhance my workflow (Moom, Alfred, Dropbox, Default Folder etc). I'm not saying that these are the problem, they might be programmed processor friendly, but check if you have apps that consume processor cylcles. It might prevent airport from being able to reconnect quickly enough before it times out.
Mobile Config profiles. Another thought I had was that I had a mobile config 802.1X profile installed for the company were I worked. It used TTLS to connect to the corporate network. This profile might have gotten in the way.
And a sidenote...
Routers with hardware acceleration might also be a problem. My router is a Wireless Gigabit Router 300N WL-351 and has hardware acceleration. As soon as I activate that my wifi connection keeps dropping. It is as if a Macbook Air can't handle that amount of optimisation.
That's it, hope it helps those who are still having the problem.

Disconnect from WiFi Button in Yosemite (Faster File Transfers via Airdrop)
Hi all! Just thought I'd share a great new pro-tip I found that's pretty handy.
Sometimes file transfers through a complex or busy network with a (think hotel lobby or coffee shop), Airdrop file transfers can run extremely slow vs. it going from computer to computer via no network (Ad Hoc). I was determined to find a work around for disconnecting from a WiFi network without turning off Wifi.
Anyways, Yosemite introduced a much asked for feature - The disconnect from WiFi button! Just hold down option while you select the WiFi indicator on the menu bar and click disconnect! Your WiFi will continue to be on and it simply won't connect to that network again. If you now search for other computers in AirDrop, it will find them and be a much faster computer to computer connection.Testing in a new User will quickly tell you if the problem is system wide or if it's your User's folder that contains the problem.
CREATE A NEW USER
Go to System Preferences --> Create a New User in Users & Groups Switch to the New User by logging out/in or use Fast User Switching.
Enter your Apple ID and password.
Test Markup in Mail using the iCloud account.
Continue testing to see what works in the new User.
Do you still see the issue?
If yes, then the problem is with your base files.
If no, then the problem is in your User's folder.
Finder - my iMac name is - iMacs iMac. All of a sudden it become iMacs iMac (2) and latter iMacs iMac (6). What are these numbers ?
In System Preferences > Sharing you can see name. When Finder adds a number it indicates it's seeing another drive with the same name. You can select to rename but this could also be an indication of issues at the base level.
Do you have an external drive that could be used to clone your drive in case you need to do a clean install? -
