UAC Prompts from Network Whenever a Network Connects
Just today I started getting strange UAC prompts from the program "Network" (with CLSID {E5A040E9-1097-4D24-B89E-3C730036D615}) whenever a network connects (plugging in Ethernet cable, connecting to a wireless network)...etc. It occurs on two Windows 8 machines
(both domain-joined).
According to the only thing I found on the Internet (http://www.itproffs.se/index.php?/topic/39631-windows-8-irriterande-uac-fraga-naetverksprofil/,
non English content), it seems to be trigger by Set Network Location. Whether approving the UAC request or not seems have no difference. The UAC prompts pops-up next time a network connects.
Has anyone seen this behavior?
While I don't know why this is causing the issue, I was seeing it happen to me only while I had my domain user account connected to my Microsoft account via the Control Panel "Users" option. When I disconnected the accounts and restarted, this went
away. My supervisor has the exact same deployment of Win 8 as me, never connected his MS account to his domain account, and never saw the issue.
I'd recommend other users seeing this to check if their Microsoft account is connected to their domain account, and if so disconnecting to see if that resolves the issue.
Hi N Lee Shelton,
I think, everybody in this thread knows, that this issue only happens, when the Domain account and MS Live Account is paired ;-)
So, we need a fix for this problem. I can´t deploy Win8 Tablets in my company until this is fixed, but MS seems not interested at the Moment.
I certainly didn't until I realized it myself, and it's not referenced anywhere else in this thread. Not saying that it's not a problem, but as a temporary workaround it should at least be known.

Install guest OS Solaris 10 no network connection
Hi,
I tried to install Solaris 10 as guest OS on Oracle VM. During the installation of OS, it bypass the step prompt for network connectivity (yes/no) screen. (I tried many time install and re-install over and over again, but the network connectivity prompt screen never show up.)
I finished the installation anyway, the OS seem working fine. But the problem is I don't know where to enter the network info, and therefore, no network connection.
So, please help.
Thank you,
WeiWindows uses the primary partiton for boot, too, even if you installed it on the NTFS volume in the extended partition. Wherever you install Windows, it will need the primary partition for booting. You can never boot from Windows extended partitions
As for the 15Gb raw partition, it look like what you call 'RAW partition' is actually just a small little part inside the extended partition. All your NTFS partitions (and your RAW partiton) are logical volumes and they all reside inside the extended partition. Even though Windows sees them as separate drives, each with its own drive letter, just as it sees the primary partition.
You may try do use Windows fdisk or diskpart to delete the last logical volume in the extended partition, and then get the ntfs resize tool from Linux, or the CD1 from the Debian Linux install CDs, which has it included and accessible with a nice user interface, and resize your extended partition.
I don't know if it works, I only used it to also resize some logical volume inside the partition. ntfs resize tool might not be easy to work with, you will need to read its documentation, but it does resize NTFS partitions (I have seen it).
If it works, then you will have your 15Gb as unallocated space available for a new partition. Let the Solaris installer create this new partition automatically during install.

How do I stop my Mac from asking if I want to allow iTunes to accept incoming network connections?
Every time I open iTunes on my Mac, a drop down box asks me if I "want the application "iTunes.app" to accept incoming network connections?". I always click allow, but it's a pain to have to do this every time.
Does anyone know how I can permanently stop this box from appearing?
Thanks in advance.I have the same problem with Keynote.
It's already set to accept incoming connections but it still asks whenever it's launched--annoying.
Is there a fix? -
Repeated iTunes prompt to allow network connections
I've recently upgraded to iTunes 10. All is fine except every time I start iTunes I get a prompt to allow iTunes to accept incoming network connections.
iTunes is set to accept incoming connections in my System Preferences>Security>Firewall settings
Any ideas on solutions much appreciated
MarkTried this and it doesn't work. When iTunes starts it automatically adds itself to the firewall set to allow incoming connections. The first time it starts it does this because the firewall preferences file does not have an entry for it. The second time it starts, the entry is there and iTunes then prompts and keeps prompting. Deleting the entry from the firewall will stop it, but only for the next start.
You can see this happening y looking at the firewall preferences file in /Library/preferences. It's called com.apple.alf.plist. If you have this problem you will see an entry in it for iTunes with a block of hex data. When you remove iTunes from the firewall setting, this disappears. When you start iTune, it is re-added. The next start then checks this and prompts.
The only solution that seems to be accepted to be working by a number of discussions on various forums (and it worked for me), is to do the following:
1. Delete the iTunes application from your applications.
2. Stop the iTuneHelper application in Activity Monitor.
3. Clear iTune firewall entries.
4. Download iTunes from apple.com and install it.
Going back and monitoring the com.apple.alf.plist file ou will now see that when iTunes starts, it does not add any entries to this file. My understanding is that this whole issue is to do with self signing applications. It would appear that the firewall is now seeing iTunes as a self signing application and no longer needs to add an entry to it's preferences or prompt for access. -
Hello, I've started having an issue downloading songs and apps from iTunes to our PC which has Windows XP Professional installed. We also use Karspersky Anti-Virus and Firefox as an internet browser. Have never had this issue before, it comes up with "An unknow error has occured and downloads are stopped with an error 8003. Also says please check your network connection" We have no issue connecting to iTunes store or the network so not sure how to fix this. It is very frustrating. Have checked Windows Firewall and iTunes is an exception, can't think of anything else why it won't work.
I sounds as though you need to start again. The following article tells you how to completely remove iTunes and Quicktime. If you didn't actually install iTunes you wont find it in add/remove programs so you can't do that bit, but still delete the iTunes folder in Program Files as advised in the article.
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93698
Once you have got rid of them, try installing the latest version of iTunes. There is a link to it in the article.
Itunes wont move your music for you, get iTune sgoing then ask again. -
How do I stop InDesign from trying to create a network connection?
I have a huge problem, either with InDesign or Apple I am not sure.
Basically when I bring my computer home from work every time I open InDesing it tries to connect to a server and I get this error message: the server XXX.local may not exist or is unavailable at this time. Check the server name or IP address, check your network connection, and then try again.
Why is InDesign trying connect to a server? Photoshop and Illustrator work perfectly well and function as a normal program. Indesign has no reason to do this as it should need to work through a server.
I get this error message and once I have dismissed it, it comes back after a few seconds and then stalls my computer again.
I really hope that someone can give me some idea of what is happening because the support in my country have not been at all helpful. I am asking this same question on the Adobe forums.I get no messages from ID for InDesign or anything else and I am running CS5. I can't install Little Snitch because it is a work computer and my IT won't let me me do it. They have mentioned reinstalling it but our IT department haven't said anything more than that and frankly I don't think they would register as an issue that needs fixing as such.
The drive it is looking for is the timecapsule.local which I have turned off and on again and nothing has helped. -
How can i stop Firefox from asking "Choose A Network Connection" when i'm offline and using my saved pages
i use Firefox 22.0 on windows 7
it's about one week that it ask for "Network Connections" when i'm offline and disconnected from the internet even when i don't open a save page and just opening Firefox with a blank page
Image of the Error:

http://www.sums.ac.ir/~rowshansh/firefox.pngDid you check the network setting?
Sounds that you have set to connect automatically when a connection is not available.

Losing network connection and NIC acts weird from warm/hot weather/temperatures?
Hello.
Is there a known issue on MSI P43 NEO3-F (MSI-7514) motherboards' onboard RealTek RTL8168C (P)/8111C(P) PCI-E Gigabit Ethernet NIC network disconnecting and acting weird during warm/hot weather?
I noticed lately and back on 1/11/2009 night when weather got warm/hot (e.g., my room can get over 85F degrees, but lately it has been 80F degrees), my network would lose its connection. See http://img9.imageshack.us/img9/5580/screenshots.gif for a few SpeedFan's sensor readings when the incidents occurred. I have never seen this happen when the weather is cooler (60-70F degrees in my room).
I also think this only happens if I am using the PC lightly (nothing intensive) like watching fullscreen videos (video overlay), surfing the Web, etc. I don't see any errors or evidences that it happens when idled (e.g., asleep or out). Uptime doesn't seem to matter since I have seen days to 3.5 hours.
I tried upgrading network driver twice (e.g., Realtek_XP_5714_0219 from
http://www.realtek.com.tw/downloads/downloadsView.aspx?Langid=1&PNid=13&PFid=5&Level=5&Conn=4&DownTypeID=3&GetDown=false ...), disabling Kerio Personal Firewall v2.1.5 (XP's disabled already), releasing and renewing IP address (works, but still no network -- can't even ping my router!), unplugging and replugging the cat5 cable (do see the network port lights on), touching the network jack and hardware inside and outside of the case (not hot), trying another cat5 cable and a network port on a switch instead router's), changing from "Minimal Power Management" to full power (no underclocking/slowing down when idled), etc.
During the disconnections, I tried:

I also noticed the disconnections usually start with red X icon in my taskbar with its bubble and then later the long disconnection even though no red X (1 GB and connected). If I were to disconnect the cat5 cable from NIC, then it wouldn't even detect it is missing the cable!
The only way to fix this was to reboot (best way and last longer) OR disable network connection and re-enable it (Windows XP's Network Connections) or the NIC itself (Device Manager), but that doesn't always last long (maybe a minute). Example of my pings right after disabling and re-enabling NIC:

Force your NIC to run at 100Mbps full duplex and see how it goes.
Check your router / switch ports as well as cables.
I will try 100 Mbps if it happens again. So far, it hasn't occurred after installing the driver supplied by MSI's Web site and not RealTek's Web site. The room temperatures even got warmer like 83F degrees.
As for router and switch, what am I checking for? Other computers didn't have any problems. As for cat5 cables, I already tried another one like I said in my original post. -
I have been trying to update my iPhone4s' software from version 5.0.1 to version 5.1. I continue to get a message from iTunes that a network connection could not be established. I was buying apps for my phone on my computer so I know that my connection is good. I clicked on Help in iTunes and had it to run a network diagnostic and all was good. Are the servers just jammed up with so many people trying to update to the newest software version? Thank you in advance for your time!
Sincerely,
PrettyinPinkInklook around the forum tons of people repport that they can't update
makes you suspect that apples update servers can't meet the depand of too many users
trying to update at once -
everytime i try to download an app from itunes, or to 'view all' the apps listed, the error says; 'We could not complete your iTunes Store reuest. The network connection was reset' I used both my desktop and laptop both on Windows 7 Pro, & net is fine. please help. is there soemthing wrong with apple store temporarily?
The latest message is: 'We could not complete your iTunes Store request. The network connection was reset.'
In between, I got a messge about verifying my payment method. When I tried to submit the details, I kept getting a mmessage stating that my payment method was declined (my card is not near it's expiration date, and works fine).
Argh! -
Network connection IS active. Network connectivity test confirms, but shows Secure link to ITunes store failed. Tried help from diagnostics but get message that help is unavailable because computer isn't connected to internet (but it is). Diagnostic details show current user is not administrator (but is). Details show basic connection to the store failed. Tried all the "helps"/solutions I could find-- ie flush dns, No LSP except Bonjour, firewalls, etc. and still can't connect. What can I do????
Must have Admin password for the OS system to know you are Admin -
that error is known for eventually having to either
1 Unintall reinstall itune or
2 Reinstall Windows -
Losing network connection when loading new firmware from iTunes (or syncing
Noticed this when loading 1.1.1 weeks ago and now 1.1.2. Several times during the download/installation process, I lost my network connection. Rebooting the PC restored it, only to have it go down again, requiring another reboot. Required several PC (not iPhone) reboots to be able to complete the process. This happens only during this process -- I otherwise never lose my network connection and always enjoy super speed. Paid it no mind and dismissed as a fluke during 1.1.1 upload, but was surprised to see it again this time. In both cases the final download and install worked perfectly. It's just a time-consuming hassle -- kinda weird -- thx much in advance for any clues about this...
It appears the problem appears only when using torrent software.
There is a lot of discussion on different torrent software forums about this, and directions on how to get around this issue. However with my skills I only managed to get Vuze to work properly while killing the network access from all other application. So i just went back to default settings.
I give up for now, I'll wait until Apple releases OS X update that works together with these programs (like it did in tiger and earlier versions..) or if it's even possible, one of the programs finds a way to get around this issue. -
My daughter has just bought me an iPad 2 from Dubai and set it all up for me but unfortunately the iMessage function doesn't seem to work. We keep getting messages,when trying to activate it, that there is a network connection problem - help!
Thank you both for your responses but my daughter was reassured by the salesman in the iStyle store (official Apple store in the UAE) that iMessages would work but conceded that FaceTime wouldn't. My iTunes account is registered in the uk and my daughter's iPhone has iMessages even though she bought it (and uses it) in Dubai. Can anyone else throw any light on this?

Can't save to external hard drive connected to Airport Ex from networked pc
Hi,
I have always been able to access the files on my external harddrive that's connected to my Airport Extreme from my wirelessly networked laptop pc and make changes, deletions, save files, etc.
Sometime in the past couple of weeks, it changed. I still can get to my files on the ext drive and open them, but I cannot save a file that I edited. For example, if I'm on my pc laptop and I'm in Photoshop, I can still get to the files on the external drive that's connected to my Airport Extreme, but once I make my changes to the graphic and hit save, I cannot save the file to the external drive. As a matter of fact, I've now discovered that I can open files, but not save them, change the file name, etc. on the external drive. I have always been able to. My connections, hardware, etc have not changed.
When I connect to the external drive from my laptop pc, I connect with my mac user name and password. I am an administrator. Thoughts?Hello,
Try running Disk Utility and Repairing Disk Permissions...
Launch Disk Utility. (Applications/Utilities) Select MacintoshHD in the panel on the left, select FirstAid, then click: Repair Disk Permissions. Quit DU when it's finished and reboot.

When trying to connect from iTunes to Airplay speakers I get error message “The network connection timed out” although some sort of connection is made as the speaker is turned on. Same thing with Apple TV. Is the distance between my PC and the speaker or the AppleTV the problem?

This means I can't see what my diary entries refer to. Can I change it to show two lines or the full entry, as iCal did in Snow Leopard?

Quick question: apply keyword to multiple photos?
I select multiple photos in the browser. I call up the keywords HUD. I find the keyword I want; I drag it onto the multiple images; it applies to ONE IMAGE ONLY. I ended up having to apply it to one, then use the lift and stamp tool. Took forever. Wh
