Upgraded BIOS - now wakeup on lan (WOL) no longer working!!

Hi,
As I've been trying to get my machine working with 8GB of memory:
https://forum-en.msi.com/index.php?topic=134888.0
I upgraded the BIOS from 5.5 to 5.8.
Now, I'm finding that wakeup-on-lan (WOL) that USE to work, no longer works :(!!!
I checked the onboard NIC MAC address in Windows using ipconfig, and that hasn't changed, and I also checked the BIOS settings, and those all seem to be ok.
I also did a BIOS set defaults, but still WOL doesn't work.
Does anyone know what the problem might be?
Is WOL just broken in the K9NBPM2-FID 5.8 BIOS?
Can I re-flash the BIOS to 5.5?
Thanks,
Jim

Svet,
Thanks for the answer.
FYI, I don't quite understand, but I was just able to get this working.
The machine that I was running the WOL app from has VMware Workstation installed, and I disabled the two VMnet "adapters" under Device Manager. After that, I was able to do WOL ok.
The reason I said that I don't quite understand is that I'm pretty sure that VMware Workstation has been installed on this same machine for quite awhile, so I don't understand why I had to disable to VMware adapters to get the WOL to work this time.
In any event, I'm glad that I can get it working ...
Jim

After upgrade to FCPX 10.1, paste attributes no longer works. Has any one had a similar experience or have an answer?

After upgrade to FCPX 10.1, paste attributes no longer works. Has anyone had this issue or have an answer to it?

Are you sure it does not work at all? Could be a problem with a particular project, or clip.
Create a completely new project, add some clips to it, Cmd-C in one clip, and try Paste Atributes into another. Does it not work?
Also, by "does not work" do you mean it is greyed out, or the window appears but nothing happens when you click "Paste"?

Since upgrading to Mavericks, my Canon MP980 printer no longer works. I've tried deleting the printer and adding it again. the process ends with my mac saying the software is not currently available from the software update server.

Since upgrading to Mavericks, my Canon MP980 printer no longer works. I've tried deleting the printer and adding it again. I've downloaded the driver software from Canon. My Mac dropbox tells me "the selected printer software is available from Apple", but when I click to download it, the process ends with my mac saying the software is not currently available from the software update server.

Open Finder and click on Go > Go to Folder. Then type
/Library/Printers/Canon
and press Enter. This will show the BJPrinter and iJScanner folders. You could try moving or trashing this folder and then installing the driver that you downloaded from Canon again.

WRVS4400N v2 - upgraded firmware, now old and default passwords don't work

Hi,
I upgraded the firmware for my WRVS4400N v2 to version 2.0.2.1 firmware, now old and default passwords don't work. I have tried resetting it as well, and the default password does not work. Any suggestions?
Thanks

HT3748 since upgrading to Mountain Lion, my Mac Mail no longer works well w/exchange email; so, I have had to switch back to outlook. Now, how can I use outlook for mac's calendar and contacts with icloud?

Since uprgading to Mountain Lion, my mac mail no longer works with my exchange email properly. I finally gave up and moved back to outlook for mac, but now my new issue is using outlook calendar and contacts with icloud; possible?

Sorry but I'm really not to sure what I have. I'm not good with knowing my computer model. All I know is that its a MacBook running with Leopard. I got my computer last year so I suppose its fairly new. Is there a place on my computer where I can check to see what it is (sorry to be so dumb with my own mac)
And everything else works fine. I love Safari. It's just my mail that doesn't work. Here's the message that pop up several times.
"The MobileMe IMAP server “mail.mac.com” rejected the password for user “akcastaldo”
Please re-enter your password, or cancel."
The only problem here is, even though I enter my password it doesn't do anything. It makes that message go away for about 3-5 mins. After that it pops right back up. And I can't even go into my preference and change my email password. So I don't know what to do.

Just upgraded to CS 4 and duplex printing no longer works

I'm trying to print a 2-sided document to an HP Laserjet 9500 from InDesign, and the duplexing no longer works. The printer still duplexes from my other Mac running CS2, so I'm wondering if something happened when I installed the upgrade.

I cannot get the dueplexing feature to work on our HP P2055 with InDesign CS3 & CS4 for the MAC.
HP P2055 Printer Driver from Snow Leopard.
From InDesign CS3 or CS4 (MAC) I send a two page Landscape document to duplex print. Only 8.5" from the left edge on both sides print. It's like it is only printing through a portrait mask.
Now if I make the document Portrait, then it prints fine.
The booklet printing is ever worse.
If I print with PCL instead of Postscript (Generic or the HP Postscript) the dueplexing works, but it prints the oppisite side flipped.
From a Windows Vista machine running CS2 everything works great.
On the MAC I can create a PDF from InDesign, open the PDF and duplex print the the same file fine.
On the MAC MS Word duplexes fine.
Anyone have insight on this InDesign/Printer issue?

I have a brand new iPod Touch. I recorded three voice memos, then synced with my computer. Now the voice memo feature no longer works on my iPod.

My iPod touch is no longer recording voice memos. It worked for a while, then I synced it with my computer. Now it no longer works. I bought this for the main purpose of recording, and it no longer does this. It responds like it is recording, i.e. the needle moves in response to sound, but nothing is saved, and when I try to see the list of memos on the iPod by touching the correct button, absolutely nothing happens.

Just upgraded to Mavericks and my HP6100 printer no longer works, when I try to reload the software it says PowerPC apps no longer supported. Is there a way to use my HP6100 Printer with Mavericks?

Just upgraded my 2009 iMac (3.06 Ghz, core 2 duo $GB 1067 Mhz DDR3) to Mavericks OSX 10.9.5 and my HP6100 printer no longer works, when I try to reload the software it says PowerPC apps no longer supported. Printer says the software was improperly installed. Is there a way to use my HP6100 Printer with Mavericks or do I need to go back to Mountain Lion or Snow Leopard?

It's not clear whether your printer is included in the Apple list - there is an Officejet 6100 and a couple of other types. Go to the page linked to above and use the browser search for 6100.
I'm afraid HP are notorious for not supporting older printers - I had the same problem. Probably they hope you will buy another printer (I did, but it was a Canon). I did look on HP's site and couldn't see a driver - you could give it a try (make sure you have the exactly correct printer name):
http://www8.hp.com/uk/en/support-search.html?tab=1#/qryterm=HP6100&search_search type=s-002
Alternatively ou could try Gutenprint (open source software):
http://gimp-print.sourceforge.net/MacOSX.php
I found it would indeed drive the printer, but the colour dithering wasn't very satisfactory and the duplex printing bolt-on wouldn't work. However as Gutenprint is free it's worth trying to see if it's any good for you.

After upgrading to FF4, my back, forward, buttons no longer work

After I upgraded to FF4, my back, forward, and refresh buttons no longer work. I have tried restarting with Addons disabled, still an issue. Even the Alt-back arrow does not work. As well, the URLs no longer appear in the address box when I use Most Visited shortcuts.

duh, I thought that I had disabled all the addons, but I hadn't. The culprit turned out to be: Favicon Picker 2 0.6.1.14.

After disabling this add-on, everything went back to normal.

Bios: The one on the board's download page, was 1.9 upgraded to 1.C
So anyway, as the thread name states i upgraded the bios. I did this through the liveupdate program (which i now after googling a bit, understand as something dumb to do) because it said that there was a new version ready.
The computer was running splendid before this, but after the bios update finished (i didn't see any errors) and it rebooted the black screen at startup (that states bios version etc.) stated "Harddisk not found!".
This seemed odd, haden't seen this before.
Anyway, i proceeded to the bios config screen and loaded the optimized defaults. Then i saved & exited and when the pc came to the "starting windows" screen(where the "orbs" fly towards eachother) my keyboard (which has led lights) turned black and 3 secs after that the computer reboots.
It goes on like that until i shut it off. Windows also asked if i wanted to do a repair, which i did, but didn't help at all.
The bios does find the harddisk in the config menus, so i don't really know whats going on.
I tried to reinstall the former bios, but that didn't help either.
So, i'm kind of stuck on what to do here.
Any idea what i could try?
Thanks for all answers.

Hey again, thanks sooo much for the answers.
I went into the bios and changed the sata options to AHCI instead of IDE which it was currently at.
And now it works perfectly fine, thanks again for the answer and I'm sorry for the trouble.
I won't update the bios again unless it updates something i specifically need, it's just that having everything up to date seemed like a good idea :\
Well, anyhow.. thanks again.

Upgraded, and now my original serial number won't work, can't use pages!

Hi everyone --
I recently upgraded my hard drive in my ibook g4, and backed everything up to an external hard drive. I've since transferred everything back, including iwork '05. Now I open pages and it asks me for the serial number...only thing is, I didn't keep the original box/book w/ serial numbers, and only have it written on a slip of paper -- I entered it, and it's not right! It's a series of 5sets of numbers/letters (QMMH-6CDS-etc.etc.). Do you think if I call apple they'll give me another one? If not, how the heck can I obtain a new serial number so I can use pages again? This is so frustrating...Thanks!

Laura,
I'm sorry you're having problems. iWork '05 was infamous for making some serial numbers difficult to enter. Make sure you properly distinguish between zeros and ohs. Zeros will have a dot in the center. Also make sure you enter a one and not a small L. They look very similar. Use the hyphens. Don't use the Caps Lock key.
Finally, don't ever throw out package materials that have serial numbers on them.

I allowed HP Assistant to update Bios now have no sound & video isn't working - HP Pav dv7 -6c27cl

I have tried the hard reboot that was suggested in another post on this issue and tried system restore to a time prior to this BIOS update that was installed, today. Also, am unable to play cd's. These attempts have been unsuccessful in resolving the sound and video issue that has occurred with the BIOS update.
How do I roll back to the previous BIOS Version? I need my laptop for my schooling and NEED my audio and video working. Any assistance with this would be most appreciated!!!
Thanks,
grannygrunt2

Try this:
All you have to do is download your sound/audio driver.
first, make sure nothin's attached to your laptop (ie cds, printer, headphones etc)
go to hp.com -> support & drivers - drivers & software - (put in your product name/number - you can find that at the bottom of your laptop) - at the drop down, select widows 64 bit (mostly) then hit next - at step 2, 'SELECT A DOWNLOAD', choose driver - audio - click the first blue link and hit save - after saving, your laptop will prompt you to run it. hit run.
then your laptop will reset, and it should produce sound.
**your kudos will be appreciated.

Just upgraded to iTunes 9.1 and Airtunes no longer works

So I just upgraded to iTunes 9.1. Have external speakers hooked up through my Airport Express to play my music wirelessly over AirTunes. The Airport Express option still shows up in the dropdown in iTunes, but when I select it and try to play music, there's no sound coming from my external speakers. Internal computer speakers still work. I've already tried restarting iTunes, my iMac and AirPort. Any other ideas? Thanks.

I'm having the same problem with iTunes 9 and Airtunes now. Is there a solution to this problem? It's driving me crazy!
Since a week, I've been using an iMac, with external speakers connected to my two Airport Expresses. Airtunes used to work fine on my recently deceased Windows PC+iTunes 8, until I bought my iMac which came with iTunes 9. Tried downgrading to iTunes 8, but doesn't work, because then iTunes won't accept my iPod Touch anymore (only with iTunes 9).
Another weird thing is that iTunes 9 seems to mess up my playlists when syncing with my iPod Touch. Selected playlists won't appear in my iPod Touch, while other playlists do appear in my iPod Touch, but empty. It's now solved by adding some extra (irrelevant in my opinion) rules to the playlists, but it's madness that one has to go through all these efforts just to correctly sync your playlists. What happened to user-friendliness?
Anyway, if anyone has a solution to the iTunes9/Airtunes problem, please let me know!

Now my AOL screen name no longer works....

I just activated an iPhone and updated iTunes. I sign into the Store using an AOL screen name that I have used without too many prior problems since the first day the Store opened. However, to activate the iPhone, I had to use my Apple ID.
Since then, I've only been able to sign in using the Apple ID. The AOL screen name now supposedly is one that "has not yet been used" at the Store, but when I try to create an Apple ID under that name when prompted, I am told the name already is in use. I actually don't want to use an Apple ID to access the Store since I haved unredeemed credit there and my computer is authorized to play five years' worth of purchases under that AOL account name. The problem manifests identically both on my MacBook Pro and my Dell laptop running XP, in an existing iTunes installation on the Mac and in a brand spanking new one on the Dell.
Apple email support remains lame for this issue. In the past, when I have had AOL screen name access issues, I get the canned response reminding me to be sure I am clicking the radio button for AOL sign-on and to be sure that my password is correct and that, if I still can't access the Store doing that, I should create an Apple ID to access the Store. There is no canned response that explains what else I can do. Luckily, in the past, similar problems resolved themselves despite Apple support's lack of useful instruction. Either the server stopped hiccuping or I was able to workaround by signing in, first, under my Apple ID, signing out, and then signing in under my AOL name. However, it's been more than 24 hours this time since I had access, longer than I've been locked out before.
Anyone else having this or similar AOL log-in problems right now? Thanks for all suggestions.

Just want to add one more thing: When I try signing in using the correct combination of AOL screen name and password, I get the error message saying that my screen name "has not yet been used" at the Store. However, when I try using another password just for grins, I get a message saying that the screen name and password combination does not match the Store's records. If the Store can discern a name/password mismatch, doesn't it seem clear that the Store does recognize that there's an active account in place under the name/password combination? Weird.
