What's with this "stay connected" pop up message?

Hi all,
I just got a new G5 Intel iMac and have had great success transfering all of my setting and data from my old g4 iMac via the Migration Assistant and Target Disk Mode to the new machine. No problems at all. It was a breeze!
However, now that the new machine is up and running I periodically get this message: "This is your reminder that your connection is still active. Do you wish to remain connected?" Then it offers two buttons: " Disconnect" and "Stay connected" I remember that with an older version of OS 10, either Panther or Jaguar, I would get such messages but there was a System Preferences panel in which you could shut this message off and stay permanently online without having to hang around during long downloads and punching the "Stay connected" button. This message never appeared on the old G4 iMac even though I was running the very same version of Tiger (10.4.8) on it that I now have on the new iMac. Apparently the setting to turn off this message didn't transfer over and, what's worse, there is nowhere I can find in the Tiger System Preferences where I can shut it off.
Does anyone know how to do this?
Thanks everyone.
Rick

Hi Steve,
Thanks for the quick response! I looked at the "about this Mac" in the Apple menu and here's what it states:
"2 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo"
I tell you this because I originally posted this question in the iMac G5 forum and they told me to post it over here in the Intel Mac forum. I'm starting to get even more confused.
Also, I looked again at the Network setting in System Preferences and there is no PPP or Options choice anywhere. Instead it just tells me this:
"Built-in Ethernet is set up to use PPPoE." and "You are connected to the internet via Built-in Ethernet."
And I am indeed connected via the ethernet port to a DSL modem. I do remember in previous versions of OS 10 doing exactly what you suggested in your post to get that blasted pop-up message to stop annoying me and, like you said, "Problem [was] gone". This message never bothered me on my old iMac g4 (which was a power PC Mac) but now, maybe because of this new chip it's baaaaaack So with this further information do you have any other ideas?
Thanks again,
Rick

Staying Connected Pop Up Message

Im feeling a little slow and annoyed.
i got my macbook pro a few weeks ago and since i got it as long as i have been connected online either wireless or wired, a message pops up that says " your internet connection is still active. would you like to stay connected? " .. it pops up every 20 minutes and if i dont answer quick enough it disconnects me from online.
Its become really annoying. I've gone through system preferences bout 20 times trying to figure out how to turn it off so it just stays connected without asking me if i want to stay connected every 20 minutes. If u got any ideas on how to turn it off, plz send them my way.
thanks if u can help

My iPhone 5 got problem when connect with lighting cable, this will keep pop up message "this accessory may not be supported"

My iPhone 5 got problem when connect with lighting cable, this will keep pop up message "this accessory may not be supported", I can't charge or sync at all. I tried plug and unplug many time, still can't detect/charge my iPhone5, but sometime will 'lucky' that can connect to my iTunes and charge battery…
This message will auto pop up also when I don't have plug anything in my iPhone 5, It is very annoying…
The lighting cable is original and now i'm using OS 7.0.4 / iTunes is 11.1.3
What I can do to fix this problem? Thank you.

I would try using another cable you can likely borrow one to test from somebody
if it's the same then likely the connector in your iphone have been damaged

EZ100 16gb what's with this thing????

%[ Okay, bought one of these the other day to replace my iPod 4gb nano, not that there was anything wrong with it, I just want a new player with bigger storage capacity and I went for the Mozaic EZ00 because Argos were selling it for ?69. So, I get it home, charged it up, updated it to the latest firmware and then piled on the music. This is were it seems to go so wrong!!! I'm not impressed at all with the sound quality of this thing, and I was using my expensi've in ear earphones, also the quality of photos and album art is just atrocious, and this is the killer punch...it just keeps on sticking and skipping during playback of every single track!!! I went into recovery mode, did a disc clean up, even reformatted it and again put the music on only this time it only plays the tracks fine when the unit is locked!!!! So, what's with this thing?? This is my first experience of a Creative product and I fear it may be the last, not impressed, will be taking it back to Argos. Anyone else had similar problems?

(seasons) greetings all!
so out of the blue I get a nano for Christmas (it's blue ;-)) and the person who bought it is in windows but new I ran mac.
unfortunataly he did not know i needed a mac newer than my 3 year old ibook. after years of hearing my boasts of superior macs i hesitate to tell him i cannot use my new gift until i buy a new ibook/macbook... whatever.
i don't really have a question for this post but just wanted to add my comments. what a scam that to get the latest in a music listening gadget your get sucked into the itunes 7 mandantory hence osx.3 mandantory hence your 3 year old still viable and beloved ibook is impotent.
can't believe this may force me to buy a new laptop when there is no other reason. mac products should not have a lifetime of just a few years.
hope everyone else can enjoy their wonderful new mac holiday gifts... i cannot

What wrong with this?

I have a video that has sound, I brought it into afteraffects, made a composition and made some changes. I exported the composition (rendered it) for quick time to edit in photoshop - the video is about 7 minutes.
Playing the video there is no sound....why?
Bringing the video into photoshop for editing with content aware fill creates 500+ frames......is that normal?
also whats the easiest way to move between aftereffects and photoshop in terms of editing frames? can I make changes in photoshop and watch it update in after effects?

What wrong with this?
Everything! Sorry, it's simply the most ill-conceived workflow I could imagine.

Bringing the video into photoshop for editing with content aware fill creates 500+ frames......is that normal?
Yes. All video editing in PS is limited to 500 or 1000 frames, repsectively. There is no way to extend that range. Read the PS help!
also whats the easiest way to move between aftereffects and photoshop in terms of editing frames?
You don't. What you have in mind won't work, anyways. Content Aware Fill only works per frame and has no temporal stabilization, so each frame will have a different pattern and the resulting animation would flicker and wobble.
can I make changes in photoshop and watch it update in after effects?
That's what use File --> Reload Footage for or simply close and reopen the project.

This accessory is not optimal for use with this iphone keeps popping up on my phone how do i stop it?

Can be caused by lint, dirt, or foreign material in the dock connector port and it doesn't take much.
Can also be caused by damage to the pins in the dock connector port including moisture damage.

First...Stop screaming. It's rude.
Next...there are some minor problems with your feed. "Drum n Bass" is not a iTunes category. Stick with <itunes:category text="Music" /> remove the others.
Not required, but recommend to add an <itunes:explicit> tag with a Y or N depending on what suits your podcast. The iTunes staff will remove your feed if it isn't tagged properly.
MP3 audio files should have a type="audio/mpeg".
Keep the Podcast spec handy...the categories and other info listed in the spec.
Test your feed with http://www.feedvalidator.org it will point out problems with your feed.
The bigger problems stem from your podcast enclosure, specifically the URL.
The URL you have listed to the podcast mp3 apparently has changed so iTunes can't download the file. It also appears that you are using a "free download" kind of service that uses web page based downloads, which might account for why the URL keeps changing. Don't think that iTunes will be able to properly download the file.

private void clearDefaultTableModel(
DefaultTableModel dtm) {
int rowCount = dtm.getRowCount();
for(int i =0; i < rowCount; i++) {

it should be

   int rowCount = dtm.getRowCount();
   for(int i =0; i < rowCount; i++) {
     dtm.removeRow(0);
}or another way

IOS6 on iphone 4S. My phone keeps disconnecting from my wifi. I have to input the password each time. The only way i can keep wifi connected is to disable cellular data....what's with this????!!!!!

I downloaded IOS6. The next day my iphone was not connecting to wifi. I reset network connections...put in my password and voila it worked!....But then it dosconnected again..and again...and again....my wifes iphone 4 is not having this problem and she also installed IOS6. The only way I can stay connected to wifi is if i disable my cellular data. What is going on???...Anyone?......

Is it a BT Yahoo account? If so, there have been quite a few threads about Yahoo constantly rejecting passwords, with no clear fix.
That said, I did see someone post that they'd resolved the problem by eliminating any capital letters from the password. After that it stopped asking for passwords and started working, apparently. One or two others tried the 'fix' and seemed to have the same success. At least they haven't come back to say it had gone wrong again.

Thank you. How do i amend this? I have defined value1though.Yes, you did - but after the call to addFocusListener(...). It needs to be before it.
BTW, you did the same thing with "value2.addFocusListener(this)" and "sum.setEditable(true)" on the next two lines. You're attempting to call a method on an object that doesn't exist yet (i.e., you haven't called new yet).

What's with this "stay connected" pop up message?
