  • Why does my wifi not work

    My Ipad had a hard time picking up wifi when i 1st bought it. Now after a couple of months has stopped picking up wifi.

    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.

  • Why does photo stream not work on 4g

    Hi, I have a iPhone and a Mac and an iCloud account, but why does photo stream not work on 4g, but as soon as I connect to wifi, it send photos to photo stream, can please tell why it does not send photos to photo stream when on 4g, thanks.

    The data requirements for sending potentially many photos can be too taxing/costly on a carrier's data plan.

  • Wifi not working again and poor customer service

    VERIZON IS THE ABSOLUTE WORST!!There is no good way to put it.Their products seldom work and their customer service is by the worst for any company that I have ever dealt with.They have to be embarrassed with their customer service, but clearly they are not since nothing changes. My internet is out non-stop and every time that I call them it takes around 1 hour to get through. The last phone call that I made (last Monday June 22nd) took 1 hour and 15 minutes before I got through.That is a disgrace and a complete slap in the face to your customers.They never fix the issue. They just put a band aid on it.They said they would send me out a new router that would arrive on Wednesday June 24th. Here I am one week later and we still don’t have a router. I told my wife this would happen. Verizon is so incompetent that it’s easy to predict their next mishap.You would think they would offer to credit my account for the amount of days that I don’t have internet service but that would actually only happen with companies that care about their customers.I know I am just venting to no one, but I would rather vent her than call and sit on hold for an hour before speaking to someone to vent to.I am just counting down the days until my contract is up.I thought Comcast was bad, but they are superior to the garbage service and product that Verizon provide. Bob P.

    For the wireless issue, I point to http://forums.verizon.com/t5/FiOS-Internet/Why-your-Wi-Fi-is-slow/td-p/534451 Note what is said there, also applies to why the wireless is not working - not just why if the wireless is up it is slow.

  • Network controller& USB controller driver not found and wifi not working

    hello  I Purchased HP 15-ac025TX (M9V00PA) Notebook laptop  .  i have installed all driver from HP site here is the link  http://support.hp.com/in-en/drivers/selfservice/HP-15-Notebook-PC-series/7771404/model/8326084#Z7_3054ICK0KGTE30AQO5O3KA30R1  but still netwok controller driver not found also wifi not  working  i installed blutooth drivers too . I am using window 7 sp1 (32 bit) For network controller device ID is PCI\VEN_14E4&DEV_4365&SUBSYS_804A103C&REV_01 secondly  univeral serial bus driver(usb) controller   not found i installed all drivers from above link  also update windows  but still no solution hardware id of usb controller is PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_9CB1@SUBSYS_80C2103C&REV_03  and last i am unable to download  AMD/Intel Switchable High-Definition (HD) Graphics Driver. the download link not working KINDLY RESOLVE THE ISSUE THANK YOU    

    Update: While the driver I knew would work has not shown up yet, I did some detective work and explored some other broadcom wireless card driver folders from some HP links, and I found one that should work for you. While it says it is for HP desktop PC's, they put the exact same wireless card form factor in a desktop PC that they do in a notebook PC. I see no reason why this driver would not work, since the setup information file contains the same hardware ID that you posted.  Here is a partial copy and paste of the driver setup information file and you can see the hardware ID you posted is supported by this driver.  x86 - Win7

  • Why does quicktime does not work on os lio

    why quicktime x does not work on OS Lion

    QuickTime does work under 10.7, however you may want to check that you're opening the newest copy of it by going to your Applications folder and opening it from there.
    If you keep having trouble with opening it, please let us know what error you might be getting. QuickTime X will open with just a menu bar, then you can go to the file menu and choose to open any file you wanted to open, or choose one of the screen or audio recording options.

  • Why Dynamic Parameter is not working, when i create report using stored procedure ?

    Post Author: Shashi Kant
    CA Forum: General
    Hi all
    Why Dynamic Parameter is not working, when i create report XI using stored procedure ?
    Only i shaw those parameters which i used in my stored procedure, the parameter which i create dynamic using stored procedure
    is not shown to me when i referesh the report for viewing the results.
    I have used the same procedure which i mention below but can not seen the last screen which is shown in this .
    ============================================================================================
    1. Select View > Field Explorer2. Right-click on Parameter Fields and select New from the right-click menu.3. Enter u201CCustomer Nameu201D as the name for your parameter4. Under u201CList of Valuesu201D select u201CDynamicu201D5. Under the Value column, click where is says u201Cclick here to add itemu201D and select Customer Name from the drop-down list. The dialog shown now look like the one shown below in Figure 1. Click OK to return to your report design.
    Dynamic Parameter Setup6. Next, select Report > Select Expert, select the Customer Name field and click OK.7. Using the drop-down list beside select u201CIs Equal Tou201D and using the drop-down list, select your parameter field (it should be the first field). 8. Click OK to return to your report design and see the parameter dialog.The parameter dialog will appear and show you a dynamic list of values that is updated each time your run your report. It couldnu2019t be easier! In our next tutorial, we will be looking at how to use this feature to create cascading parameter fields, where the values are filtered by the preceding selection.
    Dynamic Parameters in Action
    My question is that whether dynamic parameter is working with storedprocedure or not.
    When i added one table and try to fetch records using dyanmic prameters. after that i am not be able to find the dynamic parameter option when i referesh my report.
    One more thing when i try the static parameter for my report, the option i see when i referesh the screen.
    Please reply soon , it's urgent
    Regards

    Hi Kishore,
    I have tested the issue step by step by following you description, while the first issue works well in my local environment. Based on my research, this can be caused by the lookup expression or it indeed return Male value based on the logic. If you use the
    expression below, it will indeed only return the Male record. So please try to double-check the record in the two datasets and the expression in your environment:
    =lookup(first(Fields!ProgramID.Value,"DataSet1"),Fields!ProgramID.Value,Fields!Gender.Value,"DataSet2")
    As to the second issue, please try to use the following expression:
    =Count(Lookup(fields!ProgramID.value,fields!ProgramID.value,fields!Gender.value,"DataSet2"))
    Besides, if this issue still exist, in order to trouble shoot this issue more efficiently, could you please post both the .rdl  file with all the size properties to us by the following E-mail address?  It is benefit for us to do further analysis.

  • Why does Acrobat suddenly not work on my Mac (won't open pdf files from a web page), yet I can open them from my iPhone? Everything worked fine yesteray.

    Hello:
    I have a Mac running OS 10.8.5 and I use Acrobat Pro and Acrobat Reader. Today for some reason, any time I try and access a pdf file from a web page, it won't open. I get a blank window. PDF files already on my computer open fine and I can create PDF files from Word docs, but I can't download or view any pdf file from any web page. Strangely, PDF files on web pages open just fine on my iPhone.
    I checked that both my copy of Acrobat Pro and Acrobat Reader are up-to-date. They are.
    I checked that my copy of Firefox is up-to-date. It is. And nothing changed with Firefox within the last 24 hours.
    I am a humble computer end-user. I am baffled as to why this would suddenly not work. I have not changed any settings, etc. Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

    Thank you.
    I checked your instructions you sent and as far as I can tell all of my settings, etc for Firefox (plugin updates and preferences) are correct but I am having the same problem.
    However, everything works in Safari. I don't have time to attempt to diagnose why Firefox no longer works. I will just switch to Safari.
    Many thanks.

  • Why does adobe flash not work in my firefox. i have down loaded it several times. it will work in explorer and chrome.

    why does adobe flash not work in my firefox. i have down loaded it several times. it will work in explorer and chrome.

    IE uses a different version of Flash than other browsers use. You need to install the Plugin version of Flash for Firefox.
    1.Download the Flash setup file from here: <br />
    [http://fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player.exe Adobe Flash - Plugin version]. <br />
    Save it to your Desktop.<br />
    2. Close Firefox using File > Exit <br />
    then check the Task Manager > Processes tab to make sure '''firefox.exe''' is closed, <br />
    {XP: Ctrl+Alt+Del, Vista: Shift+Ctrl+ESC = Processes tab}
    3. Then run the Flash setup file from your Desktop.

    Are you talking about a custom workspace, or actual panels made with Configurator?  If the former, then go Preferences > Sync settings.  If the latter, then those Flash panels no longer work in CC 2014.  Check out any of the multiple threads about Extensions being greyed out.
