Wi-fi Hardware uninstalled

Hello! I can not connect to the internet via wifi on my Mac Book Pro, but it is working through ethernet. It says that no wi-fi hardware is installed. The problem happened randomly without any changes or damages to the computer. Please help!

Test after taking each of the following steps that you haven't already taken. Back up all data before making any changes.
1. If you can connect to the Internet via Ethernet, Bluetooth, or a USB network device, make sure all available OS X updates are installed. If Wi-Fi is your only means of network access, skip this step.
2. Reset the NVRAM.
3. Reset the System Management Controller.
4. Boot into Recovery. In the menu bar of the OS X Utilities screen, there's a Wi-Fi menu. If it works, select Install OS X. If your Mac was upgraded from an older version of OS X, you’ll need the Apple ID and password you used to upgrade, so make a note of those before you begin.
5. Take the machine to an authorized service center for testing.

Vista has left the building...and the Recovery Disks do not work correctly.

I've spent over a month and a half trying to fix my non-booting Satellite A215-S5818 running Vista. Sometime mid-March (ah, the Ides of March!) I think I downloaded an automatic update and I remember the next time it booted my desktop was black; icons but no background picture. Then I noticed on the bottom right it was saying my copy of Vista was not genuine. I know that it is, because it is pre-installed. So I ran check disk from the Properties page of C: in Windows Explorer. After it ran, I got BSOD. At first I just booted into SafeMode and tried to disable whatever hardware/uninstall whatever software was causing the problem. I think I got it to boot in SafeMode once or twice, then no more. For a while I kept getting IRQL-NOT-LESS-OR-EQUAL, but I somehow stopped that through the command prompt(forum advice?). Startup Repair could not fix it, System Restore would not work on ANY restore points, even before March. The new BSOD error was:
"STOP: c000021a {Fatal System Error}-
The initial session process or system process terminated unexpectedly with a status of 0x00000000 (0xc0000221 0x00100594)"
From then on I could only get a command prompt through the Repair Console. So I xcopy-ed my Users directory to an external hard drive and grudgingly booted from the Toshiba CD, knowing it would obliterate everything, but I was desperate. I got the 03-EEEE-0000 error. Now I have a plethora of useless(?) CDs and DVDs I have burned ISO images on of any Freeware I thought could fix it, downloaded from the Internet using my husband's Windows 7 desktop computer. I followed these instructions to the letter and it worked (I guess; it started immediately, no DOS objection), but when it rebooted I got a window (!) saying something about the type of hardware. I haven't added or changed any hardware, but I have updated the BIOS recently. So I clicked OK (no other choice), and now every boot up I get a window saying "Windows could not complete the installation. To install Windows on this computer, restart the installation". Startup Repair does not find any problems. Could it be the BIOS? I have re-flashed it twice, no difference.

Oops! Sorry that was stupid on my part.
From the command prompt you could type in systeminfo , and hit the 'Enter' key, it will take a little while to run, when it finishes, scroll back up to the top and you'll see OS Version and Service Pack you've got loaded. But, if you're booting off the recovery disk, that's the system info you'll get.
If you can't get to the command prompt from the Advanced Boot Options menu, by trying to boot off the hard drive, and pressing F8, I'm not sure how you can find what Service Pack you have loaded.
By using the Recovery Boot Disk, have you exhausted all the recovery options that Jerry linked before?

PCI-7344 not found in MAX 3.1.1 after installing NI-Motion 7.0

Hi,
I updated my PCI-7344 + LabView 7.0 system with the newest NI-Motion 7.0. After the update the card was not anymore detected in MAX. There was a "broken" device PCI-7344 under NI Motion Devices, which status said something like "This device has been removed or could not be detected" and the Reset command said something like "Could not communicate with the device. Power cycle the computer..". I removed the device from the "Devices and interfaces" list and since that, MAX hasn't had a clue about the card. I've tried the "Create new.." function, but it doesn't show any NI Motion Devices or PCI-7344 anywhere else. I've also tried the Tools/Install legacy driver support, but MAX only notifies that the updates are OK. I've also tried removing the physical device, starting the computer and MAX, reinstalling the device and restarting MAX, but nothing changes. The device is recognised by BIOS as "Unknown device"; in Windows 2000 Pro, the device is well recognised as National Instruments PCI-7344.
One thing that could cause the problem is that I also have LabView 6i installed on the system, although I'm not currently using it for any purpose. Anyway, this seems to prevent the MAX from detecting the correct updates needed when using the "National Instruments Product Updates.." from Tools menu. Perhaps I need some driver software to correct this problem?
I also tried to uninstall the NI-Motion 7.0 and to install the NI-Motion 6.1.5, but after this, the MAX did not work correctly. For example, none of the branches in the configuration tree would expand and the MAX locked up when trying to use the Create New.. / NI Motion Device. Is there a way to uninstall the NI-Motion 7.0 and to replace it with NI-Motion 6.1.5 without removing all NI software from the system?
Before the update, with NI-Motion 6.1.5, the PCI-7344 card was correctly found in MAX and well usable in LabView 7.0.

Jouni,
A valid serial number is any number > 0. If you have multiple boards in you system, they must each have a unique serial number. This would be the case for any board coming out of manufacturing. The board Jochen had probably came from R&D and was a prototype board.
Your problem with downgrading from NI-Motion 7.0 to NI-Motion 6.1.5 was most likely due to the data stored in the MAX database. When you uninstall NI-Motion, the data in the MAX database remains. The NI-Motion 6.1.5 driver would not have been able to read the data correctly. The easiest way to "clear" this database is to delete the c:\Program Files\National Instruments\MAX\data folder. The only other way is to uninstall MAX, which requires that you uninstall everything. WARNING, Deleting the MAX data folder will delete all MAX settings and set them back to defaults for all NI hardware (uninstalling everything has this same affect, by the way). Downgrading is never as clean as upgrading.
The firmware on a Motion board can always be downgraded by forcing the download of firmware files. To do this, select the board in MAX under Devices and Interfaces. Click on the Firmware tab at the bottom on the window. Highlight "PCI-73XX Firmware" by clicking on it once. Right click on one of the items in the "Firmware name" column to the right. Select "Download All Files".
I do not have a good explaination for why NI-Motion 7.0 did not recognize your board. Do you have a second board you can try in the system? If not, could you ask your local sales representative if they have one you borrow for a quick test? Since the board is recognized by Windows 2000 Device Manager, I don't think there is an issue with the board, but it doesn't hurt verify this.
My best guess is that there was a confict during the installation process and your system did not get all of the required files. Though we do significant installer testing, there are rare occasions when a system is in such a state that the installation process does not function as expected. It is my experience that these rare instances do not occur on clean machines, but on machines that have had multiple products installed and uninstalled. If you do get a chance to try NI-Motion 7.0 again you may want to use these parameters to get the installer to create a log of the installation: "c:\setup.exe l*v c:\log.txt". This assumes that the setup.exe is in the c:\ directory. Go to start>>run and type this in without the quotes. The log file will be named log.txt in the c:\ directory.
Finally, you can technically use NI-Motion 7.0 in LabVIEW 6. You just need to copy the C:\Program Files\National Instruments\LabVIEW 7.0\vi.lib\Motion folder to the vi.lib folder of LabVIEW 6. Though this is not officially supported, there is no reason it shouldn't work.

Urgent help - Xtra and new firmware probl

After trying to get my Xtra to work with my new vista P.C i discovered that i needed to upgrade the firmware.
so after reading that it deletes the contents of the Xtras HDd ( formats it) i backed up everything and then downlaoded the firmware, and ran the upgrade.
and then it all came to a stop, a windows mnessage came on screen about transfering files using windows media player or take no action, i left this message alone then my Xtra re-booted as advised on screen, and now its stuck at
Rescue mode v.3, with all the usual options, most of which end with 'Firmware error' Before returning to the rescue screen.
The firmware upgrade only tells me that the player is not conected.
the big bigf problem is thatr i need the player to work for tommorow. ( UK time is now 0:45pm, i ned it working by 2:00 am)

Firefox 12 freezes when system volume is above 50%.

I'm using firefox 12, and when i watch a youtube video, or if i play music with any player, firefox hangs if the system volume is 50% or more. It hangs for 2-3 seconds, then comes back, then hangs again. I'm on a hp laptop with 8 gb of ram, intel i7 and idt high definition soundcard.

ok, this may be the strangest bug i ever heard of. i would try to download the latest drivers for your soundcard & graphics hardware, uninstall abobe flash with the [http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player/kb/uninstall-flash-player-windows.html uninstaller they provide] and reinstall it from [http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/]. another thing would be to try disabling all plugins in firefox > addons > plugins for testing purposes and see if this does make any difference.
in case this does not solve the issue it would also be interesting to know what is going on in the windows task manager (ctrl+shift+esc) while firefox is hanging - is firefox.exe or any other process is spiking to 100% cpu usage or is there an exceptional amount of memory occupied?

Help please - occasional shut-down after sleep & kernel panic

Hi all.
I have an intermittent problem here with an iMac 24in 2.66Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo model. This iMac was bought refurbished from the Apple store about 6 weeks ago.
About once a week, after putting the iMac to sleep, I come back to it later to find it has shut down. The only way to restart is to unplug from the wall and then plug in and switch on as normal.
This has happened on three occasions in the last couple of weeks, and by looking in System/Library/Logs/Diagnostic Reports I found what looks like a record of a kernel panic:

Since this last one I have reset the PRAM/NVRAM and updated to OS X 10.6.2. Is this likely to help or is there a more fundamental problem here?
Thanks for any help on this.

HI,
"AppleIntelCPUPowerManagement-"
First, try resetting the SMC. (System Management Controller)
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1543
Considering this iMac is well within the one year limited warranty, I'd take it back if resetting the SMC does not work. You should not have to trouble shoot kernel panics whether it's refurbished or not but read here for help to resolve kernel panics... something might help.
http://www.thexlab.com/faqs/kernelpanics.html
If you have installed any 3rd party software / hardware, uninstall and try using the iMac to see if it's stable.

Imac freezing - can internal SSD drive be to blame?

I have a mid-2011 27" imac with 12 GB RAM, Apple 251mb SSD as boot drive and 1TB second internal drive - all Apple original except for 8MB of the memory which was installed when new.
The last week the computer will start to freeze the longer it has been on. If I keep it turned off, it will boot and be usable for a while but will then start to die. The only configuration change was the addition of a passport external hard drive coinciding with running Time Machine. This had been installed about a month before any problems surfaced. Safari and Outlook seem to be the ones it starts freezing on first. I can get it to shut down but it may take 15 minutes.
Apple Hardware Diagnostics (Long Test) gives error 4MOT/4/40000003:HDD-1219 which is supposed to be a fan speed problem. Which drive would this be for as this would not make sense for the SSD, right?
I have done all the usual tests, PRAM, SMC, Memory Test, Apple Hardware, uninstalled Norton anti-virus, run disk utility. The only hardware issue I can find is listed above.
Anyone have any more ideas to try?

That almost always (as far as I know) indicates a HD problem, either fan related or the drive itself.
No indication of how to tell which drive it refers to in a multi drive setup like yours but it seems to be a safe bet that it's not related to the SSD.
You could down load iStat Menus, they have a 14 day free trial and monitor your temps to see if it is fan related.

I have not had wifi since November when I upgraded to the newest IOS version. I called the Apple help line and they told me some things to do and I tried them all and they worked for a few hours and then wifi shut off again. I kept doing what they told me and it worked for a couple more days and then I could never turn it on again. My blue tooth doesn't work either. I had to actually increase my data usage with AT&T becuase of this. When I did that in December I went to the Apple store and was told that it is a hardware issue and since my phone is out of warranty I would have to pay for a new phone because they could not fix the issue. My upgrade isn't up until June 2014 so not only do I have to wait for the upgrade and I am not paying for a new phone but I have to pay $10 plus extra a month on my cell phone bill because I was going over on my Data!!! I have been beyond upset about this and Apple is not doing anything about this nor did they offer up some way to resolve the issue because obviously it is not just some rare incident if several people are having this issue. Who knows how many people out there have had this issue and have not said anything about it. Now there is a newer update that I can't do because it requires wifi in order to download.
June can not get here fast enough and I may not go back to Iphone after dealing with this for so long with no help from Apple.

How do I delete a toolbar that was added by a plugin? Plug-in's been uninstalled, but the toolbar is still there and any new tabs open on their search engine (even though I have Tab Mix set to open tabs on a duplicate page). Help?

Running Firefox on Windows XP3. I installed a plugin from Savevid.com, which they now require. (I've used that site for at least a year with no problem ever.) Everything was fine but it added a toolbar to my browser, and it seems to have reset Firefox somehow so that any new tab opens on "Searchqu", some low-rent search engine. I uninstalled the plug-in altogether, but the toolbar is still there, and I can't make the reset on the search engine go away. I use Tab Mix Plus (also never had this problem before with it), but no matter what I do, the tabs will not open to anything other than searchqu. (Tab Mix has the option to open to a duplicate tab - what it was using BEFORE all this - but changing that no longer has any effect.)
Anyone know how to deal with a problem like this?

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
*Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe Mode start window or otherwise make changes.

Mac Pro, Windows 7 Virtual PC-XP Mode Problem w/ Hardware Virtualization

I have installed windows 7 (64 bit) on an 8 month old intel mac pro with latest bootcamp. runs great. cannot get virtual pc / xp mode to work.
confirmed latest firmware, confirmed processor has virtualization (vmx listed in processor details when boot to snow leopard).
when i run ms hardware-assisted virtualization detection tool it confirms hardware virtualization. after i install xp mode and virtual pc update i get an error message that there is no virtualization. ms hardware-assisted virtualization detection tool will now also report no virtualization. if i uninstall xp mode and virtual pc update, ms hardware-assisted virtualization detection tool will again confirm virtualization.
any thoughts? i searched forum but did not see anything - sorry if i missed it.
thanks in advance for input...

Because the hardware of Mac Pro does have Intel-VT capability, it's just disabled.
One solution (though a very lame one) is boot into OS X first, run VMware Fusion or Parallel (which enables Intel-VT), then restart into Windows.
Just hope there would be some way to enable Intel-VT on Windows...

Having a problem with Add-ons I did not install and now can't uninstall.

Lately I have experienced problems with re-directing and other issues with Mozilla. I looked in my add-ons list and there are several things there that i did not add manually. (I have been having much trouble with ITunes and noticed a plug in in mozilla and want to know if it is necessary.) Is there a way to keep this from happening? I have been using mozilla for years and liked it when I could do a basic install without any add-ons that I did not request. Here is a list of the things that are troubling me - I am sure a few may be necessary. I would appreciate any help anyone can give me with this?

(Just curious with these two Java consoles - which by the way I am unable to uninstall - the uninstall button is grayed out. and I can only disable.)
Really frustrated with this, I have already uninstalled Firefox and re-installed it - losing all my bookmarks and these add-ons were there after the re-install. PLEASE HELP!

For camera problem try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

I do not understand what you mean about your update problem

ITunes; uninstalling/reinstalling; iPod...a lot of problems...

A few months ago, my computer suffered a hiccup and went to the recovery console. During this time, all major programs on my computer, including iTunes, were deleted from the hard drive. Everything had to be installed. I didn't bother trying to deal with the iTunes problem until a day ago when I finally got it in what looked like running order.
When I connected my iPod (3rd gen. nano) it didn't show up in iTunes. (Also, my iTunes icon was a green music note and I'm pretty sure iTunes has a blue music note, don't know if that's significant, but it can't hurt). It also had some issues ejecting the iPod (i.e. it wouldn't let me from the "safely remove hardware" icon in the system tray) and I had to eject from My Docs. I tried resetting the iPod using the menu & center button but did not put it into disk mode. When today I tried to uninstall iTunes & Quicktime and reinstall a new version, it looked like it had uninstalled and was installing fine, but it got to a certain point and it said "stopping processes" and it froze. At this point, an error message popped up:
"Error 1921. Service iPod Service (iPodService) could not be stopped. Verify that you have sufficent privileges to stop system services"
At that point, I came to the forum for help.
I read a few things that said I should stop iPodService.exe from the task manager as well as "AppleMobileDevice" but I didn't want to do that unless absolutly necessary.
I'm hoping that since I created an account (I had been using my sister's before the computer went into recovery mode) that will solve the problem.
Also, the green-music-note-version of iTunes doesn't seem to have an uninstall feature so I'm not sure how I'm supposed to go about a full uninstall.
I hope I've given enough information and someone can give me a helping hand.
If there is any other information that someone needs to help diagnose the problem, I'm more than happy to provide it.

Firefox won't do the Master Password thing on mynew laptop. I have to eneter P/W's on each site i vist. it has worked fine on my PC, but even after i uninstall and reinstall Firefox, it still doesn't work.

i used to run the Norton password feature (it came w/ the new laptop) but now that i switched to McAfee, it doesn't recognize when i go to different sites. I've set up everything in the Mozilla menu (Tools, Options, Security, etc). it doesn't ask me of it want it to remember the password when log into Yahoo/Google/Facebook/etc)
i really like this feature and would like to figre out how to make it work. it works fine on my PC, by the way, just not on my laptop

I have had a similar problem with my system. I just recently (within a week of this post) built a brand new desktop. I installed Windows 7 64-bit Home and had a clean install, no problems. Using IE downloaded an anti-virus program, and then, because it was the latest version, downloaded and installed Firefox 4.0. As I began to search the internet for other programs to install after about maybe 10-15 minutes my computer crashes. Blank screen (yet monitor was still receiving a signal from computer) and completely frozen (couldn't even change the caps and num lock on keyboard). I thought I perhaps forgot to reboot after an update so I did a manual reboot and it started up fine.
When ever I got on the internet (still using firefox) it would crash after anywhere between 5-15 minutes. Since I've had good experience with FF in the past I thought it must be either the drivers or a hardware problem. So in-between crashes I updated all the drivers. Still had the same problem. Took the computer to a friend who knows more about computers than I do, made sure all the drivers were updated, same problem. We thought that it might be a hardware problem (bad video card, chipset, overheating issues, etc.), but after my friend played around with my computer for a day he found that when he didn't start FF at all it worked fine, even after watching a movie, or going through a playlist on Youtube.
At the time of this posting I'm going to try to uninstall FF 4.0 and download and install FF 3.6.16 which is currently on my laptop and works like a dream. Hopefully that will do the trick, because I love using FF and would hate to have to switch to another browser. Hopefully Mozilla will work out the kinks with FF 4 so I can continue to use it.
I apologize for the lengthy post. Any feedback would be appreciated, but is not necessary. I will try and post back after I try FF 3.16.6.

I upgraded to FF 7.0.1 and it won't load. If I try to uninstall it, it says it is running. I have uninstalled and rebooted and installed an earlier version but the program won't open. Can someone please help me?

I have tried everything I can think of and that has been suggested in your knowledge base but FF will not open. I have downgraded to an earlier version but that didn't help so I've uninstalled everything and have done a clean reinstall of 7.0.1. I've rebooted at each step.
However when I tried to bring my bookmarks into Chrome (so I could keep working) it said FF was open. Same thing when I went to uninstall it. Task Manager does not show it running. Chrome is working so it's not my internet connection.
I have not installed any new software or hardware recently although I did upgrade Roboform to the latest version. This was the reason to update FF as the RF addon wasn't compatible with the version of FF I was using.
I've scanned for viruses and the machine is clean.
I am on a PC running Windows 7 Home Premium. At the moment I am working off my old laptop but I need FF working on my main machine.
Any help greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Kathy

Thanks for this mha007 - I can now open FF with a new profile. Can I copy my settings from the old profile or will this bring over the same problem, maybe a corrupt file. If it would bring the same problem, is there any way I can check which file is corrupt, apart from taking them over one by one?
