Wi-fi in Windows 7 Bootcamp drops after a few seconds
Hi there, I'd be really grateful for any help or advice anyone could offer me.
I just bought a 27" iMac (2013, Haswell) and have set up a Windows 7 Professional Bootcamp on the hard drive. I installed the Apple support driver pack and everything seems to be working fine. Everything that is, except wireless internet in Windows 7.
When I first boot into Windows 7 the wi-fi works perfectly. It connects to my router, it can load websites and begin downloads. But usually after about 10 seconds to a minute the taskbar wi-fi icon will have an ! next to it and no websites or downloads will work. To be clear, the wi-fi works perfectly in OSX (Mavericks) and for a few moments it works just as well in Windows.
I have checked my device manager and the driver for the Broadcom 802.11ac Network Adapter is present and accounted for, not to mention all the other drivers that suggest the Apple Bootcamp pack installed correctly. Downloads in particular seem to make it break faster - when I run Windows network diagnostics on it to get it fixed it says 'Troubleshooting has completed: The connection between your access point, router or cable modem and the Internet is broken Detected !, and The default gateway is not available Fixed *tick*'). This makes the connection work again but only for a few minutes...
I have done a lot of googling and there seem to be several problems with Windows 7 wireless in Boot Camp, but I can't seem to find my particular problem (where it obviously works, but something interferes) or any working method to solve it.
Thanks very much for your time.

also this is what shows when the yellow ! sign shows on wifi bars. I have to -troubleshoot- option so it gets connected again...
Issues found Detection details
6 The connection between your access point, router, or cable modem and the Internet is broken Detected
The network gateway is accessible, but Windows couldn’t receive network traffic from the Internet.
You have a local connection to your Wireless Access Point but the upstream router/gateway is unable to pass traffic past it. Can you describe your network topology?
6 The default gateway is not available Fixed
The default gateway is a device that connects a local network or computer to the Internet. A broadband modem or router is usually the default gateway.
I read something about ''netsh winsock reset'' on cmd but since this is bootcamp windows I havent tried anything like this yet. as you can see It's like the first post, same issue, only on bootcamp win, OS X connection wont drop .
You may be better off using ipconfig/release and ipconfig/renew. Winsock reset is going to reset Network Adapter, which is not necessary. In your Device Manager -> Network Adapter, what are the entries? OS X has a completely different driver, so a comparison can lead to erroneous conclusions.
Here is an example on my machine with some additional windows for driver versions. Can you post what you have?

Window turns green after a few seconds -Help-
Ok, I'm certain that my qt drivers are up to date. Whenever I try to play ANY video file in qtplayer, the window does this really strange panning of green until its entirely full. Then the player freezes and the audio gets real choppy. I've got no choice but to close it out (which i can only do from the task manager) and try to boot the player again. Does it every time and I can't watch but a few seconds of video. I'd love some help with this pleeeease!
Green screen video (as opposed to a normal video playback) nearly always indicate a problem with the video card or its drivers.
There really isn't a QuickTime driver. -
Finder and application windows, become inactive after a few seconds
I just finished restoring a G4 from a disk crash, installed new disk drive and a clean OS X 10.3.9. Than I restored the user's home directory and all end user applications. I am not exactly sure when I noticed this behavior, but I performed the basic troubleshooting steps below already :
• Removed any third party System Control panel
• AppleJack complete routine
• Removed Finder plist
• Switched to another user, with same result
• Booted up in SAFE MODE, no change either
• Reviewed system logs and other logs, and found no hint to his problem
• Monitored Activity Viewer for unknown services running
About every 15 seconds, the foremost window becomes grayed out/inactive. Clicking on it makes it active again, and if you start typing anything, it will not complete, due to the window going inactive again.
I have researched the net, but found not similar issue reported.
So if anyone can shed some light on this, short of re-installing the OS, it would make my long day or night by now.
Thanks in advance.Will I lose my emails I have on there? I have numerous client email files and can't afford to lose any of them. I do have everything backed up but I'm fearful of losing important client info. What if something happened during the back up and it doesn't have my files?

Video freezes after a few seconds
This is actually a continuation of a post I made almost a year and a half ago, trying to get video chat going so my mom can visit with her grandkids. The thread has been archived, so I can't post there but in case it helps here's the address:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1658017&tstart=0
We are both running Tiger 10.4.11 and iChat AV 3.1.9 (v446), although she's on a 1.25 GHz G4 with 1.5 GB of RAM, and I'm on a 1.8 GHz iMac G5 with 1 GB of RAM. We both have the exact same videocamera, Canon Elura 70, attached via Firewire. Both computers recognize the cameras fine, no problems there.
Anyway, my sister and I have tried 1,000 different things but nothing works. I can always see her but not hear her, and the connection is dropped after a few seconds, saying there's insufficient bandwidth to maintain the conference. She can't see me at all, but she can hear me. The chat usually ends with error -20 and sometimes -22. For instance, here's the log from our try today:
*2010-01-29 11:49:30 -0600: No data has been received for the last 10 seconds.*
*Audio channel info: local machine using 10.0.1.3:16386, expecting remote machine to send to 97.83.147.78:56754*
*Video channel info: local machine using 10.0.1.3:16384, expecting remote machine to send to 97.83.147.78:56752*
*Chat ended with error -20*
*Chat ended with error -20*
*Chat ended with error -22*
*Chat ended with error -22*
The thing is, we can video conference successfully (video and audio) with each other from separate rooms if we're both at her house, as well as from separate rooms when we're both at mine. However, when we're each at our own home, it won't work. She's got a download speed of 8.5, and mine is 8.3. Her upload speed is 1.01 and mine is 1.74.
I am connected through a router - SMC Barricade (SMC7004VBR), and a WebStar modem. We've both taken the tape out of our camera, set our bandwidth limit in iChat to none. System Preferences > Quicktime > Streaming is at 1.5Mbps. I've learned how to access my router settings but I don't see a DoS or SPI setting. It shows firewall features are disabled.
We've also tried to connect with Skype instead, and I was able to see my sister without it freezing. But she couldn't see me, so it still didn't fully work.
I'm totally at a loss. Any ideas?
Edit: Forgot to say her modem is an Ambit U10C018.
Message was edited by: laburkeWow, thank you so much for the detailed response. I'm actually feeling a little bit of hope that we might get this figured out eventually!
iChat 3.x at both ends.
Can Login and show Buddy Lists
Can Send Visible Invites.
Can Start Video Chat but something says the Bandwidth is then not good enough.
Error Message.
All true, except she has never been able to see me unless we're both in the same my house.
The Intranet /LAN setting in Tiger for iChat 3 also returns Odd figures to
iChat so we have long said set it to 1.5Mbps which your last post says it is.
I take it you must have restarted iChat f not the Mac(s) since you changed
this setting ? (Just covering all bases)
Right.
Have you changed the range the SMC uses to miss the range the modem is using ?
The only change I've made to anything recently is in iChat prefs: Under Accounts - Server settings, I changed the top port to 443 because regular iChat kept disconnecting at odd times and I read somewhere that it might help. But we had this AV problem long before that, and after.
I see the SMC cannot Forward enough ports for iChat but Can do UPnP
(Universal Plug and Play)
Is it set to do UPnP ?
I don't see anything that says UPnP. It says:
GATEWAY
IP Address: 192.168.2.1
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
DHCP Server: Enabled
Firewall: Disabled
On the Port Forward site there are two WebSTARs listed under
Scientic Atlanta
DO you have either of these ?
No, it is a DPC2100.
I could also do with seeing an old log of an Error 20 log.
They are stored in You Home Folder/Library/Logs/iChatConnectionErrors
Can you post the bits down and only down to the line that starts "Binary Images for iChat"
Pasted at bottom of this post.
Can you tell me if there is a Wifi and Ethernet connection to the Router ? (at > the same time )
My husband's PC is connected to the router via Ethernet. The only other things connected to it are the modem and my Airport Express so I can get online with my Macs. (I used to have the iMac connected by Ethernet before I realized I had an Airport card. Duh.)
Thanks so much for your patience and help!

Losing connection after a few seconds
Hi all,
My network connection drops after a few seconds from restarting network (with /etc/rc.d/network restart). This has started happening a few days ago and I don't remember doing anything out of ordinary. Conky still reports some (very little) network traffic (4.0kb down, 0.1kb up, around that), but no browser works, and even ping doesn't work. Can anybody point me to the right direction?
Thank youamoradi wrote:

The right direction would be posting more info and checking some chardware is applicable: are you using wired or wireless, if wired, check the cable, restart the router if you're using one, are you using dhcpcd or some other app etc. etc. -
Wireless Connection drops after a few moments
Hello everbody!
Background: I have a cheap laptop with a windows only ACPI module, so I have to set acpi=off at all times anyway. I tried Ubuntu, which has the wireless problem too, but instead of repairing something bloated like Ubuntu, I now found my way to Arch to make it right from the beginning.
If the wireless problem gets solved, I want to go on installing the nvdia driver, maybe configure xmonad. (I want to try KDE4 for fun too though, eyecandy you know ) Simple working desktop without getting my laptop heated up like windows does.
The problem: I set up my wireless connection like the wiki says:
-The original SSID was "FRITZ!Box Fon WLAN 7270 Annex A" which I tried to escape with \ and using 'ssid'. This wouldn't work at all, if you have any explanation for that I'd love to know it. I changed the SSID to something without spaces and special characters and the connection would work. But it would be nice to change it back to the original.
-So it works now. Fine, I thought. But the connection drops after a few moments and I have to "killall wpa_supplicant dhcpcd" and start them again to make it work again. For a few moments only. So I went through the logfiles and found error messages which Google wouldn't help me solve on my own. Now I'm asking the Arch specialists here
Note: Using the partedmagic livecd, the wireless connection works out of the box and absolutely stable. I believe even a bit faster than under windows. So it has to work perfectly, I just don't know how to make it in Arch yet.

Thanks in advance to anyone helping me! I really really want to get Arch going. It's ideal for this laptop, no wasting of disk space, ressource friendly, the temperature doesn't go up as much with less cpu usage I guess..
I've written quite a bit, but hopefully this makes it easier for you to help me! I've included all I thought which could be useful.
Greetings from Germany,
FenrisThe easiest solution might be to setup NetCfg somehow with your wifi card and access point. Have you tried that? Can you find your card's chipset on the wiki?(chances are that your particular chipset will need a firmware put into /lib/firmware. Again that's found on the wiki on the NetCfg or Wifi page, I forget which sorry.) Those are two places where I'd look for good information.
By the way, your rc.conf is way out of date. You should look at updating it by using the recent rc.conf.pacnew file that you'll find in the /etc directory. -
Firefox is locking up VERY frequently after every few seconds unless I minimize the window and maximize it again. But then in a few seconds it locks up again, I am unable to click anything or DO anything and it is becoming extremely annoying! Ya'll just released a new version that I'd hoped would have fixed this issue, apparently not...and I also can't select an option in a drop down box, I have to use my keyboard to do so...
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox openedYeah I'm seeing this as well. A force quit and relaunch seems to solve the problem for a while.
IMHO the app has just gone downhill in the last few years. Useful tools like browser history from the back button are hidden / rendered useless (click and hold doesn't work so well from a track pad), and it's performance just isn't what it used to be. -
my bootcamp download stops after a few seconds. it takes forever but does not move. Could someone help?
For Windows Support Software: the download size is around 600MB - 1GB. Depends on your Mac Model. There are server problems but a good idea is to check from iStat menu's or something else if there is some activity.
Also, make sure that in your network settings:
Uncheck Automatic Proxy Detection
Uncheck Passive FTP Mode -
Incoming calls from telephones to my skype number drop after 3-5 seconds
Incoming calls from telephones to my skype number drop after 3-5 seconds
I spent a while trying to seriously diagnose this problem with Skype support a year ago, but didn't get anywhere; I came to the conclusion that there was something wrong with the network at my end. But it's irritating me again now, so I thought I'd check whether anyone else gets this problem. It's incoming calls only, to the skype number only. I can recieve incoming calls from Skype fine, I can make outgoing calls to Skype and to telephone numbers fine, the problem affects both Skype on my Android Mobile (when it's connected to my home WiFi) and Skype on my Windows Desktop - so, not a software configuration thing.
When making a test call from my mobile to my Skype In number, it drops at the Skype end several seconds before the mobile notices the line is dead; definitely dropping out at the Skype level, and not the telephone network level.Hi, ScottMaggie, and welcome to the Community,
I have referred your report to those to whom I report; I am not affiliated with Skype Customer Service.
What you so well describe here, a number transfer (highlighted by me in orange type) is not something Skype has the facility to do:
None would agree to moderate between myself and the current number holder to do a transfer. If that person simply gives up the number it would be a 90 day wait with no way to guarantee I'd get the number back. They need to do a transfer as this is the only way to make it work. I have no way to contact them aside from calling the number and leaving voicemails.
In the system's simplicity, there is no flexibility.
Just out of curiosity ... and curiosity alone, have you checked the e-mail address on your account to double-check it is the correct registered e-mail address? I ask because I recently did a Skype Number renewal, and I received e-mail alerts every step of the way.
Best regards,
Elaine

Video both in source window and edit window stops after just a few seconds. It also runs slow after a few seconds. I don't if the problem is the fact that it;'s a Vimeo down load. Any one got a suggestion as to why?

When I connect my guitar using apogee jam the note drops off after a few seconds. Why???
When I connect my guitar using apogee jam the note drops off after a few seconds. Why???
Its the same on most of the preset amps.
Please help, the apogee cost me £80!Is it stopping recording after 8 seconds? Are you using Garage Band?
If both of these are correct:
This is actually a feature (i'm not sure why it defaults to this). Instructions for the iPhone version are below:
With the amp section open, touch the sproket on the upper right.
You should be in a "settings" type area with three tabs. Touch "Sections"
Select the section and switch it to automatic - it will now record until you stop recording by touching the stop icon. -
I have a problem with my MBP.
One day something weird started happening. Every time I would copy / save / download something on my desktop it got deleted automatically after a few seconds. On very very rare occasions this would not happen.
This has been going on for 3 months now and I haven't found any sollution. The last option is to format and reinstall Lion but I hope there is a faster/better solution than that.
I have a 2011 15-inch MBP with the up-to-date Mac OS X Lion.Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It won’t solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
Third-party system modifications are a common cause of usability problems. By a “system modification,” I mean software that affects the operation of other software -- potentially for the worse. The following procedure will help identify which such modifications you've installed. Don’t be alarmed by the complexity of these instructions -- they’re easy to carry out and won’t change anything on your Mac.
These steps are to be taken while booted in “normal” mode, not in safe mode. If you’re now running in safe mode, reboot as usual before continuing.
Below are four lines of text in monospaced type, which are UNIX shell commands. They’re harmless, but they must be entered exactly as given in order to work. If you have doubts about the safety of running these commands, search this site for other discussions in which they’ve been used without any report of ill effects.
Some of the commands will line-wrap in your browser, but each one is really just a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, and you can then either copy or drag it. The headings “Step 1” and so on are not part of the commands.
Note: If you have more than one user account, Step 2 must be taken as an administrator. Ordinarily that would be the user created automatically when you booted the system for the first time. The other steps should be taken as the user who has the problem, if different. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this paragraph doesn’t apply.
To begin, launch the Terminal application; e.g., by entering the first few letters of its name in a Spotlight search. A text window will open with a line already in it, ending either in a dollar sign (“$”) or a percent sign (“%”). If you get the percent sign, enter “sh” and press return. You should then get a new line ending in a dollar sign.
Step 1
Copy or drag -- do not type -- the line below into the Terminal window, then press return:
kextstat -kl | awk ' !/com\.apple/ { print $6 $7 } '
Post the lines of output (if any) that appear below what you just entered (the text, please, not a screenshot.)
Step 2
Repeat with this line:
sudo launchctl list | sed 1d | awk ' !/0x|apple|com\.vix|edu\.|org\./ { print $3 } '
This time, you'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning not to screw up. You don't need to post the warning.
Step 3
launchctl list | sed 1d | awk ' !/0x|apple|edu\.|org\./ { print $3 } '
Step 4
ls -1A {,/}Library/{Ad,Compon,Ex,Fram,In,La,Mail/Bu,P*P,Priv,Qu,Scripti,Servi,Sta}* 2> /dev/null
Important: If you synchronize with a MobileMe account, your me.com email address may appear in the output of the above command. If so, change it to something like “[email protected]” before posting.
Remember, steps 1-4 are all drag-and-drop or copy-and-paste, whichever you prefer -- no typing, except your password.
You can then quit Terminal. -
Illustrator CC 64 bit crashes after a few seconds of being open (Win 8.1 64bit)
After following all related issues of others online, nothing has worked to solved this mystery.
Ai CC 64bit crashes after a few seconds of being open. I am running Win 8.1 64bit. All other Adobe CC apps work. I have installed and re-installed countless times, no help.
I am 100% convinced that Illustrator CC is 100% incompatible with Windows 8.1. Even the Microsoft compatibility page has 100% votes for incompatible yet it states it is compatible.
Adobe, if you care about paying customers, please fix this. I am coming from OS X and everything was flawless.DustinWilliam,
When something is wrong and you uninstall and reinstall, you should always run the Cleaner Tool inbetween to remove what may be lingering, although I doubt whether it will help in this case.

Just updated my iPhone 5 (16g) to iOS7 and now I cannot launch the music app anymore.
It opens and then just crashes after a few seconds of white screen.
Also If I go to Settings General About the phone crashes all the time after just a few seconds. :-(
AndreasThe same for me. iPhone 4S, itunes match and upgrade to ios7 by air.
So what we have:
1) Music app does not launch (white screen then close)
2) About screen crashes (I guess once it tries to calculate music space)
3) Spotlight does not show any results (no care what I set to search in in the preferences)
4) iTunes Match slider can not be set to Off. However, it is possible to logout from AppleID, then it off. But this does not change the situaton at all
5) Podcast app does not launch
I tried to reboot, to sign in with another Apple ID, to turn off itunes Match, to reset all preferences. Nothing helps.
Things to try:
- reset all preferences and content
- reinstall ios7 with itunes from scratch
- switch to windows phone -
Premiere Pro & After Effects close after a few seconds after the startup?
Hi,
I bought Creative Cloud yesterday and everything installed just fine. I haven't tried all Apps yet, but so far Premiere Pro and After Effects close after a few seconds after the startup. There is no dialogue or error window of any kind, the programs just shut down automatically.
The weird thing is that I had the trial before, but also uninstalled it, but then the apps worked just fine.
I searched the forum but couldn't find anyone with the exact same issue. I hope someone can help me out.
