Wifi connection intermittently randomly stops and later reconnects randomly

When I am at work, my wifi connection will randomly disconnect. Nothing I do seems to make it reconnect. The problem is not the router or the internet service. It is my macbook pro. At some random time later, hours or days later, it will just reconnect on its own. What can I do about this problem? Help. This is wrecking my business. I can't work when my computer is down.

My iPhone 4S started doing this the day before yesterday. I upgraded to 6.0.1 the day it came out. I had no issues until a couple days ago. Now I have to reset my phone three times a day and it still won't connect to the Wi-Fi sometimes. My wife's iPhone 4S does the same thing too and started the day after mine did. It works for a little while if I unplug and plug back in the router, but I don't buy this as being the overall issue as I never had an issue with this before upgrading to the newest iOS version. I really don't buy it because every other computer and device on our network every time to the Wi-Fi network. I'm just waiting for someone to come out with something better. Unfortunately everything out there's a POS. Just like voting for president what's the lesser of two evils, a really crappy android or just a somewhat crappy iPhone. This goes for home computers also, I think Apple is just getting worse and worse all the time but just not quite as bad as windows. Stupid tech crap.

OS X 10.10.2 Your connection failed because the communication device is unavailable. Make sure it's connected to your computerunication device is unavailable. Make sure it's connected to your computer and try reconnecting ad try reconnecting

There is precious little information concerning this warning dialog. If I am disconnected from any network; wifi, Bluetooth, Thunderbolt Ethernet, doesn't matter, I get this error in a pop-up dialog. "Your connection failed because the communication device is unavailable. Make sure it's connected to your computer and try reconnecting" Creating a new Location under System Preferences / Network does not solve the problem. 1. What is asking to be connected? 2. How do I stop this? Running Yosemite 10.10.2 on a MBP 13"

Send Apple feedback. They won't answer, but at least will know there is a problem. If enough people send feedback, it may get the problem solved sooner.

AE CS5 (10.0.1.19) Ram Preview - Audio stops and continue playing randomly

I already reported this issue to Adobe as a BUG but I want to ask here if somebody else have this problem or can confirm it.
Audio breaks/stops and continue playing randomly when 'Ram Previewing'
It happens mostly when the RAM is fully filled up with image cache files! When the Ram is not filled up totally with image cache files it happens rarely!
Steps to reproduce BUG / issue:
1. create a new composition with a length of for example 5 minutes.
2. create a new solid with size of 50x50 pixel and animate the position of the solid for a very long time so when ram previewing the whole ram/memory gets filled up with different image cache data (this is very important!). Alternatively you could use a long video file to fill up the RAM completely.
3. import a wave file .wav 16bit 48khz uncompressed which is very long for example 5 minutes.
4. insert the wave file in the earlier created composition which contain the animated solid or video file.
5. Set the work area bar (preview range) for the whole composition.
'Ram Preview' the composition until the whole RAM/memory is filled up with image data.
AE has to stop rendering because there is no more space available in RAM.
make sure 'from current time' checkbox is off.
6. listen to the audio which stops playing randomly for about 1-2 seconds and comes back and continues playing (***BUG***)
7. Now set the right handle of the composition work area bar (preview range) to less then the maximum RAM size
(less then the green cache indicator on the right side)
8. "Purge image caches" or "Purge All"
9. Ram preview the now smaller work area
10. listen to the audio. The audio breaks are gone! (***Workaround***)
Additional information:
I have the latest After Effects CS5 update installed (10.0.1.19)
This behavior is tested with different audio drivers inside After Effects CS5 (After Effects WDM Sound, Generic Low Latency ASIO Driver, ASIO DirectX Full Duplex Driver)
I also tried different Sample Sizes Buffers (alternatively to the default 2048 samples) but without success.
Reducing the amount of RAM which After Effects can access didn't solve the problem!
System:
Win7 64bit all latest Updates, 8GB RAM, CPU: intel Core 2 Extreme QX9300, nVidia Quadro FX 2700M, IDT High Definition Audio Driver v6.10.0.6227
There is no driver problem on my system because After Effects CS3 & CS4, Premiere & Soundbooth CS3 CS4 CS5 have no audio problems!
I have lots of other professional audio software like Steinberg Cubase 5.... on the same system and they all work fine.
I also turned off AVG Anitivirus and Windows firewall for testing without success.
AdobeQT32Server.exe, dynamiclinkmanager.exe, PProHeadless.exe, afterfx.exe do not get blocked by firewall they have full permission.
The CS5 Production Premium installation went fine and without errors and antivirus protection was turned off for the installation.
Any help would be nice!

Yep, I agree with craulmedia....
It's 1 month ago after my initial post and no valuable feedback from Adobe although I filled out the bug report in addition to this post and provide my email for further information.
The only reason for upgrading from CS4 -> CS5 production suite was the use of all my 8GB RAM in AE and now AE can use it but when it's using it the audio have issues.
CS5 is on the market for nearly a year and still have such essential issues... And my fear rises there will be no valuable update fixing these issues but instead Adobe forces me to upgrade later this year to CS6 in hope something change...
I have had support request for different Adobe products in the past including telephone support, web support via Adobe ID... none with success the web support answered my request 3 weeks later with the message they will look into it... time went by and in the end the result was "Yes we know it's a known bug" the bug did not get fixed for that CS version. it even exists in the next major CS release! (talking about EncoreDVD here). Once the web support answered weeks later when I was in holidays and after some days I was not able to respond they closed my case. I reopened the case but never got an answer! Telephone support is nearly waste of time because in 95% of all cases it does not help to reinstall the whole operating system and talking to people who know less about computers in general or Adobe products then my mom - it's a waste of time.
I don't want to blame here anybody for things happend in the past I just want to point out that this time I choose an other support channel (bug report and forum post) but it seems that this support channel is also a waste of time after 1 month with no valueable feedback!
I bumped up this post 2 times and thanks to craulmedia for the third time.
And now here is my fourth time *BUMP*
All I got so far is: "I saw your bug report it's in the queue"
Is it still in the queue? which queue nr. does it have? how long will it take to get any answer? is it reproducible? Is it confirmed as a known bug by Adobe? Is Adobe working on a fix? When will this fix be available? Is the fix provided in form of an update or in the next major release?
OK, I know this is a user to user forum and Adobe people only stop by in their free time and there is no guarantee for any real support.
But it started out so good in the first time...
Last 2 things I want to add here:
1. Why should I provide my email in the bug report? Sure so Adobe can get back to me for further information... but wouldn't it be nice if Adobe would be so kind to give some status report to that given email as a small present for the enthusiastic beta testers ?
2. please Adobe take a look at www.uservoice.com already Autodesk started to move there with 3ds Max.

I have a 1st gen iPhone that I just updated the software to 2.0.2
Now whenever I press the mail icon it goes to the mail app for about 4 seconds, does nothing, no loading of folders, old messages, nothing.
Then it reverts back to the home screen. Tried restarting, haven't tried restoring, thought I'd look here first.

Sound randomly stops and starts

Hello,
Over 2 days, as I watch Netflix, or listen to music on other apps, my sound randomly stops and starts. I have no control of it. I do not have to touch my ipod when this happens, it does this on its own. On for 20 min, off for 5 min, on for 5, off for 2, on for 1 min, off for 15 min. It ossolates randomly through time.
I hard reboot, but this works or does not work (for a while). Any ideas?

After upgrading, videos randomly stop and restart.

Since upgrading to iTunes 10 purchased videos of TV shows randomly stop and restart. I've had these videos for years and never had a problem, but now every time I watch an episode it sill get around 5 minutes in and spontaneously start the episode over. Anyone else having these problems?

Hi Fabrizio,
why do you want to reboot your server every sunday?????
If you reboot your SAP this often, you'll have performance problems every Monday. All
of your SAP internal Buffers must be filled again after an reboot. If your DB is on the
same Host, also your DB Buffer is empty.
If this is an productive System, i highly recommend you that you not reboot your SAP System this often....
(By side, thats the difference between an *nix and an Windows System.).
What is the reason for doing that?
confused

I recently bought an ablum from iTunes, but the songs are randomly stopping and skipping about 45 seconds into the song. What is the problem?

Assuming you are in a region where you are allowed to redownload your past purchases, delete the current copies from your iTunes library, go to the iTunes Store home page, click the Purchased link from the Quick Links section in the right-hand column, then select Music and Not on this computer. You should find download links for your tracks there.
If the problem persists, or that facility is not yet available in your region, contact the iTunes Store support staff through the report a problem links in your account history, or via Contact Support.

I cannot retrieve the password for the wifi connection on my imac and so cannot access the internet with my ipad at home. I have a cable modem. Help please!

If you mean that you cannot remember the password for your WiFi network this will work for you - or it should work if you are the administrator on the Mac.
You will need to be logged in as the administrator on your Mac and you must know the password - Open Keychain Access on your Mac in the utilities folder, click on Passwords. Find the Airport Network Password listed on the right. Double click on it. Click on show password in the the window that pops up. Enter your administrator password when prompted and click allow.
If Keychain is locked - you must enter the administrator password there as well to unlock it and access the password.
If you have set the Mac up for Internet Sharing for the iPad to share the Mac's connection, just create a new network On the Mac with Internet sharing and a new password.

I am having trouble keeping wifi connection on my ipad2 and iPhone 5. AT

I Am having trouble keeping my wifi connection on iPhone 5 but especially ipad2. Have had IPad checked out and is fine. At
&T has changed the router 3 times but no help. Will a different router other than AT&T solve this problem and if so, which one.

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 drooping 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.
Some Wi-Fi losses may stem from a problematic interaction between Wi-Fi and cellular data connections. Numerous users have found that turning off Cellular Data in Settings gets their Wi-Fi working again.
You may have many apps open which can possibly cause the slowdown and possibly the loss of wifi. In iOS 4-6 double tap your Home button & at the bottom of the screen you will see the icons of all open apps. Close those you are not using by pressing on an icon until all icons wiggle - then tap the minus sign. For iOS 7 users, there’s an easy way to see which apps are open in order to close them. By double-tapping the home button on your iPhone or iPad, the new multitasking feature in iOS 7 shows full page previews of all your open apps. Simply scroll horizontally to see all your apps, and close the apps with a simple flick towards the top of the screen.

Updated to 5.1 this weekend and lost wifi connectivity on iPhone 4 and Ipad 2

This weekend I updated my iPhone 4 (AT&T) and iPad 2 (Verizon 3G, wifi) to 5.1. Since the update (went flawlessly), I have been unable to connect to wifi networks anywhere. All that I get is the continuously running circle that shows it is trying to connect (but never actually does). I have RESET all Network connections numerous times, did the 'Forget this' connection on everything, etc. They will no longer connect to places that I have always connected to (Home network, CLE Airport, Hilton, Work, etc...). I can connect to all networks fine with my laptop and blackberry, but I just get the constant connection circle with my iPhone and iPad 2. Can anyone offer any other advise?
I have tried:
1. Reboot (Soft)
2. Reboot (Hard (Home and Power button)
3. Forget WiFi connection
4. Reset Network Connections
5. Tried 6 different Wireless (wifi) networks that I have always been able to connect to with no luck.
6. Airplane Mode with wifi on...
7. Turned 3G off...
Desperately awaiting some assistance, I do not have cell connections in our facilities or the hotel, so basically have a useless device right now!

I have the same problem with my Ipad 2 16gb WiFi, I bought it in US on march (I don´t live in US) I returned to my country and updated the IOS to 5.1.
One week ago the wifi signal dissapeared, I get the continuously running circle that shows it is trying to connect too.
I tried to reset it, to restart it, I even erase all content and settings but the problem continues.
As you can imagine an Ipad without internet connection is useless, I have opened a case in Apple Technical Support.
All I want to do is to return it
The question is if It will be possible to replace it or change it by other apple product. I will go to US again next month.

Apple AirPort WiFi connects to MacBook Air and iPad but not iPod Touch

I got my iPod touch 4th Gen in December for xmas and the wifi has worked perfectly fine until about a week ago only on my ipod, it just says 'Unable to Connect' everytime I try and connect but works on my MacBook Air and iPad
It's a WPA2 Personal security
I've tried all the suggestions on the Apple Support page, including resetting the network settings

Does the iPod connect to other networks?
Try the following to rule out a software problem:
- 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.
- Power off and then back on the router
- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
- iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
- iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
- 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.

Music and videos start playing fine but randomly stop and the volume bar disappears

I have an iPhone 4S and run 6.1.3. I start to play music or videos (youtube, ESPN, Netflix, any) and they start to play fine but then randomly stop. The volume bar disappears as well. But then it reappears and I can play it again. When I do so it plays about 30 seconds, sometimes less, and pauses again. I have to repeat the process. Any idea how to fix or what might be causing the problem?

Try a reset:
- hold both the home button and sleep/wake button down at the same time
- the iPhone will turn off(keep holding) but as soon as you see the apple logo appear release both buttons
Also make sure none of the LCI have been set off especially the one in the charging dock of the iPhone. Read the article below for help in checking this:

Spinning a wheel, randomly stops and then takes you to another frame.

I would like to be able to spin a wheel in flash, this wheel has 8 sections to it split up equally, it spins for a random amount of time, 3 - 7 seconds and then stops. the section which lands on the marker is the result and will take you to a specific frame. Also i would like it when it stops to gradually slow down however this is not vital.
this code works for just rotating a wheel but i want to know how to randomly stop it and how to take it to another frame.
onClipEvent (enterFrame){
this.ang=ang+0.01;
_alpha=190*Math.sin(this.ang)+190;
_rotation++;
_xscale=260*Math.sin(this.ang)+1900;
i do not know a lot of coding, so do not use complicated words and if you could post how to do this it would help alot.
thanks

import mx.transitions.Tween;
var obj:Object = {};
start_mc.onRelease=spinF;
function spinF(){
obj.x = wheel_mc._rotation;
var myTween:Tween = new Tween(obj, "x", mx.transitions.easing.Strong.easeInOut,0, Math.random()*360*5, 3+Math.floor(Math.random()*5), true);
myTween.onMotionChanged = function() {
wheel_mc._rotation = obj.x
myTween.onMotionFinished=function(){
yourmovieclip.gotoAndStop("yourframelabelornumber");
p.s. please mark helpful/correct answers.
