Wireless broken after 3.14 kernel update

After upgrading to 3.14 kernel today, I found out that the Linux-headers package was missing, causing the system to boot to the old kernel and hang up. So I installed the headers to fix the problem. The system now boots but I have no wireless.
My card is a Ralink RT3290 which was working fine in 3.13. The drivers and firmware are loaded correctly.
While booting I can see some error related to the rt2800pci modules which refers to a "RX/TX busy" error and that is probably what is causing the issue. I use NetworkManager as the connection management service.

Perhaps you can use journalctl -b to see more details about the errors you are getting.

MacBook Pro with Retina 13" Late 2013 thunderbolt port broken after 10.9.4 update

One of Thunderbolt Port (near USB port) was broken after 10.9.4 update.
I usually use mini Display Port to Display Port cable to connect my external screen, it works fine before 10.9.4 update. After 10.9.4 update, I tried to connect the external screen with the same cable, and the main screen of my MacBook Pro with Retina Display twinkling once so I'm sure the external screen was identified, but no video signal output.
I went to local Apple Premium Reseller (there is no Apple Store in Taiwan) and the they told me all of Thunderbolt Port was fine, they test with their own 10.9.2 copy and it seems ok. After that, I tried to re-install 10.9.4, downloading directly from Apple, the system re-install progress was complete but the Thunderbolt Port issue still there.
I connect to the broken Thunderbolt Port with Thunderbolt to Ethernet adapter, and it works fine, so I believe the only problem is that there is no video signal output from the Thunderbolt Port (near USB port one).
What should I do now?
Model: MacBook Pro with Retina 13" Late 2013

I can confirm that problem, too: Im' working with a Dell U2713HM display, connected via display port. Since 10.9.4 Update i'm experiencing random black screens and/or display going to energy saving mode. Today i've had this issue twice: Display going black and after disconnecting the macbook von all cables screen of the macbook remaining black. Holding Power Button for about 10 s restarts the macbook. After 5 minutes the same problem appeared again.

Problems with Wireless connection AFTER 10.4.2 update

I have read several topics on wireless problems AFTER the 10.4.2 update and wondering if anyone (or Apple) has found a fix to this problem. I cant get to my network or the internet via airport. I have tried zapping the pram, resetting the permissions, rebooting, checking for more update on a wired connection, reinstalling both 10.4.2 combo and 4.2 update and still nothing. This happened RIGHT after the reboot upon completion of the update. Im stuck and wondering if anyone has a solution or has any one SUCCESSFULLY contacted Apple and have they got a solution to fix the problem??

I'm having the same problems with accessing my airport base station (first generation snow at 4.0.9) after loading the airport admin 4.2 patch. I loaded the 4.2 patch on my g5 and G4 running 10.3.9. The response/across of the wifi connection is very poor. I can't use chicken of the VNC to manage the G4 from the G5 anymore at all due to the slow response and accessing the internet via either the G4 or the G5 is like a dial up connection. The broadband speed test results are 192mb to 274mb up and similar down.
I have a 12"powerbook (DVI 1gig version) with 10.3.9 that I have not loaded the 4.2 patch on and I am not having any issues with wifi access to the base station or the internet. broadband logs in right at 2.8mb via DSL. I also have a Dell laptop that I access the internet through the airport base station and I have no issues with speed and the same 2.8mb broadband speed test results.
Conclusion something in the airport 4.2 patch has changed the airport cards ability to see the base station.
With all that said, my question is - How do I back out of the 4.2 airport admin patch provided by apple or how do I resolve the slow response times between the airport cards in the G4 and G5 and the base station?
Any help?

Any plans to fix wireless networking after the 40S51U Firmware Update 2.2.5 broke it?

After the 40S51U Firmware Update 2.2.5 wireless passwords must be re-entered every time the device is powered on. It's been almost 4 months since the untested patch was released – is a fix coming?

You're the only person I can remember having that issue. You should call customer support.

DVD export broken after 10.0.1 update

A project which I have previously exported to DVD in Final Cut Pro 10.0 can no longer be exported after 10.0.1 update.
The symptom is that, athough it plays back fine in the Viewer, after doing Share -> DVD, the burned DVD ends up with these choppy sections where it loops the same 0.3 seconds or so over and over. This occurs after about 4 minutes of playback (it is an 8 minute video).
I've burned multiple DVDs, and deleted the projects render files and re-rendered, and tried multiple DVD players, all to no avail.
This is my first attempt to burn a DVD since applying the update from App Store, which is why I surmise the update may be involved.
Visually it looks a lot like a disc with a bad scratch where it gets in a loop. But as far as I can tell, Final Cut Pro is actually burning the DVD fine, and it is actually writing the same 0.3 second of video over and over. That is, if I put it into a DVD player, I can fast forward from 03:00 to 07:00, and it is still looping the same snippet of video.
Has anybody seen this problem? Any advice for how to fix. Thanks.

This may or may not be related, but its worth mentioning as it relates to what may be a change in the update. I did a test export "Share" > "DVD..." on a project. It worked very well. DVD played just fine on a few devices.
Same project after the update and it fails to share a DVD now. It opens the Share Monitor app and after a few seconds FCPX shows me this:
First, lets take a moment to appreciate the inherent humor in FCPX telling me I've failed. Funny. Moving on...
Restarted FCPX - no change.
Deleted "Shared Items" folder, in my FCP Project folder - no change.
Restarted Lion - no change.
Realization iLife in Lion no longer comes with iDVD - not happy.
Any advice?

Remote desktop broken after 10.9.3 update

After the 10.9.3 update, remote desktop is completely broken...
The ard status monitor display : Apple Remote Desktop is disabled. I try a clean install (app + system library coreservice remote management + user library pref ans aap support deleted.
After the Remote Desktop 3.7.2 installed from the Apple Store when i try to launch the application i get this message : The remote desktop client does not mach the administrator software version. Check for update.
And this is the problem : there is no updates available !!!!
I have try to install some 3.7.1 client from some dmg, but all false : ARD agent validate multiple error ( on log) error 6405, fatal error 5, error 100, error 6404, broken pipe, fatal error 0
Now i am back to the clean uninstall and with the new Remote Desktop 3.7.2 with the desktop client not matching and not running...and without any update available.
thanks for help !

Nice idea and helping really !!!!
On safe mode, i could install an old remote desktop client (3.6.x) - and the client works fine as client.
Next i get the last Remote Desktop Admin from the Apple Store and it run also always in safe mode. No error, but all my setting were lost. With the Remote Desktop Admin running i created a new client installer and quit the Admin app for updating the client to the last release (3.7.1). I test all in safe mode (running as admin and as client) and finally reboot the computer to quit the safe mode.. and finally all was running again.
I don't know why during the 10.9.3 update Remote Desktop was corrupted...
Now i need to put back my remote client, but this not really a problem.
Thank a lot th Deadzak for his genius intuition.

Unable to connect to wireless network after 10.4.8 update

Hi Guys,
I use Macbook which I have just updated to 10.4.8. After doing the update I can no longer connect to my wireless network. On 1st boot Airport asked to update the keychain. I said yes.
Selecting my network, and entering the WPA key results in "Password for this network is incorrect" which is a load of rubbish as I can connect a PC Laptop to it perfectly. I have restarted the router, put in the key in caps and lower case, and still always the same error message.
Has anybody else experienced this? If so, does anyone know how to fix it?
Thanks,
Paul.

I just brought home a new Macbook with the 10.4.8
system software. I had to reconfigure my wireless
router to "open system" - it still required the WEP
key code, but when it was configured as an open
system instead of an automatic system it allowed the
Mac to connect.
My other computers still work fine with the new
router configuration.
Macbook Mac OS X
(10.0.x)
10.4.8 came with your new macbook? or did you update?
the only reason i ask is this was a question from a day or two ago, people were wondering if it were abnormal that new macbooks were still shipping with 10.4.6 even though 10.4.7 was out, and some predicted that once it went to 10.4.8 the shipping software would be updated to the new update

Wireless Connection after 10.4.8 Update

I want to try and update again to 10.4.8. Has the wireless connection issue been resolved yet? The problem I was having before was when my mac went into sleep mode or I would reboot the wireless connection would be dropped. I tried just about everything I found on this board, but nothing worked. I had to archive and restore my mac back to 10.4.4. Is it safe to update, if not is there a fix for after I update?
Any help would be great!.

If I had an IntelMac I'd wait, or certainly not go past 10.4.7, and at that I'd surely use the bigger Combo Updates, not any of the Deltas.
Yet if I did try 10.4.8... it'd be installed on a seperate FW drive for testing... without messing with the working install.
All that being said... I still am at 10.3.9 or less on all my important work machines... only have Tiger on 2 machines to help sort out/test all the 10.4 problems!

WEP encryption failure on D-Link 614+ wireless router after 1.1.1 update

My iPhone was connecting to the Internet via WiFi with a D-Link 614+ wireless router, and with 128-bit WEP encryption on, before I updated the iPhone to 1.1.1. Since that update, connectivity through the D-Link router requires that WEP be disabled. All other features seem to be compatible, including a static IP address and a static DNS address. No amount of network resetting and WiFi network forgetting helps. Apple Technical Support said that 128-bit WEP has been found mostly compatible, but it tends to be incompatible when the router's firmware has not been recently updated. This router's latest firmware is from 2005 (though the manufacturer dates it 2006), and the manufacturer has issued an end-of-life notice on it. My conclusion is that the router is obsolete if an iPhone is to be used with it. I have ordered an Apple Airport Extreme Base Station, so if anything goes wrong there's no doubt about which company is responsible. Meanwhile, I have turned off router encryption and turned on MAC filtering so only our own devices can use the router. Has anybody found that WEP encryption on this router actually works on the iPhone post-1.1.1?

Shortly after posting, it occurred to me to search for "614". I found some other people's solutions for this router that involved disabling 4x mode and enabling the long preamble in the D-LINK UI (Advanced > Performance):
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=3897747?
Doing this caused my packet loss issue to go away, but now my connection is extremely sluggish and browsing is even slower than before.
I'll keep tweaking settings to see if I can improve things.

Quicktime X broken after security and Safari updates.

Ran software update yesterday and updated Safari to 5.1.1 and got the latest security update. Now Quicktime X is broken. Still have the app but the icon is missing and it won't start. My old QT 7 still seems to work fine. Tried repairing permissions and restarting several times. Any other ideas? Wish they would just allow us to download and install QT X...

Sorry to say but this did not work for me. I was able to find an installation of QTP 7.6.4 (which still has the Quicktime Preferences menu option). However, I was not able to install the older version of QTP even after trashing QTP app, and its associated preference files and rebooting my MacBook Pro. The installation program displayed a message that a new version of Quicktime was detected and would not allow me to continue the installation of the previous version. I then found a program called Pacifist http://www.charlessoft.com/ that allowed me to do the installation.
My reference movies are now behaving as they should. Unquestionably there is a problem with Quicktime Player 7.6.6 which Apple really should address right away.
BTW, after doing this, my Pro key seems to be intact. I just purchase Final Cut Studio upgrade. I guess I leave QT 7.6.4 and ignore software updates fopr Quicktime until I see 7.6.8.
Unfortunately, I'll have a difficult time explaining this to my clients. In effect, this screw up by Apple makes it inadvisable for me to provide reference movies with alternates for my clients.

Open Directory Broken After 10.8.4 Update

Running Mountain Lion Server.app under Mac OS X Server 10.8.4 on a Mac Mini Server.
After updating, Server.app can't read any of its settings.
I can't view logs or certificates.
I can't view users or groups.
I can't enter Time Machine Backup.
The Console.app works, but I don't know where to start looking. When I choose "All Messages" I see something like:
5:59:02 PM kernel: en1 duplicate IP address 173.13.188.121 sent from address a8:20:66:29:49:9d
repeated over and over.
Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.

Yikes! Is Server.app really that fragile? Very disappointing.
I backup to a Time Capsule using Time Machine managed by ... Server! Time Machine can't find my backup disk.
Installed the combo update. Still can't start Open Directory.
Still getting "duplicate IP address" error in the Console.app, as well as "Unable to talk to lsboxd" and this:
mdworker: __SCPreferencesAccess CDPropertyListCreatedWithData(): The data couldn't be read because it has been corrupted.
and
ScreensharingAgent: [CL_INVALID_DEVICE] : Open CL Error : Railed to create context! (null)
This is extremely frustrating. It shouldn't be this difficult or challenging to manage 3 client computers and a dozen users with access to a small FTP site.
Any other suggestions?
Oh, and thanks for your reply.

Wireless Issues after 10.4.7 update

Hi all,
My wireless connection was solid since the day I bought my Macbook Pro. I had profiles connecting to my wireless router at home and my work wireless points at work. When I recently updated my system to 10.4.7, I have had some issues with my wireless.
Sometimes when I start my mac up, login, etc, the wireless icon in the system tray will flicker, and I have no connection to my wireless. If I disable and enable the Airport device, sometimes it just starts working. Sometimes I have to reboot the system to make it work. If the icon does not flicker, it works fine, when it gets into that state where it doesn't work, the icon flickers.
Anyone else having these issues?
Macbook Pro 15" 1.83GHz Mac OS X (10.4.7) 1Gb RAM

I also had some dropped connections over my wireless
router at home (Linksys router) after the 10.4.7
install. I have a MBP 15" W8617xxxx. Connection was
good for a few minutes at a time. Then I had to
restart AirPort.
For me, I had installed some other apps about the
same time as 10.4.7, so I uninstalled them, repaired
permissions, installed the Combo 10.4.7 and now
everything seems okay.
I don't know if it was the new apps, or the Combo
install, or repair permissions, or ?
Hope that helps. Good luck.

SDDave,
i have been reading a lot of postings regarding the issues with wireless after the 10.4.7 update.
i also have a linksys wireless router and have identical problems with you. i am sure many of us do as well.
you said you managed to install the 10.4.7 combo and everything seems to work properly now? if so, would you be kind enough to give me detail steps on how to install the 10.4.7 combo file
1. do we get the combo 10.4.7 from the apple site?
http://www.apple.com/downloads/macosx/apple/macosxupdate1047comboppc.html
2. what steps do we need to install this file?
please please help us out to provide detail steps to do this. i know some of us here are not as comfortable doing it without some help.
i would appreciate if anyone else would help out beside sddave.
thank you in advance. i can't wait to install this combo update to resolve this connection issue.

Automatic sleep broken after 10.5.7 update

Hello,
Since I updated my 10.5.6 system to 10.5.7, the automatic sleep function doesn't work anymore. Screen goes black but harddisk keeps running (little light doesn't pulse).
I tried to repair permissions, reset SMC like described elsewhere in the forum, without any success.
Finally, I reinstalled 10.5 using the "Archive and install" option. Then applied the 10.5.6 combo update. And automatic sleep worked again.
After a few days, with the coming of Safari 4.0 final version (which only work with 10.5.7...), I decided to give it a try and applied the 10.5.7 combo update.
And guess what...
Automatic sleep is broken again...
If anybody has a solution, I would be happy to read it.
Thanks in advance

Some clues point to my external LaCie DVD±RW DL...
As long as it is connected to my MacBook, automatic sleep doesn't work. A green light is flashing at regular intervals, which indicate some sort of activity that could prevent the MacBook to sleep automatically.
To confirm this, I disconnected the external burner and... automatic sleep was working again. I checked the availables updates on LaCie website, but it seems that my burner's firmware is up to date.
I've sent a support request to LaCie, hoping they could do something about it.

Thinkvantage broken after applying all the updates

I had not run the Thinkvantage updates in a while (ok, ever) and was having problems with my T400 just shutting off without any warning and thought that the driver updates might help. However, after running all of the updates, none of the Thinkvantage tools seem to work. No fingerprint scanner, no wireless/network management, no presentation manager, etc. I don't even know where to start troubleshooting this. Any suggestions? Thanks!

How strange. maybe try downloaded the Thinkvantage Update utility and setting it up again? http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/TVSU-UPDATE.html
Have you looked in event manager to search for any potential errors? It'll be in control pannel under administrative tools.
I'm afraid I don't know much about Thinkvantage, my usual thing when it all crashes is to rebuild the macine and try again, but obviously thats alot of effort for most people, and there's no guarantee it'll work for you.
