Hi, This happened to me this morning. My MacBook just started pinging every few seconds. Pressing VO+F1 twice showed that there was a system dialog about sending a crash report to Apple. Sending the report resolved the issue. Just FYI, Brett > On Nov 20, 2020, at 2:33 PM, joseph hodge wrote: >

If you do vo f1 twice do you have a system notification? Mine was doing this and I realized it was trying to get me to confirm something. Once I did f1 twice told it whatever it is gone. > On Nov 20, 2020, at 4:22 PM, 'Janina Sajka' via MacVisionaries > wrote: > > Hi, > > I can understand

Hi, I don't see the link. Could you maybe paste it into the body of the message? Alternative, you might want to search running processes for an instance of ping and kill the process id. The following terminal command may help: sudo killall ping Best, Janina Yuma Decaux writes: > Hi All, >

Hi All, I've recorded myself on the system to demonstrate this repeating ping sound that occurs without any input from me, and its starting to drive me absolutely bonkers. it's very disrupting and annoying, and I would really like to know what is going on, and how to turn this down. Attached
