Can no longer access wifi

I share wifi with a couple of other households in my building; the base is in another apartment.
A bit over a week ago, my laptop (MacBook Pro running latest update to Lion) stopped being able to connect: sometimes the alert says there's no IP address; other times it shows an IP address but says I cannot connect (wul, duh!).
Took my laptop to the Genius Bar; same issue. The Genius created a New Location, problem solved! That is, until I returned home—same errors, no connection. So I created a new New Location, but no good.
When I run diagnostics, it throws me in a loop—asks me to select the access type, and then enter the account info; then asks me again to select the access type, then enter the account info, etc…
Yes, I've restarted my laptop.
Yes, my neighbor rebooted the wi-fi system, and swears he did not make any changes.
Yes, I get this same error when I try to access other wi-fi systems.
Yes, it's just my laptop—everybody else is accessing the system fine, incl. myself, via my phone.
The only change I made was updating the system, the last time there was a dot upgrade. Now it's not working.
If I go back to the Genius Bar, I fear they'll fix it again and then I'll go home and it won't work, again…
Any suggestions?
Thanks.

I'm getting the same message after installing an Airport Extreme card in a 2008 MacPro. I've tried everything and I cannot get either of my iOS5 devices (iPhone 4 and iPad) or my wife's iPhone (that we have not upgraded to 5) to connect to my WIFI network. They see the network but I don't even get the password screen. Very frustrating. (OS 10.5.8)

  • I can no longer access the web on my IPod Touch through my home wifi network.

    I have an I Pod Touch with operating system 4.2.1.  It has worked fine the past year plus.  Suddenly, I can no longer access webpages on it.  When  try to load a website, looks like it is trying to open the page, but it never fully loads and times out. My I Pod indicates that it recognizes my wifi network and I have tried resetting both my I Pod and my router.  Weirder yet, I can access my Yahoo email on my I Pod and if there is a website link embedded in an email message, i can open it and access the page that way.  Any link on the web page opened through my email however does not work.  My home computer, which is on the same wifi network, is working fine.  The only thing that did occur recently was a power outage. 
    Please help - this is very frustrating.

    LTE indicates cellular. Tap Settings > Cellular then switch Cellular Data ON.
    If your Wi-Fi is working, then you should be able to access the internet.
    Reset the device:
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings
    If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings
    You will have to re enter your Wi-Fi password.

  • I was using my wifi last night when I got an error message stating my ip address had been taken over.  Then safari stopped working and i can no longer access the internet. I looked at my ip address and it states 000.000.000....can someone please help?

    Sounds like a bogus pop up. In any case power down your Mac, your modem, your router. Then power back up in 1 minute sequence; modem, router, Mac.

  • I installed 7.1.2 update for my iphone5 and I have problems.   I can no longer access the internet on my phone.  My wifi is fine, and I've noticed that there is no longer any indication of "LTE" on my phone.

    Against my better judgement, I installed update 7.1.2 on my iphone5, and can no longer access the intenet.  I've dis some searching for a solution, but nothing works.  What has this happened?  And how can I fix it?

  • Time Capsule - can no longer access on MBP Leopard

    For the past 6 or 7 weeks I can no longer access my Time Capsule from my MBP Leopard. However, I do not beleive this is a Time Capsule issue as I am still accessing (and backing up) successfully from a MBP running Snow Leopard. Note, the access and backup were running fine for over a year and suddenly just stopped working. I've done the basics like repair permissions, software update, checked everything. For soem reason, when I try to access, I can see the Time Capsule, I can connect until I get to Data then "mylaptop Sparse Bundle". When I choose that disk image backup - just continues for ever and ever with a dialog box that says "trying to connect" or something like that.
    Any ideas appreciated ...
    thanks

    Has this Mac had any problems since the last successful backup? Such as hardware repairs, especially a new logic board? A full restore?
    Is the +sparse bundle+ currently mounted? If so, eject it and try again.
    If not, or if that doesn't help, try a "full reset" of Time Machine, per #A4 of Troubleshooting.
    Interesting to note that the final backup (7 weeks ago) failed - it looked like hourly backups worked and the final one failed ("says in progress" ?)
    Yes, that's the partial, failed backup. Since it's incomplete, it won't appear in the "Star Wars" display, etc. Once Time Machine gets started, it will "recover" it, and convert it into a normal backup, with a new date & Time.
    After that long without a backup, Time Machine will have a lot of work to do (including recovering the partial backup), so connect via Ethernet if at all possible. It will still take a while, but be 2-3 times faster than WIFI.

  • I can no longer access homesharing on my phone since updating to ios6. Is there another step to take?

    I can no longer access home sharing on my phone since updating to ios 6. What else do I need to do?

    I found whats happening at least partialy. My 2 iphones that wouldnt participate in shared library and ipad2 had false logins in music setting.
    I tried log out under music, and log in, and it said it can't log in.
    same time, funny thing happened, app store is also unreachable.
    I only restored in itunes my ipad2 for testing (it was suggested by apple via apple support chatline) and it worked, I can connect to shared lib only with ipad.
    Alas, it partialy downloaded my library???? and it had errors in it.
    I restarted router, itunes server, ipad (resetting network settings and loosing all my 20 or so connections I have for different places!) and ipad works.
    My wife's iphone managed to log on into music settings to home sharing, but it only downloaded partialy itunes library. I am not restoring it since Id loose a lot more!
    My own iphone4 isn't managing to connect into home sharing.
    I have tried to solve this for a week.
    New firmware of asus RT N66U gorgeously capable router and all the things I did came to nothing.
    I think it's n iOS wifi communications problem, and only apple can solve it.
    no idea how to complain to them....
    Needless to say, my iphone and ipad manage to connect everywhere else.
    It looks like the network they use the most, are most affected by this!

  • After installing Mountain Lion two drives on my network cannot be accessed.  I am using Parallels to utilize QuickBooks ERP.  The programs and data are on the drives that I can no longer access.  Suggestions?

    After installing Mountain Lion on my Mac Book Pro, I can no longer access two shared drives.  Diagostics cannot solve the problem.  I am using Parallels to run Qucikbooks ERP on these shared drives.  How do I get my Mac to see these drives and access them?

    Don't know what to tell you, but I also have an AEBS-Gen5 with a MBP Retina and Mac Mini using WiFi. Both are running Mountain Lion and I don't have any WiFi connection issues. Two iPhones in the household use WiFi with no issues along with a printer and 2 Windows 7 laptops.
    First thing I would try is to shutdown all computers connected to the AEBS. Then power off the AEBS and finally the cable/DSL modem. Then reverse the order and power on the cable modem, wait for all the lights to be solid, power on the AEBS, wait for the light to show solid green; then power up a computer that uses WiFi.
    If the above doesn't work, you might try repairing permissions via Disk Utility. If that doesn't help maybe a PRAM reset would work.

  • Color Nook can no longer access library . . How can I resolve this problem?

    I have a Color Nook. Recently it was updated automatically. Since the update I can no longer enjoy reading the library books I once could. I used  Overdrive and Adobe Digital Editions to access my county library in the past but can no longer access it.. I get an error message of E_AUTH_BAD_DEVICE_KEY. Apparently I have lost authorization to the AdobeID server.
    How do I resolve this problem?  

    Well, you could start by asking in the Digital Editions forum,

    Why would there be a fix?  YOU are having the problem.  I'm not, no one I know is having the problem.  No fix is needed.
    Basic troubleshooting steps clearly outlined in the User Guide are restart, reset, restore from backup, restore as new.  Have you been through any, if not all of these troubleshooting steps yet?

  • HT1918 How can I change my rescue email. I am trying to change my email for my Apple account because I can no longer access the email on the account. My only email I use is my rescue email and it will not allow me to change my Apple ID email to my rescue

    How can I change my rescue email or get rid of it? I need to change my email under my apple ID to the email that is my rescue email. It won't allow me to have the same email. I only have one email address and can no longer access the email address under my apple ID

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    Once you have created a rescue address, you cannot delete it, nor can you change it to the same address as used by your ID. There are numerous providers you can get additional email addresses from, such as Hotmail, Yahoo, Google etc etc.

  • Apple changed my Apple ID to the email address associated with my iTunes account. I now can no longer access my account because the old user name is no longer valid and has no password. I have been on the phone with tech support for hours trying to fix.

I have been on the phone with tech support for hours trying to fix this. I can not update any of the apps associated with that user name.

    Is this itunes on the iPad or on my computer? Thank you for the reply.

  • Following the upgrade to 34.0.5, I can no longer access web pages of our SAN, airco, vSphere Web Clients, etc. How can I correct this?

    Following upgrade to 34.05, can no longer access web pages of the SAN management interface, the airco system, the vSphere Web Client, etc. All still work in Chrome.
    The airco system gives an error:
    Firefox cannot guarantee the safety of your data on 10.32.16.50 because it uses SSLv3, a broken security protocol.
    Advanced info: ssl_error_no_cypher_overlap
    The SAN management interface and vSphere Web Clients display an empty page. Not sure whether these also have problems due to SSLv3.
    I understand you wanting to be cautious, but I seriously doubt I need to face an attack from our SAN. Please, at least give us an option to connect regardless.

    hello, ssl 3.0 is disabled in firefox versions 34 & upwards by default - if you want to re-enable it you can do that like this which will make you vulnerable to the recently published poodle attack though:
    enter '''about:config''' into the firefox address bar (confirm the info message in case it shows up) & search for the preference named '''security.tls.version.min'''. double-click it, change its value to '''0''' and restart the browser.

  • Can no longer access disks on network, all of a sudden happend

    I have been at this for day’ now and have no results! Can no longer access disks on network.
    Connecting to my server (it has one FW HD connected that is in 3 artitions). If I do it over a new window and click on the computer in the network I do see all the disks that it offers for sharing. Clicking one (or any for that matter) I get:
    This operation can not be completed because original item for “name of disk” cannot be found.
    If I try to mount over cmd K I again see all disks but can not mount any. I get:
    A volume failed to mount.
    The volume “name of disk” could not be mounted.
    Trying to connect to the server from other machine gives same result. However I can connect between the tow other machines without a problem.
    I have another machine in my network and this one I can connect to as always. My suspicion is thus that it is the host I can not connect to where the problem is.
    And yes I did repair permissions, and ran Applejack.
    This has happened al of a sudden as all was well a few days ago. Any insights?

    Hi orangekay
    not sure where you got the idea that I have
    bizarre encrypted filesystem plugins and scripts you have manipulating them all the time
    because I do not have any such running, just normal Applescripts that do tasks that could be done by hand.

  • When I began using Iphone 4, my email address was attached to our provider which was Everest (Surewest).  My Iphone still has that email address but I can no longer access that email account and I now cannot unlock my Iphone.  Does anyone know how ?

    When I purchased my I-phone 4 several years ago, our email service provider was Everest.  We no longer use Everest and I can no longer access that email address, but my I-phone is still attached to that email address, so I can not unlock this I-phone.  I have purchased a new I-phone and the same email address transferred to it when the information was transferred from my old phone to my new one.  In order to trade my old phone in for the new one, I must be able to unlock the old phone, which I have been unable to do since the old email address is not available to me.  Please help.

    Having the email address is not necessary. It is just the username for the device. All you need is that Apple ID and password. Now, if you forgotten the password, then you have more work to do. Since that email is no longer active, you would need to send the reset to your rescue email, if you remember that. Or you will need to contact Apple Security for help.
