Can't get online with 10.4.11?????

I have a 2.16 GHz Intel iMac and updated to 10.4.11 and now I'm unable to get online w/ mail, safari, itunes, etc. I'm wireless with a Belkin N1 router. My good ol' iBook 10.3.9 is working fine, so I know my modem and router are working. I've read other threads on the topic but I'm still having trouble. Any wise MacGuru out there who can walk me through this?

Well, I am able to browse the internet again, and actually i still don't know why exactly i wasn't before. The update seems to have fondled a bit with my network settings, the ip-address that I received from my local network had changed to a 192 number while normally this is a 172 number. After updating the network settings (actually nothing has changed, just some back and forth-changing) it got the right ip again and internet worked. I have actually no clue about the reason why it keeps changing ip's. Strange update this 10.4.11. Now I manually have changed my ip-address, hope it keeps working.

    Hi,
    Also try turning Off Face Time
    Open Face Time
    Go to the Preferences
    Set it to Off.
    Also make sure your router has the Time and Date/Time Zone set as this upsets Face Time which in turn upsets IChat

  • Can't get online with Macbook Pro

    I have a Macbook Pro from 2009 and am having trouble connecting to my home network. The desktop PC has internet connection which is how I posted this message, so I am assuming that my home network or the router are not the problems.
    The same problem occured for me earlier yesterday while I was at University but I just assumed that the network was slow on campus. It wasn't until I got hot and couldn't connect to my own network with my Macbook that I became suspicious.
    Can anyone help me with this issue? I've disconnected the router in my basement and reconnected it to ensure it wasn't my network having problems. I've reset Safari and emptied my Cache to determine if that might help. I'm all out of ideas, if anyone has any troubleshooting tips I would greatly appreciate it.
    My agreement for technical support with Apple expired and I would really like to avoid paying $50+ for a 30 day agreement for one problem. Thanks!

    We'll need some more information.
    When you try to connect what are you seeing?
    When you go to Network Settings (System Preferences > Network) what does it report? Does Wi-Fi say Off or On? (This image is from an iMac connected via wire to the network but I wanted to give you an example of the screen).  Does your Wi-Fi say Connected or off?
    Do you see something similar in Wi-Fi as what I have shown below for Ethernet? Basically does your Wi-Fi in "Status" say "Connected. Wi-Fi is currently active and has the IP address xx.xx.xx.xx."?  If it does not then you are not even seeing the Wi-Fi network.

  • I downloaded software updates and now I can't get online with airport

    Hello!
    This morning, I got asked by my software update on my Mac (which automatically asks me every week) to install some software updates. I stupidly did not think much about it and clicked ok.
    The software updates that I installed were:
    1.) Java for Mac OS X 10.3, Update 5 version 5.0
    2.) Quicktime version 7.1.6
    3.) Security Update 2007-005 version 1.0
    4.) Security Update 2007-006 version 1.0
    Now I cannot connect to the airport. Everyone else around me is fine. The airport icon in the top right corner shows 4 bars. When I go into Network Status, it says that the AirPort is turned on but is not connected to the internet with a yellow dot next to it.
    I went into keychain access and under access control, I noticed that the box was checked next to "confirm before allowing access". However, whenever I try to connect to the internet either via Firefox or Safari, there is no pop up that asks me to confirm. Also, I tried to change the settings in Keychain Access, I changed the setting to "Allow all applications to access this item" and when I click save changes, I get the color wheel of death and the program is listed as not responding.
    When I try to enter the WEP 40/128-bit hex password, it either says the computer cannot connect to this network or I get the spinning color wheel and nothing happens and I have to restart the computer.
    Does anyone have any suggestions? Perhaps I can uninstall whatever I installed or I need to reconfigure the IP address (I have no idea how to do this)
    Thank you so much for your help!! It is much appreciated.

    First, try repairing permissions. It's often recommended to be done both before AND after installing software updates.
    Find Disk Utilities in the Utilities folder (on the Applications folder). Launch it and, in the left-hand pane, single-click your boot volume (if you have multiple volumes/drives/partitions on you hard drive). A "Repair Permissions" button is under the main window. Click it and let the program work.
    If that doesn't work, post back.

  • Something changed this afternoon and I can't get online with firefox.

    I've been using Firefox for years now,this problem just started this afternoon.
    When I double click on the firefox desktop icon the following alert window pops up and says: Could not initialize the application's security component. The most likely cause is problems with files in your application's profile directory. Please check that this directory has no read/write restrictions and your hard disk is not full or close to full. It is recommended that you exit the application and fix the problem. If you continue to use this session, you might see incorrect application behaviour when accessing security features. Once I close the alert window, Firefox initiates but I cannot go to any websites! Please help because I have no idea how to fix this problem. My C-drive is not close to being full and internet explorer runs fine. I have a several bookmarks saved in Firefox that would be a shame to loose!

  • Transferred data from old I-Pad to I-Pad two, can't get online or e-mail

    Just transferred data from old I-Pad to I-Pad two, both Wi-fI 3 G. Can't get online with new I-Pad--but can with old one. Suggestions? Will not use 3G with old one, only with new one. Have mobile-me account.

    Try syncing with just the default apps, not apps you have downloaded. Then restart the iPad and see if it makes a difference.

  • Can't get online- even with strong signal- HELP PLEASE!!!

    I have an ibook G4 with an Airport Extreme Card. For the past few months I have been able to go online at home, with absolutely no problems. My desktop at home is a PC with high-speed modem and a wireless router connected. I also travel to school on a regular basis and can connect wirelessly there as well. My problem is, that for the past few days, I can't get online at home. I have a strong signal with the airport card, but both Safari and Firefox say "not connected to the internet" and tell me to refer to Network Diagnostics. I can't figure out why I can't get online. I have been at school during this time with the same laptop and have gone online with no problems at all. Not only that, but both my desktop at home, along with another laptop with wireless capabilities can also go online with no difficulties. I am new to Mac's so I don't have alot of knowledge. I am not sure if maybe my Network settings are wrong?? Any advice anyone could give would be sooo helpful. I have been pulling my hair out for days over this!

    Try the following:
    Delete Preferred Network(s)
    - System Preferences > Network > AirPort > Configure
    - In the "By default, join:" pull-down menu, select "Preferred networks"
    - Delete the network(s) you regularly use from the list
    Delete AirPort Keychain Entries
    - Launch the "Keychain Access" application located in Applications/Utilties.
    - Click on the "Kind" filter at the top, and look for any "AirPort network password" entries...and delete them.
    - Restart, or log out then back in.
    Add Preferred Network(s)
    - System Preferences > Network > AirPort > Configure
    - In the "By default, join:" pull-down menu, select "Preferred networks"
    - Add the preferred network(s) using the "+" button.
    - Restart or log out then back in.

  • If I order an ipod touch 5g online can I get it with IOS7?

    If I order an ipod touch 5g online can I get it with IOS7? Any suggestions?? Please help!

    Since IOS7 has not been released yet, you will not get it installed in your new I Pod if you buy it now.  However, you will be able to install it free of charge when IOS7 is released, probably this fall.

  • I reset my WRT54G and now I can't get online.

    I did a factory reset of my WRT54G v.2 last night after I was unable to access the router's setting to set up a WEP password (couldn't remember login/pass and the default login wasn't working) and now I can not connect to the internet through my router.
    -I have no problem getting online when I run directly through my DSL modem.
    -I called my ISP to see what they recommended- someone told me perhaps a modem reset would help. I'm on a DSL modem, which they had me configure to PPOE. I set up the router for PPOE under the basic settings tab, adding my user name and password. I changed no other settings. Basically my ISP said everything was normal on their end.
    -I've Downloaded the firmware and updated that through the router
    -When the router is fully connected there are no light anomalies that I know of (WLAN light and 1 & 2 ports are solid, internet light blinks once every 5 seconds or so).
    -I've tried powering down, unplugging, and waiting- all the usual tips.
    -My wireless computers acknowledge the router's existence, but like the wired computers, are unable to connect to the internet.
    -On my network's properties the number of packets sent and received climbs at a very small rate, but they do increase (I'm told that activity is a good sign).
    -One of the oddest things is, when I attempt to run the installation software, when connected to the internet directly through my modem, as suggested by the installation wizard, the first step that attempts to check for an internet connection says it can't find a connection even though I can browse the web perfectly fine.
    EDIT: I think this might be caused by my ethernet cable/network running through a secondary port in the back of my PC. The start up disk is looking for a signal from the default/1st port and therefore getting no connection, even though my computer is online. Will have to check this later.
    -When connected to my modem, I run cmd then ipconfig, my IP address is
    192.168.1.13, is there something I need to do with this in the router set up?
    Does anyone have any idea what I could be doing differently? I've reset my router before and never been this stuck. I called customer support but they basically wanted $40 to troubleshoot my router as the warranty has expired and I'd almost rather just buy a new one.

    "You have to change your router's IP address to be able to access it. It will not give you the internet."
    I'm not sure what that means Richard, but I did change the router's IP address from 192.168.1.1 to 192.168.5.1- isn't that what you meant in your first post. I know that isn't reflected in my screen capture that I took last night, but I did do that this morning after I read your post.
    "Log on to your router and change two settings.
    Change the setting in Setup from PPPoE to Automatic Configuration-DHCP and click on save.
    Click on Advance Routing and change the setting from Gateway to Router then click on save."
    I did this and still same results as far as I can tell. Can't get online through the router.
    "Click on MAC address clone under setup tab ... click enable & click clone ...click save settings ... Check the IPaddress under WAN page ....
    If getting IP in public range .... try going online ...."
    I tried this- at least to the part about checking the IP address under WAN. I assume you mean the WAN page in the modem setup- nothing looked any different after trying what you suggested, and I'm not really sure where I would be "getting IP in public range" or what that means.
    I'm about to give up and just buy a new router to see if I can get the same lack of results with a different one. My ISP maintains that everything is set up correctly on their end and really can't do anything more for me. The Modem works and is set up correctly and they can give tech support for a router.
    Here's what my basic setup looks like now:

    Are you trying to reinstall Firefox? If you open up Internet Explorer on your computer, can you get online? If you can't get online there then you likely have some sort of connection issue.
    If you Can get online with Internet Explorer, simply go to [http://www.getfirefox.com www.getfirefox.com], and press the Download Now button. Click "Run" then install Firefox on your machine. If you still have troubles after installing Firefox, please let me know and we can fix those.

  • Can't get online after switching from a Dell

    Can anyone help me?
    I just switched to a PowerBook G4 from using a Dell, and now I can't get online. I'm using a cable modem, but apparently my Apple won't recognize it. I talked to Apple tech support for over an hour, and they sent me to the Apple store who, of course, couldn't duplicate my problem. The guy at the store said this happens a lot when you switch from a Windows machine to a Mac because the modem "knows" which computer it should be trying to connect to. My Apple won't receive an IP address from the modem, and neither Apple nor my cable company can fix it. I've never used an Apple before and I'm getting really frustrated!
    PowerBook G4   Mac OS X (10.4.6)  

    You're welcome.
    Copied from the link I provided.
    The Apple Hardware Test was originally distributed on a separate Apple Hardware Test CD. The latest Macs distribute the Apple Hardware Test on a special volume on the Software Restore and Install DVD. Each Apple Hardware Test is specific to the type and model of Mac with which it was distributed.
    Since the Apple Hardware Test is included on the Software Restore and Install DVD that shipped with your Mac when purchased, Apple won't just send you another one.
    Your employer needs to give you the OS X install package that shipped with this Mac when purchased to keep handy. Although there is an alternative, to run Disk First Aid repair on the hard drive to check for any hard drive directory problems requires booting the computer from the OS X install disc #1 that shipped with this Mac when purchased.
    Check Resolving Disk, Permission, and Cache Corruption for system troubleshooting procedures with instructions for running Disk First Aid repair on the hard drive.
    This is also recommended before installing a major OS X update such as 10.4.6 or 10.4.7 which is expected to be released soon.
    See Installing software updates for future reference.
    Since you are new to Macs and OS X, check Maintaining Mac OS X for recommended maintenance for OS X which isn't much but also good info to know for future reference.

  • Connected to the network but can't get online

    Hi there- I have a WRT54G router that is wirelessly connected to an ibook. There are times that there is an additional dell laptop that i need to get online with and although the dell says it is connected to the network (with excellent strength) it can't get online i get the 'problem loading page'. I have used more than one computer with this router before, although in a different apt with a different provider (if that matters). Anyway, this is truly annoying so if anyone has any insight that would be great! I did read in the forums that its possible there is only one IP address, and admittedly my knowledge of networking is basic at best, i know that more than one computer has been connected in the past. I did try turning off the mac then connecting the Dell and it still didn't work. Thanks in advance for ANY advice! Sara

    Hi, I’ve recently bought an iPad2 and can’t get connected with AppStore or iTunes, when I tap on these icons a grey page pops up saying is loading but never opens the page, no failure message is displayed, it just keep saying is loading.
    Apparently it is not an issue with wifi since Safari, You Tube and Maps work well, I’ve tried some of the tips, e.g. log off/on my Id, change password but no one worked.
    Your help will be highly appreciated.
