Help with Ethernet connection

My daughter has upgraded to a G4 Powerbook, so I've got her previous laptop, an iBook G3 dual USB. I'm basically a PC user, so am new to Apple and OSX. I've been trying to connect to my DSL service, have created a New Location in Network settings, selected Built-in Ethernet, and Using DCHP. When I Apply Now, a new window opens and it's trying to dial an old ISP with the internal modem. I have gone through the process many times. Any suggestions as to fixing this will be greatly appreciated!
Thanks,

hi steve--
i would delete the old location, as well as making sure that no other ports are enabled except for "built-in-ethernet" in the network settings. [ 8 ) ]

HT3728 My Time Capsule is working fine with ethernet connection, but it is no longer working with wifi, probably because of my wrong setting; is there a way to reset wifi setting without losing backuped data? Thanks you all

1) are you sure a reset holding the reset button will not delete my data?
Absolutely sure.. There is no connection at all.. reset is only the router side of the TC.
For the hard disk to be erased you need to access the airport utility disk page.. request erase and confirm the operation.
2) I can access to time capsule by ethernet but I am not able to input the corret setting by myself
Thank you again
I am uncertain why if you have access you cannot change settings.. but that is why you reset things so any of those problems should be fixed.
Here is the Apple info on reset.
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3728
And here is the quote from the horse's mouth so to speak.
Factory default reset: Perform this reset if you wish to repurpose the AirPort Base Station or Time Capsule and want to remove all personal profiles and settings first. This reset resets the device to its state when you first purchased it. Data stored on internal or external hard drives connected to the device will not be erased. If you choose, you may manually erase the hard drive using AirPort Utility.

Help with ethernet problems

Can anyone help with this?
Have a black powerbook, snow leopard, safari. No problems at all with wireless/ethernet at home
When at work, usually just unplug ethernet from work PC and once plugged into mac, it automatically detects internet connection just like that
For some reason, tonight, when I try this have no connection (an exclamation mark over the airport icon) and when I go into network in sys pref, says "self assigned ip address"
If I switch to DHCP manually, can input ip address from PC and it works fine but whenever i try and switch to automatic, it wont work
Have spent ages looking through the internet to try and find answer - firewall is off, no recent changes to software/hardware, flushed ipfw, etc
Any bright ideas?
Thanks a lot

I am a bit confused by your post. Are you trying to connect to your network wirelessly using the AirPort card, or are you trying to use a wired connection via your Ethernet port?
What is the source of your Internet connection? DSL? Cable modem? Something else?
Are you connected to a router? What make and model?
Best of luck.

Help with Ethernet broadband please

Forgive me for asking what are probably simple questions - but I am having trouble with Ethernet broadband and I cant find answers anywhere ( including from my ISP ) . Thanks in advance for any help here !
I have a blue and white 700 MHZ g3 imac running OSX 10.2.8 and OS 9.2 . I recently had Ethernet broadband hooked up - it connects to the net for a couple minutes , then wont receive for hours, then works for an hour, then not, etc. The ISP says that the D-Link router they installed is getting a continously strong signal - that they cant see anything wrong from thier end . The guys who installed the receiver thing-ey on the outside of my house also configured the Ethernet setup . Should I re-set up all that ? What do I need to know from the ISP to do that ? Do I have to boot up in OS9 and set up the Ethernet there also ?
I dont have an Airport card but that shoul;dnt matter right ? I only have the one computer .

Please post in the CRT iMac discussions. Thank you.

How do I setup Airport express with ethernet connection to my modem?

Hi there - hoping to get some helpg as I'm having challnges setting up my Airport express via ethernet cable connection directly to my router. It will setup wirelessly no problem, but I occasionally get dropouts when streaming music and I'm hoping to remedy that with a direct cable connection. I know I have to change some settings in my airport utility, but haven't had any luck getting it right.
Here is my setups if it helps:
Airport express, 1st generation, model A1264
Cisco router (provided by my intenet provider)
Macbook Air, running 10.8.5
Airport utility version 6.3.1
Thanks!
Phil

Unfortunately, you are getting incorrect advice here. Might be a good idea to start a new post, since the original thread is long out of date.
First, please confirm that you have a compatible Express with the AirPort Extreme. This would be either the current A1392 version.....or the previous A1264 version.
Next, we need to confirm "how' you want to extend, since you do not mention this in your post.
Are you planning to "extend" by connecting the AirPort Express to the AirPort Extreme using a permanent, wired Ethernet connection (highly recommended).....or.....are you trying to "extend" by having the Express try to connect wirelessly to the AirPort Extreme?

Can someone help with a connection problem?

I have a DroidX2 and have noticed that the phone routinely switches from 3G to 1X, especially in certain rooms in the house..
This is consistant and usually the signal is only two bars.
Whenever I try to watch a Youtube video it will play for maybe 12 seconds and then I will have to play with the settings in Youtube to download more of the video. Maybe 1 out of 50 times the video plays straight through without stopping. Most of the time the screen will show 1X instead of 3G. Could it be my phone settings, phone coverage or Youtube causing the problem? I sometimes have dropped calls as well. I have the most current software and Youtube was recently updated. I am also receiving "cannot establish a connection" messages on Youtube. Can someone please help? Thank you.

Lorenzo1950, thanks for posting! Are you still having issues with your connections? What is your zip code? How long has this been an issue? Does this issue with streaming video only happen at home or everywhere?^SP

Can you help with my connection issues

I cannot connect to my Contribute CS3 even though my server is fine. Does anyone have any suggestions? I spent the last hour on the phone with my server company and they tried but failed to help me connect.

Please try the following steps.
Delete the existing connection from Edit -> My connection .
Create a new connection and when you Click the Advanced button next to the "How do you connect to your web server?" field in the Connection Information dialog box.
Try toggling the Passive Mode check box (if it is unchecked, check it; if it is checked, uncheck it).
If you are behind a firewall, check the Use firewall/proxy settings when connecting check box and click the Firewall Settings or Proxy Settings button to enter firewall information. Ask your local network administrator for help with these settings.
Once done with the new connection you would be able to connect to your website. For more information on connection issues you may use this link http://helpx.adobe.com/contribute/kb/troubleshoot-connection-problems-contribute.html

Airport utility setup with ethernet connections

Can you set up a wireless network and a printer with airport utility with a ethernet connection on a PC?

Can you set up a wireless network and a printer with airport utility with a ethernet connection on a PC?
Yes. The AirPort Utility can access the AirPort or Time Capsule either by wireless or wired connection from a PC.

MacBook Pro running mountain lion restarts with Ethernet connected

Hi all,
My MacBook Pro (early 2012 15") running Mountain Lion (10.8.1) seems to always restart whenever I connect it to an Ethernet. The wireless works fine and there are no problems. The Ethernet connects then about a minute later my MacBook just restarts no matter what I am doing. I have gotten a new Ethernet cable but the same issue keeps happening. I haven't been able to try another Ethernet port as of yet, I am at school so mine might not work correctly however the Ethernet works fine for my friends PCs.
Does anyone have any ideas that could help me? I would really like to use Ethernet because the wireless here tends to be slow.
Thank you!

I realize no one has responded to this but I am still having the issue even after a month. I also now have a panic report if that helps at all.

Help with motherboard connections...

guys could u please help me out wit the cable connections to the motherboard..
jus bought the new components today to assemble my cpu..
Proc: AMD Athlon X2 3600
MB : MSI K9AGM2
Ram : 1gb kingston ddr2 667mhz
HD: Samsung spinpoint(40 gb) IDE
drive : Samsung CDRW+DVD combo
as of now...i've put in the motherboard,made the basic connections except
but the 'speaker' wire from the cabinet,supply for the Cabinet fan..
SO COULD U JUS GIVE ME A STEP-BY-STEP GUIDE TO CHECK ALL CONNECTIONS BEFORE POWERIN IT ON ???
btw,this is my first time...assembling a cpu..
REALLY APPRECIATE THE HELP..
THNX.
shown below are pics of wat i've done so far..

thnx all..i actually was right with my connections after all...after much apprehension i turned it on a few hours after i first posted here and it FIRED UP INSTANTLY WITH NO PROBLEMS WHATSOEVER !
i was worried b'coz there was no slot to insert the 'cabinet speaker' pin & whether the board had an onboard speaker..
and "vernonion"..the psu i use came with my mercury cabinet..it's a 300w mercury psu and yes its only got a 20pin connector..
considering i don't use any graphics card nor any extra devices i feel this is enough for now..

[8i] Need help with hierarchical (connect by) query

First, I'm working in 8i.
My problem is, I keep getting the error ORA-01437: cannot have join with CONNECT BY.
And, the reason I get that error is because one of the criteria I need to use to prune some branches with is in another table... Is there anyway to work around this? I tried an in-line view (but got the same error). I thought about using the connect by query as an in-line view and filtering off what I don't want that way, but I'm not sure how to filter out an entire branch...
Here is some simplified sample data:
CREATE TABLE     bom_test
(     parent          CHAR(25)
,     component     CHAR(25)
,     qty_per          NUMBER(9,5)
INSERT INTO     bom_test
VALUES     ('ABC-1','101-34',10);
INSERT INTO     bom_test
VALUES     ('ABC-1','A-109-347',2);
INSERT INTO     bom_test
VALUES     ('ABC-1','ABC-100G',1);
INSERT INTO     bom_test
VALUES     ('ABC-1','1A247G01',2);
INSERT INTO     bom_test
VALUES     ('ABC-100G','70052',18);
INSERT INTO     bom_test
VALUES     ('ABC-100G','M9532-278',5);
INSERT INTO     bom_test
VALUES     ('1A247G01','X525-101',2);
INSERT INTO     bom_test
VALUES     ('1A247G01','1062-324',2);
INSERT INTO     bom_test
VALUES     ('X525-101','R245-9010',2);
CREATE TABLE     part_test
(     part_nbr     CHAR(25)
,     part_type     CHAR(1)
INSERT INTO     part_test
VALUES     ('ABC-1','M');
INSERT INTO     part_test
VALUES     ('101-34','P');
INSERT INTO     part_test

Hi,

First, I'm working in 8i.
My problem is, I keep getting the error ORA-01437: cannot have join with CONNECT BY.
And, the reason I get that error is because one of the criteria I need to use to prune some branches with is in another table... Is there anyway to work around this? I tried an in-line view (but got the same error). Post your query. It's very hard to tell what you're doing wrong if we don't know what you're doing.

You mean you want don't want the descendants (children, grandchildren, etc.) of any component whose part_type is not 'M'.
The part_type of the component itself doesn't matter: component '101-34' is included, even though its part_type is 'P', and component 'X525-101' is excluded, even though its part_type is 'M'.

Any suggestions?Sorry, I don't have an Oracle 8.1 database at hand now. All three of the queries below get the correct results in Oracle 10.2, and I don't believe they do anything that isn't allowed in 8.1.
You can't do a join and CONNECT BY in the same query on Oracle 8.1.
I believe you can do one first, then the other, using in-line views. The frist two queries do the join first.
--     Query 1: Join First
SELECT     LEVEL
,     component
,     parent
,     qty_per
FROM     (     -- Begin in-line view to join bom_test and part_test
          SELECT     b.component
          ,     b.parent
          ,     b.qty_per
          ,     p.part_type     AS parent_type
          FROM     bom_test     b
          ,     part_test     p
          WHERE     p.part_nbr     = b.parent
     )     -- End in-line view to join bom_test and part_test
START WITH     parent     = 'ABC-1'
CONNECT BY     parent          = PRIOR component
     AND     parent_type     = 'M'
;Query 2 is very much like Query 1, but it does more filtering in the sub-query, returning only rows hose part_type or whose parent's part_type is 'M". Your desired result set will be a tree taken entirely from this set. Query 2 may be faster, because the sub-query is more selective, but then again, it may be slower because it has to do an extra join.
{code}
-- Query 2: Join first, prune in sub-query
SELECT     LEVEL
,     component
,     parent
,     qty_per
FROM     (     -- Begin in-line view to join bom_test and part_test
          SELECT     b.component
          ,     b.parent
          ,     b.qty_per
          ,     p.part_type     AS parent_type
          FROM     bom_test     b
          ,     part_test     p
          ,     part_test     c
          WHERE     p.part_nbr     = b.parent
          AND     c.part_nbr     = b.component
          AND     'M'          IN (c.part_type, p.part_type)
     )     -- End in-line view to join bom_test and part_test
START WITH     parent     = 'ABC-1'
CONNECT BY     parent          = PRIOR component
     AND     parent_type     = 'M'
{code}
Query 3, below, takes a completely different approach. It does the CONNECT BY query first, then does a join to see what the parent's part_type is. We can easily cut out all the nodes whose parent's part_type is not 'M', but that will leave components like 'R245-9010' whose parent has part_type 'M', but should be excluded because its parent is excluded. To get the correct results, we can do another CONNECT BY query, using the same START WITH and CONNECT BY conditions, but this time only looking at the pruhed results of the first CONNECT BY query.
{code}
--     Query 3: CONNECT BY, Prune, CONNECT BY again
SELECT     LEVEL
,     component
,     parent
,     qty_per
FROM     (     -- Begin in-line view of 'M' parts in hierarchy
          SELECT     h.component
          ,     h.parent
          ,     h.qty_per
          FROM     (     -- Begin in-line view h, hierarchy from bom_test
                    SELECT     component
                    ,     parent
                    ,     qty_per
                    FROM     bom_test
                    START WITH     parent     = 'ABC-1'
                    CONNECT BY     parent     = PRIOR component
               ) h     -- End in-line view h, hierarchy from bom_test
          ,     part_test     p
          WHERE     p.part_nbr     = h.parent
          AND     p.part_type     = 'M'
     )     -- End in-line view of 'M' parts in hierarchy
START WITH     parent     = 'ABC-1'
CONNECT BY     parent     = PRIOR component
{code}
I suspect that Query 3 will be slower than the others, but if the CONNECT BY query is extremely selective, it may be better.

ATV2 with ethernet connection not found by Apple remote app

Not sure if this is really possible/supported:
* Apple TV 2 connected to an ethernet/wifi routher with an ethernet cable
* iPhone connected to same wifi router
* Both have an ip address in the range 10.0.0.x
* Using the same Apple ID
The remote app cannot find the ATV device. My guess was, since the are in the same network, the app should find the ATV. Am I wrong?
Hint: The ATV DOES find an iTunes library on my Windows computer, attached with an ethernet cable. So network connectivity on the ATV is working.

no.
a similar setup works for me.

Help with Oracle Connection- "Input string was not in a correct format"

Hello, can some one, anyone please help me. I have a simple VS 2005 C# application that connects to oracle. I've set it up to take the username, password and tnsname as arguments. I am using Client 9i, version 9.2.0.401 of Oracle.DataAccess.dll, and .NET Framework 2.0.
It works fine when I run it from VS 2005, I have also set up a test machine w/o VS 2005 and ran my install package and it runs fine. I sent it to one of my co-workers and when he tries it the OracleConnection obect fails with the error.
"Input string was not in a correct format"
strange in that it is not an ORA error, just the identifed text!?
Here is the code:
## begin code
OracleConnection dbc = new OracleConnection();
string sConnectString = "User Id=" + username.ToString() + ";Password=" + password.ToString() + ";Data Source=" + tnsname.ToString();
dbc.ConnectionString = sConnectString.ToString();
MessageBox.Show("Attempting to Connect to Oracle");
dbc.Open();
MessageBox.Show("Connected to Oracle: " + dbc.ServerVersion);
## end code
Pretty basic, what could be going on?
Since this only happens with an installation, I put in the message boxes to verify exactly where it chokes. I get the first message box, then an error with the identified text. I've seen a number of posts regarding input string format problems, but not a one dealing with OracleConnection.Open(). I added all the ToString() calls just to make sure everything was a string but it did not change the end result.
Anyone? Thanks In advance!
Eric S.

Hello,
well, i got a message "...string not wellformed format...", too.
If you have defined the parameters as string, you don't need the additonal "ToString()". Please ckeck your tnsnames -string. Try to debug this. I believe you have copy the format from the tnsnames.ora and there you have much brackets.
For example, two code snippets:
As datasource i use <Server>:<Port>/<Instance>
try
string FDsn ="User Id="+FDbUser+";Password="+FDbPwd;
FDsn +=";Data Source=wth5:1521/Ora9.wth5";
FConn = new OracleConnection(FDsn);
FConn.Open();
if (FConn.State == ConnectionState.Open )
FConn.Close();
catch (Exception ex)
FStateMsg = "Connection to database failed. Check Configuration in parameter: ConnectionString. " + ex.Message;
Above i connect to a Ora 9.2.0.1
by using
FDsn +=";Data Source=wth5:1522/XE";
i connect to an OraExpress database on the same machine.
My Oracle.dataAccess.dll ist the newest, 10.2.... and it runs under Framework 1.1.x and Framework 2.x
I'll hope it will help you. Best regards!

Help with problem connecting to itunes

My son's Ipod touch is not showing up as being recognized by Itunes. We did and reset on it and now all that comes up on his screen are the icons that show to plug your ipod into the USB port so it can link with Itunes. When we plug it in nothing happens though because I do not think Ipod is being recognized.
Don't know why or how this has happenned. he tried to jailbreak his Ipod last week but was unsuccessful. Don't know if this hurt it or not.
Can anyone help as to what I should do?

Mac mini will lock up with ethernet connection

Hi,
I've bought a mac mini intel intel 1.83GHz dual core with 2GB of RAM (RAM from apple, the mac mini came with the 2GB installed)
If I don't connect the ethernet port, everything seems ok.
I have connected the ethernet port to get internet, but while I was downloading the software updates, some of the downloads failed. Then if I go to the system preferences/network and double click on the ethernet configuration, the system will lock up (I cannot launch any more new application, I cannot even shutdown, Finder will display empty hard drives and so on) and if I run the Terminal before and do a "top" I can see that the kernel tasks reach 100%. But no kernel panics.
I've tried a different ethernet cable (actually the one on my mac mini ppc) and it will still fail. Both mac mini ppc & mac mini intel are in the same kind of network configuration.
There was 2 times where the computer locked up at around 10.7 MB of download of 10.4.8, and one time I was able to download it all, but I'm still not able to manage to download every other updates. That to say that it may lock up at some random time.
I did a complete 10.4 reinstall (erasing hard drive), and managed to update the EFI firmware, but this didn't solve the problem. I also tried to let it of 15 seconds with no power cable, and put everything back, but it is still the same.
So what I see at the first glance would be :
- internal ethernet card problem
- some weird memory problem
I would like to test the memory, and I remember there was a "apple hardware test" CD before on its own. As far I've seen I only have the 2 CDs for MacOS 10.4.7 reinstallation.
Please give me some advice before I go to an apple center.
Thanks
mac mini Mac OS X (10.4.8)

You can run the hardware diagnostics from the Installation disc.
Insert the disc, restart the Mini, and hold down the D key while the Mini starts up again. This will allow you to run the diagnostics.
The hardware diagnostics will detect only the most obvious memory problems. It may miss subtle problems.
I think you probably have a defective Mini. But before I took it back to Apple, I would try it in a different building with a different internet connection and different electrical power. It is possible that the electrical power in your building is the source of the problem, or it is possible that your router or modem that connects to the internet is not compatible.
I would also try turning off all the equipment. Then turn on the internet router/modem and then the Mini about 3 minutes later.
