No internet access while watching HBO on my laptop

When I watch HBO on my laptop, my wireless connectivity goes to no internet access frequently. It works okay when I disconnect and re-connect. However, there is no problem when I am watching youtube or other channels on laptop. Internet connection is fine generally, but this frequent issue is troubling.

You probably need to allow the new version of Firefox to have access through your Firewall program. See this for instructions for the most popular Firewall programs. <br />

No Internet Access while Apps configure with Static IP - How to resolve?

Dear Legends,
I have installed a development instance which my configuration as follows:
OS - Oracle Enterprise Linux 5.7 64 bit
Instance - R12.1.3
HDD - 500 GB
RAM - 8GB
IP - static - 192.168.1.10
Subnet mask - 255.255.255.0
Gateway - 192.168.1.1 --> router ip
I need to setup a static ip only, but if i setup a static ip am able to access instance but no internet access, so that if i need to do any automation work like cron and sendmail is not working. How do i resolve this?
1. I tried to setup a static ip configuration as editing the /etc/hosts and entry as
192.168.1.10 hostname alias
2. edited the resolv.conf for adding a nameserver as follows
search hostname
nameserver primary dns
nameserver secondary dns
but these entries are not available when i issue a service network restart
3. Edited /etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/ifcfg-eth0
# Realtek Semiconductor Co., Ltd. RTL8111/8168B PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet controller
DEVICE=eth0
BOOTPROTO=none --> even i have changed this to STATIC/none but no change
HWADDR=B8:88:E3:30:1A:ED
ONBOOT=yes
TYPE=Ethernet
USERCTL=no
IPV6INIT=no
PEERDNS=yes
HOSTNAME=devl.rel.net
IPADDR=192.168.1.10
NETMASK=255.255.255.0
GATEWAY=192.168.1.1
Since i'm trying to update my old threads if it is similar to this but i dont find any old threads, please kindly request you to provide your valuable suggestions.

HT1657 i rented a move from iTunes...i was on a plane and tried to watch it, but got a message that there was a problem in accessing the iTunes store. i had a wifi connection, but had to buy internet access to watch the movie. is this normal?

i rented a movie from itunes. i was on a plane when i tried to access it...but got an error message saying "cannot access itunes store". i had a wifi connection but had to purchase internet to watch the movie on the plane. never had this problem with my ipad and never have it when i download tv shows. what's the deal with movies?

It's not normal, presuming that the movie downloaded completely, but it has come up from time to time. I've not been able to figure out from the various posts why rentals work for most but in some cases insist on a connection to the iTunes store. Go here:
http://www.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html
to report the issue to the iTunes Store. Perhaps they can provide an explanation, though you may just get canned and rather inapplicable replies about how to rent or download.

Watching Rented iTunes Movies in Locations with No Internet Access

After I rent/download movies from iTunes onto my MacBook Pro, will I be able to access/watch those movies if I bring my laptop to a location that has no Internet access (no hotspot, no wi-fi, no nothing)? I know the rentals are good for 30 days and I have 24 hours to finish a movie once I start it, but I'm not sure if I need to have continuous Internet access to watch them even after I rent them.

You only need an internet connection if you're going to transfer the rental from your computer to an iPhone, iPad, or iPod. You can watch it without internet access, like in an airplane without WiFi.
Any other questions are probably answered here: iTunes Store: Movie rental frequently asked questions (FAQ), http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1657

I have Internet access, but don't have an ability to watch videos on our new iPad2. We are in a hotel, could it be their service or firewall issue?

If you are unable to view content that has already been downloaded then you problem is within you device. First shut it down all the way by holiding the sleep button at the top until the power off slide appears at the top of your screen. Then slide that and wait while it powers off. Give it a good 30 seconds to do this. then power it back up. if that doesn't work, you may need to call the apple care folks. One other option is to restore it to factory settings and reload it with the updates first and then sink your media to it. You should already have it backed up to iCloud, but if not, do that first then do the restore.

I received a text today while at work about iCloud keychain verification code. I have not signed up for it or anything that uses it. I work out of the city with limited internet access so not sure why I would be getting this. Is my info safe??

I received a text today while at work about iCloud keychain verification code. I have not signed up for it or anything that uses it. I work out of the city with limited internet access so not sure why I would be getting this. I only got this number about a month ago. Apparently someone else had the number before because I get texts from his family members wondering whats going on. I got one yesterday and the person didn't seem to thrilled that the number was cutoff and today I got 2 texts about iCloud Keychain which I don't even know what it is. Seems suspicious to me. If the person who use to own the number is doing it he should know it is not his number anymore because he obviously didn't pay his bills. I'm not too sure about iCloud Keychain so just want to know my info safe?? It says it can store credit card numbers which is what gets me worried. Frankly I think it's pretty stupid to save that kind if information with any kind of app. But I don't want some random person trying to access my personal information because they are bitter they lost their number. Please let me know as soon as possible so I can change passwords or anything that is needed.
thanks

If it were me, I would go to my carrier and get a new number. Since you have only had it for a month, the inconvenience would be minimal.

Apple TV Keeps restarting while I watch HBO Now?

I have an older Apple TV (September 2010, I think) and it keeps restarting whenever I watch HBO Now. Just randomly, during a program it will restart and put me back to the main screen. HBO Now does remember where I left off on the program, but it happens fairly regularly (before once a day, now once an episode!) and I am not sure why. Apple TV software says it's up to date and it doesn't happen with any of the other apps I regulary run (Netflix, Hulu, WWE Network, Crackle, ABC News).
Any help would be greatly appreciated. It's connected through Wi-FI to my Apple Time Capsule and my Internet is 6MBPs DSL.

I'm cruising the forums looking for a solution to this exact problem. It's doing this on both Hulu and Netflix now.
Second gen, latest software. I've done a restart and restore. Same problem.
What the ****?

Can anyone please help me, I'm having problems with sound while watching video clips using flash player using Internet Explorer\

HT5731 If I rent a movie, would I be able to watch it offline without any internet access?

HT1657 Do you need internet while watching the movie?

Do you need internet while watching it after download?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
From my own personal experience, I have found that when I turn off the Wi-Fi on my Wi-Fi only iPad, I am still able to play rented movies on it. I have tried this perhaps four or five times and in each case, this has been the result. I have also noted that other users have had the same experience as I.
However saying that I have noted a small number of users that have stated they are unable to view rented movies without an Internet connection. This knowledge base article from Apple, also suggests that an Internet connection is required.

I downloaded the newest version of Firefox while I was trying to access Yahoo! and now it is horribly, horribly slow. My Internet access is by dial-up. How can I speed things up or how can I get back my prevous version? What number was it?

I presume that the reason why it takes so much time for Firefox to load and then for me to get responses is because my Internet access if by dial-up. I need a less rich, or complicated, version of Firefox. The previous version was okay in terms of speed. What can I do to speed up the processing. Is it because I downloaded the version from the Yahoo website?

Try using this extension. <br />

TS1398 my wifi is showing connected but i am not getting internet access. When in the settings wifi settings you can see the wheel or timer spinning but never a check mark like my other iPad.

my wifi is showing connected but i am not getting internet access.

Some things to try first:
1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
    •    Launch Settings app
    •    Tap on Wi-Fi
    •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
    •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

Kernel panic / Internet access with a bad AirPort card

My iBook G4 started suffering kernel panics just over a week ago. They have rapidly increased in frequency to the extent that it can take several attempts to boot up because they have started occurring during the boot up process (originally they occurred after the iBook had been on for a while).
I've looked through the forum and have seen that there seem to be some common causes -RAM, AirPort card, or something to do with the HD. I ran disk utility on the HD and it didn't find any problems and I also successfully ran the 'repair disk permissions'. I have tried taking out the RAM -that didn't do anything. The kernel panic does frequently occur when I am either using Mail or Safari, but as I've said, it also occurs when I'm booting up -does the fact that it happens when I boot up mean that it cannot be the AirPort card (which incidentally is not under the keyboard -so it must be inside)?
Earlier today I switched off AirPort and was able to work on the computer for almost three hours without any kernel panic (but also without internet access). Less than a minute after switching it back on, it froze again.
If this does mean that the problem is with the AirPort card, I have a question about internet access. I use the iBook on a wireless network that stems from a modem with a Mac downstairs and I do not have any internet cables, or a phone line, in the room where the iBook is used. Is it possible to use something like AirPort Express even with a bad AirPort card? And does AirPort Express connect to the iBook, or to the main modem downstairs?
Apologies for so many questions and many thanks for any help you are able to give -this has been driving me around the bend for the past week?

Update:
An acquaintance who works for Apple suggested that before assuming that the problem was the AirPort card / buying further equipment, I should boot up with the original installation disk in and use the disk utility function to 'repair disk'. I did that and got a 'Volume Header needs minor repair' message. It repaired that & I restarted the iBook. I was able to do an update back-up to my external hard drive & all was fine until I switched AirPort back on -there was an instant kernel panic.
I figured that it couldn't hurt to run the Apple Hardware Test -did that and restarted again. Was able to open Mail (AirPort was on) but then the AirPort connection disappeared and the pointer froze, but there was no kernel panic screen. I had to force quit -restarted again. This time I was able to use Mail, downloaded a song on iTunes, and was on the internet for about 45mins before the connection disappeared and the pointer froze again. I could force quit the app but with a frozen pointer I ended up having to force quit again.
I waited a while and then booted up again (without problem) but this time I was told that there was no Airport card present! Shut down and reran the Hardware Test (which said that AirPort 'Passed'). When I restarted AirPort was briefly there but disappeared when I opened AirPort Utility and at this point the pointer also froze. I did force quit to get out of the app and then there was a kernel panic. Is this now pretty conclusive that the AirPort card is the problem?
I would appreciate any feedback -I've had a very frustrating week with this.
Thanks.
