Reset password and now cannot connect to the internet

I tried to reset my airport password, and now airport utilities cannot locate the base station and the password is said to be invailid when I enter it, or it repeatedly askes for the password with not change. Any tips??

Push the reset button on the AirPort for one second and release. You now have a few minutes of free access to go in and change the passwords.
If this does not work, then unfortunately, there is not much that you can do at this point other than reset the AirPort router back to factory default settings and then re-configure it again, using a new device name, new wireless network name and password(s).
If you decide to do this.....
Power off the AirPort router for a few minutes
Then, hold in the reset button first...and continue to hold it in for an additional 10 seconds.....while you simultaneously plug the power back into the AirPort router
Release the reset button after the hold period, and allow a full minute for the AriPort to restart
The AirPort is now ready to be re-configured again from scratch

I have downloaded the new update for Firefox 3.6 and now cannot connect to the internet. I've checked my firewall and have uninstalled and reinstalled firefox, but nothing works.

After installing the new update for Firefox 3.6, no matter what I do, I cannot connect to the internet using Firefox. I can get on the internet using my other browsers (Google Chrome and Internet Explorer), so Firefox is the only one that doesn't work. I have already checked my firewall and have added and removed Firefox from my firewall to no avail. I've also already uninstalled and reinstalled Firefox, but so far it hasn't helped.

I have already tried removing firefox from my firewall. Even when I do that, my firewall doesn't detect firefox and prompt me to add it. And when I manually add it, it still doesn't work anyways. I've already tried the link as well, but it has been unhelpful. :/
I'm not sure if it matters, but a few weeks before this, I did download Microsoft Security Essentials.

I just upgraded to firefox 6 and now cannot connect to the internet. IE still works fine but firefox won't connect. Any suggestions on how to get the new firefox to connect to the internet?

I just upgraded to ff 6.0.1 via an automatic push. Since then, ff hasnt been able to connect to the internet. Error message:
Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at www.google.com.Firefox can't establish a connection to the server at www.google.com.
IE has no trouble connecting to the internet.

After upgrading, your firewall may not be recognizing the new Firefox version and is not allowing it access to the internet. On your firewall progam's allowed applications list, remove Firefox, then re-start Firefox, try going to a website, your firewall will detect the new version of Firefox, then give the permissions needed for Firefox to have internet access.

If not this:
iOS: Wi-Fi or Bluetooth settings grayed out or dim
One user reported that placing the iPod in the freezer fixed the problem.
Also heating sometimes works. See:
Why can't I select my wifi settings?
A trick that works frequently with iPhones:
Settings > AirPlane Mode ON, Do Not Disturb ON
Power down and wait 5-10 minutes
Power up
Settings > AirPlane Mode OFF, Do Not Disturb OFF
If not successful, an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is usually in order.

Then:
Does the iOS device connect to other networks? See other networks? If yes that tends to indicate a problem with your network.
Does the iOS device see the network?
Any error messages?
Do other devices now connect?
Did the iOS device connect before?
Try the following to rule out a software problem:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Power off and then back on your router

- iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
- Restore from backup. See:

- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem and it does not connect to any networks make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

HT4628 My Mac Air OSX10.8.5 won't connect to the internet as it says it has a self assigned IP address and thus cannot connect to the internet. I can only connect to a network by manually typing in the configuration specs. Please help.

My mac air OSX10.8.5 won't connect to the internet. It says it has a 'self assigned IP address and therefore cannot connect to the internet'. Network diagnostics is unable to the solve the problem. It happened suddenly for no reason and now I cannot connect except by typing in the configuration settings manually. Please help me!

Use the Airport Utility or log into your wireless device via http and ensure the DHCP/NAT service is enabled. If accessing via HTTP, you will need to manually set an ip within your local subnet (eg: 192.168.0.x).

Husband just purchased IPAD and I cannot connect to the internet. I found a network that appears to be "useable" but I cannot get anything to come up on the screen;(

I just got my ipad yesterday, and already I have a prob;( When I look for a network, I find one that appears to be appropriate, but I am not able to connect to the internet;( I have a Netgear router, but the real deal is...(being blatantly honest here becuz I desparately want to use my new DEVICE!!) I don't know what exactly to do with the router to get a connection w/my ipad. At this point it is just simply turned on...meaning the adapter is hooked up....that's where I'm at and if anyone know any info plz plz...help. I am currently using my desktop to write this....just fyi
Thank you
Gail

You only connect automatically once the device knows and remembers the connection. You will need the Password to connect to it for the very first time.
Clearly the Laptop was setup with the correct password 5 years ago.
The only thing that can be suggested is to look on the side of the Netgear router, sometimes the default password is printed there.
If that doesn't work, there's not much to do other than contacting your ISP, and have them walk you through resetting the router so it goes back to the default password and settings.

Sat here for hours and still cannot connect to the internet

Hi there,
I have been sat here now about around 6 hours trying to figure this out. I just bought a Philips SNA6500 ADSL Wireless Base Station to connect to the internet. I am at present using my speedtouch usb modem to connect. I have tried and tried to connect to no avail. I am on BT Broadband and put in all my details on Internet Connect, but it continuously states that it can not connect to the PPP Server. It connects via Ethernet, but wont load any websites at all.
Sorry if this has been posted before, I have checked through most of the posts and couldn't find anything.
Thank you for any help if anyone knows - I really hope they can!

I dont know the Philips SNA6500 but from a brief Google it would appear that it has an ADSL modem built in. Why are you using the Speedtouch? Where have you got it plugged in? Disconnect the Speedtouch, plug the Philips into a filter, then plug the filter into your phone socket. Follow the set up wizard and it should work.
Good luck.

I had to restore my ipad but do not remember the original used name or password and now cannot start up the ipad. pl help

could not restart my ipad after restoring it as I could not remember the original user name or password I had associated it with then.

Try to reset your password at My Apple ID (appleid.apple.com) as described in this document:
iCloud: Find My iPhone Activation Lock in iOS 7
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5818
What if I forget my Apple ID password?
If you forget your password, you can reset it at My Apple ID (appleid.apple.com) or by contacting Apple Support and verifying your identity. Once your password has been reset, it will work normally with Find My iPhone and Activation Lock.
If you forget your password and cannot reset it, you will lose access to your Apple ID and may be unable to use or reactivate your device. To help prevent this, visit My Apple ID periodically to review and update your account information.

TA48312 I'm using iTunes 11 final version on my pc windows 7 and I cannot connect to the internet with any of its feautures. why? I'll be grateful if you help,thanks in advance.

Hi everybody,
First of all I was not one of iTues users till by chance discovered its amazing features of downloading all kinds of items that help in education in particular. I set up iTunes version 8 I gusse and it was working properly either by using direct connect to the material or downloading it. Then, I made I mistake when I tried version 11 and everything stopped working. No downloading or even connecting the web. I'm a student and I'm in a bad need to this wonderful programme. I must not forget that I tried many steps to solve this problem by uninstalling iTunes with its contents from its roots till registry files, and I set up the old version once and then the newer version 11 and finally version 9 and all my trials were in vain. Please I need your help and advise. I'm looking forward for your reply and thanks in advance for your care.
adam karim,

Many thanks.
With those symptoms, I'd try the following document:
Apple software on Windows: May see performance issues and blank iTunes Store
(If there's a SpeedBit LSP showing up in Autoruns, it's usually best to just uninstall your SpeedBit Video Accelerator.)

You may have to do this several times.
Saw this solution on another post about an iPad in a school environment. Might work on your iPad so you won't lose everything.

‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just canceling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.
 Cheers, Tom
