A mac, a laptop and a pc can connect to the net, but pc can not conenct to mac or laptop
It's tricky. I have a wireless wrt54g router working off of a comcast cable modem. I have the mac, the laptop and the pc all wired into it. The mac (os X) and the laptop (windows XP) can see and talk to each other and connect to the net. The pc downstairs (windows XP, same version as laptop) can connect to the net, but not to the mac or the lap top, yet it does show up in the network windows of both. I ran the windows network diagnostic and it told me that Default IP Gateway 192.161.1.1 passed, but IP Address 192.168.1.101 failed. I checked the router and the starting IP Address is 192.161.1.100 The same diagnostic on the laptop tells me that IP Address 192.168.1.108 passed. Can anyone tell me why IP Address 192.168.1.101 failed? As far as I can tell both the laptop and the pc have the same internet settings. Thanks Mark
Yes, they need to run bonjour for windows.
The Extreme should also use all short names, no spaces and pure alphanumeric.. it has to meet SMB standard.
Hard disk should also conform to that.
Open Windows Explorer and type directly into the address the name or the IP of the AE.
\\AEName or \\AEIPaddress (replacing with actual name or IP).
If that fails.. try ping.. open a command windows and ping the AE by name or IP.
You can be pretty sure any failure is caused by name issues or firewall issues.. turn off all firewalls and force the computers to home location.

Try #2 and #3 in link below. If neither work, you most likely have a hardware issue.

WHy cant i get phone service? The word " searching " has been in the upper left hand corner for 3 days. I have internet service but no phone service. Does any one have any thoughts or suggestions?
When you say you have Internet service, are you connected to wifi? Have you tried a reset on the phone? Hold the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo, then release. The phone will reboot. After it starts, see what happens. Do you have a valid SIM in the phone, one that is activated through a carrier? Have you contacted the carrier to see what they say, since phone service is a carrier responsibility?

f i have a mid 2009 mac book pro and an apple tv that is the latest one. i can not mirror the mac book on my tv. is it the fact that my computer is a little older than 2011 models which will work. any info is greatly appreciated
chuck schickYes. You need 2011 or later in order to mirror as it requires the newer processor. The alternative is airparrot, which does it via software.

I downloaded Firefox 4.0 and it says to re-install the toolbar but I have not been successful in doing so. I went to the forums and tried all the suggested fixes but none worked. Can I go back to the older version? I had no trouble with that and I do not like this new version at all. I tried a system restore twice and it did not fix the problem.
I would imagine it's the MyWay Searchbar which is classified by most anti-malware scanners as adware, or even worse as spyware. I say that because I see "SmileyCentral" in your list of plugins and that's an add-on for that particular toolbar. You can disable that via Tools | Add-ons | Plugins.
There are a number of toolbars which won't work with Firefox 4 anymore due to the enhanced protection mechanisms in the browser.
Mozilla recommends that you only install add-ons from its own security site @ https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/?browse=featured Generally speaking, those have all been tested and approved. The exceptions are those currently under review which are marked with a yellow banner to warn users that they haven't passed Mozilla's labs yet. -

You cannot recover your loss unless you insure your device for such loss. It is not covered by your warranty.
If your iPhone, iPod, iPod Touch, or iPad is lost or stolen what do you do? There are things you should have done in advance - before you lost it or it was stolen - and some things to do after the fact. Here are some suggestions:

I tried connecting my Ipod Touch 5th generation to the internet via ad-hoc from my windows 7 laptop. My iPod was connected to the internet but just in a moment. Then it disconnects. I tried so many other option such as creating another ad-hoc from other laptop but still the same result. Is there something wrong with my iPod? this is so frustrating. I've been using ipod touch 4th gen before I got the 5th and connecting to the internet via ad-hoc was never a problem for me. Would someone help me?

i have mainstage 3 installed and works 1oo% when connected to the battery, but when connecting to the mains for charging the program crashes. sounds do not obey. is one, even very bad horrible latency.
and I need to work on music not only in time but the battery after that.
I ask for help pleaseThanks for the swift reply, I have been looking online and a loose plug seems to be somewhat of an issue with many, I hope mine is actually a problem and not what others are experiencing.

Do you have an iPad 3 as well? And is yours not experiencing any issues close to mine?
Thanks again! -

My mail account is set up properly, I can connect to the Internet, but I cannot get mail from the Mail app on my iPad.
Hello echo1946
Start with the first article to troubleshoot the issue of not getting mail on your iPad. When you get online using safari, check to see if you can log into webmail. Also keep in mind, depending on the account that mail sometimes might not come in if it is a POP account as it may have already been download elsewhere.

I have managed to resolve it. What I found is I typed in a wrong password when one app loaded. That app gave a misleading network connectivity error. Other apps are connecting fine now.
