AE connects iTouch but not iMac.

Don't know what happened because it was working before. My iMac G5 works with an ethernet connection via a hub or directly to the router, but not with Airport Express. Over the past few days, I've tried everything I can think of repeatedly (e.g., resetting each unit, switching ethernet cables, disconnecting all overnight). I can get my G5, G3, Xbox, and AE to simultaneously access the internet via a cheap Dynex ethernet hub while my iTouch wirelessly connects to my ISP. I just can't get the G5 back to working wirelessly. It tells me when I am connected to AE and indicates a strong signal, but it fails to access the ISP. My network administrator says it is an Apple issue, not theirs, which appears to be a logical conclusion.

It's possible your ethernet port is damaged or it's dirty.  Try blowing into the port.  Use a flashlight to check the port for damage.  When was the last time you connected your iMac to the ethernet & it worked?
What you can try w/your ethernet connect to the iMac is to run the diagnostic test.
System Preferences>Network>Ethernet>Assist Me>Diagnostics.  Post the results of the test.

    Never mind, I think. I think I figured it out. There was 1 song (out of > 900!) that somehow had been purchased with the other ID - I have no idea how. Once I deleted that song, it stopped asking.
    There may be something with the newest iTunes version too. I didn't think in older versions that the "On this iPod" list of songs was greyed out. But at least it syncs ok.

    Also, in network preferences, it shows Airport "Not Connected". But I can see my MacBook on the network.

  • Macbook recognizes TC but not IMac

    Hi, my Macbook can complete backups, but the IMac can't see it. When I open time machine preferences on the IMac it only sees my external drive and not the TC. Very strange. Any suggestions will be appreciated.

    Also, in network preferences, it shows Airport "Not Connected". But I can see my MacBook on the network.

  • Express works for 2 laptops but not imac

    Hi - I have Airport Express connected to Motorola cable modem. I have two macbooks both connecting to internet via Airport Express fine. But my iMac doesn't. iMac reports that AirPort is connected to xxx Network and has IP address 10.0.1.3 - the two macbooks show similar though last digit on IP is .2 and .4
    I have tried 'assist me' etc to no avail. Have rebooted iMac, turned AirPort on and off etc but no joy. Any suggestions what to try next

    In the Network panel of System Preferences on the iMac and one of the MacBooks, select the AirPort connection item, click the "Advanced" button, then select the "TCP/IP" tab. Compare the values you see for "Subnet Mask" and "Router". In the "DNS" tab compare the values for "DNS Servers". Any differences could explain why the connection is failing, but not necessarily explain why the values are different.
    You might try resetting your connection settings on the iMac using the steps listed in this message:

    They're not guaranteed to solve the problem, but they'll only take you a minute or so to try.

  • IMessage works on MacBook Pro and iPhone but not iMac

    I am able to send messages via SMS and iMessage on my MacBook Pro and iPhone 5S but not on my iMac.  On the iMac I get "Not Delivered" and "Try Again". I verified that the same iCloud account is being used on all.  I can tell that the iMac and the phone are pairing as I get a message to that effect when I log into the iMac.  All software is up to date 10.10.1 on the Macs and 8.1.2 on the iPhone.
    I have tried logging out of my iCloud account on the iMac and logging back in.  I have tried removing com.appple.imagent.plist from my Library/Preferences and rebooting.  Neither worked though removing the plist file appeared to work but in reality the messages were not being delivered.  Later the behavior went back to giving the error messages.
    I have reported this to Apple but was hoping someone had found a solution.
    This is from the log file when I try to send a message (my iCloud account replaced with xxxxxx, phone number I was texting to replaced with pppppp).

    I look forward to any advice anyone can provide. Thanks.

    Based on information in another answer I tried the following ...
    After doing what blueno suggested I did have to reboot.  I then had to provide my password lots of times when I logged in.  That still didn't work so I logged out of my iCloud account in Message and logged back in, repaired, and it worked!
    This is what I did:
    1) Open Key Chain Access ( go to Applications>Utilities)
    2) Select Login at the top left side under Keychains
    3) Select All Items on the lower left side under Category
    4) Search for entries of IDS.
    5) Highlight and delete all entries that has IDS.
    6) Search for entries of FaceTime
    7) Highlight and delete all entries of FaceTime
    8) Search for entries of Messages (I also found entries containing Message (singular, not plural), but didn't delete these.)
    9) Highlight and delete all entries of Messages
    10) Reboot!
    11) Log back in and when requested log back into iCloud account (I got asked for the password multiple times)
    12) Log out of iCloud account in iMessage (Not sure if this is needed)
    13) Log back into iCloud account in iMessage.
    14) On iPhone in Settings/Messages/Text Message Forwarding turn off forwarding to my iMac.
    15) Turn Text Message Forwarding back on for my iMac (re-pairs and I entered the new number)
    16) Could send text messages from my iMac!!!!!
    But it was short lived.  One message was sent using SMS (that should have gone through using iMessage and then back to the same error message.  So I am back to square one.

  • Hp officejet pro 8600 connected wirelessly but not recognized

    I have an hp officejet 8600 n911a which is connected to my wireless internet. I have run wireless network test results and printer status reports which both show connected. when you touch the internet icon it shows connected also with an ip address. However it will not connect to my computer, ipod, ipad, or any other device to print. The product software will not even ping the device to connect to the printer. It is like it will accept an incoming connection from my router but not send out a connection signal or recieve a signal to print on the same wireless connection. I have verified that it is set up on the same internet connection but the device is not recognized and when I type in the ip address in the address bar of chrome or explorer it says page cannot be opened. However I can email wirelessly to my printer to eprint by using the email given to me by my printer. I am very confused. Any help would be great.

    With the network does the 5Ghz wirless have a different name to the 2Ghz network?
    If they have the same network name then you should change the ssids to be different so then you can tell which networks its on.
    From what you have told me it sounds like a 5Ghz 2 Ghz mismatch

  • Pdf docs will load on MacBook but not iMac

    I have an iMac and a Macbook Air. Both bought in the past three years.  I am running a proprietary back end database which uses a browser as a front end and is Java dependant..  Both have current versions of OS Mavericks, Java, safari and mozilla.  The database contains pdf docs that are displayed with the standard pdf icon.  When I click on the icon in my MacBook, they load into Word or Adobe on a separate page.  When I click on the icons in my iMac they do not load.  Does anyone have and ideas?

    Hi.  Thanks for the quick reply.  I realized I was not clear.  The docs are resumes.  If they are Word docs, they open in Word.  If they are pdf, they open in Adobe Acrobat Pro.  These open fine on my MacBook Pro, but not the iMac.  When I try opening them on the iMac, I get a Java error message.  Any ideas?

  • Albums split up on itouch, but not in itunes.

    when I upload certain albums onto my itouch, one or two songs will be separated into the same album, and album art but not as one whole album.
    I have tried to upload the album again, but the same thing happened.
    This doesn't happen on my ipod classic, so I am wondering if this is a common thing to happen on itouches, or if there is a quick fix to get all the songs sorted onto one album.
    thanks.

    Have you Tried all the 5R's yet? http://www.apple.com/support/ipod/five_rs/ if iTunes isn't recognizing it you might need to restore using the iPod updater.

  • Title overlay works fine on MBP but not imac. Why?

    Hello,
    I have this problem with putting a title into FCPx that happens on my iMac but not on my MacBook Pro.  I am hoping someone in here can explain to me why, and how to fix it.  These are screenshots of the issue on my iMac, as well as screen shots of what it looks like when it's on my MacBook Pro, which is the way it's supposed to look.
    The titles are .mov files with a transparent background.
    iMac view -  This is the original view on my timeline with NO title added 
    iMac view again -  This is the view on my timeline when I put the title over my video on my iMac
    MacBook Pro - It works perfectly on my MacBook Pro as can be seen here.  This is the same exact frame as it is on my iMac.
    FCPx is the most recently updated version on both.  I just really need help with figuring out why it works on my macbook pro, my husband's macbook pro, but not my iMac.  They are all the same version of FCPx.
    Thanks so much,
    K-

    You must be using proxy media on the iMac.
    The ProRes proxy codec does not support an alpha channel, so the transparent parts would be black, as you are getting.

  • Sleep iMac display but not iMac system?

    Hello,
    I have a few new iMacs on our network and I'm not sure how to "turn off" the monitor, but leave the machine running? I would like the users to be able to turn of the display, but leave the machine running so nightly backups can take place. I've only been able to "sleep" the entire system + display, but not sure on how to just "sleep" the display?
    Thanks,
    Kristin.

    Unless someone has come up with a hack of which I'm not yet aware we don't have access to manually sleep only the display.
    In System Prefs/Energy Saver you can adjust the auto sleep settings to your liking. For example you can set the Mac to never sleep, but set the display to auto sleep after a period of inactivity.
    In System Prefs/Desktop & Screensaver you can set a Hot Corner that activates the Screensaver on demand by parking the pointer in the hot corner. After the elasped time of inactivity set in Energy Saver the display will auto sleep.
    If you are concerned about security you can set the Mac to require a password when deactivating the Screensaver or waking the display. You set this with a check box in the System Prefs/Security pane.

  • Can connect to but not administer Airport Extreme

    New problem, just happened today. I can connect to the network I've created and get online (writing this from the affected machine) but not administer the Airport network.
    When I open the Airport Utility, I get nothing in the window at all. I've tried on my other machine, a MacBook Pro running 10.4.9, and can see it. I even tried on an old Mac mini G4 and it can also see and administer.
    This also hurts printing - the machine can't see the base station, so it hangs just looking for it.
    Any ideas?

    Indeed - this is a "g" Airport Extreme, so I've had it for a while. Like I said, the other machines can see it.
    And the problem comes and goes – today I can see the Base Stations, yesterday I could not.

  • I want to buy the camera connection kit but not sure if it will work with my camera it's a Sony dsc w35 can anybody help..

    I want to buy the camera connectivity kit for my iPad 3  but not  sure if it will work with my Sony dsc w35 camera can anybody help.

    That camera does not have an SD card. It uses Sony's Memory Stick™ DUO Media.
    The camera does provide for USB connection, however, some cameras require too much USB power from the iPad. Suggest you take your iPad to a camera store and ask to test it with your iPad.
