After Upgrading to Mac Os X 10.6 (SNOW LEOPARD) Internet is half-deading

Yeah, i know this is a known topic, i'm stuck here 2h researching that.
I still couldn't find a fix on it.
I'm using facebook as a test site, because it isn't connecting to facebook anymore
But i'm still able to visit some sites, including here and Mail/MSN
Anyway i tried switching my DNS/DHCP/IP
I tried Upgrading (combo pack) to 10.6.5
Tried Fixing my permissions...
I just don't know what to do anymore,
This was my first disapointment with Apple,
and i'm really ****** off.
Other Information:
I checked on my modem status, and it seems "ATM" is not working properly...
I barely know what that means, but i need help!

Sounds like you have been through some of the posts. In summary here is what I have found in those posts. Two new ones are to Zap your Pram and reset your SMC (items 7 and 8). I can provide a longer description of any or all of these items if needed. In your case since you can get to some sites and not others I suggest searching these boards for that problem separate from a wifi issue.
Fixes known to have solved the problem to posters on this board
1. Verify that there are no interfering signals (other WiFi units and portable phones or microwave ovens). Change channels regardless as you can't “see” outside inference
2. Repair permissions – directions at http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1452.
3. If you have WEP security change your security to WPA or WPA2
4. Delete Keychain password for your wifi router or create a new password on your router
5. Network Prefs - Edit your wifi location (remove airport and re-install) OR create a completely new location.
6. Look for conflicting out of date or beta software (Peer Guardian, Parallels and VMFusion known issues, Sophos antivirus)
Thing that are recommended, not yet confirmed
7. Reset your PRAM– directions at http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1379.
8. Reset your SMC – directions at http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3964. This was suggested by Small Dog Tech Tails for many problems
9. Network Prefs - get a new DHCP lease
10. Network Prefs – disable Ipv6
11. Delete network preference files
12. Manually enter your ISP DNS IP addresses in Network Preference
13. Be sure your router firmware is up to date
14. Make sure there are no IP conflicts with other devices (change from standard DHCP to static or MAC assigned IP addresses).
15. See if you have country code issues with your router seeing a non US router header (using Console log file below)
Troubleshooting tips to help isolate the problem:
16. Grab a Console log and post the results here
17. Set up ping to continuously poll the router as a temporary fix
18. Create a new user and set up wifi for that user as a fresh start (this might be a solution as well)
19. Report bug to Apple - http://developer.apple.com/bugreporter/
You have to sign up to be a "developer" but it is free.

  • Caught in a conundrum while trying to upgrade a Mac Mini (mid 2010) from Snow Leopard to Mountain Lion

    Hi gang,
    I am in a very frustrating position as I try to upgrade my Mac Mini (mid 2010) from OS X 10.6.8 Snow Leopard to whatever the latest version of Mountain lion is. The reason I am doing this is because the original hard drive died and the Mini sat there for 6 months before we decided to get a new hard drive and revive it.
    I installed a new 500GB 7200rpm SATA drive and the problems began.
    First I couldn't get Mountain Lion installed as a fresh OS installation (using both a USB drive and a DVD to no avail). It just wouldn't go. The grey Apple logo/loading screen would come up and just sit there doing nothing while the loading icon spun.
    I then tried installing Snow Leopard (the OS that the Mini came with when it was new). After some messing around, that got done.
    However, a peculiar thing happens when the Mini boots. Everything loads up into Snow Leopard, but although the mouse curser moves, I cannot click on anything or use the keyboard for 4-5 minutes. Then it just work (I am typing this on the Mini). This happens every time.
    Now, when I updated to 10.6.8, I was able to load up the App Store and download the Mountain Lion install app. I clicked it and went through the initial copying of files and then the restart, but after the reboot, the grey loading screen would not progress. I rebooted again and held down the Option key to check out the available boot volumes, and all I saw was the installation DVD I had in there for Snow Leopard and a hard disk volume called "Mac OS X Installer."
    So I booted into the Snow Leopard install DVD and opened Disk Utility to check things out. I did a verify disk and a permissions repair. Interestingly, the first repair I did gave me the message that the ACL was missing from Volumes and that is was fixed. I read something somewhere which talked about the Access Control List and mouse/keyboard issues. But who knows. When I boot back into the Mini as normal I am returned to the fully-functioning Snow Leopard installation, like nothing happened.
    And now here is the kicker: it appears that the Firewire bus is hooped. In the Profiler, when I view the FireWire settings I get the message, "Warning: Unable to list FireWire devices." So I am pretty sure the one thing I cannot do is boot the Mini into target disk mode attached to my Mac Pro and installed Mountain Lion that way.
    So to recap: I can't finish the Mountain Lion installation because the install won't continue after rebooting because there is something wrong with the underlying base system, which might be hardware (FW bus) related. I think.
    Some things I have tried:
    Resetting the SMC
    Resetting the PRAM
    Reparing permissions
    Booting into Safe Mode (doesn't work)
    Booting into Verbose Mode to observe what happens (I get the "Can't load the Bootcache.playlist" error, which I suspect is related to the screwed up FW bus)
    Trying to boot using Internet Recovery (doesn't work)
    Booting into Single User Mode and attempting the "fsck -y" etc. sequence to try and repair the ACL that way
    So I am stuck.
    I guess the question is, should I get an external HD enclosure and install Mountain Lion onto the hard drive that way and hope it works when I put it back into the Mini?
    Any other ideas? I have spent a couple days ******* around with this is am running out of ideas...
    Any advice would be appreciated!

    Addendum: I read on a post here (http://forums.macrumors.com/showthread.php?t=420169) about removing some kext files in order to trick OSX into thinking that there were no FireWire ports.
    I followed the instructions and removed from /System/Library/Extensions/ the following files:
    IOFireWireSerialBusProtocolTransport.kext
    IOFireWireAVC.kext
    IOFireWireFamily.kext
    IOFireWireIP.kext
    IOFireWireSBP2.kext
    I restarted and BAM...Snow Leopard booted crazy fast and the mouse and keyboard worked instantly.
    The System Profiler says "No FireWire ports were found."
    So this tells me that the FW port is probably the culprit and is messing up the installation.
    So how do I hack the Mountain Lion installer and tell it to ignore the FW port, which is obviously quite dead? Or is there something I can do to the Base system that is similar?

  • After upgrade to mountain lion a hd with snow leopard will not boot and run the MBP

    Upgraded MacBook Pro to 10.8.2. Works fine. Swapped out the internal hard drive with 10.8.2 on it, put in the old hard drive with 10.6.8 and booted up as per usual. Mac fires up but dos not finish the boot process and it leaves me with an on and off pulsating gray folder that has a question mark on it. I have tried a brand new drive with a new 10.6.8 installed and it misbehaves the same way.
    Does the Apple store upgrade process alter the internal MacBook Pro or its software in any way? I was not, am not aware of such software. I want to be able to carry along two hard drives, swappable, with different OSX and applications when I go out to help people out of their problems. Something I have done successfully for the past 15 years - free of charge, I might add.
    This is the first time that I am stumped. I am not a programmer btw.
    Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated. Meanwhile I shall keep on muckng about.

    Your problem is that your old HD is no longer blessed. if you can, connect both drives at  the smae time, then
    First, open the “Startup Disk” preference pane and select “Mac OS X” as the operating system to boot. This will re-bless your Mac OS X volume on the older install.
    No need to delete or zero the drive at all.

  • I have Acrobat 7.0 updated to 7.1.4 which surprising no longer works after upgrading my mac os

    I have Acrobat 7.0 updated to 7.1.4 which surprising no longer works after upgrading my mac operating system to OS 10.8.5 (mountain lion), and gives an err message that system no longer supports PPc applications. I guess Acrobat 7 is a PPc application and wanted to know if there is any work-forward here to be able to keep using this product? I didn't see this coming.

    There may be parts of it that work if the MAC is anything like the PC. I have been able to get AA 7 to partially work on a Win7, 64-bit machine, but several work-arounds are required. The biggest one is the installation of a PS print driver and such. So, can you open Acrobat and/or Distiller? Do they seem to function? If so, there may be some workarounds. Otherwise you probably need to purchase AA XI. Actually, I would recommend purchasing the newer version anyway -- just trying to give you a picture of what might be possible.
    When you say it no longer works it is not clear what you mean. You may need to clarify and also indicated if you have tried repairing the installation and such. I can't say a lot more since I am not really familiar with the MAC.

  • Can't view Camera RAW files in Bridge or Photoshop CS4 after upgrading to Mac Mavericks X OS.

    After upgrading my Mac operating system to Mavericks X I can no longer view Camera RAW images on either Bridge or Photoshop CS4!
    I'd already fixed the issue of not even being able to launch Photoshop by installing Apple's Java applet, but this doesn't seem to have helped with the Camera RAW situation.
    I've tried invoking "Update" in both Bridge and Photoshop, and both indicate there are no updates.
    I even went to Adobe's Camera RAW area, and downloaded and installed the Camera RAW plugin specifically for my cameras (Canon 5D Mk ii) and Photoshop CS4, and that hasn't helped at all!
    I feel that it's just another silly Java applet, but I haven't any idea how to proceed from here!
    HELP!
    Thank you,
    Bob

    Did you download and install the camera raw 5.7 update?
    Adobe - Photoshop : For Macintosh : Camera Raw 5.7 update
    There are also other updates you should install, such as 11.0.2 for photoshop and the bridge output module update, if you need them.

  • After upgrading to MAC OS X 10.10.2 Lightroom 5 has an error that it cannot read the card when trying to import photos.  The card is fine as I can import into iPhoto so any ideas?

    After upgrading to MAC OS X 10.10.2 Lightroom 5 cannot read the card (RAW files , converting to DNG) when importing.  The card is fine as I can import into iPhoto - any ideas?

    It’s usually necessary to trash the prefs after updating OSX to Yosemite. Start by quitting Lightroom 5.
    Launch Finder and click the Go menu whilst holding down the Option (alt) key. Then go to:
    Library >> Preferences
    clear everything relating to LR5 which usually means deleting the following files:
    com.adobe.Lightroom5.plist

  • Unable to find bootcamp in control panel after upgrade to Mac OS X 10.6.8, please help.

    Unable to find bootcamp after upgrade tp Mac OS X 10.6.8, please help.

    you problem is in OS X (guessing here)
    Guess #2: you use an NTFS driver in Mac OS X
    Try OS X forum? No?
    When you do reboot into Windows - use Option key for one - and go to Windows Control Panel: Boot Camp: the Startup Disk section to change the default OS is there and works.
    It isn't "boot camp" it is Windows. Boot Camp are drivers, control panel, program to partition. What you wanted to see was "Windows" OS to change the default.
    Do you 'see' Windows volume on the Desktop as being physically there?
    Opened Disk Utility and look at the drives and volumes: Windows volumne is still present.
