    my ipod touch 4th gen shows 3 bars of connectivity but will not load on internet-required apps

    Does the iOS device connect to other networks?
    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
    .- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings

    - Wi-Fi: Unable to connect to an 802.11n Wi-Fi network       
    - iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
    - Restore from backup. See:
    iOS: How to back up
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    If still problem make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

    HI,
    Try installing the v10.6.3 Combo Update
    Then repair disk permissions.
    aunch Disk Utility. (Applications/Utilities) Select MacintoshHD in the panel on the left, select the FirstAid tab. Click: Repair Disk Permissions. When it's finished from the Menu Bar, Quit Disk Utility and restart your Mac. If you see a long list of "messages" in the permissions window, it's ok. That can be ignored. As long as you see, "Permissions Repair Complete" when it's finished... you're done. Quit Disk Utility and restart your Mac.

  • Unity Connection Admin Page Not Loading

    Cisco Unity Connection version: 8.5.1ES16.11900-16     
    Running HA.
    My publisher's gui loads just fine. However if I try to load the subs i get the servers error page:
    HTTP Status 404 -
    type: Status report
    message:
    description: The requested resource () is not available.           
    Also when I go to services on the admin page and drop the menu down to that server I get no available. In the cluster menu I see the server defined.
    I can SSH into the box and the servcies appear to be running just fine. Is there a way to tell why the admin page is not loading?

    Have you tried restarting the Tomcat service on the secondary server? This can be done via the CLI.
         utils service restart Cisco Tomcat

  • FF says "done" but page not loaded

    Occasionally, when I open FF pages will not load including the home page. The "done" message appears at the bottom, but the page is not loaded. If I type a URL in and try to go to that page, the same thing happens. I must restart my computer to correct the issue. Once I do that, it is fine and it may be a few days before it happens again.

    Welcome Ben Harris
    The disk will not play and if I look at it I can tell only a very small portion has been written.
    Two items are suspect....available HD space, and the media you are currently using. Please tell us about both.
    I recommend no less than 20GB's in addition to using Verbatim/Maxell DVD-R and burning from a disc image at 4x or slower using apple's Disc Utilities or Roxio Toast. Is this what you are doing?
    Please also drag and drop the plist for iDVD to the trash (empty the trash) Then Restart ther computer. Use the Finder to locate this item and drag it to the trash:

  • Pages not Loading-HELP! Going crazy here!

    I cannot figure this out to save my life. I cannot create a link that works from one page to the next. I mean the link works but you don't see anything. The page comes up black. On the Highlight page you can hear the film playing in the back but can't see anything.
    I tried changing the Photoshop made pages from PNG files to Jpeg Files. Didn't work. I tried re-publishing everything. Didn't work. I tried re-creating the entire site. Didn't work. I tried saving the PNG files interlaced then not. Didn't work. I can't figure this out and it is starting to bug me. I want to get this new site up and going. Take a look at it and help if you can. Thanks.

    Take a look at it and help if you can.
    Easier to do if you provide the url.

  • Web Pages not loading on Mobile Devices

    Browsing web pages not working on mobile devices
    I have bt inifinity 2, from my laptop and mac (with same wifi connection) webpages load no problem, from my android tablet and iphone (with same wifi connection) web pages not loading. On these devices I can load youtube videos, and apps have connections/load data, it seems to be limited just to browsing webpages.
    I have tried changing ssid for the 2 channels, I have tried disabling wifi on the router, and using apple time capsule as the router, everything seems to result in the same problem, you cannot browse web pages on mobile devices.
    previously i had adsl from bt and didnt have these issues.

  • I can make a WiFi connection but pages will not load. WiFi works for a laptop using windows

    I can make a WiFi connection but pages will not load.  WiFi works ok on a laptop using Windows.  I have reset the WiFi settings but this makes no difference.

    Thanks, Linc, but  that almost helped:
    Because the retina 15 only has a wifi connection (no ethernet), that's the connection I'm stuck with for the notebook. But on the 27iMac, I did have both ethernet and wifi enabled. When I turned the wifi off on the 27, therer was a brief moment when both computers were showing their counterparts when I tried to make a network connection. BUT, after a few seconds of 'searching', the computer I was trying to connect to disappeared from the Network list.
    So I tried the opposite; the retina can only connect thru wifi, so that's a given. I swithched my ethernet off and then enabed the wifi on the 27 and ....same thing: When I try a network connection, there are a few seconds of 'searching', then the ony option I'm left with is share screen, which doesn't work either.
    I've read the 'dropped' network is a problem with the retina, but the odd thing is that I never lose my internet connection—that continues to work fine, as does Air Drop—but I can't seem to connect, network-wise.
    Any ideas about the dropped network?

  • Xv6800 wifi connected but pages do not load error?

    we just got verizon fios wifi in our house and my xv6800 phone is connected but pages dont want to load? ive also entered the code from the router? ive used wifi before with this phone and works perfect?

    As long as you are connecting to the right router (check SSID) and are inputting the encryption key okay (WEP default) it should work fine, nothing else needed. Maybe try a router reboot/reset if it's still giving a trouble.

    Do a factory reset .. nothing will be deleted from your backups and you will be able to get access to them again.
    The Factory Reset Gen1-4.
    Unplug your TC. Hold in reset. and power the TC back on.. without releasing reset for about 10sec. When the status light flashes rapidly; release it.
    Be Gentle! Feel the switch click on. It has a positive feel..  add no more pressure after that.
    TC will reboot after a couple of minutes with default factory settings and will wipe out previous configurations.
    No files are deleted on the hard disk.. No reset of the TC deletes files.. to do that you use erase from the airport utility.

    That page's troubleshooting for the "Filter failed" message worked out. I consulted the Wiki before but never found that exact page. I guess I didn't use the best search criteria. Thanks for pointing it out.

  • I'll ask this again.  I'm running Yosemite, LR 4.4 everything was running fine and I'm not sure if this is connected but when I loaded the last security update from Apple I started getting the "no content" box when I tried to publish to LR (Facebook OK),

    I'll ask this again.  I'm running Yosemite, LR 4.4 everything was running fine and I'm not sure if this is connected but when I loaded the last security update from Apple I started getting the "no content" box when I tried to publish to Flickr (Facebook OK), now I can't get it to authorize, I loaded 3rd party JR plug in and still get can't authorize.  Can anybody help?  Basically LR is useless, it has been nothing but problems.

    It would probably be better to continue your previous thread on the same question than to start a new one.
