Anybody here successfully connect PlayStation 3 to iMac wirelessly?

I have internet sharing turned on. I have my wireless network set up using the iMac's built-in Airport Extreme Card. My PS3 can find my wireless network and it can obtain the IP address but it can not communicate with the server due to a DNS error.
Sony and Apple support could not help me. You all are my only hope. I know it can be done. I just need to find someone who has done it and is able to explain it to me.
Thanks for any help.

Sharing your Internet connection
If your computer is connected to the Internet, you can share its connection with other computers on your local network.
For example, if your computer is connected to the Internet using a DSL modem and has an AirPort Card installed, you can share the DSL connection with other AirPort-equipped computers.
On Windows computers, sharing your Internet connection is sometimes referred to as a "network bridge," or 'bridging your network."
1. Open System Preferences, click Sharing, and then click Internet.
2. Choose a network port from the "Share your connection from" pop-up menu.
3. Select "Built-in Ethernet" or AirPort depending on which computers will share your Internet connection.
4. If you have turned on the firewall on the Firewall pane of Sharing preferences, you also need to turn on Personal Web Sharing on the Services pane of Sharing preferences in order to share your Internet connection and allow computers connected to your Internet connection to browse the web.
IMPORTANT: If your Internet connection and your local network use the same port (built-in Ethernet, for example), investigate possible side effects before you turn on Internet sharing. In some cases (if you use a cable modem, for example) you might unintentionally affect the network settings of other ISP customers, and your ISP might terminate your service to prevent you from disrupting their network.

  • Has anybody here successfully used a zen micro with mac

    I called customer service and received a noncommittal "we'll take it back if it doesn't work". I am a mac user (I do graphics and have been using Apple computers for years) but I really don't want an ipod. Please tell me if anybody has tried it!

    I'm guessing it won't work as it uses specific drivers.
    You could try using a program that others have used with the Zen, which is written by a very kind guy for free. If it doesn't work maybe he'll add support for the Micro also http://www.wentnet.com/projects/xnjb/index.html

  • Connect PCs to iMac wirelessly - novice here

    Can you point me to information on how to setup a home network using my connected (via cable provider) iMac? I want 2 Windows PCs with wireless cards to connect to my iMac (via the built-in airport extreme in the iMac) and would like to do so with both firewall and wireless security enabled.
    My first question is will the iMac do this without a separate wireless router (e.g. Linksys)?
    My second question is where can I find the steps showing me how - I admittedly get lost in network names, WEP keys, etc.

    This site is awsome in walking you through a network setup. http://www.ifelix.co.uk/tech/3020.html

  • Anyone have any success connecting a generic PS3 controller through Mavericks on my macbook pro

    Hi
    I am able to connect the above controllers and play supported games via USB connection. However, bluetooth does not seemingly support these devices of which I have 2.
    I have followed connection guidance for earlier versions of OSX and connect via USB to recognise the device and then remove the usb cable, press the PS button and the device is prompted to pair via bluetooth. I am using a password of "0000" to pair and key this in to my macbook but then nothing happens. The device is shown as not connected, nor paired and the "connect" option has no effect.

    Anybody have any success with such a bluetooth connection .....so much better without cables after all ?
    I did read one forum post indicating that one user had cloned a working PS3 controller and copying and pasting configuration data in terminal. As I don't currently have a controller that will pair that's a step too far for me.
    Thanks in anticipation

  • What cable do I need to connect my 27 inch iMac to my Cinema Display

    What cable do I need to connect my 27 inch iMac to my Cinema Display to have two displays?

    It depends on what type(s) of video input you have on your TV. If you've an open HDMI port on your TV, you can use a Thunderbolt (Mini DisplayPort) to HDMI adapter and it will carry the sound also. See -> here.
    Good luck,

  • How do i get a wifi connection between iphone and iMac?

    I downloaded the app "CityMaps2Go". Some of the maps I need are bigger than 20MB and Apple doesn't allow to download that amount over a regular 3G telephone connection. "CityMaps2Go" is asking me to connect via Wifi to download bigger maps. But I have no Wifi right now here at home available. My iMac runs with DSL6000 from Deutsche Telekom (High Speed Internet). Even tough my router has WLAN available, it is not konfigured for Apple hardware (I guess, never worked) But the Internet connection for my iMac is very fast, so no problem there. Here my question: While my iMac is online and connected, can I somehow connect my iphone via wifi to my iMac, so I can download those bigger maps from "CityMaps2Go"??? Thank you!

    Just download the updates via iTunes on your Mac and then sync your iPhone to update them.
    You cannot simply create a Wi-Fi connection between your computer and your iPhone, you must have a Wi-Fi router or access point to connect to.

  • Cisco Anytime Connect VPN working from iMac but not from MacBook Air with same settings and wifi network

    Hi guys,
    I'm having trouble connecting my new MacBook Air to Cisco Anytime Connect VPN.
    The same configuration works with my iMac, in the same network and same Mac OS Mountain Lion on both computers.
    After successfully connecting to VPN after a few seconds it gets disconnected and, what is worse, WIFI is not working any more in my macBook Air, I need to deactivate it and start again.
    With iMac with the same settings it doesn't happen.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks!

    Did you power cycle the network? That's always the first thing you want to do if a device is "missing" or not connecting to your network correctly.
    If you have not already tried this a few times, power down the entire network...all devices, order is not important.
    Wait a few minutes and place the MBAir close to the TC
    Start the modem first and let it run a few moments by itself. Then start the TC if it is the device connected to the modem and let it run a few moments. Then start each device one at a time the same way.

  • [SOLVED]Wifi almost instantly dropping out after successful connection

I was using wicd, but switched to netctl and I'm getting exactly the same issue. Wired is unaffected and works perfectly. I only have this issue with Arch, Windows seems fine.

    The dhcpcd fails even though I'm successfully connected via wired connection, can I disable that if I'm using netctl?

    Don't run both netctl and dhcpd service for the same interface.  Netctl will invoke dhcpcd when it needs it.  The dhcpcd service will fight with netctl.

Then I removed her as an invitee and it did not remove the event from her iPhone. So now she has a event on her iPhone that is not on either her iCloud or iCal. How do I remove it from her iPhone?

    1) You asked "Does she need to reconnect to that itunes/computer and if so what do we need to do to remove this folder of pics from her ipod?" Yes, you have to connect the iPod to that computer and go to the Photos pane for the iPod in iTunes and uncheck sync photos and the click on synce/apply. In the future do not check sync photos.
    iOS and iPod: Syncing photos using iTunes
    2)
    Create a NEW account for using these instructions. Make sure you follow the instructions. Many do not and if you do not you will not get the None option. You must use an email address that you have not used with Apple before.
    Creating an iTunes Store, App Store, iBookstore, and Mac App Store account without a credit card
    Then on the iPod go to

  • Connecting Laserwriter 320 to iMac OSX

    I have a new iMac with OSX that I have successfully connected to my old Laserwriter 320 via an adapter that converts the "phone" jack into an ethernet jack, which then goes into the iMac. It prints just fine when I am offline.
    My internet connection is wireless.
    So, this means that the printer, which works over the ethernet, is only avail able when I am offline.
    My question...(finally!)
    Can the Laserwriter 320 be converted to a USB, Firewire or wireless connection?
    Thank you,
    Tom G L

    Tom,
    This solution may be totally unworkable for you, but then again...
    You say "The printer is old, but it works well and it's a postscript laser, which would be pricey to replace."
    I just came home from the Washington State University surplus store auction. There were two LW 360s on the store shelves for over a year. Price? $35.00 a piece. Whay didn't I buy them? Because they were also selling LW 16/600 network capable printers for $25.00. I quit at ten - figured two per bedroom was enough. : )
    So what about the 360s? They were finally put into a batch of printers to be auctioned off, including a Textronix Phaser color printer. Winning bid was $2.50 - I did not bid against the guy, I just asked what he was interested in. All he wanted was a box of ADB mice to sell on eBay for $5 a piece. Price of the 360 printers, Phaser laser and 50 ADB keyboards was free if I would haul the rest of his two pallets off for him.
    Moral is, for over a year everyone had the chance to buy those printers for $35. Chicago is a big enough town to have one or two university surplus options and maybe even a recycling center. If you like your 320, look for another. Then when one decides to quit some day, the toner cartridge will move right over to the other one and keep on printing.
    My $.02 worth, and you know I am a big spender.
    Jim
