Some of my Mac apps can´t connect to the internet, while Firefox can

All of a sudden, Safari, ITunes, Software Update, can´t connect to the internet. It happens in my office and in my house. Have not checked other networks. Firefox wors fine, as does Mail (for now). What can be the problem?

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
Step 1
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
Enable guest logins and log in as Guest. For instructions, launch the System Preferences application, select Help from the menu bar, and enter “Set up a guest account” (without the quotes) in the search box.
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
As Guest, test. Same problem(s)?
After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
Step 2
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
Be sure your Mac is shut down.
Press the power button.
Immediately after you hear the startup tone, hold the Shift key. The Shift key should be held as soon as possible after the startup tone, but not before the tone.
Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple icon and the progress indicator (looks like a spinning gear).
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on some Macs.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem(s)?
After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode.) Post the results of steps 1 and 2.

Apple TV apps can't connect to the internet

So my Apple TV is connected to the internet (Movies, TV shows, Airplay, etc. all work), but 3rd party apps like netflix, hulu plus, and WSJ can't connect. They get to various stages of logging in, but then go to a black screen saying something like "Accessing <app name>", and hang there as long as I let it.
Any ideas?
BTW, the ATV is connected via ethernet, if that is a factor at all.

As backwards and dumb as I know this sounds try using a WiFi connection. There is an odd bug after the last two updates that can cause eithernet connection problems with some network setups.

Flex app can't connect to the internet / server when uploaded?

I made a simple app that submits a data via POST using the HTTPService. My problem is, when I Run the application from the Flash Builder IDE, and it opens in the browser as a local file, it interacts with my server (remote server) without any problem and does its job well. However, when I upload it to my website, it fails to interact. It displays on the status bar of Firefox that it's connecting to the server that requires interaction but after some time the status reverts to "Done" with my Flex app not showing any Alert boxes if it either succeeded or failed.
It's really making me frustrated not knowing what's wrong..
Also if it would be an added help, I decided to use the Flex 3.5 SDK to make it more compatible with commonly installed Flash Players on people's computers since the features that I used doesn't really need those of 4.0.

Contact the app developer and ask... That's an XML error on the host.

I put the BT WiFi app on my iPad Mini and now I can't connect to the internet. Please help

I put the Bt WiFi app on my iPad Mini and now I can't connect to the internet. Please Help

Some things to try first:
1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
    •    Launch Settings app
    •    Tap on Wi-Fi
    •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
    •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.
Some Wi-Fi losses may stem from a problematic interaction between Wi-Fi and cellular data connections. Numerous users have found that turning off Cellular Data in Settings gets their Wi-Fi working again.
You may have many apps open which can possibly cause the slowdown and possibly the loss of wifi. In iOS 4-6 double tap your Home button & at the bottom of the screen you will see the icons of all open apps. Close those you are not using by pressing on an icon until all icons wiggle - then tap the minus sign. For iOS 7 users, there’s an easy way to see which apps are open in order to close them. By double-tapping the home button on your iPhone or iPad, the new multitasking feature in iOS 7 shows full page previews of all your open apps. Simply scroll horizontally to see all your apps, and close the apps with a simple flick towards the top of the screen.

Try changing the channel in use in case you're getting interference.
If you have WEP enabled on the Internet Sharing it'ss worth disabling it whilst troubleshooting the connectivity issues.

Does my problem has anything to do with SSL for mail settings? Cause when I tried re-adding it says something that I should try without SSL, and I did what you said and it gives me this "The IMAP server pop.mail.yahoo.com is not responding. Check your network connection and that you entered the correct information in the incoming mail server field". Ahh.. this is so annoying, Apple what are you doing to me?! Or is Yahoo doing this to me?!
Thank you for your time. Sorry it doesn`t work.

On the wireless networks that your Mac has had trouble connecting to, do you know which Wireless Security type (WEP, WPA, or WPA2) is being used?
If it is WEP, one of the problems is that the actual standard relies on a 10 character HEX key for 40bit WEP and a 26 character HEX key for 128bit WEP. In order to make things easier, vendors use certain algorithms to convert simple alphanumeric passwords (or passphrases) into HEX keys, thus enabling the use of simple easy to remember WEP password rather than lengthy HEX keys. The problem is that different vendors use different algorithms to generate the HEX key and therefore a ASCII password on an AEBS will be hashed differently on a non-Apple client and vice versa. You may find the following Apple Support article helpful.

Help! All my apps no longer connect to the internet

When I am logged into my user account on my macbook pro, all of my apps can no longer access the internet, safari, mail, skype etc etc
I thought it was just Safari, so I deleted plist file, but it is all my apps that are not connecting. Safari gives error cannot connect to server....
It is not a network problem, wi-fi is connected fine. Other devices connected etc It was working fine last night, and now today nothing works
The weird thing is that I can connect to internet using safari in my guest account (which I am doing right now!)
Do I have some kind of virus? I thought macs were immune from them!!
Any help please!!!

The weird thing is that I can connect to internet using safari in my guest account (which I am doing right now!)
Doubtful it's a virus. And when you post for help, please tell us which Mac OS X you have installed. Sometimes troubleshooting is based on that information.
Try a different DNS server.
Open System Preferences / Preferences then select the Network tab. Click the Advanced tab then click the DNS tab.
Click +
Enter these addresses exactly as you see them here.
208.67.222.222
Click +
208.67.220.220
Then click OK.
Quit then relaunch Safari to test.
If that didn't help, if you have anti virus software installed, disable that.
If you have an app called Little Snitch installed, that can prevent apps from connecting to servers.

Some Apps won't connect to the internet

Dear All:
I am having some strange behavior. Some of my Apps will not connect to the internet, while others have no problem. Sometimes this happens for a few days and then things are all right, and then it starts again.
Today, for example, the Google Mail App, says that it can't connect to the internet and to retry. Retrying doesn't help. I removed and reinstalled the App and it didn't help.
If I go to gmail.com on Safari, I have no problem.
There are other Apps like this, that won't work from the desktop, but do work from Safari.
So I assume that there is some different way Safari and Apps go to the internet. I have no firewalls on my modem.
If anyone has any suggestions, I would greatly appreciate hearing.
Thank you.

Try resetting your network settings.

After downloading IOS 8.0.2 I can not connect to the internet, any solutions?

After downloading IOS 8.0.2 I can not connect to the internet, any solutions?

It is not the wording but the lack of detail.
The iPhone connects to both the phone network (3G, LTE, etc) and to WiFi networks. Which one (or both) are you having issues with?
If it is the phone network, go to Settings->Cellular and see if Cellular data is turned on globally AND for the apps you wish to use.
If it is a WiFi network, go to Settings->Wi-Fi and see if you are connected to a network. If so, touch the circled "i" next to the network name and see that you have a valid IP address, etc. (take a screen shot and post it if you don't know what to look for).

Applications can't connect to the Internet

I just updated my software to iOS 6 and now can't connect to the internet

I just updated my Ipad 2 to iOS6 and now can't connect to the internet. Is anyone else having similar problems?

Swipe up or drag up on the app window to close the app.

After update I can't connect to the internet in no way, shape or form

I rarely update because: 1) something always breaks when you update (like now) and 2) I don't like to deal with new crap like GNOME 3. Anyway:
I bought a new router (TL-WR1043N) and configured it with an old Ubuntu because connecting to 192.168.1.1 didn't work on any of my Arch Linux installations. Now... here's where it all starts... I can't use the 'n' wireless on my laptop since I have to install something to use WPA, and to install that I need to update, but I don't want to deal with GNOME 3 and Firefox >3. But I gave up eventually gave up and connected my laptop to the router by Ethernet cable. Setting that up was very easy: 'ifconfig eth0 up; dhcpcd'. Voila! I updated my whole system and restarted. To see how badly I damaged my system I opened Nautilus (I use Openbox with some GNOME programs): shock and dismay, the fonts are visible from the moon. I guess I'll have to quit using GNOME programs completely now but I expected that. I used to use KDE back in the day and when KDE4 came forth from that unholy pit, I immediately abandoned it for GNOME. This time we had more time to prepare, everybody knew what GNOME 3 was going to be. I started using Openbox quite a long time ago.
Anyway: Now to fix my wireless right? WRONG! I can't connect to the internet on cable to get the packages for wireless. I installed Windows 7 64 on the same laptop and it connects to the cable. Ubuntu 9.10 Live also connects, but due to the changes of rc.conf and network stuff I can't connect at all with Arch Linux.
So I decided to abandon it completely and reinstall from scratch. But the Live CD also doesn't work. With all the ways I've tried it all comes down to this:
dhcpcd always times out waiting for a carrier and 'ip addr' shows 'eth0: <NO-CARRIER, ....' if the interface is up. I'm not sure what information I should give you, but I can't paste any here since I can't connect to the damn internet on that laptop.
About the router: the cable is plugged on port 1 and the LED for it flashes if I reboot the computer. In Windows it stops flashing while it connects and flashes again when connected. I removed 'network' from DAEMONS and it flashes till I start it with '/etc/rc.d/network start'. This hangs for a while and returns '[DONE]' even though it doesn't work and the LED never flashes again on the router.
In rc.conf I have exactly what the example says for DHCP. In any case, it doesn't work with the Live CD either.
EDIT 1: From lscpi: painstakingly typed:
06:00.0 Network controller: Intel Corporation PRO/Wireless 4965 AG or AGN [Kedron] Network Connection (rev 61)
07:00.0 Ethernet controller: Realtek Semiconducctor Co., Ltd. RTL8111/8168B PCI Express Gigabit Ethernet controller (rev 01)
EDIT 2: Just to be clear: I can use the wireless on the laptop on the Live CD, but I want to use the cable because of the greater speed (94Mbit/s on cable 60 something on wireless n, 20 something on g) and because I rarely move the laptop.
EDIT 3: lspci -v shows "Kernel driver in use: r8169 / Kernel modules: r8169", so the driver is loaded.
EDIT 4: So if I boot from the CD. ip addr shows:
eth: <BROADCAST,MULTICAST> mtu 1500 qdisc noop state DOWN qlen 1000
link/ether 00:1d:92:...etc... brd ff:ff:ff:ff:ff:ff
And the LED flashes. When I type: "ifconfig eth0 up" it stops, never to light up again and ip addr shows: "eth: <nO-CARRIER,BROADCAST,MULTICAST,UP> mtu 1500 qdisc pfifo_fast state DOWN qlen 1000
Last edited by imtired (2011-09-08 12:36:51)

When you're in Arch, use output redirection
lspci >lspci.out
then boot into Ubuntu or something where you can access the files and the BBS, Of course, don't forget to use a new file for each command output.
The new network config in rc.conf is not that complicated (wired anyway; never used wireless). OTOH I've had issues on two machines where I have to restart the network daemon (rc.d restart network) or rerun netcfg (netcfg eth0) after boot to get connectivity. And I still haven't come to grips with the ip command.

Safari 5.1.1 can't connect to the internet. Every other browser can.

I've tried resetting Safari, reinstalling Safari, and resetting my router to factory settings. Safari still can't connect to the internet, but everything else on my Mac (Snow Leopard 10.6.8) can.
I recently tried setting up Open DNS just because I've had problems with Comcast lately. But I've since returned DNS to be detected automatically.
Thoughts?
