Browser not connecting

I have a new Macbook Pro (Retina late 2013)
All of a sudden the browser has stopped connecting to websites the last time I opened up my laptop.
Yes, my internet is working (I have a PC, which connects via wifi just fine). My Mail client still works and downloads email, but Safari & Chrome do not work anymore. I've waited 10 mins and the page connection just times out.
I had logged in as another user, opened up safari and connected successfully for about 2 mins, and then that stopped working.
My wifi is connected. I have checked proxy settings. DHCP hasn't changed. I've rebooted and it still doesn't work. I've rebooted into Windows (Bootcamp) and it works fine, so I know it's 100% a mac issue (I'm writing this from Windows). To tell you I'm not impressed so far is an understatement.
I've changed round my DNS settings and that doesn't work either. Every other device I have connected works fine and continues to work fine, apart from this macbook.
I've done a few searches on this forum, but nothing I've come across seems to work. Any ideas?

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually login 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? After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

Browser not connecting after returning from sleep, but email and imessage working fine

My Browsers are not able to access the Internet after returning from sleep. This effects other browsers (Firefox & Chrome) as well. The connectivity from mail and iMessage is working fine. I am also hardwired and not using WiFi.

I have the same problem since updating to Yosemite, works fine after restarting but once it goes in to sleep it affects email as well as browsers, I have a broadband connection. Also accessing the app store is hit and miss, it's either working or simply not not working.
It also affects other devices trying to connect to the internet over wifi via the airport time capsule, the problems started after installing Yosemite.

Firefox will not connect to anything past my Yahoo homepage

I am using Firefox 4.0 beta. Last night I began having problems with the browser not connecting with anything, including the Mozilla server. I finally gave up and went to bed. This morning the same problem continued, so I used Internet Explorer 8 to connect to the internet (worked fine), and came to this site to report my problem. I have checked my router (brand new) and internet connections and they are all ok. I am using Windows 7 on a Dell Studio 17 laptop. I have recently downloaded Network Magic from Linksys, but have not installed it yet.

BB 9330 - turning off mobile network data services causes BIS WiFi connection to change to not connected

re: v. 6.0.0.719 bundle 3084 platform 4.4.0.560 update
1. History.
a. Received BlackBerry Curve 9330 out of the box with bundle 2333 installed (but missing Verizon Visual Mail Message app.) Installed BB Desktop Software on laptop, connected smartphone to PC, Attempted to install bundle 3084, but initialization apparently failed, phone still showing bundle 2333 installed and no VVM app. Browser app unable to connect to network. On second try was able to complete 3084 install. Still no VVM app. Now some times the browser connects, sometimes it does not. Browser not connecting appears to be BB software bug. VVM issue appears to be one for the service provider.
b. Data service is currently Verizon BlackBerry Social Messaging Data Package which is suppose to have BlackBerry Internet Services via WiFi per Verizon FAQ doc.
2. Problem. With an active WiFi connection the Browser app is not connecting via WiFi giving a error message that WiFi service is required.
Investigation found if mobile network data service was turn off in Mobile Network Options, the BlackBerry Internet Services connection status was changed from connected to "WiFi" to "not connected". Browser appears to work ok when mobile network data service is turned on. BIS connection to WiFi comes back on. Not sure at this point if web data is going via mobile network or WiFi.
I am wondering if other BB 9330 Verizon users are seeing the same symptoms.
Bill
P.S. I could not find where to report this apparent software bug. So I hope is the right place.

If you have your Mobile Network as well as Wi-Fi turned on, your phone will default to the Wi-Fi for browsing (assuming you have a strong Wi-Fi signal). Leaving both on will allow you to browse as well as receive calls and texts.
I hope that helps you.

I have windows vista home premium and all other versions of iTunes worked on my laptop iTunes 10 won't work, I get a message saying I'm not connected to the Internet when I am. Why isn't iTunes recognizing my browser configuration?

I have windows vista home premium and all other iTunes worked on my laptop, I downloaded iTunes 10 and now the iTunes will not connect to the Internet. I use Mozilla firefox on my laptop and for some reason it keeps saying the connection timed out and I'm not connected to the Internet when I am. Why isn't iTunes recognizing my web configuration?

It probably has to do with your security and/or browser configuration.
When my laptop crashed last year and I had to get a new one, I dealt with the same thing. First, go to your control panel and select the security section. See if your firewalls are up or not. If they are, turn them off. If you have any software to speed up your browser, that can affect the connection as well. Go into that software and disble/turn it off. If this doesn't work, contact customer support. They have a few other tricks they had me try that worked, but I can't remember them now.

After updating to latest version of itunes i get error -3212 when trying to connect to itunes store, says not connected to internet. But internet status is ok and can use browser

just updated to the latest version of itunes for windows. i can't stream any of my radio stations and when i try to connect to the itunes store i get an error -3212 message saying i'm not connect to the internet, yet my browser works and my wireless status is ok.

I also had this issue when one day itunes stopped working for me on windows 8...
the error message I received first was: C:Programme files\common files\Apple\Apple Push service.dll is either not designed to run on windows or contains an error.
followed by: ITunes not installed Error 7 (Windows error 193)
Your response addressed how to fix this issue with earlier windows operating systems, but not for windows 8, so what ended up working for me was your advice applied a little differently. For anyone running windows 8 needing to know how to resolve this issue by repairing the Apple Application Support program, try following these simple steps - what a relief it was to have itunes working again after applying b noir's answer to the windows 8 operating system!
1. Swipe in from the right edge of the screen, tap Settings, and then tap Control Panel.
(If you're using a mouse, point to the lower-right corner of the screen, move the mouse pointer up, click Settings, and then click Control Panel.)
2. Click the Programs and Features icon.
3. In the list of programs and features, find the Apple Application Support feature and click to select it.
4. In the gray title bar above it, click Repair.
5. Approve the window prompts that follow until the repair has been completed.
6. Relaunch iTunes.
Hope this helps & good luck!

I use firefox as my web browser not internet explorer and for some reason itunes says i am not connected to the internet when i am connected.

i use firefox as my internet browser. when i go to itunes to download music it says i am not connected to the internet when actualy i am. what am i doing wrong?

Firefox is a web browser not a homepage.
It sounds like you you have the old www.google.com/firefox/ start page that used to be the default homepage in Firefox before Firefox 4.0 sometime. It is not being maintained by Google anymore so either ignore the message or while in Firefox go to Tools->Options->General->Homepage section and change your homepage.

New Galaxy 5s. Trying to connect to a guest wireless that routes browser to a login screen. The wireless will not connect (gives authentication error), so will not pull up browser window. My previous Android did not have this problem (it would connect and immediately reroute to the login screeen).

Would you please try manually set the DNS address on client NIC to the IP of your server, then try run the connector again?

Suddently can't browse internet... "You are not connected to Internet"

It has been now 2 months that I have an issue with internet with my Macbook Pro.
I am connected to Internet and browsing internet, however suddenly and without any reason Safari/Firefox give me a message you are not connected to internet. However, MSN or YM are still working fine
It happened to me with both Airport and Ethernet connection but only with my specific provider (but only in my macbook pro, not in my pc or iphone)
When the problem occurs, I run a network diagnostic and found the following
- Pinging an address that need DNS won't work (ping www.facebook.com ==> error: host unknown)
- DNS lookup however working: lookup www.facebook.com ==> 66.220.145.10
- Pinging 66.220.145.10 is working
- any traceroute on IP numeric address is working, however when it need DNS it is not working (traceroute www.facebook.com: unknown host)
The workaround I found is to disable and enable again the interface to make it working...
Did someone have experience the issue?
Regards, Bernard

Me too. What a pain!

the guys at apple had no idea how to fix it. some networks i have no problem with works completely fine

Hi
I'm facing the same problem as yours.
I've seen lots of posts reporting the same problem, and Apple just doesn't seem to be worried about the problem.
Maybe everyone should keep in mind that iPod Touch is a limited equipment for internet access (and not the wonderful gadget they announce).
As long as users keep on buying iPods, a user's problem is not an Apple's problem.

TS4532 My iPhone V will not connect to a Microsoft Exchange server. It says that the User Name or Password are incorrect even though they're not and I can log on directly to Exchange using the web browser. The connection worked until IOS 6.1.2 was Install

My iPhone V will not connect to a Microsoft Exchange server. It says that the User Name or Password are incorrect even though they're not and I can log on directly to Exchange with the same parameters using the web browser.
I bought the phone when it came out last October. The connection did not work at first, then started without warning in December. It worked perfectly for 2 months then stopped again when IOS 6.1.2 was Installed.
Help please!

I have forwarded these questions about the version of Exchange server that is being used and whether Microsoft host the mai themselves to the IT Dept but I will not get a reply from them until tomorrow.
In the meantime I have also tried:
Deleting and re-creating the account AGAIN!
And re-setting the phone (recommended as a solution to a similar problem with an iPad in another forum.
But please remember that:
The phone would not connect for 2 months after I bought it
Then started working unexpectedly in December
Then stopped working again when IOS 6.1.2. was installed
Also why am I the only person affected by this when colleagues with iPhone 3s and 4s who use the same mail system are not (I am still trying to find one with an iPhone V to see if their's works).
Like I said I think that there must be a fault, either with my own phone or with iPhone Vs in general.
