Can access network/inet but cannot get out to "browse"

Greetings almighty MAC gurus! I have seen the light and thrown off the PC shackles. But alas, they chains are long! I am configured thru a linkys wireless router (attached to a pc homen network). I get an inet connect, IP addy etc. But when opening safari I go nowhere. I have spent an hour on phone with cust. serv. tried configuring within the firewall interface, tried the $ in the password etc. Nothing.
Please help me. My beautiful new macbookpro laughs at me as if it knows I come from the PC world.
My appreciation would be immense!
Best,
Raine

Greetings almighty MAC gurus!
I'm not one of these, so sorry for eavesdropping : )
Did you get an IP for the DNS server? If the DHCP process doesn't assign the correct IP (does yours begin with 169?), or DNS information, you might try rebooting the router, that's what happens to mine sometimes.

    I am using an older browser and OS because I cannot upgrade right now. I can access my email but cannot seem to put anything into the TRASH and if I do get some things to go in, I cannot empty. I would love to get compliant with my 5gb of free storage!

        We are sorry to have lost you as a valued customer ndl9! I'm sorry to hear of the difficulties you are having with trying to pay your final bill. Our best recommendation is the pay my bill link, which should allow you access based on your former phone number or account number. Did you try both? As an additional option, you can reach our automated system from an alternate line by dialing 800-922-0204 and then entering your former wireless number. http://vz.to/1fdEQVi

  • I moved iTunes TV files from my PC to an external drive. I want to return them to my PC so I can watch during travel, but cannot figure out how to move them back. Can you help? Thanks in advance.

    I moved some iTunes TV shows from my PC hard drive to an external drive. I can watch them as long as the external drive is plugged in, but I now want to move them back to my PC to watch from the internal drive, but cannot figure out how to do it. Can anyone help? Thanks in advance.

    Is it just the TV Shows that you moved to the external, or did you consolidate all your media there?
    What is the current location of the media folder given under Edit > Preferences > Advanced?
    If the media folder is currently pointed to a folder on the internal drive you could select the files you want to copy, then right-click and select Consolidate Files from the pop-up menu. This will leave the originals behind. If you want to move specific files to a new media folder then my script ConsolidateByMoving can do this.

  • I upgraded Thunderbird and now can see the Inbox but cannot get to the emails, only see the inbox with 5 messages.

    I upgraded Thunderbird a few minutes ago, but now I see there are messages in my Inbox, but I can only see the folder, the emails are not accessible. Nor can I seem to send messages, read messages, get to my Address book. I have normal menu bar at the top, the left panel is the normal list of folders, but on the right where I should see emails, as I have clicked on the Inbox, I see
    Thunderbird Mail - Inbox
    EMAIL
    Read messages
    Write a new message

    View settings for this account
    Create a new account
    Email Chat Newsgroups Feeds
    and so on, These are listed in groupings, which I can't effectively show, but I can't do any of these things.

    I even uninstalled Mozilla and then reinstalled it, but apparently, that didn't work, as it found my account settings, instead of my having to reset them and I was right back where I was before.

    Actually it did not answer my question, I still need resolution.

  • Macbook Pro Retina OSX v. 10.8.3 -Canon Printer MP560. Printer no longer responds to print commands from the computer, printer and network work but cannot get docs from my macbook to print anymore.

    Until last week, my printer and Macbook worked fine together - could print any doc or pdf, web page from my computer. Then it stopped - my printer will still make copies but will not print anything I send from my Mac. I have checked network connections, the printer WiFi connection works. I have not changed or added any thing different to my settings. I am out of ideas. thanks, Pattee

    Hello Pattee,
    The following article has a number of troubleshooting steps that may help get your Printer working again.
    OS X Mountain Lion: Troubleshoot a network printer
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH11070
    Make sure you’re on the same network
    Your computer might not be able to find a printer that’s on another local network.
    To see if the printer you want to use is on the same network as your computer, try adding it again. If the printer doesn’t appear in the list of available printers, your computer might be on a different network now.
    If you know the printer’s IP address (for example, 192.168.1.100), you can try adding it as an IP printer. For instructions, see this help topic:Set up an IP printer
    Add your printer again
    Try to add your printer again in Print & Scan preferences. If you can print to the newly added printer queue, delete the old printer queue.
    If you can’t add the printer because it doesn’t appear in the list of available printers, it may be turned off, or your computer may be on another network now. if the printer was shared by another user, the user may have stopped sharing it, or the user’s computer may be offline. If you don’t manage the printer, ask the person who does for help.
    Edit your list of printers
    Set up a printer
    Reset the printing system
    If none of the previous solutions work, the printing system may be corrupted and need to be reset. This removes all printers from your list of printers, deletes information about completed print jobs, and deletes any printer presets.
    Reset the printing system
    Cheers,
    Allen

  • I have changed my apple ID but cannot get my Mac computer to change it on iCloud.  I have signed out but do not know how to sign back in with my new id.

    I have successfully changed my apple ID and password, but cannot get my Mac computer to change it on iCloud.  I have accessed system preferences, iCloud and sign out.  But now I do not know how to sign in using my new id and password.  I would like iCloud to work on my Mac so that it will sync to my iPhone and iPad.  I have installed all of the latest software.  How do I change this account on my Mac?

    Do you have your Mac backed up?
    If not, you should use Time Machine to back up your Mac to an external hard drive just "in case".
    But if all you did was change your existing ID, then deleting the Calendar infomation from the Mac when you sign out should not be an issue. Since it is the same Apple ID, it is the same iCloud account (just with a different name), so your Contacts, Calendars, etc. are stored in iCloud. When you sign back in, you will have the option to sync Contacts, Calendars, Notes, etc. with iCloud - it should already be checked. Just sign back in, and your iCloud info will re-download to your Mac.
    I just tried this, and all of my stuff showed up when I signed back in. Notes took a couple of seconds to load once I opened them, but they are all there.
    Note: If you are signing on with a brand new Apple ID, then nothing will be downloaded because it will be an entirely different iCloud account. But if it is the same Apple/iCloud/iTunes ID with just a new email, then it will all be restored.
    Cheers,

  • I have a new iMac running iTunes 10.4 in OS 10.6.8, and a new Mac Air running iTunes 10.4 in Lion.  I was able to transfer all my music etc. from the iMac onto the Air, but cannot figure out how to get the Playlists from the iMac to the Air.  iTunes Help

    I have a new iMac running iTunes 10.4 in OS 10.6.8, and a new Mac Air running iTunes 10.4 in Lion.  I was able to transfer all my music etc. from the iMac onto the Air, but cannot figure out how to get the Playlists from the iMac to the Air.  iTunes Help says File >Library >Export playlist and choose XML, or to save a copy of all your playlists, File > Library > Export Library, "the Exported info is saved in XML format."  Then it says, "to import an iTunes playlist, File > Library > Import Playlist".  Now I am assuming I do that import part on the Air, but when I try it doesn't recognize anything that can be imported - what am I missing??? Aside from a clue...

    Thanks, Jim, for taking the time, but the reply is unfortunately vague in the exact area of my confusion!  "you need to copy that file to your new computer..."  Well, the Import/Export instructions make it seem as if the two computers should be able to communicate this file thru wifi, but that's the linkage I can't seem tocreate with Import/Export.  Should I instead email a copy to myself (thats what applecare suggested)?  Copy it to and from a thumb drive?  But then place the file where?  And the article was helpful, but should I be trying to move the Library file or the Library.xml file (as iTunes Help suggests)?  Sorry to be so clueless about it...I suppose I buy Apple in the hopes of not having to think about this stuff, which approach seems not to be serving me well. Thanks again for your time!

  • The icloud keeps asking for apple id but cannot get it out of the loop

    the icloud keeps asking for apple id but cannot get it out of the loop.  It will not let me delete or get to settings

    Perform a Reset... Try again...
    Reset  ( No Data will be Lost )
    Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
    Wait for the Apple logo to Appear...
    Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds... ( But can take Longer...)
    Release the Buttons...

  • HT4623 when iOS7 was installed all apps purchased disappeared; now when I go to app store I can open app, but cannot get app to install onto the screen; How can this be accomplished?

    When i0S7 was installed on iphone all purchased apps disappeared.  Now when I go to app store I can open app, but cannot get app to install on phone.  How can I get apps installed back onto iphone screen?

    Press your home button, then scroll the home screen all the way over to the right. I found all my purchased apps were moved to a different home screen. Might be a similar issue.. let us know what you found out!!

  • I purchased pro twice but cannot figure out how to access it.  I don't have a serial number.

    i purchased pro twice but cannot figure out how to access it.  I don't have a serial number.

    Hi lisalhawkins,
    I checked with your account and it shows that you have purchased an annual subscription of Adobe ExportPDF online service. Right?
    ExportPDF service does not require a serial number to access it.
    All you need to do is sign in at "https://cloud.acrobat.com/exportpdf" using your Adobe ID and password.
    Then, you can upload PDF files from your computer and convert them to other formats like Word, PowerPoint, etc.
    On completion, you can download the converted file on your computer and edit it for further use.
    Hope I am clear. Please let me know if you have further query on the same.
    Regards,
    Anubha

    Hello, Edward and thank you for your note.
    I read through the thread you mentioned and it seems that people are having a lot of problems with the iCloud clients, so we're not alone, but the unique issue in my case is the failing email address vs. the working perfectly email address.
    After reading your message tonight, I tried my setup again with the preferred Apple ID (the one without the "." between the names), and for the first time ever, IT WORKS. Mail app configured the servers both send and receive as p01-smtp.mail.me.com and p01-imap.mail.me.com. For the first time, I'm able to send and receive into the Mail app, create mailboxes, move messages into and out of mailboxes, keep Sent messages, etc.
    I had a 50-minute support chat with MobileMe support via ExpressLane on Monday afternoon. They couldn't resolve my issue but passed me on to escalation. I was told to expect to get an email from advanced support by this afternoon, but none has arrived. However, so far tonight -- and I will check again tomorrow several times before declaring victory -- it looks like something has been fixed on the Apple end to make things work.
    I will report back after I do some additional testing tomorrow to make sure the fix is real and is solid...and before I let my friend, the new Mac user, know the good news.
    Regards,
    Mike
