Can connect on one Mac but not other Mac, PC

I just moved and I had no problem connecting my Powerbook,iMac, and PC with my Airport Express in my last house. I have the same cable provider (Charter) and can connect my Powerbook in my new house. However, I have a iMac too with an Airport card and my girlfriend has a PC and both can't connect to the AE. They both see it but can't connect to the internet. I had no problem in my last house with any of the 3. Can anyone help? thanks

I don't mean to hijack, but I have very similar problems. My AE is flashing amber, but my 15"PB is online no problem. My roommates both have pcs, and neither can get internet from the AE, but they can connect and authenticate the WEP. When I choose to distribute using 192... (or the other number schemes) the internet stops for everyone, including my PB and the AE assigns an ip of 192.168.1.1 to itself (when working for PB:169:254:128:58). I am in San Diego, CA using Warner (I believe just a DHCP provider, no special instructions when they installed it 3 days ago)
Thanks for any help, and hope this helps chris too

TNS error ORA-12154 : can connect to one server but not to another.

Hello,
I have a Forms 6.0 application running on a Solaris box. It connects
fine to an Oracle 9.0 server but fails with ORA-12154 when trying to
connect to Oracle 10g running on a different server.
'sqlplus' can connect fine to both servers .
'tnsping'result is succesful from the Solaris client to both servers.
Configuration details are as follows. (IP Addresses have been
sanitised. I've included the client side listener and also entries for
the 'local' Oracle 8i server running on the Solaris 'client' although
I think some of this may be not relevant):

As you can see, I have tried adding an alias for the default domain
name suffix '.qonnectis.com' in the tnsnames.ora files on the solaris
client and on the new 10g server.
Just to add to the fun, the 'new' server running Ora 10g CANNOT connect
to the old server running Ora 9:
sqlplus user/pass@nn_qq3
sqlplus user/pass@nn_qq3.qonnectis.com both fail.
While the old 9.0 server CAN connect to the new 10g one:
sqlplus user/[email protected] succeeds.
Sorry this is such a mess. TBH I find this whole area extremely
confusing.
All suggestions welcome. Unfortunately I am away on holiday next week
but will follow up any leads when I get back.
thanks!

AEBS drops connection on one computer but not other

I have no idea what is going on. I have read a few threads in the AEBSn forum about intermittent dropouts after a firmware update, but mine is an older AEBSb/g. The strange thing is that I have my iBook and my iMac side-by-side, and most of the time the iBook connects effortlessly to the Airport Network (and then the internet), while the iMac sits there scanning for a network and not discovering one. Sometimes I am able to connect to the network initially on the iMac, but then it suddenly drops to no bars of reception, and I can't get back online. Sometimes it will automatically join again, or sometimes not.
I have taken to having the iBook connected to the Airport, and then sharing its internet connection with the iMac through the ethernet so that I can get the iMac online. I needed to do this to use Software Update to see if there were some updates that might fix this problem, but to no avail.
Right now the iMac is online, with 2 bars in the airport, and the iBook is also connected with full strength. Sigh. I just don't understand. The iMac has been my main computer for many years, and has been connecting to the airport for the last couple of years without major incident.
I did use the iBook to configure the AEBS recently, as I needed to change the network from WPA2 to just plain WPA to allow the iBook to join the network. But I'm pretty sure that the intermittent connection on the iMac started before I did that. In fact, I think I used the iBook to configure the AEBS because I couldn't keep the iMac connected long enough to change anything.
This is the longest the iMac has been online in quite some time. I am also able to switch to an external disk and start up in OS X 10.3.9 on the iMac (I created this startup disk when I upgraded to 10.5). It seems to connect just fine to the network/internet. In fact, after I do that and switch back to 10.5, I seem to have more luck connecting again in 10.5. But still not full signal strength - it fluctuates between 2 and 4 bars.
Anyway, I thought I'd start a new thread on this because of my situation with the two computers. It seems to rule out interference, anyway.

I just want to clarify that when I say the iBook is connected to the Airport, I mean it has joined my network wirelessly.

TS1492 I can connect to the internet but not to itunes

itunes error 11333, I can connect to the internet but not to itunes Store. Apple Support, mention update to itunes 7.5 will solve the problem, but if check for itunes updates in my system, it says that the system is pu to date

I won't give you a lecture about how poor WEP encryption is, but are you sure that is the problem? Is it possible that your new modem (or the carrier behind it) is not providing DHCP service?

Can manually subscribe with Windows but not with Mac

For some reason I am able to manually subscribe to the below feed just fine with iTunes on my PC (Windows XP) but I get an error when trying with my iMac (OS X 10.5.8):
*http://feeds.feedburner.com/Metalspeak*
The error I'm getting with my iMac references "An unknown error occured (400)"
I was troubleshooting a different feed and am getting similar results: it works fine with the PC, but not with the iMac:
*http://feeds.feedburner.com/MetalsPeakPodcast*
The error I'm getting on this feed however states "The file might be corrupted, or a file type that iTunes cannot play"
Can anyone think of why these feeds work with Windows but not with Mac? Any advice is appreciated!

The problem lies with the URLs for your media files. The one for the top episode is
http://www.metalspeak.com/episodes/MetalsPeak 10 - GenresPeak.mp3
This URL contains spaces, which are not allowed in a URL. Browsers - and from what you say iTunes in Windows - handles this by substituting the code %20 for each space when requesting the file; iTunes for Mac does not.
You need either to change the filename for each media file, removing the spaces or substituting something such as an underscore, and then amending the feed accordingly: or at the least to amend the feed by replacing each space with %20.
It's the same problem in the other feed.

Can connect to wireless router but not to the internet

Please Help, I have a WRT150N and I can connect to my wireless router by it will not connect to the internet from there, even though the internet, wireless, and security lights are lit up. If I plug a cord into the back of the router and then into my computer, I can connect to the internet, but once I disconnect the cable, I can still find and connect to my wireless router, but it will not connect to the internet from here. Under access it says "Local Only", I have the security type set to "Shared" under the security properties, and set to "WEP" with WEP key #1 entered. I have spent about 4 hours working on this problem now and could really use some help. Thanks.

Type ipconfig /all in command prompt(cmd.exe) to see whether it displays valid and correct IP, netmask, gateway and DNS info. If not, take a look on these cannot connect to wireless network problem and using ping to troubleshoot network problem articles to get more ideas. Hope it helps..

Both can connect to test sites but not videochat with each other

I am using a 2GHz PPC iMac on 10.4.6 with external iSight. I can see the Apple ad from one of the test sites. My wife is using a G4 PowerBook running the latest Panther OS with external iSight. She is in a hotel but can also see the Apple ad from the test site. When she was home, we could videochat over Bonjour.
But, while she is in the hotel out of town, we couldn't videochat with each other. Whether one initiated or the other did, we both get the "XXX failed to respond" message even though we obviously did accept the videocall.
If we both can videochat with the test sites, how come we cannot videochat with each other?
Given the above, I hope some experts can rule out a bunch of stuff and let me know the finite (and small) set of potential reasons affecting our situation so that I can work on resolving this efficiently.
What could be the likely problem?
On my side, I use an Apple AEBS that uses DHCP and NAT but my iMac is manually set to 10.0.1.201. I have set the ports in Firewall but even when I turned off Firewall it did not work.
Any help is much appreciated.

Hi Heng-Yee Yong,
The test sites are most likely set to have the ports open by UPnP which does not use NAT.
If you modem is routing and is using Port Forwarding and the Airport is as well then you have two lots of NAT going on at your end.
I would Open Airport Admin Utilty (Applications/Utilities) and log on to the Airport
Go to the Network tab.
Deselect Distributing Addresses which wll trun off NAT in the Airport and make it a Wireless access device.
This means your computer will have to take an IP form the Modem.
This may not be rquired if the modem id is Bridge mode itself as this measn it is not routing and all port will be open without the use of NAT.
This App can help identify if NAT is a problem
http://bleu.west.spy.net/~dustin/projects/natcheck.xtp
Or at least whether you have Consistent NAT or not.

Can ping from Windows to Mac but not from Mac to Windows

Hi all!
New owner of a Mac Mini. Know nothing about it, so NewBie Alert!
Windows PC with two NIC's. One connected to the internet, one connected to the Mac by using a crossover cable. Internet Connection Sharing on the Windows PC and the Mac can go out to the internet so there is connectivity between the Mac and the Windows PC.
The problem: I cannot ping the Windows PC from the Mac. I can ping the Mac from the Windows PC, so my suspicion is that it has something to do with a firewall on the Mac, but as far as i know the firewall on the Mac is switched off. On the Windows PC the firewall is definitely switched off.
Who can help me getting this working?
Thanks,
Ton.

There can be multiple problems here:
- no ping service provided on the Windows PC
- ping traffic blocked by a firewall at either end
- pinging the wrong host: You have two NICs in your Windows PC, with two IP addresses, and two host names. Only one of the two will be visible from the Mac. Use "ipconfig" at a command prompt to get the two IP addresses, or look at the Properties of your Network connections.
- Name resolution problem: Try using the IP address with the ping command, not a host name.
Ping from the Windows PC to the MAC, and observe the reported IP address. Make sure the IP address you use to ping from the Mac is in the same subnet, i.e. the first three numbers must be the same, like
192.168.1.100 vs. 192.168.1.101
What is the result of the ping operation, i.e. "host not reachable", "unknown host", or "no response".

Can send email from iphone but not from mac.

Hi. I'm using a mac desktop and the mail app. I can receive email, but not send. I checked my port and id/pswd and still cannot send. After the app tries to send, it says the server is offline.
I am able to send email fine with my iphone.
Any ideas would be appreciated. Thanks!

I've checked this and mail connection doctor says I am connected - think I am going to have to get someone in to help me as I have spent about 4 hours on this now :-(

The Oracle System ID (SID) is used to uniquely identify a particular database on a system. For this reason, one cannot have more than one database with the same SID on a host.
When using RAC, all instances belonging to the same database must have unique SID's even using different hosts.
So, you must set ORACLE_SID to QRC1 where Instance 1 is running or QRC2 where Instance 2 is running.
To know where instance number is running you can get this info following steps below:
$GRID_HOME/bin/olsnodes -n
lnxora01 1
lnxora02 2In example above all instance created by DBCA on lnxora01 will have prefix 1 (e.g db QRC will have QRC1) and on lnxora02 will have prefix 2. (it's not a rule, because I can set manually the number of instance as I wish)
Or exists another way to find it: (on local node)
ps -ef |grep pmon
ora_pmon_QRC1 So, to connect just set right ORACLE_SID
eg:
export ORACLE_SID=QRC1

IPhone 4 & iPod Touch can connect to Time Capsule, but not Internet

My family and I have an iPhone 4, iPhone 3G & iPod Touch. Our WiFi comes from a Time Capsule. My Macbook Pro can connect to the WiFi and get online, but the iPod & iPhones can only connect to the Wifi, not actually get online.
We some issues with our ISP last week, which took some time and some messing with the settings on Time Capsule to resolve. At one point, Airport Utility asked me if I'd like to switch to bridge mode...I'm not sure if that ever happened or not, to be honest, and don't know how to see if I'm in bridge mode or not (or even what that means, really).
With my iPhone 4, I can successfully connect to the wireless network, but the icon in the top left of the screen stays on 3G (unless my service drops in my house, in which case it shows the WiFi icon but won't let me connect via Safari or any other apps).
With the iPhone 3G, it does connect, but doesn't ever show the WiFi icon.
With the iPod, it says it connects, but doesn't ever show the WiFi icon. I get the error "Safari cannot open the page. The error was: Operation coudl not be completed. Invalid argument."
Does anyone have any idea what I could do to resolve this?

I fixed this on my own. How did I do it?
1. Reset Time Capsule to factory settings (via Airport Utility)
2. Renamed my WiFi network
3. Restarted my router
Everything's fixed. I've seen this problem all over the Web but no solutions, so hopefully this will help someone.

My PC is connected to my airport by Ethernet. I can connect to the network, but not the internet. My wireless devices can access the internet

My PC is connected to AirPort Extreme by ethernet, I can access the network, but not the internet. The wireless devices on the extreme can access the internet

Hey DM,
Is the Wireless(WL) router signal coming through the wired-router?
My ISP requires that my Wireless Router is identified from their end. I use AirPort Express, so they need its MAC address from the router. Without that, my network will show up, but my ISP doesn't recognize it and won't allow it to route he internet. I don't know your exact situation though.
Can other wireless computers access the internet? If they can through the WL router, then it might be the MacBook. If they can't, then you might want to contact your ISP and ask if they can see your wireless router?
Let us know.

I can connect iPod to charger, but not computer? No symbols or anything.

I have a huge problem with my video iPod. I can connect it to the charger, no problem. But when it comes to connect it to my PC, it just will not read it at all. Usually it dignifies being connected by showing the "do not disconnect" symbol. But now it just will not read at all and shows no other symbols on the iPod. I have tried everything I can on both the PC and iPod but nothing works.
Please help, me being the idiot I am, I have important uni files on the iPod that I need asap.

updated ipad just after and now it will not do anything and can't get it to appear in itunes.
Might need to restart or reinstall the AMDS.

MacBook Pro can't see Airport network but three other macs in house can

Very strange. I can connect my three iMacs (G3, G5 PowerPC and G5 Intel) to my Airport Extreme Network, but my MacBook Pro can no longer see the Network, and Airport utility (from MacBook Pro) cannot see the Airport base station (although other macs' Airport Utility can no problem). My MacBook pro can see 4 other networks (my neighbours' networks). Doesn't seem to be a problem with my MacBook Pro airport card as I can connect to the (non-Mac) wireless network at work with no problem. Am really confused (not the first time)!
Installed the latest Airport Extreme firmware last week, which was the start of the problem, as I then lost the ability to connect to my Virgin Media Broadband digital TV box, necessitating Virgin engineer visiting at weekend to connect a cable modem to the cable tv box, to which the Airport Extreme station is now attached. Had problems connecting my MacBook Pro last night, but eventually managed it. All other macs connect seamlessly. Am stumped.

I'm troubleshooting a friend's MacBook (Model ID: MacBook4,1) that is having serious Airport problems. This machine's Airport can't see ANY available networks. Sitting right next to my MacBook (identical model), hers is blind while mine can see several open and locked networks including my own Airport base station. If I choose to "Join Other Network..." and enter the network name and password for my network, her machine almost immediately gives me a "Connection timed out" error. It doesn't matter where her MacBook is, it can't see any networks anywhere.
This is a new problem as her Airport was working fine for the first few months. I've just finished making sure all software updates have been applied so she's now running the latest-greatest, but still no Airport.
This sounds similar to the problems other folks here are describing so I figured I'd add my voice to the chorus. I guess I'll take her machine down to the local Apple store this afternoon and see if they have any ideas. At this point I wouldn't be surprised if her Airport card was fried.

Optical drive can be read on Windows, but not on Mac OSX. Software issue?

My optical drive has not been able toread blank/burned Cds/DVDs for some time now on my Mac Mini 2010 running Mavericks. This problem first occured with Snow Leopard about a year ago (Never had Lion/Mountain Lion). At first I thought it was a hardware issue, until I booted up Windows 7 and it read the disc just fine. I have reset the PRAM, I have tried other discs, I have tried those discs on other computers (it obviously will work on this computer, just not OSX). I have seen similar issues to this in the past but no one seems to have tried/noticed if it works on the same computer with a different OS. Does anyone have any other suggestions?

The problem lies with the URLs for your media files. The one for the top episode is
http://www.metalspeak.com/episodes/MetalsPeak 10 - GenresPeak.mp3
This URL contains spaces, which are not allowed in a URL. Browsers - and from what you say iTunes in Windows - handles this by substituting the code %20 for each space when requesting the file; iTunes for Mac does not.
You need either to change the filename for each media file, removing the spaces or substituting something such as an underscore, and then amending the feed accordingly: or at the least to amend the feed by replacing each space with %20.
It's the same problem in the other feed.

Can connect on one Mac but not other Mac, PC
