Can ping and use internet, can not connect to ethernet printer on network

I have been pulling my hair out with this problem, have used proffesional support and not solved the problem to date.
1) Have Airport Express (6.3) (WEP128, Airtunes, Custom Name, all else default settings) connected via the ethernet port to an existing office network to hub/switch then ADSL modem and PC severs.
2) Have a PC laptop connected and working (now) without issues, can internet, print to ethernet printer, connect to network drives.
3) Have G5 mac (10.4.8, no fire-wall), cannot print or connect to printer, can ping printer and use internet, limited connection to network drives (BTW).
4) Can connect to printer and print when bypassing AX and pluging ethernet direct to G5.
5) Mac G5 is allocated the first available DHCP address 10.0.1.2 followed by the PC with 10.0.1.3
Would appreciate any input to this one.
G5 Mac OS X (10.4.8)

Black, Welcome to the discussion area!
The AirPort Express (AX) is creating a separate subnet and this may be causing problems. Configure the AX so that the option to distribute IP addresses is DISABLED.

Mac 10.9.3 I can not connect C4780 to print on network.

I recently changed router and can not install my C4780 printer to the wireless network, it use to work perfectly. In order to set it up on the new router I deleted the printer and was planning to install it as I did the last time but it wont work. I can get it to work by having it as a USB printer but I dont want that, its really annoying me!
Please please please help!!

Hi there,
Thank you for your reply! In order to get an IP Address I would recommend the following:
Restore the Network Defaults. (On the printer, select the wireless icon to access the wireless menu, and select Restore Network Defaults).
Go to the airport icon, and look for hpsetup. Once connected Adhoc, the airport icon will change to a square. only then will you be able to print out the new IP by printing the Network Configuration Page. Printing a Network Configuration Page.
The new IP will start with 169.254.. then you can go into the Embedded Web Server to run the wireless setup wizard. (To access the embedded web server, put the IP address into the address bar of Safari. Once at the Embedded Web Server click on the Network tab, then select Wireless Setup Wizard.
Hope this is helpful, and have a great day!

HT3500 my laptop, iPad and iPhone suddenly do not connect to my printer. All of these Apple product and my HP printer are connected to wifi, but now I cannot get anything to print from computer, iPad or phone. suggestions?

All of my Apple product have suddenly been unable to find my HP printer. All are working/connected to wifi and were printing just fine yesterday. Suggestions?

Hello Faith25
Check out the articles below to get your notebook and iOS devices to print again. Check to see if there is anything that could be preventing it from being print to like a jam in the printer or a print queue that may be stuck. Another think to check, if you can get it to show up on your notebook. is to see if the printer has the latest firmware.

Can you get and use internet explorer for mac?

I am wondering If I can obtain and use internet explorer?

No
Safari or Firefox are the optimal choices. At times Safari does not open links with smooth pagination of fonts and lettering / graphics are not clear. So I opt for Firefox. Be aware that you need to close Safari to use Firefox. It has been my experience.that if I forget to close Safari and open Firefox at same time Firefox error message says oops! We need to reset or can't open try again.

I get an "unable to connect" message yet I can connect and use Internet Explorer with no problem. I tried updating to Firefox4 and still get the same message. What do I do?

Maybe you should test these things before calling people out, because these settings do function perfectly well.
iCloud is not supported on Snow Leopard or lower, why bother to mention it?
The OP has an iCloud account, and that can not be opened without Lion or Mountain Lion (on a Mac), IOS5 or 6 (on an iPhone/iPad)
The document I linked to is Apples documentation for iCloud on current devices,I don't care whether you believe that you know better than they do, but it will affect the people who follow your advice as it won't work

I never said that there was, perhaps you imagined it.

I have a MacBook Pro. My mac can detect wifi. But will not connect. I did get connected vis TCP/IP settings but I can't connect to any wifi anywhere. Network diagnostic has a green light for wi-fi and wi-fi settings. Red light for the rest.

Hello NotAppleSavy,
Thanks for the question. After reviewing your post, it sounds like the computer wont connect to networks. I see you have used network diagnostic. I would recommend that you read this article, there are a lot of other things you can do in this article that may be able to help you resolve or isolate the issue.

Bought a new Ipod touch and the WiFi does not connect. Tried Reset and total Restore, does not connect to Router on DHCP, tried Static manually and still can not get it to connect even though it registers as connected.

Bought a new Ipod touch and the WiFi does not connect. Tried Reset and total Restore, does not connect to Router on DHCP, tried Static IP, Subnet, Router and DNS manually and still can not get it to connect even though it registers as connected. Using Airport for router, latest firmware, no problems with Iphone 4 or Macbook Pro or any other internet devices. After total Restore (factory settings) tried again, showed connected to router, but does not display "check" next to router but little rotating icon even though the wifi range signal shows connected at full strength and it says it is connected. Just can't seem to get it to generate an IP. Any solutions other than turning it on and off again? Not a Merry Christmas morning.

Ok, so, a couple of things: Denisefromwaleska and I have the exact same size/type/color iPod. Now wishing I'd bought the black one maybe...
Second, Airport is an Express and I have a second one that I carry with me when I travel. Tried to connect my Airport Express to the internet and could not although the iPod did recognize the router and tried to connect to the internet for some time, unlike my previous problem. Updated firmware on my travel router, still could not connect to the internet. Going to try to set up a manual Static IP on the travel router here in a few and conect through it although I predict the problem will persist. Back on the Christmas Present Airport Express router, it is back in play and working fine for all devices save the iPod.
Thanks again for all your help, hopefully I can get a solution in place soon,

Can't use internet if not on wifi

Since the update my phone can no longer get on the internet at all!! I can get in WiFi but nothing else also cannot send pics anymore if there's anything I can do please let me know thanks

Thanks for the responses. No -- No One changed the password on our home routerNo -- I can't get to a free Wi-Fi store such as Starbucks, McDonald's etc. and to the other guy, I do not understand Acronyms. and you state I'm saying two different things in my problem. Let try to explaiin again and you can expain all the acronyms. Not the same issue at all. ?? The OP ? says they can't use OTA ?data, only wifi, after an update. You are saying your problem is just the opposite; can't use your wifi, but can use OTA, after a text message. I got text messages when I was out and about from AT&T 3 of them advertsing and advising me of changes from 4G to LTE,,,and to make sure I had selected LTE in my settings. the other texts were about roaming new info and new infor on new billing... Then I arrived at my physical home where I have Wi-FI,,,and my iphone is NOT connected. Can't get it to connect to my Router....as I was doing for the past 5+ years. have no idea how to fix

Can lync client use internet proxy settings to proxy edge servers, if direct access is not reachable?

Hi everybody I am trying to Login with my lync Client out of my organization. So I am using lync as a remote user. I am in another organization, and I am using their coporate lan wired and wireless, but I cannot Login to lync in my organization.
I see that I cannot Access my edge Server on port 443 to authenticate directly, I know that Client in this organization use Internet Proxy to browse the Internet. they have a .pac in their ie Settings.
my question is; can lync Client use Internet Proxy Settings to reach the Destination? I mean the Access edge on port 443?
or it can use only Client direct Access to reach the edge Servers?
I Think that the answer is that I use tcp protocol and not http, and maybe that is the reason why I cannot use the Internet Explorer Proxy Settings to reach the Access edge Servers, different maybe is the case I Need to reach the reverse Proxy for live Meetings.
Hope my question is clear.
Thanks

Proxy settings are used to tell Internet Explorer the network address of an intermediary server (known as a proxy server) that is used between the browser and the Internet on some networks.
Lync client doesn’t use Internet Proxy Setting. You need to access the Edge service directly.

Why is my Firefox Add-ons (Crowdstar Gamebar - Ask Toolbar) installed on Internet Explorer instead? Some of my game friends can see and use it on Firefox.

Why is Firefox add-on (Crowdstar Gamebar) installed on Internet Explorer instead? Some of my game friends can see and use it on Firefox after installing it on Firefox.
My Firefox is version 3.6.9.

That is not a Firefox addon, it is an installer package that can install anything it wants on your PC. As far as why it installed on IE and not Firefox, that would be a question for technical support for that product.

should I bring it to apple ?

Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new). Try each of these steps in order until the issue is resolved.
Replacing or even suggesting replacing hardware without doing basic troubleshooting first is not very smart.
If basic troubleshooting does not resolve, take it to Apple for evaluation. There is no obligation to pay for anything, the evaluation is free.

Hi, I`d like to connect my Ipad wirelessly to a stereo to listen to my music from the iTunes library on streaming, but also to movies online, games, Goear-) and so on. I guess I can do that using an Airport express connected to the stereo and via airplay

Hi, I`d like to connect my Ipad wirelessly to a stereo to listen to my music from the iTunes library on streaming, but also to movies online, games, Goear…) and so on. I guess I can do that using an Airport express connected to the stereo and via airplay to my Ipad. My question is, can I listen to all the audio that come out from the ipad (movies online, games, Goear…) or only to the music from iTunes library? I`d appreciate any help. Alex.

On the iPad you can stream videos, photos, or music from the Video, Photos, Music, and YouTube apps to an Apple TV OR just stream music to an AirPort Express Base Station.

They are not a supported carrier. You'll have to take it up with them.

I am considering purchase of the new iPad and already own iphone 3GS, can I use my phone to tether to the iPad and use the phones 3G connection? This will allow me to buy the cheaper version of the iPad without 3G.

You can tethe, but depending on carrier you may need to pay for that option... I've decided to have my phone on one provider and my ipad on another so i always have connectivity... More expensive in the long run, but I need to make sure I am always "on" for work
YMMV

I brought apple lightining cable from authorised shop , but my i phone is not getting charged with that how can i know its orginal or not there is no printing on that cable and the wire is little harder than which i was using before it came along pho

I brought apple lightining cable from authorised shop , but my i phone is not getting charged with that how can i know its orginal or not there is no printing on that cable and the wire is little harder than which i was using before it came along with phone.., Please let me know is the cable is orginel or not ..

the phone says it is not charging even though it actually is. Check and see if that's the case. A very underhanded trick by Apple so they can charge 10 times what the cable is worth. They do not win admirers by that proprietary trickery.

Can ping and use internet, can not connect to ethernet printer on network
