Can see the network but not the basestation

I've seen lots of problems for configuring an older (Dual Ethernet) base stations, however I've not seen a problem quite like mine. both of my laptops can see and connect to the network, however the connection doesn't get past that point. This has happened before, however the new part is that neither of my laptops can find the base station via the airport admin utility. I have a MBP running leopard and a TiBook running 10.4.10 and they both have the same problem.
I've tried using the configure other option and enter the IP address for the router but I always get an error code. I've tried connecting via either of the 2 ethernet ports as well and neither of my computers will acknowledge that the base station is there. I've checked the original documentation and the lights are behaving as though nothing is wrong other than no network activity.
I'm loosing my patience and I'm about the throw the thing out a window

I have a similar problem with my TiBook G4 10.3.9 and my Airport Snow. The laptop does not see the base station and tells me I have no network selected. The TiBook sees other networks and lists them in Internet Connect, but my account is missing. The base unit seems to be functioning properly, flashing all the requisite lights.
I've tried using the Airport Setup Utility and the Airport Admin Utility to reconnect but neither sees the base unit. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Wireless devices can see wireless network but not connect

Can anyone please assist? I have a WRT54GS v2. My wired computer accesses the Net fine and I can see MAC address, IP Address, DNS, subnet mask, default gateway in the linksys browser software. The devices can see the network with strong bars but cannot connect.
HELP!
Thanks,
Solved!
Go to Solution.

It is possible that the router could have encountered some wireless interference, doughboy17. You may try adjusting the wireless channels of the router. Use channels 6, 3, 1 and 11. Have you tried checking if you still have the correct Wi-Fi password?
If you have the correct network settings, try requesting for the firmware file and perform an update. That might help in resolving this matter. Or, you may proceed on doing a factory reset and configure the router again.

Suddenly I cannot see my gmail in my inbox on my macbook. I tested it and I can see my gmail in google. I deleted my gmail account on my macbook mail and re-added it and still cannot see incoming gmail. I can see new icloud e-mail. I have both a gmail account and an icloud account. For my test e-mail in gmail, I can see sent gmail but not incoming gmail. How do I fix this?

Try rebuilding the mailbox. This can take awhile if you have a lot of mail.

Bonjour - Mac A can see Mac B but not vice versa

Hi
Very odd behaviour with Bonjour. Up until yesterday, my macbook pro (call it A) would see my mac pro (B) - it would appear automatically in A's sidebar, I could listen to B's iTunes library on A and so on. No problem and there hasn't been for a couple of years. B could not see A - but I didn't really need it to and this wasn't an issue.
Suddenly, this morning, the situation is completely reversed. A can no longer see B at all, but B can see A.
I can connect both ways by using 'Connect', I can ping both ways, but I can't get A to discover B using Bonjour.
The only think I've done that I can think can have caused the changes is to use Omnifocus sync (with B holding the sync server) - it worked fine all day, but overnight Bonjour seems to have reversed itself as described above.
Bonjour Browser shows me that B can see A, but A can't see B. I have identical settings on both machines for sharing, network, firewall (all everything).
Bizarrely, for one two minute period a couple of hours ago, the situation reversed itself (A could see B but not vice versa), but then immediately went back to B can see A, but not vice versa.
Both computers are running the same version of Leopard (10.5.7). I've reinstalled the OS on B, just to see, but this hasn't improved matters.
I can find nothing on google or this discussions forum to explain this bizarre behaviour - most support threads seem to peter out without being resolved. Has anyone any idea what's going on please? I'm quite happy getting stuck into the command line, if that's needed.
Many thanks
David

The Macbook Pro is connected wirelessly to the router, the Mac Pro connects to the same router by ethernet.
As far as I'm aware, I'd made no changes to any of the setups (computers or router) before the problem occurred: bonjour worked fine, but in one direction only (the MBP could see the Mac Pro, but not vice versa). Now, the Mac Pro can see the MBP, but not vice versa - and this is a problem because my printer and itunes server both sit on the Mac Pro.
I've set all the firewall and security settings I could find to transparent access - and (except for the obvious difference between the wired and wireless links), the setups are identical on both computers.
By the way, I can connect to the Mac Pro easily enough and transfer files, I just can't see it via bonjour or use Screen Sharing (again the settings haven't changed since they were working!)
Many thanks

Can See Wireless Network, But Can't Connect

I am able to see the linksys wireless network under my wireless options, but when I try to connect, it says there was an error joining the network. I have been able to connect before with no problem. Two other wireless enabled computers in my house are able to connect to the network, but not mine. If I plug into the ethernet port on the wireless router, I can get internet. I've already tried the instructions from the "Getting Association (signal strength), but no Internet access" article, but nothing changed. Also I've upgraded the firmware and restarted both the router and my computer, but nothing helped. I don't know of anything that I did to my computer from the day it was working to the day to the day it stop working. I have Mac OS 10.4 fyi. Does anyone have any other suggestions? Is it my computer that is the problem or the router?

After you upgrade the firmware in the router, you must reset the router to factory defaults, then setup the router again from scratch. If you saved a router configuration file, DO NOT use it.
Also, in the non-working computer, temporarily turn off your software firewall, and see it this helps.

In my .ipa viewer builder i can see free folio but not retail folio

Hi,
here's my prob: i am testing my viewer app for a multifolio subscription app. I can see the free issue but not the retail issue. I checked probably all the possible probs: in app purchase and retail folio have same ID, i logged out from iTunes and created a test account for the purchase. But after i tested and downloaded the free issue and loaded in the folio organizer the retail folio, nothing else appears in my .ipa...
Any help would be soooooo appreciated

ok, solved (but i'll leave the thread on, so it might be useful to anyone else): the problem was about IDs. Bundle ID was different from folio ID (i mean com.company.publication). They HAVE to be exactly the same

Iphoto : can see all thumbnails but not full size

I imported about 1000 photos into ipod and I can see the thumbnails just fine. But, when I double click on any thumbnail, all I see is a big white empty box with a ? inside. Please help!

Andy:
Give this a try: download and run BatChmod on the iPhoto Library folder with the settings shown here, substituting your account name for mine. You can either type in the path to the folder or just drag the folder into that field.

Home Share - 2 computers, can see one library but not other?

So home sharing is on on both computers, I can see the other computers library under "shared" in iTunes. However, the other computer cannot see my library.
I have tried all the firewall things, turning home sharing off and on, closing computers down and restarting.
Both are using latest version of iTunes.
The only difference between the two is my one is also synched with my iPhone/iCloud
any suggestions please?

Valid users can see a site, but not the document libraries they have permissions for

Hello everybody,
at a customer's site, there is SharePoint Foundation 2013 SP1 running, bound to both http and https. Seeminlgy out of nothing, a strange behavior occurred: Visting
http://intranet/subsite showed the page headers (logo, global navigation etc.), but no content. The welcome text was missing as well as the links to the document libraries which should appear in the left navigation.
After explicitely adding http://intranet as an alternate name (https://intranet was active only, don't know why), we can again reach content via http. Still strange appears, that
http://intranet global navigation links get redirected to https (fine, but unexpected). If we change a deep link to a document library from https to http in the browser's address bar, we can reach the content fine.
However, one problem still exists: This site gets published via TMG 2010 via https, and that also worked just fine for many months. But now, I can try what I want in TMG, valid authenticated users see only the top navigation, but no content at all.
Can anyone give me a hint about what to check? Of course, I will provide any info you may need.
Best Regards, Stefan Falk

Hello Daniel,
Thank you for your response. As to your questions:
I just added http://intranet to the alternate access mappings of the intranet zone and did not extend a website.
Besides SharePoint Central Administration, there is no other SharePoint web site collection on this server, and no other non-SharePoint-IIS-Site. This is a VM for nothing else than hosting this single intranet site collection.
We do see the same issue under two sub-websites underneath
http://intranet, namely http://intranet/Datenaustausch and
http://intranet/Protokolle. In both sub-sites, there is some welcome text on the home page and there are several document libraries, each with permissions not interited, but explicitely granted to specific users.
The first (solved) issue was, that we could not see the document libraries when using http, but could see them using https. This was solved by adding the alternate access mapping for
http://intranet explicitely.
We can successfully browse the sites (using http and https now) from the internal network. The one issue left is that the same does not work through TMG, that is, coming from the external network, we can see and call up the sites in a browser, but not any
content in them. We do see the site title and logo, and the global navigation at the top of the page, but we do not see the welcome text, nor the document libraries. This did work last week, and we do not know nor could find, why it stopped working. The issue
persists regardless of whether we use bridging to https or to http between TMG and SharePoint.
We have already restarted the SharePoint box, with no success.
If I can provide any further information needed, I will be glad to do so.
Best Regards, Stefan Falk

Tablet & mobile can see desktop tabs but not in the other way

Hi
I have an android tablet, an android phone, a laptop, and a desktop at work. All with synced firefox.
I use aurora on laptop and desktop, and beta on both android.
On the desktop, i can only see tabs from the laptop, and on the laptop, only one from desktop.
And on both android, i can see tabs from both laptop and desktop.
In all cases, i can't see tabs from the both android.
Sync is ok because i can see desktop ones on the android but it's not as useful as it could be if i can't have all tabs on every firefox, i cannot read on my tablet or my desktop tabs previously opened on the phone. I can see them in the history, though.
Any hint about this?

Did you check the sync setting to see if the tabs are synced?

Can connect to network but not internet

In trying to secure my wireless network, I connect to my network, but I am unable to get to the internet with the wireless security enabled. I have no problems connecting over the wireless when I disable the security.
I have a linksys broadband router.
I use a Mac book with intel chip that I am trying to connect wirelessly. I also have an older imac that is connected directly to the router that I was trying to share files.
I was trying to setup WEP- I know very little about network protection. I have had a router for a couple of years and when I was trying to set it up so I could share iles I realized it was not protected. At the linksys website I had several options, but experienced the same problem (I had a strong network connection, but unable to connect to the internet) no matter which encryption option I chose.
The error meeaage says that is unable to connect
Thanks

Hi.
I assume that you have a linksys router plugged into an airport express.
First off, seeing as you have a macbook you should use WPA2 instead of WEP as it is more secure. You can select this option in the airport admin utility on the main page. Make up a password enter it and click apply. The express will update. Then, when you select your network from the airport icon on the top of your screen it will prompt you to choose the type of security on the network (which will be WPA2 and after selecting this it will then propmt you to enter the password. Enter the password again (checking the keychain box as well) and this should be it.

Can connect to network but not internet. Please Help!!!!!!!!!

I have a Thinkpad T-60p and have encountered a serious problem; I am unable to connect to the internet. The Thinkpad will recognize and connect to wireless networks but when I go to actually open a webpage it does not open. I spent hours troubleshooting the problem to no avail. My other laptop connects to the internet fine, so I do not think it is an issue with my router or modem. I also went to my neighbors and I was unable to connect to the internet even though I could connect to his network; once again my second computer does not have a problem. I tried what I could in the Thinkvantage wireless software but I am not that familiar with it. When I use the test connection option it just reads, “unable to connect to internet” but I have a strong signal to my network. I then tried a wired connection directly to my cable modem and my neighbors; once again it showed that I have a connection, but still will not connect to the internet. I tried disabling my Firewall and Virus software and still could not connect. I have shutdown, unplugged and reset everything. I still receive the same results. I am not sure what has happened, I have not installed any new software or hardware recently. The computer has been working great up until this morning. I ran my virus software and a free online scan as well, nothing had been detected. I called tech support and they said it was a software issue to either pay $100 for help or post in the forum. The only other option I can think of is a complete systems restore, which I am trying to avoid. Anyone have any suggestions?
Please Help,
P.

I will try that when I get home from work, thank you for the advice. However,I did notice that when it attempts to connect it shows the IP Address in the IE window bottom left corner. In the past it would always read connecting to "website name" but since the problem started it shows the IP address instead of the actual name.

Can connect to network, but not to internet

I have a wireless network set up with four macs connecting to it. Three of the macs can connect to the network and access the internet.
My Black Macbook can connect to the network, but when I open Safari or any other program that connects to the internet I cannot actually get on the internet. For example, I open safari and after a few minutes it says I am not connected to the internet.
I can connect to my neighbor's unprotected wireless network and have no problem getting on the internet with that connection.
I have tried turning the computer off and on and turning the airport off and on and it does not solve anything. I did not do anything to the compueter, it just started this problem out of the blue.
Any ideas on how to fix this?

Do you have IP address limits ? Say I have 5 IP
addresses limit.
That is not it. And, I did not change anything before it just stopped working. The strange thing it is only within my wireless network that I can't access the internet. I eventually get the "you are not connected to the internet" screen each time I try to bring up a web page.

Can see in appletviewer but not in browser

NAS200 - Can See Public Drive but not private

Recently, I purchased new Dell XPS and connected to my network. I can "see" everything. All computers are running Windows 7. Home Premium on older ones and Professional on the new XPS.
Now the real problem... when I connect to NAS with new XPS, I can only see the public share drive. The private (backups of all my files) does NOT show. I've compared and matched network settings.
Any Ideas?
Jeff

Log in to the NAS200 web interface and turn off the option "convert failed logins to guest logins".
===Jac
Frequent NAS200 Answers:
1. DISABLE the "convert failed logins to guest logins" option to fix permission problems.
2. NEVER insert or remove hard disks while the power is on. NAS200 doesn't support hot swapping.
3. ALWAYS use the power button to turn the NAS200 off, don't just unplug it.
4. Don't trust RAID. Make BACKUPS!
5. To ACCESS the disks directly, you will need ext2 and/or XFS file systems. I recommend using SystemRescueCD.
6. Disks will get HOT with standard fan, use "green" disks or consider replacing the fan.
7. FTP server is insecure and doesn't work behind a NAT router. Use my firmware and SCP instead.
8. MY FIRMWARE supports SSH shell prompt and SCP for secure file access, and allows running other software.
