Can't connect to a single external IP address
I'm having the same problem as this other person is having,
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=7072594
Basically, I've tried everything and I can't connect to this one IP Address: 206.212.255.34
I take the router out of the equation and I can connect just fine, connecting directly through my cable modem.
I know it's not a DNS issue as DNS is not even being used, it's a direct connection to the IP address.
In the thread above, that person couldn't connect to twitter.com and it was blocked for no apparent reason.
I can't connect to this IP address for no apparent reason.
Things I've tried:
resetting the router completely
changing the dhcp -> manual and setting the IP and using 255.255.255.0 as a subnet mask
changing the IPv6 to both alternate modes (it's presently set to link-only)
setting a DMX for my ip address
setting a static IP address for my computer
and I've tried just about everything I can think of, those are just some specifics.
anyone else having a similar or same issue?
I'm not talking about anything incoming, I'm talking about external.
My home computer -> external network across the Internet
I know how to use port mapping and DMX and all that, I know networking.
I've been trying to debug this for about 3 weeks now and I can't find a single solution.
It's only going OUT to that IP address that I can't connect, going through the airport extreme.
outbound withOUT using the router, it works just fine.
I appreciate any light you can shed on why my airport extreme is blocking my access to this single IP address, it's quite frustrating
thank you

Am on vacation & can't connect to the condos wifi, instead, I end at the 'ip address page' on my iPad2. I have reset network settings, no help.

Not happy:(I'm not talking about anything incoming, I'm talking about external.

SMB can't connect to server when dollarsign in address
Hey folks, this is an issue regarding OS X Lion, SMB and the dollar sign. A closely related question was discussed before https://discussions.apple.com/message/15680714#15680714 but did not solve my problem. I start this new discussion because in the old discussion the problem was marked as solved.
I have to connect to several network drives, using "Connect to Server" from the "Go" menu in Finder. The servers are:
smb://SERVERNAME/user/MYNAME
smb://SERVERNAME/Something$/Name
For both connections I use the same username and password. I can successfully connect to the first server which has no dollar sign in it, but I cannot connect to the second server which has the dollar sign in it. The message that I get tells me that I'm not using the correct user account. This, however, cannot be the case. Using a Windows PC I can connect to both servers using the same username and password.
Obviously, the problem is with the dollar sign. Any ideas on how to fix this issue would be appreciated.
Cheers!OK, here is a solution that worked for me:
First, I created a new folder in Finder. The new folder is /Users/MYUSERNAME/THEDIRECTORY/NAME.
Then I open Terminal and type in the following:
/sbin/mount_smbfs //USERNAME@SERVERNAME/Something$/NAME /Users/MYUSERNAME/THEDIRECTORY/NAME
(Terminal will ask for the password, so I have to type in the password each time, but nonetheless, it works for me.)
This command mounts the network drive in the folder I created in the first step.
I presume that it would be possible to write an AppleScript that uses this command and connects to several servers with just one click, so that I do not have to type the command each time I connect to the network drive. -
Can't connect to TimeCapsule as external hard drive!
Hey,
I have the TimeCapsule 1 Tb and use it for back-up and as an external hard drive.
But for the last few days, I'm not longer able to connect to it, as an external HD.
Can anyone tell me, how to connect?
If I open the finder window, and click on the TC icon, it says, connection failed. Clicking on the connect as... button doesn't work either.
Before, I always connected by going to TC Preferences, then I went to change volume and I selected the TC. I typed in my password and then the TC Icon showed up on my desktop.
But as I said, I'm not longer getting access to it. (back-ups work normally.)
Hope you can give me some advice!
Thanks for your help!!!After updating the airpot software and the firmware software, I'm unable to see the Time Capsule HD from my laptop. I had the same problem with my desktop, and after installing the old version of airpot and firmware software I started to see the HD Time Capsule again. I tried to install the same version of the airport(5.3.2) in my laptop, but I still can't see the time capsule hd from my laptop, only from desktop. I'm using the 7.3.2 firmware in my capsule. I lost the entire day uninstalling and installing all the possible version of software and I could only make my desktop work with airport 5.3.2 and firmware 7.3.2, but the same combination in the laptop is not allowing me to see the HD of the time capsule. I've already tried wireless and cable for installing and truing to locate the HD. I can not find this steps in my computer " In Finder go to preferences and check connected servers to show on desktop" . Can you please help me? Thanks a lot for you time and attention!

Suddenly can't connect to a single torrent tracker.
I'm not talking about peers/seeders or download speeds here, but the actual connection where I can see information about the particular torrent before downloading is even considered. I've never had a problem before, and usually download around 50GB a month. My internet connection is fine, my ports show they are open as usual. I've obviously approached my ISP about this, but just wondered if there was anything I might check that I haven't thought of, other than my ISP, that could possibly stop me connecting to the tracker?
I'm using Transmission, but I'd tried another app to see if it was that before posting. The thing is sig, it's suddenly just started working again. I suppose it could have been the ISP, but all they suggested was to reboot the router, which I'd already done. I have noticed recently that there can sometimes be a 30 second lag between opening the torrent and the info panel revealing the seeds/leechers, where usually it's instant. I didn't think anything of it knowing the nature of torrenting until just now. Could this be indicative of a modem fault in some way, and if so how would I test it? I'd assumed that internet traffic to the modem is the same - if it's working it's working.

Can I connect two non-TB external displays to a new MBP?
Looking to pick up a new MBP and I would like to connect two non-Thunderbolt monitors, they are nice but WAY too expensive, and I'm wondering if this is possible. I know I can use Matrox Head2Go line of products, but I would like to avoid shelling out another 2-300 on other hardware if I can avoid it.
So any other ways to drive two monitors? I'm surprised there is no Thunderbolt -> DVI adapter or something. Heck maybe there is, but I haven't seen it yet.
Thankshere is the adapter your were looking for http://store.apple.com/us/product/MB570Z/A
you'll also need to consider getting something that supports usb to dvi which will make your third monitor connnected via a usb port. This uses DisplayLink Drivers which let you connect a monitor via usb. Warning, it does not have full support for Lion yet.
I'm using the arkview usb display adapter. there are other on the market, they all use DisplayLink. And since I'm on Lion I'm waiting for DisplayLink to fix their drivers to work on it (it's been a struggle).
If you're on Snow Leopard it will do you well to stay on it. .
you could get on Thunderbolt display and then connect a monitor to that with the dongle I showed you. Then you will have no issues with Lion and your three displays.
Thunderbolt tech is new and new adapters will be coming out for it, especially something that handles mutliple screens. but you'll have to wait for this technology to be made. -

I want to demo new apps to my bosses in a group rather than one-on-one. I have a cable to connect my iPad to the TV's monitor cable and have checked all the TV inputs but nothing displays on TV. Is there an app that will display whatever is on my iPad screen or is there something in settings I need to change? I tried Projector with no success.
No, not with the original iPad. Only a few selected apps (where this feature was deliberately added) can do this on the iPad1, and no app can display other apps or "whatever is on" the iPad screen.

I've also tried network idagnostics, it can never get further than ISP. Sometimes ill get lucky and it'll connect, but the connection *****. I know the internet itself is working cause the other computers in the house are working fine. Help!
Thanks Bob, I don't know why but it all of a sudden worked a few days later. It's a mystery but at least problem solved.

Help! Can't Connect, DHCP Not Issuing Correct IP Address
I get an vDSL connection and have a home LAN set up with both Ethernet and Airport. Usually, when a computer connects through DHCP, it gets an AP Address of 192.168.0.x, "x" being a number higher than 1, depending on when it connected to the network. My desktop iMac works fine in this regard, with an internal IP address of 192.168.0.5, and the router being 192.168.0.1.
The problem: My Powerbook also used to do this fine, but suddenly this morning it could not connect to the network via Airport or Ethernet, with one or the other turned off, or both turned on.
The key: via Ethernet, the DHCP automatically sets to 10.0.1.4, with the router as 10.0.1.1--which, if I am not mistaken, is the Airport address system. But this is not under "Airport" in the Network control panel, it's under "Ethernet," and thus my problem. I cannot get the danged IP Address to go back to the correct Ethernet address! I tried restarting, turning Airport off, renewing the DHCP license, and trying the assistant features--nothing worked. My Powerbook is completely offline--and I have to use this for my workj in just a few hours!
Help! Thanks!OK, never mind. It turns out that I had plugged in the ethernet cable to the wrong port on the Airport base station. Somehow that was mucking everything up. I switched the port, and now it works fine.

Migrating a customer to Exchange 2013 from SBS 2008.
Once of the Pre-reqs is to setup an external A record for legacy.customer.com for the external IP address of the old Exchange server.
The customer only has a single external IP address...
So what do I do for this external DNS of legacy.customer.com?Hi Allister -
You shouldn't need an EXTERNAL dns entry for legacy. Here's how it works:
Client from outside -> External IP to Exchange 2013 (now here's where the interesting thing happens)
Exchange auto-magically proxies mailboxes on the old environment. Reason being: New Exchange Servers always know how to get to old servers. You just change all the internal URLs to legacy. (or you can even do oldmail., whatever you like) and since this information
is inside AD, Ex2013 will find it.
These are the URLs you need to change in 2007/2010
ClientAccessServer
webservicesvirtualdirectory
oabvirtualdirectory
owavirtualdirectory
ecpvirtualdirectory
ActiveSyncVirtualDirectory
AutodiscoverVirtualDirectory You can read more on how to set these here:
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/wiki/contents/articles/5163.managing-exchange-2010-externalinternal-url-s-via-powershell.aspx
Here's the Million dollar question though: being SBS 2008, does this have exchange 2007 or 2010 on it? If it's 2010, you don't need the legacy namespace anymore. 2007, you do. Connect to https://ex2013server/owa and log into a mailbox on the 2010 environment.
If you can get there (you'll know cause it flipped over to a 2010 interface) then it's working.

Can I connect my Mac to two separate wireless networks at the same time?
Need some assistance with some advanced wireless networking please....
Upstairs I have a D-link wireless router connected to the internet and wired to a couple of PCs. Downstairs I have a minimac linked to my hifi via an airport express. I have bought a D-Link DWL-G122 usb wifi dongle.
So I want the mini mac to connect to the airport express on one wireless network (strong signal) and to be able to connect to the internet on another network (weak signal) via the usb wifi /router.
But the airport software and the d-link driver seem to conflict and both try to take control of the two wireless devices.
Is there any way round this to be able to run one mac with two wireless network devices at the same time?
ThanksWhile those with more experience may be able to correct me, I'm pretty sure that you can only connect to one wireless network at a time with your Mac Mini, unless D-Link provides their own proprietary software that bypasses the computer's Airport settings.
Using the AirPort hardware you can only connect to a single wireless network at any given time. However in this situation the 2 attempted connections are via USB and AirPort. Therefore this requires nothing special of the AirPort drivers or settings.
It does require that the Mac OS and applications have the capability to use either network connection (USB or AirPort) depending on what data they are trying to get. In general I understand how it is theoretically possible but I have no idea if you can configure OS X to do it.
...I believe one of the options when setting up the Airport Extreme Base Station is that you can extend a wireless network already in place.
True but the D-Link is not compatible with Apple's WDS therefore this is not possible in this situation.
If you have a newer Airport Extreme Base Station with a USB port on it...
FYI, every AirPort Extreme base station (AEBS) has a USB port.
BTW, birky has indicated that he/she is using an AirPort Express (AX) not an AEBS. -
