Cannot connect when 2 macs on trying to use internet
Hi,
I just bought the i3 iMac...we were given an iMac that is 3 years old just after that. The problem is when my wife is on the older mac and I'm on the i3, I can't access the internet -- it's set up wireless with airport extreme. She has no problems. But if I'm online 1st, there's no problem for either of us.
Next, I had transferred all my data from my Macbook Pro to the i3...but now I cannot access our wireless with that laptop. As you may be able to tell...I am technically challenged!
Thanks for any and all help!
Hi, nimiokoka. Try this:
Open AirPort Utility, which can be found in the Utilities folder of your Applications folder. Click on your Extreme in the sidebar, and then press "Manual Setup." If you're asked for a password, enter it.
Press "Internet" in the toolbar. Look at the "Connection Sharing" field. If my suspicions are correct, it will be set to "Off (Bridge Mode)." If the Extreme is your main router, you'll want to set it to "Share a Public IP Address." Then press "Update" and allow your Extreme to restart.
Does this work?

MacPro backed up to Time Machine, added Mac Mini now get "The backup disk image “/Volumes/Data/Jerry Booher’s MacBook Pro.sparsebundle” is already in use." error when Mac Pro tries to back up
It is standard Mountain Lion error due to the networking ability which is comparable to wet string. (actually that was lion.. it dried out some with Mountain Lion.. higher in the hills perhaps!!)

Linksys WAG54GS Router - iBook G4 Cannot Connect When Encryption Enabled
Hi - I have a HP laptop and Apple iBook G4 with a wireless connection transmitted through a Linksys Wireless router. When encryption is disabled, the iBook can pick up a signal and I can browse the internet, when WEP encryption is enabled, it cannot. The HP works fine. I add the WEP key to the iBook but it cannot connect. I've tried the two 128bit encryption options and the standard option, but none of them allow a connection. Is there a specific way to secure your internet connection/router when using an Apple? Any ideas/comments appreciated.

Hopefully the information in KB 106250, Mac OS X, AirPort: Connecting to Third-Party Base Stations will help.
Also if the Linksys has several locations for keys, make sure that your WEP key is in location #1. Apple does not support any other location. -
Cannot connect from Mac Pro late 2013 to Macbook Pro
Cannot connect from Mac Pro late 2013 to Macbook Pro . I have tried via ethernet and wifi. I can connect from the MBP to the Mac Pro but not vice versa. I have tried to connect to other MBP's on the same network with no luck. I try and connect as a registered user, as I usually do, with no luck. When I enter the Username and then Password the box vibrates as if the details are incorrect, they are not however.
Thanks in advance
JeffIt is 'just not working' again.
To answer you question. Other sharing services work. I can connect as a guest. I can share screens. I cannot air drop.
I cannot connect either way now i.e. from Mac Pro to MBP and vice versa.
I cannot connect to my wife MBP either. My wife cannot connect to my Mac Pro.
It neither works with wifi or ethernet cable.
I can connect to my Time Capsule directly and Time Machine backups are working.
The passwords are 100% correct.
The Mac Pro is a late 2013. Does anyone else have a similar problem? I have never suffered this one before. Seriously effecting my workflow

I am not allowed to sign in with my Apple ID on iTunes Connect when I am trying to publish my book in iBooks Author. I do not understand why because I have fulfilled the first steps creating an account and informed my IRS tax number...
The recommendation is always to make another ID for use with a paid books account. And while I can't swear this is at the root of your issue, you should in any case reach out to Apple for assistance on this one, I think.

Crashing apps. What do I do to fix it?
My first gen. iPad exits out of apps and safari at random times when I am trying to use them. So I basically can't do anything on it. Is there some way I can fix this?I have the same problem. Yahoo Sportacular aborts every time I try to open it. It attempts to load and then the device goes right back to the home screen. The problem started April 26 after I switched leagues from NHL to NBA. Closing all apps and Restarting doesn't solve solve the problem.
All other apps on the iPad work fine. IPad2, OS6.
Any other suggestions? I suppose I could delete the app from the iPad and try re-installing it -

I'm a new iPad owner. When I've rented a movie, I can't work out how to play it back without a wifi connection. I get a message which says you cannot connect to the iTunes store without an Internet connection. This happens whether I've rented or purchased a film. We're going on a flight soon and would ideally like to watch one on the plane. Can someone please provide some step by step instructions. Thanks.
Rented or purchased video are watched through the videos app after you have downloaded them, iTunes on iOS devices is for buying media only.

After erasing drive, tried to use Internet Recovery to download a bootable system
hi
i need some help.
after erasing the drive on my macbook Air, I tried to use Internet Recovery to download a bootable system, but after going through the motions of the spinning world globe and (probably) actually downloading something (it takes between 45 minutes and 1 hour to finish) and after it restarts, it cant find any system, and subsequently gives the folder with question mark, not able to find any bootable system.
what am i doing wrong?
how can i get mountain lion on it (like before) so that i can upgrade to mavericks?
thanksThe Online Internet Recovery system, Cmd + Option/alt + r keys at startup, will give you whichever OS X version originally came on that Mac when it was shipped from the factory new. That is IF it originally came with one of the Download Only version of OS X, Lion, Mt Lion or Mavericks.
If it originally came with Lion Yes you will need to buy Mt Lion from the Mac App Store or get Mavericks for Free. If it originally came with Mt Lion the newer Point version of that will be downloaded and installed. -
I want to connect my Mac Book Pro to the internet in France without any wifi connection available? Mi Fi? Sim card? All we have is a phone signal in this rural French location. I want to be able to Skype to states from there. We have a friend with a 3G ipad who uses an Orange sim card to do it. I would rather not have to buy an Ipad.
thanksI found out that the data package for one month useage with MiFi is 1G. How many minutes of online time does that correspond to?

Cannot Connect to Mac App Store
When I open the MAS, I get a "Cannot Connect to the App Store" alert in the window.
When I try to signin, I receive a red "Connection failed" message in the signin dialog box.
When I go to Software Update from the Apple Menu, I receive a notice that "Software Update can’t connect to the update server. Make sure you’re connected to the Internet, and then try again."
When I click on the Network Diagnostics button presented and go through the diagnostic, my network reports operating perfectly.
When I go to an app on the iTunes web-storefront click on the "View in Mac App Store" button, the MAS launches, but I get the same connection error.
I can sign in to the iTunes store. I can update software on my iDevices by using the iOS App Store. I have no problems there. It's just the MAS.
Apple support articles say:
If you’re having trouble using App Store, try these solutions:
If you see a message that your computer can’t connect to App Store, make sure your Internet connection is working. If you can open a web browser and view a website, there may be a problem with the store. Try using App Store again later. [I've been trying for two days, and there aren't a lot of issues like this on the first page of the discussions section, so I think it's probably not a common error at the moment...]
Make sure your computer’s date, time, and time zone are set correctly in Date & Time preferences. Choose Apple menu > System Preferences, and then click Date & Time. [These are correct.]
Make sure your Apple ID information is accurate and that you don’t need to correct a problem with a previous purchase. To verify your Apple ID information and review your purchase history, choose Store > View My Account or click Account in the Quick Links section. [I can't connect in the app, so...]
If you’re still having trouble, click Support in the Quick Links section. [I couldn't find QuickLinks, but no other support article seems to be availlable to help this problem.]
I have restarted my computer, I have removed the App Store with AppDelete and reinstalled from the Lion 10.7.4 Client Combo. I've got no change.
I did notice that the MAS window menu reports the name of the window as "Firenze", which seems weird to me. Can anyone advise me?

Is it really just a a server down, or is there a bigger problem?
(Couldn't edit profile; change is 12 GB RAM)Hi ..
Fist, uninstall Fingerpop beta > http://www.finderpop.com/manual/210/title.html
"/Library/ScriptingAdditions/SIMBL.osax"
Next, open a Finder window. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
Type this exactly as you see it here:
/Library/ScirptingAdditions
Click Go
Move the SIMBL.osax files from the ScriptingAddtions folder to the Trash
Try the App Store.
