Cannot ping/access iphone from pc via wifi connection

Hi! Im trying to ping my iphone from my pc, they are in the same subnet/network, and they are both connected to same wifi/wireless network, but I cannot ping my iphone, is there other things i need to do on my iphone for it to ping-able/accessable from my pc wirelessly? Thank you.

Yes that worked thank you and has taken me back to the start of the migration assistant. Unless there is anything else I should do, very many thanks! I will try the full process again shortly, having turned off all window updates include virus checker updates which may have caused the problem and I will use the Ethernet cable method. It would have taken hours via wifi,  4 hours to transfer music alone.
Thank yu

  • I am trying to set up internet sharing from my macbook air but there does not seem to be an option for this because the air is connected to the internet via wifi connection. Is it possible to still share this?

    I am trying to set up internet sharing from my macbook air but there does not seem to be an option for this because the air is connected to the internet via wifi connection. Is it possible to still share this?

    It depends upon how the other machines are connecting to your MBA:
    If the the other machines are also using wi-fi, they can connect directly to the wireless access point (router) without going through your MBA
    If the other machines are connecting to the MBA using ethernet you can share your wi-fi connection to them

  • I cannot ping any VIP from within the ACE or from rservers

    I cannot ping any VIP from within the ACE or from rservers.  Is this expected?  I have rservers in other serverfarms that need to be able to communicate with the VIP of other serverfarms.  Any help is greatly appreciated.

    Thanks for you reply.  here is the config.  I removed other rserver and serverfarm config that does not have to do with this issue.

  • Cannot ping or print from MacBook...

    I'm having a really strange issue where I cannot print from my MacBook wired or wireless, I can, however, ping and print from my iMac. They are both connected to the same router/wap. I cannot ping anything from the MacBook when it is wired or wireless! All other network functions work normally though, I can access the internet and screen share over my local network... but I cannot ping to or from the MacBook.. weird eh? Can someone please shed some light on this? Thanks!
    Dan O

    Have you tried to log in as a different user then trying from there. If you do not have a different user just create one...
    Go to Sys Pref/accounts then click on the lock at the bottom left corner put in the admin password then the plus button at the bottom left of accounts window will become active, press it to create a new account.
    If the ping and print work from that account then you'll know the problem is not OSX globally, at it may be fix by trashing some .plist? Not sure which ones yet.

  • When connecting ipad to iPhones personal hotspot via wifi it is showin up as 2 connections when only 1 device is connected. Is someone hacking my phone?

    When connecting ipad to my iPhones personal hotspot via wifi it is showin up as 2 connections when only 1 device is connected. Is someone hacking my phone? I only figured out I had a problem when my partner did the exact same set up and it showed up as only 1 device connected. I have changed the password and turned it off/on and etc. the really weird thing is now when my ipad is turned off and I turn my iphone personal hotspot on it shows up with 1 connection (when I don't have anything connected) for about 5 secs and then goes off and then 1 device connected for about 5 secs and then back off. This just keeps going on and off. What is going on. Could my phone have a bug or be hacked. Please help as it is kinda freaking me out. Thanks.

    Hello asrt17,
    This may occur if your iPhone is connected to your computer via USB, as it will automatically share the connection via USB.
    iOS: Troubleshooting Personal Hotspot
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2756
    When Personal Hotspot is enabled, your iOS device automatically shares your Internet connection with your computer when connected using USB.
    Example: When you connect iPhone to your computer to charge or sync with iTunes. To avoid unnecessary data charges, turn off Personal Hotspot when not in use.
    Cheers,
    Allen

  • HT201415 My iPhone is not having wifi connection anywhere

    My iPhone is not having wifi connection anywhere

    Hi PamelaVR,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    I recommend starting with these troubleshooting steps if your iPhone battery is not behaving as you'd expect:
    Battery does not charge
    Verify that the outlet being used is working.
    Try another USB power adapter if available.
    If no other USB power adapter is available, try connecting to a high-power USB 2.0 port (not a keyboard). The computer must be turned on and not in sleep or standby mode.
    Try another USB cable if available.
    iPhone or iPod touch displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive
    If you see the image below, charge the iPhone or iPod touch with USB power adapter for at least 15 minutes.
    You should see this image when iPhone or iPod touch begins to charge:
    If the screen still displays the low-battery icon, try turning the iPhone or iPod touch off and then on again.
    If the issue persists, follow these troubleshooting steps.

  • Why does my iphone 4 keep dropping wifi connection since ios5.0.1update

    Why does my iphone 4 keep dropping wifi connection since ios5.0.1 update, it worked perfectly before, my wifes 3gs connects fine and stays connected while my £400 paperweight losses connection, thinking of going back to nokia! Sort it out apple!

    If the "oh so Great Apple" were to monitor these forums then they might see all the problems
    that the people who have paid good money for their devices are having, i suppose they can do no wrong
    In your eyes, i just thought that if you pay a lot of money for a product that works fine, and you update
    It with a firmware update that they kept going on about how good it was and it can do this and it can
    Do that, then i think they should sort it out. I don't care if i "don't deserve to be an apple owner" or not,
    The fact is i paid my money and it should do what its suppose to do, i moved from Nokia to Apple because
    The N97 was crap and i put up with it for too long, and they didn't do anything to fix the bugs they just stopped
    Selling it and basically said tough s**t, so now this is happened i hoped Apple whould be better but they seem
    To be just like the rest.

  • Device is connected to to a wifi network but does not have access to Blackberry services over wifi connection

    please help me, my blackberry curve has been working perfectly fine (everything network and wifi connection are working great) since i got it but all of the sudden when i connect to our wifi at home i noticed that the wifi logo on the upper screen is grayed out. i checked the manual and it says: device is connected to to a wifi network but does not have access to Blackberry services over wifi connection. i dont  know what to do, i tried the hard reset (removed batt for 1 min while phone is on and put it back in) i also tried to remove the wifi profile and added it back up but still nothing seems to work, my service provider has BB services available on my phone, i can received BBM, pushed email, use FB on my phone using my network but i cant use my wifi to browse.. what should i do? help me please!

    With a PC, the Windows Firewall and/or the anti-virus software will sometimes block an attempted Internet connection.
    Check both applications to see if you can find a "blocked" item and then take steps to "allow" the connection.
    If still no luck, temporarily disable the wireless security for a short period to see if the PC can connect that way. If it can.....then you know it is security related issue.
    See if the PC can connect using a setting like WPA-PSK-TKIP. The equivalent Apple setting would be WPA/WPA2 Personal.

  • Cannot access work emails overseas via wifi

    I have both a work IPad and IPhone which I have taken with me overseas for work and I have repeated these steps on both devices several times utilizing several different WiFi locations:
    When I arrived overseas I switched off mobile data so I am not charged roaming rates etc
    I found a free wifi connection and successfully connected to this
    I went into CISCO AnyConnect: AnyConnect VPN "on" ; STATUS "connected' ;tick is shown next to iOSMobilrVPN-FF
    I go into my emails and load it up as per normal but it tells me that it has been updated when it hasn't because I have not received any emails now for two weeks isn't right because I normally get more than 30 a day.
    Sometimes I get "Cannot Get Mail: The connection to the server failed" but AnyConnect VPN tells me I am connected
    A colleague of mine is able to access his work emails with no issues overseas and showed me the steps above but despite my attempts I have yet to get any resolve.
    Please help!

  • I can SSH from the outside but cannot ping ISP gateway from 2911

    Hello all,
    I came across a rather strange issue. I am able to SSH to the device from my home but while I am consoled in, I cannot ping the ISP gateway or any other IP's. As expected, all trace-routes fail without hitting the gateway as the first hop. I have been reading about the NVI0 interface and I decided to use it. Most of the sample cofigs on here use the "old" ip nat inside / outside on the appropriate interfaces. What do you guys suggest?
    Here is the running config. It is rather simple since i did not add all the access-lists except the ones I thought necessary to test the circuit. Please point out any mistakes or errors. Thanks in advance!

    Hi Chris,
    That is what how I am used to configure the NAT, but IOS 12.3 and on introduced interface NVI0, which according to cisco documentation should make applying the NAT statements "easier". IP nat enable has to be enabled on all interfaces and then NVI0 makes the "inside" and "outside" decisions. I was hoping that someone could clarify the real use of that NVI0 interface and if it causes problems. Apparently it cannot be removed from the config. 

  • Downloading from Itunes via Wifi & Syncing to 2 Macs

    I want to download some music on my iphone via itunes. I have two mac computers an Imac and a Macbook. My question is that will my iphone sync the music I download via wifi itunes to both my mac computers when I connect my Iphone to Each of them? I just bought the macbook and have never plugged my iphone into it yet. I guess my second question is can I even plug my iphone into both computers so I can have my itunes insync on both computers?

    thanks for the reply. Will the music that I downloaded on my iphone via itunes wifi sync to both my computers when i connect the iphone? or will it only sync the songs I download on my iphone to the first computer I connect to? i thought i heard somewhere that it doesnt transfer songs from the iphone to your mac, only from your mac to the the iphone. But if I use the itunes wifi to download my music I heard that it will sync back to itunes my mac. I'm just trying to figure out how to get the music I download via itunes on my iphone to sync to both my mac.
