Conflict with ethernet Internet connection

Since the last firmware update, a weird conflict has emerged. When a Thunderbolt cable is plugged in so that my MacBook Pro is connected to a display, the Internet connection goes down. I obtain the Internet through an ethernet cable connected to the mains electricity circuit.
When I start up in the morning, the Internet and the display work for about five minutes, and then the Internet fails. It comes back every time I pull the thunderbolt cable out. It disappears when I put it back in. Network Diagnostics says I get as far as the network, but not to the ISP.
This is very frustrating. Any ideas anyone? I have just updated to version 10.8.3, but this has not fixed the problem.

I'm not sure what you mean by...
I obtain the Internet through an ethernet cable connected to the mains electricity circuit.
NORMALLY, you'd have the Ethernet cable plugged into a router... and you'd use the Display Ethernet under System Preferences>Network when your ATD was connected via Thunderbolt port:
Like so...
Can you be a little clearer on where you have your ATD>Ethernet port connected?

Dual G4 Won't start up with ethernet internet connection plugged in

Hi,
My Dual 533mhz won't start up when the ethernet cord is pluged in. This recently started happening out of the blue (at least, I can't recall doing anything that might cause this). When I leave the ethernet cord in, the computer starts up with a network disk icon flashing and never goes away. When I don't have the ethernet cord plugged in, the computer still blinks with the network disk, but eventually changes to an OS 9 question mark folder, where it blinks some more and finally boots up normally.
The ethernet cord is one from a router.

Open the Startup Disk pane of System Preferences, select your hard disk as the startup disk, and quit System Preferences.

Itunes 8.2 disables Ethernet/Internet connection

In an effort to upgrade to iTunes 8.2 this morning, I d/l and installed without difficulty. However, afterward, my computer did not recognize my Ethernet and I could not connect to the internet. I restored my computer to an earlier restore point, which restored my Ethernet/internet connection and deleted iTunes 8.2. After some manipulation of files, I now have a working version of iTunes 8.0.2. This is so frustrating, b/c it has taken me several hours of research to get everything functioning as it was before installing the iTunes upgrade.
What do I have to do to get Itunes 8.2 to function on my computer without it disabling my internet access? Apparently without the upgrade to 8.2, I cannot download the software upgrade for my iPhone 3g.
Thanks for your help.

Its amazing, my previous post which was deleted by the powers that be, was solely related to the problem that alot of people are having. Namly Itunes disabling internet connection, because I was extreamly irrate about the whole this I accidentally put a swear word in the post.
How is it that the posts can be read to police against that but not to check on peoples problems and get them sorted.
Seriously apple get this problem sorted, I object to having to join this forum giving away my details so you can now email me, with alot of stuff that I don't even want. One thing I would like is for you to sort this problem out!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Hope that isn't too many exclamation marks, hope it doesn't offend anyone.
I am running XP, when I download Itunes it gets rid of my internet connection, thus making Itunes more useless than it already is.
We are waiting for an answer. As I said in the previous post, DO YOUR JOBS AND GIVE US AN ANSWER TO THIS PROBLEM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And for the Apple discussions staff, if you are reading this, how about a bit of customer service, stop hiding behind your standard signature block and sign your emails with a name. The personal touch would make people less inclined to lose their tempers.

How can I connect my i pad to a hard wired ethernet internet connection?

Can I connect my i pad to a hard wired ethernet internet connection?

No you can't. You can use Internet sharing with your computer making the computer the WiFi hotspot for the iPad, but you cannot connect the iPad to an Ethernet cable.

No Ethernet/Internet Connection on Parallels 7 Running Snow Leopard Server - Fix?

I have recently installed Parallels 7 on my 2013 iMac, and have both Snow Leopard Server and Windows 7 running great on the Parallels platform.
However, after installing some anti-virus software, "ClamXav" and "MacScan", I need to have the internet connected to my Paralells 7 so I can receive viral updates to both these programs. I am unable to get any ethernet/internet connection on my Paralells 7 running Snow Leopard Server.
I have tried to update the Paralells 7 Snow Leopard Server "network Info" (in SL systems preferences" ... as the same ethernet connection info that I have running my "network connection" on my main OS Mountain Lion, but still no ethernet connection in Paralells 7.
This is a screen grab of the locations where I believe I am able to update my "ethernet" info for Paralells 7 Snow Leopard:
Obviously, I've blurred out the current info in these two windows, for security purposes, but exactly what should be applied to these windows to get my "ethernet" connection in Paralells 7 up and running?
I would think entering the exact same "network info" as appears in my Mountain Lion "Systems Preferences - Network" window, would get me internet connected on Paralells 7 Snow Leopard? Evidently not ... what is needed for me to get this right?
Anyone have experience getting "ethernet/internet" connected on Snow Leopard Server, using Paralells 7?

Since I have been directed to: "NOT waste everyones time on this discussion" the only thing more I am going to do after this post is click on: "Stop email notifications" and never return to this thread again!
Internet access through Ethernet in Snow Leopard Server installed into Parallels 8 on 2011 Mac Mini in Lion:"
I simply don't want to purchase and have to install Parallels 8 .... Parallels 7 should work fine on connecting to the Internet. Also, I was asking about the internet connection issue with the new 2013 iMac (running Mountain Lion 10.8.3 runiing Parallels 7), not a 2011 Mini Mac running Lion with Parallels 8.

Problem with my internet connection with Mail and others

Hi
I seem to have a problem with my internet connection that is through Ethernet. I have just downloaded the update to iLife 9 and the down load speed went from zero to 1.1BB/s but most of the time it downloads at speeds around 8KB/s also Mail some times returns mail sent but there seems to be no problem sending out only that things go faster out than in. My internet speed from my ISP is 500KB/s so as you can see I was at first happy that I was getting speeds in of 1.1MB/s. I have done a diagnostic test through network also fully run Norton and finally run utilities with no problems showing. My ISP is willing to come and have a look at my internet but I some how think it's my computer, any ideas?
Thanks

The first thing I would do is completely disable Norton AntiVirus; there are no viruses for Mac OS X, so it can't protect you from something that doesn't exist. It can, however, severely slow down your system. Do that and then restart Mail and see if the problem continues.
You should also try creating a new User account and test Mail there to see if you experience the same problem; if so, then the issue is systemwide. If not, it's something specific to your regular user account.
As for your download speed, it's not 1.1MB/s; it's 1.1Mb/s. Upload speed is slower than download speed for both Cable and DSL service. I doubt the problem is your modem/router, but you should try shutting down your Mac and the modem for a few minutes. If your modem/router has a reset button, use it, then restart it and your Mac and see if the problem continues.

Is that a -50 error message, jolyn?
If so, perhaps try the "Error -50," "-5000," "8003," "8008," or "-42023" section in the Specific Conditions and Alert Messages: (Mac OS X / Windows) section of the following document:

Ned, thanks for responding. Internet access is not the problem, I will have a tower computer connected to Comcast.
Isolating the laptop from the internet is the issue.

Organizer elements 11. Problem with your internet connection

I am trying to access facebook and Flickr via the Organizer with elements 11. I went to preferences and cleared the oline services, when I try to refresh the partner services I am greeted with the error " there is a problem with your internet connection, check your firewall settings" .
Windows 8, updated. I tried disabling the firewall. I have also tried making sure permissions are set up to allow all adobe products access through the frewall when it is enabled. No other network managment services or virus scanners installed. just default 64bit windows 8.
I am currently left with no partner services; facebook, flicker, picasa, etc.... I could reinstall organizer i guess to get the default services back...
I found discussions on the web but none with a solution. http://forums.adobe.com/message/4035670
Any help would be great

I apologize for the delay. An update was released shortly after I posted the question that resolved the issue. Thank you for your assistance though. As soon as I read your advice I went to my laptop to follow your instructions. Upon opening photoshop I was prompted with an adobe update message. After the update the issue was resolved. Again, sorry for not updating the situation.

Download CC versions for installation on a computer with no internet connection

So I have just signed up with CC as I am wanting to get Photoshop and lightroom
So I have a computer with no internet access, and so I would like to download the CC versions of the software on my work computer.
Once downloaded, I will install the software on the computer with no internet connection, then utilise my mobile phone to teither the computer to the internet to register the products.
So my question is how do this?
Downloading the software using the manager on my phones internet is not an option. (with 300mb per month quota on the phones not an option)
I am wanting the CC features of photoshop not CS6 so registering the cs6 version is not an option.
Also when updates come out for CC where can download those.
(we have had a change of govt so I might get 24mb/s internet in 2019)
thanks

Hi Paul,
Welcome to the Community!
You can certainly download the files on a different machine and install on a computer without internet however you should connect to internet once in a month so that we can charge your credit card.
The option to connect to internet with phone will work however updates needs to be downloaded via internet as the size might be in GB's.
To download the executable files, visit this page http://prodesigntools.com/adobe-cc-direct-download-links.html. Remeber to follow the Very Important instructions or else the download will not start.
Thanks!

I'm having problems with my internet connection after installing OS X Lion. Is this a known problem or just a local problem?

I'm having problems with my internet connection after installing OS X Lion. Is this a known problem or just a local problem?
After +/- 10 to 15min my connection is gone.
Does anyone have a sollution?

Lots of people are having the same problem, you're not the only one, belieeeeve me.
Just Googling the problem gets you tons of people complaining about the same thing, SOMETHING is up with Lion what wasn't happening with Snow Leopard. i just bought a new Imac and it CAME with Lion, so i started experiencing this internet dropout immediately.
It's been going on for the most of a year it looks like (at least by the dates from the threads i've been reading)
So your best bet is to fiddle with the System Preferences and read what other people have used to make theirs work. i'm doing that myself right now. I already posted a similar thread last night trying to figure out why my connection kept on dropping, i got a reply which linked me to a site. i followed the instructions there, so far so good, but i'm just being cautiously optimistic.
i'm gonna call Apple today and see if they've found anything, though seeing as this is a problem right out of the box there may not be an immediate solution. Good luck hunting for a solution :3

How do I maintain license on systems with no internet connection?

I will be installing CS6 on PCs with initial internet connection, but they will be moved into a space without any internet.
How do I keep the CS6 working without the connection?
Is there a license file I can download then apply to the systems without the connectivity?

Hello Scott,
Adobe has prepared this informations: https://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/policy-pricing/activation-network-issues.html
>>> Additional information for users who are temporarily unable to connect >>> ...I quote:
What happens if it's necessary to be offline for a while?
The Creative Cloud software makes a call to Adobe servers once a day to verify the account status.
If the account is in good standing (that is, payment is up-to-date) when the last call happens, the software status is refreshed to run for at least 99 days while being offline.
Note: Signing out and signing back in (while online) just before going offline for a long period ensures that the software works for at least 99 days without needing to connect.
The software still reminds you to connect to the Internet during this time. These reminders can be suppressed until the last 30 days, when a daily message prompts you to go online and refresh the software status.
