Connects to printer, but nothing else.

Alright... I, like everyone else, am having problems setting up a home network. I have a PC that needs to directly connect to the Airport Extreme Base Station, and then multiple laptops connecting wirelessly with a printer hooked up as well. My laptop can wirelessly print, see the network, everything, but it just cannot connect to the internet or anything on the network. The PC can't do anything on the network. I have tried to do a hard reset of the AEBS and everything seems to connect but the internet. Is there something I am missing?
I have a Cable Router sending the signal to the AEBS, and it says that there is all kinds of activity. I need to know what settings to use.
Save me.

For Pc's, the best solution is to download and install Apple "bonjour for windows" software. You launch the printer setup wizard and select your printer...and that's it...

Iphone show connection to printer, but nothing is printing

iphone show connection to my printer, but nothing is printing.

One thing you might try is to download the (free) Epson iPrint app from the App Store. See if that app sees your printer, and, if so, try the "Maintenance" button in the lower left, including its "firmware update" (which is under "Printer Settings"). Make sure the iPrint shows the ink levels.

I can print a test page from my Mac to my HP Officejet Pro 8600 but nothing else will print

Hi - I just recently had a hard drive crash and had to revert to an old Time Machine backup on my new hard drive to get my Mac back. Since getting back up and running I have been unable to get my Officejet Pro 8600 back online. My computer is wired to the wireless router but the printer is running wireless. My computer can see the printer just fine and I can even print a "Print Quality Diagnostic" report from my Mac to the printer from the HP utility. But nothing else will print. The firmware is up to date. I have tried resetting the printing system multiple times, rebooting the machine, etc... Nothing works. Any help would be appreciated.
If it helps, we were using a different printer the last time the time machine was backed up, so when we used that backup the old printer was showing, but I reset the printing system, so it shouldn't matter.
Thanks for your help!

Hello @Ryan221,
Welcome to the HP Support Forums! I see your hard drive recently crashed and now you are not longer able to print to your HP Officejet Pro 8600. I see you have reset the printing system with no success. Let's try a different approach:
Scrub/ Uninstall
• Open the Applications folder > HP or Hewlett Packard folder > HP Uninstaller
• Click continue, click on one of the printers in the list.
• * Only do this step if you do not have any other HP Printers. Hold down Control, Option and Command, While holding the three buttons down,
• Click uninstall.
Reset Printing System
1. Click the Apple icon ( ), and then click System Preferences.
2. In the Hardware section, click Print & Fax/Scan. The Print & Fax/Scan dialog box opens.
3. Right-click (or Ctrl +click) in the left panel, and then click Reset printing system…
4. Click OK to confirm the reset.
5. Type the correct Name and Password.
6. Click OK to reset the printing system. The Print & Fax dialog box shows no printer selected
Note: This will remove all printers in the print and Fax/Scan, any printer removed can be re-added later by clicking the plus (+) symbol..
Repair Disk Permissions
1.On the Dock, click Applications, and then click Utilities.
2.Double-click Disk Utility.
3.Highlight your hard drive/partition on the left (by default this is "Macintosh HD").
4.Click the Repair Disk Permissions button at the bottom of the window.
5.Once the repair is complete, restart the computer.
Restart the printer. Now you can download and install the printer software and install it. Click on the link below to begin the download and follow the on screen instructions:
HP Officejet Pro Full Feature Software and Driver - Mac OS X 10.6, OS X 10.7, OS X 10.8
I hope this helps, please let me know the outcome!

Ok, tried message boards everywhere to try and figure this out before having to post a question. Have a 21.5" iMac running Snow Leopard 10.6.8. After updates no wireless capability for ipad or laptop, imac connects fine but nothing else.No widgets work.

Ok, tried message boards everywhere to try and figure this out before having to post a question. Have a 21.5" iMac running Snow Leopard 10.6.8. After updates no wireless capability for ipad or laptop, imac connects fine but nothing else. No dashboard widgets work, Skype won't work. What goes?

Your post is pretty lengthy and I have to admit I didn't read it all. Please try restarting in Safe Mode, if that doesn't work please do both a SMC and PRAM reset. These may take 2-3 attempts.
SMC RESET
Shut down the computer.
Unplug the computer's power cord and all peripherals.
Press and hold the power button for 5 seconds.
Release the power button.
Attach the computers power cable.
Press the power button to turn on the computer.
PRAM RESET
Shut down the computer.
Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command, Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
Turn on the computer.
Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys. You must press this key combination before the gray screen appears.
Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
Release the keys.

ACE 4710: Possible to allow a user to clear counters but nothing else?

Hello all,
Using an ACE 4710 we have a user setup with the Network-Monitor role which allows the user to view config, interface status, etc. We would also like to allow this user to clear the interface error counters as well, but nothing else. Is this possible?
Thanks!

Hello Brandon-
Network-Monitor only lets you browse outputs, it is a not a role that allows a user to make any changes including clearing stats. You can create custom roles and domains to get closer to what you want, but you cannot zero in on a single command like that.
i.e.
ACE# conif t
ACE(config)# role MyRole
ACE(config-role)# rule 1 permit modify feature ?
AAA             AAA related commands
access-list     ACL related commands
connection      TCP/UDP related commands
fault-tolerant Fault tolerance related commands
inspect         Appln inspection related commands
interface       Interface related commands
loadbalance     Loadbalancing policy and class commands
pki             PKI related commands
probe           Health probe related commands
rserver         Real server related commands
serverfarm      Serverfarm related commands
ssl             SSL related commands
sticky          Sticky related commands
vip             Virtual server related commands
You can create a permit or deny rule, within that, create/debug/modify/monitor each feature seperately.
Domains allow you to create containers for objects. You can place specific rservers, serverfarms, etc. into it - then apply it to a role so that the user assigned to it can only touch those objects.

Chris Higgins

Hello Bruarong,
It sounds like you are unable to print to your printer from Mac OS X Lion. I recommend the troublehsooting from the article named:
Troubleshooting printer issues in OS X
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3147
Follow these steps until the issue is addressed:
Make sure that the printer is powered on, has ink / toner, and that there are no alerts on the printer’s control panel. Note: If you cannot clear an alert on the printer's control panel, stop here and check the printer's documentation or contact the manufacturer for support.
Ensure the printer is properly connected to a USB port on the Mac or AirPort base station / Time Capsule. If the printer is a network-capable printer, make sure that it is properly connected to your home network.
Use Software Update to find and install the latest available updates. If an update is installed, see if the issue persists.
Open the Print & Scan pane or Print & Fax (Snow Leopard) pane in System Preferences.
Delete the affected printer, then add the printer again.
If the issue persists, try these additional steps:
Reset the printing system, then add the printer again.
If the issue still persists, reset the printing system again. Download and install your printer's drivers. Then, add the printer again.
Contact the printer vendor or visit their website for further assistance.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Take care,
Sterling

When I click on "App Store", the loader gets stuck on "Contacting iTunes Store..." I can click on the "iPod Click Wheel Games" and it works, but NOTHING else.

I was having this problem. The settings on my wireless router was set to hide my IP address so it wouldn't connect. When I changed that, I connected no problem. While this is annoying since I don't want my IP address to be out there, I just switch my router when I need to connect to the App/iTunes Store. Hope this helps. It worked for me.

My iphone 4s got wet and shows the apple logo when charging but nothing else?

When i hold the home button in and its on charge the apple logo will appear for 5 seconds then go but nothing else, with out being connected for charge nothing happens.

It's water damaged. It is not in warranty. The warranty was voided when it got wet.
The replacement phone will inherit the balance of the original warranty or 90 days, whichever is longer.

At App Store I see that Facebook needs updating. However, when I click on "update" the blue circle appears but nothing else happens.

At App Store I see that Facebook needs updating. However, when I click on "update" the blue circle appears but nothing else happens.

The blue circle should go around, clockwise, as a fine line, and then as a heavy line indicating it is downloading. Then it sits while the install takes place. It may sit and wait to start the download if the internet connection is slow.

When I turn it on the apple appears but nothing else happens??

I have Ipod touch when I turn it on the apple appears but nothing else goes on help??

What happens if you try a hard reset? To do this, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.
If its still stuck at the Apple logo, try connecting it to your iTunes library in recovery mode and restoring it.

My Mac Pro is not displaying any images for videos or games, it is showing sound and working but nothing else. DVD player is also coming up with an error.

Lao Bo,
yes, you can locate and copy a file from your HD to a USB key using UNIX commands. If you know the exact name of the file which you’re trying to locate, try this:
find / -iname filename -print
This command will search your entire internal disk for the particular filename. If you know that it’s within a particular user account, then you can save search time with this variation:
find /Users/username -iname filename -print
Either variation of this command will print all files found which have the given filename. Presuming that you’re able to identify the correct file, you can copy it to a USB key using the command
cp -p filename_returned_by_find /Volumes/USB_volume
If you’re not sure which volume name your USB key has, this command will show you what the possibilities are:
ls /Volumes
Please let me know if you have any trouble with these commands.
