Dell laptop won't connect to server.

I know this is an issue for others and I've tried my darndest. Here's the set up. I'm trying to get online with a Dell Laptop. The Dell laptop shows that it is connected to my Airport Express, but when I try to open Internet Explorer, I get the message saying,"not connected to the server." I do not have WEP on. Any ideas?

I solved the problem. For the others out there with the same problem, you need to open Explorer, then go to Tools, Internet Options, Connections and figure out what needs to be changed. You have to change your proxy, etc.

  • My iCloud email on iPad keeps saying it won't connect to server.

    My iCloud email on iPad keeps saying it won't connect to server. Tried removing and adding iCloud back on device already. Says last update was Thursday (3 days ago). I don't use this email much but got a few emails and attachments I need for work from that address. I logged in online from another computer and it worked. Any ideas how to fix this now? I do get email from other accounts and do have internet connection.

    I think you have to turn off Private Browsing.
    Tap "Private" on Safari Screen to disable Private Browsing. When top of screen is white, Private Browsing is off.

  • My nokia e mail won't connect to server

    My nokia e mail won't connect to server please help i've tried everything i know

    Thanks for your response. 
    I did that already.  I did the full maintenance treatment:  Disk Warrior, followed by Applejack AUTO (which does a permissions repair and caches clean), followed by three PRAM zaps.
    In accordance with Murphy's Law, it started working again about the time your post came in, but it had been hours of it not working after running the aforementioned gauntlet.
    I have my doubts whether it will keep working.  Meantime, Mail is humming along on my MBP.  If you have any other ideas, I'd love to see them!
    Cheers,

  • DW8 won't connect to server in Vista

    Hi all,
    Tearing my hair out trying to get my DW8 suite to run on my
    new laptop running Windows Vista Home Premium. Used it for 3 years
    on an XP machine with no problems.
    It won't connect to remote server. Those buttons are greyed
    out. Based on the messages I've read here, I've tried:
    1) Run as Administrator
    2) Compatibility with XP
    3) Excluded it from Firewall
    4) Turned off Firewall
    5) Uninstalled and re-installed.
    Am at my wits end and hope you can help. Thanks!
    Nancy

    Glad you sussed it out (subsequent follow up), put your hair
    back in!
    Don't forget to install the 8.02 patch if your install didn't
    include
    it.

    Most common problem I've seen in here is that 8.0 can forget
    your FTP
    login criteria. The patch cured that, I think.

    I have an iMac lab running 10.3 in my school. Two of the computers when the students try to connect to server won't let them. They can connect to server on other computers but not these two. Any ideas why?

    Are you running Mac OS X Server setup with Home directories on the Server, or just casual File Sharing off one Mac designated as the server?
    Are all the Macs set up to get their IP addresses via DHCP?
    Are the Macs that can't connect trying to use an address like 169.254.xxx.yyy ?
    All wired to the same Router? Any using wireless connections instead of wired?
    Can you use Network Utility to "Ping" the Router?
    Can you use Network Utility to "Ping" the server?
    Do you get an error message or just times out? What error message?

  • Won't connect to server, other browsers will

    Firefox recently stopped working. Is unable to establish connection to server. Both internet explorer and safari still work but I don't like them as much as firefox. I tried removing firefox, downloading and reinstalling- no luck. I tried removing it from the firewall access list and then adding it back in-no luck. The computer came with Mcafee virus protection but the subscription expired about 6mo ago and it won't let me alter any settings it might have. I don't think this is the issue as firefox was working fine before. Checked the network connnection settings and same as the other browsers - auto detect proxy settings. Don't know what to try next. Couldn't find any more in your help section.

  • Playbook won't connect to server or web, although shows wifi connected

    I have a PB that I had been using in US and all the features were working without any problems. I recently traveled to India. The PB worked fine at the Frankfurt airport (in transit). However, since I have reached India I have tried to use it at the residence and have been facing problems. I have saved the wifi and the PB shows itself connected, but, when I try using the PB video chat it says "couldn't connect to server". The emails are not updating. When I try to update them it again says "unable to connect to the email provider server". I am not able to open any web page either. They all time out.I have tried rebooting the PB and the router. 
    Has anybody else faced similar issues? I am getting desperate as I didn't bring my laptop and was relying on PB to get most of the work done!

    Hi steelman15 and welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums!
    To test, and verify that its not a problem with the Wi-Fi router, can you try connecting to another Wi-Fi hotspot.  The web and video chat should be available on the BlackBerry PlayBook while travelling to India.
    Thanks.

  • Encoder won't connect to server

    I've followed all online instructions precisely,but Falsh Media Live Encoder 3.2 won't connect to Adobe Media Server 5. Please help. Thanks.

    Most of the time is is due to;
    Ports or firewall blocking connections
    Settings put into FMLE are not correct, check FMS URL for spaces and the Stream key not being what was expected.
    Application no present on the server
    Good way to debug is to use the Admininistration panel that Adobe provides in the FMS install.
