E2000 wireless problem only with Mac

Two weeks ago I left on a vacation and now my internet doesn't work on my Mac.
This is my network:
2 Windows Laptops
1 iMac
2 iPhones
2 Apple TVs
1 External Network Hard drive
Everything works but my iMac...
the iMac connetcs to the home intranet but not to the internet.
Any ideas? I have already created a new wireless conecction with new name and password. Updated to the lastest, not Lion yet, but I don't think it should matter.
I open to anything... thank you.
Ed

This has happened to me before. Try deleting the old network on AirPort, reboot your Mac, create a new location and see if you can connect.

Get a lens cleaner disc. One with brushes and try that. CDs and DVDs use different lenses, so since CDs load and play, I strongly suspect a dirty lens.

Sharing Linksys Wireless Print Server with MAC and PC - How to do?

I have lost the capability to share a printer on my network by using the Linksys Wireless Print Server-model number WPS54G -V2. Prior to having to return my previous Print Server on an RMA, I was able to use the MAC and PCs on my network. I have a PowerGook G4 with MacOS X 10.4.10. I also have a Airport Extreme Base Station V5.6. The printer on the network that is being shared is an Epson Stylus Photo 820. Recently, when trying to reconfigure the network, I updated the software on the Airport Extreme...so I think after that, I am no longer able to share this printer using current network configuration. As information, I will share how I got the network to share the printer BEFORE I had to replace the previous Print Server and BEFORE I updated the Airport Extreme. Please see this link:
http://www.macosxhints.com/article.php?story=20050406151311940
Even though this was for a different type of Print Server, this worked for me.
When reconfiguring the new Print Server, I contacted Linksys...as had some difficulty until I found out how to assign a static IP to the new Print Server. When trying to talk to them about the Mac issue, and sharing the printer, they shared this link with me...which may be helpful to some, but I found that this does not work for me...
http://www.macosxhints.com/article.php?story=20060404021600193
I have been trying to work through the issue, but feel I may now have some compatibility issues between the Airport Extreme and the Epson printer.
Further details are that I use 10.0.1.78 for the assigned IP address for the Print server. My router (which is the Airport address) is 10.0.1.1. I have tried IPP printing option, LPD printing option...and IPP printing at least returns a status on the Print Server as "printing" as opposed to "idle". I have checked the Print status on the Mac, and I have received two (2) different error messages as to why the print job failed. They are:
"the process "picwpstops" stopped unexpectedly with status 1"
and
"the process "rastertoprinter" stopped unexpectedly with status 1"
The latter happens when I follow the instructions on the second link I attached on this topic...with the only change being that I select IPP printing as opposed to LPD printing.
Anyone that has any insight into HOW to configure the mysterious settings for Mac OS printing so that it can be compatible with a Wireless Print Server, please feel free to comment. In the meantime, I am thinking that the links above could help some people...just not me at this point given my current configuration and versions of software/firmware and perhaps the printer I am using.
Greatly appreciate your consideration, and any suggestions to anyone that might understand what these error messages mean when checking the printer status after sending a file for printing.
Thank you

1. No, you don't have to make a bootable clone.
2. If you use the drive for a bootable backup, then you cannot use the drive for other types of storage unless you partition the drive and make more than one volume.
3. No, it will not try to boot the computer. You must designate the startup volume using Startup Disk preferences.
If you wish to use the drive on both a Mac and a PC, then either you make two partitions - one for Mac and the other for the PC or you must format the entire drive using FAT32 so the drive can be used for read//write by both operating systems. If you do this then you cannot use the drive for a bootable backup nor can you use it with Time Machine.
FAT32 is slower for read/write on the Mac than using Mac formatting.
Optimally, I would suggest you partition the drive into two volumes. One volume formatted for the Mac and the other formatted FAT32.
You can send files from a PC to a Mac and vice-versa using File Sharing. Select Mac Help from the Finder's Help menu and search for "file sharing" or "sharing" to find help articles. Also see,

Install failure due to "faulty DVD" problem: only with Family Pack?

After going through a few threads on the subject of installation failure due to tbe pseudo-faulty DVD, I have the impression that many users mention that they were using a Family Pack install DVD or in one case a "drop in". The former is my case. Please post if you have had this problem with Leopard install, and whether you were using a single licence, family pack or drop in. It's just a hunch, but perhaps this problem only affects a specific set of disks.

I believe that they are holding back on sending a new DVD until they know why there were defective ones. I read somewhere that they require a new SKU so that they will actually be a separate batch.
Can you borrow a DVD from anyone to install Leopard? You certainly would be allowed to legally do that. I am surmising that Apple is overloaded with requests for a replacement DVD and really want to make sure it works. You know that old thing about "fool me once..."
Stuff happens - but with Leopard, a lot of stuff sure happened at once. They sold 2 million DVDs. If only 5% have problems, that's a lot of problems to deal with, one at a time.
In time it will sort itself out, but in the meantime the rooms are full of smoke

Imac intel - which wireless option compatible with mac/pc

I really appreicate some advice about going wireless. I am on telewest broadband (now virgin broadband) I have an imac intel which has an Aiport card inside. See below:
AirPort Card Information:
Wireless Card Type: AirPort Extreme (0x14E4, 0x89)
Wireless Card Locale: Worldwide
Wireless Card Firmware Version: Broadcom BCM43xx 1.0 (4.80.79.1)
Wireless compatibility with Mac and PC
My son has a pc laptop (will wireless automatically see both mac and pc in the same house?)
I have been googling without success - because a lot of the jargon is beyond me.
Hope this is okay to post here.
IMac Intel Mac OS X (10.4.9) purchased early 2006

Welcome to Apple Discussions!
You might find that MacCam (http://webcam-osx.sourceforge.net/) can help with a compatible driver for that device - it's by no means sure, but the MacCam project does support a number of Logitech USB webcams.

Officejet Pro 8600 wireless print option with Mac OSX Snow Leopard?

Hi My 'old' 8600 printer died and I purchased a new one. I did not set up wireless communication with the old printer but am interested in doing so with this new one, or at least having that option.
I'm running Mac OS X 10.6.8 Snow Leopard. The installation CD that came with the new printer says it's for OS X v10.6, Lion or Mountain Lion. Is it compatible with my system?
Thanks!

Hello KelliMK, and welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience!
I see you are looking into compatibility information. The Officejet Pro 8600 is compatible with Mac OS X 10.6. The software disc should allow the full install without issue.
As for the wireless setup, I would recommend following this document on HP Officejet Pro 8600 All-in-One Printer Series - Installing the Printer Software on a Wireless or W...

Airplay iphone problem only with music player

I have seen many discussions relaiting to airplay problems and now that I own both an iPhone 5s and a Bose Soundlink Air. I have discoverd there is possible a problem with Apples' software with the music player.
I have sucsessfully played music from itunes from three Macs in my house to the Bose SoundLink Air via wi-fi. All worked perfectly. I also used Remote from three iPhones, 3G, 3GS and 5S and again all worked fine. I have also used a radio app on each of the three phones and airplayed the radio direct to the Bose Soundlink Air and it all works perfectly.
However, when ever I play music (on the phone) direct to the Bose Soundlink Air, I get the usual complaining from other users of the sound plays for 20 seconds or so then cuts out etc. etc.
As mentioned above, if I play radio direct it works so why can't music (as its now called) on the iPhone. Seams to me the bug is in the music player that Apple has on the iPhone.
I might try another player (like VLC) and let you know if that works then we will know for sure the bug is with Apple.

Okay, Spoke to Bose and explained the problem. He said that because the air play was dropping out with multiple iPhones then the problem was with the unit. He told me to return the speaker system, which I did.
So here's the interesting part...
I then purchased a set of Bose Computer speakers (cheap one's) and a new AirPort Express and found the same thing was happening, 'Airport drop outs'. So I swopped over the new AirPort for my old Airport Express and that has worked perfectly for the past half week.
So my conclusion which I have yet to discuss with my local Apple Store is the new AirPort products are not totally compatible with the old Airport products.
BTW I am using a 2nd gen Time Capsule to send out my wi-fi signal (may be time for an upgrade) but it works perfectly with all the rest of my old Apple stuff (and so far our new iPhone 5s's).

"@font-face" problem only with firefox. I have attached a style sheet while i was embedding my personal fonts into a website, but Firefox won't load them. Why?

I was hand coding my new website. This time i was trying to embed some personal fonts into my website, so i used a style sheet to embed which is coded like
"@font-face {
font-family:Sofia;
src:url(../fonts/Sofia-Regular.otf);
All the font work fine in the root folder of my site. But whenever i am creating dreamweaver templates and using them on pages which are in different folders but in the same root directory, the fonts are set back to default font. This problem is only with Firefox. Chrome, IE, Opera etc. works fine. Please Help!

i run into the same problem the last days.
using bootstrap and the fontawesome iconfonts.
everythings fine with chrome an ie, but no fonticons with firefox...
found alot of solutions, but none of them worked.
then, using the webdeveloper console (i used firebug all the time before) i see the error why the webfont was not loaded:
[14:18:36.161] GET http://www.example.com/font/fontawesome-webfont.ttf?v=3.2.0 [HTTP/1.1 401 Authorization Required 21ms]
yes, the site is behind a '''htaccess''' login.
first load after login is => everything ok!
after following an internal link => no webfonts!
after disabeling the htaccess login, everything works fine!
but that can only be a workaround!
why firefox didnt recognize the login/authorization like chrome does?!
what todo if you have your site behind htaccess and want to use webfonts?!

Problems only with Adobe ImageReady Animated GIF

Anyone encounter a problem and solution for getting ImageReady animated GIF working properly in a java app? Developer placed 2 animated gifs in the app which caused the CPU system resources to spike to 100%.
We then tested animated GIFs made from Macromedia Flash and also a freeware animated GIF editor, and both work out fine in the same java app.
It's odd, but we think there's a problem specifically with animated GIFs produced by Adobe's Image Ready in the Creative Suite 1 package.
Anyone have more insight?

Its been a long time since I have used ImageReady, and then it was for about year when CS3 came out. So my memory if very rusty with that program. (In other words I am hoping that I am not too far off base, lol.)
Check and make sure there are the same number of layers as there are frames. I believe there is an option in the animation palette for sending the frames to layers. Once you know that the frames and layers match (plus any additional layers you create), you can clear out the animation and reapply the layers to frames.
You should find a small icon in the upper right hand corner of the animation palette and the layers palette. Clicking them will bring up a menu that will do what you need.

Premiere Pro CC import problem only with last .VOB file

When I import .VOB files from any DVD into Premiere Pro CC, the last .VOB always cut picture from both sides. When I click to see properties of the file (in Bin panel) it shows me that image size is 540 x 576 instead of 720 x 576. The video isn't shrunken but cut off. I got two black bars on both sides of the screen (in Premiere Pro CC). That wasn't happened with CS6 and now it happens always and only with last .VOB file. All other files from same VIDEO_TS folder are imported correctly. When I convert that last .VOB to .avi or any other format everything is OK. Any suggestions?

Yes it works, but I have no time to convert file every time I need something archived that way. I used that method years ago, and if I'm not wrong we are progressing a little Most of today options you have in Premiere 5 (maybe even in earlier versions; I'm using it from version 5.1) and it worked. So if you think like that, why we need version 7.2.1 ? Actually this is 14.2.1 version if you count from version 1 back in 1991.
It's not about to manage, it's about to have what you pay for, it's about to speed up the process.
Thank you anyway for your comment

E2000 wireless problem

Hi all,
I'm using E2000 currently and meet a wireless connection problem.
The speed can up to 300M bps. When I confiured the E2000 to band auto (20-40mhz) and my wireless network card to work at also auto (20-40) mode, it always down to 144M speed when connection.
If I changed some settings in E2000's wireless configuration, in the status sheet I can see it works at 40MHZ. But after a while,(5-10 mins) it automaticly down to 20MHZ and my labtop connect only got a 144M speed.
how can I deal with that to make it always keep at 300M connection? Note the previous router I used to connect to my lattop can always keep that speed.
Thanks a lot,
Ken

You can't force 40 MHz.
Read this forum. You'll find a couple of threads on this topic.
The E series routers seem to revert quite quickly to 20 MHz when they detect interference. Remember, that 40 MHz on the 2.4 GHz basically allocates 2/3 of the whole 2.4 GHz band and thus has much interference with other access points on the 2.4 GHz band.
I suggest you make some measurements. Transfer a large file between a wired and a wireless computer. Test it with your old router on 300 Mbps and on the E2000 with 144 Mbps. You may find that the actual transfer rate with 144 Mbps is higher than with 300 Mbps.

Monitor problems imac with mac osx 10.6.3

I have tested several monitors ( dell 3008wfp and dell 22 inch monitors) with my mac mini, and everytime the same error pops up with my fotographic and medical imaging software: 24 bit colors is not available... with loss of color depth as a result.
In monitor settings only one of the two monitors is recognised but both get the background dysplayed ( and the correct name is displayed in the upper bar of the corresponding window) the large 30 inch screen the info screen says "unrecognised monitor". I can adjust the exact resolution ( max for both) and hz but not the " how many colors I want to display. Funny thing is , when i put the monitors on my macbook ( os x ver 10.5.8) also the smaller one is recognised ( with the correct name) but here I can have the selexion "millions of colors". When I use the same software on the macbook, everything is OK.
Where can I find this setting for this millions of colors thing on the mac mini?

I experienced same problem while trying out CS5 Premiere Pro. Had mercury engine stopped working after 10.6.4 upgrade. It seems Apple did something to kill CS5 acceleration. Bet Final cut will have cuda acceleration soon ))).

Ipad 2 phantom touching. I have read several forums about phantom touching, but this seems to only happen to our ipad when it is really low on battery. We reset it to factory and took to Apple. Anyone have this problem only with a low battery?

The problem seems to happen when the battery is low. It seems fine now that the battery is fully charged. I took it to Apple Genius and they ran a diagnotic test and everything checke out fine. The tech told me to watch it and if it hapens again they would replace it. It is only a month old and we are already having problems with it. Does anyone know if there is a fix in the works or is the only fix to replace it?

Not normal. Take it to an Apple Store for evaluation.

Wireless printer compatible with mac book pro

what wireless all in one printer is compatible with a mac book pro(snow leopard)

You would use AirPort Utility for this. It's located as follows on your Mac:
Hard Drive > Applications > Utilities > AirPort Utility
Click Manual Setup
Click the Wireless tab below the row of icons on the setup page
Click the Options button
The option to create a "closed" or "hidden" network should appear. If the box is checked, uncheck it to perhaps help your printer find the wireless network
If you can connect to your wireless with your computer, you know the wireless is working correctly. You should probably contact HP for additional assistance as this appears to be an printer issue, not an AirPort Extreme issue.

Problems syncing with .mac via airport extreme

When I try to sync my calendar via .mac I get an error can't connect to .mac sync server. There does not appear to be a problem with idisk syncing.
When I use a hardwire connection I do not have a problem. I have no problem browsing or streaming itunes music using the express nor printing. It has been suggested that the signal being sent is not of sufficient "quality" for the .mac to accept the link.
Is this likely? Is it possible to alter the configuration of the airport to result in a stronger more stable link? I would be willing to sacrifice some speed for this reliability.

Therefore I was wondering if it's possible to connect my external drive to an extrem airport and to listen at the music from my mac via i-tunes to my stereo ?
Yes. You just need to point iTunes on your Mac to the new location for its Media Folder on the AirPort Disk attached to the AirPort Extreme Base Station (AEBS).
