Ethernet no worky in osx but does in parallels windows

I have a MBP 17" and cannot use the ethernet connection in OSX. Try to visit a web page and it says that I'm not connected to the internet. I have tried everything I can figure to get it to work to no avail. The weird thing is, I have parallels installed and a vm with Win XP Pro and while I have no connection to the internet in OSX I can browse and do anything inside Windows running inside OSX.
Also, while I have the ethernet cable in it locks up my wireless internet connection in OSX.
Luckily I have wireless at the office but can't get to the network printer via OSX using wireless.
Any thoughts or ideas would be appreciated.

Well.. i have thought of that after i read the Repair Program news.. but again.. in windows it runs everything.. Crysis 3 in highest res.. No screen errors wich i read should be the sign of a damaged card..
No heat problems either.. in OSX it never gets hot.. because of the non-use.. and in windows it warms up fine and keeps fine at 50degrees with half fan speed.. and cools down emidiatly after I exit games..

  • DHCP in Hotel does NOT work on OSX but DOES work in bootcamp

    Staying at the shiny new rennisance hotel in boston MA. I have a Macbook Pro and 2 macbooks with me. with the wired ethernet, NONE of them will get an IP address. However, when I use bootcamp and boot into Vista, it works fine!
    Any suggestions?

    Funny you should ask - I had this same problem last night at the Residence Inn in Washington, DC. Even stranger for me, I found that my MBP could not obtain an IP, but when I ran Parallels, the Windows XP instance could connect. As Parallels was getting its network connection from the Mac OS, I still haven't figured how that was possible...
    Regardless, is the hotel using iBahn? If so, I spent some time with the iBahn tech rep and was able to come up with a solution by setting all the network properties manually. Every time I renewed my DHCP lease, I would obtain an IP address (10.x.x.x) and hold it for about 2 seconds before it would disappear. By watching what IP address I was given, I was able to set up my Network Properties manually:
    System Preferences -> Network -> Ethernet
    Configure: Manually
    IP Address: 10.x.x.x (whatever the DHCP server tries to give you)
    Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
    Router: 10.x.x.1 (where the first two x's are the same as your IP)
    DNS Server: 172.16.2.5, 4.2.2.2
    You might try calling iBahn if you need help with this. They can watch your network port (by telling them the hotel's phone number and your room number) and tell you what IP address the DHCP server is assigning to it.
    I hope this helps!

  • Display ethernet doesn't find IP, but does work with manual IP

    My MacBook Pro is connected to my thunderbolt display. Recently the display ethernet stopped working. When I set the setting on 'Using DHCP' it doesn't find an IP address. I can select 'Using DHCP with manual address' and choose a random IP address and it works fine. The wifi also works fine (so that does find an IP address using DHCP...).
    Any ideas how to solve this? Is it a mac or a router problem?
    Thanks in advance,
    Rugen Heidbuchel

    If you remove display ethernet in the Network menu then add it back in does it find the IP address?

  • USB Headset doesn't work on Mac OSX but does on my WinXP Bootcamp partition

    Hi all,
    I bought my FIRST Mac 2 days ago and am very excited about the migration. My reality is that I need WinXP for work-related activities and so I successfully installed Bootcamp and both WinXP and Mac OSX is working fine.
    My problem is with a brand new Logitech USB Stereo Headset 250. It works just fine on the Windows XP side, but I can't get it to work on the Mac OSX side. Is there something I should be 'turning on' to get the headset to work? Like I said, it just 'worked' when I started up with the WinXP partition but when I restarted in the Mac OSX partition, it doesn't work.
    Apologies if this is a simple thing that the veteran Mac crowd is snickering at as they read this, but I truly want to use the Mac OS as much as possible and if I can't get the headset to work on the Mac side it won't be a good thing.
    Any suggestions?

    Got it (sorry all) - I went into the System Preferences and selected the USB headset from the 'output' tab.

  • Installed new 160 GB HDD ... Trying to now install OSX But does not see hdd

    BUT... When I go to Disc Utilities, it reads my new disc...
    So, Now what do I have to do???
    Do I need to format new hdd??
    If so... How do I do this???

    Hello Rhonda,
    You just need to format it in Disk Utility first, new HDs almost always come with Windows® FAT32 formatting.
    Click on the icon/name that shows up on the left in Disk Utility.
    Click on the Erase Tab to the right of that.
    Beside Volume Format:, choose MacOS Extended (Journalled), give it a Name if you wish... any name you wish.
    Click on the Options button, choose Zero Data, then OK.
    Select Erase button.
    When it's done you can quit DU and install.
    Don't worry, you can do this, and there is almost nothing that can go wrong!

  • MBP Retina won't turn on OSX, but will turn on Windows 7?

    So when I turn on my Macbook Pro Retina, it boots up as normal, (the white background with the Apple logo) but then a progress bar appears at the bottom, as if it were updating. It loads to barely anything, then disappears and shows the spinning loading symbol, then turns off.
    But when i hold option while booting, i can select Windows 7, which im on right now, and it will boot up perfectly fine.
    I've tried an SMC reset and turning on both plugged and not plugged in.
    Worked perfectly fine last night
    Standard 15-inch MacBook Pro with Retina display: 2.6GHz with Mountain Lion, by the way

    Reinstalling Lion/Mountain Lion Without Erasing the Drive
    Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion: Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion and click on the Continue button.
    Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.
    See OS X v10.6- Gray progress bar appears under Apple logo during startup.

  • ITunes downloaded, but does not open-Windows does not support Mac script

    I have recently bought a Toshiba laptop with pre-installed Windows Vista. I have managed to download iTunes, but I cannot open it. The computer posts a message saying that it does not support Mac script. I suppose that I need additional software (daemon tools?)? I would be grateful if someone could advise me in relation to this issue.
    Toshiba Satellite   Windows Vista  

    No, you should need nothing additional. I suspect you may have tried to download the Mac compatible version of iTunes & that's why your getting this message. Make sure you have checked the Windows version & nothe Mac version on the download page.

  • I am trying to reinstall Mac OSX, but my computer does not read installation cd

    Hello, I am trying to reinstall Mac OSX, but my computer does not read installation cd. After restart, I hold C but either eject cd or doesn't read and computer boots up normally. I even ordered a new pack of installation cd, but still the same problem. Is there anybody can help me fixing this issue, because my Macbook pro has lots of software problem and when I spoke to tech, they said it needs to reformat and reinstall the OSX to solve all my problems. Please help me to reinstall my OSX!

    Possible solutions:
    You need to hold the c key down before booting
    You need to use the built in keyboard, you have other hardware connected
    You need the machine specific 10.6.4+ disks for that machine, the retail 10.6.3 disks won't work
    There is a firmware password on the machine preventing the at boot key command functions
    Try the option key for Startup Manager to boot from the disk, right after the "bong"
    Your Superdrive lense is dirty or not operating, other hardware issues
    You have malware of some sort

  • Configuring the time capsule airport wlan function as "connect to wlan", the time caspule gets a correct IP adress from the other wlans IP range, but does not assign this to the ethernet ports. With Airport Express it worked!

    Configuring the time capsule airport wlan function as "connect to wlan", the time capsule gets a correct IP adress from the other wlans IP range, but does not assign this to the ethernet ports. With Airport express it worked, the single Ethernet port got the IP Parameters passed through!
    My setup is a Vodafon Esaybox connected to ISP. Time Capsule is not able to extend the wlan of the easybox, neither airport express can do.
    Only the option "connect to wlan" is succesful.
    With airport express I was able to connect my Sony Bravia TV to the lan via ethernet to stream pictures, the TV set got an IP adress from the easybox.
    With the time capsule the easybox dosn't find devices connected to the ethernet ports to submit IP adresses. The TV set get another IP adress (169.xxx.x.x.) in subnet mask 255.255.0.0 and I don not now where from.
    My notebook is a MacBook pro.
    Any idea????
    Thank a lot in advance!
    Kind regards
    Ingo

    Neverthe less, could there be the chance, that this feature could be implemnented with an firmware update?
    That would appear to be a question for Apple to answer. You can make suggestions to Apple here:
    Apple - AirPort Extreme - Feedback
    If the AirPort Extreme and Time Capsule are configured to "extend a wireless network" they will provide additional wireless coverage....and...the Ethernet ports are enabled in this type of setup.
    The "catch" here is that you must have an Apple router providing the network to be extended.

  • When I plug in my iPhone to sync, it starts but does not complete the process and several pieces of data are not being transferred to my iPhone from my MacBook Air.

    Problem:
    When I plug in my iPhone to sync, it starts but does not complete the process and several pieces of data are not being transferred to my iPhone from my MacBook Air.
    Any help that you can provide in helping my iPhone accurately sync with iPhoto and iTunes will be greatly appreciated.
    Symptoms:
    1)   Sync:  It’s not completing the sync.  Below, I’ve provided all of my settings from the iTunes Summary tab so that you might tell me if I’ve selected any incorrect options.  I prefer to sync the “old school” way – by connecting to the computer – as opposed to syncing over the cloud. Perhaps this is what’s causing the problem? Here is a list of the steps displayed in the iTunes window as the sync progresses:
    waiting for sync to start (step 1 of 7)
    backing up (step 2 of 7)
    preparing to sync (step 3 of 7)
    determining apps to sync (step 4 of 7)
    preparing apps to sync (step 5 of 7)
    importing photos (step 6 of 7)
    waiting for changes to be applied (step 7 of 7)
    syncing apps / copying 1 of 4 (App name) (step 7 of 7)
    canceling sync
    apple icon
    2)   Photos: I've selected only certain of my iPhoto albums to sync to my iPhone.  All of the albums are correct/complete in iPhoto.  All of the albums are listed on my iPhone, both before and after the sync, but the albums are empty (no actual photos) before and after the sync. Perhaps this is tied to the fact that the sync isn’t completing, but because “importing photos” is one of the steps that the incomplete sync displays, I don’t know.
    3)   Apps: When I launch iTunes and click on the Apps folder under the Library listing, then click on the Updates tab, iTunes searches for any Apps needing to be updated and provides a list.  If I click on Update All, the Apps are successfully updated in iTunes.  But, when I plug in my iPhone so that the updates will transfer to the apps on my iPhone, the updates don’t transfer to the apps on my iPhone and those apps still reflect that they need updating on the iPhone.
    Other Potential Pertinent Info:
    The flash memory hard drive on my MacBook Air recently died (perhaps a month or two ago).  Apple had emailed me about a known issue and literally the next day, my MacBook Air crashed.  I installed a new flash memory drive and re-installed everything from a backup off of an external hard drive.  Everything seems to be working fine; it recreated accurately all of my software and data, including iPhoto and iTunes, the pictures and songs (respectively) for which are stored on that hard drive, as opposed to being on the flash memory in the MacBook Air itself.  However, I don’t recall if the start of the sync problem described herein started happening at the same time that I replaced the flash memory drive.  All I know is that the computer is working perfectly in all respects and that even as the sync is failing, it at least says that it’s doing the right things and looking in the right places (e.g., the list of albums on my iPhone matches the list of albums in iTunes, etc.).
    Settings/Status:
    MacBook Air
    OSX v. 10.9
    iPhoto ’11 v. 9.5 (902.7)
    iPhone iOS 7.0.4
    iTunes v. 11.1.3 (8)
    Summary Tab
    Backups (This Computer)
    Options
    Automatically sync when this iPhone is connected
    Sync only checked songs and videos
    Photos Tab
    Sync Photos from iPhoto (429 Photos)
    Selected albums, Events, and Faces, and automatically include (no Events)
    Albums – 9 are selected

    You need to download iTunes on your computer. iOS 6 requires the latest version of iTunes which is 10.7.

  • I have an eMac which I want to connect to my home wireless network. My router is D-Link-601 tech 802.11n. My emac is wireless ready but does not contain an airport card. Do I need a card and an airport station? What else?

    You need the Airport card OR Airport Express but not both.  Considering the age of your machine, I recommend Airport Express as you will find other uses for it whenever you replace the eMac.
    To set up the AE, you do need OSX 10.4 or higher.

  • HT1752 iMac flat panel 2003 shows airport but does not connect

    Hi,iMac flat panel 2003 shows airport but does not connect

    No problems.
    Let's double-check your iMac's Internet Sharing configuration:
    To setup for Internet Sharing (Wired to Wireless):
    Setup the Network
    Cable Modem > (Ethernet cable) > \[Ethernet port] iMac > (wireless) > MacBook
    Enable Software Firewall (iMac)
    System Preferences > Security > Firewall
    o Block all incoming connections (enabled)
    Enable Internet Sharing (iMac)
    System Preferences > Sharing
    o Select "Internet Sharing" from the options in the left column
    o Share your connection from: Built-in Ethernet
    o To computers using: AirPort (checked) (Note: Uncheck all other entries in the list.)
    AirPort Options... (iMac)
    o Network Name: <anything you want>
    o Channel: Automatic
    o Enable encryption <do NOT enable at this time>
    o Click OK
    o Select "Internet Sharing" again
    o Click "Start" to start Internet Sharing
    o Click Start
    Please verify these settings, and try accessing the Internet from the MacBook again. For this exercise, I suggest co-locating the MacBook with the iMac.
