FireFox works, but nothing else with TC

Hello!
I recently have begun experiencing problems with my 2 week old TC. I just moved and I am receiving my net from a rental apartment in a college town. The plug into the net is simply an ethernet jack. I don't know who provides the service.
My TC only works with FireFox and not safari, itunes, or checking for updates. Yet, another mac that's in the same room as me has no problems working with safari, itunes, firefox, or software updates.
This is troubling as everything worked on both computers perfectly at the old place, which also was just an ethernet jack into the wall. The mac TC is not working with is my iMac, and it's working fine with a PowerBook G4. I'd like to also say that network diagnostics does not find any problems and says everything should be working. I am hoping for some insight into this!
Thanks

I'd like to simply mention that I solved the problem already and to provide the reason TC wasn't working (or perhaps any wifi!).
I had recently tried to get my iPhone 3G's application NetShare to work on my iMac and I had manually put in a port and IP address that the computer would use or maybe only use. Anyway, in getting rid of that, it easily found Safari and everything is smooth.

  • 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.

  • 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 can click on the "iPod Click Wheel Games" and it works, but NOTHING else. Any suggestions?

    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 mouse works but nothing else on my iMac is responding. Rebooting doesn't help. I'm having major issues. Help!

    My iMac is not frozen; the mouse works, nothing else does. It all started with the iOS7 launch...
    I attempted to update my iPhone 4 via WiFi and it crashed. Wouldn't respond to synch, charge, turn on. Notta. My dad plugged it into his iMac and it turned on, miraculously, I was practically on my way to get a new phone. Once it was back on, I attempted to update from iTunes on my desktop. No dice. I took the plunge and tried to update on WiFi again and was successful. I plugged my phone into my computer to sync music and iTunes wouldn't recognize my phone because my iTunes wasn't updated. My iTunes wouldn't update because my iMac software wasn't up to date. My desktop "update" claimed it was current. So...
    I tried to download iTunes fresh, wouldn't open. I deleted my iTunes to try to download iTunes again and I'm now stuck here. It will shut down and restart if I hold the back power button. It will reboot to the same state. I have other devices but I'm emotionally attached to that computer and it cost a pretty penny. Any one have advice? Oh, and when I unplug and replug there  is no change...
    Thanks in advance. Rebecca

    Thanks in advance. Rebecca
    Can't access spec due to issues
    If the iMac is frozen and you can't get to the specs, when did you buy the computer? I ask because this forum is for iMacs made before 2006 but, due to Apple's non-intuituve forum label choices, people with newer Macs often end up in this forum with little traffic.
    Also the troubleshooting for the 2006 and newer iMacs can be different from the older ones.
    You can try inputting your serial number (on the bottom of the computer's stand, most likely) into this Apple page:
    https://selfsolve.apple.com/agreementWarrantyDynamic.do
    That can often give you the model.

  • Airport Extreme Problem. Guest network works, but nothing else!!!

    An hour or so ago, my network stopped working. My guest one works, but not my main 2.4 or 5 ghz network. I tried the Airport utility but it can't read the configuration file. HELP!!

    Please power down the AirPort Extreme and your computer.
    Temporarily, connect an ethernet cable from your computer to one of the LAN <-> ports on the AirPort Exptreme.
    Power up the AirPort Extreme first, then your computer
    Open AirPort Utility, click Manual Setup
    Click the word "Status" and a window will open with information about any errors on the AirPort Extreme.

  • 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.

  • Facetime works with USB UVC gearhead webcam but nothing else does

    I have a gearhead USB 2.0 webcam that facetime easily see but nothing else does
    It is a model WC4750AFB from gearhead it uses USB 2.0 Connectivity with UVC and Facetime sees it but I can not get any other applications to use it
    Why can one app on my mac mini find and use it suxxesfully and others can't. This is really stupid. There is no basic instruction onhow to setup facetime or find out how it can see the webcam and it would be nice to know so I can get it working with my other app on my MAC mini

  • The bookmark feature has stopped working, I can only bookmark my homepage (google search) but nothing else.

    Firefox is simply unresponsive when I try to save a page as a bookmark, I have tried clicking the star in the URL bar, using ctrl-D, right clicking on the page, and saving from the bookmarks tab. None of these options do anything at all.
    I have tried turning off different add ons but have not had any success. The only time I can get it to save a bookmark is if I bookmark my homepage, then it will save that, but nothing else.

    This can be a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

    Run the cleaner tool and reinstall with sufficient user privileges and security stuff turned off. Your install went wrong because you didn't consider this.

    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.
