Getting timeout on a network but is ok on pc or other macs

Basically i am getting a network timeout on a mac but works forever on other devices please help me with a solution please.

Do you have any anti-virus or firewall software installed? Is the firewall in System Preferences/Security & Privacy turned on? If so, try disabling them and see what happens.

How does one do a two way contacts sync between an iphone and outlook? Most of the community has answered as this to be "always so", but it does not work! Changes made on outlook get done in my iPhone, but it does not work the other way around!

TS1559 Since upgrading my iPhone5 to the newest iOS (6.1.2) I can longer connect to WiFi. It sees the wireless network but will not connect.. Other devices in my home that weren't upgraded can connect just fine.

I had the same problem. I did the reset networks on my iPhone & it did not work. My husband read somewhere that changing the channel on the router to manual & selecting the highest available channel number might help. I did that & it solved the problem. I have not had the problem since.

Mac and PC in the same network, but I can't see PC from mac, nor mac from pc

I have 2 Mac and 1 PC in the same network (both connected to a wifi router ). I can see the other mac from one of my mac, but I can never see my pc in my mac , nor mac in my pc. Help!

In Finder, along the left hand side, is a group called "Shared". Click on it, and it shows all other computers on the network.

HT203433 roughly 30% of my songs do not automatically download but the rest do. and if i try to retrieve from cloud...the same "network refused" error message appears. yet my other mac works perfectly doing same thing.

title says it all. I have two mac laptops and iphone and ipad. everyhting syncs perfectly expect my new macbook air. about 30% of songs fail to download due to network failure. But if my other devices works fine...then why not this one.
second, when I try to download from cloud, I have same problem and same can't wont download at all.

MacBook Pro can't see Airport network but three other macs in house can

Very strange. I can connect my three iMacs (G3, G5 PowerPC and G5 Intel) to my Airport Extreme Network, but my MacBook Pro can no longer see the Network, and Airport utility (from MacBook Pro) cannot see the Airport base station (although other macs' Airport Utility can no problem). My MacBook pro can see 4 other networks (my neighbours' networks). Doesn't seem to be a problem with my MacBook Pro airport card as I can connect to the (non-Mac) wireless network at work with no problem. Am really confused (not the first time)!
Installed the latest Airport Extreme firmware last week, which was the start of the problem, as I then lost the ability to connect to my Virgin Media Broadband digital TV box, necessitating Virgin engineer visiting at weekend to connect a cable modem to the cable tv box, to which the Airport Extreme station is now attached. Had problems connecting my MacBook Pro last night, but eventually managed it. All other macs connect seamlessly. Am stumped.

I'm troubleshooting a friend's MacBook (Model ID: MacBook4,1) that is having serious Airport problems. This machine's Airport can't see ANY available networks. Sitting right next to my MacBook (identical model), hers is blind while mine can see several open and locked networks including my own Airport base station. If I choose to "Join Other Network..." and enter the network name and password for my network, her machine almost immediately gives me a "Connection timed out" error. It doesn't matter where her MacBook is, it can't see any networks anywhere.
This is a new problem as her Airport was working fine for the first few months. I've just finished making sure all software updates have been applied so she's now running the latest-greatest, but still no Airport.
This sounds similar to the problems other folks here are describing so I figured I'd add my voice to the chorus. I guess I'll take her machine down to the local Apple store this afternoon and see if they have any ideas. At this point I wouldn't be surprised if her Airport card was fried.

Macbook Pro not seeing other Macs on network

I have a network of 7 Macs. Some are connected with ethernet, some connect via Wifi. I have a Verizon router with a wifi transmitter and an Apple Airport Express. Both the router and the Express use the same network name. I have configured the Express to extend the first network. I use WPA security.
I have file sharing and screen sharing enabled on all of the computers.
Today a MacBook Pro (10.6.3) has had trouble seeing any of the other machines on the network. It can access the internet and send email, but it cannot access the server that has its TimeMachine backup drive, nor can I get it to see any of the other computers on the network.
I have run Repair Permissions and re-started. I recently did do the latest OS 10.6 update which updated Java. (Java for Mac OS X 10.6 Update 2)
What can I do to help this machine see the network?

Yes, every Mac is on the same subnet. This machine is behaving strangely. The inability to connect to other computers went away and now is back. It has always been able to connect to the internet, but it still cannot connect to other Macs on the network.
Would interference between the Verizon router wifi transmitter and an Apple Airport Express be a possible culprit?

try disabling email scanning for incoming mail.
One of the last things that occurs is the mail server and Thunderbird sign off on "where we are up to" and Thunderbird stores this state information in the popstate.dat file in your profile (there is one in each POP mail account folder). If the anti virus, or you for that matter, end the conversation a few seconds early that hand off does not occur and the popstate is not stored.

I just got my ipod and i have networks but it wont let me make a password i have tried to find my wi-fi password but i can't is there an app where i can get wi-fi off of it please some one help me i can't do anything on my ipod

You need to contact the people who administer the networks to get the passwords for the networks. If there was such an app as you are asking for then passwords for wifi networks would be worthless.

I'm staying at my house in Peru, South America. From my PC laptop I can see my neighbor's wifi service network, but I also have my mini iPad and I can not figure out why I can't get any wifi connection from my area. Is there a setting I need to do?

Yes, I did try to go on my settings>wifi and was waiting for any wifi signals to pick up, but nothing shows up. But on my PC I get a whole list of networks to choose from. Regarding my neighbor, I already have her password that is why I was able to get it on my PC, the problem is that the mini Ipad is not picking any signal neither can it locate me when I go to maps.

HT2250 I have been able to get my MacBook Pro to print wirelessly through my Airport device. How do I make it so other computers (non-Mac) can also print wirelessly as well? They are able to connect through my wireless network but can't print.

Well, you could install the drivers to the wireless printer in you other computers.
blue apple > System Preferences... > sharing
check printer sharing.

Try the manual method specified here:

I hit Forget Network and now cannot get back onto my wireless home network. All of my other computers and iphones are fine. How do I get the network back? It shows in my list of networks but when I use the password and try to join it says not connected.

See if the iPad will accept the password after you restart it. It's worth a try.
Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
You could also try a reset as well.
Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
