Guest Ipod touches and husband's iphone can no longer connect to internet with airport. But Ipad2 works and so does hard wire computer. where is the problem and how do we remedy
WiFi connections no longer working on Iphone and guest's Ipod Touches. How do we remedy this problem. The Ipad2 and hardwired computer are working with no problem
I had the same problem -- only iphones couldn't access wifi all of a sudden. I solved it this morning by uploading a previous firmware version to my Time Capsule. The solution was offered in a different discussion in the iphone section, which I found at https://discussions.apple.com/message/15180888#15180888 :
Eureka thats the problem
The iOS 4.3.2 and 4.3.3 for iphone is not compatible with the firmware 7.5.2 for apple airport extreme and time capsule. If the WiFi router is an apple airport with firmware 7.5.2 an iphone with the updated firmware will not be able to detect and connect to the WiFi network.
Solution The iphone firmware can not be downgraded, the airport firmware has to be downgraded
1) Make sure that the settings of your Airport Extreme are in mixed a/b/n mode
2) Open Airport Utility
3) Select Upload Firmware from the BaseStation menu
4) If you current version is 7.5.2, click Upload Firmware
5) Select 7.5.1 from the pop up menu
6) Restore Firmware
Now the WiFi network is detected and connected perfectly as before upgrading the iphone to 4.3.3.

I have been given to itunes numerous times by Apple. ITUNES have referred me back to Apple as I may not have the current software on my IPOD TOUCH, model MC086LL. I have purchased/downloaded songs, but they will not sync to my IPOD. ITUNES again said this is an issue with the IPOD TOUCH software not them. Does anyone know how I can get this resolved??
Carolyn Samit, what are yo saying? He say he has a MC086LL at iOS 4,2. That is a 2G iPod. The software update comes with iOS 5 and the 2G can only go to iOS 4.2.1
For 31MToweVe
31MToweVeWhat happens when you try to sync?
Was the iPod previous synced to another iTunes library/computer?
Have you successfully synced from this iTunes library/computer before?
Do the songs play in iTunes?
Do you have the right boxes checked to sync?

Try syncing using the manual method if you have not yet tried that. -
Can no longer connect to internet with wireless router.
For almost a year I've had a wrt54g ver 6 connected on my computer with my cable modem and my sons computer with the compatible pci card. Everything worked fine until a few days ago, I came home and could not get on the internet with my computer. My son could, but not me. I didn't change anything at all. So I reinstalled the router drivers and I still can't connect to the internet, but now neither can the other computer. What could be the problem?
micheleit sounds like you might have to clone the mac address of the computer that was originally connected to the cable modem. clone mac address can be found on setup tab after log into router.

IMac G5 isight Can No longer connect to internet over Airport
I have an iMac G5 that has been working fine on my Airport Extreme wireless network for 3 years. Suddenly, I can no longer access the internet over my Airport connection. The computer is on my local Airport network wirelessly (I can access it from my laptop and share files). I can connect to the internet from 4 other computers connected to the same wireless Airport network (2 MacBook Pro's, 1 Powermac G4). In addition, if I connect my iMac to my laptop via a twisted pair ethernet cable and turn on internet sharing on my laptop, my iMac can connect to the internet. All systems are running 10.5.5 and no firewalls in place. I checked my internet preferences and they have not been changed from what they were before when it was working. DOES ANYONE HAVE ANY IDEA WHY SUDDENLY IT STOPPED CONNECTING TO THE INTERNET OVER MY WIRELESS AIRPORT CONNECTION?
I have just experienced the same situation. Everything was working fine and now I can't connect to my airport from my macbook pro. I also have an iMac G5 working perfectly well on the same airport.
Could it be a latest update that has caused the problem? -
Can no longer connect to internet via airport
My roommate and I have wireless internet. I used it all last semester with no problems. Sometime in December, I was unable to access the internet (Firefox, Safari, tried both..) here in my apartment, even though Internet Connection shows a full signal under our Airport network. When I went home, wireless worked just fine on this laptop - same when I'm at a library with wireless.
I've tried restarting the wireless router, no success. I'm only able to access the internet when I'm plugged in directly to the router.
Any suggestions?Um it's an AT&T DSL wireless router. Yes, my room mate uses the wireless. On my computer in the top right by the airport signal, when you click it, our network is shown with a check next to it, so it must be the signal from our router.
There's an IP address when I unplug my computer from the router (when the web pages cannot be displayed), but when I plug it back in to use the internet, there isn't an IP address - just an IPv6 address. -
My iPod shuffle says that there are 9 songs on it, but it will only play two of them. What is the problem and how can this be fixed?
Does the iPod connect to other networks?
Does the iPod see the network?
Any error messages?
Do other devices now connect?
Did the iPod connect before?
Try the following to rule out a software problem:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Power off and then back on the router
- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
- iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
- iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

pamalushka54,
We want to make sure that we get your phone up and running. Can you look to see where you have the most stuff stored at. Settings>General>Usage>Storage.
This will tell you what exactly is using everything. Then you can delete things from there.

My iPhone 4 no longer connects to my car or alarm clock after a recent sync to my computer. The message at I get when trying to. Connect is "this accessory is not optimized for the device" or something like that. Anyone know how to fix this?
Hello there philp_69,
If I understand correctly it sounds like your phone hasnt been recognized in iTunes on your PC since the last couple of updates. I would use the troubleshooting in the following article which will walk you through the steps one by one.
iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch not recognized in iTunes for Windows
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

Updated my ipod touch to ios 5.1 can no longer use iMessage. Help?
I updated my iPod Touch to the new ios 5.1 the other day and since then I am having trouble with my iMessage, th send button is constantly greyed out and when I select my other iphone/ipod imessage users it tells me that they are not registered with iMessage when they qute clearly are? I've looked at a number of forums and just cannot find any answers! I'm baffled!
If you are messaging an iPhone, you may use the phone-number of the iPhone to iMessage them without a problem. When you are attempting to connect to an iPod Touch or iPad, you must use an email address as that is how Apple can identify the iPhone. However, you have to be careful. This email might not be the email they use everyday or the email that is used as their Apple ID. They may have chosen to use a different email to associate specifically with iMessage. This should not have any dependence on the operating system (I am using iMessage on an iPod Touch 4th generation iOS 5.1 without a problem). However, you might be making some mistake in your procedure or there may be a bug in the iMessage tied with iOS 5.1 that was able to reach you but not me. I suggest that you, if your warranty has not expired, contact support for iPod Touch, for iPhone, or for iPad. If all else fails, you should make an appointment with an Apple Genius Bar for free!

IPhone can no longer connect to AT&T network, just says No Service1
Ever since I returned from a trip to Canada my iPhone has been unable to connect to the AT&T network. It worked fine before I crossed re boarder into Canada last week and while in Canada it was able to connect to the Rogers network.
Since I crossed back into the United States, sometimes it will connect to the AT&T network for a few seconds (never long enough to make a call) then show no service.
To try and fix the problem I have
-shut off the iPhone
-reset the iPhone
-ejected and reinserted the SIM card
-verified my AT&T bill was paid
-reset network settings
None of that worked.
If I turn Airplane mode on and then off, it says Searching... for a while before going back to No Network.
Also, the unit is able to connect to WiFi networks with no problem.
Any suggestions for how I can get my iPhone to connect again to the AT&T network?
Thanks!
Message was edited by: The ZachThank for the advice. The phone is not a 3G (i probably should have mentioned that).
I brought it into the Apple Store. The genius couldn't figure out the problem, so he gave me a new one. -

Advised me to go here and go through iTunes support. do here we are
Please help me get this sorted as I have an iPhone and no apps.!!
Thanks mike.You can use the Tab key to select a search engine on the bottom bar and press Enter to use the search engine to do the search.

In the current Firefox 34 release there is a new "one-off" search bar.
This search bar doesn't show the name of the search engine and a logo.
You can type one letter to make a drop-down list appear where you can see suggestions and see the used search engine and that also has bar at the bottom where you can select other search engines that are enabled via the Search tab in Options/Preferences.
You can use the Tab key to select one of the other available search engines and press the Enter key to search with the selected search engine.

We updated our computer a while back to 10.9.2, but once it was complete we no longer use excel or word as the files were missing for them, plus our epson printer wouldn't work, it said something like the files for this printer could not be found, we tried to reload the printer using the disc as the printer was less than a year old but the computer would not load it probably, I called epson and they replied that there was a problem with the update and has done something to the mac driver, has anyone else had a problem with this update? and can it be sorted
Don't use the CD--it is almost always out of date. Just add the printer using Print & Scan System Prefs and it should find the correct drivers.
If not, go to the Epson website and download the current ones.
If you need the bundled software that comes on the CD, download it from Epson.
What version of Office was it? 2004 won't run on any OS after 10.6. Office 2008 and 2011 will run.
However, it should not have deleted any of your Documents.
If it was Office 2008 or 2011, try reinstalling it. I've found that Microsoft products have a hard time with change. It's like when you remove the pagoda from a goldfish bowl. To the goldfish, the world around them has changed and they freak out. Sometimes you can calm down the Microsoft products by reinstalling them. -
