Have 3 itouch 2 will connect to internet 1 won't

We have 3 touches, 2 will connect to wireless in house but one will not. settings are the same on all 3. One that won't, will detect wireless house but when trying to connect it comes back with "can not connect". Most of time it does not have the wireless icon in top left corner but the other 2 do and they connect. The one that won't did at one time, are they conflicting with one another??? (not sure, haven't heard anything like this, just inquiring)

I have a similar situation but unfortunately no resolution.
Setup:
Comcast modem connected to Airport Extreme various Macs connected through Airport.
Black MacBook - 10.4.8 connects fine, Internet, Mail, ..no problem.
iBook G3 - 10.4.8 same, works fine.
17" G5 iMac - 10.4.7 gets full Airport signal and DHCP IP, but will not connect. Sometimes it will not even get an IP until I reset the Airport.
iBook G4 - 10.3.9 same problem as iMac.
I tried deleting prefs, pram reset, and a number of other things. I wonder now if maybe one of the 10.4.8 computers updated the Airport so that it will no longer work with other earlier systems. I will try to update the iMac to 10.4.8 by downloading the update on another computer and transferring it, since it cannot connect to the net. Will Post the results.

  • Wifi will connect but internet won't work

    So my iphone 4 will say its connected to the network (check mark beside network and good signal) but when I try to open a web page/app store/youtube it says "cannot open page not connected blah blah blah" some of my friends iphone 3gs' work no problems. also I'm in Spain and my data roaming is turned off but the cellular data is still on.(don't know if that helps but thought I would mention it.)
    Thanks in advance.
    also I've tried resetting the network settings and that did not help either.

    OK, that is good information for troubleshooting. Since it works on other networks the problem is either the router or corrupted settings on your phone. The first thing to do (if you can) is to reboot the router. The DHCP daemon in it may have crashed - this is very common. Just unplug it for a few seconds, then plug it in again. Also, if you can, verify that the router has the latest version of firmware available. As to why other phones work it could be that they had connected before the DHCP deamon crashed, and are reusing the original IP address.
    Another possibility on the router side is that MAC (Media Access Control) filtering is enabled. This is a router feature that allows only previously approved devices to connect to the router. If it is enabled your phone must be added to the "allow" list in the router.
    Finally, on the router side, it's possible that it has run out of IP addresses. This can happen if it is used by a lot of people. It would be necessary to change settings in the router to fix it.
    If the problem is on your phone the first thing to try is to attempt to connect, then tap the ">" next to the network name and choose "Forget this network". Then back out of settings and reboot the phone (hole HOME and SLEEP until an Apple logo appears, about 10 seconds). After rebooting try to connect again.
    If this fails next go to Settings/General/Reset and Reset Network Settings. You will lose WiFi passwords, but nothing else. Again reboot and try to connect.
    One of these will most likely fix the problem. If one does please tell us which one, and if nothing helps let us know that also.

  • I have a Mac connected to Internet via DSL modem. Just bought iPad (today). What hardware do I need to set up wireless LAN so iPad can be used anywhere in house? Will Linksys work with Apple?

    I have a Mac connected to Internet via DSL modem. Just bought an iPad2 and need to know what hardware do I need to add wireless LAN so I can use iPad anywhere in the house. Will a Linksys router work with Apple? Can Mac be "hardwired" and iPad wireless? Probably stupid questions but I need to learn. Thanks.

    Thanks for the info. You are correct. I was speaking in general terms here based on my experience with the two devices in day to day use, and not in terms of exact specifications.
    A better choice would have been to say that the "coverage" is about the same with the edge going to the Extreme....due to the newer mutliple antenna design.
    We sure could use more help on the forums. Hope that you will become a regular.
    Hi Bob
    RF is a minefield, but one that I have worked in for ages, the most critical factor in my experience is location, location, location!
    Better routers have more intelligently designed antenna systems, output power as I said is the same, radiation pattern (coverage) is dependent on antennas and physical location more than all other factors.

  • Mac OS X will not connect to wifi, airport is broken, will connect to internet with ethernet cord. Is there an accessory I can buy to replace airport so I don't have to use ethernet cord? Please help!!

    Mac OS X will not connect to wifi, airport is broken, will connect to internet with ethernet cord. Is there an accessory I can buy to replace airport so I don't have to use ethernet cord? Please help!!

    Since the MacBook Pro currently works, you should put it next to the iMac and compare the network settings for AirPort in System Preferences Network pane Advanced. Also, if you want to start off with the default network settings, you can use Location drop down menu and select +Edit Locations+. Then click the plus sign to create a new location. Set up that new location.
    On System Preferences Network pane, AirPort should appear at the top of the list (in the sidebar). To change the service order, click on the gear icon and select +Set Service Order+.
    Some additional tests you can try, on top of seeing if it works with (1) WEP security disabled and (2) a direct wired connection to the router.
    If you get it to work with either (1) or (2), be sure to run Software Update at least two times to apply any recent updates from Apple. See if that makes any difference to using AirPort with WEP back on.
    (3) Start up in Safe Mode
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1455
    I don't know if any third-party software has been installed on the iMac at this point, but Safe Mode will start up with only the essential Apple extensions and processes running. See if it works any better in Safe Mode.
    (4) Create a new admin user account in System Preferences Accounts pane
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.6/en/8235.html
    Log out and log in to the new account. Try connecting with AirPort in the new account.
    (5) Connect the MacBook Pro to the router with a wired Ethernet connection. Make sure its Internet access works. On System Preferences Sharing pane, set it up for +Internet Sharing+ so that it is set to +Share your connection from Ethernet - To computers using AirPort+. On the iMac, try to connect to that wireless network and access the Internet.
    That last one (5) may be a good one to try first. It would at least show that the iMac's AirPort is working - you can even set it up to use WEP. If you have any questions about using the +Internal Sharing+ feature, please ask.

    Lelisa it is only necessary to connect to the internet periodically to receive updates and validate your membership.  If you have an annual membership you can be offline for up to 99 days.  You can find additional details at Activation & Deactivation Help.

    Turn your router completely off (unplug it) for a few seconds, then turn it back on again and see if you can connect.

  • 4 Macs, 2 will connect to Internet via Airport, 2 won't

    I have Airport Extreme with four computers linked wirelessly. All "see" the Airport and can share files with each other, but only two (the Apple PC's) connect to the Internet while the Intel Mac's don't. I have checked apple setup, network, everything and can't figure this out. When I run network diagnostics the results claim the airport express doesn't have a static IP. It's no problem with the Mac PC's...
    I don't have these problems at home with Airport EXPRESS.

    I have a similar situation but unfortunately no resolution.
    Setup:
    Comcast modem connected to Airport Extreme various Macs connected through Airport.
    Black MacBook - 10.4.8 connects fine, Internet, Mail, ..no problem.

    I have the same issue, too. My New Yorker subscription is fine, always has been. But my Conde Nast Traveler subscription won't work. I can get to the screen where you enter your information (either with name and address or subscription number and zip code), but once I press Continue I get the error.
    I emailed Conde Nast's customer service, and this is what they said:

    That didn't work. I tried the restarting the iPad, as someone here suggested, but that didn't work, either. Interesting that this seems to be a Conde Nast issue - my NY Times and National Geographic subscriptions are just fine, too.
    I'm afraid I'm not sure what the guidance in this knowledge base article means: "Check security software. Ensure that communication to gs.apple.com is allowed. Follow this article for assistance with security software." How does one do that on one's iPad?
    I actually wonder if it's a firewall issue. Are any of you attempting to enter this information at work, for example? I am, and my company has a firewall/proxy that gives me issues sometimes. I'm going to try to find a wifi hotspot at lunch to see if it'll work there.

  • 8520 will connect with internet via wifi but won't receive or send emails

    have recently changed my carrier/service provider and all is set up to recieve texts, use the internet (default setting to hotspot) but now won't let me send or receive emails. I've gone to email set up in setup and tried to re-establish my email link but it keeps saying 'your device had a problem connecting to the server' - how can this be when it connects to tthe server for normal internet use?
    Any ideas gratefully recieved.

  • Firefox will connect to internet/load pages but Safari won't!

    This is a larger issue but I thought I'd put it here since the Safari aspect is what bothers me the most.
    I've done a lot of fiddling around with my network connection settings trying to connect to a dialup connection shared through a wireless router (the less said about that, the better). In the process of trying to get that working I've done something to my settings that has limited the ability of certain apps to connect to the internet. Since discovering the problem I've tried 6 different wifi networks and the result is the same:
    I can connect to:
    Firefox (browsing just fine)
    Azureus
    Skype
    I CAN'T connect to:
    iTunes
    Mail
    Safari
    Essentially, I have no idea what I've done and how to fix it! I'm using Tiger so no Time Machine. A couple strange things have happened since this has started. When I try to connect to certain wireless networks keychain asks for permission to use the passwords for all the previous networks I've been connecting to. So I went into Keychain to see if I can delete the saved passwords for these networks (I no longer use them) and I get the following error: 100013 An error occured while deleting "Network Name".
    Is there some way to delete the locations in Network Prefs and start over? Any other ideas on what exactly is going on?
    Thanks!

    Hi
    Welcome to Apple Discussions
    Your questions is broader than just Safari. I suggest you repost it in the Tiger Getting On-Line & Networking forum. Someone there, knowledgeable about these kind of network issues, will help you.
    Good Luck

  • Itunes store won't connect to store but will connect to internet.

    this happened to me before but it fixed itself when i updated my software.
    now it doesn't work again, it's not the firewall, because i've tried with it both on and off.
    there are also no more updates to install.
    i can't sign into my itunes account, and the error i get says the network connection time timed out or something.

  • IMac the only one that will connect with internet

    I have a wireless network set up in my home office. I have an Airport wireless router and my internet service is through Frontier with a Westell 6100 modem that is probably five years old. When I set up my WiFi network with the 27" iMac, Airport Express and modem everything works fine... not super fast but DSL is all we can get out in the rural areas. I can access the internet with no problem. When I try to connect to the internet, through my WiFi, my iPhones, iPad & Macbook Pro will not connect. I can see the WiFi signal on everything but when I try to connect to the internet or email accounts, I get nothing. I have taken all of these to Strabucks and they connect just fine but at home only the iMac seems to work. This is very frustrating.
    Appreciate any help or suggestions you can give.

    This may take a while to solve, but we can go through the steps a little bit at a time.
    First of all, what generation extreme are we talking about here?

  • Will connect to network but none of the browsers will connect to internet

    i have a powerbook g4 12 in. that i have been using on my pcs wireless network for about 6 months with no problems. last week something happened where now i can only connect to the internet through aol or aim. neither internet exp. or safari are able to connect. also, itunes cant connect to the music store. the p.book is connecting to the network and i have tried deleting that network form my powerbook and refinding it. any help is greatly appreciated, as i am a fairly recent mac convert. i am running osx 10.4.3
    powerbook 64   Mac OS X (10.4.3)  

    I am experiencing this exact problem as well. I usually connect at home via a Linksys wifi network. Everything worked fine until about Dec 23, after which I could connect to the network but no web pages. I can see via IP address, print via print server, see the router configuration page, but no domain names will load in any browser. The weird thing is that no other computers on the network (which I administer) have had a problem, and no changes were made to either the powerbook or the network. On a road trip last week, I found I could connect to some other wifi locations (one was airport, one unknown)via dns, but could not on some other previously known good locations.
    I have tried manually entering DNS numbers in the airport configuration, but that didn't work.
    Any suggestions?
