HP Printers Don't Work Over Wifi

With my two HP printers (Color LaserJet 2605dn and OfficeJet 7300) neither of my Macs with Lion or Mountain Lion can print to them when on Wifi. On a wired connection it works fine, but not on Wifi. When you try to print it just says cannot communicate with printer. I can't even re-add the printers in system preferences because it can't find them when it searches (on Wifi that is). I can ping the two printers successfully on Wifi. Any thoughts?

Anybody?

Blackberry Apps like Facebook and Whatsapp don't work over wifi, what should I do?

My BB AT&T 9810 does not works over with wi-fi only browser or youtube, I don't use Services Plans, but the bb is supposed to work even only with wifi, apps only work shortly after a restart and longer if I do a Battery pull.

If I recall correctly, open your Browser > Options > and set the browser to a hotspot browser for it work over WIFi only.

HT201359 I purchased a audio book to listen to on my commute to work. It only works over wifi, that does me no good in the car and the book is hours long for audio. That will eat up my data. How can I get a refund?

How are you trying to listen to it ? You shouldn't need to be online to listen to it, I don't for any of mine. If you've downloaded it directly on your iPad (or synced it from your computer) then it should be in the Music app (you will get an Audiobooks option under the More button in the Music app when you have audiobooks on it) - is that where you are trying to listen to it ?

IMessage is not working over wifi. I need HELP D:

I recently moved my library on my time capsule
You mean you moved your music files to the external. The library is more than the music files.
Just copy the \Music\iTunes\ folder from internal to the Time Capsule.
Add the Time Capsule to your Login items in System prefs -> Accounts.
Hold Option and launch iTunes and select *Choose library*.
Select the iTunes library file int ehiTunes folder on the Time Capsule.
It is hte samae library you have previously. All artwork playlists, ratings, songs, movies, etc. will be there.
Genius is already there so nothing needs to be done.

Apple Apps like Weather, the App Store and even the Facebook App don't work on WIFI

Since a few days all my apple apps (Itunes, AppStore, Weather) don't work via Wifi. The strange thing is that all other apps work without problems (just Facebook and Youtube don't view profile pictures). Via 3G all apps work without any problems. I just set my router to default settings but the problem keeps existing. Would be great if someone could help me!

I read about the following:
Workarounds:
Make sure that Bluetooth is turned off.
Turn the Stamina Mode off. It should be off by default, but you can check inSettings > Power management > STAMINA mode.
Possible solutions:
Restart the router and the phone.
Double check that you have the right details and password.
Ensure that you have the latest firmware. For your Xperia Z this should come as an OTA update, but for your router you’ll need to check the manufacturer’s website or with your ISP.
Try changing the channel on your router and make sure that DHCP is on.
Turn MAC filter off on your router and/or add your phone’s MAC address.
Try Sony’s PC Companion. Install on your PC and go to Support Zone > Start > Phone Software Update > Start. If you already have the latest version chooseRepair phone and follow the instructions.

Will siri for the ipad 3 work over wifi? Or just 3G/4G?

So I want to get the iPad 3 but before I do I wanted to know if it works over wifi. Or 3G/4G only.

Make sure Siri is turned on in the General settings and not blocked in the Restrictions. Then see:
http://www.apple.com/ios/siri/siri-faq/
By the way, it's usually best to ask a new question as a new topic rather than as an add-on to someone else's thread.

Facetime, imessage and find my ipad doesn`t work over wifi but they work over 4g, please help me

According to Apple Facetime will only work over WiFi. IOS 6 will bring feature that you can make Facetime call over 3g-4g

Verizon messages app doesn't work over wifi....

Hello, all,
Until recently, I used the verizon messages app to send/receive texts over wifi on my gs3 when I had no cellular/data reception. Now it will only send/rec when there's cell reception.
But...the app does still work over wifi onmy galaxy tab 2 7.0.
Why could this be? Did a recent app update break txt over wifi for the gs3?
Thanks!
Abe

This does NOT work on the Galaxy S3.
Airplane mode ON, Wifi ON, No network mode is available in Airplane mode. So...only wifi is available. When I try to send a text with only wifi available I get "Network not available. The message will be sent when the network is available"
BUT...On my Galaxy Tab 2 (non-verizon), This DOES work. On the tab 2 with only wifi available, I CAN send text messages using Verizon Messages.
So....again...
On Galaxy Tab 2 with only WiFi available...texting with Verizon messages DOES work.
On Galaxy S3 with only WiFi available...texting with Verizon messages DOES NOT work.
Please fix Verizon Messages to work over WiFi using Galaxy S3.
Thanks,
Abe

mfe - 2.09.208

I already have the default destination to internet.But it still doesnt give me the pop-up which asks me to choose the internet connection.
But under Settings>>Connectivity>>Destinations>>Internet, I have 2 access points.
Pri#1 - Vodafone Mobile connect
Pri#2 - my wi-fi access point.
Does this make any diff? Should I try flipping the priorities?
cheers!

Since installing Maverick on my 21in. 3.2ghz iMac, cannot upload to any application without it locking up, Aperature opens automatically, my printers don't work and Apple has failed to reschedule a appointment with a Tech on Case *******in 3wks

<Edited by Host>

Sorry you've decided this is a rant but the objective observer would know that all I want is a solution to at least the 3 issues mentioned. I spent the better part of 2 nights with techs that had me doing all the standard refresh items, i.e. setting the PRAM... and as time goes on my frustration grows. Last week spent days trying to find the driver software Maverick now needs and Apple is supposed to have it and doesn't. So at what point does this become a rant? I've done things the right way had mucho patience thus far and as a kicker, Apple won't let me download Mountain Lion to reinstall and rid my self of Maverick. Tell me, would you complain?

Why does Time Machine not work over wifi but only via ethernet cable ?

Hi everyone,
It's been some time I have this problem now.
The first time I backed up my mac within Time Capsule with time machine, I chose to use the ethernet cable because the gigabit connection is much faster than the wifi for the first back up, but now, any time I want to update this back up, I need to connect the cable, cause "Time Machine can not connect to the Drive I picked" over wifi.
This is so annoying. Does anyone have a similar issue ?
Any solution ?
When I got this "error" I can use Utility Airport and get full access to the drive, even in finder. The only thing that doesn't work is TimeMachine connecting to the drive, even if it is detected by TimeMachine itself.
Thanks.
Riccardo

Typical Yosemite.
I suggest a full reconfigure of the TC.
Follow this list..
No files are deleted on the TC doing this although you might have to repoint your laptop to the backup.
Note.. even if TM does connect it will say it is going to do a new backup.. it is only when it starts that it discovers the backup exists and increments it.
Start from a factory reset. No files are lost on the hard disk doing this.
Factory reset universal
Power off the TC.. ie pull the power cord or power off at the wall.. wait 10sec.. hold in the reset button.. be gentle.. power on again still holding in reset.. and keep holding it in for another 10sec. You may need some help as it is hard to both hold in reset and apply power. It will show success by rapidly blinking the front led. Release the reset.. and wait a couple of min for the TC to reset and come back with factory settings. If the front LED doesn’t blink rapidly you missed it and simply try again. The reset is fairly fragile in these.. press it so you feel it just click and no more.. I have seen people bend the lever or even break it. I use a toothpick as tool.
N.B. None of your files on the hard disk of the TC are deleted.. this simply clears out the router settings of the TC.
Setup the TC again.
Then redo the setup from the computer with Yosemite.
1. Use very short names.. NOT APPLE RECOMMENDED names. No spaces and pure alphanumerics.
eg TCgen5 for basestation and and TCwifi wireless name.
If the issue is wireless use TC24ghz and TC5ghz with fixed channels as this also seems to help stop the nonsense. But this can be tried in the second round. ie plan on a first and second round of changes to fix this.. hopefully.. I will point out other steps that can be round2.
2. Use all passwords that also comply with 1. but can be a bit longer. ie 8-20 characters mixed case and numbers.. no non-alphanumerics.
3. If the TC is main router you can skip this point. This is only an issue when the TC is bridged.
Ensure the TC always takes the same IP address.. you will need to do this on the main router using dhcp reservation.. or a bit more complex setup using static IP in the TC. But this is important.. having IP drift all over the place when Yosemite cannot remember its own name for 5 min after a reboot makes for poor networking.
4. Check your share name on the computer is not changing.. make sure it also complies with the above.. short no spaces and pure alphanumeric.. but this change will mess up your TM backup.. so be prepared to do a new full backup. Sorry.. keep this one for second round if you want to avoid a new backup.
5. Mount the TC disk in the computer manually.
In Finder, Go, Connect to server from the top menu,
Type in SMB://192.168.0.254 (or whatever the TC ip is which you have now made static. As a router by default it is 10.0.1.1 and I encourage people to stick with that unless you know what you are doing).
You can use name.. SMB://TCgen5.local where you replace TCgen5 with your TC name.. local is the default domain of the TC and doesn't change.
However names are not so easy as IP address.. nor as reliable. At least not in Yosemite they aren't. The domain can also be an issue if you are not plugged or wireless directly to the TC.
6. Make sure IPv6 is set to link-local only in the computer. For example wireless open the network preferences, wireless and advanced / TCP/IP.. and fix the IPv6. to link-local only. Do the same for ethernet if you use it.
There is a lot more jiggery pokery you can try but the above is a good start.. if you find it still unreliable.. don't be surprised.
You might need to do some more work on the computer itself. eg Reset the PRAM.. has helped some people. Clean install of the OS is also helpful if you upgrade installed.
Tell us how you go.
Someone posted a solution.. See this thread.
Macbook can't find Time Capsule anymore
Start from the bottom and work up.. I have a list of good network practice changes but I have avoided Yosemites bug heaven.
Yosemite has serious DNS bug in the networking application.. here is the lets say more arcane method of fixing it by doing a network transplant from mavericks.

E-mail client not working over wifi?

The built-in e-mail application always requires packet data connection and simply ignores the fact that phone is connected to the Internet via wifi! It asks to connect via existing packet data destination and if I don't allow it it simply does nothing, no attempt to use the running connection. Can this be fixed? Nokia 5800XM, Nokia e-mail ver. 10.02(26)

Hello,
Thanks for the reply. I actually expected an e-mail about reply, but not got it, so I did not notice it.
It is set precisely like you say, and still no progress via wifi. It pretends to do something but never download new messages, nor puts any error. Over 3G no problem. I wonder if somebody got it working via wifi. Mailbox is type IMAP4, SSL - but this is common nowadays, even gmail uses it.
Furthermore the phone always establishes a new 3G connection without asking when a new mailbox is created, despite the fact that a wifi connection has a higher priority and the 3G connection is set to 'Ask always' ! It seems that packet data connection is somehow hardwired there. Notably the Java Gmail app from Google does the same.
Best regards
Karel

Wake for network access works over Wifi but ...

I want to wake my iMac over Wifi. I have followed all steps described in http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3774 and it works great: I can wake up my sleeping iMac from my macbook and using the Remote.app on my iPhone. Nice!
However, it only works if my Mac is not locked. If I'm away from my iMac, I usually set in on the login screen (with my account still being logged in). But then my iMac won't wake up. Why?
I could understand this not working when not being logged. I'm logged in however. Is this a limitation of the Wake for Network Access feature? I have not found any info on this yet...
thanks

I have the same problem and I don't set it on the login screen.
It seems that wake on lan works the first minutes my iMac has gone to sleep. But thereafter it seems to be in 'deep sleep' and I'm not able to wake it.
I also followed all the steps in the Apple web page and I'm also using the Remote app on my iPhone.
Anyone any ideas?
