  • Ok, tried message boards everywhere to try and figure this out before having to post a question. Have a 21.5" iMac running Snow Leopard 10.6.8.  After updates no wireless capability for ipad or laptop, imac connects fine but nothing else.No widgets work.

    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.

  • Just got new ipad2 and can't connect to internet...recognizes wifi network but won't connect

    just got a new ipad2...recognizes wifi network at home, but can't connect to internet...help???

    I just had a similar problem.  Both the ipad 1 and ipad 2 in my household quit connecting to the network even though it seemed to recognize it.  if you think it is recognizing your network, just not connecting, check to see if bluetooth is turned on.  i had to turn bluetooth off and then manually enter the DNS number. 
    My solution also came after I re-started my network and reset all the settings on the ipad2.  The DNS number then showed along with IP submet Mask and router.  I used that dns number to enter into ipad1 after turning bluetooth off on it.
    Totally unscientific fix that may have been more coincidental than correct but you might try it.  BTW--no idea how bluetooth even got turned on to begin with.

  • Can't connect to internet on my old g4 flat screen, network + airport ok

    I installed an airport card on the g4 (dome) and connected to our wireless network, which gets a signal, (though the status is "not available"). I can't connect to internet (server not recognized), and every time I check the internet assistant app, the setting has been changed back to modem. The router is in the basement: my iMac is on the first floor and works fine, the g4 is on the second floor. Is that too far away? Do I need to update the g4? Two minis also work fine, one on first floor and one in basement. Any help appreciated.

    Which iMac G4 do you have? Some iMac G4s are 802.11b while the later ones were 802.11b/g.
    If your wireless network is configured for "802.11g only", the older 802.11b iMac G4 won't be able to connect.
    If your wireless network is configured for "802.11n only", the iMac G4 won't be able to connect since it isn't compatible with that.

    Hey joshuafromisr,
    If you resintall iTunes, it should fix the issue. The following document will go over how to remove iTunes fully and then reinstall. Depending on what version of Windows you're running you'll either follow the directions here:

  • I can connect to network, but can't connect to internet with aebs

    so i got a new Airport Extreme Base Station, hoping to replace my old og airport. i can connect to the new AEBS network easily, but i can't connect to the internet. with the old airport, i can connect to the internet no problem, hence i can write this post. "internet connect" tells me:
    +old, space ship looking airport:+
    connected to "myNetwork"
    connected to the internet via ethernet
    +new and improved AEBS:+
    Connected to "myNetwork"
    but that's it. any ideas would be greatly appreciated. oh also, it seems to be running pretty hot. is that normal? thanks!

    Hello mookyee. Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
    It's always a good idea to power recycle all of your network components when changing configurations ...
    Try the following, in order, checking for Internet access after each step, until resolved:
    1. If the modem has a reset switch, use it to reset the modem. Wait at least 5-10 minutes for the modem to initialize.
    2. Remove power from the modem. If it has a backup battery, remove this as well. Wait 5-10 minutes. Replace the battery, and add power back to the modem.
    3. Perform a complete power recycle of your network components as follows:
    Modem/Router Power Recycling - Quick
    o Power-off the modem, 802.11n AirPort Extreme Base Station (AEBSn), & computer(s); Wait at least 5 minutes.
    o Power-on the modem; Wait at least 5 minutes.
    o Power-on the AEBSn; Wait at least 5 minutes.
    o Power-on the computer(s)
    If this fails to get the modem to "recognize" the Internet router, then try the "Full" version.
    Modem/Router Power ReCycling - Full
    o Power-off the modem, AEBSn, & computer(s). (Wait at least 30 minutes. If possible, leave the modem off overnight.)
    o Power-on the modem; Wait at least 15 minutes.
    o Power-on the AEBSn; Wait at least 5 minutes.
    o Power-on the computer(s)
    4. Contact your ISP to have them perform a "modem reset."

  • I can't connect to Internet with WIFI

    Hi !
    First, sorry for my so bad english but I'm French ;-)
    I'm so desperate !
    I have a Blackberry Curve 8520. I bought it on july. It worked very well, but since 3 months ago, i can't connect the BB to internet (with Wi-Fi or WAP).
    I tryed many Wi-Fi, i tryed all the options and now i'm so desperate... Nothing works for me.
    Can someone help me please?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    You can try this im also using Curve 9300 3G version 6 o.s
    1.Turn Off / Uncheck  your Mobile Network
    2. Enable Wi-fi if theres a WEP just put in it.
    3. Data Service should be ON - can be found on Mobile Network Options
    4. Browse - Browser, Social apps etc
    Hope helps
    I guess if it is in WI-FI mode we can't call / receive Calls or Text on your network, seems strange in BB.

  • Airport is on and working, but can't connect to internet with MacBook

    I have a green light on my airport Extreme, my laptop can join my network fine and get 4 bars of connectivity.
    But I cannot get on the internet with my laptop. Websites don't work.
    What am I doing wrong?

    Were you able to copy the DNS addresses to the MacBook? Were you able to delete the incorrect ones? Did you restart the MacBook before trying to access the Internet again?
    How about the IP address for the MacBook? It should be in the address range of 10.0.1.2 - 10.0.1.200. Is it? Of course I'm assuming that you did not change the default DHCP range of your AEBSn. Your iMac should also be assigned an IP in this range.

  • Can't connect to internet with an ethernet cable?

  • Can't connect to internet with static IP

    I'm trying to set up port forwarding which requires that every device on the network have a static IP address. Yesterday, while I was already connected, in System Preferences -> Network I switched the Configure setting from "DHCP" to "DHCP with manual address" and entered an IP address (192.168.0.10 if it matters). This allowed me to set up port forwarding for a number of things. However, after putting my computer to sleep I was unable to connect to the internet. I had to switch the Configure setting back to "DHCP". Any thoughts on how to get my internet to work with a static IP? My ISP is Rogers and my modem/router (single unit) is the SMC8014WG.

    Is your router IP address 192.168.0.1 ?? You must assign static IP addresses in the same subnet as your router is working. So generally speaking, the 1st 3 digits of your static IP address must match the router's IP address.
    2nd, you should assign static IP addresses outside of the range your router uses for DHCP assignments. Going though your router's configuration info should allow you to discover what range the router is using for DHCP. If the range covers everything from 2 through 254, then change its configuration so you have some room for assigning static IP addresses.
    NOTE: Some routers will allow you to continue to use DHCP and will make the Port Forwarding follow your system's MAC address (Media Access Control device; aka your ethernet address or WiFi address). If your router supports this, it would eliminate the need to use static IP addresses.
    3rd, it is possible that your Mac did not pick up DNS server addresses even in DHCP w/manual IP address. You could try configuring your own DNS server addresses via System Preferences -> Network -> Advanced -> DNS. You could just plug in your ISP's DNS servers, or you could even use the <http://OpenDNS.org> DNS servers.
    NOTE: If you are going to get into Port Forwarding so you can access your systems across the internet, you should look into getting a free <http://no-ip.com> or <http://dyndns.org> dynamic DNS name and running a dynamic DNS updater on one of your home systems. This will make it easier to find your systems when away from home.

  • Can't connect to internet with Ethernet

    I can no longer connect to the Internet through wi-fi or Ethernet.
    All tests I run say I am connected to the Internet. This issued just started out of the blue when trying to connect wirelessly in my office only with the iMac, my macbook has no issues.
    I contacted Comcast- they ran a bunch of tests and gave me a new modem- there was nothing wrong with the connection.
    I brought it into Apple, they insisted it was my Internet connection. this went back and forth between Comcast and Apple a few times.
    I contacted Comcast again, had an outlet installed so I wouldn't be wireless and could connect with an Ethernet cable thinking that maybe this was interference of some sort, it worked for a few weeks and then the other day it stopped. Again, I show that I am connected but nothing happens. I plugged in the macbook with the Ethernet and I am connecting fine.
    The kicker is, I can physically move my iMac out of the office into another room and can connect perfectly through wi-fi. I am stumped
    any suggestions?

    Yes, if you are running 10.6.8 in an iMac purchased in 2008, it is not a PowerPC
    I asked the Hosts to move it to the correct forum for you

  • Can't connect to internet with new wireless n "Extreme" modem

    I've had a D-Link DI-604 router for about 4 years-- and wanted to go wireless with an Apple Extreme but first have borrowed my neighbor's D-Link DIR-635 to just see if this will work in my brick house etc. (3 stories, lots of cement and brick...)
    Well I get as far as the 192.168.0.1 and then "clone" my MAC address (nothing to do with a Macintosh that...). Note: I was using the same computer to connect to the internet as I previously had used with the D-Link DI-604.
    I also give a manual (easy-to-remember) 5-letter password to my wireless connection--
    But although this "reboots" the modem, it does NOT let me connect to the internet...
    So I'm back to my D-Link 604 cable (wired) only...
    One thing the set-up asked for is my HOST name. The only thing I see in the Network System Preferences is an ethernet number: 00:16:cb:cd:6c:3e but I don't find a "HOST" name-- and is that really needed? (In Belgium I'm using an ISP provider "VOO")
    Any comments really appreciated-- I could actually see a fairly strong signal from the wireless router (I named it "SteveHermee" and I could see strong bands even from the top floor, with router in the basement...)-- but I could never connect to the internet via CABLE (wired) or wireless.
    Thanks,

    I got other info from others and D-Link directly.

  • Can't connect to internet, Motorola cable modem seems to freeze

    I have had this problem more and more fequently the past three or four weeks: I'm connected to the internet by ethernet through a motorola cable modem (SB5101). As long as the PC activity light on the modem is rapidly flashing amber things are fine. As soon as the activity light goes solid amber with no flashing I can no longer connect to the internet or send or receive mail. During one of these "freezes" when I check network status in the network pane of system preferences the light beside ethernet is yellow and the message says-"Built in ethernet is currently active. Built in ethernet has a self assigned IP address and may not be able to connect to the internet." When I check when my connection is working I get a green light and this message "Built in ethernet is currently active and has the IP address 70.44.etc. etc.(not sure if I should make the whole IP address public or not)You are connected to the internet through built in ethernet." I also notice when I check the Built in ethernet under network in sytem preferences that the IP address changes depending on whether the modem seems frozen or not. When disconnect the power to the modem and reconnect, I notice that within about two minutes the IP address changes and I can get back online again. Or at least I could. last time I did this the IP address did not change and I couldn't get back online. Now I'm using my iBook connected via ehternet, which is working fine for now (past 15 minutes). When I first plugged the iBook into the ethernet (I normally connect to the iBook through a snow airport, which I've disconnected to try to isolate this problem) I got this message(with an exclamation in a stop sign)-"IP configuration- 70.44.53.etc in use by 00:01:50:23:3e:c2 DHCP server24.229.54.226". I clicked through the box, and the iBook is still connected to the internet and working. I have contacted Motorola tech support, and it seems the modem is OK. I will contact my cable company next, but I don't have high hopes. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    sig-
    Thanks for your reply to my post. I was able to get back on the internet with the G4 using your suggestion, but the modem continues to freeze, whether connected to the iBook or the G4, using ethernet or airport. I will contact my ISP.

  • Qosmio F30: Can't connecting to internet with Wlan securely

    I have recently purchaced a Toshiba Qosmio F30 laptop, and have spent the best part of two days trying to connect to the internet wirelessly. After constantly calling Wanadoo (my provider) and blaming them for it all, I am told that the laptop itself is at fault.
    What happens is when i try to enter my network key (WEP) it defaults to a different key which i am unable to see as it is all in dots! This keeps happening and im am completely unable to enter my own network key. Until that is i disable the security on my livebox thingy, and connect to it unsecurely and as i live in close proximity flats, other people can and probably will connect to my internet, and i'm also told that this makes me more at risk from viruses and the like.
    I apologize for my lack of technical jargon, and that i cant give a more descriptive..er...description, but i am just a beginner and not the most computer literate.
    Any help would be most appreciated!.......Why is nothing ever simple!

    Hi Luke,
    Have you tried WAP (shared key) instead of WEP.
    In this way, you will have to make up your own key instead of having it generated by the router.
    It is also safer.
    In order to do that, you must enter your router's settings (usually http://192.168.1.1, or http://192.168.0.1), enter the administrator password provided by Wanadoo, then click on security. Change the setting from WEP to WAP (or shared key), and enter a 10digit password that you will then have to reenter when you computer will try to connect to the router again.
    It is best to use a wired connection to change the settings, then disconnect the wire, and connect wirelessly.
    If you notice that you are connected wirelessly to the router, and that your connection to the internet is dead, disable temporarily the LAN (reenable it when you are satisfied your connection is working). This would happen if your computer understand your wireless connection as a network connection to other computers and the wired connection as you connection to the internet (even if there is no wire connected).
    It is also important to change the administrator name and password to access your router (this would prevent your neighbours' kids playing at changing your settings).
    Let me know if you have more problems.

  • WRT54G2- Can't connect to internet with wired pc

    I have searched and can't find anything that is fixing my problem.  I have a desktop that is wired to the wireless router and a laptop that is wireless.  I never have problems with the laptop but, have problems with the desktop being unable to connect to the Internet after it is shut down.  I have reset the router, powered off the modem, restarted my desktop.  I am still unable to get the desktop to connect.  Could you tell me how to fix this and prevent it from happening?  The desktop is running Vista.
    Thanks!

    I did this and it saved it because when I do ipconf the ip address is there.  However, when I went in to put this in I had a version for and Version 6 for TCP/IP.  I tired both but, it would only take the IP address in Version 4.  It is still not working.  I restarted my computer and power cycled the router.  When I hook the modem to the computer it works fine but, as soon as I hook the router up the internet connection is lost.  I have plugged it into different ports thinking maybe one of the port us messed up.  But, that isn't the problem.
