Change your router channel. Sometimes this is all you will have to do.
Power cycling the router. Read the router's user manual or contact their tech support for instructions.
System Preferences/Internet & Network/Network
Unlock the padlock
Locations: Automatic
Highlight Airport
Click the Assist Me button
In the popup window click the Diagnostic button.
System Preferences/Network- Unlock padlock. Highlight Airport. Network Name-select your name. Click on the Advanced button. Airport/Preferred Networks-delete all that is not your network.
Place a check mark next to "Remember networks this computer has joined." Click the OK button and lock the padlock. Restart your computer.

MacBook pro can't find any wifi networks. HELP PLEASE
Ok so my late 2011 MacBook pro15" starTed dropping out of my network every now and then. Rebooting it got it hooked back up again. Now just a few weeks ago its not picking up any real wifi networks (according to my phone and what my computer showed me before there's a bunch in range). It shows this network called setup as the only wifi network in range and when I click on it, there is this little grey picture of a computer where the wifi bars should be.
Xbox, phone and all of the roommates devices are hooked up just fine.
I've taken it out to a couple of coffee shops and its the same thing. Either seeing no networks or that setup thing.
I've tried restarting, verify and repair disk, deleting all of my preferred networks. I don't know what else to do.Also I've tried to use one of those usb WiFi adapters that essentially bypasses the computers airport card. That shows all the networks in range but will fail to connect to any of them.

My MacBook Pro can't find the display brand and resolution
Hello everybody,
I have a MacBook Pro "Core i7" 2.7 13" Early 2011.
I use and external display Philips 220C1SW
Recently my mac won't recognize the Philips brand anymore and use instead a generic display resolution, which is wrong.
Does anybody had the same issue?
Looking forward your answers
MatHello le-mat
Check out the article below for resolving issues when connecting to an external display. I would start with resetting the NVRAM and SMC as they will resolve most display resolution and power issues.

Hi can anyone help me, my daughters macbook will not pick up the wireless signal in her bedroom when me and my wifes iphone picks it up easy. any ideas to help please.Andy
P.S i;ve heard a comment about the G5 case not being
great for wireless so the cards come with a plastic
antena that connects to the back of the machine - i
never recieved one of these - could that be the
problem?
Newer G5 PowerMacs don't require the external t-shaped aerial, earlier models do and that is probably the cause of the problem.

I have an ipad first generation. I am trying to connect to a linksys router and the ipad is not finding the wireless network. What do I need to do? Thanks for your help.
Some things to try first:
1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
• Launch Settings app
• Tap on Wi-Fi
• Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
• In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

hello everyone i need your help please
i can't find the facetime on my iphone i was using it before 1 month after that it's just disappear i need your help to get it back .
thank youFACETIME MISSING
The governments in some middle eastern countries have banned Facetime and it is disabled on iphones purchased in those countries. The countries include KAS, UAE and others. There is no way to get Facetime on such phones (for example it cannot be downloaded and installed) and taking the phone to another country does not cause Facetime to reappear on such phones. In support.apple.com/kb/ts3367 it says “Note: FaceTime may not be available, or may become unavailable, on devices purchased or used in certain countries, including Saudi Arabia and the United Arab Emirates. Check your device's region of purchase for more information.” -
Can't find the wireless signal from my newly installed HP 3050 printer via I phon or I pad. Printer test page found no problems and states successful setup. Any ideal on the cause of the problem? Thanks.
Hello Sashalechat,
Welcome to the HP Forums.
I see that you are having an issue when attempting to connect to a wireless network.
Have you changed the router for a new one?
Make sure that you have the printer power cable connected directly to a wall outlet and not a power bar/strip. Here is a document that uses a LaserJet printer as an example but it is meant for HP products in general. Please click on the following link that explains the Issues when Connected to an Uninterruptible Power Supply/Power Strip/Surge Protector.
Make sure that you are with in the 4'-20' range.
You can try the HP Print and Scan Doctor as well. Let me know if you see any error codes or messages.
Write me back when you have time.
Cheers,

My CS6 program that has never had a problem before, is not telling me that there is an error and that it "unexpectedly quit" when I simply try to launch the program. I have restarted my computer several times. It does the same thing each time. So then I tried uninstalling the program and re-installing. It said that it could not install due to an error. So I STILL can't launch my program. I don't know what to do. Any help would be appreciated. I have to edit photos for a photoshoot and return them tomorrow. :/

repeating error message reads: "valid apple id but not icloud account." when trying to start my icloud account. I tried downloading on a different computer and logging in and it did not work. I have restarted my computer several times. I have changed my password several times. I have tried to access the icloud page. Nothing has worked. Now I have this stupid app and some of my music is still not being shared on both of my computers.
I have the same problem signing in...but, I finally got a screen saying you have to set up a account on a device..like an ipad to get a iCloud sign in ...my apple id is [email protected] and this screen reset to [email protected]
If you don't have an apple device you may be out of luck. I don't know. I'm still waiting for help just as you are...good luck to both of us though. -

I lost my iphone and my macbook pro does not show the icloud in system pref. how do i get icloud on my mac?
iCloud is only available in Lion, 10.7. You will have to upgrade to Lion in order to get into iCloud. If you transfered a .mac or .me address to iCloud through mobile me, or you have another device iCloud enabled, then you can log into the iCloud.com website.

Since upgrading iMac to osx lion I have been experiencing problems in mail, it spontaneously stops receiving and tells me it can't find the pop server and also the biggest problem is that when I send with an attachment the recipient doesn't receive it.
I have to restart mail most times before it starts recieving or recognizes the pop server.
As I said a lot of recipients do not recieve my mails when there is an attachment or when I reply to their email.Contact iTunes Customer Service and request assistance
