I can use the ethernet connection but not the wireless on my Airport Extreme to connect to the internet.

How do I get the wireless to work again? I've turned both the modem and Airport Extreme off and on again. Do I need to do a hard reset on the Extreme?

Thanks for the reply.  I've only powered down all my devices and repowered them.  When I made the switch from cable to Uverse, at some point my old USB printer connected to the Extreme spit out about 8 documents that were in its queue, and nothing since.  I can see it on the network from my Mac, but my wife's PC can't find it (and that's the real problem, if you know what I mean).  I have a new MacBook Pro, and she's running XP SP2 on her PC.  Everything worked fine when I was on cable modem service, but since I've changed to ATT Uverse, I'v had this little issue.  As you can tell, I'm a novice when it comes to networking.
Thanks again,
Bill J.

  • HT1998 My iPAD can use the internet through my airport extreme, but the airport utility does not see it so I can't create a guest password.  What am I doing wrong?

    My iPAD can use the internet through my Airport Extreme, but the Airport Utility does not see the device so I can't set a guest password. 

    If your Mac is using the Lion operating system with recent updates, it will be necessary to download and install AirPort Utility 5.6 for Mac OS X Lion
    Open Macintosh HD > Applications > Utilities > AirPort Utility 5.6
    Select the AirPort Extreme and click Manual Setup
    Click the Wireless tab just below the row of icons
    Click the Wireless Network Options button
    Remove the check mark next to Create a closed network
    Click Done, then click Update to save the new settings and allow 25-30 seconds for the AirPort Extreme to restart

  • I can use the internet but can't connect to itunes store or software update

    I recently moved, and now have cable internet (I used to use Airport). Ever since the new connection, I can use the internet through browsers, but when I go to the iTunes store, it can't connect. same with Software update.

    Hi linnedw;
    May I welcome you to the Apple Discussion Forums.
    It sounds like your new connection to the web has some ports blocked. Could you please provide us with more details as to exactly how you are now connecting to the web?

    How can I conntect to a mobile network from my phone to my IPod so I can use the internet?

    Itr depends upon the device and your carrier. Contact BB and your carrier support.website. Typically you have to subscribe (pay) to setup the hotspot but that depends upon the carrier.
    You can also Google for;
    setup wifi hotspot for XX blackberry with YY
    XX is your model BB and YY is your carrier.

  • Purchased Photoshop/Lightroom deal...can use Photoshop no prob but not Lightroom

    purchased photoshop/lightroom deal...can use photoshop no prob but lightroom says I have 0days remaining on my trial and I cannot open it. It is asking for serial# but I don't think I got one...I searched my emails and I didn't find anything. I've tried downloading again but still nothing...Please help I have a deadline to meet and i need to use it right away.

    Uninstall your current LR5 that is activated with a serial number.
    Quit the CC Desktop application.
    Restart the CC Desktop application—this causes CC to rescan your location computer to see what is installed.
    At this point you’ll see an Install button next to Lightroom, so install that.

  • HT4325 I can use airplay on iMac but not iPad or iPhones

    My iMac streams music to my Apple TV units and I have the airplay icon appear. I can happily stream music to different speakers from my iMac.
    I am using Pandora to play music on my iMac and would like to stream it to different speakers. I thought I could do this using either my iPhones (4S & 5) and iPad2 but no such luck. It would appear that I cannot stream to the AppleTVs as they are first generation but they happily work with the iMac?!?
    Am I missing something or is there a way I can achieve streaming from these devices using Airplay?
    Background: The wifi is fine, all devices are using the same system and are connected using a router. It works well for the iMac using itunes but alas Pandora is not available on itunes.
    Any suggestions?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    No you aren't doing anything wrong, the first generation Apple TV can't receive streams from an iOS device.

  • I downloaded Firefox 6, but I cannot open it up because my computer is OSX, how to I reinstall the previous version of Firfox so I can use the internet? Help, hep?

    I downloaded Firefox 6 to my OSX desktop, but I am not able to use it open up this latest version of Firefox. Is it possible to upload the previous version of Firefox, if so, how do I do that so that I can get onto the internet? I would appreciate the help
    I have been able to update other versions of Firefox, but not Firefox 6

    The current version of Jing requires an Intel processor running OS X 10.5.8 or later. The message you're receiving is because the iBook uses the PowerPC platform and not Intel. The last release of Jing that will run on your system is version 2.3, which they no longer support and it doesn't auto update.

  • Why can I reach other web sites but not my own!  w/ Airport Extreme?

    I can get on line and reach other sites via Safari and IE with the connection via Airport Extreme. But I can't reach my own web site!!!
    And my Mac Mail is not useable because it says,
    "Connection Failed: There may be a problem with the mail server or network. Check the settings for account "[email protected]" or try again. The server error encountered was: The server "pop.patternglass.com" cannot be contacted on port 110."
    Honestly I've tried! Earthlink hosts my web site and they say its working - and it IS for everyone but me! Comcast is my ISP and they had me disconnect my Airport Extreme and connect my computer directly to the modem. Voila! It all works perfectly. Went back to Airport Extreme and same problem.
    There was no 'event' that signaled the change. One minute it was fine last night and the next minute it was gone. Help me, please!

    An answer to another question I had about Mac Mail fixed this problem (I can get to my web site) but I still can't get mail into my Mac Mail Box!
    I still get "Connection failed. There may be a problem with the mail server or network. Check the settings for account "[email protected]" or try again.
    The server error encountered was: The server "pop.patternglass.com" cannot be contacted on port 110."

  • I am overseas and cannot send emails although I can receive them and I can use the internet

    How do I change email settings to send emails whilst I am overseas? I can receive them but not send them. I can access the internet

    "Cannot send message using the server" pops up every time I try to send an email.  I can receive emails just fine.  Any suggestions on how to fix this?
    You have a setting incorrect in the outgoing mail settings. Either the port is wrong or the server is wrong.
    Please post what the server is and the port it is using. It should be something like POP.XXX.com/net or Mail.xxx.com/net.

  • When I click on the Mozilla Firefox icon, I cannot get to my homepage so I can use the Internet.

    I have Windows XP. When I usually click on the Mozilla Firefox icon on my desktop, my Homepage comes up with weather, news headlines, etc. Now all I get is a screen with a search box for Google! I cannot get to the Internet anymore! Help!

    When I go to Tools, Options, General, Homepage, there is nothing in the box for Homepage. So I clicked on default. Didn't work. Tried Msn.com, didn't work. There's a box that says Show Homepage also, but can't seem to make it all work. What should be in the box that's blank? How did it change on its own? HELP!

  • Can use the internet but only one computer at a time...

    I have a very old PC with no ethernet ports and i have one macbook pro. I just bought an airport base station and have connected it to my modem via an ethernet cable, and the modem is then connected to my PC via USB.
    This set up allows me to connect wirelessly with my macbook pro, but if i want to connect to the net via my PC it won't let me...unless i turn off the base station and then reboot the modem. but now i can't connect wirelessly.
    Apple guys say, because I'm not connected directly to the PC from the base station (due to no ethernet ports) I'll never get round this problem. Before I give up, is there any thoughts on how i can resolve this catch 22?
    Macbook Pro Mac OS X (10.4.6)

    When I encountered the same problem a while back, I discovered that I had mistakenly connected the ethernet cable from my modem into one of the <-----> (ethernet) port on the back of my Airport instead of the O (WAN) port.
    It belongs in the O port.
    I hope your problem is this simple to solve.

  • TS3999 When I record calendar events on iPhone or iPad i can use a 24hour basis but not on my Macbook How can I change macbook calendar entries to 24 hour 'clock'

    When I record calendar events on my iphone or ipad I use a 24 clock, which is the basis on which my business runs. I cannot do the same on my Macbook, which is very frustrating and counter-intuitive (i.e. using am/pm). I asked my Apple support here in South Africa. The rep' said he could not answer immediately but would get back to me. I'm still waiting. Surely this is not a 'big' or 'unusual' problem? 

    I get 24hr everywhere not just in the dialog box
    Here's a calendar entry
    But I am not sure why you don't, let me put out a call for assisitance,

  • Macbook already connected to wireless but still can not use the internet as other Laptop can use.

    I just changed my Condo. Now I cannot connect my macbook to the internet even I already connect the wireless.
    For other computer can use the internet when they connected to that wireless, except my macbook.
    Please help to reply me.

    I second this statement. However, before you go you should check "apple menu > system preferences > network"
    Is your Airport visible here? If so, click on it and look for the "show Airport in menubar"  checkbox.

  • ITunes update removes essential software from my computer, which means I can't use the Internet.

    Two days ago, I updated iTunes to the latest version, but it appears that during the installation, vital software was removed from my computer. The result was that I couldn't access the Internet after the installation. I then did a system restore to get my computer back to how it was before I installed the new iTunes, with the result that the essential Internet file is back, but I can no longer open iTunes. I am getting the message that I need to change to the English version! I never selected any other version during the installation and in any case there was no such option.  I simply pressed the "Download update" from within iTunes.
    I have tried re-installing iTunes, but I keep getting the same result and have to keep reverting so that I can use the Internet.  Has anyone come across this problem? How do I resolve it?

    Okay than this definitely was not Apple. Apple support techs never have access to your mouse. It sounds like this company installed some software on your Mac. It is hard to tell what their intentions are but just assume in these situations that all your data was compromised. Possibly all your online accounts have been compromised such as social networks, banks, etc.. The smartest thing to do would be to change all of your passwords and reinstall OS X on your Mac. It sounds extreme but that's what happens when a 3rd party company gains control of your computer.

  • HT201270 I can access the internet, but i have no signal. Checked with provider, all fine on their end... Help please!

    I hav a new sim, and the provider (vodafone) said there is no problems on their end. I can use the internet, but cant make calls or texts or recieve them either... please help

    Thanks for your help firstly.
    No I don't have any firewall that I know of that could affect the Desktop app.  I have reviewed the link you sent across and the results are as follows:
    1. Make sure you can connect to the internet.
    Yes, internet is all good... no problems here.
    2. Make sure that you can access secure sites:
    Yes, I can access secure sites as tested by the example in the list (https://www.adobe.com).
    3. Check your hosts file.
    Test successful after going to: https://lm.licenses.adobe.com
    Moving on to reset the hosts file...
    I've followed the instructions and I get to "Select the hosts file and open it".
    If I simply double click, then the default is to open in TextEdit.
    Once open, I go to find File > Save As, but it only says, "Save a Duplicate" and then once I save a duplicate, I don't know where to save it because the Save window only shows the basic folders and I don't know how to get back into the /etc folder from the Private files.
    More instructions please, if possible?
    Thanks again
