I cannot access the internet. When I type in a search nothing happens.

My yahoo homepage opens ok. I can access mail. However, when I type in a search for a web site nothing happens. It says its connecting for 3-5 minutes then just stops and I am not connected. This just started about an hour or so ago.

What are you using (provider) for the search? From where and how?
Have you tried another search engine?
Some added toolbar and anti-virus add-ons are known to cause
Firefox issues. '''Disable All of them.'''

  • Having trouble accessing the internet  when my iphone is plugged into my pc

    Cannot access the internet when my phone is plugged into my pc

    If your computer is running Windows, go to Control Panel > Administrative Tools > Services.  Check to see if "Apple Mobile Device" Service is Started.  If not right click on this service and select Start.  Also make sure Startup type is set to Automatic.  If not, right click on this service, select Properties and set it to Automatic.

  • I cannot access the internet, I tried to answer that said to go to settings, safari, tap clear history, cookies and cache, cut off, then on, but it did not work.  When I go to internet the screen is grey??? please help I am a new user!!

    I cannot access the internet the screen is grey, I have tried by using the answer from someone but it does not work...I went to settings, tap safari, then clear the history, cookies, and cache, then turn off ipad.  When I did that twice, it did not work.  How long does it take for the clear history to work?  I am a brand new
    user of the ipad2 and I am disappointed that this is happening already.

    Have you been able to access the internet previously and now it's suddenly not working, or are you still trying to access the internet for the first time on your iPad?  Are you at home trying to connect through your home router?  If you are at home, did you put your home routers encryption code as your password?  The encryption code is what your iPad is looking for and it is usually found on the router and is typically a 13 digit combination of letters and numbers.  Let us know......

  • When I open a second Profile while another is running the second cannot access the Internet until I close the first. Why?

    I often have occasions to run more than one Profile simultaneously (usually because of different add-ons I've installed on different Profiles). In the past this worked fine. Now, all of a sudden, if I open a second Profile while the first is running the second cannot access the Internet until I close the first. It keeps looking for a website, and failing, until the system "times out". If I close the first Profile, the second is then able to access the Internet.
    Note: this is not a problem with opening a second Window in Firefox. As long as they are from the same Profile they will both work fine. Nor does this stop me from using a second Profile to look at website files I have saved to my computer. The only problem is that the second Profile cannot get on the Internet.

    I just checked, the setting was for "Automatic proxy configuration URL", in the past it was set on "No Proxy". So I'll try changing that (and/or try other proxy options), and see if that solves the problem.
    If it does, then just one (academic) question remains: why did that happen in the first place? I don't care what the answer is, so long as your suggestion solves the problem.
    Thanks.

    You need to do a clean reinstall.
    Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
    * Firefox 5.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
    * Uninstall your current Firefox version.
    * Do not remove personal data when you uninstall the current version.
    Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
    * It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
    Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored elsewhere in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Firefox Profile Folder] and won't be affected by a reinstall, but make sure that you do not select to remove personal data if you uninstall Firefox.

  • IPAD 2 WiFi only. Can I access the Internet when I plug into my computer that is connected to a LAN?

    I just purchased an IPAD2 and I love it. It's WIFI only, and I want to access the Internet when I plug in to my computer since I don't have 3G capability. But when I try and connect it won't allow. Is this standard? Am I preventing from high speed internet access on my IPAD 2 even when my computer is connected to the Internet? Any help would be much appreciated

    You cannot access the internet through the connection to a computer hooked up to the internet.
    It may be possible to configure your PC as a WiFi access point. Check your PC documentation for its capabilities.
    Or, purchase a WiFi router and hook it up to your ISP modem. You can hardwire your PC to the modem.
    Good WiFi routers can be purchased for $30-$40 dollars if you shop around.

  • WRT54G router cannot access the Internet

    My wireless PC can access the router but cannot access the Internet.
    When I ping linksys.com - the ping times out; however, when I ping my ISP I get 4 pings back. When I ping the router the ping is successful as I get 4 pings back.
    I am sure there is a fix for this problem. Can anyone help me get connected to the internet?
    Thanks
    I just got DSL in my area and installed it. I have a Linksys WRT54G router and a zyxek 660R DSL modem. I have a PC #2 in the room down the hall and a PC #1 in another room. I have a Wireless-G USB adapter in PC #2 (this is the antenna for the wireless connection). Everything is installed and PC #1 can connect to the internet through the modem and router. However PC #2 can only reach the access point (router) and will not access the internet. I can connect to the internet for PC #2 when an ethernet wire is used directly but it is not great to have a wire running down the hall. I pinged the router from PC #2 and the echos look fine. So it can certainly reach the router. When I use the Local Network tab and click on DHCP Clients table both PCs are displayed. So how can a PC use a wireless connection to reach the internet? I have spent 4 days already trying to get this to work. My ISP can't seem to help.
    Thanks for your help.

    hi... logon to router's setup page and try changing channel to 1 or 11, click on the advanced wireless settings and try reducing beacon interval to 50, fragmentation and RTS threshold to 2304, also try upgrading latest firmware on the router...also
    if you are using Win XP system try uninstalling the adapter from the computer...click on start >> programs >> wireless G USB adapter >> uninstall, put the CD in for the adapter and restart the computer, one window pops up "found new hardware" try installing the drivers, no need to install WLAN software or utility and use windows WZC (wireless zero configuration) to manage wireless connection...check whether it works for you or not and let me know the results.

  • I cannot access the internet via wifi on my time capsule.

    I cannot access the internet via wifi on my time capsule even thought it was shown that I am connected to the time capsule with full wifi on my iMac. I use to be able access the internet via wifi on the TC. However, after playing around with the airport utility on my iPad I was no longer able to access the internet via the wifi on myTC. How can I fix this problem?

    Did your TC recently upgrade firmware to 7.6.3?
    I recommend you do a full factory reset.. and redo the setup.
    Use different names.. SMB type.. ie short, no spaces. pure alphanumeric for everything.
    Use only WPA2 Personal security.
    If that doesn't work, give more info.
    Age of the TC.. model number.. A1xxx from the base.
    Firmware revision.
    In the computer are you getting the correct IP and router and dns values? Please post a screen shot.

  • My mac pro laptop cannot access the internet which is cable thru airport extreme any suggestions

    My Mac pro cannot access the internet cable but is connected to wi fi thru airport extreme. my apple desktop works fine on the system and sits next to my laptop. any suggestions

    "I have an ethernet cable in port 1 on my computer. That is configured manually to access ther office network."
    Do you have a "real" IP address or a private (192.168.x.x, 10.x.x.x, 172.x.x.x) IP address?
    "The wireless router was connected to the company server only for the purpose of getting me online through Airport because I couldn't access it using an ethernet connection"
    Could not access it because their network security blocked you by intent, or had some unknown technical difficulty?
    Unless you are blocked by intent or ommission (if they have to explicitly allow your machine) I can think of no technical reason why your wired connection should not both get you on their network and on the internet in general. You should not need to be dual homed (though dual homing should work as well).
    Please answer the questions above when you can - I think solving the wired LAN issue will be easier if you are not being intentionally blocked.

  • I cannot retrieve the password for the wifi connection on my imac and so cannot access the internet with my ipad at home.  I have a cable modem. Help please!

    I cannot retrieve the password for the wifi connection on my imac and so cannot access the internet with my ipad at home.  I have a cable modem. Help please!

    If you mean that you cannot remember the password for your WiFi network this will work for you - or it should work if you are the administrator on the Mac.
    You will need to be logged in as the administrator on your Mac and you must know the password - Open Keychain Access on your Mac in the utilities folder, click on Passwords. Find the Airport Network Password listed on the right. Double click on it. Click on show password in the the window that pops up. Enter your administrator password when prompted and click allow.
    If Keychain is locked - you must enter the administrator password there as well to unlock it and access the password.
    If you have set the Mac up for Internet Sharing for the iPad to share the Mac's connection, just create a new network On the Mac with Internet sharing and a new password.

  • I did a software update on my ipad and now cannot access the internet. how can i fix this?

    I did a software update on my ipad to 8.1 and now cannot access the internet.  How do I fix this?  My mail updates, but to get internet access I had to move from wifi to cellular data, and now even cellular data does not allow me access.

    Hi Go to settings Reset Network Settings After Reset you need to enter your Router wireless key Before you do this turn off your Router for 30 seconds Also an option is to go on Websites for your make of Router look for any Firmware updates but you can do this later. Cheers Brian

  • I installed Mountain Lion on my iMac. Now I cannot access the Internet. All the other computers and tablets have no problem. I did PRAM and MC reset, modem reset, etc., all the usual ju-ju. I also cannot connect on my local network to any other computer.

    I installed Mountain Lion on my iMac. Now I cannot access the Internet. All the other computers and tablets on the network have no problem. I did PRAM and MC reset, modem reset, etc., all the usual ju-ju. I also cannot connect on my local network to any other computer. Yet Network control panel says I am connect to the modem, and Network Diagnosis says I am connected to the Internet. It's like the blind man who has eyes that cannot see. BTW, I am not some newbee. I have been a Machead since the early nineties and set up a half dozen networks, including the one I am using at home to which the iMac mysteriously is there but not. This has me stumped! I am considering going back to 10.7!

  • Cannot Access the internet on my Mac

    I have a MacPro, running 10.5.1 (although when this problem began it was probably a newer version the OS if there was one). I moved offices about 2 months ago-- same facility, same network. After one day in the new digs, my internet and network access (wired) stopped working. That has lead down a long path including hours on the phone with Applecare, one visit from a certified mac repairman, several archive and installs, hundreds of dollars of tech time by the company network engineers, and a month and a half of lost productivity.
    *Internet Access:*
    A wireless router has been installed, and my airport connection is set to the 192. schema. The Airport status window shows that I'm connected to the right network and full strength, however I still can't access the internet when I'm booted Mac OS. I've tried both Safari and Firefox. I can access the internet only when booted in Windows XP.
    *Office Network Access:*
    At this point, via manual configuration in Network Preferences, I have sketchy access to the office shares in both Operating Systems through a wired connection. When I'm in Leopard though, I have no access to the internet and no access to the printers on the network. In Windows XP, I have access to everything, even though XP is using the same hardware to do it. There seems to be something in my Mac OS blocking IPs. This conclusion was reached due to the fact that the office share I can access are recognized by name, but internet and printers are recognized by IP, hence, I can't use them.
    Network Diagnostics says my "internet connection appears to be working correctly" with all green lights on the left side, but whenever I try to browse the internet, it says the same thing but the "ISP," "Internet," and "Server" items under Network Status all say Failed with the red lights.
    The Office Network Engineer, anyone I talk to at Applecare, and I are all baffled. I'm the only Mac in the company, and I'm a luxury as a designer here. No one else is having these problems, and I'm now a month and a half behind. Things aren't looking good.
    Can anyone out there help me...please?
    *Other important details:*
    -Office Server is Windows Server 2003 R2
    -Every test that the Network Engineer has run on the server (Windows Server) has come up clean.
    -I can't ping any IP's from my Mac Pro
    -Traceroute yeilded the same results as everything above
    -I can only access shares by the names assigned to them
    -The network DNS could not Ping my Mac

  • Is there a way to access the web-based setup for my router if I cannot access the internet?

    Okay, I need to change the ip address settings on my router. I have a WRT54G Wireless router. I cannot access the internet on my computer connected to the router, and do not know how to change the router settings without accessing the web-based setup page. So, back to my question. Is there a way to access this page if I cannot connect to the internet?

    On the back of the router is a small reset switch. Using a paper clip or other small item, press the switch in and hold it for a few seconds. This will reset the router to the default IP address of 192.168.1.1. Enter that address in your web browser, and be sure your computer is attached to the router by an Ethernet cable. Don't attempt to do this using the wireless connection.
    Once you have reached the web configuration utility you can change the DHCP settings.
    To give your PC a static IP address you will need to open your network connections panel and, assuming your using Windows XP, make the changes from dynamic IP to static there.
