I cant log in. it says to check my internet connection, but im online!

i have AOL. my firewall is off. what do i do? i have signed in using my aol account and my apple id account. i have never been able to sign onto it. (dialup connection)

Sorry about that. Apparently web accelerator looks like it has something to do with 9.0 optimized. Since I was never able to download 9.0 (I still have 8.0), I don't have accelerator. If you want to check to see if you have accelerator, click on AOL Keyword and type in TopSpeed. If you do not have the most current version, it will bring you to a box that say something like "to use this you must have the most current version of AOL. would you like to download it now?"
From the brief amount of info I read, it looks like accelerator helps you surf the net 5x faster than dial up. Sounds like the old NetZero ads.
Thanks for posting on my board. I'm so disgusted with iTunes, that I think I will join the BMG (formerly Columbia House) music club (you know, where you get 7 free, buy 1 at regular price, and get 4 more free), buy a whole slew of CD's and import them into my iTunes library. And, my co-worker offer to burn some CDs for me, so maybe I will take him up on his offer, and import those. I'll keep checking your board. Good Luck!

    when you say there is an Internet connection have you used safari?  Or does the phone just display a data connection (i.e. 3g/4g)?  You could try a couple of things if it is the latter 1. turn off cellular data than turn it back on.  2. turn on airplane mode and turn it back off.  I type these assuming you've tried resetting network connections.

  • My ipad says it has an internet connection but when i try to access safari it says it is unable to as there is no internet connection, help!

    Tap Settings / General / Reset / Reset Network Settings.
    Restart your IPad. Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button until the red slider appears. Slide your finger across the slider to turn off iPhone. To turn iPhone back on, press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.

  • Wifi is no, Able to search internet but not to update iOS software ( it says i haver no internet connection, but i do because i can surf the internet?? Can anybody help.

    I need help with This thing. I Have na iPad 3. It. says no service although it does show the wifi bar. Also I am Able to surf but on general it shows there is an update for the software and when i try to start it, it shows i'm not connected to internet. How can that be?  I Also tried to connect my iPhone to the same wifi and it says no internet connection. anybody?.

    Hello there, Learning.
    The following Knowledge Base article offers up some great, basic troubleshooting steps for issues with Wi-Fi on an iOS device:
    iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1398
    If the issue persists after performing the initial recommended steps, then try the following:
    Unable to access the Internet while connected to Wi-Fi
    If you're using a public or commercial network, you may need to log in or subscribe.
    Check to see if you have a self-assigned IP address:
    Tap Settings > Wi-Fi and locate the Wi-Fi network to which you're connected and tap .
    If your IP address is 169.254.xxx.xxx, you may not be able to access the Internet.
    If you do not have a self-assigned IP address, see if other Wi-Fi devices on your network have Internet access.
    If they do not, consult with your network administrator or ISP for further assistance.
    If they do, reset network settings on your device by tapping Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings. Note: This will reset all network settings including:
    previously connected Wi-Fi networks and passwords
    recently used Bluetooth accessories
    VPN and APN settings
    Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,
    Pedro.

  • My airport says i have an internet connection but no web page opens!!help!

      I recently unplugged my imac and brought it to a friends to use. I used his wireless to surf the internet no problem. Now A few days later, I brought my computer back home and plugged everything in, I double clicked on safari and when it opened there was no website and I recieved the classic error "You are not connected to the internet."  But the funny thing is My wireless says im connected. My airport has full bars, i have full service, so i would think  websites would be working, BUT THERE NOT! I tried everything as well (Network diagnostics, Resetting safari, etc.) But nothing seems to work. Do you think its my Mac or maybe a problem that i need to address with my internet provider? Thank you to anyone in advance who helps...PLEASE HELP!    I have an MAC OS X  10.5.8..2.66GHz Intel core 2 duo  4 GB 1067 Mhz DDR3

    Airport may have 4 bars however all that indicates is you have a Wi-Fi signal it does not mean you have an Internet connection though. You may have an issue with your modem, easiest thing to do is power cycle your router and modem then retry.

  • When I try to activate imessage or facetime a message pops up that says to check my network connection but safari is working fine

    I know that my apple ID and password are right because I checked online and I tried changing my DNS but nothing has worked. I am in college and use the university's wifi could that have something to do with it?

    1. Log in as a local administrator.
    2. Take the ownership of the C: driver.
    3. Add your ID in security and give full access.
    4. Change the NTFS permission back to normal.
    5. Reboot the computer.

  • Facetime won't verify my email address and keeps giving me a message saying "please check your internet connection"

    Every time I try to sign into Facetime from my Macbook Pro it tells me it was unable to verify my email and I need to check my connection.
    I have already checked that email to make sure it is verified.

    The first thing I would try is going to System Preferences --> Users & Groups, and set your Apple ID to your username there.

  • Im importing cds onto my itunes but they are coming up with no track names/artists etc, itunes is saying i have no internet connnection but im on my laptop and im online, can anyone help? ive never had this issues before? they are legit cds from HMV?

    Im trying to import cds i got for xmas onto my itunes and they arecoming up with no artist/album cover or track names, when i click get track info it says i have not internet connection, but im on my windows laptop and can get on the internet, is there something i need to so in itunes tmake it rcognise the album details?

    Hey there lollypops21,
    It sounds like you are connected to the internet otherwise, but iTunes is giving you this error message when trying to get info from the Gracenote database to retrieve your album info. I had a couple of articles I wanted to recommend you try. First this one named:
    iTunes for Windows can't access the Internet if proxy settings are incorrect
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1490
    You can always enter in the album information manually with this article if needed:
    iTunes 11 for Windows: Edit song and CD information
    http://support.apple.com/kb/PH12360
    Customize song and CD info
    You can edit information in the Info window to make it easier to find and sort items in your library. For example, you can:
    Group individual movements on a classical CD into one work by indicating the name of the work (for example, “Piano concerto in A Minor, Op. 54”) in the Grouping field.
    Group songs that are part of a compilation together in your library by clicking the Info button and selecting the “Part of a compilation” checkbox.
    Identify the individual artists on a tribute album in the Artist field, and type “various” in the Album Artist field.
    Create your own genre category by clicking Info and typing the category in the Genre field.
    Change the order in which tracks on a CD play by changing the numbers in the Track Number fields.
    Create a Smart Playlist that includes only songs that are just the right speed for your workout by typing the number of beats per minute in the BPM field. For instructions, see Create a Smart Playlist.
    Identify a movie as a music video (click the Options button, and choose Music Video from the Media Kind pop-up menu).
    Identify an item that you imported from a CD as an audiobook, so it appears under Audiobooks instead of Music (click the Options button and choose Audiobook from the Media Kind pop-up menu). If you do this, iTunes also remembers your place in the audiobook.
    Enter custom sorting criteria for an item. Select the item, choose File > Get Info, click Sorting, and enter the custom text.
    iTunes retrieves CD information from the Gracenote media database. For more information, visit the Gracenote website.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    Take care,
    Sterling

    Many Thanks, Kurt.
    I knew I'd seen the solution you've provided somewhere - either in MacWorld or MacFormat - but couldn't remember the Gatekeeper bit!
    I shall save it somewhere VERY safe now in case this happens again …
    You have made an old man very happy and saved me from worrying that senile decay had suddenly set in. (I was 70 last week so you might understand the situation from that.)
