I have an IBook G3 900mhz 14 inch screen and can't access the Internet
This is making me crazy. I never had a problem getting on the Internet before Videotron wifi. I have taken the iBook, today, to McDonalds-no problem, to our shopping center-no problem, so I know air port is working. When I called Videotron support I got a lot nothing in the way of help. As the iPad works, the iPhone works it must be my iBook.
I see that the Videotron wireless router uses a different encryption: WPA2-PSK and my only choice on the iBook is WPA Personal; that this might be the problem.
Do you think this is the problem? If yes, can I change the iBook?
Does anyone know how to reset the D-Link router to match the iBook?
Please help!
Hi Ivan,
Thanks for the info. I thought that was the problem, but could not find any data. I think my choices now are:
1. Find an AirPort Extreme card for my iBook
2. Purchase a USB wifi adapter that works with OS 10.4.6
3. Purchase a used MacBook
I'm tending toward a MacBook. I am retired now and can't spend a lot of money so please advise on which used Intel model would give me the best cost/benefit.
On the router that the iBook works on, it is a Router provided by Bell United States in our cottage in Florida and it is supposed to be equivalent to the D-Link but we are home now so I don't know the model. I can use my iBook here in Rivière -du- Loup at McDonalds the shopping center, etc. Just not with the new Videotron D-link Router. Videotron has the router locked so I can not access the router's web page to change the encryption. Additionally, Videotron doesn't want to do this for me or give me the password so I can change it.
Thanks, a really big thanks. Also, I wanted to give 10 points but hit the wrong button, sorry, I'll try to change it.

My ipad mini doesn't have a web browser! Help. I can't access the internet or iTunes or the app store. The web browser icon isn't even there.Anyone know what to do?
I'd maybe try doing a search for Safari on your iPad first (swipe to the left to search). If it shows up in that search you can go to Settings > General > Reset and choose 'reset home screen layout' which will put it back where it would be by default.
All else fails? Restore it. -
I have a 64 bit Windows 7 laptop and can not access the itunes store.
No error, just sits there saying "accessing itunes store". Any ideas?
Close your iTunes,
Go to command Prompt -
(Win 7/Vista) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES, right mouse click "Command Prompt", choose "Run as Administrator".
(Win XP SP2 & above) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES/Command Prompt
In the "Command Prompt" screen, type in
netsh winsock reset
Hit "ENTER" key
Restart your computer.
If you do get a prompt after restart windows to remap LSP, just click NO.
Now launch your iTunes and see if it is working now.
If you are still having these type of problems after trying the winsock reset, refer to this article to identify which software in your system is inserting LSP:

I have converted a pdf to word. How can I access the Word file from my online account?
I have converted a pdf to word. How can I access the Word file from my online account? When it says 'download the converted file' I choose a location on my PC and click, but nothing happens. It seems that it can only save the converted file to my online account. I went to my online account but I see no way to look for the file
Hey Fabrizio,
You might need to sign up at "https://cloud.acrobat.com/exportpdf" using your Adobe ID credentials to convert your PDF file to Word.
Do you get the 'download' prompt?
Also, you can find the converted files by clicking at the 'Files' tab.
Please try the same using a different browser and check.
Hope to hear from you.

Have you tried to go into your settings, reset, reset network settings? It'll erase your current network from your iPad and let you start over. -
I have a new mac book pro/LION and can't access my back up data when I click on "enter time machine". I need the back up data that I could access on my old mac book pro (that is now broken). I can only access time machine back up data that I've obtained since starting the new mac book pro. Tnx so much
Try doing a click-and-hold on the Time Machine icon in the Dock, then select "Browse Other Time Machine Disks".

I have some magazines subscription on my iphone5S, how can I access the same in my ipad under the same Apple ID?
Well, if it's that annoying to you, I'd go to the nearest apple store, but before you do, you should make reservation to see the genius there. I'm sure they will help you. Just show them where the stuck pixel(s) are.
But honestly, though I don't want to be a downer here, but even if you get it replaced, the possibility that you might get more stuck pixels when you get a new one. But of course, you can also be lucky that you can get a perfect one too. Usually stuck pixels should fix it self (not all the time tho). -
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 am unsure whether it can be reformatted? On the summary when I plug in the ipod (pretty sure it's a nano 4th gen) it shows the format as Windows. However now I have a Mac, I can't access the music library on the ipod, and I'm not game to try 'export' as I don't know what it will do, and I won't sync as I will lose that music library. I am thinking of making an appointment to see the Apple staff at the shop but I'm not sure if I will need to get a new ipod in the end??

Dear Mozilla,
I am having some difficulty accessing the internet with Firefox on one of my PC computers. I normally use Mozilla Firefox as my web browser and google is my homepage and gmail is my email system. The operating system is Windows 7. For over a year this system worked perfectly but a few days ago it stopped working. When I launch Firefox now I get the message that that website (www.google.com) is unavailable. In fact, I can’t access any website and I am blocked from the internet entirely within Firefox. My internet connection is fine because Internet Explorer works fine. I can access google and any other website within that web browser. I have investigated all the security issue I can manage and found no smoking gun. I’ve tried uninstalling and reinstalling Firefox to no avail. Is Windows 7 compromising the effectiveness of Firefox? Any suggestions or other assistance you can offer would be appreciated.
Sincerely,
Randy Brown

My Macbook Pro cannot sustain Safari for more than 5 minutes. Once I hit return the "working" icon just keeps going round and round. The only way to access the internet or my email is to totally shut down and then restart.
Is there something I can check to see if there is a virus or is this a common problem. I just returned from a trip to the states and had no problem using my laptop there. I have had no problems until about 6 hours ago.
