I really need help with my internet on my mac

Okay I have a 13 unibody mbp 2009 and i cannot connect to the internet in any way (either airport or eithernet cord). I have reset everything and it still doesnt work. All the other computers in the house do. Even the bootcamp windows side works on my mac just the mac side doesnt. I am running 1.5.8.
Please help me!
I really need it running

Open System Preferences/Network
Select the location you want to fix (e.g. Home) in the top selector
In the left hand column delete all the Services except Airport (which should say Connected ?)
Click the Advanced button
In the window that opens delete all Networks except your home/router named one
Click TCP/IP
Set Configure IPv4 to Using DHCP
Click OK bottom right and you should see the Router fill in the number 192.168.2.1 (or similar) and your IPv4 address as 192.168.2.2 (or similar)
Click the DNS button and add 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4
Click OK
Click Apply
Close the panel
You should have an Internet connection through your router

    Apps downloaded with an Apple ID are forever tied to that Apple ID and will always require it to update.
    The only way around this is to delete the apps that require the other Apple ID and download them again with yours.
    Or simply log out of iTunes & App stores then log in with updated AppleID.

  • Really need help with MSI R7970-2PMD3GD5/OC:(

    Greetings to all,
    I really need help with my brand new MSI R7970-2PMD3GD5/OC. I've purchased it two days ago and I didn't really have time to test the card until yesterday. The card is I think way to hot for my "liking". It idles at 56c-60c, at full load in Heaven benchmark 3.0 in 1920x1080, extreme tessellation and 8xAA card reaches 95c-97c. Stock cloacks are 1010Mhz/1375Mhz and stock voltage is 1,174v. Case is being cooled by two Noctua NF-P12 fans. Also I tried lowering the voltage and "underclocking" the card to a standard 925Mhz in small increments, but it doesn't help at all. Each and every time it results in BSOD and dx dll errors and complete system failures. Replacing the card wouldn't be a problem if I lived in a "normal" country that has access to a steady supply. Retailer that sold me a card told me that only 5 cards total have been imported from the launch day and told me that i bought the "last" card in my country. They could order a replacement but it would take them more then a month to do so.:( Ohhh and one more thing I don't overclock, everything in my case is at their default values.
    Recently, I read that "Amd released" a bios update for a standard reference boards that turns them into a "GHZ editions". Also lot of users report a lower voltage requirements and lower temps with that "boost bios". As I understand this card pcb is not Amd's reference board design, I could be wrong it's not that uncommon.. So I didn't want to risk warranty by flashing it to a position 1. Will MSI release the boost bios for this model of card? I am humbly asking MSI staff on how to proceed regarding this problem. I would be immensely grateful for any help you could provide.

    what PC case you use exactly?
    have you tried to open PC case side door and to retest?
    Hi,
    it's open case. If i close it the temps get even worse:(
    They get better for other components, but not for gpu. Two Noctua NF-P12's are cooling the case, first one is positioned above gpu, left side next to cpu. Other is right beneath the gpu, right side of case. Just under the hdd section of the case. I tested each and every component with my backup card nv 8500gt. They function within the specified parameters. I'm getting somewhat worried.

  • I REALLY NEED HELP WITH MY CURVE 9300'S WIFI!

    HI !
    i have a blackberry curve 9300, OS5. I got it secondhand. It worked really great, but the problem started when I've done that thing within the host routing table. Though my wifi is connected, I can't use the internet. whenever I tried the BB browser and any other application (e.g. facebook, opera mini, etc.) i get a message that says 'i am not in an area that supports blah blah...' or 'unable to connect to internet please try again later'. I checked the browser under browser config and it is set to my local network provider. i changed it to hotspot browser, saved it. But whenever I go back it also goes back to my local network provider. i have tried almost EVERY troubleshooting I've read on this forums and in other forums but still no luck. The problem worsened when I did a security wipe on the emails, contacts, etc.
    -APN settings are disabled
    -default browser set to hotspot browser
    -firewall disabled
    -data services are on
    Everyone said that it has nothing to do with that activation enterprise so I did not configured it after wiping.
    I also tried doing a hard reboot (pulling the battery out and waiting for 5 minutes before turning it on) but it will only fix the problem for sometime and it will go back again.
    Calling my network provider would just suggest to get a plan when in fact, I was able to use the device's wifi well before without any plan.
    I don't want to upgrade my BB to OS6 coz it easily drains the battery of device and I cannot afford doing that because I go out a lot.
    I also tried changing my sim card and network provider but wasn't successful.
    I also tried deleting the name of my local network provider in the service book under options.
    What do you think could be the problem? Any suggestions? I really, really, REALLY, need help.
    PLEASE ! THANK YOU VERY MUCH IN ADVANCE!

    Hi miochan984,
    Welcome to the support community!
    A supported data plan from your mobile network provider may actually be required to use the Facebook for BlackBerry smartphones application as well as the browser. I would recommend verifying with them which services they support over a Wi-Fi connection without a data plan.
    Let me know if you have any other questions.

  • Please I really need help with this video problem.

    Hi!
    Please I need help with this app I am trying to make for an Android cellphone and I've been struggling with this for a couple of months.
    I have a main flash file (video player.fla) that will load external swf files. This is the main screen.When I click the Sets Anteriores button I want to open another swf file called sets.swf.The app is freezing when I click Sets Anteriores button
    Here is the code for this fla file.
    import flash.events.MouseEvent;
    preloaderBar.visible = false;
    var loader:Loader = new Loader();
    btHome.enabled = false;

                t.stop();
    The problem is when I test it on my computer it works but when I upload it to my phone it freezes when I click Sets Anteriores button.
    Please help me with this problem I dont know what else to do.
    thank you

    My first guess is you're simply generating an error. You'll always want to load this on your device in quick debugging over USB so you can see any errors you're generating.
    Outside that, if you plan on accessing anything inside the SWF you should be loading the SWF into the correct context. Relevant sample code:
    var context:LoaderContext = new LoaderContext();
    context.securityDomain = SecurityDomain.currentDomain;
    context.applicationDomain = ApplicationDomain.currentDomain;
    var urlReq:URLRequest = new URLRequest("http://www.[your_domain_here].com/library.swf");
    var ldr:Loader = new Loader();
    ldr.load(urlReq, context);

    If you're doing this on iOS you'll need to stripped SWFs if you plan on using any coding (ABC) inside the files. You mentioned iOS so I won't get into that here, but just incase, here's info on stripping external SWFs:

  • Really need help with this, can't use safari on my ipod

    I clicked on a link on a website for my school, and then it opened in another page. idk if i clicked something or this happened on its own, but then a video tried to open from the image. I've messed around with my settings, and i can't seem to be able to get a youtube video to open on my ipod if it's from a website, i always have to go directly from youtube to find anything. So it says "could not load video", the only option is to click okay, so I do, and then it gives me the main ipod youtube page, with history and search and all that stuff. I give up and decide to just look at something else, and click safari, except it goes straight to the image, which goes straight to the unloadable video on another program, and then i have to close the page. It goes in circles, but it means that safari is unusable, and my computer is broken, so i really need it for internet.
    Also, is there a way to make youtube videos viewable from a website link?
    And why, when I search up a popular song on youtube on my ipod, and type in that i want the lyric video, i only get live versions, and there is never any lyric videos, and i usually detest live versions of songs?? and then when i search the same thing on someone's computer, i get my lovely lyric videos? Is Youtube angry at Apple or something?
    aand why were the older ipods less crash-prone?
    answers are very helpful, especially for the first question, because i am clueless about technoloy. Honestly, it took me a year to learn how to turn on my computer....

    A lote of sitesuse the Flash version of YourTube. no iOS devices support flash. The you have to either use the YourTube app or Safari to go to YouTube since Safari tells the YouTube site to use HTML5.
    For other problems withwith Safari try going to Settins>Safari and clear Histor, Cookies and Data.
    Also reset the iPod. Nothing is lost.
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

  • New to the World Mac and I need help with the internet?

    Hi All,
    I've purchased a second hand eMac from a local College last summer and I've finally got around to connecting it to the internet (after 20 + years of working and using PCs). All is great or I thought???
    There is a few problems that I still encountered and hopefully someone can help?
    The spec of the Mac is 1 GHz PowerPC G4 (768 MB SDRAM) running Mac OS X Vers. 10.3.9.
    For the internet I connect via Safari 1.3.2 (v312.6). However, I cannot access Hotmail, selected sites outside of the UK and also when I go into Facebook the interface (layout) is a mess and I can't access various options available. I tried to download Safari 4.0.4. for SnowLeopard, but it won't allow it as I don't have the Billings of Materials?
    Does anyone know how I can resolve the above or point me in the correct direction.
    Many thanks in advance, JJ

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
    Version 1.x of Safari is old in Internet years, and many sites using advanced coding (or non-standard coding) won't render properly. Later browser versions have more support for the non-standard HTML that for instance MS webpage programs generate as well as support for more recent authoring tools. Which is a long-winded way of saying you're on the right track, you need to update your browser.
    The later versions of Safari require OS X 10.4 or later. Your eMac can be upgraded to 10.4 or 10.5, but it'll be easier to first try a free third-party browser such as Firefox or Camino or Opera (Version Tracker and MacUpdate are good links to start from when looking for software and updates).
    Note: moving among different browsers on different platforms, I can confirm that it's all too common for sites to render differently, with layouts off from a little to a lot.
    As for being blocked from non-UK sites and Hotmail, if that still crops up with Firefox, check to see if the school that sold you the computer had proxy servers set yp that might be blocking some sites. You can also go to Apple menu, System Preferences, show built-in Ethernet or Airport depending on which one you use, click on the Proxies tab, and see if anything is checked/active there.

    I know what to do, i just don't know the codes for them.The idea is that you figure out "the codes." This generally means taking a guess at an approach that you think will work for one of the steps, writing some code, testing it, seeing if it produces the output you expect, figuring out why it didn't, changing it, repeating until you get it right, moving on to the same process with the next very small piece, and so on, until each piece works by itself, then putting the pieces together, and testing and tweaking until it works.
    I know the code is gonna start with m = p.substring Why?
    Why substring?
    Why immediately m = ?
    You don't think there will be any intermediate steps?
    What you're doing here, rather than following the process I describe above, is grabbing a handful of buzzwords that you think apply, slapping them together, then throwing your hands in the air and crying, "I don't get it."
    Where are the String API's? Can someone give me the link to them?I think they already did, more than once.

  • I really need help with my decision in purchasing an iPhone 4! =(

    I will just go to my main concern.
    I lost the phone of my aunt which is an iPhone 4. It was stolen from my bag. Out of common sense, I have to find a replacement because I know the my aunt invested money on it. However, brand new iPhone 4 here on our country are still pretty expensive for my budget. It is also hard to find becuase mostly stores no longer carry it becuase there is now iPhone 5. So, i have no choice, but to purchase a second-hand iPhone 4. So far, the second-hand iPhone 4 that I saw are from Singapore and Japan.
    Now, my question. How can I be sure that the iPhone 4 that I purchase will work in the United States when my aunt will go back to the US. She works and live in the United States. I want to make sure that she can use the phone when she goes back to the United States.
    Please please please I need help.
    I am already stressed finding money to buy a replacement. 

    Verizon's offers full theft and loss protection. I am an attorney and tend to read fine print :)
    The $8 a month is nominal compared to the benefit and peace of mind. I have had it on all my phones and typically you have to ask for it.
    Over the past two years I have used it twice. My phone at the time was an HTC Evo, about a $500 phone. To replace outside the 2yr contact you must pay full price. That is $1000 for 2 phones.
    The insurance cost me a couple hundred plus the deductibles. That's under $500 to replace two phones, or a savings of about $500 or 50%.
    Even if you replace 1 phone in two years, your saving a few hundred- more if its an iPhone which retails starting at $700.
    It all depends on where and how you use your device. If you never replaced one before the you may be better off without. I also don't put cases or screen protectors on my phones. I wouldn't dare put one on my beautiful iPhone 5.
    Just a thought, if you don't have insurance, you should be ready to drop $750 at any given time for a new iPhone. Otherwise you end up with a temporary flip.

  • Really need help with this one!!

    hi all im posting here in the hope that some one can show me some light at the end of the tunnel as to my bb problem as its starting to get depressing now!
    long story short ive had bt bb for 4 weeks now and im paying for 8mg as thats the fastest my area can provide but my transfer speed is locked at 2mg maximum. countless phone calls later they said its a throughput issue and they will put a request in to reset my profile and everything will be fine. as i thought it didnt work. lots of phone calls later they said i had to wait 10 days after the request is put in for my speed to increase. waited 12 days and still nothing! more phone calls later they eventually sent an engineer round who said himself he cant see why my downloads are locked at 2 mg when after his own tests he said the line should be giving me at the very least a stable 6.5mg so he proceeded to put a request in of his own to a bt computer thats codenamed "rambo" to increase the speed to my house. he said i should see results after 4 hrs but in some rare cases its taken 72 hrs to kick in. so i ended up waiting 4 days and still **bleep** all. im so so sick of bt and all the **bleep** they are feeding me as they keep telling me every single time they say there gonna fix it that this time it will 100% fix my problem and it never does. really feel im being ripped off cos im paying for the top package in my area and im not getting anything anywhere near what i should be. can anyone please help with my problem it would be very much apreciated.
    thanks for reading all this peeps

  • Need help with second hard drive on mac G4

    I recently took apart another computer and installed the hard drive on top of the "master" drive hoping I would be able to download more videos, music ect but when i try and download anything message pops outs that my disk is almost full i need help as you can see. I thought all i had to do was connect the drive but I guess that wasn't it.

    chuck818, welcome to Apple Discussions.
    What size is your Master HD & how much free space do you have? Are you getting messages about the HD being full?
    Insufficient HD space can lead to many problems - freezes, directory/file corruption, etc.

  • Need help with 6263 internet.

    Hello, I bought my 6263 from T-Mobile last week and I am trying to tether it to my laptop but when I do I don't get Edge network speed.It also doesn't show the E on the screen.. When I use my T-Mobile Dash I do have Edge. Can someone that has the same phone let me know what the internet settings are. I have talked to Nokia and T-mobile and no one seems to know anything about this phone. Also, I was wondering if there were supposed to be settings under the dual mode setting. Mine is blank. Thank you. Any help is appreciated.

    Hi, i'm having a similar problem with my new nokia 5300. i can not get it to connect to the egprs network. What's funny is my dad has the motorola w490 and he can't connect with EDGE either. So, does T-Mobile have EGPRS? They say they do on their website. It really looks like we need the Access Point URL for the EGPRS server, like 'internet2.voicestream.com'. I, too, cannot get any help from T-Mobile, in fact the tech support dude would not even take my call about the EDGE on my phone, even went as far as too say that my phone does not have it! which was a slap in the face (nokia's manual, t-mobile's manual, the sales rep at the corporate store, their OWN website (t-mobile.com), and my education in computer science). So what's really going on? Any solutions, let me know.

  • Really need help with CS5 constantly crashing.

    I last posted here about 5 months ago with problems with CS5 hanging or crashing. And then the advice was to remove all third-party plugins which I did, I also deleted a whole slew of fonts that had been installed by other applications without my really noticing. Something worked, because CS5 became relatively stable. I was able to work on big multi-layered files. I even reintroduced some of my plugins without causing any problems. But a few weeks ago it started crashing again. It is much worse than before, I can't use it for more than a few minutes, usually, before getting the dreaded "stopped working" error message. Sometimes I don't even get past Camera Raw, because Camera Raw hangs. The crashes seem to be random, they don't occur in relation to a particular task, it can happen when I am opening a file, or saving one, or at almost any time in between.
    It is CS5 32 bit on Vista Home Premium (32 bit). I have 4gb of RAM, the graphics card is an ATI Radeon 3800 series with 512GB. (Not the greatest, I know, but it is on Adobe's list as a supported card. I don't mind upgrading the card but I'd like to know that it will solve the problem.) It has the latest drivers installed. I've tried running Photoshop with with Open GL Enabled and with it not enabled. It doesn't make any difference. I have reset the preferences. I have, of course, uninstalled all the third party plugins. I've checked for duplicate and corrupt fonts. I uninstalled and reinstalled CS5 and all the updates. Nothing has helped and i have no idea what else to try.
    (The really infuriating thing is that CS runs and is stable on my old laptop, which is running XP and has integrated graphics and 1GB of RAM. It's very, very slow, and I can't imagine what it would be like if I was trying to work with loads of layers, but it never crashes.)
    The Event Viewer log description is not enlightening, unless I am missing something:  Faulting application Photoshop.exe, version 12.0.4.0, time stamp 0x4d9d8cbc, faulting module unknown, version 0.0.0.0, time stamp 0x00000000, exception code 0xc0000005, fault offset 0x5b780000, process id 0x%9, application start time 0x%10.
    Any suggestions would be most welcome. I have work piling up and I'm getting desperate.

    Thank you, Noel and Chris.
    Chris, that is exactly what is in the log:
    process id 0x%9, application start time 0x%10.
    I guess I should start really worrying now, then!
    Malware, well, I do regular complete scans. The last one was just a couple of days ago. I'll do another.
    A few days ago I also ran sfc/scannow, which reported some corrupt files, which were supposedly repaired. And some files that could not be repaired, which the cbs log revealed to be some truetype fonts (not system fonts). I reinstalled the fonts anyway. Running the scan doesn't reveal anything now, but I don't know how how reliable it is.
    Re the .NET error, I wonder if this relates to the shutdown process. I have noticed that after getting the message that Windows is closing Photoshop it then sometimes hangs and I have to close it manually from Task Manager.
    Noel, I have checked the RAM, though only using Windows Memory Diagnostic. It didn't find anything amiss. I also ran CHKDSK, which didn't find any hard drive errors.
    But bottom line, it looks like my problem is a system problem and not a Photoshop one, I guess, so I really shouldn't even be posting all this rubbish here! I'm still not sure why the only application so far affected is Photoshop, except that perhaps it is the most resource hungry application that I run.
    I think I need to make the time to buy that new system.
    Thanks again!
