Ichat works with wireless, but not ethernet

Just moved into new office and bought new iMac. I can get internet with ethernet or wireless, but iChat works only over wireless. This is true with my intel Macbook as well. Is this a port or firewall problem, and if so, why would wireless work, but not ethernet?

Who is supplying the wireless internet connection?
Who is supplying the wired internet connection? If
it's two different entities, the IT Secret Police may
be blocking ports on the wired side.
TimeWarner comes in from the outside, but a private contractor is involved in the setup of the wireless which is connected to the TW modem. But if the wireless goes into the TW cable, why does it work as wireless, but not directly plugged in? It is as if converting the signal to wireless cures the problem.

  • HP D110 AIO printer. Prints jam when printing with wireless, but not when hooked to USB cable! HELP!

    I have a HP D110. It jams the paper when I print with wireless, but not when I use USB cable. Any ideas?

    From what you describe you are having issues printing from MS Office. Have you had trouble printing from other resources on your computer (e.g. from the internet or another program)? The first thing I am going to suggest is that we start by uninstalling and reinstalling the printer from the resources available online. 
    First if you use a USB cord, make sure to remove it (this is important). Do not plug it back in until the software directs you to. Then go through the Devices and Printers, Programs and Features and Device Manager folders and insure that all copies, files, and programs related to the printer are removed. Then as directed, restart the computer. 
    In the START menu type "%temp%" and press ENTER. Here I want you to press Ctrl+A and hit DELETE. Some of the files will not allow you to delete them, skip those files and delete the majority that allows it.

    Install that and let me know the result!

  • Strange on - Wake on LAN (WOL) works with Win2K3, but not Windows 7

    Hi,
    I have a PC that I originally had Windows 2003 on.  With Win2K3, I can send a wakeonlan (magic) packet (WOL) and get it to power on remotely from my home network/LAN.
    I just installed Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit, in a dual-boot configuration, i.e., so I can boot the machine to either Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit or Win2K3.
    As mentioned, I can power the machine up remotely (from my home network/LAN), but if I've LAST booted into Win7, then shutdown, it doesn't respond to the WOL packet.
    I've confirmed that if I boot into Win2K3, then shutdown, the WOL works fine.
    I have another PC that has both Win2K3 and Windows 7 (also dual boot), and that works fine with WOL.
    One difference between the one that doesn't work vs. the one that works is that the one that works is a machine that I just built a couple of weeks ago, which uses an MSI 880gm-E43 motherboard.
    The one that doesn't work also has an MSI motherboard, but it's an older one, an MSI K9NBPM2-FID.
    I've cross-checked the various Windows power management settings between the one that works, and the one that doesn't work, but I just can't get WOL to work with Win7 on that older machine.  I've even turned the Windows Firewall off completely on the machine where WOL isn't working, but no matter what I've tried thus far, no joy :(...
    The only thing that I can think of is that the network card driver (it's the MS one, from the Win7 distribution) might not work with WOL, but I've checked, and it's the latest driver from MS (Nvidia Nforce Networking Controller - 10/17/2008 - 1.0.1.211), and MSI doesn't have a specific Win7 64-bit driver for this motherboard.
    So, I was wondering if anyone has any ideas about this?
    Is there some registry setting or something that might allow WOL to work?
    Thanks in advance,
    Jim

    Hi,
    Unbelievable!
    Just for the record, I got WOL working with the older machine, JUST after I posted the original msg.
    Here's what I did:
    - I was in Device Manager, and did Update Driver, but
    - I selected to let me choose, and then I checked the "Show Compatible devices" checkbox
    Then, a 2nd, older (10/6/2006 - 6.2.0.127) driver appeared, so I figured, "what the heck?" and tried that.  I then shut the machine down, and sent a WOL packet to it, and kind of forgot about it (machines in a different room), but a few minutes later "bing!", the machine had powered up and booted into Win7!!
    Anyway, as I said, for the record, and hope that this helps someone in the future.

  • Airtunes works with music but not with tv show

    I have an AE wired to my to my A/V receiver and I play itunes music wirelessly thru the AE and it works fine. Problem: I downloaded a TV show and the audio will not stream via the AE and will only play thru the computer. The video works fine fine in both cases as I have it hooked to my TV via my A/V receiver from my Macbook display port. I am running itunes 8.1 and my AE is on firmware version 7.4.1.
    Anyone know why the songs audio works and the tv show audio does not?

    Thanks for that fast and definitely a fix at this time. It also works with internet radio, not just the iTunes radio stations. Now my wife will be able to listen to KFOG from San Francisco and I can actually hear my movies, since I am using a MacBook and it is just not loud enough.
    Thanks Again Andy.
    I love these forums.

  • Why does the FP 10 work with firefox but not with IE8

    I down loaded the folowing for xp FP uninstall, FP plugin and FP debug from the link in one of your replys. now I can watch youtube  with firefox but not with IE8. you asked me before if i was using 16 bit. whats that mean and how do I find out? please help I just want to watch youtube on IE!

    Ok Shag, since you hadn't been on a Forum before, then I'll take some of what I said back:-) I wanted you to stay on one thread, you can get in trouble trying things that may cause you more problems than you had in the beginning. I just had your best interest at heart
    I'll even overlook your all caps here:-) At least you responded
    Now since you say you fixed it, what you should do is to confirm it is fixed by taking a look at your Flash folder. This contains all of the Flash files for IE and FF. Then make sure you have the IE add on and the FF add on. That way if you have any future problems, at least you would know it is not the Flash Player.
    You should only have 2 .exe files for IE and 1 for FF.
    For Video editing, I would check Microsoft and see what they have. Perhaps someone else will come along with other info for you.
    No, I don't get paid here, since I am not an employee. Just a user helping others, since I had a problem at one time and after 4 hours of researching solved it.
    Let me know if you want to check the Flash files.
    Thanks,

  • When I click on pictures in eBay or Facebook. It will not show the pictures....Will work with IE but not FF

    When I click on pictures on eBay and Facebook...it will not show pictures/enlargements...just blanks....will work with IE. NOT ff

    You can use these steps to check if images are blocked:
    *Open the web page that has the images missing in a browser tab.
    *Click the website favicon ([[Site Identity Button]]) on the left end of the location bar.
    *Click the "More Information" button to open the "Page Info" window with the Security tab selected (also accessible via "Tools > Page Info").
    *Go to the <i>Media</i> tab of the "Tools > Page Info" window.
    *Select the first image link and scroll down through the list with the Down arrow key.
    *If an image in the list is grayed and there is a check-mark in the box "<i>Block Images from...</i>" then remove that mark to unblock the images from that domain.
    See also:

    There are also extensions (Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) and security software (firewall, anti-virus) that can block images.

    I go to '''www.thegarden.com''' I click on the tab '''View Full Calendar'''. It does not open. It works on AOL but not Firefox. And for some reason it also does not work when I use Internet Explorer. The majority of times when I click on that tab (in Firefox) it does not work. On a rare occasion it will open. I am not doing anything differently either time.

  • Apple TV working fine with Wireless, but not on Ethernet

    I just got an Apple tv for my B-day and I can't get the Ethernet port to work.
    It works fine on wireless but if i plug in the cable to my 5 port switch that then goes to my router it will not login to the store, or sync or fine youtube. It has and ip and everything. I tried opening that port 38 something. And no go? Does anyone have any ideas?
    I have a 2wire router, and one 5 port switch, the PS3, Wii and Xbox all work on the switch just fine.
    I even upgrade to firmware 2.01

    Thanks for your help guys
    I have tried another ethernet cable but no go. I'm going to get a new one at the store today. As for the IP. the first time I plugged it in the IP was way diffrent from the one on my router so i manually added the new ip and subnet mask etc etc. And still no go. It is seen in itunes but tells me it can't sync. And if i go to the Apple TV it will not open any of the web enabled features. No you tube, no store, no nadda.

  • Time capsule wireless works with computer but not  other devices.

    Wireless internet from the time capsule works with the laptop, but not with any other devices or computers. They pick up the wireless signal, but can't connect. Any ideas?

    Thanks for the response. I appreciate any help you can give. The internet modem is from Insight Cable and is an Arris TM602G.
    Wireless Mode = create a wireless network
    Radio Mode = automatic
    Wireless Security = WPA2 Personal
    Internet > Internet Connection tab
    Connect Using = Ethernet
    Connection Sharing = Off
    Internet > DHCP tab
    DHCP Beginning Address = ? I'm not seeing where to get this info.
    DHCP Ending Address = ?
    I did notice on the summary that it shows 4 wireless clients, which I assume are the computer and the other devices that can't get the internet but get the wireless.

  • Itunes doesn't seem to synch "wirelessly" with my iphone.  It seems to work with emails but not photos / videos I've taken on my phone.  Also, there is no "device" listed on itunes menu bar, only when connected via cables

    My computer / iTunes is set up correctly for wireless (account info. all good), and emial is synched wirelessly.  BUT not photos / videos or songs.  I seem to have to plug my iPhone into my computer for iTunes to recognize my device.  Shouldn't iTunes recognize my iphone wirelessly?  For example, I have read that "device" should show up in menu bar on iTunes but it doesn't unless I'm cabled in.
    Also, when I go to my iPhone to "synch wirelessly with iTunes", the button / tab doesn't light up for me to chose and tells me will synch when "smith - laptop" is available.....
    This is my first iPhone, and just got it so may be user error.....
    thanks

  • Ichat works with macs, but can't send/accept invites with pcs

    bear with me, still a newbie/read discussions, this is my 1st post. audio ichat ok with mac friend, but ichat menu options won't allow invite audio or video chat with sister using pc, even though i downloaded aim 6.7 in addition to ichat. i have road runner and digital videocam with firewire, sister has comcast with logitech quickcam, she was able to ichat with mac friends. i've read ichat help & discussions, contacted applecare & roadrunner & aol, no luck...
    1) should i uninstall aim6.7?
    2) ichat preference shows camera/mic/bandwidth/but no port option, need to open port 443 with firewall on? how? where?
    3) what info is my query missing?
    4) i'll upgrade to 10.5 + airport express + 20"display soon, will that cause other issues?
    5) is this a repair permissions issue somehow? i've pulled tips on weekly maintenance. my entire family is waiting, i'm at a complete loss...please help.
    thanks, teta bepa

    howdy steve,
    good news first. ichat worked a-ok with my mac friend. i have os10.3.9, ichat av2.1.3, panasonic digvidcam w/ firewire. mac friend has os10.4.1, ichat av3.1.8, imace w/ isight. simple as pie, no problem to start ichat, good sound and video, couldn't have been easier. connection doctor info looked fine too, video and audio at 100%. yippee!
    this mac friend had previously been able to ichat with my pc sister, not perfect, but they certainly made contact for videochat. as for my contact w/ pc sister, i'm still trying and hoping...
    pc sister upgraded her aim to version 6.5.4.16, via comcast.net by the way. i also told her to allow aim6.exe exception in firewall, and directed her to ralphjohnsuk info too. we both shut off our firewalls, as had my mac friend. FINALLY in my buddy menu options, i was able to send videochat invite to my sister. ichat said "sending invite" and "starting videochat" but that's as far as it got. at least the connection doctor did not mention "no response" or failed or anything like that, connection doctor just seemed to wait for audio/video info.
    what do you think is going on? it seems we're very close to actual videochat. at least my mac is getting fewer error messages, it's waiting for videochat to start. the even bigger mystery is...how could my mac friend have previously gotten videochat w/ my pc sister, but nothing now?
    now we 3 are at wit's end as to how to loop in my pc sister. i truly appreciate any insight you may offer. thanks for your time and expertise. take care.
    teta bepa
    (by the way, i'm upgrading to os10.5 and will attempt videochat when i'm wireless w/ airport.)

  • Airport Extreme working with iMac but not with Windows 7 Laptop!

    My iMac (OSX 10.5.8) has been working fine with my Airport Extreme, but a new member of our household cannot connect wirelessly with their Windown 7 Laptop. The PC can see the wireless name for our household and says it is connected to it, but there is a problem actually connecting to the internet. Has anyone experienced similar problems? We are at a loss as to what to do. Applecare were no help (despite forking out for the advanced applecare warranty) and both Mac and PC service providers blame each other. Any advice would be much appreicated. Surely the Airport Extreme can talk simultaneously to PC and Mac wireless computers?

    I have had the same issue. Airplay working with all devices apart from one windows 7 (the actual media server) and have spent over a week trying to resolve it.
    This worked for me.
    Turn off windows firewall and in my instance macafee. Be warned while macafee says that it's off there are services running all the time.
    You will need to open macafee settings and turn off access protection first
    Then search services from start bar
    Open services and filter by manufacturer
    Stoop all macafee services
    Right click the start bar
    Open task manager
    Stop all macafee processes
    Try your airport utility you should now see your express
    If you can you will see your icon in iTunes
    This pores that it's likely to be a macafee issues. Of course you do not want to leave the firewall off so I installed macafee and installed a fresh copy turning both the windows and macafee firewall on with no resultant issues
    Hope this helps
