Imac FaceTime unable to connect to network (safari connected and loading pages).

I have a brand new Imac, I have never been able to get facetime to work. It keeps getting hung up on the log in page, and eventually gives me an error message of unable to connect to network. Safari and other web based programs are working perfectly.
Any Ideas?

How can I get my Mac to join an open 3Com wireless
network? The network is recognised but Mac is unable
to connect...
The 3Com wireless router is connected to a broadband
router through a PC running XP.
Do you have two routers? That may be your issue. You should only be using one router, or configure one of the routers and turn of DHCP.

I was having issues with firefox so I upgraded to firefox 4. I am connected to the internet but when I open firefox or even internet explorer it says Unable to connect problem loading page. Nothing will pull up!!! No help link or anything!!?

I don't know if you are still having the issue but if you are have you contacted your ISP? It sounds to me like it's more of a connectivity issue than a browser problem. I've dealt with similar things several times and in both cases it was something with the modem or an ISP setting.
I'm also wondering if it could be a Wi-Fi issue. Can you log in to your router? (It varies by brand but you would go to a site such as http://192.168.10.1. That is for Trendnet. The information for yours should be in the documentation that came with it.)
You should be able to get the router log in page to come up even if you can't connect to any websites. (Provided the network is set up correctly.)
I also would double check your connection settings (if you're connecting over Wi-Fi) or your ethernet connection. (If you're connected directly to the modem and router.)
Hopefully one of these suggestions will be helpful.

Imac i7 unable to connect to router at 270mbs on DGN2000

Hello,
I have a Netgear DGN2000 router and i decided to switch the speed settings from 130Mbs to 270Mbs, but after doing so my imac was unable to connect. I tested my windows based laptop and that was working fine. I switched back to 130Mbs and it connected.
I've checked the Network utility and the Link speed is currently at 54Mbs (not even 130Mbs).
Airport is compatible with Draft N speed but why is my Imac not even connecting to the router when i select 270Mbs, any suggestions?
Many Thanks
S

Wireless connection speeds (or lack thereof) are a bit difficult to figure out; for instance: do you have anything else that is using the network which still only works with the earlier slower "g"? Usually the network will only work as fast as the slowest (weakest) link. How far is the iMac from the router and are there any obstacles in between (walls, ceilings, anything metal, appliances, etc). And, who is your ISP, how old are the cables they are using from their hub to your house, is there a splitter?
After almost 2 years of mediocre speeds with Comcast, it was finally determined that a) their cable from the box to the house was defective and replaced and b) they supplied a new splitter. At the same time, I replaced all the Cat5 cables with Cat6 and got a new router (Netgear WNR3500) and haven't had a problem since.

My ipod 4G won't connect to my wifi at home with new router. Says "unable to connect" and won't give me any other options. Have tried resetting network connections. Help.

My ipod 4G won't connect to my wifi at home with new router. Says "unable to connect" and won't give me any other options. Have tried resetting network connections. I don't want to lose anything. I have tried turning everything off and back on again. Desktop and laptop are working fine. Sometimes it turns on suddenly and I can use it for like 20 mins but then shuts off again. Same thing is happening with my dad's iphone, Help.

Does the iOS device connect to other networks?
Does the iOS device see the network?
Any error messages?
Do other devices now connect?
Did the iOS device connect before?
Try the following to rule out a software problem:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Power off and then back on your router
.- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
- iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
- Wi-Fi: Unable to connect to an 802.11n Wi-Fi network
- iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem and it does not connect to any networks make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

Can't delete or edit a Mail account that is unable to connect and it keeps notifying me

Can't delete or edit a Mail account that is unable to connect and it keeps notifying me and asking for password. Macbook Pro with Yosemite. If I highlight the account and go to Mailboxes, "Edit smart mailbox" is greyed out. Delete the mailbox is an option, but the mailbox just doesn't go away and no error message displayed. Tried Mail/Preferences/Accounts, highlighting account and using minus sign, it tells me the account is shared by other applications and gives me an option to go to Internet Accounts. At Internet Accounts, the only mail account showing is iCloud. Meanwhile, the pesky Mail icon is jumping around the bottom of my screen.
Can anyone help?

Did you ever find a fix for this? Mine is doing exactly the same thing, even with 2.01 - I hoped that might fix it. I'd rather not have to reset and erase the whole phone.

When open Firefox 8, says 'Unable to connect' and no websites work. Internet connection is fine. Please help :(

My Firefox automatically updated to Firefox 8. Since doing so, when I open the browser the screen displays a box saying 'Unable to connect' and says the same for any website. My internet connection is fine. I uninstalled and installed Firefox again, but problem persists. Please help as this is really frustrating me :(

Did you try this?

Safari is not loading pages correctly or even not at all. Help please!

So my Safari is not loading pages correctly, making some have just plain text with no images, and others partially loaded with no images or no video.
Some pages, after trying to refresh, completely refuse to load and say that Safari can't find the server. These pages work on firefox, which is also on the same computer and what I am having to use to type this currently.
I have already reset Safari, as well as disabled extensions (which I didn't have any) and neither has fixed the issue.
Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

Safari will not load pages after logging into certain sites

Mac OS X 10.4.11, Safari 3.1 running on a Power Macintosh G4 "Quicksilver" 2002. All software updates are installed.
After I log into certain web sites (Apple Support Discussions being one of them), Safari simply stops loading pages. It will "try" briefly but each page comes up blank. In fact, they don't even appear to download.
This has been going on for a while now. I can't even remember when it started. I have done fresh installations of Mac OS X on to a clean disk to try and solve the problem. This has not resulted in any improvement. I am not using any extensions or modifiers.
As an experiment, I've tried a few Webkit Nightly Builds. Those did not work any better.
On some sites, such as eBay, Safari will put an empty file on the desktop. eBay is a prime example--after I sign in, an empty file called eBayIsapi.dll appears on the desktop.
Seemingly this has been reported other places. What I didn't find was a fix. Is there anything that can be done to resolve this problem?

I've just given up after several versions of Safari doing the same thing. It seems to be a bad interaction with Websense web filtering blocking some things that Safari expects to be able to download and process.
I don't even use Safari any more because of this.

New iMac Cant Hold Internet Connection (and finds a lot of networks....)

Hello,
I have one of the new 20" iMacs released 8/7. My problem is that my iMac cant hold an internet connection and it finds a lot of possible networks to which it can connect.
I am certain the issue lies with the iMac because my old Powerbook G4 has no problems connecting to the internet and it is sitting literally next to the iMac. Furthermore, I actually had purchased an iMac about a week ago and that one had no problems connecting to the internet either. (I returned that one when the new iMacs were released.) So that means 2 Macs had no problems connecting to the internet from the same location yet this new iMac does.
One thing I have noticed about this new iMac is that it detects many more networks than my Powerbook or the iMac from last week. I live in Manhattan so there are networks everywhere. Sometimes the iMac will give me 15 or so different networks to connect to and seconds later the choices drop to 5 or so. When I try to connect to the network I want (my network) the connection doesnt hold and it frequently drops. It takes me forever to download anything. I have to write this post on my Powerbook. My Powerbook only detects 2 or 3 possible networks to connect.
I rebooted, etc. and that did not work. I shut the Powerbook down so that it would not "compete" with the iMac and that did not work either.
Any suggestions/ideas?

Hello Wireless groupies:
I have had wireless problems with my laptop and my power mac this week, but all is well for me now.
The grass roots issues of wireless communication in terms of physics are related to amplitude and frequency. The amplitude is controlled (signal strength) by the power setting of the router and the portable device. The amount of power in the signal is measured in watts per square meter and is controlled by the broadcasting units settings.
The frequency at which the router broadcasts is changed by channels available in both units. I believe the portable units scan each channel for base station transmissions just like the radio in your car/lorry . The frequencies associated with each channel on the base transmitter can be assigned by the user for the best reception in the local broadcast area, most likely your home. The area which you operate has many different interference parameters which degrade signal strength just as in your portable radio reception. In the base station world it is based upon digital transmission encrypted (D to A) into an analog signal then decrypted at the laptop from analog to digital signal.(A to D). Experimentation is probably the only method to determine which is the best frequency to operate between your devices.
It should be noted that the new Imac's have an extended frequency range because they use a 'N' class wifi set of components. The N class wifi allows for higher frequencies and extended ranges. A base station which is a G class wifi can only broadcast in the lower frequency range and hence the availability of the higher frequencies of the new Imac are irrelevant because the Imac must receive only what is is transmitted in the 'G' range, 'N' class reception and hence the benefits of higher frequencies are not available. The only solution is to have 'N' class devices through out the network, otherwise everything reverts to the 'G' class range of lower frequencies. The solution to extend the frequency range of the network is to upgrade ethernet cards and base stations, so that 'N' class frequency transmission can be utilized.
The network will work with 'G' and 'N' devices but the network is only as good as the lower class device of transmission and reception.
I would start by getting an extreme network airport base station and then experimenting with different channels at a midpoint power transmission. The best frequency would be one which delivers the most power at a set power transmission level (signal strength). The higher the frequency the greater the penetration through walls, beams, people, dogs, cats, pipes, tabletops....:). I would then experiment with the power levels for the range which you want to cover, most likely just your home and not your entire neighborhood.
In my house I use channel 6 and power level 5 from a 2wire gateway/router, which is in the G extreme class range. I have always used channel 6 but I have tried power levels 3, 4 and 5. The biggest interference variable being weather and cordless phones. The cordless phones operate in the 2.4 GHZ range and the 900 MHZ range. The phone directly above my router is a 900MHZ phone and it never interferes with the 2.4 GHZ wifi network. I think the worst phone to have with a G class network are the 5.4GHZ phones because they actually use some of the same wireless bandwidth. A 'N' class network would probably be a better choice if you want to use a 5.4GHZ phone system.
good luck

My firefox won't work; It says "unable to connect" and I have tried all of the tips for troubleshooting and it still wont' work.

Firefox opens up with an "unable to connect" message; it also says it cannot establish a connection to the server with these three bullets: 1) The site could be temporarily unavailable or too busy. Try again in a few moments.
2) If you are unable to load any pages, check your computer's network connection.
3) If your computer or network is protected by a firewall or proxy, make sure that Firefox is permitted to access the Web.
I have tried to do all of the tips that you have on your website for troubleshooting and nothing seems to work. I know it is not my Internet connection because my roommates can get on Firefox without a problem and my Internet Explorer opens just fine.

If your iPad is defective and is still under warranty, you can take it to an Apple Authorized Repair Center and get it fixed. If you are worried about a defective replacement, then a repair may be a better way to go. <Apple Authorized Repair Centers>
Personally, I would prefer getting a replacement. You read about many defects here in this forum, but they only represent a tiny percentage of all iPads sold.

IP Printing Issue -- Unable to connect and print

I'm trying to print to a network printer that's connected by cable to my wireless router using IPP. The error message reads "Unable to connect to IPP host." The IP address I used for the printer was obtained from the printer test page. I also specified "generic postscipt printer" in the printer setup utility window. My printer and network info as follows:
Printer -- HP LaserJet 4MV
Router -- Linksys Wireless G
Computer -- Powerbook G4, OSX.4
I've reset the printers in the Printer Utility to use the latest version driver for the HP. I can browse using my PBk so my wireless connection is working (in fact the PBk is in the same room as the router). Any suggestions would be very much appreciated.

I don't have a manual for the printer and I'm not aware of a print server being included in the hardware. The printer is simply a HP LaserJet 4MV which has a I/O card installed with local talk, 10Base-T, parellel, and BNC connections. I'm using the 10Base-T connection to my router.
On the test page printout, it lists several things one of which is "Server Name" but it's blank with no entry. Under the heading "Mode" the entry reads "Queue Server." Don't know if any of this is relevant.
