Internet Connect quitting.
I have always been unable to connect to the network at my University by using AirPort. Instead, I have used Internet Connect and have been able to access the network without problem. (The ITS people needed to change few settings for me at first.) After upgrading to SL, however, Internet Connect will not open. When I try to open, I immediately get a message that it "quit unexpectedly." I've restarted several times, but no change. Not sure what's going on. Any ideas? Is this a bug?
Hi there Stig77.
Have just got my MacBook Pro and was hoping it wasn't going to come with Snow Leopard pre-installed but it has and I am trying to do exactly what you are....... trying to connect to my University through Internet Connect. Exactly the same problem! Have you had any luck solving this since you posted? Would appreciate you letting me know if you have.
Thanks

Why does an internet connection quit for no apparent reason?
For over a year I've had no problem staying connected to the internet using a
modem and cable (Shaw) but lately the connection has been stopping after a couple of minutes: pages won't fill and Safari enters the ice age!
I've tried repairing disk and permissions but no luck, can anyone suggest anything?
Thank you in advance,

Pay no attention to it's mention of WPA2, it's fixed the problem for a few other methods too. -
I’d really appreciate some help with a G5 I have recently acquired. Thankfully I have a MacBook to keep me sane however the G5 is driving my family mad.
Although about 3 years old it has hardly been used except for internet so the memory isn’t clogged up. However, the internet runs really slow and frequently will only work after Safari has been restarted several times.
I have a cable modem that runs the G5 via Ethernet and the MacBook via wireless. Frequently the internet connection quits when both are running simultaneously.
Should both computers be set for sharing the internet connection? At the moment neither has been set up for sharing.
Many thanks for any help offered. SusieHi DP
It's a 1.8GHz PowerPC G5
Memory - 1GBDDR SDRAM
It used to be used with a dial up modem and I have tried changing the settings to my cable modem using Network Set Up Assistance but can get no further than the bit that asks for DHCP client ID. My ISP won't provide one although it is clear from the network status that it is using ethernet.
I've also run the Disk Utility program - but that didn't show up anything too ominous.
Other than that I don't know what else to try apart from making some alterations to both macs so that they are set up for internet sharing. Do I need to do this?
The main problem as I said is the internet connection seems to just come and go and often when it goes it's gone forever - until you restart the G5 and it's back again...
Sorry I'm not very literate with these things so would appreciate any help you can offer.
Many thanks Susie -
Workgroup Management stops working when internet connection is down
Our 10.5.8 XServe works perfectly fine as long as the office internet connection is working. As soon as the connection drops for more than a couple of minutes the server connection speed drops to a crawl and drops user connections. Also Workgroup Manager cant be used and the icons become inactive. As soon as the connection is back online everything works fine. We built another boot disk on a tower and it also does the same.
We've tried running DNS on the server and also using a basic DNS setup in the network settings nothing seems to fix the problem. A simple test is to run WGM with/without an internet connection (quit after each attempt) and try to add/edit users.

Sudden quitting of application like internet connection and Solver
there are a couple of issues with my Mac Book Pro-early 2011
1. The modem based internet connection takes almost few minutes to get connected and to open the home page.
2. some applications like Solver and even the internet connection suddenly get disconnected with a message "the app quit unexpectadly"
3. Sometimes the applections won't quit for a while, needs to be forcefully quit.
My Mac software is:
Mac OS X-Lion- 10.7.3
Kindly provide the needed help
Regards
JagannathWhen you're waiting for something to quit, open up activity monitor (Applications > Utilities > Activity Monitor.app), click the 'CPU' column (click it twice if necessary, you want the arrow/triangle pointing downwards) and find the name of the process that's eating up all the CPU.
Post its name here and we'll tell you what to do next. -

Help Menu Quits when using Internet Connect
When a new user account (with admin. priveleges) is opened, the help menu functions perfectly. After connecting to the Internet (modem) the help menu will not function. (can't get any response on any underlines or ? window). I've tried the file deletions suggested in theXlab document, checked the internet connection using "ping' report with no luck. No 3rd party add-ons. I can use any program and return to help and it is operable, until I connect to the internet.
To again get to help, I must create a new user account. This restores the help for tryouts until invoking internet connect. Using OSX 10.4.5. Any suggestions. Apple phone support is referring this to some tech support person.
Am I alone with this problem???Hi John,

WRT54G3G-ST router - no internet connection - can't reset router
Hello. Definite longer story definitely not short (I apologize for the rambling length... I don't know what is and isn't important, so scan at will, please... I am sorry...): Recently my computer (Dell XPS 400, Windows XP Service Pack 3, Internet Explorer 7 with phishing filter and pop-up blocker on, SiteAdvisor, up-to-date McAfee Virus Scanner and Firewall, and a Linksys Wireless-G WRT54G3G-ST router with its power adapter plugged into the wall electrical outlet and a network cable from it directly connected to my computer.) got a drive-by Generic.dx trojan without me downloading anything from one of the few sites I visit daily. My internet connection crawled, and I now have no connection at all.
I've been getting help from McAfee forums very helpful and quick good volunteers... They recommended Malwarebytes Anti-Malware to me, which I downloaded from my second clean computer (a laptop) to my flash drive, then to my infected computer. I ran it, tried updating it as recommended, and only then discovered the trojan killed my broadband entirely. I scanned with it anyway, and it quickly found and removed/quarantined 11 Adware.MyWebSearch related files, but nothing else. They then gave me a link to an offline updater patch file, and told me scan in safe mode until nothing else was found and check if it fixed my lack of broadband access. Which I did, Malwarebytes found nothing else, but unfortunately I still had no broadband.
Next, they recommended WinsockXPFix. Which I ran and it made all its registry changes OK, I rebooted as required but still no broadband unfortunately. Did using WinsockXPFix make things worse for me with the registry changes it made? I used its registry backup to save the pre-changed registry files prior to running. Should I revert back since I still have no broadband connection? The McAfee volunteers then kindly told me I needed to hard reset the router, though I've tried countless times with no fortune. I'm at a definite loss as to what, if anything, I can do to hopefully get my broadband back, please...
It's very confusing with the numerous different variations to reset routers, and what I need to do for my router model (Variations: Unplug this cable/adapter exactly where, or not; hold the reset button between 5-30 seconds; rebooting the computer, or not; waiting 1 or 2 minutes between various steps, or not - and for all of these at what exact point in the reset process.).
I reset it once before with the reset button, routers page at http://192.168.1.1, default admin password, then changed it for security, etc; but this time I can't get it to work. I'm happy as can be to try again, to get a walk-through maybe, anything please... When I go to http://192.168.1.1 now, or any other address, Internet Explorer gripes at me that I'm offline, which is annoyingly correct. I don't have, and never had Zone Alarm, but disabling my McAfee Firewall doesn't help. IPCONFIG at the Command Prompt gives me a Windows assigned address of 169.254.X.X
I was going to use the routers Setup Wizard CD to try to reset the router, and if that failed to try to get its firmware version number to maybe upgrade. But I was going to ask here first for expert advice since I've read many things that can go wrong while upgrading firmware. However, scanning the CD (Without running the CD.) McAfee found the virus W32/HLLP.Philis.ini in the file "D:\_desktop.ini" on the CD. McAfee didn't delete the file, I don't know why.
I scanned my entire computer several times and no infections were reported. I uploaded the file several times to both www.virustotal.com (39 online virus scanners), and virusscan.jotti.org (20 online virus scanners) and every time every virus scanner reported no possible infections. Is my up-to-date McAfee virus scanner reporting a false positive and yet Jotti and Virustotal's 2 McAfee scanners report the file as probable clean? Is "_desktop.ini" a legitimate Linksys file? I found no information on Linksys/its forums about it. My problems just keep multiplying...mentioning of more problems...
Finding that suspect file on the CD I decided to instead download the Setup Wizard from Linksys
(Router product page: http://www.linksysbycisco.com/US/en/support/WRT54G3G-ST/download
Actual file: http://downloads.linksysbycisco.com/downloads/WRT54G3G-ST_SetupWizard_4_2_06042008.zip)
to my flash drive, then to my infected computer that is connected to the router. I ran it (Downloaded file version: 4.2.0.007 - Original CD Setup Wizard version: 4.0 printed on CD front.) and it immediately gave 1 of 3 options: Mobile Broadband Only, Broadband WAN Only, or Broadband WAN and Mobile Broadband. I don't know what damage, if any, I caused by continuing.
It looked like it was trying to go through the entire router setup process. I thought it would take me to some options to reset the router, as I've read in the User Guide and elsewhere - that was my understanding. The setup process stopped at only 30% done "Router not found, please make sure the router is properly connected and try again." How much overwriting of original router setup files did I do by continuing? I'm entirely confused. Doesn't the Wizard check if the router has been previously setup prior to setting it up again? Did the version difference cause my router to not be detected by the Setup Wizard? Did the Generic.dx trojan that killed my broadband trash my computer settings so bad that my router is undetectable/essentially not setup?
Update of sorts: I tried one last time to reset the router, and I unplugged/plugged the network cable. Doing that I still had no broadband on my main usage Dell XPS computer that's connected to the Linksys router. However, my laptop, with Data Card in the router, was for the first time able to find the network - the constant connection and speed is brilliant, it's what it allways has been on the laptop (Since the trojan/router problems, my laptop only had broadband with the Data Card in the laptop.). Maybe the network cable simply wasn't re-connected properly/entirely during 1 of the many reset attempts, it indeed could also explain the downloaded Setup Wizard not being able to find the router/only getting 30% done.
Laptop Command Prompt IPCONFIG /ALL with Sprint Data Card inserted in laptop computer slot:
IP Address = 174.158.XX.XXX (Sprint)
Subnet Mask = 255.255.255.255
DNS Servers = 68.28.90.91
68.28.82.91
Laptop Command Prompt IPCONFIG /ALL with Sprint Data Card inserted in router:
IP Address = 192.168.1.1XX
Subnet Mask = 255.255.255.0
Default Gateway = 192.168.1.1
DHCP Server = 192.168.1.1
DNS Servers = 192.168.1.1
Since my laptop started working with the Data Card in the router I haven't tried again to reset the router, nor have I tried the downloaded Setup Wizard. I don't want to mess anything up further than I have(?) / the trojan has, and I need some expert advice, please, as to which of the 2 if either I should do (first?). On my laptop computer only, typing http://192.168.1.1 in Internet Explorer gets the pop-up for username and password, but I haven't proceeded. I've read you shouldn't reset the router and/or(? Is it both or just 1 please?) upgrade the firmware unless the computer is directly connected to the router - which my laptop is not. On my other computer that still has no broadband, Internet Explorer still tells me I'm offline when typing http://192.168.1.1 into it. My IP Address on it is still a Windows assigned 169.254.X.X and a Command Prompt PING 192.168.1.1 returns with "Destination host unreachable.", as it allways has and same with all other addresses (Except for 169.254.X.X).
Annoying 2nd "update" of sorts, apologies for length, as allways: I've been so focused on the trojan/broadband killing that I've cluelessly largely forgot that I have dial-up with AOL. Trying AOL dial-up also does not work, the insanity thickens... AOL software tells me to check my connection, but all phone cords are plugged in as should be. I plugged a phone directly into the wall outlet and I get a dial tone, I can call out OK, and the phone rings and gets calls OK. Device Manager-Modems-Properties-Device Status says the modem is working properly, and Resources Tab shows no conflicts. Diagnostics Tab's Query Modem looks OK to me, as does the log, but as allways I'm definitely no expert. I didn't change any settings anywhere.
I have noticed off and on that checking IPCONFIG it says my IP Address is 192.168.1.100 It lasts maybe a day (then goes back to 169.254.X.X), maybe longer, I don't know - I don't check that often to pin it down (Should I?). During this time neither my broadband, nor my dial-up works. I can PING 192.168.1.100, but nothing else. I'm convinced the evil trojan killed both my broadband and dial-up - I've never had a problem with my Conexant D850 56K V.9x DFVc Modem prior. Also, I'm not convinced the trojan is not still lurking everywhere on my computer, I think it is...
Any and all help in restoring my broadband/dial-up is greatly appreciated, please... Thank you!
Solved!
Go to Solution.Hello. It's been entirely too long since I've replied, I'm sorry. There's no excuse, and it's terribly rude of me... You took the time to read and reply to me, and I endlessly appreciate that indeed. I apologize for my long delay, I'm sorry...
After I left my message I downloaded many virus/spyware scanners, etc. from my laptop onto my flash drive, then my other computer for some needed thorough deep scans. One that I downloaded was Network Magic, which somehow, someway fixed both my broadband/dial-up internet on my main computer that's connected to the WRT54G3G-ST router. I don't know what/how it repaired my connection, but the broadband connection/speed has been working brilliantly since... Network Magic worked for me, and I highly recommend it to everyone who has stubborn complete lack of internet problems (caused by trojans at that) as I did. There's no guarantee it'll work, but it did for me to my amazement.
Network Magic, as is Linksys, is owned by parent company Cisco. Respectfully to all the good knowledgeable experts here (Which clearly I am not.), I don't want to tread out of my bounds. I'm simply trying hopefully to be helpful and save some headaches for both you the volunteers and the users...buying a new router and/or computer was on my mind, with all due respect I recommend suggesting to try Network Magic to users if resetting the router/all else fails, please. I did use WinsockXPFix/WinsockFix utility prior to using Network Magic, I don't know if that matters.
I also upgraded my McAfee package, I installed over my old software instead of uninstalling first, which caused errors in the virus scanner of all critically needed things. I have it installed properly now, but it did cause quite a delay in re-focus of my time. Some of the virus scans also found many trojans, some were the same/in the same folders that killed my broadband - which stopped me in my tracks to insure uninfected cleaning.
That definitely doesn't entirely explain the long lapse of time, and I apologize for that, again. It's just that I'm trying to be cautious and slow in all this. To answer the first very good idea you made: Unfortunately, there's no place on my other computer to plug the router in to, which all the more so caused frustration (at the time). I forgot to include this in my novel length post of countless things to check/remember... It was a brilliant idea though, thank you...
I thank you for your time and help, I do sincerely appreciate it... Thank you... I think, and hope this matter is solved. It seems to be, the router is working perfectly as it allways has, and I'm positively happy as can be about it. Thank you... Peace... -

I ended up giving up on it for the time being, just using my SMC NIC. Would be quite interested in finding out what the problem is though.
Anyone else in the same boat?
Hi,
Your problem is not the same, SiliconMan is trying to connect with a dial-up modem not LAN. Your problem sounds like it may be configuration, do a search on this post, I'm sure you will find people with onboard LAN troubles. It's hard to troubleshoot though since you didn't provide any info about your computer. Good Luck

Voice control does not kick in place of SIRI when there is no internet connection
i have an iPhone 4s. i mainly use WIFI at both home and work. and am quite happy with SIRI. but when i leave home for work or am on my way back home after work quite often i press and hold the volume button to give voice command to call my wife. but SIRI does not work!
well, because SIRI needs internet connection and i dont bother using mobile internet (cause then i will need to turn on 3G which drains my battery like nothing on earth) it can not work.
but why does not my ordinary voice control kick in? since 4S is such a great gadget and is so smart in every way (apart from the pictures taken with the volume button could not be turned to adjust orientation in windows!) i was expecting this would be a normal thing to expect from it.
anyways, hope someday they would fix this.I'm assuming you can either use Siri or Voice Control, but not both. I think if you turn Siri on the activation used to use Siri is removed from Voice Control and vice versa. This is just my own theory. Maybe a future software update might allow this.

last night I was downloading something for church (I am new to Mac notebooks it's the first one I've ever owned and I've owned it since March 2014). I have never had a problem ever with this computer that's one reason I love it. So after I was downloading this thing it sent me somewhere and to download my file so I had download my file well I don't think it downloaded the file I wanted because I never saw that file ever again I've tried everything to figure out what's going on because now my Internet is pretty much crashed it says that there is no Internet connection I have pop-ups that want to stop me using my Internet and says it's unavailable then last night when I was on a site I have all these things at the top and at the bottom that show me other prices for things and I can't figure out how to get those off I go to their website for removal and there is no removal for Mac. Google is my search engine it will not let me put in Google when I go to type for google it throws me on Yahoo no matter what Yahoo has pretty much taken over my Internet and I don't know what to do it it's a mess. Can someone please help me I am definitely not Mav Savy.

The following comes from user stevejobsfan0123. I have made minor changes to adapt to this presentation.
Fix Some Browser Pop-ups That Take Over Safari.
Common pop-ups include a message saying the government has seized your computer and you must pay to have it released (often called "Moneypak"), or a phony message saying that your computer has been infected, and you need to call a tech support number (sometimes claiming to be Apple) to get it resolved. First, understand that these pop-ups are not caused by a virus and your computer has not been affected. This "hijack" is limited to your web browser. Also understand that these messages are scams, so do not pay any money, call the listed number, or provide any personal information. This article will outline the solution to dismiss the pop-up.
Quit Safari
Usually, these pop-ups will not go away by either clicking "OK" or "Cancel." Furthermore, several menus in the menu bar may become disabled and show in gray, including the option to quit Safari. You will likely have to force quit Safari. To do this, press Command + option + esc, select Safari, and press Force Quit.
Relaunch Safari
If you relaunch Safari, the page will reopen. To prevent this from happening, hold down the 'Shift' key while opening Safari. This will prevent windows from the last time Safari was running from reopening.
This will not work in all cases. The shift key must be held at the right time, and in some cases, even if done correctly, the window reappears. In these circumstances, after force quitting Safari, turn off Wi-Fi or disconnect Ethernet, depending on how you connect to the Internet. Then relaunch Safari normally. It will try to reload the malicious webpage, but without a connection, it won't be able to. Navigate away from that page by entering a different URL, i.e. www.apple.com, and trying to load it. Now you can reconnect to the Internet, and the page you entered will appear rather than the malicious one.

The facts are:
1. There is no anti-malware software that can detect 100% of the malware out there.
2. There is no anti-malware that can detect everything targeting the Mac.
3. The very best way to prevent the most attacks is for you as the user to be aware that
the most successful malware attacks rely on very sophisticated social engineering
techniques preying on human avarice, ****, and fear.
4. Internet popups saying the FBI, NSA, Microsoft, your ISP has detected malware on
your computer is intended to entice you to install their malware thinking it is a
protection against malware.
5. Some of the anti-malware products on the market are worse than the malware
from which they purport to protect you.
6. Be cautious where you go on the internet.
7. Only download anything from sites you know are safe.

iTunes RADIO is not working.
“iTunes could not connect to the iTunes Store. Make sure your internet connection is active and try again.” Try as I may, as many as ten attempts, trying to connect after restart, after shutdown, nothing works. Just so …
iTunes STORE not “connectable” with my otherwise perfectly-working internet connection, viable, up and running for all other uses.
Simply put, firstly, I can't connect to the internet when I click on Radio. People are quite suspicious that this is Apple incompetence or your company's famous arrogance for this commonly-suffered problem that you won't or “can’t” fix.
Read the many web comments and you won’t be pleased with yourselves: the suspicion is that if you ruin internet radio on iTunes, Apple will somehow make more money on music downloads, etc. Bull.
Also, thirdly, my old playlist of 20 or so internet radio stations in the Ambient category STILL PLAYS !
Then fourth, I installed the latest available version of QuickTime Player 7.app Version 7.6.6 but it didn’t solve the problem either. I had QuickTime Player.app Version 10.2, but substituted what Apple website said was the latest, LOWER NUMBERED QuickTime Player version of 7.6.6
Fifth, I can't connect to iTunes store no matter what I do or what user group's advice I try. So I can’t buy or download anything from iTunes. Bad for business.
Sixth, I updated to the latest version of iTunes but this weird problem remains. All suggested Apple fixes or user group fixes are useless. Where is Apple’s famous technical competency, vaunted customer support?, and user-friendly product reputation? Get it back, please.
Solve this problem of yours ASAP for us, your numerous disgruntled, dissatisfied customers of iTunes. You can do better, should, and really –in all fairness- must.
===============================================================
NOTE: no password for iTunes exists in my Keychain. Is this a problem?
Apple ACCOUNT ID, and iTunes ID password, works but not to access iTunes with my healthy internet connection.

<Edited by Host>This my sound too simple, but I just kept clikning on the arrow next to the selected music and it finally "Kicked" in.
I live in Europe ,So Be persistent and don't give up ! Aug. 2013 -
I bought a first gen Mac Mini for our daughter and it doesn't have internal airport adapter and was wondering if I got a airport express can I plug it in my daughters room and use it as a local router and just use the eithernet connect from it. Or would a airport extreme work better for this job. I have a wireless cable modem that we connect to. I also have a second question I have a iMac G4 that picks up the wireless signal but will not connect to it does it have to be a Apple airport for it to work or should it be able to connect to any broadcasted signal. Thanks for the help.
I'm not sure I quite understand. Do you wish to use the AEX to provide a wireless connection for a device that has an Ethernet port but no wireless capability of its own? You wish to use it in place of a wireless card that isn't internally installed? If so, the answer is, "Yes." It will work as a wireless access point. But you must have an extant wireless network because the AEX won't have an Internet connection when used in this way.
If you have an existing wireless network with a wireless router connected to your cable/DSL model or your modem is a wireless router as well, then the AEX may connect to it in bridge mode. Note that AEXs don't always play nice with non-Apple routers. Some work; others don't. -
After upgrading to Lion my internet connection doesn't work
Hey folks,
MacPro 2010, wired connection through Verizon FiOS, upgraded to Lion (via App Store) back in July, but now my wife says she can't get on the Interent
on her account, even though all connections are good, she has an IP, subnet, DNS are good, the ethernet settings say she is connected, but using Chrome (13.0.782.122) or Safari, just hangs on browser launch. No URL will resolve no matter what site I enter. But when I log out of her account and into mine I can connect using the same Chrome browser just fine.
The only thing I can come up with is Chrome has had issues for quite some time on Snow Leopard and Lion when trying to update. About Chrome will display there is a new version and hitting the Install button will result in a "Update Server not available Error Code: 12". Any workaround by the Chrome Blog was not helpful, and uninstalling and reinstalling the program would sometimes work. But every so often when I would manually check About Chrome it would mysteriously be updated all by itself, and I was fine. Eventually though, every so often I would check and it would say there's a new version and I would get the infamous error. I could never seem to update the program myself. I would have to wait until it did it on its own?
I don't know if fooling around with Chrome's insides (using AppTrap to get rid of Chrome, manually deleting Preferences.js files, etc) corrupted something on my wifes account, which is a limited account and had some Parental Controls enabled - although she had Allow Unrestricted Access to Internet Sites checked off. I DID, however, have the Apps section restricted at some level, and I believe certain Chrome features were blocked ( like google updater), because while logged into her account, chrome would pop up: "you don't have access to GoogleUpdater...etc" and another one named "xml or xmd" something or other, I can't remember exactly so I apologize. But while troubleshooting the no internet issue, I hit "Always Allow" for both messages, put in my password and she still couldn't get on the web, even when I turned off Parental Controls altogether. I couldn't even do a Software Update, it would just not move.
I even opened a Terminal window and Pinged www.google.com and was receiving replys at a steady rate, so I don't know what else to try. Safari is also exhibiting this same behavior, so I'm thinking its a common issue with both browsers since both use Webkit? I could be wrong obviously...
I'm at a loss as to what it could be or what to test out. Any help would be welcomed.
PhilipI had this problem on SL and on Lion as well, and it occures for WiFi and Ethernet connections.
In fact the internet connection was not broken as I could ping the destination usin the IP (not DNS name).
In this case the problem was related to mDNSResponder task which handles all dns queries.
It was the most frequent problem in my day to day work with SL and now Lion. It was never fixed by any patch from Apple. I tried almost all voodoo including fresh install, all possible config changes - no solution.
The only version with no problems related to network was 10.5.8. All the other versions had issues of different kind (WiFi instability (lost signal), DNS problems (for wireless and wired connection) sometimes associated with machine sleep and wake up and sometimes with no reason.
QUESTION: Is your problem independent of the access point / router you connect to.
I must say networking was (and still is) the weakest part, besides the other OS X weaknesses I experienced during 4 years of OS X usage.
No problems in the same network with Linux or Windows beeing ran natively on my iMac So hardware is OK.
Software is of poor quality. Not much more to say in this matter.
I found a very interesting article dated 1996 about programming which I think is still valid.

Software is everything. It also s***s.
"It's like pre-Sumerian civilization," says Brad Cox, who wrote the software for Steve Jobs NeXT computer and is a professor at George Mason University. "The way we build software is in the hunter-gatherer stage."
