Internet: leopard: yes - snow leopard: no (tried all your tips)

i have upgraded my new macbook pro 17 to snow leopard and i dont get connections to the internet via safari, mail and firefox anymore.
(skype still works!!??)
wlan: full reception but no connection
ethernet: on, but not working either
i have rebooted my modem (alice modem wlan 1121 from siemens), trashed and renewed "locations", did some voodoo rituals, but nothing.
i still have connection with my old macbookpro/leopard and it works great until i try to connect with my macbookpro/snowleopard - then i have to reboot my modem
i can connect via my neighbours modem "zyxel/arcor"
i think snow leo and my modem are incompatible with each other.
help anyone?

I'm having the same problem. I have three computers at home one is leopard and the other two are snow leopard, all connected by airport express which is connected to a siemens DSL modem. Whenever I have the leopard computer connected there is no problem, but as soon as I connect any other of the two computer internet stalls and then crashes. I tried to connect directly with the ethernet cable from the DSL modem and the same thing happens. Internet OK with leopard and about 10 to 15 minutes after I connected with any of the computers with snow leopard internet crashes. Not only that, the whole airport network crashes after a while if a snow leopard computer connects to it. I also tried every little "procedure" both in the computers, airport express and the DSL modem, nothing seems to keep internet or the network up for more than 30 minutes. Hope I can find a solution fast while Apple works on a patch for it.
PD.: Both snow leopard computer had plain leopard before and there was no problems whatsoever, everything changed after the upgrade.

  • I receive a "Problem Loading Page" message, "The Connection Was Reset." I've tried all your tip.

    I receive the "connection was reset" message on 90% of my attempts to visit websites. All sites are bookmarked and safe. I printed out all help information and tried the forum. I am using Windows 8.1. Some of the help instructions seem to be for XP or another OS. The directions do not have certain locations in the help instructions on Win. 8.
    I really have enjoyed Firefox over Internet Explorer but it is really frustrating to have this happening all the time.
    Thanks for any help!

    You can check the connection settings.

    If you do not need to use a proxy to connect to internet then try to select "No Proxy" if "Use the system proxy settings" or one of the others do not work properly.

  • Older model iMac.  Grey screen, no tones, apple logo and spinner, then shuts down.  Tried all greyscreen tips on Apple Website.  Suggestions?

    Older model iMac.  Grey screen, no tones, apple logo and spinner, then shuts down.  Tried all greyscreen tips on Apple Website.  Do not have start up disc.  Do not know what OS it runs.  Suggestions?

    Since you don't have a startup disc you haven't done ALL of the tips on this page http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2570
    I don't know what you've done but you need to follow the tips listed and that could include possibly erasing and reinstalling the OS. Older model iMac does nothing to help us understand what you're working with. You can call Apple and provide them with your serial number and for a fee they'll ship you a set of original install discs or you could possibly use Snow Leopard which you can get for $20 here http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
    You can enter the serial number here for specs on the iMac http://www.everymac.com
    And if you don't know where to find the serial number see here http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1349

  • I cannot figure out why my mozilla keeps hanging up. I've tried all your troubleshooting things. Can you help?

    When I open a website or just checking my email (google) acount it hangs up, and says "not responding" and then take several seconds for it to continue. I have tried all your trouble shooting things and just can't seem to figure it out. Can you help

    Sorry to hear about your problems. I can see that you have the avast browser module installed ([email protected]). This is been connected to other cases of Firefox crashing. Could you try disabling the add-on and see if it fixed the issue?

  • I cannot change my default search engine, despite trying all your suggestions. A friend suggested an add on- google default but for some reason Firefox is not

    I have recently had the problem of Yahoo search becoming my default search engine. I loathe Yahoo having had many problems with them in the past so refuse to use them. I have tried uninstalling and re-installing...no change. I tried all your suggested fixes and none works. There is now no mention of Yahoo when I go to change search settings, but despite this Yahoo is the default search engine. This is intolerable for me and I am seriously on the verge of removing firefox for good. Stop me!!! I am having to send this in a different search engine as in Mozilla firefox this account is inactive...work that one out! It means there is no point giving you troubleshooting info...

    You may have ad / mar-ware changing your settings.
    First, check the programs that are on your computer
    '''Windows:''' Start > Control Panel > Uninstall Programs.
    '''Mac:''' Open the "Applications" folder.
    '''Linux:''' Check your user manual.
    Go thru the list. If you find something that you don't
    know what it is, use a web search.

    This add-on is very simple: on installation, it backs up and
    then resets your search preferences and home page to their
    default values, and then uninstalls itself. This affects the

  • IPod Nano 6gen not recognized by iTunes using a Mac, have tried all the tips.

    I've tried all of the tips on the site, nothing seems to work.  My Mac (OS X 10.6.8) can see the device and my iTunes updates as normal on other devices but the nano suddenly isn't seen by iTunes.  I've reset the settings, checked the USB, nothing seems to work. I'm also getting an error message that says Mac OS X can't repair the disk, its telling me to backup and reformat.  The resetting on the device should take care of this but it doesn't, the device is empty.  All software is up to date.  Any ideas?

  • Having downloaded ios7.1 to my ipad my battery is draing faster than I can use it. Tried all the tips suggested to save battery life but with no success.....help!

    Has anyone else found this too

    I had major issues with the iPhone 4s battery, however it’s resolved.
    The tech who set the phone up at the Apple store did so with little training.
    if you have a mobile me account. First go and move all your data to the cloud by going on your computer and logging in at me.com/move. The cloud has replaced mobile me, so there is no need for those two accounts
    Also make sure that for any of your email accounts you set them up to fetch, not push. My tech person set them all to have the email servers push data to the phone. The new iphone4s antenna is extremely strong so it will continually try to access stuff that is pushed–***** a lot of battery life doing this. It makes it worse if you have exchange 2010 accounts. Something about changes made to exchange really suck battery life from devices that access such accounts.
    turning of locator and the push notifications from facebook--they have a lot!

  • Stuck in Warranty Limbo - Need RMA for MFG limited warranty - Z10 Black Screen - USB not recognized (yes I've tried all the tips from other posts)

    Here's to hoping a Blackberry employee reads this and can help me out.
    I'm stuck in warranty limbo with my unlocked Z10. Bought new off Amazon.ca beginning of April-2014. While on Vacation the phone blue screened and died. It's outside of the online retailers 90 day exchange policy, in which case all I have left is the manufacturers limited warranty. Tried to contact Blackberry and they directed me to my carrier Telus, even though I did not purchase the phone through them. Telus was very helpful, we worked through troublshooting together, but unfortunately got to the same conclusion that the phone needs to go back for a hardware issue. They kindly offerred to RMA the phone for me through their system, however since I did not purchase the phone through them and it is an unlocked world phone it does not recognize the IMEI so they couldn't complete the process for me. There is absolutely no luck getting any help through any of the multiple Blackberry phone numbers I've called. Any help sorting this out would be much appreciated. I will drive the phone to the office in Waterloo if need be.

    You're probably going to have to drive the phone to Waterloo.  
    Here's the situation: You bought the phone from Amazon which has a 90-day exchange warranty. That's mistake #1. Then you registered  the phone for service on Telus' network but the phone wasn't purchased from them so they won't honor any warranty claims (which is their right because they didn't make any money from your purchase of the phone from them). You're in a catch-22 situation. There's really nothing I can advise you to do except buy your next phone from the carrier with which you have monthly service.
    Not much help but that's how I see it. Perhaps others can enlighten me with a different point of view. Cheers.

  • Cannot send messages. Tried all your suggestions, nothing works. Running Windows Vista, problem began after update of Thunderbird on Jan 1

    Tried disabling antivirus. Reloaded Thunderbird, version 31.3.0. Neither worked.
    Problem began after latest Thunderbird update on January 1, 2015. I am able to send email from my iphone and using webmail. But not from my computer using Thunderbird.

    I am on Win 7 64 bit. iTunes and one other program I use could not make a secure connection although I was able to securely connect to online banking, etc. I tried ten different settings I read about in various posts under "Secure Connection" including the links about in your post. Nothing worked.
    What finally worked for me was going into Control Panel, then selecting Internet Properties, then going to the Advanced tab, and then scrolling down to the Security section and unchecking "Check for server certificate revocation*" Note that I undid trusted sites (e.g. no trusted sites needed) and undid all the special Norton IS 2009 firewall settings and everything still worked. This seemed to all start with the updates starting with iTunes rev 9 but I can't be sure as I recently upgraded to Win 7 Premium Home from Vista Ultimate.
    Hope it works for you. I will post this in a few other discussions on the same as I have not seen anything before that worked in my case.
    Good luck.

  • TS3899 Tried all the tips on line. Every time I try to send an e-mail, it gives me this message, "A copy has been placed in your Outbox. Sending the message content to the server failed" Any help in how to resolve would be appreciated

    I went through all the steps to try to resolve getting the message in a box every time i try to send an e-mail. What next ?
    Message is " A copy has been placed in your
                        Outbox. Sending the message content to the server failed."
    Any assistance would be greatly appreciated. My internet works fine as I can send e-mails from my Yahoo account on my MAC no problem.
    Address is fine etc.

    How long has it been going on? I've had my yahoo mess up and if i wait a bit it resolves itself. Yahoo is doing something with their servers and it messes with your mail if your mail happens to be on one of those servers.

  • I have tried everything; no toolbar and only a black square. Hours and Hours I have tried all your suggestions.

    Last week for the first time in ever having zero problems with Firefox for years all I had was a black screen. I've uninstalled and reinstalled several times, searched for hours for solutions, I feel like I've tried them all to no avail. Almost every troubleshooting tip says to start with the toolbar, I have no toolbar in Firefox any longer, only a clear window where I can see my desktop behind it and a black square. Interestingly enough, from memory of course, it's said something about incompatible XP but I've got Windows 7, never had XP on this computer.
    Anyway, I'm using Explorer now and I don't really like it. I've really enjoyed Firefox for years and I miss it intensely. Never had a problem on my other computer, either, but it has XP and I don't use it online any longer.
    Please please please don't ask me to try any troubleshooting that involves starting at the toolbar, again, I have no toolbar, literally a black screen and only the minimize and close buttons. That is all. Thank you.
    I've currently uninstalled Firefox for about the tenth time so as far as I can tell I would have to reinstall again. Thank you for any help that would help me get my Firefox back.

    hello KathyAZ, other users with this problem all had an embedded intel hd3000 graphics card with an old driver present. in case this also applies to you, here would be a link to update the driver, which in turn should also address the black firefox problem: https://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?DwnldID=23764 (for win7 64 bit)
    in case this doesn't solve the issue or does not apply to your system, start firefox into safemode '''by pressing the shift key while the application is launching''' & disable hardware acceleration in the firefox ''menu ≡ > options > advanced > general'' (that setting will take a restart of the browser to take effect).

  • Please help me get my profile back - I've tried all your suggestions and no dice. Please HELP!

    I downloaded Firefox 18.0.1, had a problem with a file that wouldn't close ("something".ini), rebooted the Mac, tried to open Firefox, couldn't and had to download it again. Now, no profile. Use all of your support workarounds, no dice. I need my profile, a lot of the work I do involves research and some of the stuff isn't replaceable. Please help! I promise to be better in the future.

    Sounds like a problem with the profiles.ini file.
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/profiles.ini_file
    You can try to restore the profiles.ini file with the Time Machine if you haven't reset Firefox or otherwise created a new (default) profile already.

  • Firefox crashes on startup and we've tried all your solutions but none work

    Firefox crashes when I double click the icon. I have gone through all the fixes on the website with no improvement. I am able to get it to open only when I right click and use the run as administrator option. I have reinstalled firefox, changed profiles, and tried safe mode option. All had the same effect firefox crashed on startup. I have run four different malware removal programs and restarted the computer, still crashes. I also ran my antivirus program last night and still crashes. I turned off the firewall and still crashes. I tried also the reset option in troubleshooting options but still crashes. Firefox worked fine till yesterday then java updated and the crashes started occurring, I have also done a system restore to before java updated but still crashes.
    here is the crash report information.

    Sorry it took so long for me to reply back to you, things around here got crazy with work and home life and I just had a chance this morning to get the crash report.
    Here is the latest report ID from the computer.
