Internet problems! MacBook. I have tried every tip I've found online so far. please help
Internet works fine on all other devices. It does NOT work properly on my MacBook. I get good speed tests (ping:8ms Download Speed: 23.31 Upload speed: 4.95) and streaming video is fast, but browsing is incredibly slow. When sites eventually load they are faulty and pictures are broken. that's if the the site loads at all. I get all kinds of different results. page not availible ect.
I brought my MacBook to school and then everything worked fine. I can't figure out if it is my network or my MacBook that is the problem.
I have tried:
- using different browsers
- using multiple different DNS adresses
- Changing location
- Renewing DHCP
- Flushcache in terminal
- deleting all knowt networks
- restarting the computer
- changing MTU from 1500 to 1453
- turning off IPv6
altso when I run network diagnostic, IPS, intenet and server shows red, but I'm still conected and streaming videos and stuff. and when I run software update it takes forever and ends up telling me I am not connected to the internet.
Don't assume I know what I'm doing. All the things I've tried comes from tips online. I am an comlpete idiot when it comes to computers and especially internet stuff..
I got MacBook Pro 7.1 (mac OS X version 10.6.8)
please help.
You can try this, double click on your HD .selecy your home folder>Library>Preferences, locate the file com.apple.NetworkUtility.plist
Drag this to the desktop (which will create a backup) Do not trash
Try loging out, shut down. Then login and try retrying, if no joy you can drag that file back to it's original location (it will ask if you want to replace. click yes)
Then we can try a couple of other things, this is not an uncommom issue, and does not seem to have a definitive solution that I have yet to to see.
I have however had some sucess by doing a comlpete a reset on the 10.6.8 machine in networkwork utililities (applications/utilities/Networkutility .app and running thru the prompts.

I had no idea that I needed to use a CD to download my Adobe Photoshop Elements 12 onto my MAC desktop and have already registered the product; how can I now download it? I have tried looking on the web and no luck. Please help me!
You don't need a CD to download anything; just download & install the trial from http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/tdrc/index.cfm?product=photoshop_elements, then activate it with your serial number.

I am running W7 and FF 14.01. My admin account FF works fine. My working account has the problems. In the past I have been able to get the bookmarks back but not this time.
The bookmarks were there yesterday morning and gone in the afternoon. Nothing changed between the AM and PM to my knowledge. I tried every solution I could find online but still no bookmarks.You can consider the [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/reset-firefox-easily-fix-most-problems Reset Firefox] feature via '''Help''' ('''Alt''' + '''H''') > '''Troubleshooting Information'''. Once reset, copy and overwrite the '''bookmarkbackups''' from the previous [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder Profile Folder] into the newly reset profile folder after exiting Firefox. To do that type '''%appdata%''' in the Windows '''Run''' box (Windows key + R) and browse to the '''Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles''' folder. The '''*.default''' is the old profile, and the one with the random numbers is the newly reset profile. Once overwritten you can try to start Firefox in the reset profile and restore the backup. If this doesn't help you can also try to right-click the bookmarkbackups folder in the old profile > '''Properties''' > [http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/Previous-versions-of-files-frequently-asked-questions Previous Versions] > '''Copy''' and then overwrite the copied versions into the newly reset profile folder.

As I've said, brand new iPod touch. I only synced it Friday night, put some music on it. This morning tried to connect to iTunes and got a message saying the pairing record was missing? Computer isn't recognising it either, but it charges off the computer just fine. Have tried everything including changing USB port, rebooting, uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes twice, literally everything I've found on forums. Anyone help me out here? I'm so annoyed I could nearly cry.
Anyone able to help with this?

Please help!!
You need to turn the phone off and leave it in dry rice for 3-5 days. Then, plug it in and charge it for about 15 minutes and then try to turn it on. If it doesn't work at that point, it will be time to get a new phone.

I can't figure out how to get this movie to play - I have another movie downloaded and I had no problems. Any tips?
Thanks for this mha007 - I can now open FF with a new profile. Can I copy my settings from the old profile or will this bring over the same problem, maybe a corrupt file. If it would bring the same problem, is there any way I can check which file is corrupt, apart from taking them over one by one?
