Internet Setup on MacBook

Hi ,
I had a query regarding the Airport Base Station whether i need it or not .
The macbook comes equipped with airport internal card .
Now to connect to the internet , following is my query
1)If i am piggybacking on my friends network (whose all configuration is windows)would i be able to connect to the network right out of my box ????
2)Under what conditions the airport base station has to be purchased or is it mandatory if you are getting a new internet connection at your home .

I can't play certain videos from the internet on my macbook

I can't play certain videos from the internet on my macbook.
When using Sarfari or Google Chome, I am unable to play some videos on the internet. News clips, posted videos on blogs, and tv episodes from their own network websites. Youtube videos are fine. I doesn't make sense.
I tried downloading an update for quicktime, but the computer claims that quicktime is up to date. Yet, the videos and tv episodes don't play.
I have checked for the most recent software updates, and everything is up to date. Nothing is wrong with the hardware either.
Any suggestions would be awesome! Thank you!

In addition to Flash, you might need some other plugins. Microsoft videos are mostly in Silverlight, and you'll want Flip4Mac to play WMVs. Perian contains codecs for pretty much every video online.

Internet on my MacBook Pro, via my iPhone 3G ? what's the best app ?

Hello you all,
I live in the middle of nowhere in Argentina. I have an iPhone 4S plus 3G contract with Movistar-Telefonica, and a MacBook Pro under Lion.
In your experience what would be the best app to get internet on my MacBook Pro via my iPhone 4S ?
And in that case where can I get the operation manual ? :-)
Best results with ? Airport Express Base station ? Bluetooth ? what else ?
Many thanks for your help !!!

There is no separate app, necessary or possible. If your carrier offers a tethering plan, the iPhone will support it directly. See:

If your carrier does not offer such a plan, then no app can change that.

I use the same password for internet for my macbook and my imac but the imac says that it is wrong. Has anyone had this problem and do you know how to fix it?

I have no problem getting on the internet on my macbook but when I try the same network with the same password on my imac it says that the password is invalid. We have tried resetting the router. Resetting the PRAM, resetting the network to default settings. It happened yesterday and I haven't been able to figure anything out. Please help.

Try resetting your login keychain in keychain access. sounds like a keychain issue to me

(Im using wireless network and the router is a D-link) I have tryed to use cable but it doesent work at all. All the adder laptops in the house have internet, but not my macbook. and my iphone has the exact same problem, it is connected to the wireless network, but when I try to open a website I get a box thats says that I dont have any internet. I have tryed to turn my computer off and on (it used to work before) but now it does not work when i do it. I have also tried to restart the entire network in the house, but it does not work either.
what can I do to get it working again? (the internet on my macbook).

problem solved. I bought a new router (D-link) and now everything works as it should do. but thanks for the help anyway.

The message you are quoting says to contact iTunes Support, not this user-to-user discussion forum.
But anyway, see this document on how to find the credit card security code:

Ou telecharger internet explorer pour macbook pro os x yosetime version 10.10.1

ou puis telecharger internet explorer pour macbook pro os x yosetime version 10.10.1
merci d'avance

Il n'y a aucune version d'Internet Explorer pour Mac, et n'a pas été pendant de nombreuses années. Votre seule option serait de courir dans Boot Camp ou sous émulation dans un programme tel que 'Parallels'. Il peut être possible de l'exécuter dans 'CrossOver Mac', mais il ne fonctionnera pas très bien.

I recently bought an Airport Express and connected it to my TimeWarner modem. Am able to surf the internet using my MacBook Air, iPad, and Apple TV, but the AirPort Express has a blinking amber light. How could I change it to a green light?

Create the internet network from MacBook Pro (Aircard) to iPhone and iPad

I would like to create the internet network from MacBook Pro (that used Aircard) to iPhone and iPad. I already turned on the internet sharing, but could not create the internet network. Please let me know how to solve this problem.

Couldn't you attach your iPhone to your computer and upload and add your iPhone Contacts to your iTunes Contacts and then sync the iPhone? Add one unique contact and calendar entry to your computer. You should then get the option to merge.

How do I setup my MacBook Pro (2009) as a wireless access point for all my wireless device to access the Internet using a USB wireless adapter?

I connect to the Internet with a USB Super Antenna from CCrane.
I want to establish a network on my Mac to allow my other wireless devices to use the USB connection at the USB.
Any ideas?

Yes, that would work, however it would cost me $2000 for the monitors.

Sharing internet connection from MacBook Pro to iMac G3

My goal here is to connect my iMac G3 (that I just got) to my cable internet connection. However, there are some hurdles in doing so. On the other side of my house lies my modem. It's connected to a D-Link wireless router to give my PC, Xbox 360, Wii and MacBook Pro internet all at the same time. It's too far to drag an ethernet cable, and the iMac G3 doesn't have an AirPort card (and $99 for a used wireless b adapter is ridiculous).
From what I've gathered online, OS X can share it's internet connection with another Mac via FireWire, ethernet or AirPort. AirPort is out of the question since that's how my MacBook Pro connects to the net, and since the iMac G3 doesn't have an AirPort card. I don't have anything that uses FireWire, so othe port on both machines is free, but I also don't have a cable to connect the two. I do, however, have a few spare ethernet cables, so I'd like to get this setup using them.
Thing is, I can't get it to work. Simply enabling internet sharing in System Preferences does diddly squat, and no connection is found with Network Utility on the iMac. What I'd really like here is for someone to either instruct me on how to get this to work, or point me in the direction of such an article. I haven't been able to find anything with Google so far...
Now, my MacBook Pro obvioously runs 10.4.9 with all the updates. The iMac G3, however, is running 10.3.5 at the moment. While I will be upgrading it to tiger in the near future, I kinda wanted to play around with Internet Expplorer before doing so. Being new to the Mac and all (the MBP is my first Mac), I've never used Internet Exporer on the Mac -- or 10.3 at all really, for that matter. So if it can be done, I'd like to do this with 10.3 still on the iMac, though I could upgrade it to tiger if I HAD to.
Should it matter, the iMac G3 is a 400MHz indigo unit with 256MB RAM and a 10GB HDD. It's the summer '00 model. The MacBook Pro is a revision A system with a 1.83GHz Core Duo inside. More detailed specs can be found within my profile on here, I believe.
Sorry for such a long winded post...
1.83GHz MacBook Pro 15"; 400MHz iMac G3 Indigo Mac OS X (10.4.9)

I don't have anything that uses FireWire, so othe port on both machines is free, but I also don't have a cable to connect the two. I do, however, have a few spare ethernet cables, so I'd like to get this setup using them.
Lost me there... is it Ethernet cables you're using even though it's too far? Or What?
Should be no problem Sharing the Internet connection from 101.4.9 to 10.3.x.
Just waiting for more info or clarity.
