Internet works, but I have an exclamation mark instead of AirPort connection and cannot connect to my WiFi.. PLEASE HELP!

Internet works, but I have an exclamation mark instead of AirPort connection and cannot connect to my WiFi.. PLEASE HELP!

When you see an exclamation point in the Wi-Fi menu, from the menu bar, select
 ▹ System Preferences... ▹ Network
Click the Assist me button and select Assistant. Follow the prompts. You may get a warning that Wi-Fi is not available, that you're too far from the base station, or that you're using the wrong password.
Assuming that you've ruled out those possibilities, restart the computer and try again. If there's no change, click the lock icon in the lower left corner of the preference pane and authenticate, if necessary. From the Location menu at the top of the window, select Edit Locations. A sheet will drop down. Click the plus-sign button to create a new location. Give it any name you want. In the new location, set up the Wi-Fi service with the same settings you used before. Click  Applyand test.
If there's still no connection, and if you have control of the router, compare its settings to Apple's recommendations. Some third-party routers may be incompatible in 802.11b/g/n radio mode. Try setting the mode to 802.11n only.

    Where are you and where did you get the phone? All iPhones come with a 1 year warranty from the original date of sale.
    Make an appointment at the genius bar of your local Apple Store and take it in for them to have a look at.

    Since an iPhone 3G cannot be updated past iOS 4.2.1...the end of the line for that model iPhone...you can't do what you want, so there's nothing to be fearful of.

  • I have AirPort Extreme and cannot connect to the internet with a land line but the WiFi works

    I have an AirPort Extreme and have been using for several months successfully, but as of two weeks ago, the line that I have hooked up to my desktop no longer provides internet service, but the WiFi works fine for the I-Pad and I-Pod.
    I have checked with my service provider and my modem works successfully hooked up the the AirPort extreme or directly to the PC.  When I am hooked in from the modem directly to my PC, I have internet for my desktop, but of course no WiFi.
    If I connect the Modem to the Router and the router to my desktop, I have WiFi, but no internet service to my desktop.
    I have replaced the network cable but to no avail.
    Any suggestions?

    It appears that there may be something amiss with the Ethernet switch that is built-in the 802.11n AirPort Extreme Base Station (AEBSn) or its configuration settings may be incorrect. I assume that you also tried using the other LAN ports on the AEBSn and the outcome was the same ... no Internet access via a wired connection.
    One thing to try is to change the Ethernet adapter settings on the PC. It is possible that its current settings may be appropriate when connected directly to the Internet modem, but may be off for connecting to the AEBSn. If your PC's Ethernet adapter has options to control Speed, Duplex, & MTU, I would change these to the following respectively: 1000 Mbps, Full duplex, & 1500

  • External HD won't work and cannot repair or erase? please help!!

    Hello, I brought a 1 TB WD external hard drive and formatted it to use with both my mac and windows. At first it was working perfectly but after around 1-2 weeks it suddenly stopped. Now it doesn't show up on a mac or windows. I can see it on my disk utility (mac) but when I try to repair it it says repair failed and when I tried to erase it to start again it said  'disk erase failed with the error: POSIX reports:the operation couldn't be completed input/output error' please say in just being an idiot and it can be resolved easily. Thank you in advance for any help given :)

    only 2 possibilities, your HD is dead/ corrupt
    OR you have a very common failure called a SATA bridge card failure.
    read all about same here:
    Your dead external hard drive is likely fine! Great hope for your 'faulty' external HD
    sounds like you have  SATA card failure , read above link

  • Hi, All my music files have an exclamation mark on the left and when I tunes asks me to locate a window opens with I Tunes folders but I still cant see my music library . What can i do? Thanks

    Hi, All my music files have an exclamation mark on the left and when I tunes asks me to locate a window opens with I Tunes folders but I still cant see my music library . What can i do? Thanks

    The red exclamation mark indicates that itunes cannot find your files.
    Are the music files still on your harddrive. Look n Finder
    Username/Music/iTunes/iTunes Media
    If the files are there then keep the option key pressed and open iTunes. A dialog box will open asking you to choose your library. Select Choose and then navigate to the Music/iTunes Folder and click OK

  • IPhoto '09 - Thumbnails visible but no photos!  (exclamation mark)

    Hi everyone,
    I'm in a bit of pickle here and I hope someone can help me. I take photos pretty regularly. Nothing mind-blowing, but I use my iPhone to take pics of my dogs, my girlfriend, etc. I sync my phone pretty much everyday and I just realised today that I'm missing a bunch of photos that span over 4-5 months. The thumbnail for the album itself is BLANK, but when I go into the album all the thumbnails for the photos are still there. However, when I try to maximise the photo I get nothing but a big grey exclamation mark.
    I have tried different things like 'Open in Finder' and expanding the iPhoto app to show the folders inside and then try to find the photos myself, but nothing seems to work. I have also tried rebuilding my library with no success. I checked my recent Time Machine save, but somehow the iPhoto backup shows the same events in my iPhoto having issues. I don't understand how this could have happened, because I upload and sync my iPhone so often that I should've noticed at one point over the last month that my photos were missing - I have trouble believing I could've missed these missing events over the last month every single time I synced. But my last save shows the same thing and I don't understand how this is possible. I'm stupid for not having backed up my photo collection another way, but I thought I was being pretty careful.
    Is there a bug that can cause this? What else can I do to get my photos back? or am I simply S.O.L.? I have read about many horror stories about iPhoto 09 but nothing that covers my situation closely enough to help me.
    Any help would be appreciated. I apologise if I wasn't clear or if I didn't give you enough details.
    Thanks in advance for any help!

    I have what I thought was a similar problem, only now I'm not so sure. It seems instead to be linked to the faces feature.
    I recently migrated from a macbook to a macbook pro. However my 30K pictures are contained not on the computer but on a separate external HD. I plugged the HD into the new iphoto '09 and get all the thumbnails. However when I click on one the screen goes dark: no photo. I read this thread but before rebuilding anything, since the photos wouldn't have really been affected by migration assistant, I don't think, I decided to just quit iphoto and see if things fixed themselves this way. When I reopened iphoto indeed the pictures do load at first, but then after faces starts scanning it stops bringing up any photos.
    So.... it takes a very long time to scan 30K faces but when it finally does, I get instructions to click on a photo, then on faces and start identifying photos. I can't get that far because, again, when I click on a photo the faces feature does highlight, only I can't see the photo.
    ¿ Does it really make sense to rebuild the library under these circumstances? I don't see how it can have been affected by the migration.
    ¿ Any ideas how to get faces to stop disabling access to the full photos, if that's what's happening?
    Many, many thanks for your thoughts....
    p.s. The old library was set up for iphoto '07 (or whatever came before iphoto '09) and upon trying to open up in iphoto '09 I was prompted to tweak the library for the new software ... I wonder if that could have resulted in a need to rebuild?
    TIA!!

  • As previously asked question of lost music I noticed that I have a exclamation mark in front of them when I click on them, not an astrick as I said before, does anabody know what this means?

    As I  previously asked about loss of my music, showing in my library, but not there; I have an exclamation mark after the check and when I click on it it says if I want to locate it. When I click on it it opens a file of lists of itunes files with diferent dates. I have gone through all and found nothing and now when I open itunes it says it is a previous library.  What the heck is going on and why can't they make this simple?

  • Internet working but can't access AirPort for configuration changes

    I have an AirPort Express and it connects to the internet properly through my cable modem -- solid green light and all -- and allows my PC to surf wirelessly.
    Sounds pretty good, but...
    For some reason I can't access the AirPort Express to change any of the settings. For example, I would like to change the SSID and the IP numbering scheme to give out 192 IPs, but when I open the Admin Utility I can't see the AirPort Express. When I try to access it manually in the utility by hitting "Other..." and entering the IP that my PC is assigned on the network (10.0.1.2), it puts up a window that says "Reading configuration from base station", then an error message with code -6753.
    I know it is working, otherwise I wouldn't be writing this right now, but how to I access it???
    Thanks in advance for someone helping me out.

    journey778, Welcome to the discussion area!
    Your system information states OS 10.0.x. If you are using that version of OS X you do not have an Intel based iMac. I would suggest that you upgrade to OS 10.2 at least.
    If you do have an Intel based iMac, you may want to try renewing the DHCP lease. Open System Preferences->Ethernet->Advanced... and click on the "Renew DHCP Lease".

  • I upgrade my iPhone 4 to iOS 6 and if I'm close to my router the signal indicator comes on and the phone connects to the wifi just fine, but if I step away from the router my phone does not have signal and cannot connect to Internet

    i upgrade my iPhone 4 to iOS 6 and if I'm close to my router the signal indicator comes on and the phone connects to the wifi just fine, but if I step away from the router my phone does not have signal and cannot connect to Internet 

    I can use my iPhone only with wifi .

  • My phone will randomly disconnect from the wifi and when I retype the password it says it is wrong. It will eventually work but I have to wait for a message to pop up on my screen to allow me to retype the wifi password.

    When I first got my phone it worked perfectly fine with the wifi. Although later on I began to have problems connecting it. It will randomly disconnect from the wifi and when I try to retype the password it tells me it is wrong, although it is right. It will eventually work but in its own time, a message will pop up and allow me to type in the password and it will work. But sometimes it takes an hour or more and sometime it takes 10 minutes. I've seen where other people have had this problem but I don't know how to fix it. I'm not sure if it's an issue with my phone or if it's with my wifi. Does anyone know how to fix this?

    Does this happen with all Wi-Fi hotspots?  A specific one?
    Have you tried forgetting the Wi-Fi connection and then reconnecting to it?
    What about power cycling the Wi-Fi router?
