How is it possible that when I do have a Wifi connection, I cannot connect to Safari or Google Chrome or anything else internet-related?

How is it possible that when I do have a Wifi connection, I cannot connect to Safari or Google Chrome or anything else internet-related? Sometimes it does all work, but after a while Wifi is still there and I am not able to go to any website whatsoever.

Your network preferences file may be damaged, that would explain why you can configure the computer and get online but then when the computer wakes from sleep and needs to restore the setting it cannot.
Open the Library folder of your computer (not the Library in your user directory) and then find the Preferences folder. Now the problem for me is that I've not used Leopard forever so I'm not sure exactly where the file you want is or what it is called. In Mountain Lion it is called:
com.apple.airport.preferences.plist
and it is inside a folder called SystemConfiguration. But I can't remember if this has changed along the way or not. The easy thing to do is to go back to the Network Preferences pane again and make the change I directed above. Then you can look in the Preferences folder and sort by date modified to find the network preferences file that was just now modified. Move it to the desktop, restart your computer, reconfigure the WiFi again and see what happens.

Your only option is to sell the iPad and then buy the new one.

My mac mini keeps dropping wifi connectivity

Hi Folks,
My new Mini keeps dropping wifi connectivity so I lose the connection to Apple TV and even just browsing on Safari seems painful hoping a page will load before losing connectivity. I reset my router, restart the mini and it intermittently keeps happening. Has anyone come up with a workable solution?
Thanks

Hi Leo, this has worked for a few...
Though all of these steps may or may not be needed, I'm including them all.
Make a New Location, Using network locations in Mac OS X ...
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2712
10.5, 10.6, 10.7 & 10.8…
System Preferences>Network, top of window>Locations>Edit Locations, little plus icon, give it a name.
10.5.x/10.6.x/10.7.x/10.8.x instructions...
System Preferences>Network, click on the little gear at the bottom next to the + & - icons, (unlock lock first if locked), choose Set Service Order.
The interface that connects to the Internet should be dragged to the top of the list.
If using Wifi/Airport...
Instead of joining your Network from the list, click the WiFi icon at the top, and click join other network. Fill in everything as needed.
For 10.5/10.6/10.7/10.8, System Preferences>Network, unlock the lock if need be, highlight the Interface you use to connect to Internet, click on the advanced button, click on the DNS tab, click on the little plus icon, then add these numbers...
208.67.222.222
208.67.220.220
(There may be better or faster DNS numbers in your area, but these should be a good test).
Click OK.

Is it possible to make a call thru a wifi connection?( ie. no cell signal is available)

I've long wanted to switch to the Iphone but I sometimes need to go to some locations where AT&T nor verizon nor sprint have cell signals and the only way to make a call is by tethering to the wifi connection. This is possible with my tmobile phone but havent succeeded when trying to use an iphone. Is there a way to make this work?

You need a special phone which allows wifi calling.
The iPhone does not have this option.
You can get a micro-cell device, which plugs into your network internet and is basically a mini cell phone tower. It will work with regular cell phones (includiing iPhone).

My Mac desktop has intermittent Wifi connectivity

I've had a problem with wifi connectivity for over a year now, and have had the desktop repaired once already, with no improvement. Upgrade to Mavericks has made no difference.
The computer always thinks that I have a connection to my network. In system preferences it says 'connected' but I don't actually have a connection to the internet, for example. Streaming to the Apple TV stops, or the website stops loading.
However when I go to Network Preferences and click 'assist me' then I don't have all 6 lights in green, but maybe 2-3 green and the rest yellow. I go through the reconnection, get 6 green lights, and all is back to normal.
I have many, many other things connected to this wifi network (1 desktop, 2 laptops, 2 phones, 2 ipads, 1 apple TV, one speaker) and everything else has no problems, so it is clearly not the network.
Any tips, short of throwing the desktop away and buying a new one? My nearest Apple Store is in Paris (I live in Brussels) so no Genius bar for me. Plus no car.

Thanks, but as it's an intermittent problem, and only my desktop is having it - everything else doesn't disconnect, it's more likely a problem with the computer than the network itself. Everything is up to date.
However this morning I noted that the Time Capsule thought it was in the UK (which doesn't cause a problem to anyone else, but I fixed it) and I also switched on the 5GHZ network option and connected to that.
Wireless Diagnostics is monitoring my wifi connection. I wonder if anyone knows how to interpret the logs it produces when/if my connection fails?

Is it possible to post pix from camera with WiFi connection, but no comp? (travelling light!)

I just set up my wireless services on my camera. I will be travelling out of the country and will not have my laptop with me, but will have WiFi access. Is it still possible to post pictures wirelessly to online platfroms such as Facebook?

struong,
A computer is required as far as setting up Web Services and registering them to your camera. However, once that is done, you can send image directly to those services as long as your camera is connected to an access point that has internet access. To do this:
Access the Wi-Fi menu on the camera.
Select a registered Web Service, like Facebook or Twitter.
Connect to an access point.
Once connected, the image transfer screen will be displayed.

I have an iPad w/ 3G. It is possible to *just* use it with the WiFi connection?

Can I turn off the 3G service and just have it connect via WiFi? I'm always around a wifi connection and it seems silly to have to pay for 3G service when I don't need it.
I know on iPads with wifi there is the option to purchase 3G. With the 3G is there the ability to just have wifi?

sure just select settings and enter your router password!
enjoy

WiFi Connections thru another Mac

I apologize in advance if this is a very simplistic question. I have a 6 node home network, all wired with CAT5 for 4 mac's and 2 windows PCs. I discovered recently that my Mac Mini has a wifi antenna built in and I can now have some of my laptops connect to the network thru wifi, and I do this as well with my iphone 3G. No worries.
But consider my network topology for a second. Everything is wired, except that wifi is made possible with my Mac Mini, which is also wired to my network but has its own wifi service for other devices. So here's the question. When I try to sync iphone apps with my MacPro thru wifi, they don't see each other (I'm talking specifically about two iphone apps that sync to Mac apps, 1Password and MacFamilyTree). Is this because the wifi is only connected to the Mac Mini, and doesn't let wifi connected devices see my Mac Pro? Do I have a network config problem or am I thinking about this wrong?
Any advise is really appreciated!
Thanks
Jmac

apple2be,
I too have a wired network in my home. Usually, I leave the Airport off, but curiosity got the better of me and I had to try to recreate your situation. My network lives in the 10.1.1.x IP range. I enabled Airport on one of my machines and set it to share the internet connection from ethernet to Airport (mimicking your Mac Mini). I then enabled Airport on a second machine (representing the iPhone) and connected to the Airport network created by the first machine. I looked at the IP address of the Airport connection on the second machine and found it to be in the 10.1.2.x range. As I suspected, the Mac Mini is acting as a router/wireless access point and is performing NAT between the 10.1.1.x and 10.1.2.x networks. Your iPhone can probably see your MacPro, but your MacPro cannot likely see your iPhone in much the same way that a computer from the internet (hopefully) cannot see past your router (firewall) into your home network.
You may want to try using your MacPro as the wireless access point instead of the Mac Mini. The iPhone may be able to sync to the Pro in this situation, however, I fear you'll run in to much the same problem.
Good luck and please let us know how this works out for you. I'm very interested for curiosity's sake...

HT5219 I would like to use my iMac 7,1 as a monitor for my Mac mini 2012. Is that possible and if yes, what type of cable connection do I need? Thank you.

No. Your iMac only has DVI video connection. You would need an iMac with Thunderbolt.

Is it possible that after 3 years my Mac computer damaged the port to my camera? I have not always disconnect it properly using eject before disconnecting. I have 2 cameras that are Sony CyberShot and they both shut down when I connect to the computer.

Is it possible that after 3 years my MacBook has damaged the port on my camera? I thought I had a battery problem with both my Sony CyberShot cameras (they are they same age). I had trouble getting the cameras to come on but then when it did come on after charging repeatedly, it turned off when I connected it to the computer to download pictures. I ordered 2 new batteries and the camera came on but went off immediately when I connected it to the computer. After that, the camera would not come back on. Help please!

John, thanks for the email so quickly.
I too hope I haven't tried "everything" either but I am reasonably technical. I had done what you suggested to do before but I did both again.
Ethernet is yellow in the left side bar. In the right pane it's status says Connected but then below it says "Ethernet has a self-assigned IP address and will not be able to connect to the Internet."
I have tried the assist me menu and Network Status has Ethernet Green, Network settings Yellow, ISP Green, and Internet and Server Red and Failed for both. I have turned things off and on, checked cables, deleted all locations and tried restting them up but to no avail. I even disconnected everything and connected the mac directly into the cable modem itself and the thing still will not connect.
Thoughts???

Any OS version of 10.8.4 or later has all features that are not OS depended. The plugins are one example. You probably haven't updated all versions of Logic Pro X to the latest one.

I see "imac-54f9d5" under the "Shared" heading in my finder. I am not connected to any printers or other Mac devices. Is it possible that someone is remotely accessing my system? How can I figure out what this is?

is it your imac?
is it your your router's name?
are you by any chance connected to another wifi router then your own because the other one was open and not password protected?

I am suddenly unable to receive calls on my iPhone 4S. Is it possible that the age of the phone will affect its ability to receive calls? HELP!

I am suddenly unable to receive calls on my iPhone 4S.
I have spent 2 hour-long sessions with technical support and although they were very nice, it is still not fixed.
When I try to call the phone from a land line, it doesn't ring AND it doesn't recognize that a call is coming in (no missed call) BUT if I leave a message, it records it.
Is it possible that the age of the phone will affect its ability to receive calls?
HELP!

MarketingMary,
I am truly sorry to hear that your are unable to receive calls on your device. Thank you tbo27 for providing great troubleshooting steps. Making sure call forwarding is not active by dial *73 is great. Have you already reset network settings also? http://vz.to/RTz70g Are you able to make calls fine? Make sure Do not Disturb is not active. Settings>Do Not Disturb
