ITouch to MacBook to Ethernet to Internet

My macbook is connected to the internet via ethernet, I wish to connect my iTouch to the internet through my MacBook. How do I do this. The MacBook connects to the internet no problem, the iTouch connects to the MacBook no problem, problem is iTouch getting on to the internet through the MacBook. How do I do this

System Preferences>Sharing Check mark the box for "Internet Sharing". Be sure to turn on Wi-Fi in Settings on your iPod Touch, Turn on "Airport" in your menu bar. Works for me.

  • Ethernet cable internet access only No WiFi in hotel MBA user

    Am assuming I need to carry my own Airport Express with my MBA as I am in a hotel that has ethernet cable internet access only - no WIFI? If so, what do I need to know about how to get MBA and Airport Express to "talk" to each other in these types of hotel situations?
    Thanks for your assistance

    Hi Elegba,
    Curious... did you consider the USB Ethernet adapter for the MacBook Air? A whole lot cheaper of a solution for a hotel without WiFi. Not to mention, I've found (after initially struggling to justify the purchase) that I use mine more than I originally thought.
    However, to answer your question. You'll connect the Ethernet to the AirPort Express Base Station and configure it via the AirPort Utility on your MacBook Air. It's very straight-forward and you'll be creating a wireless network. You may need to first get setup with your 'in room' connection, though, I know most hotels have a proxy connection for web access. While you should still be able to setup the Express, it's just something to keep in mind.

  • Can I use Ethernet for Internet connection and Airport express for printer

    How / can I use Ethernet for Internet connection and use an airport express to set up wifi for printer and Apple TV?
    Macbook Pro. OS X 10.9.4

    I've never tried it, so I don't know what the results will be.
    However, you can move Ethernet to the top of the Services list in Network System Prefs which will cause it to be the Internet source. There is a command in the gear menu to set the Service order.  However, after thinking about it, if there isn't an internet connection via Wi-Fi, it might automatically drop down to the Ethernet connection.
    Then, you can set up your Wi-Fi so that it doesn't connect to the Internet, as Linc stated. How to do that would be dependent on the Router.

  • I installed my new iMac with my Macbook Pro 2008 backup and created a network with the iMac and now the Macbook Pro cannot get internet.

    I installed my new iMac with my Macbook Pro 2008 back up.  I created a iMac network with Airport extreme, but now my Macbook Pro cannot get internet.  any ideas on why or what to do about it.

    Hello 1BillyMac,
    It seems you have a network conflict that isn't allowing your MacBook Pro to connect to the internet. This may be caused by both computers sharing identical network settings. You may want to consider creating a new network location on your MacBook Pro to assign new network settings. The following article will instruct you on how to do that:
    OS X Yosemite: Add a network location
    A network location is a group of network settings
    A network location is a group of network settings for your various network services (Ethernet or Wi-Fi for example).
    If you often change network settings, you may find switching between locations quicker and easier than repeatedly modifying individual groups of settings. 
    For example, you might want to make a location for “home,” where you connect to the Internet with a telephone modem, and a location for “office,” where you connect to your company network and the Internet using Ethernet or AirPort. 
    Choose Apple menu > System Preferences, then click Network.
    Click the Location pop-up menu, choose Edit Locations, then click Add . 
    Enter a name for the location, then click Done.
    Enter settings for each network connection service you want to use in that location.
    After you create your locations, you can switch all of your network settings by clicking the Location pop-up menu and choosing a different location.
    Thank you for contributing to Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,

    Does anyone know how to connect my MacBook pro to the Internet through the 3G server on my iPhone?

  • How to access file server through ethernet BUT internet though wireless

    I'm looking for a way to to run my file server network through ethernet while internet access is provided though wireless, but don't want users to have to switch off the wireless when they want to access the file server.
    File server is set up at trade shows and the conventions charge a fortune for internet access for multiple users and even more ($6000) for a connection that I'm allowed to put a router on. So I'm considering running my apple router for the file server network without internet access and just having my staff get their internet access from the cheaper wireless access the convention center has throughout the building.
    Problem is that I need them to be able to access the file server and the internet at the same time without switching back-and-forth from either network.
    Any suggestions? File server and all clients are macs.

    Hi,
    Simply put(copy) the content of the UVIsoundbaks folder to where you want it. Then delete the original content. Make aliases of the content at its' new location, and move (copy) all those aliases back into the originating folders. Then delete the original aliases. That should do it.
    I'm confused about this.
    First, I put the content where I want. Got it.
    Then delete it?
    I don't have the room to put it where the application tells me to put it (not enough room on the HD), so I need to put the sample content on a external hard drive.
    Please advise.

  • My Macbook Pro 13" lost Internet connection last night. Why?

    My Macbook Pro 13" lost Internet connection last night. It's still out today, but my mother's Windows machine still gets it just fine. What happened to my Mac? The folks at Comcast told me it's a problem for Apple to fix. I'm hoping someone here can give me some insight.

    see if there is anything for you.

    Since downloading and installing Yosemite 10.10 on my MacBook Air, using the Internet via Safari on my Hevanet server has become a rather useless effort due to unreasonable slowness and frequent Gmail crashes when I actually do manage to get through to the Internet.

  • MacBook connected to the Internet but won't load

    I connected my MacBook Pro to the Internet, and I have the three wifi bars. However when I open Safari or Google Chrome it starts loading briefly but stops and then after a while says I'm not connected to the Internet even though it shows that I am.

    HI,
    In System Preferences > Network what does it say for the WiFi connection ?
    Does it say Connected with a Green Blob ?
    Does it list the Network/router name ?
    Does the Status say Connected ?
    If all these are True then go to System Preferences > Security and Privacy > Firewall tab
    In Here is the Firewall On ?
    If so then Unlock the padlock if required and go to the Options Button.
    IS it allowing Signed Software ?
    Is your Browser listed as an Allowed software item ?
