Itunes 8.2 disables Ethernet/Internet connection

In an effort to upgrade to iTunes 8.2 this morning, I d/l and installed without difficulty. However, afterward, my computer did not recognize my Ethernet and I could not connect to the internet. I restored my computer to an earlier restore point, which restored my Ethernet/internet connection and deleted iTunes 8.2. After some manipulation of files, I now have a working version of iTunes 8.0.2. This is so frustrating, b/c it has taken me several hours of research to get everything functioning as it was before installing the iTunes upgrade.
What do I have to do to get Itunes 8.2 to function on my computer without it disabling my internet access? Apparently without the upgrade to 8.2, I cannot download the software upgrade for my iPhone 3g.
Thanks for your help.

Its amazing, my previous post which was deleted by the powers that be, was solely related to the problem that alot of people are having. Namly Itunes disabling internet connection, because I was extreamly irrate about the whole this I accidentally put a swear word in the post.
How is it that the posts can be read to police against that but not to check on peoples problems and get them sorted.
Seriously apple get this problem sorted, I object to having to join this forum giving away my details so you can now email me, with alot of stuff that I don't even want. One thing I would like is for you to sort this problem out!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Hope that isn't too many exclamation marks, hope it doesn't offend anyone.
I am running XP, when I download Itunes it gets rid of my internet connection, thus making Itunes more useless than it already is.
We are waiting for an answer. As I said in the previous post, DO YOUR JOBS AND GIVE US AN ANSWER TO THIS PROBLEM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And for the Apple discussions staff, if you are reading this, how about a bit of customer service, stop hiding behind your standard signature block and sign your emails with a name. The personal touch would make people less inclined to lose their tempers.

ITunes disabling my internet connection..?

Hi.
Having "upgraded" to 7.4.3.1, iTunes now disables my internet connection whenever I try to upload a cd (after it's found the album artist and song titles). The internet still shows as "connected" but it won't work - no access to the Store or to any websites ("server not found").
Even if I close iTunes then try to disconnect and reconnect it does not work - the connection showing Error 0721. Only closing everything and restarting the computer enables reconnection.
I am using a Thomson Speedtouch 330 modem if that's any help.
Any advice would be most gratefully received - I'm halfway through uploading my cd collection and still have a hundred or so to go... If unresolvable this could be a deal-break stinger.
Cheers

I'm having this problem too when downloading podcasts. Have you found a solution?

Setting NAT to disabled breaks internet connection

Hello when i set NAT to disabled my internet connections does not work. Why is that? When NAT is disabled what attacks do i leave my self open to? My ultimate goal is to run three xboxes with open NAT setting, how do i do this? the details of my network are below.
Modem --> WRT610n
(everything is using statis IP)
my desktop is plugged into the router via ethernet cable
Wireless devices:
3 xboxes
2 Desktops
1 laptop
we are trying to get all three xboxs running with open NAT how do i do this?

Why would you disable NAT? NAT is required to allow systems with Private IP Addresses to access the internet. For instance, if your PC has an IP Address of 192.168.1.50 it needs NAT to convert this non routable private IP address into something that is routable on the internet. NAT is designed to allow multiple systems within the private IP space to access the internet. Also, for systems that are not acting as 24/7 "Servers" why use static IP addresses? DHCP, when set up properly, eliminates user error by automatically entering the necessary information to allow workstations and game consoles to access the internet. No offense, but if you don't understand NAT and private vs. public IP addressing, you probably shouldn't be entering information into a static IP address config screen...The XBOX saying you have "Moderate" or "Strict" NAT has nothing to do with DHCP vs. Static IP.
Open NAT should work correctly if UPNP is enabled on the router. If it doesn't, you can try opening the ports like the previous responder suggested but it shouldn't be neccessary.
The router does allow for ONE IP address on your internet network to act as a "DMZ Host" which will bypass NAT and give that device unfiltered internet access but you will not be able to have 3 DMZ host devices.

"Network disabled because Internet connection is slow"

I have both a Samsung Galaxy S3 and a new Samsung Tab 3. After a recent software upgrade, I was having connectivity issues to wireless routers. The message I got when connecting to a secure wireless network was "Network disabled because Internet connection is slow". I determined that I had no issues with either my phone or tablet on either an unsecure router (WiFi hotspot), or with any older router that broadcast WPA2 personal with either aes OR tkip security. I do have a problem with connecting to any new router that broadcasts BOTH aes and tkip at the same time. When I change the routers under my control to broadcast only aes or tkip, then I can immediately connect both my phone and tablet to the router. There are obviously a lot of routers over which I have no control, so this needs to be fixed. I am pretty sure that there is a problem with the latest Android software upgrade in this regard

I am having the same problem with my Galaxy 3S since the upgrade. Have searched for settings, etc. but haven't found anything I can control. My home network is getting 54.4 down and 5.7 up! Have had this issue nearly everywhere I am connected.
I think it needs a fix - noticed today that Verizon has doubled my DATA for free. May need it if this continues.

How can I connect my i pad to a hard wired ethernet internet connection?

Can I connect my i pad to a hard wired ethernet internet connection?

No you can't. You can use Internet sharing with your computer making the computer the WiFi hotspot for the iPad, but you cannot connect the iPad to an Ethernet cable.

I had the same problem and it was because of my firewall settings, which I had set to block all activity and forgot to reset it.

Google search does not work. It does not bring back any results and disables my internet connection until I close the brower, wait, and then open it again.

No Ethernet/Internet Connection on Parallels 7 Running Snow Leopard Server - Fix?

I have recently installed Parallels 7 on my 2013 iMac, and have both Snow Leopard Server and Windows 7 running great on the Parallels platform.
However, after installing some anti-virus software, "ClamXav" and "MacScan", I need to have the internet connected to my Paralells 7 so I can receive viral updates to both these programs. I am unable to get any ethernet/internet connection on my Paralells 7 running Snow Leopard Server.
I have tried to update the Paralells 7 Snow Leopard Server "network Info" (in SL systems preferences" ... as the same ethernet connection info that I have running my "network connection" on my main OS Mountain Lion, but still no ethernet connection in Paralells 7.
This is a screen grab of the locations where I believe I am able to update my "ethernet" info for Paralells 7 Snow Leopard:
Obviously, I've blurred out the current info in these two windows, for security purposes, but exactly what should be applied to these windows to get my "ethernet" connection in Paralells 7 up and running?
I would think entering the exact same "network info" as appears in my Mountain Lion "Systems Preferences - Network" window, would get me internet connected on Paralells 7 Snow Leopard? Evidently not ... what is needed for me to get this right?
Anyone have experience getting "ethernet/internet" connected on Snow Leopard Server, using Paralells 7?

Since I have been directed to: "NOT waste everyones time on this discussion" the only thing more I am going to do after this post is click on: "Stop email notifications" and never return to this thread again!
Internet access through Ethernet in Snow Leopard Server installed into Parallels 8 on 2011 Mac Mini in Lion:"
I simply don't want to purchase and have to install Parallels 8 .... Parallels 7 should work fine on connecting to the Internet. Also, I was asking about the internet connection issue with the new 2013 iMac (running Mountain Lion 10.8.3 runiing Parallels 7), not a 2011 Mini Mac running Lion with Parallels 8.

ITunes won't recognise my Internet connection

iTunes refuses to recognise my internet connection so won't let me download the latest Ipod updater.
I have run the diagnostics and it says to enable a network connection through "My Computer" but these are already enabled.
Any ideas?

I tried signing in on another account and I was able to restore my iPod. But now it keeps saying that iTunes is detecting an iPod in recovery mode, and that I need to restore it. ? I just did! It's an endless cycle.
Now my iPod won't even take me to the main screen. It just says "OK to disconnect" and "Do not disconnect"

Itunes, burn disc then lose internet connection

changed pc few weeks ago, so downloaded new version itunes. If we play music using itunes as the player then we can remain connected to the internet, but if we try to burn a disc(no probs doing that) the internet connection goes and we can't access any site. Only way around we have found is to restart pc. Any suggestions?thanks lots

I'm having the same exact problem. I know it's not a hardware issue (interrupt conflict) because I can burn DVD's on the same drive and I don't lose my internet connection. It's only when I burn a CD using iTunes that I lose my internet connection. I am using a wireless internet connection with an external antennae that is plugged into a USB port. After burning the CD I have to unplug the antennae from the USB port for a few seconds then plug it back in and my internet connection will start working again. It's better than having to completely reboot but it's still a PITA. Anyone have any ideas?

Enabling 'Internet Sharing' disables my internet connection

Hi all, my desktop computer (iMac 27") is hooked up to the internet via ethernet cable/modem. Very simple configuration. I normally share the internet connection (password protected) that my other devices access via wifi.
For months this has been working just fine. today I've been having connectivity issues. I worked with my cable company to determine the issue. what finally solved it was disabling wifi, shutting down the modem & computer. Then boot the modem, afterwards boot the computer.
This worked great, I saw everything working in Network Diagnostics...
Then, I re-enabled Internet Sharing, with the same settings I've used for months, and I saw the connection disappear immediately in Network Diagnostics (Ethernet & Network Settings were green, all else red).
Rebooting the router didn't work. Restarting the computer with with wifi enabled didn't work. I had to disable wifi, turn off everything, boot modem, boot computer to get it to work again. Any time afterwards, where I enabled Internet Sharing the connection would break again.
Please help! Thanks!

I guess he meant to give this link :

Also setup DNS in the server and use that for LAN clients or you probably will have to change firewall settings to allow the use of a public DNS to-from LAN.

How can I turn iTunes Match off without an internet connection?

Hi all. I find myself up s**t creek without a paddle. I have subscribed to iTunes Match, which I find to be an excellent service. However, I'm travelling (by ship) and don't have an internet connection for the forseeable future. I recently, prior to departing on my voyage, scrubbed my phone and ipad for extra space, so I deleted all of my music content, knowing my music would be with me on my laptop. However, now I want to walk around the ship and listen to my music, which I assumed I would be able to sync with my laptop. Unfortunately, I can't find any iTunes or iPhone options to sync any music because it says iTunes Match is enabled. There are no options to disable iTunes Match either. I'm using the latest version of iOS (5.1) on an iPhone 4S purchased in Japan, as well as the most recent (as of 4/1/2012) version of iTunes on my Macbook Pro running OS X Lion.
Thanks for any help someone might offer.
Rich Perry

I was recently able to connect my iPhone to a Wi-Fi network connected to the internet. Only then did the option show up in the Settings app. I'm not sure if that's by design or if it's a bug, but it's terribly inconvenient just at the moment I need to access the feature. If it's by design, it's a poor design compared to most other aspects of iOS.
