Lost internet access

I have lost the internet access strip from my startup page--no address box, no google box, no
buttons. What do I do?

It sounds to me like have hidden the Toolbar.
If it is available in the View menu, click on View > Show Toolbar.
Note that the keyboard shortcut to show/hide the Toolbar is Command-Shift-\ . (It's listed in the menu as Command-| , but at least on a U.S. keyboard that requires typing Shift and the backslash key. ) It's not too difficult to accidentally type that shortcut and hide the Toolbar without realizing it.

Lost internet access after 10.10.2 update

Since the OSX 10.10.2 update my iMac (late 2008) can't access the internet anymore.
This is what happend:
Due to the incorrect installation of the OSX 10.10.2 update I had to reinstall OSX from the recovery disk. The installation went smoothly and OSX 10.10.2 is now installed.
The Problem:
The system can't connect to the internet anymore. From my Wi-Fi router (Fritzbox) the iMac gets an IP address and it is also possible to access the routers GUI via web browser by entering the router IP. If i enter a www. address in my web browser (Firefox) i'm getting the message "no internet access". The same thing happens with other browsers or programs which want access on the Internet. But My MacBook and Windows PC can easily access on the internet, so i can exclude a problem with the router or modem.
Here's what I've tried, without success:
- Disabled OSX firewall
- Little Snitch deactivated
- Disabled Avira Antivirus
- Enter the IP address instead of www in your web browser
- Hosts file in /private/etc deleted
- Restarted the router, modem and iMac
- Go through OSX Network Diagnostics
- Reinstalled OSX 10.10.2 i
- Little Snitch completely uninstalled
- Connected the iMac directly to the router via LAN cable
- Various alternative DNS server (Google, openDNS)
- The DNS cache emptied via terminal command
- deleted all preference files in Macintosh HD/Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration containing "wifi", "network", "nat", "preferences" and "airport"
All of these things didn't help at all and no web browser or other program is able to access the internet. Any ideas what to do further?

Internet – can’t connect - Yosemite
Internet – can’t connect - Yosemite (2)
Try running the combo update.

Must Restart Frequently in Order to Regain Lost Internet Access

Ever since upgrading my iPhone 4 to 4.1, I'm frequently having to restart the iPhone, because of the inability to connect to the Internet (even though "Cellular Data" is definitely turned on). This is getting to be frustrating. Is anyone else having this problem?

When I try to download and install Flash Player, Shockwave Player downloads and installs instead.
Flash Player installs from http://get.adobe.com/flashplayer/
Shockwave Player installs from http://get.adobe.com/shockwave/
If you don't use Shockwave Player, uninstall it.

After upgrade to 10.8.1, Internet access stops after approx. 50MB of traffic.

I upgraded to Mountain Lion, and when I started upgrading OS components and other apps, downloads would stop after about 50MB. Once this happens, all requests in internet browsers also lost internet access. If I turn Airport off and then on again, I can access the internet but the same problem occurs again once I continue other downloads.
I have other computers and they don't suffer from this problem, so I know if is not my internet provider or my wireless network.
Any ideas?

Me too! I'm also getting display problems in emails where scrambled graphics are overlaid interactive parts of emails like dates telephone numbers!

ITunes 10.1.2 upgrade on Win XP Pro SP3 Kills Internet access

The latest iTunes 10.1.2 install on my Win XP Pro SP3 system kills my Internet access. Internet status shows that I'm connected but Internet Explorer and Firefox can't connect to the server. Running Win XP Pro SP3 with all MS updates applied on a Dual-Core Intel 6600 chip, 4 gig of memory and a couple of terabytes of hard drive. When I do a restore from my backup hard drive to the prior OS and iTunes version, everything is back to normal. I didn't receive any error notifications both times from the install. I first did the install from the Apple website directly (and lost Internet access), then restored my backup system and downloaded the update separately and then installed and lost Internet access again. Am now back up using iTunes 10.1.1.4. Is this update from Egypt? (supposed to be funny).
Thanks-
Richard

Thanks for the link. I noticed that "Swut" from Orange County, Ca (see the post below) had a reply in the link you gave me referring to "Vipre" , which is an Anti-Virus program that I also use, like "Swut".
I will investigate this further. In defense of Apple, there is no way that they can test against every bit of software that we run on these PCs. I would hope that if we find out that there is some problem with the Vipre interface, both Apple and the Vipre people will be made aware of the problem.
Before I try the iTunes 10.2.1 upgrade again, I'll contact Sunbelt Software- the people who make Vipre and see if they have heard of this problem. I'll let all of you know what the results are.
Thanks- Richard Van Nostrand

I didn't have to go all the way through with TRG10987s solution. When I got to step 4 I noticed that VIPRE had installed multiple virtual network adapters on to of the network adapters. I uninstalled VIPRE thereby deleting the virtual adapters ran the upgrade, and reinstalled VIPRE. Everything works fine now.

Trying other apps like safari after the failure i don't have also internet access. After turninmg off & on afain wifi from iPad's settings everything returns to normal state.

Deselected arts sound...lost kmixer,internet access

Lost internet and k-mixer when de-selecting arts sound.
Please advise steps to restore internet access.
Don't know the connection between the two!!

I do not know how to modprobe my ethernet in....
If one has kde, one can select arts control center from kde in kde multimedia.
If such is selected, a window appears which has options for arts the first one of them has a box which permits arts to be selected for use or deselected.
When I deselected arts and returned to desktop, I had no kde mixer and subsequently discovered no internet either.
Kde mixer is an option in the arts control center window on a mixer tab but it wasn't disturbed.
I do not for one minute think it was arts that caused the loss of internet but am anxious to return internet access by any means.
I do not know how to format ..modprobe entry.... to establish internet control.
I have googled the internet and find instructions for other distros which do not work in arch so I am here to find out how to "network Start" or repair the loss of eth0 interface.

Lost localhost now all internet access

Hi
Os X 10.6.8 MacMini
Recently I wanted to set up a webserver so I demo'ed Mamp pro, didnt like it so moved onto Xampp and finally decided to use the one built into snow leopard. It works well and i'm pleased with it.But since then, and it may be unrelated, I've had a problem accessing localhost:8080 on Safari. I have a small app running a server on that port and the past year or more I've been able to access the front end of the app by localhost:8080. Now I cannot it gives the cannot find localhost server error. I did lots of surfing to find the answer but never found an answer.
This morning it was still unresponsive on Safari but I tried it on Google Chrome and it worked. I decided that it must be Safari at fault so I opened up timemachine and restored safari from a month ago..typed in localhost:8080 and it worked, I was well happy. But now sad because localhost is the only address that works . I have no internet access, all external address fail with the server not found error. Safari & Chrome the same.
Please help..
If I updated to Lion would that resolve the problem??
Tony

Recheck the policies again you have set...Might be the settings are not correct..Check this link for setting Access Restriction.
Please let us know if you still face any problem and also send the screen-shots for the Access Restriction settings.

Complete wireless internet access failure:(

Ok everyone, here is the low down for the last month.
I use a 2005 ibook G4, access internet and email set up w/ Mac Mail thru my airport card and jump on wireless cafe that i live next 2. For 3 whole months, i was set up and running internet and email perfectly. I didn't change any setting, service, etc. Except the network from cafe (from linksys to RGII).
1st: as of 1/1, i lost my ability to send email thru Mac mail using wireless access (thru cafe). Error was "port 25 timed out". After spending 4 days with ISP, setting- resetting POP account and outgoing server, pinging port 25 to verify sent, scanning port 25 to verify, etc, etc, etc. This produced no resolution.
2nd: as of 1/21, I have lost complete internet access. I have run the network diagnostic to fix, no go...
SO, I took my ibook to the Genius bar at Apple store for a looksy. Sure enough some setting were off or changed, (by my own troubleshooting). After everything was checked and reset, all was A-OK (at the Store). I could access internet, received AND send email. Yippee!
NOW here is the tricky part... as soon as i got home and turned her on, I could see the airport finding networks (RGII), But when I try to access email or internet (thru Mac Mail, safari) it says my ibook is not connected to internet, same for email. I run the network diagnostic, and it can't fix problem.
When I go next door to see if the cafe is having router problems on there end...Nope everyone is accessing the internet just fine:(
This is NOT a problem with password etc, As the cafe is set up with authentication as NONE. Plus everyone there is able to use the wireless access.
So what do you propose is my problem? Remember this was all working fine for 3 months and started to fall apart this last month. In addition, to having eveything work just fine at the Apple store a mere 30mins before.
Could this be an issue with the RGII network i am jumping on?
Why would I be the only person effected and not everyone at the cafe?
ibook Mac OS X (10.4.3) wireless access at cafes

Though it doesn't solve your issue, I thought I'd
share that I can access many non-Apple access points
(Cisco 1200's, Linksys WAP54G's for example) with OS
10.4.4. This being so, I think we're safe to assume
the issue is not related to a recent OS update.
I'm afraid I must disagree with this. Few months back, I lost my Airport connection when I installed the 10.4.3 System Update. Fixed by restoring from backup and going back to 10.4.3. Managed to upgrade to 10.4.4 successfully and maintain wireless connection to a Compex 802.11g base station. Then I made the mistake of accepting the Airport 2005-001 update. Immediately lost my Airport connection. Other PCs can connect to the base station, and I can access the internet by connecting my Powerbook to the router using Ethernet. Can even see the Airport network and login to the router's admin page over wireless. Only thing that doesn't work is connecting to the internet wirelessly.
Once I changed my base station to an older one I had lying around, I can connect wirelessly again and all seems well.
My conclusion is that Airport Update 2005-001 definitely broke compatibility between Airport Extreme and some 3rd party base stations. The irony is that this update was supposed to "improve" compatibility !

No Internet access BT Home Hub 5

I have a problem that has just occurred over the last 3 days. My computers, BT vision box, sky box and NAS connected to my home hub 5 via ethernet or powerline have no Internet access, they will at times see the NAS, although currently they do not. Occasionally they will get Internet access via wifi. All my other devices, smart phones and tablets are fine, via either 2.4ghz band or 5ghz band. No problems here.
On occasion attempting to access a webpage on wired devices I get a message that there has been a dns server error. Until 3 days ago everything worked fine since the purchase of the hub 5 4 months ago. I have so far tried:
1. Restarting the hub
2. Resetting the hub.
Neither have worked.
Any help appreciated.
Steve.

Hi, thanks for the post. I've just tried to follow the instructions you've provided and on both my windows 7 and 8.1 machines the only option offered is to manage wireless connections. Is this unique to Windows 7 and 8? I don't seem to have the option to manage wired connections?
I've lost wired links to my Sky box and other devices again. Wireless remains solid...

I received a text today while at work about iCloud keychain verification code. I have not signed up for it or anything that uses it. I work out of the city with limited internet access so not sure why I would be getting this. Is my info safe??

I received a text today while at work about iCloud keychain verification code. I have not signed up for it or anything that uses it. I work out of the city with limited internet access so not sure why I would be getting this. I only got this number about a month ago. Apparently someone else had the number before because I get texts from his family members wondering whats going on. I got one yesterday and the person didn't seem to thrilled that the number was cutoff and today I got 2 texts about iCloud Keychain which I don't even know what it is. Seems suspicious to me. If the person who use to own the number is doing it he should know it is not his number anymore because he obviously didn't pay his bills. I'm not too sure about iCloud Keychain so just want to know my info safe?? It says it can store credit card numbers which is what gets me worried. Frankly I think it's pretty stupid to save that kind if information with any kind of app. But I don't want some random person trying to access my personal information because they are bitter they lost their number. Please let me know as soon as possible so I can change passwords or anything that is needed.
thanks

If it were me, I would go to my carrier and get a new number. Since you have only had it for a month, the inconvenience would be minimal.

IPad 2 fully connected to Wi-Fi and a VPN, but not getting any internet access

I'm on iOS 8.3 using an iPad 2, and the other day out of nowhere, I stopped getting internet connection to my iPad. I am still connected to my WiFi network as well as a VPN I was using before I lost internet connection (which is weird, as I figured I'd have lost that), and the WiFi icon is still there. I've tried multiple methods to try and fix the problem:
updating the iPad (I was on iOS 8.1 when I lost connection)
forgetting and then rejoining the network
renewing the lease under the WiFi network's settings
rebooting the iPad
turning WiFi off and on
turning airplane mode and Do Not Disturb mode on, then keeping the iPad turned off for 10 minutes (as suggested here: iPad connected to wifi, but no wifi icon and no internet access?)
unplugging and then plugging back in the router's power
turning off the VPN (it hadn't caused any problems for the week I had been using it, but I wanted to make sure)
doing a hard reset on the iPad
and NONE of these have done anything to help. I have no idea what to do now, as I can't seem to find really anymore possible solutions. Also, yes, I checked the network IP address and it doesn't start off with "169". And the iPad is the only thing that isn't getting internet access, every other device in my house is doing fine, so I don't think it's the WiFi network itself. Unfortunately I can't try connecting to another WiFi network either to see if I can still actually connect to the internet, as I live in a semi-rural area. I've never run into any issue like this in the 3 years I've had the iPad, and I have no idea what's going on. Will I need to take it into an Apple Store to have it fixed, or is there anything left I might be able to do myself?

When you unplugged the router did you leave it off for at least 3.minutes? Try unplugging it again, waiting & then bootimg back up.
Try to connect your iPad again,
If you have another iOS device that is connected, check it's wifi settings under your network the IP address settings & cross compare it to your iPad 2
Some routers also have settings where you can increase allowable connections. Have you tried connecting just your iPad with no other devices connected?
if that doesn't work, I would suggest you try & find a public wifi hotspot to see if you can connect there. If not, then I would suggest your next trip be to a Genius Bar to Let Apple diagnose the issue.

All my apple device has no internet access after connect to my house's wifi.

After connecting my apple ipad to my wifi, it show that there is no internet access. But my laptop can connect it and also use my wifi with internet access. My router is Wireless-G. Why can't I use my wifi????

Hi nkarthikeyan ,
You're right, in the behind configuration, there aren't any NAT configured for the simple reason which's Firewall is on production on another site and users must to connect to our Intranet to working properly so until I found a solution, I do some tests only with one desktop located on site...
I tried to add this command on my configuration but when I do it, I lost connection with computer of my site of ZAG ...
ASA5505-ZAG(config)# nat (inside,outside) source dynamic any interface
Also, I tried this configuration but without success also :/
for no-nat
object network ZAG_L2L
subnet 10.90.0.0 255.255.255.0
object network Trafic_vpn_MainSite_L2L1
subnet 10.239.80.0 255.255.248.0
object network Trafic_vpn_MainSite_L2L2
subnet 10.239.88.0 255.255.248.0
nat (inside,outside) source static ZAG_L2L ZAG_L2L destination static Trafic_vpn_MainSite_L2L1 Trafic_vpn_MainSite_L2L1
nat (inside,outside) source static ZAG_L2L ZAG_L2L destination static Trafic_vpn_MainSite_L2L2 Trafic_vpn_MainSite_L2L2
And to finish my questions, can you explain me this point please :
Also you need to place your real ip address in interface ACL's instead of NATed ip address...
Thanks for your support !
I really appreciate it !

No internet access after virus removed

MacAfee anti virus removed a Trojan (zeroaccess) after which my desktop computer lost ability to connect to the internet. MacAfee told me to contact my ISP after we did various tests that confirmed that the computer does not connect to the internet (i.e., "ping test"?). Other computer in the house connects to FIOS internet wirelessly with no problem. I don't think that the problem is with FIOS or the router but is due to changes in programs caused by the virus. Is this something that Verizon can help with or not? MacAfee wants to access my computer remotely to repair damage done by the virus but without internet access they can't help me.

Make sure you have no proxies. Virus's often create proxy settings and that is usually what kills your connection.
Open Internet Explorer by clicking the Start button , and then clicking Internet Explorer.
Click the Tools button, and then click Internet Options.
Click the Connections tab, and then click LAN settings.
Make sure nothing has checkmarks there.
Afterwards,
Using the ping command to test the connection between your computer and the router or gateway
Using the ping command to verify your Internet connection
Post back the results. Also let us know if you are wired, or wireless
