Mac cannot connect yet every other computer can...

I really hope someone can help me...I have a late 2010 macbook pro. and all of a sudden it decided to not connect with my wireless at home. EXCEPT in certain locations...but it does not work where it always had previously...I dont like sending emails from my garage too much...anyways...i am able to go online in some places within my house...but my office for some reason does not work...my airport can still identify my wireless being there and has a strong signal but can not connect...other macs, pc's, and ipads can access the internet from this location no problem...but the computer just doesnt want to go...i have contacted my internet provider and my router company to troubleshoot the problem to no avail...so alas im still sitting here with either my internet timing out or receiving and error 105...any suggestions? ive tried everything...making a new location for my preferences...even factory refreshing my computer...and upgrading to lion...and still nothing...please help
thanks so much

    Try this  - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430

  • How can I read a document created under "pages" on a Mac book air on an other computer

    How can I read a document created under "pages" on a Mac book air on an other computer or even send this document in a mail to anyone ?

    Only Pages, Preview, Pages for iCloud beta, and Pages v2 or later on IOS 7 can open native Pages v5.2.2 (.pages) documents. Sending a Pages v5.2.2 document to someone without Pages v5.2.2 is futile.
    If you are using Gmail or Dropbox, you will need to right-click on that Pages document, and then choose compress from the contextual menu. You can then attach filename.pages.zip, because it appears as a single document, and not a folder.
    Pages v5.2.2 has a Share button on the Toolbar. Providing your document is already in iCloud storage, you can Send a Link to iCloud via the following:
    The Share toolbar icon also allows you to Send a Copy to Email, Messages, and AirDrop. This will present you with the document export sheet, the same one you get if you chose to File > Export To menu item, as the alternative.
    If you are sharing document content with an MS Office user, then the document you want to send them is either a Word .docx, or .doc. If they want just a read-only view of your content, send a PDF, for improved cross-platform exchange.

  • I cannot open facebook in safari it is coming up with cannot connect to server. I can open all other websites though. I have reset cookies

    I cannot open facebook in safari it is coming up with cannot connect to server. I can open all other websites though. I have reset cookies & history and hard reset a number of times. I can open other websites no problems.
    Any help appreciated.

    You cleared cookies and data in Settings>Safari? Did you close Safari as well before you reset the iPad? Double tap the home button and drag the Safari thumbnail up to the top of the screen to close it.

  • Have a MacBook. Shows I have an internet connection, but cannot get on. I do have connection with my other computer???

    Have a MacBook. Shows I have an internet connection, but cannot get on. I do have connection with my other computer???

    I've looked at the IP adress, and it started with 169.
    This means you aren't actually connected to the Internet; only to your router.
    An easy first attempt at a fix is to turn your router off and then on again.

  • Can't Connect to My Other Computer - Grayed Out Icon

    For some unknown reason I am unable to connect to my other computer. I see an icon for it in my finder window, but it looks grayed out. When I click 'connect', an alert box pops up saying that it's contacting the IP and "Timeout in X seconds". It counts down to 0 and nothing happens.
    File sharing is on. I've restarted the computers. No firewalls. Bot h are able to connect to the internet. Very simple setup. What's wrong?

    Hi, what does your network setup look like, physically?

  • Mac cannot connect to iCloud because of a problem with my iCloud account

    I keep getting the following message when opening my email....mac cannot connect to iCloud because of a problem with my iCloud account. 

    I have another kind of message. I am connected perfectly to iCloud but receive this every hour or so : "This Mac cannot connect to iCloud due to a problem with "address mail" of said account.
    But :
    1. I AM connected
    2. When I open i Cloud prefs it asks me to type my iCloud details (email address and password), then it says iCloud is in fac ALREADY open.
    3. When reading troubleshoot doc Carolyne linked to, I read this :
    Close and reopen iCloud preferences before attempting to sign in to iCloud again.
    If that does not resolve the issue, check your email folder and Junk folder for a verification email sent from Apple.
    If there is no verification email in your email folder or Junk folder, click the Resend Verification Email button in iCloud preferences.
    My comments :
    - How can I close iCloud ? Document doesn't say. By clicking the "—" sign in iCloud prefs ???
    - I cannot see any "Verification Email button in iCloud.
    I'm on Yosemite…

    Have you tried clearing DW's program cache yet? That's usually my first step if something "just started happening"...
    Deleting a corrupted cache file
    Server updates can cause DW to need a setting change. Have you already tried toggling Use Passive FTP in your site settings yet?
    Has anything changed on your local network, like an update to a firewall?
    If you are connected via wireless router, a low likelihood but possible thing to test would be a wireless router problem. Try connecting the computer directly to your modem, bypassing the wireless router (if you aren't using an all in one modem/router setup) to see if that makes any difference.

  • Firefox cannot load websites but other browser can

    background - family community home pc...mozilla worked great for the longest time (along side IE)...all of a sudden mozilla can't connect to any website...IE always can (yuk)
    troublshooting steps (still can't connect to web w/firefox):
    1. Removed Mozilla, re-installed, same results
    2. Searched for all mozilla folders. Deleted two folders and also daughter's mozilla iphone folder. Removed Mozilla, re-installed, set connection to "no proxy", same results.
    3. Ran "House Call" - no malware found.
    Help! do not like IE!

    Have you already seen [[firefox cannot load websites but other programs can]]
    *What exactly happens, or does not happen and do you get any error messages ?
    *Is it all websites you have a problem with, or only some ?
    * What happens if you work offline, can you load web pages that are saved on your own computer ? <br> (save something with IE, -as HTML web page files - maybe this page, then try opening it with both Firefox and IE)
    Can you use firefox to look at your local disk such as (depending on your setup) ''file:///C:/''
    Try checking security settings, and security logs, is firefox being blocked ?

    If no computer:
    Only if:
    If you previously turned on FIndMyiPod on the iPod in Settings>iCloud and wifi is on and connected go to iCloud: Find My iPhone, sign in and go to FIndMyiPhone and use Remote Wipe to erase the contents of your device. If you have been using iCloud to back up, you may be able to restore the most recent backup to reset the passcode after the device has been erased.
    You can also wipe the iOS device by installing the FindMyiPhone app on another iOS device and using that app to wipe the device.
    Otherwise you need a computer with iTunes and an internet connection
    Disabled
    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
    iOS: Forgot passcode or device disabled
    If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.                        
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings        
    For how to restore:                                                             
    iTunes: Restoring iOS software
    To restore from backup see:
    iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes       
    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
    You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:                         
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store        
    If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode.

  • Hi there i just update my ipad2 and iphone 4 ios6 and now the bluetooth cannot connect to any other ios device?what i have to do now?

    I just update my ipad2 and iphone4 to ios6 but now
    My two device  bluetooth cannot connect with any other
    Ios device.

    Are you running Leopard on your Mac, Laurie?
    If so, try instead updating to iTunes 10.6.3.25. (That supports earlier models of iPhones running iOS 6, even though it can't run the new iPhone 5s.)
    A .dmg installer for iTunes version 10.6.3.25 for Mac OS can be found at the following download page on the Apple website:

  • TS1398 my new ipad works perfectly. the iphone 5, however, cannot connect to the same wifi, can barely get a 3G signal, and the power level is at 53% after being barely used for 1\2 a day. Is this a hardware problem?? My old 3Gs was fine until it died.

    Greetings,
    I've never seen this issue, and I handle many iPads, of all versions. WiFi issues are generally local to the WiFi router - they are not all of the same quality, range, immunity to interference, etc. You have distance, building construction, and the biggie - interference.
    At home, I use Apple routers, and have no issues with any of my WiFi enabled devices, computers, mobile devices, etc - even the lowly PeeCees. I have locations where I have Juniper Networks, as well as Aruba, and a few Netgears - all of them work as they should.
    The cheaper routers, Linksys, D-Link, Seimens home units, and many other no name devices have caused issues of various kinds, and even connectivity.
    I have no idea what Starbucks uses, but I always have a good connection, and I go there nearly every morning and get some work done, as well as play.
    You could try changing channels, 2.4 to 5 Gigs, changing locations of the router. I have had to do all of these at one time or another over the many years that I have been a Network Engineer.
    Good Luck - Cheers,
    M.
