Mac will not connect to sony or vizio hdtv.

I've been using a rocketfish hdmi adapter for a month with no problems connecting to both of my tv's.  Now I can't connect with either.  Help!

Sounds like you may have downloaded a Trojan such as the one called 'DNSChanger' or 'OSZ.RSPlug', which can alter the DNS settings of your network connection. This particular Trojan can be inadvertently installed if you have come across certain Quicktime movies where got a window stating that you have to download and install a particular codec in order to see the video.
If you have agreed to that installation, your system can be infected and your DNS settings altered, which results in your system using the wrong DNS servers, which can slow web surfing to a crawl.
This can be fixed by downloading and running a freeware utility called DNSChanger Removal Tool which you can download from here:
http://www.versiontracker.com/dyn/moreinfo/macosx/33696
Once you have run that utility you have to re-boot your Mac, then reset Safari, and re-enter your DNS settings in System Preferences/Network.

  • The bluetooth on my Mac will not connect to my iPhone 6.

    I am trying to connect my phone to my mac so I can use airdrop. The Mac will not connect to the phone. I checked my System Information and the Bluetooth on my Mac is LMD 0X4. I believe the problem is that it needs to be LMD 0X6. How do I upgrade?

    You do not need to connect/pair the devices to use Airdrop. All you need to do is have Bluetooth on and on the same Wi-Fi network. See this support document for answers to other questions about setting up and using AirDrop. Mac Basics: AirDrop lets you send files from your Mac to nearby Macs and iOS devices - Apple Support

  • Mac will not connect to internet

    Hello I have two macs that will not connect to my time capsule's internet. I know it is not the TC because I have a pc that is right next to it with the same settings as the mac and can connect to the internet. I wonder what the issue is.

    Go to the System Preferences and Network and when the Box opens make sure that you are set to Automatic and below that the name of your Network is in there and finally in the box on the left that Wireless or Airport is selected and Drag it to the top of the list and the Green Dot is on the Wireless Network that is selected.
    Then repeat it on both computers.

  • DHCP disappeared and Mac will not connect to internet!

    When my Macbook's config is switched to DHCP the Airport Express will not connect to the internet but when it is PPPOE it has not problem at connecting. I never had this problem before but now I am worried and want my DHCP back because it is interfering with other configurations.

    Go to the System Preferences and Network and when the Box opens make sure that you are set to Automatic and below that the name of your Network is in there and finally in the box on the left that Wireless or Airport is selected and Drag it to the top of the list and the Green Dot is on the Wireless Network that is selected.

  • MAC will not connect to PC.

    I have installed Network Magic on my iMac and two Windows PCs. From the MAC I can see the windows files in Network Magic but when I try to open them I get "Unable to open folder called ......on PC. The folder is currently unavailable." From the PCs I can see and open the files on the mac no problem.
    Please help. 

    Hi there, can you please post some addtional info so that the Cisco Network Magic Support Community here on the Linksys Forums can assist you? The info that is needed is as follows:
    1. Your Network Magic Version installed: example: 5.1.8345.0
    2. The type of connection to the Internet, like DSL, Cable, or Verizon FIOS Internet Connection.
    3. The Brand of Modem and its Model Number the router is connected to.
    4. The Brand, Model, Hardware Revision of your Router and include the Firmware Version: Linksys WRT54G v8.2 Firmware Version 8.2.05
    5. The Method of connection your problem computer has to the Router: Wired or Wireless.
    6. The Connection in use on the problem computer: Ethernet Port is a PCI Adapter Card, Linksys WMP54G v4.1
    7. Operating system and version and Service Pack Level, if any. Ex. Windows XP Professional x64 Edition Service Pack 1
    8. Software Firewall in use: McAfee Personal Firewall 9.0.136 Build
    9. Also if any Anti-Virus Program or Spyware Program is actively protecting your computer. (Some Programs like Spybot does cause problems, not being able to go to specific sites.)
    10. Include your location in the post or fill out your Profile for this forum and include the location. (Reason: Not all Routers from a given manufacturer are available everywhere.)
    11. Post the link to your Router Model, if an off-brand Router or not found in the USA on the Manufacturer's USA's Website. (Why? Posters helping each other, aren't working for Linksys or Cisco, so make it easier on the posters helping on.)
    12. And any other information you think is important if answering your own post, and the nature of the problem, itself.
    13. By posting all this information, you can hopefully get help from someone that has the same equipment that you have and theirs is working. Not everyone has the same equipment.
    (Thanks to thecreator for providing me this list of info needed for NM support)
    Please note that I am note that I'm not an employee of Cisco, and I am volunteering my time on here to assist other NM users, thanks!
    My Cisco Network Magic Configuration:
    Router: D-Link WBR-2310 A1 FW:1.04, connected to Comcast High Speed Internet
    Desktop, iMac: NM is on the Windows Partition, using Boot camp to access Windows, Windows 7 Pro 32-bit RTM, Broadcom Wireless N Card, McAfee Personal Firewall 2009,
    Mac Partition of the iMac is using Mac OS X 10.6.1 Snow Leopard
    Laptop: Windows XP Pro SP3, Intel PRO/Wireless 2200BG, McAfee Personal Firewall 2008
    Please note that though I am a beta tester for Network Magic, I am not a employee of Linksys/Cisco and am volunteering my time here to help other NM users.

  • Mac will not connect to airport

    I am trying to connect to a disk attached to my airport base. when I click on it in finder it says connecting as and hangs. If I click disconnect it hangs. I am not doing this from and admin account so I would like to use the connect as button but that is no where to be seen. Obviously I am missing things about id, passwords and network connectivity. can anyone point me to documentation on this or at least how to set up an airport base so I can access the shared disk?
    I am using the latest osx on a 1 year old iMac with a brand new airport base with time capsule.

    Hi fdrussell,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!  Were your Airport Extreme and Mac Pro communicating earlier?  If so, what changed?  
    First try shutting down the computer, and recycling the power to the Airport Extreme.  Then start the Mac Pro and see if that resolves the issue.  
    If needed, perform a Hard reset of the Airport Extreme:

    I hope this information helps ....

  • My mac will not connect to my iPad in iTunes... what's going on?

    Recently I tried to connect my iPad to my Mac to sync music. I PLUGGED IT IN, and it started charging, but iTunes would not acknowledge it. I tried a WiFi sync. The iPad saw the Mac, but the Mac was still blind. The iPad is on the device list, and it has been since I got the Mac. My iTunes is up to date, I've restarted the Mac and the iPad more than once. My iPhone connects without issue. Help!
    Devices:
    iPad 2 (2011) iOS 7.0.4
    MacBook 2009 White OS X 10.9 (latest of Mavericks)
    iPhone 5c (2013) iOS 7.0.4 (NOT an issue)

  • Mac will not connect to WiFi

    Hello All,
    Can anyone help? My Mac has just started to run at a snails pace and on checking the connectivity WiFi icon at the top I found it had a '!' over the icon. It appears to suddenly be having problems connecting to my WiFi, the router is fine as my iPhone can connect seemlessly.
    Any advice?
    Thanks in advance.
    Les.

    Thanks for the advice but I have just ran a diagnostic check and the Mac says the network is working fine however when clicking on the WiFi icon the status keeps switching from 'on' to 'Looking for Networks'.
    It's bizarre as all my other devices are running very quickly.
    Maybe I should book an appointment with the Genius Bar.
    Any further advice welcome.
    Thanks.
    Les

  • New Mac will not connect Internet but old pc will

    I got a new MacBook pro today and sat down to get on it after getting it all set up to go online and get it connected to the cloud. But it's saying it can't connect to the Internet. My old pc is connected and before the Mac was to but now I can't get it working. I did reset the connections but that didn't work.

    I'm having the same problem.  Brand new Macbook pro trying to set it up for my daughter for Christmas.  I have a Mac desktop, Ipad2, 2 ipod touches and my iphone all running no problem on my wifi.  Router has been reset, still the Macbook pro can't connect to the internet.  I've checked and rechecked the password.  Everything seems fine.  I do have an IP address the Verizon tech support changed with me so I put that one into the settings on the macbook.  It seemed to like that and got farther into the process, but couldn't connect to the internet.
