Mail won't sync on home network but works fine at school

Frustrated, one day my iPad was recieving and sending mail no problem but now it won't sync with my mail accounts when I am at home, however, it works complelely fine at school or other network. I've deleted the account and restarted the iPad, input the gmail info again and restarted, restarted my network, turned off my iPhone, changed PUSH settings to manual...
Not sure what's going on...
Any answers out there?
Dave

On his phone go to settings - reset - reset network settings. Note password will have to be re-entered for known wifi again.

ICloud won't sync to my iPad. Worked fine last night!?

My iCloud works fine on my iPhone5, but it won't sync with my iPad. It started last night. I have followed the instructions on the support site, deleted and reinstalled several times and nothing. Argh! Any advice?? I have an important email hanging in the outbox. Thanks!!! :)

Is this how you sync them back to iPad? (Tap to enlarge image)

Podcast episodes won't download in iTunes app (but works fine on desktop)

Hi, I can't figure this out:
Our podcast episodes simply won't download in the iTunes app on iPhone. The download simply stops at 10.3 kB (or sometimes at another value), without really getting started at all.
This is very odd, since downloads are working fine in iTunes on the desktop, and in other apps on the phone (such as Instacast).
Here's the iTunes-page for the podcast:
http://itunes.apple.com/no/podcast/filmfrelst/id303539607?l=nb
And here's the RSS feed URL:
http://montages.no/filmfrelst_files/rss.php
(The podcast is called "Filmfrelst", and is searchable in the iTunes app)
Any clues?

OK, seems like I located the problem - sort of. It's not the feed that's the issue, but rather the fact that I'm pushing my MP3-files through a PHP script which does some statcounting. If I access the MP3 files directly, the iTunes app downloads them OK.
So I'm guessing maybe my headers aren't exactly what the iTunes app is expencting? Here's a snippet from the PHP file which outputs the MP3 data:
header('Content-Type: audio/mp3');
header('Content-Length: 'filesize($location));
@readfile($location);

Magic Mouse won't right click on files, but works fine otherwise. 10.6.8

My Magic mouse just suddenly seemd to stop right clicking on files. I can right click on blank sapces in finder or on the desktop and it gives me the usual drop down menu but as soon as I try and right click or ctrl+click on a file there's just nothing. Can't seem to find any similar problems on google. Any ideas?

Hi, yes. The right click would work at start-up until I click on 'always allow' for permissions for google drive, then it dissappears
Unfortunately I found no other workaround other than to switch to the other views (although I strongly dislike working in the other views). But I just use Drive in my internet browser when I do use it, so it's okay for me to uninstall it. Maybe it's something to contact google about so they can fix it on there side.

Problem with address bar: won't execute typed in URL but works fine with bookmark address or links

Address Bar: Typing in URL and cannot access page (nothing happens hitting <enter>). Using bookmarks or links works just fine.

Create a new profile as a test to check if your current profile is causing the problems.
See "Basic Troubleshooting: Make a new profile":
*https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Basic+Troubleshooting#w_8-make-a-new-profile
There may be extensions and plugins installed by default in a new profile, so check that in "Tools > Add-ons > Extensions & Plugins" in case there are still problems.
If that new profile works then you can transfer some files from the old profile to that new profile, but be careful not to copy corrupted files.

Attachment won't open on one iPhone, but works fine on the other. Why?

2 iPhones with the same iOS version receive 1 email with an attachment from an Outlook user: one iPhone can open the attachment, the other can't (it only shows as winmail.dat). Why is this and how can I get it to open? Thanks!

He advised me to 'back up' everything and 'reformat' the computer.
I have been looking at how to do these tasks - not 100% on both.
The quickest way to do this is to create a clone copy of your existing internal Macintosh HD. You can create this copy using applications like Data Backup, Carbon Copy Cloner, or SuperDuper!.
I use an external USB HDD for the clone copies.
The following AppleInsider article will give you an idea on how to use Carbon Copy Cloner to make a clone backup of your Mac's hard drive.

I have a WRT610n and the 2.4 GHz just stopped working (5 GHz network is working fine)

Almost with the coming of the new year, the 2.4 GHZ net slowed down to nearly nothing.
That is to say that it works only very slightly, and is usually not even visible as an option to select.
But the 5 GHz network is available and works fine.
Here is my setup:
Speed touch modem supplied by Telus
Linksys router WRT610n ( i think version 1, because there is nothing written to tell me otherwise - there is no ver 2 next to the model number)
Macbook Pro laptop (new)
dell windows laptop (old)
two pc desktop machines (one running 2.4 GHz wireless net adapter, the other running a 5GHz net adaptor)
an iPhone (new) --> only works at 2.4 GHz (i checked)
the wireless networks are named as follows:
"SHONESY 5 GHZ" for the 5 GHz signal
"SHONESY 2.4 GHz" for the 2.4 GHz signal
for months, everything worked fine. the macbook communicated on the 5 Ghz net along with one pc downstairs (wirelessly).,
my iPhone communicated nicely with a full strength signal and good speed.
then, something changed and the 2.4 GHz net all but failed.
when the dell is plugged in via a hard line ethernet cable to the router, no problems - i get 1.3 MBPS on the speed test
the macbook can only see the 5 GHz network, but works fine.
same for the pc downstairs that runs on a 5GHz wireless network USB adapter
the iPhone now only gets one bar (if anything at all), and usually cannot connect (but can usually see the SHONESY 2.4GHz network in the utilities/wifi setup area)
i am really stumped.
could the router have failed? how can i check it?
what could explain what I am seeing.
Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

Try resetting the device by holding down the reset button on the rear of the device for 30 seconds. If this does not resolve your issue, then it may be a hardware malfuntion. I have noticed that my 610n was running very hot and it was a common problem so I put a laptop cooler under it and its been keeping it nice and cool. May have just burned out. I hope you get it working.

Why doesn't Firefox Sync work in my home network, but at work?

Firefox Sync on my laptop does not work when my laptop is connected to my home network, but e.g. if I'm at my office.
The internet connection at my home is fine, I can surf the web with that very Firefox on both IPv4 and IPv6, DNS etc. is also working. Logging in to accounts.firefox.com also works, as does connecting Firefox to the Sync account. Only the process of syncing itself fails. On my desktop computer at home, I have exactly the same problems. When I open https://sync-209-us-west-2.sync.services.mozilla.com/ in a browser tab, I see a confirmation message that sync runs on that server, so apparently the network path between my computer and that server is free.
Upon investigation with Wireshark, I see the successful TLS handshake, then some packets from the client that are not answered and after some time the server closes the connection (Encrypted Alert). Apparently, no content is transferred between client and server. I attach a screenshot of how Wireshark sees the conversation between server and client (The image upload here didn't work so I put it on the web: http://ibin.co/1zXABHKdj5mA).
To exclude a possible misconfiguration or bad add-on, I created a clean new Firefox profile and connected it to my Firefox account, but this shows exactly the same problems.
Fun fact: Firefox on my Android phone does sync in my home network.
Below, I will link two log files, one successful sync (office network) and one failed sync (home network):
Sync @ office: http://pastebin.com/rZmfrbdL
Sync @ home: http://pastebin.com/a3KUCevJ

I have the new iOS 6.1.2 on my iPad. My wifi connects to my home network but keeps dropping it and won't reconnect. Did not have this problem with previous iOS.

I have the new iOS 6.1.2 on my iPad. My wifi connects to my home network but keeps dropping it and won't reconnect. Did not have this problem with previous iOS. Apple, you have a quality assurance issue. Don't be like Microsoft where they send out pieces of junk with testing it.

Try the following to rule out a software problem:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Power off and then back on the router
- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
- iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
- iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

MacBook Pro won't connect to home wifi, but will connect to other networks

Help! MacBook Pro won't connect to home wifi but will connect to other networks. Others can connect to my home network. I've tried diagnostics, resetting the router, restarting my computer, and forgetting the network and then trying to access it. Nothing works.

Hey Brittany,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
It sounds like you’ve done quite a bit of troubleshooting to try and resolve the issue with your MacBook Pro not connecting to your Wi-Fi network. If you haven’t already, take a look at the article linked below which provides some additional troubleshooting suggestions that may help you resolve the issue.

My printers works fine on my home network but disappears on a remote desktop terminal connection

As I don't really know how to post a general addition to the knowledge base, I'm doing in Jeopardy style. Here is the question to the above answer. Well close enough.
Many people have reported all over the net issues with printers working just fine on their home network but disappearing when they connect to a server via RDT. There are some legit updates needed where windows did not see anything but LPT and COM ports for printer re-direction assignment. There are Mr. Fix it's for those and registry patches. When all of that fails, the information highway seems to dead end.
Here is what I learned today via 2 specific printers: HP1022 and HP2840 lasjerjets.
After many months of frustration and 7 1/2 hours with Microsoft advanced prof support I've finally pinned down this printer and a slew of others. This problem as far as I have come across deals exclusively with HP printers. In simple terms: the drivers are flawed. This 1022 is a prime example. It prints locally and via TCP/IP just fine. I have about 7 other printers and dummy printers in my printer folder. Enter a remote desktop session and ALL of them populate except the 1022. This shows that the hooks and RDT finders are locating your printers and installing them properly as remote printers. All except the 1022.
Log out of your RDT session: goto the local 1022 setup and change the printer driver to a PCL driver. I used a 1200 PCL driver. Now log back into your RDT server and hockus pocus! there is your printer. Totally un-usable because the driver will not run this printer. Caveat: each time I did this XP crashed (I couldn't get to the properties TAB anymore -- I had to un-install the 1022 and then re-install it with at least 1 reboot in the process)
Moving on we go to the HP OfficeJet/LajerJet2840. Same thing. It won't pass through as remote printer in RDT. Go local. Set the printer driver to AppleLaserWriter8500 and boom. (same logout, change, back in steps) and your LJ2840 shows up and works.
While I will have to wait until tomorrow I am betting that this will fix the exact same problem with the HP Officejet 8500A all in one with the exact same problem.
Hey HP? Whats with the drivers??
Another work around if you have a static enough environment is to install your local printer that will not show up under RDT on the server, and then point the port to your fixed IP on your router, and passthru port 9100 to your locally installed printer that is failing. You can now be on RDT and chooses the network printer that is printing to the TCP address of your home (or office) router.

Unable to access website using home network but able to access using school network.

Hi, I'm currently on a MacBook Pro running OS X Mountain Lion and Safari v6.0.4.
As per the title, I'm unable to access particular websites, namely abduzeedo.com and fromupnorth.com, using my home network but when I try to access using my school network, I can access it freely.
The error message I get is: "Safari can't open the page [website] because the server where this page is located isn't responding"
I've tried clearing my cache, resetting my IP, deleting the library file (or whatever it was that some people suggested in forums) but it still doesn't work ):
Any suggestions?

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
Step 1
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your personal files or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
*Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
Step 2
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login, or by a peripheral device.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including Wi-Fi on certain iMacs. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of steps 1 and 2.

My ipad recognizes my home network but will not connect to the internet. When I click on AirPort/preferences at the top of the imac screen it says..."AirPort has a self-assigned ip address and may not connect to the internet".How can I change ip address?

My ipad recognizes my home network but will not connect to the internet. When I click on AirPort/preferences at the top of the imac screen it says..."AirPort has a self-assigned ip address and may not connect to the internet". If this is the root of the problem,how can I change ip address?
Ipad will connect no problem to other networks.

First thing you need I think is to get your iMac connected to the Internet.
Shut down your iMac and you iPad. Then power off your router. Wait 30 seconds and power up the router.
After the router indicates that it is connected to the Internet then start up your iMac and see if it connects. If the iMac connects to the Internet then your iPad should too.
If this power up sequence doesn't work you'll have to dig into the router setup to make sure it is working properly.

My mac mail won't let me receive emails but will let me send them. How do i fix this ?

my mac mail won't let me receive emails but will let me send them. How do i fix this ?

I am intermittently having the same problem. I can send email, but once the Mail application is opened, it will only pull emails in from the server one time and then I have to "Force Quit" and restart the application to receive incoming mail again. I've tried restarting the computer. I've made sure I have all the system updates. I've checked for conflicts between applications and so far nothing fixes the problem. Once in a while, Mail starts functioning normally on its own, but in a few days it goes back to the same old problem. Has anyone figured out what if going on with this isse?
