I just got this computer today, everything works fine but I cannot connect to the internet. The Wi-Fi thing in the top right corner tells me that im connected, but when I try to open Safari, it says that I am not able to connect to the internet. I have done everything the computer has told me, and i still can't connect. I need help please!!

The problem lies between your router and the ISP.
Pull the modem or router/modem power plug, wait about 30 seconds and plug it back in to establish a new connection to the ISP.
Try another website, another device and see if that works if not then call your ISP for assistance and/or reconfigure the router.
If your router isn't secure and you had bad leechers the ISP might have suspended the access or perhaps met the monthly data cap rate.

Ipod touch 1st generation can't connect to my linksys wireless router wr110. THe signal is strong and there is a check mark beside my network name, but when I try to open safari it says "unable to find server".

My friends MacBook connected easily to my wireless, but why not the ipod touch? When prompted for "Password" I enter the security key info and nothing, nadda....zip. The MacBook asks for the "Security Key" info not "Password", like the touch. What's the difference?

Click on the blue arrow to the right of the network name, if IP address starts with "169." ,restart your router. It should connect properly after your router reboots in a minute or two.

TS1398 On my ipod, it shows that it's connected to a wifi network but when i try to open safari, it does not work

On the wifi settings it shows that my ipod is connected to a network, but when I try to open safari it does not open it, because it says its not connected to wifi

You may not really be connected to your WiFi network.
Your router may not have given your iPod a valid IP address. Go to Settings > Wifi > your network name and touch the ">" to the right to see the network details. If the IP address starts with 169 or is blank then your router didn't provide an IP address and you won't be able to access the Internet.
Sometimes the fix can be as simple as restarting your router (remove power for 30 seconds and restart). Next, reset network settings on your iPod (Settings > General > Reset > Reset network settings) and then attempt to connect. In other cases it might be necessary to update the router's firmware with the latest from the manufacturer's support web pages.
If you need more help please give more details on your network, i.e., your router make, model and version, the wifi security being used (WEP, WPA, WPA2), etc.

App Store claims update for app I never purchased and then switches me to a russian account. When I try to buy with my account i get an unknown error. How can I fix this?

When I opened the Mac App Store on my White MacBook(2010 model running Lion), it told me I had an update for Angry Birds. I never bought the original Angry Birds for Mac, so I decided I'd buy it because I enjoyed it on the iPad. When I clicked buy, it had my email switched to a russian one and when I tried to buy the app on my account, I got an unknown error (4). I can buy other items on my account, but when I try Angry Birds it always returns the error. Any ideas on how to fix it? Thanks in advance!
edit: Sorry! Found the answer on a related discussion.

i have this too -- it's from trying to install pirated sw. I have no idea how to fix it -- even trying to buy a legot copy gives an error in the app store.

It shows that my computer is connected to the internet but when I try to load Safari it says I'm not connected

I have reset my router multiple times, and I was connected to the internet just fine before. I have a booster and it was working great until yesterday when it said I was connected to the internet but everytime I tried to load safari it said I wasn't connected. It is working while I am using the hard-line, but I am wondering how to fix the Wi-Fi. I have also reset safari, cleared the cache, and recieved every update.
Thanks

I too am experiencing an EXTREMELY slow connection to the internet when my PC comes out of sleep. When I check/troubleshoot the connection, I have all green lights, indicating I should be able to get on line, but it takes about 4 or 5 minutes before I can do so. It seems that this problem started shortly after the iCloud (or i Could as another poster said) was loaded. I know its not my ISP, because my wife, who works on an IBM machine gets right on, no problemo. Is there something going on with either the recent update or the i Could (use to be able) addition? Defective software?
TIA for any response.

When i try to open Safari, it says it quits enexpectedly. How can i fix this so that i can use Safari again?

Whenever i open my safari browser, it says "Safari Web Content quit unexpectedly." I just did a software update to get the latest update of Mountain Lion, and now safari wont work. Also, about a week before the update, i would get the same message a few times a day, but safari would still open right back up afterwards. My mail and iTunes store also still work.

Pull the modem or router/modem power plug, wait about 30 seconds and plug it back in to establish a new connection to the ISP.

Some iTunes music content is listed as having been synced to my iPhone, however, when I try to access it on my iPhone, it's not there. How can I fix this?

I had a problem that some of the content I had purchased from iTunes was skipped over when I tried to play it on my iPhone. Music copied from CDs and some other content from iTunes worked fine. To try and fix this, I removed all the music from my iPhone and then added it all back on again. This worked for some of the content that was being skipped over, but now some of the content that was being skipped over doesn't appear on my iPhone at all.
When I open iTunes on my MacBook Pro and choose "On This Phone", there are 100 songs - all purchased directly from iTunes - that are listed as being on my iPhone but aren't there when I open iTunes on my iPhone. I also notice that you can't redownload purchased tracks from the iTunes store.
Please help. Thanks.

Answers to the similar "No Content" question seem to say I should turn off ZoneAlarm. However, I can't find this option in iTunes and some Googling suggests that ZoneAlarm isn't actually an integral part of iTunes anyway so that doesn't seem to have helped.
