My computer was not connected to the internet when I turned it on it said it had an update for firefox.how is this possible
I turned on my computer unaware that the internet cord was not attached.I clicked on modzilla firefox to open browser.It first had an update to download.So I let it run then the modzilla firefoxbrowser opened and said unable to connect.Is this right? Did I down load a update from firefox?
Just to be clear. You have downloaded the Yosemite installer. However you say while it's updating you get the error you are not online. This is confusing since you shouldn't be able to use your computer in the process of updating.
Exactly where do you see you need to 10.9 to get on Safari?

I know I am connected to the internet, because I can access email and other websites. Is there a setting in Firefox that is preventing the results from being transmitted back? The quiz is administered by Questiomark Perception. The online tax course is offered by Liberty Tax Service
Hello,
The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information. <br>
'''Note''': ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.''
To Reset Firefox do the following:
#Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
#Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
#Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
#Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.
Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
Thank you. -

I have apps on my iPad and my computer is not connected to the Internet. How do I get my apps to load on the computer ? Because it says the apps on my iPad will be replaced with the apps that are on the computer but there is none there!
Authorize the computer in iTunes -- Store>Authorizie this computer. Transfer the purchases from the iPad into iTunes and then you can sync with iTunes. Read this for instructions on transferring purchases from the iPad into iTunes.
Transfer purchases.

so in other words, I can NOT sign in on my account, much less authorize this laptop. can't even access help. have downloaded the latest itunes software, checked my firewall settings etc.... (the itunes help window even opens up with "itunes help is unavailable because your computer is not connected to the internet". granted I am basically computer illiterate, in other words if something isnt working my knowledge is pretty limited with tweaking things. I need some help!
On an Alenware laptop, this issue is often older drivers on the Bigfoot networking card.
Head to the drivers and downloads page for your model of Alienware at Dell. Check for newer versions of the drivers for your Bigfoot card. If you're behind and you update, can you get through to the Store (or Help) now? -
i buy my ipod touch like 6 months ago it was working very well but yesterday it is not connecting to the internet when i am connect to my internet it said unable to connect can you please tell me plz help me
Do other devices successfully connect to the router?
Does the iPod successfully connect to other networks/routers?
Does the iPod show wifi bands in the upper left?
Try:
- Resetting the iPod:
Reset iPod touch: Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Powering off and then back on the router
- Resetting networksettings: Settings>General>Reset>Reet Network Setting

Places: "Your computer is not connected to the Internet"
Hi All,
When my MacBook goes to sleep while running Aperture, sometimes my Places view wakes up with "Your computer is not connected to the Internet". Even after I reconnect, the map refuses to use the Internet. I can actually perform place searches using the query in the upper right, but when I click on one of the "Google results" nothing happens because, well, "Your computer is not connected..."
This doesn't happen with every sleep, though. Has anyone else had this problem and figured out a useful pattern to get Places to reconnect?
thanks,
nathan
PS, yes, I will be reporting this bug to the Aperture team.I have the same problem with Aperture on my Macbook with Lion.

Every time my MacBook Pro is put to sleep, it will not connect to the internet upon reopening unless I perform diagnostic assistant.
Test after taking each of the following steps that you haven't already tried. Back up all data before making any changes.
1. Make sure the network is on the preferred list by following these instructions. It's important to read the article carefully, as it's the starting point for any further efforts to solve the problem. If you skip any of the steps, the problem may not be solved. Make sure the box marked
Remember networks this computer has joined
is checked.
2. Follow the instructions in this support article under the heading
Symptom: After restarting or waking from sleep, my computer might not connect to the Internet
3. Reset the PRAM.
4. Make a note of all your settings for Wi-Fi in the Network preference pane, then delete the connection from the connection list and recreate it with the same settings. You do this by clicking the plus-sign icon below the connection list, and selecting Wi-Fi as the interface in the sheet that opens. Select Join other network from the Network Name menu, then select your network. Enter the password when prompted and save it in the keychain.
5. From the Location menu at the top of the Network preference pane, select Edit Locations. A sheet will drop down. Click the plus-sign button to create a new location. Give it any name you want. In the new location, set up the Wi-Fi service with the same settings you used before. Click Apply and test.
6. Launch the Keychain Access application. Search for and delete all AirPort network password items that refer to the network. Make a note of the password first.
7. Repair permissions on the startup volume.
8. Turn off Bluetooth and test.
9. Reset the System Management Controller.
10. Reinstall OS X. -
Halfway through the OS X Yosemite update it says I am not connected to the internet (when I know I am because I can search through the app store). How can I fix this? I cannot get on Safari because it requires an update to Mac OS X 10.9 or later.
Just to be clear. You have downloaded the Yosemite installer. However you say while it's updating you get the error you are not online. This is confusing since you shouldn't be able to use your computer in the process of updating.

That was the first thing I tried..what the site told me, but its still telling me I'm not connected to the internet when I am. Should I just delete everything by hand. Like I said I wanted to take it back and upgrade to the 80 gig ipod.

Hi,
I have been encountering this issue and I have run out of ideas as to what would be causing this error. On numerous apple devices for our business I will receive an error 3014 when updating a device via iTunes, and this is after the software update downloads. When attempting to update the device over wifi it states that the device is not connected to the internet, when I ensured that the device has active internet connectivity.
Our business uses a Juniper firewall, which I thought might have been the initial cause of the issue, however I have ensured that ports 80 and 443 have full traffic flow and nothing blocking it, and I've also exempted all *.apple.com websites that I could find listed online.
I have also tried deleting the host files on the computer I am using to circumvent the issue.
If anyone could shed some light on what I can do to resolve this, that would be appreciated.Hi evanVIT,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I understand that issues like the one you are experiencing can be very frustrating. For this situation however, for update errors in the range of 3000-3020, I would recommend the troubleshooting steps located in the attached article. Please use the steps and information as a reference.
Error 3194, Error 17, or "This device isn't eligible for the requested build"

After I downloaded iTunes and i requested me to authorise, it kept stating that I was not connected to the internet. I was and am connected to the internet. Why would this be happening?
Hello Hpenny,
This may be due to iTunes being unable to connect to the iTunes Store.

Why does iTunes say it is not connected to the internet when the connection is active?
No problems running iTunes on Windows XP machine with Norton Internet Security.
Moved to new computer with Windows 7 - still running Norton Internet Security. iTunes does not start when iPhone4 is connected with USB cable. Worse problem is that all internet activity (check for updates, activate this computer, etc.) is halted with message that computer is not connected to the internet... but it is. All browser and email activity works right.
Do I have a Windows 7 setting problem, a Norton Internet Security setting problem, an iTunes setting problem?
Thanks in advance.For the device connectivey issues try Andrei Cerbu's post here or see TS1538: iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows, in particular section 5, forcing a driver update.
I suspect Norton's firewall is blocking iTunes. I can't tell you offhand where to look to tweak things.

IPhoto 11 Version 9.2.1 Places does not work. Says I am not connected to the internet when I am!
Wanted to see if anyone could help with this issue I am having. Did a few searches but most of the problems I found related to older versions of iPhoto. When I click on Places it says that I am not connected to the internet when I clearly am connected. Anyone heard of this or have a solution? Thank you!
I'm afraid I don't have much to add other than to say this is happening to me too. However, it is not consistent. Sometimes I get iPhoto Places to connect and show location, and other times (on the same photo with gps tag) it will say not connnected. I too saw the earlier reports of this problem, and also that it was fixed in v8.0.1 of iPhoto.
Currently running iPhoto v9.2.1, and connecting via wifi.
