If you're using a Windows machine, disable IPv6.

  • My macbook pro is connected to wifi but it will not connect to the internet.

    My macbook pro is connected to wifi but it will not connect to the internet. When I go on safari, it says that "Safari can't verify the identity of the website". Then I tried to update flashplayer but you need the internet to update it. All this only started happening after that Moutain Lion software was downloaded onto the laptop. Please help, I have been internet-less for a couple months now.

    Hi rynhelp,
    If you are not able to connect to the internet after installing Mountain Lion, see this article for information on how to start troubleshooting:

  • I just signed up for cellular service for my iPad but it will not connect

    I just signed up for cellular service for my iPad but it will not connect.  Verizon told me to turn off wifi, switch the unit off and back on.  It's just 'searching'.  What do I do?

  • My new iPhone 4s paired with my iMac but it will not connect to transfer files by bluetooth. It says the iMac is not supported!

    My iPhone 4s will pair sucessfully with my iMac, but it will not connect so that I can transfer files via bluetooth. It says "bluetooth network not available" or "iMac not supported". Just insane. What to do now??

    I can't pair my iphone 4s with my imac.  It is very frustrating.  I can walk by anything resembling a  bluetooth and my iphone with pair...but not with my mac.  Any assistance would be appreciated.

  • I'm trying to sync Outlook calendar (office 2010?win 8) with my iphone 4s. All works well when running control panel manually but it will not run automatically after that. Anyone got any ideas

    I'm trying to sync outlook calendar and contacts via icloud control panel. Everything works when control panel is run manually but it will not run automatically after that. Anyone got any ideas

    I am having a very similar problem. Until 12 hours ago, I was using my recently replaced 4s (with iOS7) flawlessly, receiving emails and calendar info from Exchange (Outlook 2010). But starting last night, it all stopped. I have deleted and added the account several times, tried making simple changes (considering whether the username is case sensitive, or not, etc.) and cannot fix it. I have iOS 7.04. Interestingly, the first time I changed the case to lower case, it seemed to respond immediately, and downloaded many emails with no sender, no content, and with a 12/31/69 date. Yes, 1969. And then nothing happened. Help please!

  • Since upgrading, both our wireless printers are still visible, but OSX will not connect with them.  Both work via connecting from other sources via the same wireless router (airport).  What do I need to do to get my printing/scanning working again?

    Since upgrading, both our wireless printers are still visible, but OSX will not connect with them.  Both work via connecting from other sources via the same wireless router (airport).  What do I need to do to get my printing/scanning working again?

    First thing to try is reset Printing System:
    OS X Mavericks: Reset the printing system
    Next would be reset the router (power off 15 secs then back on). And, 2 minutes later, reset the printers 1 by 1.

    I have 46 movies downloaded from apple on my windows 7 PC I can only see 32 of them on my apple tv, I keep trying to share on my computer but they will not connect, any ideas? Sometimes I can connect though computer and get all my movies but usually I  can not connect though the network.

    thank you Diesel vdub  this helps but I just need to clarify - I understand about copying the intire folder ( cool thanks ) for the second part though, you are saying I can not do this if the 2nd computer does not have internet access? ( which you seem to be saying - bother! )
    many thanks

    I can pair my iPhone 4 with my MacBook and my Macbook Pro but they will not connect. My iPhone keeps telling me it does not support this even with bluetooth turned on.The devices section keeps searching all the time. Is this an antenna problem? Or something else ?

    Your iphone is right, it is not supported. The iphone's bluetooth protocols do not include file transfer, but are intendes only for headsets, stereo headphones, cars, and keyboards.

    Just got a new iPhone 6, selling my 5 to Amazon. Trying to follow Apple instructions to erase content before sending but 5 will not connect to iCloud so I can't proceed - when promoted to enter password I keep getting "Verification failed. There was an error connecting to iCloud". I have checked apple id/password multiple times and they are correct. Any ideas out there? Thanks in advance

    HFJ,
    every once in a while my iPhone 5 fails to recognize my Apple ID. I don't have to go all the way to Restore to Factory Settings, I just have to turn off the phone. (Hold down top button until screen asks to slide if you want to turn it off.)  Give it a few seconds, turn it on again.

  • Home Sharing between Macbook Pro and AppleTV not connecting, what's wrong?

    So I have one of the late 2011 Macbook Pro models and the newest AppleTV that I do a lot of Home Sharing for movies and stuff like that. This problem keeps popping up though where they can't communicate with each other and the videos either stop loading half way through, or my AppleTV can't even connect with my macbook to start watching at all. I've gone through most of the possible solutions I've seen posted before and even the troubleshooting by apple about it. I've made sure they are both on the same apple ID, the same wi-fi network, restarted my router, even re-setup my router from scratch, closed itunes on my macbook, turned my wifi on and off a couple of times (worked for a few then stopped again), made sure that everything is on the most current software, but nothing seems to be doing the trick. This has been going on for months now and I'm pretty much sick of it happening. Somebody please help me fix this so I can get on with my movies!!

    Intermittent problems are often a result of interference. Interference can be caused by other networks in the neighbourhood or from household electrical items.
    You can download and install iStumbler (NetStumbler for windows users) to help you see which channels are used by neighbouring networks so that you can avoid them, but iStumbler will not see household items.
    Refer to your router manual for instructions on changing your wifi channel or adjusting your multicast rate.
    There are other types of problems that can affect networks, but this is by far the most common, hence worth mentioning first. Networks that have inherent issues can be seen to work differently with different versions of the same software. You might also try moving the Apple TV away from other electrical equipment.
    If this doesn't help, contact your ISP, this is most likely a network problem.

  • I want to back up an IMAP account via POP3 in Thunderbird but it will not download old emails that are still on the server. How can I do this?

    I wand to use Thunderbird to back up and purge old emails from an account via POP3. This account is accessed by other users using IMAP on their computers and phones.
    I want to archive and purge old messages from the server using Thunderbird. But, it will not download messages that apparently are marked as read on the server via IMAP.

    Pop mail accounts must be set up to 'leave messages on the server'.
    check this before using.
    * Tools > Account Settings > Server Settings for the mail account
    or
    * menu icon > Options > Account Settings > Server Settings for the mail account
    select: 'leave messages on the server'
    optional: select: 'for at most xx days' this will delete anything older than specified number of days select 'Until I delete them' when you delete an email it will be deleted off the server.
    click on Ok to save settings.
    Pop mail accounts only look at Inbox and download whatever has not been previously downloaded regardless of whether it has been read or not. They cannot access nor download from any other folder on the server.
    If you wanted to download emails in other fodlers, you would have to move emails into the Inbox in order to download them and this may not be very practical in your situation.
    What you can do is synchronize your IMAP folders to get a copy downloaded to your IMAP mail account.
    Then go into 'offline' mode to stop any further synchronizing as synchronized folders do get updated.
    MozBackup tool could now be used to backup the Profile as synchronising created mbox files which contain emails.
    You can also do the following to get a copy outside of the IMAP mail account:
    Create the same folders in 'Local Folders'.
    Then right click on email and 'copy to' and select Local Folders and the folder you require.
    Putting a copy in Local Folders means these emails are also on your computer and they are not influenced by anything you do in the IMAP folders.
    You would need to backup emails in these folders.
