My powerbook g4 connects to amazon,ebay but not yahoo??

i can connect to sites like amazon,ebay etc., but can't connect to yahoo??

I suspect that is because Yahoo wants a newer browser thatn can run on the average Powerbook. There were a number of reports a few month back of people locked out of Yahoo because Yahoo declared their browsers were too old.
Your best option is to get the TenFourFox browser. I use it exclusively on our surviving G4 Macs. Web sites recognize it as a supported version of FireFox. Downside: the last version of TenFourFox that supported plug-ins was v17 and they are well beyond that, so that means no Flash videos.

  • Connection ... able to connect using sql developer, but not sqlplus or toad too

    Hi folks, having this issue, with only one of my so many databases, what might be the reason and how to fix/correct this, please assist.
    Able to connect using sql developer, but not sqlplus or toad too; sqlplus error: ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve the connect identifier specified
    thanks in advance.

    SQLDEVELOPER works since it use JDBC Thin & does not use tnsnames.ora
    ORA-12154 ALWAYS only occurs on SQL Client & no SQL*Net packets ever leave client system
    ORA-12154 [B]NEVER[/B] involves the listener, the database itself or anything on the DB Server.
    ORA-12154 occurs when client requests a connection to some DB server system using some connection string.
    TNS-03505 is thrown by tnsping & is same error as ORA-12154 thrown by sqlplus or others.
    The lookup operation fails because the name provided can [B]NOT[/B] be resolved to any remote DB.
    The analogous operation would be when you wanted to call somebody, but could not find their name in any phonebook.
    The most frequent cause for the ORA-12154  error is when the connection alias can not be found in tnsnames.ora.
    The lookup operation of the alias can be impacted by the contents of the sqlnet.ora file; specifically DOMAIN entry.

  • WIFI stopped working after I woke the computer up, now says connected to the network but not the internet, all other coputers and devices connected still with no problems, have pinged IP address from router and got the message "4 packets sent none receive

    Hi,
    WIFI stopped working after I woke the computer up, now says connected to the network but not the internet, all other coputers and devices connected still with no problems, have pinged IP address from router and got the message "4 packets sent none received"... Help
    I have tried network diagnostics which doesnt help... The only other ting is, when I woke the computer up it said tat another device was using my IP... My wife had plugged her phone into the computer to charge etc but even when i turn wifi off on the phone there is no change... also in settings on the phone the IP address is different...

    The answer to your question is - neither!
    Your PC should to configured to obtain an IP address automatically, and to obtain DNS server IP addresses automatically, from the Airport Express. This is the way Windows (and Macs for that matter) are configued by default, and that is the way most people have their computers set up. If you manually configured your PC's IP address to be the same as your wife's Mac, it certainly explains why your PC is not able to access the internet.

    Depending on what iPhone you have when you get to the connect to wifi you should be able to activate your device over cellular data. Try doing a hard reset by holding the home circle button an power button until an apple pops up and the  go through the setup again and when you get to the wifi part a option should be setup with cellular data iPhone 4 and above should give this option sometimes doesn't like showing up that's why u have to do a hard reset first

  • IPhone 6 Plus connects to Airport Extreme but not the internet

    Light on my Airport Extreme is green and the Airport Utility on the iPhone 6 Plus shows that it's connected to the Airport, but not the internet.  What the strange this is, I am still getting email and message notifications but just can't view them.
    However the internet connection on both my iPad Air and Macbook Pro are working perfectly fine, and they are both connected to the same Airport Extreme. 
    The firmware on Airport is updated, I have tried to reset network settings and restarting the iPhone with no luck.  Any suggestions on what to do?

    Give me a screenshot of the working network IP setup on the MBP.
    It should look like this. I need to see the IP address and you can also copy and paste for me the dns address.
    The same thing from the iphone IP address and DNS will then help me figure out what is wrong.
    If they both have an IP like 10.0.1.xx then the DNS or gateway (what apple calls router) has setup wrongly .. try setting manually with the same values exactly as the MBP.
    If however the IP is something public like 200.100.2.100 and the other ipad is similar the Airport is setup wrongly in bridge and you have exhausted the available IP addresses so redo the setup of the Extreme so it is in router mode.

  • Our IPod connects to the WIFi, but not to the internet.

    Our IPod connects to the WIFI, but not to the internet.  We have a wireless router which we connect our MACBOOK to the internet and our IPod.  The MACBOOK works fine, but not the IPod.  It shows to be connected to WIFI, but whenever we try to connect to an internet site i.e. Sarfari, we get an message "Safari cannot open the page becuase it is not connected to the internet".  We have tried rebooting, but it has not helped.

  • TS3972 My Apple TV connects to the wifi but not to the internet.

    My Apple TV connects to the wifi but not to the internet. Currently using a D-Link Router and Shaw Cable in BC Canada.
    Apple says "Connections through proxy servers are not supported". Would that be Shaw? How can I update the ATV
    software without connecting to a TV and the internet? Can I connect it to my MacBook Pro? ATV worked very well in Arizona
    using CenturyLink as an ISP provider and their modem/router. ATV software is 5.0.

    What happens when you try to connect? I would contact your ISP

  • HT1595 Why is my Apple TV able to connect to the wireless but not the Internet?

    I cannot connect to the Internet! It's so frustrating it says it can connect to the wireless but not the Internet I know I have a signal because I have my laptop and iPad connected and working fine but its just Apple TV that cannot connect! Also when I continued without Internet it wouldn't let me sign in with my apple id even though I know it was right is this because I wasn't connected to the Internet? Someone help me please

    It's in your router.  Google is your friend, using the make and model of your router and the key words "port forwarding".
    There are lots of guides, for example http://www.wikihow.com/Set-up-Port-Forwarding-on-a-Router
    The hardest part is figuring out where to go in your particular router's menu system to type in the IP address of your Apple TV

    I won't give you a lecture about how poor WEP encryption is, but are you sure that is the problem? Is it possible that your new modem (or the carrier behind it) is not providing DHCP service?

  • Windows Vista connects to TC/Airport, but not internet

    I have long had a Windows Vista notebook (HP Pavilion dv6000) connect well via a Time Capsule to the internet, along with a PowerBook G4. I recently added an iMac (27" 3.06 dual core) and all was well for a few days, but then had to reset the Pavilion's setting and I can now connect it to the TC/Airport network, but not the internet (I get a "Local only" notation). I've confirmed correct network passwords, tried repair mechanisms, and no luck. Anyone else have this problem?

    I too have this problem, I see that there is a solution solved notice at the top of the page, but I do not see the solution.

  • Connects to Airport extreme but not to internet

    Whenever I close my laptop and reopen, I lose internet connection thru the airport extreme and I won't get it back. It seems that I will have connection to the Airport Extreme, but not the internet.
    Sometimes what fixes it is turning the airport off and then on again (sometimes multiple times). Usually restarting the computer fixes it (but not always).
    What happens is this (viewing Sysprefs/network/airport/network status and "internet connect"): the internet connect will report connecting...then will announce "connected", but show no "time elapsed" at the same time the Net status will read "airport is connected to ..network...with it's own IP address and may or may not be connected to the internet" And I won't be.
    Then, when it starts working again (after the abovementioned turning off/on) it will start counting time elapsed, then in Net Status it will say "airport connected to ..network. you are connected to the internet via airport."
    Also, whenever I use "internet connect" to turn the airport off, when I turn it back on again I will not have internet access, just the messages I list above. The "strenth meter" will say my signal is good (which it should be) and it says I am connected but doesn't show "elapsed time" nor will I have actual internet access.
    Again, restarting the computer will usually work (less often, logging out then back in).
    Another strange symptom-- When I hit the "disconnect" button under the airport section of "internet connect" it disconnects, then reconnects immediately. When I hit the disconnect button w/ in the Sysprefs/network/airport...etc, it does nothing but bring to the front window the "internet connect" window. So the only way to "disconnect" is to turn off the airport (which results in the above problem).
    Side note--I am in the habit of turning off the airport (not the base, but from the computer) when I don't plan on using it for security-- am I being excessively paranoid? I do have my firewall in operation. Should I just leave it (being the airport) on all the time (in your humble opinion?
    Sorry if this makes no sense or rambles, it is now 5:30 am and She Who Must Be Obeyed will be getting up in about an hour wanting to know if I fixed the computer yet. I'm tired.
    Thank you in advance.

  • IPod connects to new PC, but not iTunes

    I bought a new laptop (WIndows XP) a few days ago, but when I tried to connect my iPod it doesn't appear in the iTunes 'Sources' list. It appears in the 'My Computer' folder, and when I connect it to the computer iTunes opens!
    I've had my iPod for over a year, and I know it works with my old PC, and am completely stumped on what to do.... please help!

    I have exactly the same problem as Liam, except that it didn't suddenly start working. I bought my iPod a month ago and it was working fine until my computer crashed and i had to re-install itunes + ipod software. they work fine but iTunes can't connect to iPod, I can see it in my computer, so windows recognises it. i have tried all the suggested solutions to the problem on the trouble shooting guide but none have worked. I use an USB but not 2.0...Please help!!
