My Wi-Fi home network works, but the iPhone cannot connect to the network?

Let me clarify. I have a wifi home network that my laptop connects to and now also my iPhone. They both connect to it just fine and the internet works and everything. I just tried to setup the Remote app but my iPhone won't show up under Devices in iTunes. I know this is a problem with my network because I also tried setting up Home Sharing between my laptop and desktop computer but that won't work either. It's almost as if they're not on the same network because it can't seem to realize other devices are connected, but they are all connected to the same wifi network. My laptop is running windows 7. I have no idea what to do. Can you help please? Thanks!

  • HT4356 I am trying to print wirelessly from my ipad to an epson stylus SX438W. The connection appears fine on both devices but the ipad cannot connect to the printer. It has been working fine for the past 4 months. Can anyone help?

    I am trying to print wirelessly from my ipad to an epson stylus SX438W. The connection appears fine on both devices but the ipad cannot connect to the printer. It has been working fine for the past 4 months. Can anyone help?

    Have you tried restarting the printer? Reboot the iPad as well.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

    Is this a new issue with your iPad meaning that you have been able to connect to the Internet in the past?
    If it worked before try rebooting your router - unplug it for about 30 seconds and then plug it in again.
    Sometimes restarting the iPad is all it takes as well. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    You can also reset Network Settings - go to Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings.Or go to Settings>WiFi>tap the blue arrow next to your network>Forget this Network. In either of those cases, you will have to rejoin your WiFi network and enter your password again.

  • Emails are "stuck" in my Apple Mail Outbox. I have deleted the account and reinstalled but still have the problem. Apple's "Network Diagnostics" report that it cannot connect to the SMPT server.

    Emails are l "stuck" in my Apple Mail Outbox. I have deleted the account and reinstalled but still have the problem. Apple's "Network Diagnostics" report that it cannot connect to the SMPT server. TalkTalk (Tiscali) say there is no problem with their server because I have checked and can send emails with their webmail.

    No that is not it:
    Open Mail>Preferences>Accounts, the first page has this on it
    If you click on the server name in the box (gmail in your case I assume) it opens and reveals this:
    If you select Edit SMTP Server list you get this:
    Post it here and, select the Advanced Tab (which looks like this)
    Post this page as well.

  • BPC Excel: The system cannot connect to the server. There might be network

    Hi Guys,
    I get the following error when i try to connect to BPC Excel: The system cannot connect to the server. There might be network or security issue.
    This only happen on clients machines, I have installed the client tools on the server and tested, i can connect to Excel but not on the machine. My MS office version is the same as the one on the server. BPC is ver 5.04
    Has anyone experienced the same problem.
    your help will be greatly appreciated.

    Let me summarize your issue to see if I may help.  If I cannot, then you will need to work with SAP Support on the connection problem.
    - You have a single or multi-server setup?
    - Installed using BPC 5.1 SP3, (or 5.0.502) correct?
    - You can enter the BPC on the server, both via BPC Excel and BPC Admin?
    - When you initiate BPC Admin on your client, so can connect to the Server and perform Admin operations?
    - When you initiate BPC for Excel, and walk through the connection wizard, you cannot connect to the server?
    - When you are in the Connection Wizard, are you using a path or a Server designation?
    - Is the system on a single domain?
    - When you added users to the Admin Security profile, they were selected from a DOMAIN?
    - You have processed security and assigned ALL TASKS currently and processed the MEMBER ACCESS profiles, yes?
    After all of this, have you uninstalled 1 BPC client, cleared the ProgramFiles/BPC folder, and deleted the local stored BPC information?  If you haven't, just for simplification, I would attempt this process.
    You also hae read all the SAP Support Notes regarding using Excel2007 with BPC and the issues you may experience?
    Please let me know and maybe we can help.

    After upgrading to OS 10.8, my Mac App Store is not working. It says: Cannot Connect To The App Store. Kindly Help

    Also having that problem - I checked and I am connected to internet (can access other websites or other pages in Apple's website), can login from Snow Leopard (10.6.8) with Mac App Store there, but if I use the (external) drive with ML to start up, no go.
    I can get to the "Featured"/initial MAS page, and tried going to the login from there, but same problem as Mitoshacer.
    In my case, MacBook Pro (2.66GHz, 8GB RAM, 500GB external with ML - vs. 320GB internal drive with 10.6.8), March/April 2009 model. Have done searches for the problem online, but nothing shows up (except some for older OS X versions).

  • The system cannot connect to the server

    Hi Experts,
    when I set BPC for Excel connection by connection wizard, I can connect to server and get application set list, but when I login application set, the system show me the message("The system cannot connect to the server"), and log off! how can I fix this problem? is it a firewall issue?
    best regards
    evans

    Hi,
    Can you compare your macro setting (Security level )compare to the system in which BPC is working. Or try as follows:
    1. Unistall BPC
    2. Restart system
    3.Install BPC
    hope it works...

  • Exception Message: The form cannot connect to the data source. Login failed for user 'NT AUTHORITY\ANONYMOUS LOGON'

    When opening a form in SharePoint 12013 that was created from Infopath 2013, I get the following error.
    You do not have permissions to access a database that contains data required for this form to function correctly.
    An entry has been added to the Windows event log of the server.
    Log ID:5566
    When I go to the log files on the SharePoint server. I see the following error.
    Exception Message: The form cannot connect to the data source. Login failed for user 'NT AUTHORITY\ANONYMOUS LOGON'
    I am guessing this has something to do with the UDCX connection and the database.
    Can anyone help me get this fixed?

    Hi Jim,
    Please check the following kb article when it occurs 5566errro with the UDCX conection file, try the method of using the Secure Store Service to store alternate credentials for the data connection method, or the method of stating the credentials
    in the UDC file explicitly.
    Also check if it could help with setting sql server as "SQL Server and Windows Authentication mode".
