My wifi won't work on my mac mini but works on my other devices?

Ok so I'll try to word this as best as possible. Basically, my family recently got a new wifi network. It works perfectly fine on my iphone, ipad, and all of my family member's macs, phones, and ipads. When I used my mad mini for the first time since getting a new network, the wifi won't work on it. it says i have 3 bars when I am connected to the new network, but when i try to use safari, it won't load. i even tried using chrome so the browser is not the issue. what do i do to fix it? i've already tried restarting my computer and all of that stuff.

I can't post a screenshot because the internet on my conputer doesn't work. I'll just type it out:
(Network Name)
DIsconnect from (Network Name)
IP Address:
Router:
Internet: Reachable
Security:
BSSID:
Channel:
Country Code:
RSSI:
Noise:
Tx Rate:
PHY Mode:
MCS Index:
and on the dns servers is just says:
under dns servers it says: 10.0.1.1
and under search domains it says: brittanyroad.com

  • Help! my iPod touch bluetooth cannot discover my iPad nor mac air, but it can discover other devices... I don't understand why.  My Mac and my iPad can't discover it, as well... :(

    My iPod touch bluetooth cannot discover my iPad nor mac air, but it can discover other devices... I don't understand why.  My Mac and my iPad can't discover it, as well...

    Thanks for this... I actually wanted to pair my iPad with my iPod touch so I can use the keynote remote app in my iPod touch to control my keynote presentations... I was able to control my presentations through wifi... I wanted to use the bluetooth since internet connection is quite slow.. The app tells me I can connect through bluetooth with my iPad but sadly, it can't... I've been trying to pair them but the can't discover each other... :(

  • My flash drive works on a Mac mini, but not on a MacBook Pro. How do I get it to work?

    Also, when I plug my phone into the computer using the USB drive, the computer does not recognize it. I have not tried my phone on the Mac Mini. They have both worked before on my MBP. What's the problem?

    It may just not be configured to SHOW.
    1. Finder>Preferences.
    2. MISSING FROM DESKTOP: Make sure under "General" for "Show these devices on the desktop" that you have a CHECK mark under "hard disks" as well as "external disks" (if you have a dash that indicates specific items are set to hide and others are not)
    3. MISSING FROM SIDEBAR: Check the same items under the "Sidebar" section if you are missing them from the Sidebar of Finder.

  • Magic mouse lagging or unresponsive when using bootcamp windows 7 on Mac Mini but works fine in Mac OSX 10.8.4

    I updated the Apple Broadcam built-in bluetooth radio software through Windows and it found an update. Updated Boot Camp software/drivers to version 5.0.33, the latest which includes a wireless mouse piece.  Replaced the batteries again and turn it off/on several times. In the Bluetooth menu, this mouse usually does not show up in connected devices or will not show up as a device that can be added.  Once it did show up right after turning it off/on but took forever to connect then lost its connection right away and couldn't be discovered again.
    I don't think drivers are the issue, seems to be some kind of conflict with wireless adapter & bluetooth maybe. 
    I found this which looked promising but no luck:  http://kemal.co/index.php/2012/09/laggy-magic-mouse-boot-camp-windows/
    Any ideas?

  • Does The Apple USB Modem Work With The Mac mini ??????

    Just wanted to know if anyone has successfully used the new Apple USB Modem with the Mac mini, is it compatable ????
    Thank you for your input on this.
    Mike D.

    It says it works with the Mac mini, but does it really? I just received my modem yesterday and could not get it to work with my 1.42 mini - the more expensive one that comes without a dialup modem! I looked carefully at the specs and it appears the Apple USB modem requires Mac OS 10.4.3, not the 10.4.2 that comes with the Mac mini.
    Talk about stupid! And the mini docs say it comes with the "latest" version of Tiger. Not! So I can download the upgrade, I guess. IF I could get on the internet! This is extremely annoying. I guess I'll have to download the upgrade on another computer and transfer it somehow. Boy, those Apple guys sure are tech geniuses, aren't they???

  • My Magic Trackpad won't work on my Mac Mini?

    My Magic Trackpad won't work on my Mac Mini? The cursor moves a little and then will not respond at all. Gestures do not work

    Yes, it's one of the things that can interfere.  Here are some others including airport.  Try changing your access point to use 5 Ghz or a lower 2.4 GHz channel.

  • My  Samsung Sync Master 225UW's camera (webcam) won't work with my Mac mini

    Hi,
    I need help making my monitor's webcam work with my Mac mini. I have Mac OS X 10.5. When the computer launches the screen turns on, everything's perfect but the webcam will not turn on when I launch Photo Booth or iChat....what should I do?

    That camera doesn't work with my mac either (I'm using it right now with a g4 powerbook, but will try again with my new power mac coming in... though I doubt it will make a difference)
    The 225UW is specially made for Windows Vista, and I wonder if it needs a mac driver for the camera or something. We may be S.O.L. I knew that was a possibility when I ordered this monitor. Oh well... pay yer money... take yer chances.

  • Wifi concerns replacing eMac with new mac mini

    I have an eMac (PPC) which is currently maxed out at 10.5.8.  I was thinking of upgrading to a mac mini.  My only concern is that I currently have an old mac mini (late 2006) and it's ability to use wifi with its internal airport interface is severely limited.  The only placment I have found this mac mini to reliably work in is if the mac mini and the wifi router (belkin) are located in the same room.  The eMac I'm thinking about replacing is on a different floor than the router it's airport interface just works, as do all of our laptops.  I understand that some the wifi problems with this mac mini might have to do with the antenna placement in its chassis.  So my question is has Apple improved the reliability of the airport interface in the mac mini ?

    The router is really NOT the issue as far as I can tell.  Laptops situated right next to the mac mini have no problem getting and maintaining a connection.  The eMac with a much older airport card and situated on the same floor as the mac mini, maintains its connection as well.  The late 2006 mac mini initially starts off with a good connection but within 10-20 minutes after startup, the connection goes bad, and won't return no matter how many times one reboots.  If I shutdown the mac mini and restart it after an hour or so, the connection becomes solid again for about 10-20 minutes.  Interestingly, when the mac mini is in the same room as the router, the connection starts out solid and stays solid. 
    My concern, from what I can tell, is that the basic chassis design of the new mac minis don't appear to be that much different in concept than my late 2006 mac mini, except for missing the CD R/W drive and being more compact.  Is there an inherent design flaw in the mac mini (older and current versions) that degrades wifi connectivity in cases where the mac mini is not within line of site of the router?

  • Built-in ethernet port not working in unibody Mac Mini

    Hi,
    So ever since I acquired this new mac mini I haven't been able to get it to recognize any devices connected via ethernet. I obviously checked the cables and all is good there. I tried connecting it to another mac, and while the other machine was detecting a device (the mac mini) at the other end of the cable, the mac mini kept saying that the cable is unplugged or the device off.
    After several days of having the issue I decided to remove the ethernet service from the network preference pane to set it up again but to my surprise, the built-in ethernet option was not available (I only got airport, firewire, bluetooth DUN, VPN, PPPoE and 6 to 4). At this point I tried removing the networkinterfaces.plist file form the system configuration folder in the system preferences folder to no avail. I then tried to zap the PRAM, NVRAM, reset the SMU, SMC and all that kind of things to get the port recognized by the system but no luck.
    When I look at the system profile I get these weird results in Ethernet Cards:
    pci14e4,4353:
    Type: Other Network Controller
    Bus: PCI
    Vendor ID: 0x14e4
    Device ID: 0x4353
    Subsystem Vendor ID: 0x106b
    Subsystem ID: 0x0093
    Revision ID: 0x0001
    Link Width: x1
    BSD name: en0
    Kext name: AppleAirPortBrcm43224.kext
    Location: /System/Library/Extensions/IO80211Family.kext/Contents/PlugIns/AppleAirPortBrcm 43224.kext
    Version: 425.16.2
    Comparing it to other macs I have It should read "ethernet" rather than that strange pci name on top and the kext name shouldn't read airport but something like AppleIntel and in location it shouldn't direct to the IO80211Family.kext package but rather to the IONetworkingFamily.kext.
    So I popped in the system install DVD and fired up System profiler and at that point I didn't even get an "ethernet cards" option in the left side pane. So this is leading me to believe that the hardware is not being recognized at all, so maybe it's damaged. I did replace the HDD with a bigger one and change the RAM modules to bigger ones but I don't think I could have damaged the hardware in these processes, also I don't see how this would affect the ethernet port as it's integrated to Motherboard and didn't messed with it at all (I was very careful, to say the least!).
    The last thing to do is reinstalling the system but I don't think it'll help (after seeing that the ethernet port is not even being detected by the install OS) but I need to offload all the data from my internal disk and at the moment I don't have an spare drive to do it.
    So, what's the recommendation? A field trip to an Apple Store? Closest one is like 3,000 km from where I am right now, so...
    Well, thanks for any pointers, suggestions and help in general.

    I do not have any answers for you. Yes it appears to be reading what should be an ethernet card as an AirPort card. Have you played around with trying to install another version of Mac OS X other than the version that shipped with the Mac mini? Apple has long told us that we should not install a version of Mac OS X that was older than the shipping version. With the Mid 2010 Mac mini, the Restore DVD has the only version of Snow Leopard that will work with this Mac mini's specific hardware. At least until Apple releases 10.6.5. If you have installed other versions of Mac OS X, then erasing the HDD and installing the OS from the Restore DVD(s) that shipped with the mini may get you back to the point you need to be.
    Unfortunately I think that you voided your Apple Warranty when you installed the different HDD. That was always a question in the past when folks wanted to open the former version of Mac minis and upgrade the RAM. But with the 2009 models folks started reporting here in the Apple Discussions that Apple was informing them that they had voided their warranty by opening their Mac mini. This new model made the RAM user upgradable, but the User Manual specifically states on page 43, 54 and 61 that there are no user serviceable parts in the Mid 2010 Mac mini except the memory.

  • Does a 500 GB SSD work in a Mac Mini (mid 2011)?

    I have a Mac Mini (mid 2011), 2.5 GHz and 4 GB of memory.
    The iOS app called MacTracker says that this model is "configurable to 256 GB solid-state drive or 256 GB solid-state drive and 750 GB (7200-rpm) hard drive".
    I was thinking about buying a Samsung Electronics 840 EVO-Series 500GB 2.5-Inch SATA III Single Unit Version Internal Solid State Drive. My doubt is: will it work in my Mac Mini or the maximum storage must be 256 GB? If it runs a 500 GB SSD, a Samsung EVO SSD would be a possible (or a perfect) choice?

    The info from MacTracker brings up the options available in a Configuration to Order
    at the time the product was new; so that tells people who may have found their unit
    bought with odd specs, such upgrade may be due to a CTO Apple factory upgrade.
    Other options that can work, of even higher spec capacity, can be researched in
    such mac-centric sites as macsales.com and others who have a reputation for
    customer service and quality products; many have information on their sites...
    Doesn't hurt to ask. OWC macsales may even have an online chat. Info on how
    to upgrade Apple products with later parts (out of warranty, etc) is available in
    their page as well as iFixit.com guides. Everymac.com also offers spec info.
    Good luck & happy computing!

  • Help! limewire will not work on my Mac mini 10.4.11 now that i cleaned it

    Help! LimeWire will not work on my Mac mini 10.4.11 now that i cleaned it out and had to get the new LimeWire. It keeps asking for Java 1.6 but I'm having no luck. :O( LimeWire was the reason I bought a Mac!

    Very weird day in Firefoxland
    First on a Powerbook G4 running 10.4.11 I respond to an invitation to upgrade to Firefox 4 (like a lot of others). Long story short, I wind up losing the browser altogether -- including all bookmarks. Why? Because neither the Firefox homepage (or CNET downloads) makes it clear that 4.0 is for OS 10.5 only! Amazing!
    Then I try to register to post a reply in a thread that crits Firefox for not making this System Requirements info upfront clear. But the Register page I’m taken to (https://support.mozilla.com/bs/users/register) is in SERBO-CROATIAN!!
    Then I try to log into Chat a couple of times and when it’s not CLOSED its a long line waiting and THEN it closes.
    WOW!! Are the wheels off the wagon here or what!?!

  • Since my G5 died I was thinking about getting a Mac Mini, but I have a ViewSonic Monitor (from 2004) and a USB keyboard and mouse - I also have the external drive tha downloaded my files on to. Do you think the monitor, keyboard and mouse will work on it?

    Since my G5 died I was thinking about getting a Mac Mini, but I have a ViewSonic Monitor (from 2004) and a USB keyboard and mouse - I also have the external drive that I downloaded my files on to. Do you think the monitor, keyboard and mouse will work on it? Would I have to get a hub so I could use the stuff I already have? Is that viewsonic too old to work on it?
    What else would I need? Please advise...

    Yes for keyboard and mouse.
    The monitor will work if it has an HDMI, VGA ir DVI input. If it only has a VGA input you will need this adopter
