  • Need help connecting to the internet via Dial-up?

    Hi! My son and his mini have moved back to Vermont, and where he is only dial-up is available. I thought the hookup would be simple......I haven't a clue. I have been on high spped cable for so long that I need help!!!!! Here is what I tried. Phone cable to the modem. (Can't connect it directly to the mini because it only takes an ethernet cable) USB cable from the modem to the mini. Using the Verizon software we got nowhere because we could not get a connection...Need help, Thanks Bill

    The first bit of info is which Verizon number to use to dial-up, so that it is a local call. Is your son going to call from Essex Jct or somewhere else? Basically we need his area code and first three digits of phone number, if you are comfortable giving that. Otherwise you'll have to call Verizon and ask them for the local number to call.
    Then we have to look up how Verizon wants login info. Perhaps another customer can help here. The conventions vary from one ISP to another. Please don't give us you login here!
    That should be enough to get you connected and surfing. Then we have to configure the mail program. But again a little research or help from another Verizon customer will do the trick.
    Please don't install their software. I've spent countless hours removing ISPs' extra software from friends computers. Such software does not necessarily make things faster and it leaves you with a non-standard system. It's also about getting their hooks into you to push more advertising at you and more revenue their way. (This helps explain why they are so eager for you to use their software BTW.)
    There are techniques to speed up dial-up, but they don't involve extra ISP software and ads. They have to do with keeping the ads away in the first place.

  • I am trying to update my itunes to the latest version, but it says the itunes server could not be updated and i need to connect to the internet when I amlready am connected

    I am trying to update my itunes to the latest version, but it says the itunes server could not be updated and i need to connect to the internet when I amlready am connected. How do I get the latest version of itunes so i can sync my iphone with itunes without losing all my songs?

    We were able to fix our machine!  I just could not make sense of the error message, so we were trying non-Microsoft, non-Apple solutions. 
    Our Solution:  Install MalWareBytes, and run a Quick Scan.
    Even thought both Microsoft anti-virus and Defender were running on our Windows 8 machine, MalWareBytes found about 100 problems.  As I looked over the types of problem and locations, I found several that referenced the exact directory referenced in this message.  The machine had to be restarted for MalWareBytes to complete the cleaning, but iTunes installed afterwards with no problems.
    Thank you MalWareBytes!

    What is the exact wording of the error message?

  • What do I need to connect to the internet

    I have a mac book OSX 105.3 Leopard, which i purchased in the USA. Since arrivng in the Uk I have been ubable to connect to the internet. I was under the impression that once connected to a modem I would have the interenet. I tried connecting it to the cable modem in the place where I'm staying and nothing happens. It seems that nobody here has a mac, and there is no Apple store for me to go to ( Liverpool). I found one store that sells aplle products and they told me it need to be reconfigured???? The apple phone support are telling me it's the modem. I was going to get airport, but apple says that won't help. I've never had problems with any of my macs in the US, but here I feel stranded. Do I need to replace the cable modem with a wireless modem? Will this work as they are expensive and non refundable. Help!

    Welcome to the Apple boards:
    It could be an old modem that is not Leopard compatible.
    You may need to borrow a PC in order to check and/or download the latest modem firmware.
    Also temporarily turn off your firewall.
    Do you have the instruction book for the modem?
    If the modem is a NAT type (most are) the you should be able to access it directly by entering its IP address. Here in the US, it's usually 192.168.1.1 or .251. Apple uses the 10.x.x.x scheme and there is another one.
    If you manage to access the modem this way, you might need a password. The cable company or the manual should have the defalt userid and password.
    If you manage to get "inside" the modem, then you know that the problem is partially solved.
    You might also use the Mac Network Utility.app to debug your system.
    I don't think it is a compatibility issue, per se, but simply some settings that have to be changed.
    There are many Leopard users in England and perhaps someone there can chime in and be of further assistance.

  • Need help connecting to the Wii

    My sons just got the Wii and cannot get connected to the internet. Before I started messing with the Airport Admin Utility, it was at least detecting the access point but just not connecting. But now I can't even get it to detect the access point. I know it should work and I know there are other posts on here regarding this same issue, but I need somebody to walk me through it personally. I have already gone to support.nintendo.com and I still can't figure it out. Is there anybody out there willing to help me? PLEASE!

    Were you able to get it hooked up? I have successfully set my Wii to catch a signal from my new Airport Extreme Base Station.
    Make sure the AEBS is set to 802.11N (b/g compatible) and either has the wireless security off or WPA/WPA2 personal as a start.

  • I have downloaded Viber to my iPhone 4s,  it was previously working but now displays a message saying i need to connect to the internet before i can make a call or anything else, My phone is connected but the app does not seem to recognise this?

    I have downloaded Viber to my iphone 4S,  it was previously working,  but as of today it has continually asked for an internet connection when i try to make a call or send a message.  It displays this message while connected to the internet at my home,  or with 3g.  my internet connections seems to work fine on other apps that require this.  I have tried to reinstall viber but i can not not setup my profile becauase the same message displays.  does anyone know how i can resolve this?

    Thanks, as it still will not work, I assume it is damaged and needs to be sent in for repairs.

    In the Elements Organizer 13
    The key to all this is to click on/select/highlight the Album that you have created in Local Albums.
    Then make sure that the Sort By: (in the row below the highlighted "Media" header is set for Album Order.
    You should see a number at the top left of each of thumbnails.
    Then, click on the thumbnail that you want to move, hold down the click, and drag the thumbnail to the wanted new location
    in the line up of thumbnails.
    Often I had to press down hard on the drag.
    Please let us know if that worked for you.
    Also, in Edit Menu/Preferences/Keyword Tags and Albums/Enable Manual Sorting Options, I set all for manual.

  • Windows 10 Pro connection to the internet

    I upgraded yesterday to Windows 10 Pro and have had issues with internet connectivity. Google Chrome and Microsoft Edge work fine (even though if I run Chrome update it tells me that I am not connected to the internet). Many software that needs to connect to the internet to validate ownership can no longer connect. Spent a while with a Windows rep on a chat and he thought it was a driver issue, but when he transferred me to a technician the wait time was too long..... Has anyone any ideas ? Programs like Norton Utilities, Quicken, Steam cannot connect to the internet.

    Hello , I understand that your desktop computer is experiencing issues connecting to your network, and I would be happy to assist you in this matter! You can check for any applicable drivers for your system by checking Windows Updates, or periodically checking the Software and Drivers page for updated Windows 10 drivers. I hope this helps! Best Regards

  • Airport Card won't connect to the internet

    I recently got my first Mac.  It is a used MacPro and it ran off of the G4 OS.  I upgraded to the MAC OX X Tiger system.  The problem I am running into is that I cannot get it to connect to the internet.  I have tried to use the wireless router that we have and have hard lined it with an ethernet cable.  Both of which won't work.  Are there any updates that I can use to get it connected to the internet?  How can I hook this up?  HELP!

    No software updates are needed to connect to the Internet. Macs have been good at Internet long before Mac OS X.
    The Mac is so simple to set up from scratch that an earlier model was called the Internet Mac, now shortened to iMac.
    Ethernet cables have fewer variables, so I would recommend starting with that.
    System preferences > Network > Ethernet ...
    ... (Assist me) > (Assistant) ...
    ... and set it up again from scratch (by answering the questions) including a new "Location", NOT "Automatic". This procedure eliminates all the old users preferences and starts over with no pre-conceived notions.
    Be sure to (Apply) or close the window and save changes to have them take effect. Occasionally, a Restart is needed after making extensive changes to get them to "take".
