New Macbook Pro Connects to Network but not to Internet

I just got a new Macbook pro and I transferred everything from my old macbook pro from a timemachine backup. The internet works fine on my old macbook pro (running 10.5.8) but if I turn on the airport in my new macbook neither machine can connect to the internet. It also makes the internet stop working on my roommates pc. All machines can see the wireless network, just not the internet. Tethering from iPhone works fine.
I've given both macbooks separate ip addresses. Restarted the modem. Run network diagnostics (the server and internet dots are yellow), deleted all other saved networks and restarted, but none of that is working. The new Macbook keeps crashing our internet connection.
Any ideas?
Thanks

You transferred your network PPC connection to your Intel OS X. Go to the blog How I fixed my dropping wireless Airport connection problem in Snow Leopard and follow there steps in resetting the preferences for the Airport card.
If the non of these steps work, take it to Apple ASAP.

Macbook pro connected to network but no internet connection

Hey all,
i have a Macbook pro, running on OS X 10.6.8,
i made a software update, where a java update was made, an HP printer update, a Itunes ipdate and a Macbook Pro SMC firmware update 1.6.
Since then, i cant connect to the internet.
I ran network diagnostics and it says "your connection appears to be working correctly".
Same if i plug in the Lan-cable to my laptop.
Network diagnostics says that my internet is running correctly, but no browser or any other program can connect to the internet.
tried it at 2 different location (home and work) and nothing works. Other laptops have internet connection through the same router and wifi.
restarted router and wifi, did not help
restarted wifiAirport multiple times, wont help,
restarted Laptop multiple times, wont help.
renewed DHCP, and IP adress, i get a new ip adress, and it says im connected but it wont work.
any other ideas?

That doesn't mean anything. You can't telnet to google. lol
The ping you did above shows you that Internet access and DNS is working fine. If it wasn't, you wouldn't be able to get replies. This means that the problem is with your browser. Open up Safari and hit Safari/Reset Safari under it's menu. See if that works to solve your issue. If it doesn't, then it's a plugin or something else (maybe Proxy changes, etc.) which could be causing this. One option you have to test is if the reset doesn't fix it, install another browser (you'll need to download the dmg via another PC and install it on the mac from a memory stick or something) and see if a 3rd party browser works.

Macbook Pro connected to network but won't connect to internet

My Macbook Pro is connected to the wireless network we have with a full signal strength. However, it will not connect to the internet unless I plug the computer directly into the router with an ethernet cord. Additionally, I can connect wirelessly without any problems at hot spots or other houses.
Anyone have a simple fix? I've already reset Safari. I've restarted routers and modems. I don't know what else I can do.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. This happens a little too often.

I think you trouble shot your problem. Get a new router.

Connected to network but not the internet

Hi all,
Earlier today when I tried to get onto the web Safari wouldn't let me. It says I am not connected to the internet, although my airport has full bars. I was using the web this morning without any problems, this just suddenly happened. I have decided it is something to do with the computers wireless settings because I have it sitting right next to a Macbook Pro which connects wirelessly, as do 3 iPhones without any trouble, and I can use the internet when I have my Macbook plugged in via an ethernet cable.
I have repaired disk permissions, restarted a few times and tried to create a new airport connection without any luck. Network Diagnostics just says i am 'unable to join airport network'.
Anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks in advance
Tom

Can connect to network, but not to internet

I have a wireless network set up with four macs connecting to it. Three of the macs can connect to the network and access the internet.
My Black Macbook can connect to the network, but when I open Safari or any other program that connects to the internet I cannot actually get on the internet. For example, I open safari and after a few minutes it says I am not connected to the internet.
I can connect to my neighbor's unprotected wireless network and have no problem getting on the internet with that connection.
I have tried turning the computer off and on and turning the airport off and on and it does not solve anything. I did not do anything to the compueter, it just started this problem out of the blue.
Any ideas on how to fix this?

Do you have IP address limits ? Say I have 5 IP
addresses limit.
That is not it. And, I did not change anything before it just stopped working. The strange thing it is only within my wireless network that I can't access the internet. I eventually get the "you are not connected to the internet" screen each time I try to bring up a web page.

Macbook will connect to wireless but not the internet

My Macbook will connect to my wireless but will not follow through and connect to the internet.
I have checked the wireless setup with my iPhone and the iPhone has no problems getting on the internet.
I have checked with Network Diagnostics and cannot get green lights on the last 2 issues.
I have checked firewall settings and even reduced the level of firewall, still no joy.
I have checked the hardware with the startup disk, all hardware is OK.
Short of a complete reinstall, what else can I do to get my Macbook back on the internet.

I've got a late spring 2009 macbook, time capsule networked with an airport express extending my network. My Iphone never loses it's connection to the network. My Macbook has been dropping daily from the network. The only solution I found was physically disconnecting the time capsule and modem and restarting. This worked but was getting annoying, so I rang Apple.
They told me to go to system preferences, network, location, edit locations, add a location which comes up untitled, then click on assist and keep pressing continue, select your network and enter password. I was told to monitor the situation, but this solution should help.
Tonight my macbook dropped off the network. I went through the above solution and it reconnected, I didn't have to disconnect any of my devices. It's not ideal, but I reckon apple will release an update soon that fixes this internet drop out, reckon an automator every time internet drops using their solution solves the problem...not that i've made one.

CONNECTS TO NETWORK BUT NOT TO INTERNET

Hello, PLEASE HELP
we are trying to get my wife’s computer connected to the internet.
We have an Airport Extreme network that i use for my G5/ OS 10.4.5... and she is using Windows XP Professional on her laptop..
The laptop connects fine to our home network... but will not connect to the internet via IE..
Do I need to download some kind of driver for the Airport to enable it to connect via windows ?
any other ideas ?
Thank you so much
IBM think pad Windows XP Pro
G5 Mac OS X (10.4.5)

After reading some of the similar topics on the
Board, I have taken the password off my system. still
no joy..the IBM thinkpad does not recognize the
wireless system.. and I have moved it next to the
airport to assure an adequate S/N ratio
You said before it was connecting to the wireless network, you are saying now it isn't?
Is the physical switch for the wireless in the on position?
next step is to try to get access by connecting a USB
cable to the rear of the Airport Extreme and then to
my wife’s computer..
do you think this may work better ?
Won't work, the USB port is for a printer.
You can use an ethernet cable from the LAN port and that should work.

I bought a second hand G4 iBook with iLife 09 on it. I have copied iLife to my new Macbook Pro. The applications would not open, so I did a software update and update all three applications, but they will still not open. Can anyone help?

The seller should have given you the original disk so that you can reinstall as needed. But it likely was a single-user license (which really means single computer) so you can only have a copy on one computer at a time. If the seller didn't give you the disk he is probably still using the software on his new Mac. Your best option to get any of the iWork apps to use in OS X 10.6.6 or later is through the Mac App Store. You can then install them on any Mac you have that has access to the Mac App Store using your Apple ID.

Can Windows 7 be installed on my new MacBook Pro, through my network connection? The disc would be in my Windows desktop.

I wouldn't recommend installing through a network connection.
For a Virtual Machine:
If you have the Win 7 media (DVD), use an app like PowerISO or MagicISO to make an ISO file of the install disc and use that.
For BootCamp:
Use the original install media and BootCamp Assistant, to install from your DVD Drive.

How can I sync my iPad 2 with my new MacBook Pro when it is already synced with my old MacBook? I am getting a message on the new MacBook Pro that says I am not allowed to sync the iPad 2 because it is synced to another iTunes library.

How can I sync my iPad 2 with my new MacBook Pro when it is already synced with my old MacBook? I am getting a message on the new MacBook Pro that says I am not allowed to sync the iPad 2 because it is synced to another iTunes library.

1) ensure iTunes is authorized for your iTunes store account(s)
2) connect your device and right-click or control-click it in the iTunes Source list, then choose transfer purchases from the shortcut menu that appears.
3) sync the device
iTunes will wipe the iPad but, since you transferred your purchases in the previous step, your content will be in your library and you can re-populate the iPad with it.
above works for purchases from the iTunes store. for everything else, check out this post by Zevoneer.
also, there are PhoneView and iRip.

WRTG54S Connect to network but not internet

I have a WRTG54S and Mediacom 12mbps. My router worked fine on my old laptop (a Dell running Vista) It sat in a box for about 6 months and now that I have a new one (Sony running 7) I can connect to my network but not the internet. I have upgraded the firmware from 7.6 to 7.8 with no change. I have tried no security, wep, and wap with no change. I also cloned the MAC, again no change. Windows cannot detect any problems and when I try to enable the router to connect to the internet it always says connection failed. I can connect when directly wired to the modem but not when wired to the router or wirelessly. Any ideas? Thanks
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Wire your computer directly to your modem, open a command prompt window and enter "ipconfig /all". Post the full output. That will show what kind of modem you have and what the best configuration for your WRT should be.

My PC is connected to my airport by Ethernet. I can connect to the network, but not the internet. My wireless devices can access the internet

My PC is connected to AirPort Extreme by ethernet, I can access the network, but not the internet. The wireless devices on the extreme can access the internet

Hey DM,
Is the Wireless(WL) router signal coming through the wired-router?
My ISP requires that my Wireless Router is identified from their end. I use AirPort Express, so they need its MAC address from the router. Without that, my network will show up, but my ISP doesn't recognize it and won't allow it to route he internet. I don't know your exact situation though.
Can other wireless computers access the internet? If they can through the WL router, then it might be the MacBook. If they can't, then you might want to contact your ISP and ask if they can see your wireless router?
Let us know.

Can I move my iWeb from mac-mini to my new macbook pro ? iLife 11 does not have iWeb and I really want to use it to update my website on my new macbook Pro instead of Mac mini

Can I move my iWeb from mac-mini to my new macbook pro ? iLife 11 does not have iWeb and I really want to use it to update my website on my new macbook Pro instead of Mac mini

There is no license required for iWeb. Just do a Wyodor suggested and you'll be ready to go. If you're running Lion however, consider the following:
In Lion the Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and hit the Enter button - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.
To open your domain file in Lion or to switch between multiple domain files Cyclosaurus has provided us with the following script that you can make into an Applescript application with Script Editor. Open Script Editor, copy and paste the script below into Script Editor's window and save as an application.
do shell script "/usr/bin/defaults write com.apple.iWeb iWebDefaultsDocumentPath -boolean no"delay 1
tell application "iWeb" to activate
You can download an already compiled version with this link: iWeb Switch Domain.
Just launch the application, find and select the domain file you want to open and it will open with iWeb. It modifies the iWeb preference file each time it's launched so one can switch between domain files.
WARNING: iWeb Switch Domain will overwrite an existing Domain.sites2 file if you select to create a new domain in the same folder. So rename your domain files once they've been created to something other than the default name.
