New modem and now server cant be accessed

Changed modem today from BT to ntl - internet etc all working ok.
But since the change the server cannot be accessed.
Go > Connect to Server ..... never connects.
At the server...
Try to connect to Server preferences.... get 'Server cannot be found on the network"
In System Preferences Network pane on left is...
Ethernet - Connected. (Looks OK)
lPv4 - not connected. (The pane on the right shows expected server info - i hit connect and it prompts for password but just says server does not exist.)
This is the second time this has happened. In frustration last time I just reinstalled OSX Server (It is Leopard version)
There has to be an easier remedy.
Anyone help?

Changing the modem shouldn't be a problem. Try resetting the modem - power it down and let it rest a moment, then power it back up again. Some need more power-off time than others for the reset to be effective. While it is powered down, disconnect the coaxial cable as well. Literally unscrew it and leave it disconnected for a moment or two.
Don't do anything with your Extreme just yet.

  • TS3682 I backed up my ipad to the cloud as it had a broken screen so I swaped it out for a new one and now I cant restore because the new Ipad has IOS 6 and my back up is 6.1!  This is what I get for buying an Ipad twice in a week because of a broken scre

    I backed up my ipad to the cloud as it had a broken screen so I swaped it out for a new one and now I cant restore because the new Ipad has IOS 6 and my back up is 6.1!  This is what I get for buying an Ipad twice in a week because of a broken screen? $500 the first buy and then another $299 plus tax for the swaped out one that I can't restore with my backup data.

    I assume that you will have to set up as new since it will not let you restore from the backup. Then after you set it up, you can restore from the iCloud backup. The backup should not disappear be use you are setting this device up as new. Your backup should still be in iCloud.
    However, after you activate the iPd and update the software, you will have to erase the device in order to restore from the Cloud backup, that is the only way to get to the iCloud backup.
    Copied from the article that linked you to this discussion ....
    Resolution
    Update your device to the latest version of iOS to be able to restore the backup.

  • I just hooked up a airport express as my new router and now I cant play videos on my imac or ipad. PLEASE HELP.

    I just hooked a new airport express and now I cant play videos on my imac or ipad. I do have a sprint airave hooked up to the system. I dont know if i have all the cables hooked up right but everything works except playing videos on either device. PLEASE HELP. Thank you

    Yea rudegar its weird. I dont have sound either. I have read to put airave behind router but I cant find anywhere how to hook all the wires up. I have 2 ports in the back of the airport express(1 wan and 1 ethernet), 1 port on my modem and 3 ports on the airave(wan and 2 lan). I dont know which cable goes where, wan ,lan, ethernet, back of computer etc. Im an idiot when it comes to all this stuff but Im sure its simple fix but obviously not for me. I read people put modem to router to airave but dont say which port to put them in.

  • TS2972 enable my tv entertainment provider on my home network - then updated "a newer" modem and now home sharing just stopped home sharing

    Only 2 changes to my home network set up: #1 - I installed a "new model modem" recommended by my ISP provided, and #2 I had my tv entertainment provider install their modem to the TV receiver box for accessing my home network and now home sharing will not home share. 
    I original had enabled, and all devices are still set up for home share - that's laptops, iphones, ipods, and ipads.
    Any suggestions?  I understand these modem most have ports 123, 3689, and 5353 opened for itunes and the home sharing.
    Now I am stumped on how to verify these settings.
    Is it possible for me to verify these ports on these modems; how?  Or is it just wiser to contact these providers and have their technicans investigate this issue?  OR is it possible I am missing an even easier route to cure this ailment I have created unintentionally in my quest for connectivity between all things electronically capable and on the same secure network?
    Oh, using PC w/WDW7 if this helps, and one other annoying detail, which confuses this entire issue of mine, the Home Share, pops on for a few minutes, and then disappears.  So yes, I am confused, it is there, and then it is not!.

    Scan the Support Community sites. Apple TV losing connection is prevalent. The many postings point out the problem occurs with Apple TV1,2and 3; with different brands of router including Airport Extreme; from current and past versions of iTunes; after varying periods of working well.....minutes, hours, days; losing connection with Home Sharing and loosing Airplay; whether the router and Apple TV are in same room or separated by distance; after trying innumerable posted 'fixes'; after exchanging for a new Apple TV.
    Readers, please don't post a fix until you check it works for atleast a week.

  • I transferred documents from older computer to new one and now I cant open.  The computer tells me power pc applications no longer supported.  Is there a way to fix this so I can open?

    HI, any help would be greatly apperciated.  I purchased a new iMAC this year and transferred my old docments from very old iMAC (flying saucer looking thing) and now I am trying to open them and cant.  My computer tells me that power pc applications are no longer supported.  Is there a way to save, change or move documents so I can open?  Email to someone else?  Thanks!

    As you've found out, Lion dropped support for PowerPC applications. What type of files are you trying to open? What PowerPC application are you using to try to work with them?  Many have had Office 2004 fail to load after migrating to Lion.

  • We have a new Trend and now we cant do internet banking with firefox, how do we change to firefox proxy settings.

    when we contacted Trend they said we were set up with Outlook Express as our proxy server and would need to change our proxy server settings if we wanted to use Firefox. Before we updated our trend there were no problems and Firefox had always been great. We have tried updating to the latest version, but no joy.

  • I got a new modem and imac says connected with the airport, but cant get a web page to come up on either safari or firefox

    I started having internet problems with all my devices in the house, ipod, imac, pc laptop, tablets, etc... found out after being on the phone with comcast for hours, they determined my modem that they supply was bad. So I have the new modem now and very simple to install it and get everything working. However, I cannot get online with a web browser of any sort on my imac. which had no issues before.
    All my devices in the house work perfectly now with the new modem and my speeds are great, and even the imac (with the airporter) states it is connected. but I cant do anything pertaining to the internet. I have spent hours on the tech line with comcast and they cant seem to find the issue and said it is with my Imac, even though it was working fine before.
    Does anyone have any ideas, is there simply something I'm missing, please help. As I stated before, everything else that we own works great and has great connection. and the Imac states it is connected, but mail, internet, non of that works...??????

  • Just got a new router and now my ipad 1 says it can not connect to the server, even though it says that it is connected to wi fi

    Just put in a new router and now my ipad 1 will not connect to the server.  It is connected to the wifi though.  Does this mean my ipad is too old?  Any suggestions on what to do?

    You may not really be connected to your WiFi network.
    Your router may not have given your iPad a valid IP address. Go to Settings > Wifi > your network name and touch the "i" to the right to see the network details. If the IP address starts with 169 or is blank then your router didn't provide an IP address and you won't be able to access the Internet.
    Sometimes the fix can be as simple as restarting your router (remove power for 30 seconds and restart). Next, reset network settings on your iPad (Settings > General > Reset > Reset network settings) and then attempt to connect. In other cases it might be necessary to update the router's firmware with the latest from the manufacturer's support web pages.
    If you need more help please give more details on your network, i.e., your router make, model and version, the wifi security being used (WEP, WPA, WPA2), etc.

  • I just changed my residence to the US and now I cant register my new US credit card on itunes cause the state list doesnt match to the US states, what should I do?

    I just changed my residence to the US and now I cant register my new US credit card on itunes cause the state list doesnt match to the US states, what should I do?

    Your credit card info, billing address must be the same country as the iTunes store country you registering.
    For example, you can’t have a credit card from a U.S. bank with  a U.S. billing address registered in the iTunes store for China.
    I tried to change my payment information too, but it happened the same, I can change the information but when I get to the state part, it only shows the other country states
    Remove all payment info and save it.
    Then change the iTunes store country to U.S., add a U.S. credit card with a U.S. billing address.
    As previously suggested, if this does not work, contact iTunes store support.

  • I have an iphone 4 that I recently upgraded to IOS 7, and now I cant drag music to it.  It says "preparing to update" eternally.  Weird thing is... I have an iphone 3s that is IOS 6, and it takes new music all day.  arg.

    I have an iphone 4 that I recently upgraded to IOS 7, and now I cant drag music to it.  It says "preparing to update" eternally.  Weird thing is... I have an iphone 3s that is IOS 6, and it takes new music all day.  arg.
    I have tried direct connecting the iphone 4, via wifi, everything.  I hate itunes with a passion, but it seems to be a necessary evil.  I dont know why I would have no trouble with my iphone 3.  I am using the same technique for both phones.  Find the music I want in the library and drag it to the iphone.  Works on IOS 6, not IOS 7.
    WHat else should I try?

    Hi jeffmbellucci,
    If you are having issues dragging music to your iPhone 4 after a recent upgrade to iOS 7, you may want to verify that the phone is still set to "Manually manage music and videos." You may find the following article helpful:
