No access to wifi on iMac though have access on IPad and iPhone

I have a Mac operating on OS X version 10.9.2 - it access internet via wifi (Beikin) in the office smoothly but cannot do so when I brought it home.  Its alert : no internet connection. My ipad and iPhone though has no problem accessing via tplink router.
I have tried restarting both the imac and the router - but no effect.
Can anyone help to advice what should I do next ?

Have you clicked on the home network name in the wi-fi list in the menu and signed in to it?
How was your office wi-fi configured? If it was done other than the usual connect automatically through DCHP or other special configs, then you may need to add another wi-fi connection in your network settings for your home wi-fi connection.

  • HT1689 I have given my iPad and iPhone to my wife, she has synchronized with her Apple ID but it keeps going back to my Apple ID when she tries to purchase something in iTunes. Do I need to deregister the device and register it in her Apple ID?

    I have given my iPad and iPhone to my wife, she has synchronized with her Apple ID but it keeps going back to my Apple ID when she tries to purchase something in iTunes. Do I need to deregister the device and register it in her Apple ID?

    What id shows at the bottom of the Featured tabs in the App Store apps on the two devices ? If they still show your account id then try tapping on the id and log out of it and your wife can then try logging in with her account.
    Any content that is already on them that was downloaded by your account will remain tied to your account, so only your account will be able to download updates to your apps.

  • I have an ipod, ipad, and iphone. ilike to use imessage on all of them but i dont want messages to appear on the devices i am not currently using. nor do i want to have to keep a saparate account or id for eCH OF THEM. WHAT IS THE FIX?

    i have an ipod, ipad, and iphone. ilike to use imessage on all of them but i dont want messages to appear on the devices i am not currently using. nor do i want to have to keep a saparate account / id for each device  how do i fix the settings on each so that with the same ID / login I can chech me emails, share contacts etc, be able to use i messenger on each without the whole conversation automatically beiing picked up by my other devices? some conversations just arent intended to be shared!

    Turn it into the local police department with an explanation as to who you tried to contact and what they told you. That's the only safe procedure, as otherwise the owner could report the iPod as stolen, even though you tried to return it, and get you into trouble.
    Regards.

  • I'm about to purchase Lion.  My husband and I each have a desktop, iPad and iPhone.  We currently use one Apple ID for iPad/phone purchases.  Can we purchase 2 copies of Lion with one Apple ID?

    I'm about to purchase Lion.  My husband and I each have a desktop, iPad and iPhone.  We currently use one Apple ID for iPad/phone purchases.  Can we purchase 2 copies of Lion with one Apple ID or do we have to use different Apple IDs for the purchase?  If we use the different Apple IDs can we still use the same ID for all of our purchases.

    And just in case you were wondering, installing one purchased copy on all the Macs you own is specifically called out as allowed in the Mac OS X Lion license.
    If you do not want to download multiple times, just copy the Applications -> Install Lion app to a safe place BEFORE you do the first install.  Then copy that copy to any Mac you own where you want to install Lion.

  • TS1324 I have synced my Ipad and Iphone and my Icloud storage is full now, I want to unsync so I can use both of their Icloud storages separately, how can I do that?!!

    Your iCloud storage is linked to your Apple ID, you can't unlink the devices unless you use separate Apple ID's for each device. That's not a good idea as you will have to pay for the same purchases twice on each device and you don't want to do that.
    Backup with iTunes where the size of you backup is only limited by the a amount of available space that you have on your computer, buy more storage in iCloud, or .... and this makes no sense either but it is a possibility ... remove one of the devices from iCloud and backup one in iTunes. If you are going to backup with iTunes, backup both devices with iTunes and leave iCloud alone.
    You don't need to backup with iCloud if you backup with iTunes and you can still download your past purchases without having to actually use iCloud for backups.

    I Have a new wifi router and have set up my iPad / iPhone and wireless printer correctly  to the new router but I can't print from the iPad and iPhone. It keeps saying ' no AirPrint printer found'. Help please!

    Start with the most basic thing that you can try. Unplug the router from power for about 30 seconds, and restart the printer and the iPad and plug the router back into power.

  • Getting email and calender to sync to iMac like it does with iPad and iPhone

    Ok here is the problem we currently have a bigpond email account (Australia) and also use calendar associated with that email address and this has been working fine for well over 14 months. Earlier this year we got a iphone 5 and also set up the email and calendar on that device so that the 2 devices synched and they do no problems. The 2 devices are logged into iCloud.
    Note both devices required the setting up of email using the Hotmail option to take advantage of the new infrastructure Bigpond have with Microsoft Live.
    About a month ago we replaced our old PC with a new iMac. When setting up the iMac we have set up the bigpond email and also logged that iMac into icloud using the same ID as the other two devices. When setting up the email it was noticably different in that the hotmail option to set up the account didnt exist but anyway I got the email account set up regardless and emails are working. Calender entries on the other hand are not. I dont seem to be able to get the calendar entries that synch across iPad and iPhone to sync with the iMac.
    We cannot also get folders within email to sych across the devices either. I believe that this has something to do with POP vs IMAP ????.
    I really would like to get email and calendar to sync across all 3 devices using the bigpond email address.
    I spoke with Apple without much luck as they seemed to believe that bigpond email is using POP and thus cant synch folders across devices and couldnt help me with the calendar not synching across the devices.
    Can anyone help me ? Point me in the direction of useful links ?

    Re Outlook for Mac - can anyone confirm that this will acheive my aims to have emails and associated folders within email to synch across all devices and that calender will also sycn across all devices using iCloud ?

  • HT1420 How can you deauthorise devices from an iPad? I no longer have the computer which is associated with my account and I'm trying to add my new laptop but all i have is iPod iPad and iPhone that are associated with that account.

    I had an old apple ID and now I have a new one. I made many purchases in my old ID and I'm trying to transfer that information to my iPad and iPhone however, it won't let me connect my new laptop so I can make those changes. It says I have 5 devices but I don't have 2 of those old devices. The only ones i have are my iphone ipad and ipod but it looks like i can deauthorize all devices on those.
    What do i do?!?!?!?!?

    Deauthorize all then authorize the active computers.
    ipods/ipads/iphones are not authorized at all.  Authorization applies only to computers.

  • HT201317 How do I get all the photos and videos I already have on my ipad and iphone over to photo stream to bring up on my PC

    CAn you please tell me how I can get all the photos and video from my iPad and iPhone that aren't in photo stream so I can get them from my iCloud onto my PC please.

    If you don't physically have the phone then there is no way for you to get the photos or videos.
    Have you been backing up your phone?  http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766  if so, you can restore that backup to your new phone and get all your contents back.
    did you fail to import pics to your computer as you would a digital camera? http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083

  • Bluetooth on iMac doesn't pair with iPad and iPhone!

    I bought a new iMac 27'', and I tried to pair my iPad and iPhone with it,but it wouldn't work,how was that happened and how could I do?
    Thank you, everybody!!!

    I tried to pair my iPad and iPhone with it
    For what purpose?
    The iPhone can only be paired with a computer for internet tethering.
    The iPad cannot be paired with a computer at all, only headsets, stereo headphones and keyboards.

  • My calendars have disappeared from iPad and iphone

    I downloaded ios5 yesterday and synced iPhone and iPad.  Changed settings to synch with iCloud- now have no calendars on iPad or iPhone.  They are on my computer on the iCloud.

    Are you using POP3 or IMAP on all the devices?  

  • HT3819 I have synced my ipad and iphone 5 to itunes and all my songs appear in the device library but i cannot ply all of the songs unless via home sharing. How can i ensure that my libraries appear on each device as the syncing process seems to be failin

    Syncing problems.
    How can I sync my iphone 5 and ipad to ensure that i dont need to use home sharing to access all of my music library?

    I don't think I have made myself clear... I have recently upgraded my iPhone 4 to a 5 so everything was set up to sync with no problems at all. I transferred everything across to my new device by iCloud and everything appears as it was on my old device including on the face of it my music library. However, I cannot play all of the songs in fact the majority! When at home I can access the entire library via home sharing but that is no use away from the house. I never had this problem with iPhone 4 and although I am automatically syncing the device to iTunes it is not working. If I try to play songs via the device it skips until it finds a song that cAn be played and if I try and play the device via the laptop/iTunes an ! Type signal appears and I cannot play the song!
    Any ideas re solutions would be appreciated???

  • How can I print a list of the apps I have on my iPad and iPhone ?

    I had to reinstall all my apps when I upgraded to the new iOS - while some were listed in my 'purchased' list a lot weren't and I had to go through all my iPhone apps to see what was missing. And my folders all vanished as well!  Any hints or tips before I upgrade the iPhone ?
    Sheila Brownin

    Take a photo of each page of your Phone's Home screen with your iPad's camera. This will not only give you a record of the apps but what page of the screen you had them on!
    I do not have an iPhone but if it gives the facility of storing multlple apps in a folder then make sure that they are ungrouped before taking the photographs.
