Office Network cannot detect MBP

Hi,
My office is using Windows Server. I managed to connect to my server drives but the centralised printer and scanner cannot detect my MBP in the configuration setting. Without being detected on the centralised scanner, I cannot scan documents to my MBP.
Thanks.

Time capsule connect to existing network cannot connect MBP via ethernet

I have set up my time capsule via Airport utility to "connect to existing network", which is my Netcomm wireless router (which is my DHCP server). MBP connects perfectly to time capsule if wireless is on, presumably via the Netcomm. But if I plug the MBP into an ethernet port on the time capsule it is not recognized and it gets a self assigned ip 169.254.x.y.
Airport utility is very restrictive in the options and is basically useless in resolving the obvious ip conflict. Is there any trick to getting both the wireless and ethernet to work ? It should not be this difficult....
The time capsule 2T disk is useless as a backup device over wireless.

Is that the exact wording of the option you chose? In AirPort Utility I see options of "Create a wireless network", "Join a wireless network", and "Extend a wireless network". (Perhaps the difference is due to language usage.) The option to "Join a Wireless Network" is only useful for sharing disks and printers. It doesn't support Ethernet ports.
if I plug the MBP into an ethernet port on the time capsule it is not recognized
With some options there's a checkbox to "Allow Ethernet Clients". If you see that, try it.

AirPort Works Fine with Mac OS, but cannot detect Networks on XP

I've used Boot Camp to install XP on my MBP and installed the necessary drivers etc. The Broadcom 802.11n wireless adapter does not detect any wireless networks when it's booted up with Windows XP, but works fine when booted up with OS X. I thought it was a problem with the driver so I reinstalled it but it still cannot detect any wireless networks. The message says "no available wireless networks found in range".
If networks can be detected using the Mac OS, why is it that when i switch to windows it fails? I'm new at this so can someone enlighten me please?

This is rather amazing in as much as I have read at least 100 posts in the past 6-8 months from users with just the opposite issue complaining about Airport not working on Leopard but on XP.

Cannot detect the Airport network

Hi: Suddenly my Ti G4 cannot detect the airport basestation as my other computers can. Sometimes the airport signal is detected and after some time it disappears. I've tried to use the airport utilities from this computer and cannot detect the network. I removed the botom cover of my computer, and all connections seems to be OK. Checking the apple system profiler, shows the card installed but no network available. Is there any test to check if the card is broken? Is there something else to check?

Ditto on Henry's advice about swapping cards. My PB was having some intermittent problems with a new AEBS I bought. Then I was in Boston and the PB wireless was flaky. It would have a full signal, then drop instantly to zero, then come right back. Since there was an Apple store within 2 blocks, I went down there to troubleshoot. Interestingly, the Apple Store connection was perfect. But the tech swapped out my card and tested the old one. He said it was "starting" to go bad and suggested I get a new one. I did, and the hotel connection was fine. I sold my old card to another mac guy and it's been working perfectly with his home system.
Now a year later I'm in CA and the hotel wireless was flaky. Exact same symptoms. I had my electronics screwdrivers along (don't ask), so opened the case and checked all connections. Then I drove over to the Burlingame store and had no problems getting on their network.
I now think it's really a problem with the Hilton Family Hotels wireless routers. The cards seem to work perfectly elsewhere. Don't know why my home system was bad. So long story short, go bribe your local genius (if possible) and get them to check your card.
So long story

My iphone cannot detect network

Hi Nwobodo,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I know that it can be frustrating when you are not getting cellular service on your iPhone the way you would expect. In this situation I would recommend working through the troubleshooting steps in the attached article.
If you see No Service in the status bar of your iPhone or iPad - Apple Support
Have a great day,

Yes, I think most of us do understand what open source software is. It sounds as if you don't. Here's some information:
Open-source software (OSS) is computer software that is available in source code form: the source code and certain other rights normally reserved forcopyright holders are provided under an open-source license that permits users to study, change, improve and at times also to distribute the software.
Open source software is very often developed in a public, collaborative manner. Open-source software is the most prominent example of open-sourcedevelopment and often compared to (technically defined) user-generated content or (legally defined) open content movements.

Yes, Tom Wu of Stanford wrote a paper on something called Secure Remote Access Protocol. It's a form of Asymetric Key Exchange and has nothing to do with hacking anything. It's actually intended to protect data.

IBook G3 Cannot Detect Networks -- Other Computers Can

My boss's iBook G3 (dual-USB) cannot detect networks. Often the airport icon will not even load up in the menubar, and sometimes it loads, but shows no available networks. We are in a building with dozens of networks, but nothing shows up. Two other computers are accessing our network via Airport just fine. Any thoughts? This is driving us nuts! Any help would be much appreciated.
(By the way, this iBook has successfully connected to our network in the past. Yesterday and today it has just started misbehaving. Thanks again for your help.)

Thanks so much for taking the time to reply! The network settings have not been changed, so I don't think that it is an issue of b vs. g.
After leaving the iBook asleep for about an hour, I woke it and managed to get a signal (a few other available networks also showed up). Then I put it back to sleep for a few minutes to see if I would get a signal again. When I woke it up, the signal flashed from 4 bars to none, and the computer froze. Does this fact, and the fact that the Airport icon in the menu bar has been very, very slow to load (about 5 minutes) suggest that there is something wrong with the Airport software on the iBook?
Thanks for your help!

I purchased recently an ipad 2 wi-fi 3G and the device cannot detect any network, I turned the wi-fi on and reset the network, but still cannot detect the network

dear friend
I recently purchased an ipad 2 wi-fi 3G. the device cannot detect any network, I do not know why. I tried to reset the network, but without any vail. could you please tell me what the setps so I can solve the problem. Another problem, I connected the ipad device with cable to my pc, but the pc is not recognizing the device. The pc only shows the pictures on the ipad.

lets start easy so the we can understand where you are in the process. Have you set the ipad up using itunes? if not, you need to do that first. make sure your computer has the current i tunes version loaded, then plug the pad into the computer. What kind of computer you using, mac or pc?
If you haven't set it up, then it does not know to look for any networks.

MBP 13'' Cannot detect battery & battery indicator light won't off

This morning, I found my mbp cannot detect the battery and the green battery indicator lights on the side of the mac won't switch off even if I turn off the computer and disconnect the power supply. Also with the problem that the mac cannot detect the battery, mbp cannot be switch on without power supply. I just got my mbp on Feb 2010 and I really enjoy it. These problems worried me a lot. So I went to apple retail store straight away. The staff has a quick look over the battery information on "About this mac" and updated the newest software, and suggests me to make a booking with Genius Bar. Then I went home. I did some searching on google and read some information about SMC and hardware testing. I did the hardware testing first. With a quick scan the computer provide an error code:
4SNS/1/40000000:TB3T-128.000
And then I did the SMC procedure. This is where I solve the battery and indicator light problem. Now, the mac can detect the battery, the indicator lights return to normal and the battery can be charged. Seems all fine. But do you think I should cancel the booking with Genius Bar since the problem is solved? Or do you suggest to still bring into store and have a check? Thank you.

Reset the SMC (System Management Controller) and advise us if that helped.

Randomly monitor small office network

Looking for a user-friendly, dummy-proof article on creating a small office network from a total of four Mac's (3 iMacs, one Air), allowing the administrator to randomly monitor without detection the real-time activities taking place on the other two machines. Triple points for iOS monitoring capabilities, as well

Hello, rjbm_exact.
You definitely need a managed switch and a Cisco Small Business (200 or 300 series) can meet your requirements. You can setup separate VLAN to segregate user access level. Are you also looking at expanding your wireless (guest access)?
Let me know if you need more assistance or e-mail ([email protected]) me directly. Kind regards.

TS1538 Hi, I have the problem which iTunes cannot detect my iPhone 4s. I tried the steps you have provided in your troubleshooting, but it won't work for me because the Apple Mobile Devilce is perfectly installed on my windows.

Hi, I have the problem which iTunes cannot detect my iPhone 4s. I tried the steps you have provided in your troubleshooting, but it won't work for me because the Apple Mobile Devilce is perfectly installed on my windows. However, the driver "Microsoft teredo Tunneling adapter" has a yellow exclamation mark, which i believe means it's not installed correctly or something is wrong with it. This driver is under the Network Adapters (Please see picture below).
This is what happens when I connect my iPhone 4s to my laptop (Windows 7 Starter 32-bit)
1. The phone charges it's battery
2. I can open it in My Computer and import/export media files.
In iTunes
3. It start to sync until step 3 then stops.
4. The iPhone option with an arrow appears beside the iTunes Store, but when the arrow is clicked it disappears.
I hope you can provide me a solution for this problem.
Thanks,
Ralph

Hi ralphagir,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
For your iTunes issue with it not recognizing your iPhone, I would go ahead and suggest deleting iTunes and all of its components from your Windows computer and installing fresh.
Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923
Remove iTunes and related components from the Control Panel
Use the Control Panel to uninstall iTunes and related software components in the following order and then restart your computer:
iTunes
Apple Software Update
Apple Mobile Device Support
Bonjour
Apple Application Support (iTunes 9 or later)
Important: Uninstalling these components in a different order, or only uninstalling some of these components may have unintended affects.
As far as the arrow button that you click and the iPhone disappears, it sounds like you may be clicking on the eject button. Please take a look at the following article for information on the eject button in iTunes.

Ios6.0.1 = Problem with office network desktop computers

Hi,
We have a few iPhones connected onto our office computer network via a WIFI router.
While those iPhones were running IOS 5, we had no issues.
Now, since IOS 6 - and even IOS 6.0.1 is running on those iPhones, I have 2 iPhones causing network issues to DESKTOP COMPUTERS when connected to the office network through WIFI.
Basically, when those iPhones are connected to our network via WIFI, always the same 2 desktop computers then have network connectivity issues.
Those computers have the following IP address:
Computer A: 192.168.1.92
Computer B: 192.168.1.103
When let's say iPhone A is connected to the WIFI router, then Computer A starts to have network issue - ping does not work anymore - or only randomly - user cannot printed - computer cannot connect to Windows Shares anymore.
I have found about that by changing the IP address of the computer the problem was then solved.
I have then check the IP address used by the iPhone A ... it is not the original one used by the Computer A ... It is a different IP address provided by our DHCP server ... so the problem is not there (?).
I then ran an nmap request on 192.168.1.92 while Computer A had issue ...and found on that the MAC ADDRESS reported was not the one of Computer A - but the one of iPhone A !!!
So, when iPhone A connects to the network via WIFI - it seems to confuse the switches despites not having the same IP address ...
If I ask my collegue to switch the WIFI off on his iPhone, then the problem disappear straight away ... No more issue with the computer and its IP address 192.168.1.92 ... and nmap then reports the correct computer MAC ADDRESS.
The same problem happens with Computer B and iPhone B ...
We have RESET NETWORK settings on both iPhones but this did now solved the issue.
Can someone help out ?
Thanks & regards
GL

I'd say the scope of your dhcp server is probably overlapping your fixed ip addresses on your desktops
Could be due to the lease time the reason your not seeing the ip addresses on the devices you expect
Could also be a rouge dhcp server somewhere
