Only IE is able to access the internet; no other applications can access internet
I recently upgraded my original Hitachi 160GB hard drive on my Lenovo IdeaPad Y510 to a WD 320GB hard drive, and cloned my original hard drive image to the new hard drive using Acronis True Image WD Edition's Disc Cloning utility. I had the utility resize the original partitions proportionally. Everything else seems to have transferred correctly to my new hard drive, but I find that ONLY Internet Explorer is able to access the internet, although I can ping my network printer, the other computers on my home wireless network, and even other IP addresses on the internet such as www.google.com, etc.
I had removed my previous ZoneAlarm Free Firewall before doing the hard drive upgrade; it appears to have been conflicting with my Mozilla Firefox and Thunderbird applications, causing them to hang up and then not close down properly. I am currently using only the Windows Firewall and Windows Defender, along with AVG 9.0.814 Free Antivirus, SpyBot S&D 1.6.2.0 and Spywareblaster 4.3. I also used to use AdAware Free Edition, but had to uninstall it as I have not been able to update it to the newest version successfully.
Is there something in the Windows Vista Home Premium OS I have on my machine that might be causing this problem? It is funny that ONLY Internet Explorer is able to access the internet now.
Yes I do, and even with them checked to allow access (i.e., as an exception), it does not help. I have tried all of the MS help about the problem, but they refer me to my machine's manufacturer for support, since my copy of Windows Vista came with it. I cannot even use my DVD NeXtCopy software, as it requires access to the internet too, and even after re-installing it, I cannot activate the new installation because it cannot access the activation server!
I hope someone can help me. Upgrading to this new hard drive should not be so disastrous!
Regards and thanks for trying to help!

Time Capsule only allows one Macbook be on the internet at a time!
So far no one even at Apple Care has been able to solve this problem.
My wife and i have brand new Macbooks. Mine, the latest 2.4Ghz black model bought in the UK and her's the 2.1Ghz bought in the US.
We both used the Orange livebox as our wireless router and it worked seamlessly (albeit only when security was turned off) until i purchased a 1TB Time Capsule.
I managed to get the TC up as our wireless router with the Livebox as the modem, but, bizarrely, it will only allow ONE computer to be on the internet at a time - and giving preference to mine. Basically, the second i turn my airport on - she loses connection! It's like my computer ***** the internet away from hers.
If hers is the only computer on in the house then it works perfectly.
I have spent hours on the phone to Apple Care and changed a number of the settings within Airport Utility, but the longest we got both computer running on the internet together was for about 20 minutes when i switched to Radio Mode 802.11n only (5 Ghz). For a moment we thought the problem was solved until i put the phone down and low an behold, she lost her connection once more.
Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance.Don't know what an Orange livebox is, but I will treat it as a DSL modem and assume the ISP uses a DHCP server. Make sure you have connected the modem to the TC WAN port.
Open AirPort Utility, select the TC, click on Manual Setup, click on the Internet tab.
- is 'Connect Using:' set to 'Ethernet' - set to this if not.
- is 'Configure IPv4:' set to 'Using DHCP' - set to this if not.
- is 'Ethernet WAN Port:' set to 'Automatic (Default)' - set to this if not.
- is 'Connection Sharing:' set to 'Share a public IP address' - set to this if not (if set to Bridge Mode then only one computer will be able to use the internet).
Click 'Update and wait for TC to restart.
Check the network settings on the client computers. Go to System Preferences/Network/AirPort:
- click on the 'Network Name:' roll-button, select 'Join Other Network...', enter 'Network Name and select the security type you are using, and finally, enter your Password and click 'Join'.
If ISP uses DHCP:
- click on 'Advanced', TCP/IP and confirm that 'Configure IPv4:' is set to 'Using DHCP', click 'OK'.
- click the 'Apply' button and exit System Preferences.
May also be wise to Repair Permissions using Disk Utility and to reboot your network hardware:
1. Turn power off to ISP modem and the TC, and shutdown computer - leave power off for 10 minutes.
2. Turn on modem and wait for it to complete its test cycle. Then turn on the TC.
3. Turn on computer and check your internet connection. -
No matter where I go, as soon as I turn on the Internet on my new Mac Book Pro, everyone else is no longer able to use the Internet. How can I fix this? I received it as a gift for college, but its hard to do research when everyone constantly yells at me to get off because they can no longer continue what they're doing.
<Edited By Host>" how can I sync my iphone to my mac book without losing all the music and pictures on it?"
You cannot. Copy everything you want form the old computer to the new one, then sync it.
it basically says you have to erase your iphone to sync to a new itunes!
Correct Iphone will sync, or manually manage, with one and only one computer/library at a time. Syncing, or manually managing, to another will indeed erase the current content. -
Other members of my family are able to access my ".me" e-mail account. How do I set my account so that only I am able to access that account?
Are you sharing the same iCloud account with your family members and they all have access to the password?
If so, that's why. iCloud accounts are not designed to be shared if you want to keep your email, contacts, calendars etc. seperate. -

I reinstalled operating system software on my MacBook Air (Yosemite 10.10.3) and tried reinstalling Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro. I was able to install the software into my Applications folder but I was unable to enter the serial number or go any further with the installation. When I click on the Adobe Acrobat icon in the Applications folder, nothing happens.
Hi Tom,
kindly check the System requirements | Acrobat family of products—older versions (XI, X, 9)
For serial number message try:
Error "Invalid serial number" | Acrobat 9 | CS4

Could JMF share the webcam with other applications?
Greetings,
There is an applet which captures images from the webcam using JMF. While this applet is running, other applications can't capture images from the same webcam anymore.
Would it be possible to set JMF in such a way to allow webcam sharing.
Thank you.Unlikely
When your app connects to the webcam it does so by requesting one of the several formats that the driver is capable of providing
The driver s/w then no longer accepts requests until your app finishes
So you have 2 options
1) Get hold of the Driver source code & see if you can modify it to provide a multiplexed (or buffered) multicast stream service to wich any application can connect to
2) You can build a Java Service that does the above, then write you app to make use of that service
The only problem will be what format to choose that suits all apps -

I need a new phone and iPod, would I be able to use an iPhone as a phone and iPod, without having to purchase the internet date plan?
You cannot do this. iPhones have to be activated with a service plan before any of the features, including the iPod features can be used.

Mifi 4510 and not being able to use the internet with my Ipod touch
My mifi 4510 will not allow my iPod Touch to connect to the internet. In settings it sees my device and for about 2 seconds a dot will appear of the screen of the mifi4510. The dot goes away and it keeps searching endlessly to connect to my iPod Touch. I have talked to the first level of tech support and they tell me that the iPhone and iPad are compatible with the 4510, but not the iTouch. I can take my iTouch to any other wireless network, enter the key and the network will connect flawlessly to my device. First level of tech support also asked if I had the latest updates to my iPod Touch The answer is yes. If in fact Verizon is blocking the iPod Touch from going out onto the internet, can anyone give me the rationale as to why this would be true.
AJO65Hello,
I am not aware of any limitations on the MiFi that would back up Verizon's story. If the device is Wi-Fi compatible then it should be able to connect to the MiFi 4510L. The only reason why a device might not be able to connect would be due to wireless passwords not matching or the MiFi broadcasting in a mode which is incompatible with that device.
Here are some quick suggestions which may help:
Change the 802.11/Wireless Mode
1. Navigate to http://mifi.admin
2. Enter "admin" in the textbox in the upper right hand corner
3. Click the Wi-Fi tab
4. Change the 802.11 mode from B+G+N to B+G
5. Click Apply
6. Test your connection
Remove the Wireless password
1. Navigate to http://mifi.admin
2. Enter "admin" in the textbox in the upper right hand corner
3. Click the WiFi tab
4. Change your Selected Profile to Open Access
5. Click Apply
6. Test your connection
