OSX apps unable to talk to internet while Skype & Chrome can
Downright bizarre: OSX apps (Safari, Mail, Maps, Contacts) and some non-OSX apps, too, are unable to talk to the internet, while Skype and Chrome work fine.
Other computers (still on Mavericks) and iOS (using 8.1) operate fine. Mine is misbehaving under WiFi or Ethernet connections. Deleted and re-added the WiFi entries. Deleted & re-added the WiFi connection type. Deleted and added "network locations". Got renewed DHCP addrresses. Turned Firewall on and off.
Update: still same condition, even after doing multiple fixes with Apple on the phone (Disk Permissions, etc.), AND a full reinstall of Yosemite via Internet Recovery (Restart > CMD-R).
If perhaps it will help someone else, the attempts to fix per the Apple rep on the phone included:
- As I use Time Machine as my WiFi, added two DNS entries 8.8.8.1 and 8.8.8.4.
Although it doesn't matter, I am on a hotel WiFi right now (using Chrome) and still the same problem.

IPhone 4s with ios 6 shows full wifi signal but can't access to the internet while other idevice can
Hi everyone,
I updated my iphone 4s to ios 6 a few months ago and there was no problem until I change my sim card to other carriers last two days. This second sim card is the same sim card that I used it earlier this year with no problem. But the problem I face is when my iphone goes to sleep mode I realised that I can't receive any push notification from imessage, Whatsapp, and Line. When the phone is awake the wifi signal is back and I have to go to each application in order to get the message. I have tried the following methods but it didn't work: reset all network settings, restore as new iphone, push home and power button together, switch off my iphone, turn on airplane mode, and even change my router. At the moment I have restored my iphone as new for the 5th times.
Now the problem is worsen, after the phone is sleep for about 5 minutes and when I awake my iphone it shows the wifi signal. But I can't access to the internet at all. It shows no working internet on Whatsapp. Safari can't load any web page, the weather app can't update temperature etc. I have to switch off and switch on wifi in setting menu so that I can use the internet. And when I leave my iphone four about 5 - 10 minuetes then the problem start again. While I can't access to the internet on my iphone 4s, I used my dad's iphone 4s with ios 5.0.1 and it works just fine with the internet. My laptop can also access to the internet with the same wifi network but not my iphone.
Does anybody know what's going on with my iphone 4s? Is it the bug from IOS 6 or my iphone is broken? Please help me.
Thank you.Any update will cause problems for a few users. And those users will rush here and post "the sky is falling" stories about their experience. The 99.99% of people who have no problems after an update won't bother to post here; indeed, most of them don't even know ASC exists. FWIW, I had no problems with iOS 7 on my 4S. Your problem is most likely not related to iOS 6, but you should probably update anyway.

Apps unable to connect to internet
I am unable to connect to the internet with iChat, Adium, or Colloquy (IRC Client). Halo also refuses to connect and receive the list of servers. The only applications that seem to connect properly are internet browsers (Safari and Firefox).
Is your firewall blocking the affected apps? Check System Preferences -> Security.

When using Firefox 5 i cannot complete the action of attaching a document (google doc or uploaded doc) to an event in Google Calendar. This action does work correctly in ie and chrome, so it seems to be a compatibility issue. When i get as far as selecting the attachment the script seems to stop. Even "cancel" is un responsive. I have to reload the tab to move on.
Firefox uses that loopback connection to communicate with the Software Security Device. That includes the Password Manager and secure connections.

I am frequently unable to join the internet or, if I can, it is exceptionally slow. The ISP says nothing is wrong ontheir end. Are there any compatibility issues with any ISPs when using Time Capsule and/or iMacs?
Tried this several times to no avail. I believe it is the ISP causing the problem...Time Warner.

We bought an iphone 4s for our daughter. We transfered it to straight talk. She can make calls and text no problem. She can use the WiFi but is unable to use the internet or mms. How do we update the APN?
To clarify for anyone who is still having any problems doing this.
1. Unlock your phone with the carrier ( I know the process will work if it is jail broken but I am assuming you dont want to void the warranty on your phone) NOTE: even if you purchased the phone outright at Wal-Mart it is still locked to ATT so you will have to unlock the phone. If it's already unlocked skip to step 2. This works and will work even if you update the phone.
1a Here is the link to unlock a ATT iphone. Simply follow the instructions https://www.att.com/deviceunlock/client/en_US/
2. Get a T- mobile SIM. Even if you don't want the service, if you feign interest, they will send you one for free or 99cents. If you need it now you can get one at a T-mobile store too.
3. Once you have both your Straight talk SIM and your T-mobile SIM follow these instructions:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mFFf5uqk18M
4. If you have any remaining questions look at all the responses posted previously on this thread or check out the Howard Forums Wiki: http://wiki.howardforums.com/index.php/Straight_Talk_iPhone
Everything should work flawlessly at this point. If not let me know and I'm happy to help when I can. I hope this makes doing this very easy for everyone in the future. God Bless -J -
In "purchases" while in my App Store, Mountain Lion says, "an error has occurred" and the green 'download' button is grey and I cannot re-start the download. I was abroad when I purchased this app and during download, my internet connection was lost. At the time, Apple was still offering the e-chat, so I did that and the man was very helpful and it was a quick fix, so my download button turned green again, and I was able to begin the download. BUT during the download, I was kicked offline once again, and I decided to wait until I was back in the USA. I will go in to an Apple store and ask assistance, but if there is something I am missing, I'd like to try that first. Thanks in advance for any advice.
Welcome to the support forums.
Please ask this question in the Mac App Store forum where they can better assist you. -

You posted in the iPad forum instead of the iPhone forum. To get answers to your question, next time post in the proper forum. See https://discussions.apple.com/index.jspa I'll request that Apple relocate your post.

CS5.5 Subscription: Unable to connect to internet.
So, for two days, I've been unable to use either of the two Creative Suite 5.5 Master Collection licenses I'm currently subscribing to and paying a pretty penny for. Yesterday, Adobe customer support informed me that something must be "wrong with my machine", so, I dutifully did all of the testing, cleaning up, repairing and troubleshooting I could think of on that machine. CS5.5 Subscription on that one still doesn't work. Today, I attempted to use the other license I'm paying for on a different machine, with the exact same results.
When attempting to open any of the products, I get this message:
When I click Try Again, I get this one, which stays on this screen and never changes:
As you can imagine, I'm fairly certain I'm connected to the internet, since I'm typing this in the forum right now. I've attempted a wired connection, wireless connection and my MiFi connection, restarted, stood on one foot while patting my head, and attempted to bribe my software, with the same results each time.
Specs:
MacBook Pro 15" / Snow Leopard
Mac Mini / Lion
To reiterate, here are the steps I've attempted:
Repair permissions
Repair disk
Multiple restarts
Move from Wired to Wireless connection
Move from Wireless to MiFi connection
This isn't an issue with Lion, since it's occuring on both machines with different serial numbers. This is a problem with Adobe's subscription licensing server, or a problem with the way the software connects to it. Any assistance is appreciated, and the quicker I get it, the happier I'll be, since this has already caused me to fall behind on a deadline. At this point, I'm considering canceling the monthly subscription and reinstalling my version of CS4, which, while missing some of the features I upgraded to CS5.5 for, at least works.
Side note for Adobe personnel: It's not entirely clear in your FAQs for the subscription editions that you have to be connected to the internet every single time you open the software.I'm getting that exact same message. Started today and it's driving me crazy. I can't find any information on error code 194:100. I talked to customer support through chat and they hadn't any clue as to what error 194:100 could be. They said it was technical and I should contact tecnical support. Why anyone would want to talk to a support agent that cannot fix problems and just generally tells you to call the real customer support, I have no idea.
This is the second time I've had problems with my software activation. It was slightly different but similar in several ways. I figured I'd metion some specifics to see if it matches more or less anyone else's problems.
Both times I've noticed I've had trouble with my adobe account id. Specifically I can log in just fine but I can't access the acount info section. I get a page not found error.
This time around I noticed many other weird things.
Adobe updater disappeared from my mac.
Encoder refused to encode certain premeire sequences.
Premiere froze on export of those same sequences.
And I first got the Unable to Connect to internet error this morning. Followed shortly The "Activation Failure error code #194:100" one. I've uninstalled and reinstalled several times and Premiere seems to run fine at least once. But if I try to open any other adobe application or if I load another project I get error 194:100.
The first time I had Activation Problems I ended up having to return the software, wait for the refund, delete my adobe id account, create a new one and buy it again with the new account.
I hope this is not a repeat of last time cause I'm seriously not rebuying defective software a third time.
I don't know if this helps but your problem seemed similar to mine.
15" Macbook pro 2.66 GHz Intel Core i7

iMac: model indentifier: iMac11,3
processor: 3.2GHz intel core i3
Software: OSX lion 10.7.5
Current problem: Time machine running extremely slowly as is computer. When time machine is "preparing to update" if I attempt to open any drive, that function freezes the computer.
I followed web advice to check for console message: mdworker: unable to talk to lsboxd. Found that to be present. As recommended, I turned off computer, restarted in safe mode, logged in and restarted computer. checked console, I see this same message and another message that may be problematic: mdworker: 32: kCGErrorFailure: set a breakpoint@CGErrorBreakpoint() to catch srrors as they are logged.
Both these messages being recorded every few minutes in the console log.
Any support would be greatly appreciated.
thank you,Hello Mr Davis,
Thanks for your willingness to help I really appreciate your assistance.
I decided to watch what was happening a bit more to see if I could discern a pattern to the problem so that I could pose a more refined question.
This am, after the computer was left on all night, I noticed time machine (TM) was running. I opened the console window, and noted after entering "starting" in the search field corresponding to "all messages" that hourly, there is a notation:
date, time, then "starting standard backu" followed by date, time and starting post backup thinning".
However, then there is the entry below at 12:25:46am referring to "starting standard backup" and there is no subsequent entry in the log referring to thinning having occured. I wonder if this corresponds to TM running now and I am guessing, ever since 12:25:46 am?
Once again, it seems that the problem is that when TM is running in this fashion, the computer slows down tremendously and operating particular programs such as photo processing lightroom that require more power, become very slow in particular.
I copied and pasted a section of the log as it seems to repeat the same sequence of information over and over all night long. I did not copy and paste the entire log since 12:25:46 am, as I wanted to not paste an excessive amount of lines here, but can do that if you like.
I hope I followed your directions correctly. thanks again, Jeff

I want to go back to Snow Leopard but I get "you have to install mac osx.app 23.1.1
I have a new 21.5 iMac I just purchased July 9 so I was able to download Lion for free under the up-to-date program. After installing Lion I decided I wanted to go back to Snow Leopard for various reasons. When I restart with the original Snow Leopard DVD that came with my machine and holding the C key down, I get the window for Mac OS X install DVD. I click the icon to install SL and another window pops up stating "You can't use this version of the application. Install Mac OSX.app with this version of Mac OSX. You have to install Mac OSX.app 23.1.1" To answer the question before hand....I don't have a time machine backup.
Thanks for all your help guys. I had trouble with my first install of Lion, it seemed buggy and when I tried some of the suggestions you offered, my machine did not always react the way it should have. I thought that was weird because it's a new iMac, only three weeks old. Pondini pointed me in the right direction and I think Lion is stable now. This worked after a few tries, not sure why I wasn't getting consistent results but it worked eventually.
1. Shut the computer down.
2. Hold "command" and "R" and turn on the computer (I believe this is recovery HD from the internet because it wasn't working from my hard drive)
3. After a few unsuccessful tries, and repeating #1 and #2, I finally got a window to reinstall Lion. This took about an hour to download and after that things went as expected.
As long as Lion is more stable than it was on my first install, which it seems to be now, I'll just stay with it. After this experience, I would say "make sure you need the features in Lion, and that all your current programs are compatible with Lion before you forge ahead."
Thanks again -
Can't browse the internet while making a phone call
I AM WONDERING IF ANYONE ELSE HAS THIS. I live in the United States and used to have a really cheap phone with this particular carrier and was able to make calls and browse through the internet while on that phone call. Now that i have the new I Phone 6 with that same carrier and i can NO LONGER make a call and browse the internet. This really upsets me since i pay a high bill to have my IPhone plan. I thought it was a problem with my carrier company but the told me that it's an issue with the new IPhone 6.
It's on, but are you actually in an LTE coverage area? What does it say in the status bar? If you're on the CDMA network, you can not talk and use data at the same time. The "cheap" phone you had that allowed you to do that actually had 2 radios in it, as opposed to the iPhone. Of course, even if you are on LTE, the carrier needs to have enabled Voice over LTE service in that area and on your account.
Sprint is pretty consistently the worst carrier in the country.
