OSX Mavericks having internet connection problems.

Just updated to OSX Mavericks on my early 2011 MacBook Pro, and it's having internet connection problems. I'm using wi-fi, and so far only Firefox and Mail will connect. All other programs (such as iTunes and App Store) won't establish a connection. This is a problem that only started after I installed Mavericks. What can I do to fix this? Thanks in advance.

App Store / iTunes Store relies on Safari settings if you can't access secure sites from Safari then they won't work...  Reset Safari  and make sure Block Cookies Setting is not set to Always.  You can also try to create a new user and see if it works there to help isolate the issue.

  • Having internet connection problems

    I have been having problems connecting to the internet.  I have an iMac, and frequently my internet connection drops, then I have to turn wi-fi off and turn wi-fi back on.
    This can happen repeatedly, sometimes in switching from one webpage to another.
    We didn't have this problem when we first got the iMac, and I didn't notice a problem until I activated the firewall, when the computer is purchased.
    Could the problem have to do with setting preferences?
    Any suggestions or advice will be appreciated.
    Thanks!

    Unfortunately there are quite few threads on here where users seem to have intermittent wifi connectivity issues, and there doesn't seem to be one-fix-for-all solution.
    You could try these ideas one at a time to see if any one of them helps.
    I've seen it reported on here that deleting the wifi connection entirely in Network Prefences and re-creating a new one can help.
    You could also try adding these openDNS numbers (if there are any numbers listed already made a note of them in case you need to re-instate them): System Preferences>Wifi>Advanced Button>DNS tab - on the left at the bottom click the plus sign and type the numbers 208.67.222.222 - click the plus sign again and add these 208.67.222.222 and save the settings.
    Finally this oldish 'fix' seems to help some:

  • Having internet connection problem with a new Actiontec GT794WG

    I am  currently using Westell 327w which works completely fine. Its internet light comes on after few seconds the DSL light becomes solid. I am trying to change it to GT794WG, because I have been using 327w about 4 years.
    By the way, I am having a connection difficulty with my new GT794WG modem.
    Although I connect every necessary cables such as DSL, Ethernet cables and turn it on, an internet light on the modem does not flash. There is no problem with DSL light. It becomes solid after few blinking. Only problem is the internet light. I know that it refers that the modem can not connect with the internet.
    I don't understand why the new modem can't connect to the internet which my old modem can?
    Can anyone help me solve this problem?

    Ok.
    #1 For your info, there a certain amount of time that you can re-edit your post.
    A time limit of at least 2 hours.
    #2 Why do you want to replace your Westell 327w with the newer router? That is if there is any other reason besides, you have been using it for four years..
    Moving along...
    #3 In the Westell 327w, go to Configuration -> VC Configuration
    #4 There are different settings there, as I saw at
    https://docs.google.com/viewer?url=http://www.westell.com/images/pdf/e90_6000_6100_6110_ug.pdf&embed...
    on page 46 out of 146 pages.
    #5 What is 0 VPI / 35 VCI set to?
    #6 Notes:
    a) In the manual/user guide (that docs.google.com URL) the connection type is PPPoE.
    b) If 0 VPI / 35 VCI is set to Disabled, what ever the enabled for example 0 VPI / 36 VCI.

  • Internet connection problems with OSX 10.10.3

    Does anyone else have very bad Internet connection problems after downloading OSX 10.101.3?  Does anyone have a solution? P.S. What do you think of PHOTOS, after Aperture?

    1, No problems here with internet on 10.10.3
    2, No solution
    3, I think that Photos is a toy. Apple has basically neutered both Aperture and iPhotos with their efforts to make their desktop solution match the iOS solution.
    I am currently looking for a non-Apple solution for my photographic needs since Photos in no way shape or form is able to fill my needs.

  • RG54G2 Wireless Router Internet Connection Problem

    Hi,
    (apologies for the long message - trying to cover all details - summary: wireless router often drops internet connection)
    I recently bought an RG54G2 Wireless Router, a CB54G2 PCMCIA Wireless card and a D-Link GWL-630 PCMCIA Wireless card.  In addition to two laptops connected to the wireless router WLAN, I have two PCs (one Win WP Pro SP 1 and one Win98SE) connected to the router via wired LAN.  I also have a SurfBoard SB3100 Cable Modem connected to the WAN port (this connects to my ISP -  Optusnet (Australia) via DHCP).
    The problem I have is that the internet connection is disconnected many times a day (often every few minutes, sometimes an hour or so).  I am able to reconnect by resetting the wireless router via the wireless router configuration page.  When the internet is disconnected I am still able to access the computers on the LAN/WLAN (via Windows Explorer and Ping), I am also able to ping the router and the Cable Modem, but nothing outside of the cable modem.
    Also, when the internet is disconnected the System Status page indicates that the router is still connected to the internet, and the Diagnostics page passes the Test Connection test, though no external pings work.
    I did not have this problem when the cable modem was connected directly to the Win98SE PC (and other PCs via ICS).
    I have disabled the WLAN and the problem still exists with only the wired LAN.
    I have changed numerous settings in the wireless router config page with no success (eg disabling DHCP and setting each IP address, minimising LAN and WLAN speeds to 10 and 11MBps plus others).
    I have upgraded the wireless router firmware to R1.0.6.0 (no change to the problem).
    Searching on Google I have found several other cases of routers with unstable internet connections (none refering to the MSI routers), but none had solutions that helped my situation (most replies suggested updating the firmware).
    Any suggestions of how to make the router internet connection stable?
    Thanks,
    Mike

    maybe this is the FIX 4 wireles router internet connection problem
    please let me know if any one fix the problem with this tips

    Subject: SOLUTION to my router loosing connection to Windows XP
    Reply | Reply to Author | Forward | Print | Individual Message | Show original | Report Abuse
    I am happy to report that after 8 days of constant battles, reboots, phone
    calls, cable pulling, router changing, it seems that I finally have found a
    combination that has had me using Verizon DSL account for over 12 hours so
    far without any kind of interruptions.
    Since so many of you tried giving me comments and suggestions, I felt that
    it is necessary for me to post this here so that the next person will not
    (hopefully) need to go through this hell as I did!
    My original problem was that when after I purchased a D-Link Wireless Router
    DI-624, I would get disconnected from Verizon DSL at least once every 2
    hours or so. My internet access would "freeze" and then a little popup box
    at the bottom right system tray would tell me that the "LAN cable has been
    unplugged".   After about a minute or so, my internet connection would be
    back working   This was NEVER happening during the 2+ years I was using my
    Westell modem alone (running in router mode).
    Please keep in mind: The problem I was having was not wireless related as
    it was happening to the desktop computer to which the router/westell was
    connected to!
    During these last 8 days, I tried: one DI-624 wireless router, two Netgear
    614v3 routers and two Linksys WRT54G v.2 routers. In addition, I received a
    brand new Westell 2200 modem from Verizon.   I also tried about four
    different CAT-5 cables. Here is the final outcome:
    I have the Linksys WRT54G (version 2) wireless router connected to the
    Netgear Fast Ethernet FA310TX network card in Auto-Sense mode (using the
    built-in XP drivers, as Netgear told me that there was never a newer
    revision released). I have DISABLED the built-in 3Com Gigabit LOM (3C940)
    network card (via the ASUS P4C800 Deluxe motherboard BIOS), DISABLED the
    Zero Wireless Configuration service, and have put in the IP/Gateway/DNS
    address numbers inside my Windows XP Network Connections | LAN setup. My
    operating system is Windows XP Pro SP1 and the modem is a Westell 2200
    configured as bridge only.
    If my situation continues to be stable, I *might* try to go back to the 3Com
    built-in card (disable any power management) and then re-enabling the Zero
    Wireless Configuration services. But in reality, I am happy with the way
    things are and have already spent enough time trying to get my router to
    work with Verizon DSL without having it drop connections!
    Now, the next step will be setting up the WIRELESS part of this. I don't
    even yet have a laptop with me on the premises, but the 802.11g card that I
    already have is the D-Link DWL-G650. I hope and assume that this will work
    okay with the Linksys...
    One thing I must say is that I never realized that how many problems other
    users are having. I would have thought that since 802.11x has been around
    in the mainstream by now 2+ years, that things would have been much more
    "system friendlier".   And again, my issues were not even WIRELESS related.
    All 3 tech supports were not really helpful, as none of them realized that
    the problem is somehow between the router and Windows XP (Ethernet card?)
    loosing a connection, which of course results in Verizon DSL loosing the
    connection also.
    One other comment about the Netgear 614 v.3 router: A number of people have
    responded to tell me that they have had this random "router resetting"
    happen to them (where the routers behaves as if someone turned the power off
    and then back on, and the lights flash) just as if you first turn it on). I
    was lucky to witness it myself during one of the "disconnects" that I had.
    This was actually the reason why I went back to try the Linksys one more
    time. So, I would definitely recommend staying way from this 614 (version
    3) model.
    Once again - THANK YOU everyone!

  • Omni 10 mostly internet connection problem, also difficulties responding generally

    Dear all,
    For two weeks now i am proud owner of an omni 10 tablet. However, i already encountered some problems like the loss of the audio System, which was luckily restored with the help of the hp support via telephone.
    Unfortunately, my tablet is not properly connecting to the internet since yesterday. It also has problems opening PDF files with 'adobe read', deleting or newly creating appointments in the challenger app and foremost it sometimes does not open the settings section depite repeatedly tapping on its button..
    Most important currently is the internet connection problem. Is connects but says at the same time that the connection is limited. Additionally, it does not offer any solutions to this. That happend with three differend routers so far..
    I hope you can help me
    Greetings

  • Internet connectivity problems. Conflicting IP address?

    For the last few months I have been experiencing significant internet connection problems on my mac mini. Although at times my connection is ok, the majority of the time I'm suffering from what would best be described as an "intermittent" internet connection. It seems that my internet connection is constantly cutting out for short periods of time before re-establishing itself.
    I'm connected to the internet via a wireless network (netgear router). There are also two windows machines (one laptop and one desktop) and a PS3 connected on the same network (also occasionally there is a macbook connected to the network too).
    I've been with the same ISP for over a year now and previously had always experienced a good connection, also all the other devices connected on this network seem to have fine connectivity so I doubt there is any problem with my service provider.
    It could be a coincidence but the emergence of the problem seems to have conincided with my flatmates purchase of a laptop. When my flatmate first connected his laptop to the internet I received a message on my mac mini stating there was an IP address conflict, although I have not had that message again and I seem to suffer from bad connectivity at all times, not just when my flatmates laptop is turned on! Could these to issues be related?
    I'd be very grateful for any advice on how to resolve this issue as it's getting to be a very significant problem, thanks in advance for any replies...

    Also try using the open dns servers instead or your ISP's. System Preferences>Network. Advanced>DNS. Click on + and add the following: 208.67.222.222 and 208.67.220.220. Hit Ok,then Apply.

  • Just one month before i bought iphone 5... but the iphone has the internet connectivity problem... while a iphone 4s is cathcing 3G tower, whereas iphone 5 is catching 2G network only.... I've tried so many things to get recovered, but alas

    Just one month before i bought iphone 5... but the iphone has the internet connectivity problem... while a iphone 4s is cathcing 3G tower, whereas iphone 5 is catching 2G network only.... I've tried so many things to get recovered, but alas, nothing is workable- such as- restaring the iphone, reseting the networks etc... Please help me out from this problem..

    to be clear, my phone works fine when not in motion in a vehicle.  If I pull over and come to a complete stop, remaining in the car, my phone works.
    And while the phone is not working when I'm in motion, an internet search or a text message will go through, but I can not use Siri or any voice assistance when doing the text message or internet search.  The microphone is greyed out.
    So this is a unique issue, which appears to be the iPhone and not Verizon.
