Password doesn't work when connecting other devices

I have tried several hundred times and I can't connect any other devices to my wireless network using the password. I am using the router password. Is that the correct password. Just got a android phone and woud like to be able to use my wireless network at home instead of the data plan. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I've tried reinstalling the router but that doesn't help. Have even tried changing the password

Never mind I figured it out after digging deeper through other posts. I was using the router password instead of the WPA Key.

  • I bought an external hard drive for backups to use with Time Machine, but however when I try to connect it with the other windows laptop it doesn't work ? intact it doesn't work on any other device except my MAC ?

    I bought an external hard drive for backups to use with Time Machine, but however when I try to connect it with the other windows laptop it doesn't work ? intact it doesn't work on any other device except my MAC ?

    Do not worry about it.
    Time Machine needs that your external drive is formatted in HFS+, or better known as "Mac OS Extended (Journaled)". This filesystem is used by Apple on Macs and Windows cannot read or write drives formatted with this filesystem, being this the reason why all your devices do not read the external drive except your Mac.
    You can only use your external drive to make Time Machine drives. If you store anything different, you may damage the Time Machine structure, so it is better not to use it as a drive to store other data. Instead, get another external drive to do it or create a second partition on the external drive formatted in FAT32 by using Disk Utility > http://pondini.org/OSX/DU3.html FAT32 can be read by Windows PCs

  • My Apple TV does not recognise My iTunes password. It works on all other devices but not Apple TV? Any ideas why or how to fix?

    Any ideas why my Apple TV does not recognise my iTunes password, when all other devices, including these communities are good with it?

    Hi Mick2291,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    I'd suggest restarting, and then restoring, your Apple TV if the issue persists:

  • Apple Password doesn't work when it is the correct password

    A few days ago, in the middle of playing music on iTunes, I was no longer able to sign in. When I tried to sign into Apple that day, my password (which I know was correct) didn't work. So I reset my password. Today I tried to sign into Apple with the new password and IT didn't work. I had to reset it again. What is happening? How do I resolve this issue? And please, someone respond. No one responded to my earlier question.

    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost      
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Try another USB port
    - Reboot the computer
    - Try another cable.
    - Inspect the dock connector on the iPod for bent or missing contacts, foreign material, corroded contacts, broken, missing or cracked plastic.

  • Password doesn't save when connecting to the internet via Airport

    When I try and connect through Airport to my wireless internet connection an error message comes up almost immediately with the message that the "connection has timed out".
    The only way I can get the internet through Airport is if I run through the Network Diagnostics scheme and re-enter my password which I have previously entered and checked off to save.
    This is getting really frustrating every time I turn on my computer and it has only been an issue since I upgraded to Leopard. I have all the current updates and drivers installed.
    I've checked Keychain Access to see if it was being overridden by an earlier password but that's not the case. What else can I do to automatically have Airport connect to the internet?

    Have you deleted all the Airport keychains and created a new location ? That might fix it.

  • On version 19 which just downloaded why doesn't the primary search box doesn't work when all other search functions (address box and upper search box) do?

    The primary search box in the center screen does not respond to any search input.
    In contrast:
    (1) the https:// address box responds immediately and normally when input is provided and the curved arrow tapped,
    (2) the upper search box in line with the address line works normally also when a search inquiry is provided and the magnifying glass tapped, and
    (3) all bookmarks work normally as they had previously prior to Firefox upgrading to 19.
    Everything seems normal with the exception of the center search box and the search command.

    I have tried all the so-called fixes listed here, but since downloading version 19, I can't get the search box to work. If I go through and try the fixes here, it works until I shut it down, and then I have to go through all these steps again. Trying to get someone to help is virtually impossible, and I am getting to the point where I will uninstall Firefox and use IE, as I have no other choice!

  • My ipad password doesn't work when I want to go into Itunes. Are they they same?, My ipad password doesn't work when I want to go into Itunes. Are they they same?

    We are trying to buy from itunes store and have reset the password on the market can you please advice if the itunes password is same as ipad password. Why can't I get to store?

    I assume that you mean the iTunes account password and the password to unlock the iPad itself when you are asking this question. They would be the same if you set them to be the same only you can answer that
    Go to settings>Store>Apple ID and tap on sign out. Then sign in again and enter the new(reset) iTunes account password there. See if you can purchase after signing in again with the reset password.

  • Help....can't access iTunes and iPod doesn't work when connected

    Ant ideas? I get an error message when I try to open iTunes,,,,iTunes has encountered a problem and needs to close....I have reinstalledseveral times...and when I try to sync my iPod using other programs( rhapsody(, it makes a wierd whirring sound and locks up the program.....

    Well no, sending an error report to Microsoft about an Apple program won't get you anywhere.
    Why not tell us the error message?
    edit - Was that it, just that dumb generic message? How about if you try a shift-start of itunes? Press _and hold_ the shift key while starting itunes, and choose to create a new itunes library - does that get you any further?

    Additional things to try.
    Try this first. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    Another thing to try - Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.

  • I have set up all my mac devices to sync with iCloud and all work except for email. When I delete on one device, the delete doesn't occur on the other devices.

    I have set up all my mac devices to sync with iCloud and all applications work except for email. Incoming messages appear on all devices but when I delete on one device, the delete doesn't occur on the other devices.

    Thank you for your interest. I use apple mail to access my two accounts -I guess they are 3rd party accounts. One is a gmail acount and the other is a bigpond account. I admit to a lack of a high level of literacy when it comes to the language around all of this. For example, I am aware that I have an iCloud email account as I managed to set it up, but don't really understand the purpose of it as the last thing I need is yet another email account to oversee.

    1. Did you use Bootcamp Assistant?
    2. Did you build a USB with Windows 7 ISO and Bootcamp drivers?
    3. You should use a USB2.0 disk, not a USB3.0 disk (flash drive).

    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at

    One user reported that placing the iPod in the freezer fixed the problem. A trick that works frequently with iPhones:
    Settings > AirPlane Mode ON, Do Not Disturb ON
    Power down and wait 5-10 minutes
    Power up
    Settings > AirPlane Mode OFF, Do Not Disturb OFF
    If not successful, an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is usually in order.

    The machine could be repaired by a company that does circuit board re-soldering, since it is possible a heat-flex solder break on the main board may have caused either the processor or graphics chips to lose connection and that could manifest itself in a few somewhat documented ways.
    There is an on-board RAM chip that may also have something to do with a kernel panic, if it no longer is functioning correctly; that is the non-removable one soldered on the board you never usually worry about.
    Companies such as powerbookmedic, wegenermedia, and others can take in portable macs of vintage or newer (contact them for details on what they do, and how they accept work orders) for repair and can fix most anything; and have a parts inventory. Modern repair workstations allow the equipped service company to fix complex issues and they do troubleshooting. Sometimes the cost is less than a replacement logic board.
    The links above may help isolate the general cause of a kernel panic. There are other articles in Support database including a deeper look into them.

    Usually the issue is caused by hardware, especially if there is an indication of machine failure in the crash log or other screen image text.
    A working last model MacBook (mid-2010) would be a better 'first mac' to have.
    Hopefully you can sort it out.
    If not, there likely are fair parts in it.
