PS3 not connecting to anything wirelessly

My PS3 slim won't connect to anything wirelessly (including controller and internet). Controller wirelessly connects to other PS3's and is fully charged. It works with the lead connected. My wifi is working as have tested this with another PS3 and other devices. Have tried to reset controller and restored default settings on PS3, but nothing. Please help...

Ok, that looks like the network interface card has failed. This is a mult-function card that contains the wifi, ethernet and bluetooth functions.
You will need to get it looked at somewhere, either a local pc repair shop, or send it into Sony.

How on earth could I be connecting to the Internet through my airport express when it is not connected to anything?

I'm not entirely displeased with the situation but I cannot see how I could be connecting to the Internet through my airport express when the Airport is not connected to anything.
Weird huh?
I have a separate non- Airport wireless network connected to the Internet. I had previously set-up the Airport to link with this network but disconnected it (by resetting it) as music streaming was unlistenable due to frequent drop out. I now just have the Airport Express as a standalone wireless network only connecting to the stereo to stream music from devices.
My devices are only connected to the Airport network with cellular data off. Yet I can still connect to the Internet AND listen to streaming music (without drop-out no less).
I don't want to fix it but I would like to know how the frag it could happen so i don't screw it up accidentally.

I would say you still have something of the previous setup.
To be sure you don't mess up, save the configuration.. go to the top menu area of the airport utility and export configuration.. which will land on your computer.
Now you can recover at anytime to the current setup.
How it works.. that is magical ..
Open the airport utility.. edit.. and take a screenshot and post it of the following pages..
Internet wireless network
THen we can tell you how it is working.

Firefox will not connect to anything past my Yahoo homepage

I am using Firefox 4.0 beta. Last night I began having problems with the browser not connecting with anything, including the Mozilla server. I finally gave up and went to bed. This morning the same problem continued, so I used Internet Explorer 8 to connect to the internet (worked fine), and came to this site to report my problem. I have checked my router (brand new) and internet connections and they are all ok. I am using Windows 7 on a Dell Studio 17 laptop. I have recently downloaded Network Magic from Linksys, but have not installed it yet.

IPad 2 not connecting to "ruckus" wireless system

I have an iPad 2 64GB 3G that will not connect to the wireless system at work. It connects at home and other hotspots but not with the ruckus system.
Error message displayed Unable to join the network "Name" I can connect other iPads, Androids and Macs to the same network, this one iPad is driving me crazy.
Things tried
Full system Reset/Network/Content and data
Upgraded to iOS 5
Full system Reset again
New User / Full reset with the new user
I'm thinking it is something with the wireless system here, but the IT people at my work can't explain why other devices are connecting and mine is not.
Any suggestions or apps that may be able to help me out please send my way.

I just got off the phone with the technician who supports the wireless Ruckus system, it turns out the iPad in question was 'Hard Blocked' on the guest network access. (Because it had joined the network previously but did not Authenticate through the web interface)
The unit was 'unblocked' on the Ruckus controller, I did a restore on the iPad, connected to the wireless network and all is well.

HT5569 I can't connect my WIFI to my router and its not giving me any networks to join or connecting to anything wireless.

Is there anyway I can talk to a tech person?

Is it this?
iOS: Wi-Fi or Bluetooth settings grayed out or dim
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.

IPod touch 4th gen will not connect to anything after update. Please help.

Ok, so I haven't updated my 4th gen ipod touch since I bought it, which was well over a year ago. Just recently, apps have started to force me to update to the newest iOS and many updates require it too, so I finally decided to update and get it over with. Well, I synced everything from my ipod and then updated. Well, to my horror after I came back I found out that even though I had CLEARLY synced my apps. They were gone on BOTH my ipod and my computer.
Not to say I was really ticked off or anything, but I had almost 15 GB or so of just apps on my 32 GB itouch. I read somewhere that I can go back and reinstall all my apps but that would be a PAIN. Turns out there aren't many others ways to go about doing it so I was left with little choice. Well, once again, I ran into the problem that absolutely nothing would connect on my ipod touch.
So, I have two problems actually:
1. Is there anyway besides reinstalling apps for me to get back all the apps I had prior to updating my ipod? And in the future, how can I prevent itunes from deleting my apps when I clearly have them synced before updating?
2. Why won't my ipod touch connect to anything wifi related? When I open the app store it just simply loads. And it will continue loading forever; I had it "loading" for about an hour until I decided to come here. Same goes with iCloud, facetime, Safari - just anything that has to do with connecting to my wifi.
Things I've done: I've restarted my ipod once already, I've reset my router as well, and I've also tried to disconnect from my router then reconnect. None of them have worked so far. Any help would be appreciated.

- If synced media like apps and music are not in the iTunes library on the computer one which you update they will not be on the iPod after the update since the backup that iTunes makes does not include synced media..

MacBook Pro will not connect to Cisco Wireless Network

I have just bought a brand new MacBook Pro, running Leopard (OSX 10.5.1) and I just cannot get it to connect to the Wireless Network at my workplace.
The MBP connects to wireless network and authenticates just fine, but will not obtain an IP address from the DHCP server.
The wireless network consists of 16 Cisco Aironet 1200 Access Points controlled by a Cisco Wireless Network Controller. It does not broadcast its SSID and is WEP 128-bit hex protected.
Changing the network from WEP to WPA is out of the question for me as this is under the control of my customers IT Department and they do not have any problems with their PCs connecting to the network. It appears to be an Apple issue.
For reference, my old Vaio PC, my Nokia N95 and my iPod Touch ALL connect to the same wireless network without any problems whatsoever, first time, every time!
If I boot into Windows XP from my Boot Camp partition, XP can connect wirelessly to the network without any problems, so it is not MacBook hardware related...
It has to be a bug in Mac OSX... doesn't it?!?
Things I have already tried (following suggestions on many forums):
* Switching Airport off/on
* Deleting various network-related Plist files and rebooting
* Manually assigning an IP Address (not really permitted but doesn't work anyway!)
* Disabling all network adaptors except Airport
AP Grapher shows that the MBP is connected to the wireless network, at good strength, and packets are being sent and received, but Internet Access is not possible as no IP Address has been assigned. Instead, my MBP shows a 169.* IP Address (self-assigned). It should be a 10.1.255.* address.
Can anybody please help? Thank you.

i posted this same reply elsewhere because it worked for me for my Buffalo wireless router: try manually setting your IP address instead of relying on DHCP, which sometimes (I don't know why) doesn't work well with Macs. It's a good get around. I am a happy Mac user but nothing is perfect on earth, and when the Mac gives problems, it does give a lot of frustration. Macs are not as easy to troubleshoot as Win because a Mac is built to be user friendly(and it works most of the time), meaning a lot of the background computing stuff is hidden away from users to avoid user accidentally upsetting some settings.
Unfortunately, the highly automated troubleshooting wizards provided by OS X are not perfect so when these software wizards fail to resolve the problem, like my Network Diagnostics, I have to spend more time tinkering around. There's "Terminal" of course but then most of us, especially PC converts to Macs, don't know how to use it.
You should also try updating your MBP, see if there are any new updates being released.

CB2530 BT Headphones will not connect to anything!

Help ! Please !
My CB2530 headphones will not now connect to anything, including the adapter supplied to fit into headphone sockets.
None of my BT capable machines (which have all worked fine with them before) can find them as a BT device. The supplied adapter just blinks it's blue light and then auto powers off without making a connection. All the time, the headphone blue light blinks like it is waiting for a connection ....
I notice too that if you switch them on and hold the earpiece which has the red power light, the red light glows more strongly and dims again when you let go. I have tried new batteries and everything else I can think of without success.
Is there something I can try or are my headphones broken? The indicator lights do seem to operating normally but they just never make a connection.

Koyli,
When you connected your Bluetooth device to the headphones were you required to put in a connection code? I am trying to connect to my headphones from a Bluetooth enabled laptop and I am asked for a connection code when the laptop recognizes the headphones as a Bluetooth device. I am working with Creative Customer Support to get the connection code, but I received a reply that the only way the headphones work is with the dongle. Where did you get the connection information requested for the connection?

Hello @Ali1234,
Welcome to the HP Support Forums! I understand you are trying to connect your HP Photosmart C4780 to your Mac running the Yosemite 10.10 Operating system. I notice you have the PS C4780 connected to a Windows 7 computer, what you would need to do is connect using the USB to Wireless option. Let's put the Mac on hold for a minute and get on the Windows computer, follow the steps below:
The HP software automatically gathers network settings by temporarily connecting a USB cable from the printer to a computer that is connected to the new network. Follow these steps to reconnect the printer to the network.
Click the Windows icon (), click All Programs, click HP, and then click the folder for your HP printer.
Click USB to Wireless, and then follow the on-screen instructions. Do not connect the printer to the computer with the USB cable until prompted. At the end of the process you are prompted to remove the USB cable.
Restart any other computers on the network that use the wireless printer.
- Source
Once you have the PS C4780 connected to your wireless network, let's go ahead and work with the Mac. Because you are using the Yosemite 10.10 Operating system you must install the printer using the Apple Updates. Please click on the link below, this document explains how to install the print driver on a Mac for a USB or a network connection. The OS X v10.10 Yosemite driver for your printer is available through Apple Software Update (ASU). Additionally, you can perform basic print jobs using AirPrint without installing a driver.
Installing a Mac Printer Driver Using Apple Software Update
Be sure to check out the FAQs at the bottom of the document as some of the features may be limited or there are workarounds.
I hope this helps!

MacBook not connecting to public wireless network

So I have had this MacBook for 3 years now, and I have always been able to connect to my wireless network at work, which is password free.
But over the past few days, my MacBook has not been able to connect, have tried everything I know( not a computer whiz,but can survive)
I have gone on network diagnostics, and all the icons on the left panel( airport, airport settings, network settings, ISP, Internet, server) are all red instead of green.
I can still connect to my home network.
Please. Need your help.
Ps: my workplace network administrator has not made an new changes to the network.
Thanx

Hi, I had the same problem : airport was not automatically connecting to the previous network.
After browsing a while on the forums I came to think that the solution was to start all over from the begining. So I deleted the information mac os has from my network (ssid + wep key). After inputing it again the issue was gone.
More precisely I gone to system prefs, then to network prefs, then to airport prefs. Then I chose "by default, connect to prefered network". Then I deleted my prefered network. After that I desactivated airport, reactivated it and inputed my settings.
hope that'll help
