Reader updates on Mac state it must have internet connection, but my Safari is up and running fine. What to do?
I have Reader 9.5.5 on Mac OS 10.10.2 and frequently get Adobe update notifications in my dock, accompanied by a warning panel that states an internet connection is necessary, but I have my Safari browser up and running fine. So I can never get the updater beyond this point. This happens periodically and I have written Adobe and never received an answer. Adobe should make the updates a seamless, nearly automatic file, but instead they are still using antiquated software which is confusing (unless you are an IT person) and difficult to troubleshoot. Adobe could do much better.
Your Reader version 9.5.5 is very old and no longer supported.
I suggest that you uninstall it, then install the latest version using the offline installer from http://get.adobe.com/reader/enterprise/

Do a malware check with some malware scanning programs on the Windows computer.<br />
You need to scan with all programs because each program detects different malware.<br />
Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of their databases before doing a scan.

I was trying to update my iOS to 7.1 but I can't, I have internet connection but if requires WiFi? before I can update my OS just using my phone internet but now I can't. Does OS 7.1 really require WiFi? Thanks!
The iPhone requires wi-fi to update if you try to update over the air, since the phone needs to reboot, thus disconnecting itself. You can update via iTunes and the computer, but you would not be able to tether to the phone for the internet connection, since the phone would disconnect. So, you can either update via wi-fi and the phone, or you can update with a computer that has an internet connection other than the phone.

I want to buy music from the iTunes store, but when I try to connect it says that there is a network problem. My network is connected and up and running fine. I went throught the steps of my norton software (2008) like the system told me and I still can't connect the same message appears. Can someone help me discover and fix this issue. I do not want to take my computer to best buy and pay a bundle of money.
I am having the same issue. I cannot connect at all the the ITunes store. I can do certain things on ITunes, but it is not working correctly. I, too, have followed all troubleshooting instructions, but no success. I can hook up my Ipod and Ipad 2. it is able to download and update applications, but unable to backup on my computer. I hope there are some answers soon.

E4200 - Must have internet connection!!
I was not at all pleased with this device. It was purchased with the intent of setting up a home LAN for expanded digital storage only. I was not aware that an internet connection is required to even begin the setup wizard.
What's great about it: unable to test unit
What's not so great: high speed internet connection required.
I would recommend this to a friend!Your feedback is always welcome. Basically, people use router to share their high speed broadband connection on multiple computers and devices (ipad, XBOX, DVR etc.)
Having said that, the purpose of the CD setup is to recognize the type of internet connection and configure the router accordingly without going through the manual setup.
Now coming to the issue that you have mentioned. Its not necessary to have an internet connection to setup the router just for the home LAN.
Every router has a built in web interface, with the help of which, you can configure/change almost all the settings on your router.
Please refer to the link which will guide you to login to the web interface of the router. http://www6.nohold.net/Cisco2/ukp.aspx?pid=93&login=1&vw=1&app=search&articleid=22651&userrole=Links...
Hope this helps. -
I Have seen similar questions to this but still can't seem to be able to fix the issue...
a Few months ago my iMessage and FaceTime stopped working, along with any notifications from apps such as Facebook. iMessage comes up saying 'iMessage activation. Could not sign in. Please check network connection settings.' I am currenttly using wifi on my iPad so I have internet, I've signed in and out of iTunes - as apps such as Facebook when open come up with 'connect to iTunes to receive push notifications.' I've checked the date and set it to automatically update and I've tried using different wifi And I've tried resetting the network settings. Does anyone have any other ideas? It's really annoying!
TThanksHi, Trinahughes.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
Try updating your devices to iOS 7.0.3 which was recently released as it provides a fix for issues with iMessage and FaceTime. If the issue persists, try the troubleshooting steps in the article below.

Yesterday, I downloaded the twoignite app. When I went to open the app to use, this error message appeared: An error occurred connecting to the server. Please make sure you have an internet connection. I checked my connection and found I had a solid connection. I have tried closing the app and reopening it; deleting the app and redownloading it (more than once); turning off my iphone and turning it back on. None of these things have worked. Thanks.

Tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings then restart your iPod.
Hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button down until the red slider appears. Slide your finger across the slider to turn off iPhone. To turn iPhone back on, press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears. -

On my Mac desktop I must have changed a setting so that now when I move the mouse the open windows fly off to the sides and I can't see them. They come back when I move the mouse, but it is so annoying. How can I make the windows not disappear like that?
Click on the Hot Corners.. button and look at the four definitions. In the picture below, if you moved the cursor to the right top of the screen, it would slide all the applications off the screen as you describe and show the desktop. Set it to "-" to deactivate.

I have an external hard drive from my time capsule that stopped working on me. I am attempting to access the data with a hard drive reader on my MAC. I am able to see the drive in disk utility and under system info USB. But I am unable to access the data and it does not show on the desktop when connected.
Ok if disk utility was able to verify the drive I doubt there is any problem.. are you trying to open a TM backup??
You need to mount the sparsebundle then check the actual info inside the bundle.
Don't use disk warrior.. if the disk has verified then unless you deliberately deleted files there is nothing that is going to do.
Pondini has a lot of stuff about getting access to the sparsebundle.

But if you have copied info to the TC that is now gone.. and the disk is ok.. I am not sure.. the TC will not have deleted the files itself.
