Reinstalled OS and can't get the wireless to find my internet connection.

Hi, first post in here.. I have an imac g5, I don't know which version of the OS I've got, don't know how to check it. I have a dsl wireless connection with SBC, the box is called 2wire. It's set up through a pc and I then connect the mac wirelessly through an air port card. The mac got overloaded with fonts or something and ran really slow and after I saved my personal files I put in the original OS disc to reinstall everything and to give it a fresh start. Everything worked fine, but it can't find the wireless network anymore??? It just doesn't show up under the little antenna icon like it used to, and it won't find it if I scan for it. I put in the air port cd, and it won't let me install any of the two software versions available because it says everything is up to date. Anyone knows where to start looking? I've called SBC nad they couldn't help me, he gave me a mac help number where they wanted to charge me 50$.. !?!?!?! I don't think there's anything with the network itself, since it hasn't been touched, I think it's just some setting on the mac that needs to be looked at. Sorry if I sound pissy, but it's been a few hours now.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

When you do a clean install often you will need to start from scratch and re setup your Internet like starting a new.
You may have to delete any old account you had before and make a new account using the same settings as you had before.
When you do a reInstall it basicly reverts all your settings back to the way they were when you first started.
Cheers Don

  • I uninstalled Photoshop CC and am trying to reinstall, but I can't get the option to do that.

    I uninstalled Photoshop CC and am trying to reinstall, but I can't get the option to do that.  My CC app manager thinks I still have the app.

    This happens when Ps app is deleted not uninstalled it. So when you try to download, it shows you that Ps CC is already installed.
    Run the Cleaner tool to remove Ps CC :http://www.adobe.com/support/contact/cscleanertool.html . Restart your system and then try installing Ps again.

  • I am using windows 7 and can't get the print drives to load for F2210 printer

    I am using windows 7 and can't get the print drives to load for F2210 printer and I keep receiving different fatal error codes.

    Hello @Imvertical 
    Welcome to the forums!
    I read about how you're attempting to install your Deskjet F2210 on your Windows 7 system and receive Fatal Error codes. I will do my best to help and make some suggestions for you to try. 
    To being, try a standard copy from the unit to see if it will copy. If copies work, continue troubleshooting. If not, let me know what happened when you made a copy.
    Next:
    Perform a Level 3 uninstall.
    There are 2 ways you can run the uninstall:
    From Original installation CD:
    1. Insert CD into drive, and then cancel the installer
    2. Click Start and open 'Computer', and then right click on the CD drive and open
    3. Open folder Util
    4. Open folder CCC
    5. If you have an HP computer run the L3uninstall.exe. If you have a non-HP computer run the L4uninstall.exe
    6. When the uninstall has completed restart the computer
    7. Run Disk cleanup from Accessories\ System Tools
    8. Download and install the latest version of Adobe flash player
    http://www.adobe.com/support/flashplayer/downloads.html
    9. Download the full feature software and drivers: HP Deskjet F2200/F2224 All-in-One Printer series Full Feature Software and Driver
    10. Run the download to reinstall the printer
    If software was downloaded and extracted to your system:
    1. Click Start and type %temp% in the run field
    2. Look for, and open the folder starting with 7z (Example: 7zS2356) (If there is more than one, choose the most recent folder)
    3. Open folder Util
    4. Open folder CCC
    5. If you have an HP computer run the L3uninstall.exe. If you have a non-HP computer run the L4uninstall.exe
    6. When the uninstall has completed restart the computer
    7. Run Disk cleanup from Accessories\ System Tools
    8. Download and install the latest version of Adobe flash player
    http://www.adobe.com/support/flashplayer/downloads.html
    9. Download the full feature software and drivers: HP Deskjet F2200/F2224 All-in-One Printer series Full Feature Software and Driver
    10. Run the download to reinstall the printer
    Please let me know if the installation worked after the Level 3 uninstall.
    Good luck and have a nice Wednesday!

    I have an Apple TV 2nd Gen, iPad 2 and can't get the icon to appear when i swipe from left to right. What am I missing?
    I am able to get the 'Home sharing' 'user and password on my Mac.
    Also using IPad 2 I am able to get the ITunes to accept the user name and same password as the Mac.
    However, the only way I can see the 'Home sharing; icon is in Music on the Ipad. When I tap on the Icon it asks for a password.
    When I give the same password, it is rejected.
    Help!!!!

    Personally I think the iOS devices are poor at reconnecting  - Airplay establishes that a link is available but when the iPhone/iPad has been away from the house and rejoins the network i think AppleTV already thinks it's connected with a different IP address and fails to recognise it has joined the network again with new credentials.
    Something along those lines anyway.
    I find that a combination of restarting AppleTV, router and iOS device tends to fix it, but not for everyone.

  • I want to reinstall os X yosemite on my macbook Air but i erased the hard drive and i cant get the local recovery option; only internet recovery; is there any way to go back and get local recovery option?

    i want to reinstall os X yosemite on my macbook Air but i erased the hard drive and i cant get the local recovery option; only internet recovery; is there any way to go back and get local recovery option?

    Hi Bockworld1,
    I'm afraid you did an error when erasing your hard-drive, this has automatically erased the "local recovery". In order to pass-by this, you must use a former Mac OS X installation DVD (such as Snow Leopard 10.6.3) and then when updated to 10.6.8 you may access the Mac App Store to recover the Yosemite Installer and proceed to a fresh "update" OR creating a Bootable USB Installation drive with DiskMaker in order to alway get a installation copy.
    I also suggest you to create a USB Basic Operating System (you must select a local USB device to install Yosemite or whatever OS you want) with only the base operating system to launch your computer in case of Main Operating System issues.
    Given the amounts of issues reported by users with 10.10.2, I command you to download 10.10.2 version to get a stable OS working.
    Let me know how it is going.
    Good Luck.

  • I purchased Adobe Pro XI last February. I have tried to reinstall it and I keep getting the message that I have a valid serial # but no qualifying product. What is the issue?

    I purchased Adobe Pro XI last February. I have tried to reinstall it and I keep getting the message that I have a valid serial # but no qualifying product. What is the issue?

    Hey robertb86490977,
    The reason why you are getting this prompt is because you are trying to install an upgrade version.
    During the upgrade, you will need to enter serial number twice.
    The first time, you need to enter the serial number of the actual product that you have purchased.
    The second time, you need to enter serial number for the previous version that you had.
    So, please enter serial number of the previous version at the second prompt.
    Let me know if you need further assistance.
    Regards,
    Anubha

    Can't get the iPad in Find my iPad, cause I didn't turn on iCloud. What can I do now? I have the serial ID.By the way, I lost my iPad

    All you can do is physically look for it.  You had to have enabled Find My iPad on it before it was lost in order to track it.  You also might want to read this: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5668.
