Test in Browser uses my local PC not my Internet Connection

When I us the little World button ("Preview/Debug in
Browser") DW wants to open the page in my test server on my local
machine (localhost://). I want it to use my internet connection. I
can't work out how or if I can change this behaviour.
Many thanks
Martin

So, you have Apache installed on your PC, right? Then you
need to set up a
Testing server that points to the correct location on your
PC. What is the
path to the Apache root?

  • My macbook air is not getting internet connection through our home wifi It was working fine yesterday until I took the Air out of the house and used it on another wifi connection.

    My macbook air is not getting internet connection through our home wifi.  It was working fine yesterday until I took the Air out of the house and used it on another wifi connection.  One question is how to delete some of the networks that I don't use.  Would too many networks cause the internet connection to fail?
    Thanks.

    Would too many networks cause the internet connection to fail?
    It shouldn't but sometimes deleting the list of networks actually does solve the problem you are describing. Have you turned WiFi off and then back on on the computer?

  • Problem with not getting Internet Connect on AirPort Express

    Problem with not getting Internet Connect on AirPort Express (version7.6.4). Error says cannot get valid IP address. Have reset Siemens SpeedStream 4100 several time, even with tech support from the big "A" DSL provider. Plug MacBook Pro directly into modem and works fine. Unplugged AirPort, even reset it, still no luck. A bad Express?? or am not looking in the right place to make connection. Was working fine up until Sunday.

    Connect the AirPort Express (AX) to the cable modem via Ethernet cable.
    In configuring the AX using AirPort Utility:
    Under Internet, set the connection to be Ethernet using DHCP.
    Under Connection Sharing, set it to distribute a range of IP addresses.
    Under AirPort>Wireless, set the Wireless Mode to Create a wireless network, and fill in the remaining settings in the same window. Until you get it working, you might want to set Wireless Security to None.

    Do I need to be online to use creative cloud? I want to use it in the field without internet connection.

    Creative Cloud Help | Creative Cloud / Common Questions
    Do I need to be online to access my desktop apps?
    No, the desktop applications in Creative Cloud, such as Photoshop and Illustrator, are installed directly on your computer, so you don’t need an ongoing Internet connection to use them.
    An Internet connection is required the first time you install and license your apps, but you can use the apps in offline mode with a valid software license. The desktop apps will attempt to validate your software licenses every 30 days.
    Annual members can use the apps for up to 99 days in offline mode. Month-to-month members can use the software for up to 30 days in offline mode.

  • Can I use a airport express to get internet connection to a Mac Mini that doesn't have wireless by adding it to my existing wireless network?

    I bought a first gen Mac Mini for our daughter and it doesn't have internal airport adapter and was wondering if I got a airport express can I plug it in my daughters room and use it as a local router and just use the eithernet connect from it.  Or would a airport extreme work better for this job.  I have a wireless cable modem that we connect to.  I also have a second question I have a iMac G4 that picks up the wireless signal but will not connect to it does it have to be a Apple airport for it to work or should it be able to connect to any broadcasted signal.  Thanks for the help.

    I'm not sure I quite understand. Do you wish to use the AEX to provide a wireless connection for a device that has an Ethernet port but no wireless capability of its own? You wish to use it in place of a wireless card that isn't internally installed? If so, the answer is, "Yes." It will work as a wireless access point. But you must have an extant wireless network because the AEX won't have an Internet connection when used in this way.
    If you have an existing wireless network with a wireless router connected to your cable/DSL model or your modem is a wireless router as well, then the AEX may connect to it in bridge mode. Note that AEXs don't always play nice with non-Apple routers. Some work; others don't.

  • Can I use Apple TV on network without internet connection?

    I'm helping someone who has an Apple TV (version1) and their router and internet connection is down.  We need to use the AppleTV today to stream a video from her mac to the TV connected to the Apple TV for a presentation.  Can we just hook up the Mac and the AppleTV to a switch via Ethernet (or connnect wirelessly to an AirPort Base station) and stream the video without being connected to the internet?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    You can't just use a switch, but you can use a router or wifi access point without access to the internet, but you will need a DHCP server to give each device on the network an IP address.
    You may also be able to connect the Mac and Apple TV directly with an ethernet cable, I've tested this with the Apple TV 1, but not with the Apple TV 2.

  • Local area network disable internet connection

    Hello,
    i have a strange problem, i explain
    Computer A  win XP   ip 192.168.2.231 with onboard network card
    Computer B  win 98   ip 192.168.2.232 with pci network card
    Router Linksys WRT54GS, with ip 192.168.2.230, but i use it just like a hub because i don't have here internet connection
    both computers connected with cable and all work nice.
    Then i added a wireless/USB Planet because i want to connect it to another router in another building to get internet connection, so i connected this Planet wireless/USB to computer A, all work nice, i get signal internet connection and ip 192.168.1.102
    but ..... and that is the problem, when i connect computer B win local area it disable my internet connection, i try to ping some domain name from computer A, where Planet adaptor is installed, but it try to find this domain name in local area instead to route in internet connection, if i deactivate local area ..... internet connection work like a charm.
    I tried to change several ip groups, all in 192.168.1.x, tried to disable, enable DHCP server in router, tried to change subnet mask, tried to use proxy, to play with router configuration...... nothing it not work.
    So i think something about network onboard conflicts, so i installed a new pci card in computer A, ouffff nothing when i active local network i stop to have internet connection, i tried also to install another USB wireless adaptor and connect it via wireless with router, nothing ... when i active local network i stop to get internet connections
    So the only way to get internet connection is do disable local network oufffff

  • Using HP ePrint with mobile phone internet connection

    Hello, I have a peculiar problem.
    I have an HP Officejet 4630 e-All-in-One series printer and I want to set up HP ePrint.
    I have internet connection for my laptop computer, which is the computer I use. It too is a HP. To set up your HP ePrint account you need the printer's code number which can be printed from the printer's control panel. Once you have the printer code, you can then enter it in to your account to add your device. My problem is that my interent connection is the mobile phone which I use to connect my laptop to the internet. The printer is then connected to the computer using either the direct wireless feature or using the supplied USB cable. Because of this, I can't obtain the printer's code, from the printer's control panel. I do not use landline internet connection as the mobile phone is used as a modem.
    What do I do?????????
    Can I just phone technical support and ask them to email my printer code??????
    This question was solved.

    Hi,
    No, this is not going to work and WON'T work at all. Your printer MUST be connected to the internet to allow ePrint to work. No point to send an email to printer and it is NOT there.

  • Apple programs will not recognize Internet connection after Tiger upgrade

    In January, I posted the question below. I wanted to update it, but this site has archived it and will not allow responses. In the hope that I may help someone else, I am repeating my question, now that I have the answer.
    ===============================================
    ORIGINAL PROBLEM
    Last week, I upgraded from 10.3.9 to Tiger. Ever since then, I have had trouble using Apple's programs that require internet usage: Safari, iTunes, Software Update, etc. All of these programs think I am not connected to the Internet. But I am; I can use Netscape, Internet Explorer, and other non-Apple programs on the web.
    Furthermore, it's not consistent. Sometimes Safari will recognize the connection. I'll be using Safari, looking up websites, when suddenly it will quit connecting, giving me the message, "Cannot connect to the server," no matter what server it is, even apple.com (so I have to use Netscape to access my .Mac and this Support screen).
    How can I resolve this?
    ==============================================
    The problem was that my Earthlink Access software was setting a proxy on my connection. Netscape & Firefox worked because they ignore any proxies; the Apple programs (plus Shiira and Internet Explorer) didn't connect because they use the proxies.
    Why did it sometimes work? Well, if I first used Safari to go to a secure website of my bank, somehow that opened up the connection and then I could continue to use the Internet and Internet based programs like iTunes and widgets. However, if I tried to use an Internet-based program before going to the secure site, then it wouldn't work.
    After months of phone calls and e-mails and sending data packets and all such stuff with Apple Care, they finally stumbled upon this answer: Uncheck the proxy box. And that did it. At first I had to uncheck it every time I started up the computer, but now it stays unchecked and I can use my Apple programs with no trouble.
    I just wanted to share this with you in case you also had trouble with Internet connections after upgrading to Tiger, because I did see several other people had this same trouble.
    Movable flat-screen iMac G4   Mac OS X (10.4.6)   1.25Ghz processor, 256 MB memory (DDR SDRAM)

    For the record, could you state each Proxy box you ended up unchecking please? I'll attempt to submit a user tip with credit to you for finding this solution.

  • Outlook 2007 not working, internet connection is fine

    I installed an airport extreme yesterday and my internet connection is up and running on all PC's and an IMac. However, I can't seem to get my Outlook 2007 connected to my ISP. All my ISP incoming and outgoing server names are correct. Should I change the advanced settings for server port numbers? They are 110 (incoming) and 25 (outgoing)?
    As you all know, being w/o email is a bxxxh.

    Lyle,
    Ok, so we know the issue is not related to the base station, but the email account.
    I know it sounds silly, but make sure you are on YOUR wireless network (click Airport icon in menu bar and make sure your network name is selected). If you are on another network, RoadRunner may block you from using their SMTP (outgoing) mail server.
    Once you're sure on your network, re-create the account with settings you get from your ISP. Find out if the 'username' they want for the incoming server is your full email address or just the part before the @ symbol (e.g. bobsmith or [email protected]), whether they use SSL encryption and odd port numbers. Ports 110 and 25 are common settings for POP & SMTP servers, respectively.

  • Is there a way of transferring a purchased app from my iMac to my MBA if the MBA does not have internet connection?

    I am relatively new to the Mac world, and so please excuse me if this sounds like a dumb question.  I have a iMac running 10.6.8 and hard wired, not wireless.
    I recently purchased a MAB with the intention of NOT hooking it to the internet but just stand alone, for writing purposes. I needed an app for it, so  I purchased it through the app store on the iMac with the intent of transferring to the MAB via flash drive. Now in retrospect, its probably not the way its supposed to happen, due to licence rules, etc.  Does anyone have any suggestions on how I can get the app on my MAB or will I have to get it online to do a transfer from the iMac?
    Thank you in advance your suggestions.

    Apple is relying heavily on the Mac App store to make purchases and install applications. Of course, this requires an Internet connection for all purchases and installs. If you connect the MBA to the App store online, you should be able to download an install an additional copy, provided the MBA and the iMac share ownership information (registration, Apple ID).
    Apple's long term plan will just about require all systems to have Internet access to function in app installation and updating, if you buy the Apps from Apple..
    Alternatively, some Apps can be copied in whole, by simply copying the particular App folder in the Applications folder of your iMac system, then pasting that App folder in the corresponding Applications folder on your MBA. The rest can't. The reason; they install library and other files elsewhere on the computer. It all depends on the Developer's structure of the App.
    You can try the App file copying, and if it does not work, you will simply have to establish an Internet connection for your Air, and use the App store.
