(Tutorial) Share your Internet connection

Share my Internet access of the Wi-Fi via an Ethernet cable (RJ-45) to another laptop/PC.
Please follow the following steps:
1. Connect your shared laptop to another laptop/PC by using an RJ-45 Ethernet cable connecting to each other.
2.At first, you’ll see both systems show the network is limited. It’s normal.
3. In the system of the shared laptop, right-click the Wi-Fi icon and select Open Network and Sharing Centerto open its window. Then, click your Wi-Fi network.
4. In Wi-Fi Status window, select Properties to open Wi-Fi Properties window.
5. In Wi-Fi Propertieswindow, select Sharingtab and check Allow other network users to connect through this computer’s Internet connectionto share the Wi-Fi.
6. Now another computer which connected to your shared laptop should automatically detect the connection to Internet.
7. If another computer still shows the network is limited, please select Diagnosebutton to ask Windows for help and follow the instructions to fix the problem. Usually, the Windows will reset the Ethernet and re-detect the Internet connection again.
8. Instruction ended.

While turning cellular data off will keep your phone from connecting to cellular data WHEN wifi disconnects, it DOES not keep the Galaxy Note 3 from continually disconnecting from wifi. This only results in repeated periods of no data connectivity.
Turning off cellular data does not fix the wifi stability issue on the Galaxy Note 3. It will simply connect to wifi for a time, drop connection, reestablish a new connection for a time, drop connection, etc... If you are using a data connection during the cycling period, your app will simply come back with a message that no data connection is available and to try again later.
This is a major reason I have discontinued use of a Galaxy Note 3.

Workaround for "An error occurred while contacting the radio tuning service. Check your Internet connection, or try again later."

While Apple tries to figure out what's wrong I came upon a great workaround for those of us that like the radio feature of iTunes. This actually doesn't take long either.
When trying to expand the categories you get the error "An error occurred while contacting the radio tuning service. Check your Internet connection, or try again later." This happens enough to think that the service is completely broken. Actually, it seems intermittent. Try clicking it a few times. you WILL GET THROUGH. When you do get there, highlight all of the stations(or just the ones you want), create a playlist (I use the name of the category as I take the entire list), and paste into the playlist. You can then play the stations EVERY TIME from the playlist. Works perfectly.
It doesn't seem to have anything to do with what version of iTunes you have or what plugin you have. I have seen this on over 600 computers - Windows & MAC - and the workaround is 100%.
Let me know how you make out. And, PLEASE SHARE THIS FIX!!!

Yes indeed, this workaround was posted a few days ago at https://discussions.apple.com/message/17739684

I want to share my internet connection with my iPhone via the usb cable. I have a Macbook pro. What do you think? Is this possible? And if yes, then how? Thanks!

I want to share my internet connection with my iPhone via the usb cable. I have a Macbook pro. What do you think? Is this possible? And if yes, then how?
If not why option available
Thanks!

What Carolyn says is correct. You can, however, share an Internet connection with your iPhone wirelessly by turning in Internet sharing (found in System Preferences > Sharing.) If your MacBook Pro is already using a wireless connection, you can just connect to the same wireless network it is using.
Best of luck.

Help setting up using my airport extreme to share my internet connection

I want to use my built-in airport extreme to share my internet connection with my PS3. I have a verizon aircard and have read on the internet that this can be done (but not necessarily with airport). I turned on internet sharing with airport and my ps3 reads my connection and obtains my ip address, but then it says could not connect to internet due to DNS server error.
Could someone run me down the process step-by-step so I can see what I'm doing wrong? Thanks for your help.
P.S. I have a iMac running on leopard if that matters.

ll959reds, Welcome to the discussion area!
Unfortunately the Internet Sharing provided by OS X does not provide nearly the configuration possibilities as even a very inexpensive wireless router.
Also if the firewall is enabled on the iMac, it applies equally to all ports including the AirPort (wireless) connection to the PS3. Therefore the firewall will block many of the requests from the PS3. To solve this issues, you would either need to disable the iMac's firewall or configure the iMac's firewall to allow connections via the AirPort side.
A much simpler solution is to use a wireless router instead of your iMac to provide the connection for the PS3.

How to share my internet connection on my macbook with my iPhone ?

Hi guys, Do you know how to share my internet connection on my macbook with my iPhone. I have already made my own network, and I allowed sharing Internet , but it didn't work. Can you help me , please?

If your carrier provides the service, go to Settings > General > Network > Personal Hotspot. If you don't see the Personal Hotspot option, then your carrier does not support it.
Note that you'll have to pay for a 'tethering' data plan on top of your normal iPhone data plan.

iTunes RADIO is not working.
“iTunes could not connect to the iTunes Store. Make sure your internet connection is active and try again.” Try as I may, as many as ten attempts, trying to connect after restart, after shutdown, nothing works. Just so …
iTunes STORE not “connectable” with my otherwise perfectly-working internet connection, viable, up and running for all other uses.
Simply put, firstly, I can't connect to the internet when I click on Radio. People are quite suspicious that this is Apple incompetence or your company's famous arrogance for this commonly-suffered problem that you won't or “can’t” fix.
Read the many web comments and you won’t be pleased with yourselves: the suspicion is that if you ruin internet radio on iTunes, Apple will somehow make more money on music downloads, etc. Bull.
Also, thirdly, my old playlist of 20 or so internet radio stations in the Ambient category STILL PLAYS !
Then fourth, I installed the latest available version of QuickTime Player 7.app Version 7.6.6 but it didn’t solve the problem either. I had QuickTime Player.app Version 10.2, but substituted what Apple website said was the latest, LOWER NUMBERED QuickTime Player version of 7.6.6
Fifth, I can't connect to iTunes store no matter what I do or what user group's advice I try. So I can’t buy or download anything from iTunes. Bad for business.
Sixth, I updated to the latest version of iTunes but this weird problem remains. All suggested Apple fixes or user group fixes are useless. Where is Apple’s famous technical competency, vaunted customer support?, and user-friendly product reputation? Get it back, please.
Solve this problem of yours ASAP for us, your numerous disgruntled, dissatisfied customers of iTunes. You can do better, should, and really –in all fairness- must.

NOTE: no password for iTunes exists in my Keychain. Is this a problem?
Apple ACCOUNT ID, and iTunes ID password, works but not to access iTunes with my healthy internet connection.

Try updating your iTunes using an iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe) installer file downloaded from the Apple website:

10.3 OS Upgrade error. An error has occurred while downloading software for your device. Please verify your internet connection or try again later

HELP ! HELP ! HELP ! "An error has occurred while downloading software for your device. Please verify your internet connection or try again later, if the problem persists." appears while attempting to upgrade or install BlackBerry Device Software. upgrading my Z10 OS to 10.3 on both (link & web). but facing same problem again and again. plz help. internet speed is 1mbps and working fine.

I suggest you try the very clean and very forceful AutoLoader method:
http://supportforums.blackberry.com/t5/BlackBerry-10-OS-Device-Software/Upgrading-OS10-devices-using...
Beware that it is completely destructive...the device will be "like new"...no data, no apps, no accounts, etc. Be sure you take a full backup first, as well as make full manual documentation of all apps, accounts, configurations, etc. Sometimes a restore reintroduces the very corruption one is trying to eliminate, and manual reconfiguration is necessary.
You can also use this to fall back to a prior OS if you desire...you can install any OS level for which you can find an AutoLoader. (Hint...search over on the CB site!)
Good luck and let us know!

I get a message "The Itunes server could not be contacted, check your internet connection" when trying to check for Ipod Nano software updates. I have a 1st generation Nano and haven't updated the software for a while. My internet connection is working. Was thre a change in the internet address for NANO software updates? Do I have to reconfigure something in Itunes to point to the correct address?

What version of iTunes are you using? The latest is 10.6.3. In iTunes, choose Help -> About iTunes to check the version number. If it's lower than 10.6.3, download the latest version from here.

Why does iTunes keep giving me bogus error messages. "Your internet connection is not working, check your connection and try again." My internet is working fine. iTunes is not working and will not allow me to download tunes.

using Bridge CS5 to exporting to flickr, but get error message "Unable to connect to Flickr, please check your internet connection and try again." please help?

I'm experiencing the same problem. Don't think I can help, but maybe I can offer an explanation. It looks as if Flickr has changed their API and Adobe will need to update the export plugin to comply to get it working again. I found this announcement on Flickr:

Can I share my internet connection from macbook pro to macbook air?

Hello.
I've tried to share my internet connection using wifi, two computers were connected with each other, but one had not internet connection. What can I do to fix it, and have internet access on both computers?

It's actually even easier than that....
I never had to create an adhoc network.

Somebody suggested clearing the Store cache. I don't know why that would affect the radio. Seems to have not worked for some, worked for a few or maybe they imagined it. Many other posts about this if you browse the forum.
This is happening to some people some of the time in some places, but then not affecting people in other places, or in the same place at different times. You try to guess what is going on. Hasn't happened to me. Maybe it's my iTunes 7.5, or maybe it's luck of the draw since I never use iTunes radio.
