URGENT: How to connect iPhone to internet over ad-hoc wi-fi network from MacBook?
I need to access the internet over wi-fi on my iPhone, but there is no wi-fi network I can use, so I am creating one with my MacBook. I choose "Create Network…" from the Airport menu on my Macbook, and I am able to connect my iPhone to the ad-hoc network I have made, but I can't access the internet with it, for some reason.
I think this might have something to do with one of the following two things, but I'm not sure:
1.) In system prefs > network on my Macbook, it says:
"Wi-Fi has the self-assigned IP address 169.254.83.143 and will not be able to connect to the Internet."
2.) Also in system prefs > network, under 802.1X, it says: "Authentication server is not responding".
Any help will be deeply appreciated.
To add more, when looking at the network (you have to be on it or near it) in your list, click the blue arrow next to it to get the settings for that network. On that screen you can tell it to forget.

IPhone 2G doesn't connect to the Internet over the O2 and edge network??
Hi people,
My iPhone won't connect to the Internet through the O2 and edge network, it used to work? Maybe an update has done something?? Any ideas to resolve my issue would be greatfully appreciated!! I have got software version 3.0 at the moment.

CarlI would try a Reset first: Hold down the home and sleep buttons, wait for the Apple logo, let go of the buttons.

How to connect a printer (wireles) to an existing mac-AE network from a PC?
I have an airport extreme configured network that works perfectly well. That means that my mac connection to Internet is fine and I can print documents wireless without a problem from my mac.
Recently I got a PC computer (OS Windows 7). Since the beginning, it recognized the wireless network and, after input the network password, it connects as fine as the mac does to Internet.
The problem came up when I tried to configure the printer to print wireless from the new PC, as I do with the mac. Simply, I have not managed to do so. I only can print with the cable from the new PC.
I have not installed any software related to the airport extreme base (airport utility). I thought that it was unnecessary since I could connect to the existing network with the PC since the beginning. But I do not know if that is required.
If someone know how to proceed (the steps) to successfully configure the PC/Printer to print wireless in the existing Mac/AirportExtreme/Printer network, I would be very greatful.
Thank you!

I have 3 iPhones, one iPad and 2 PC's, all using the same iTunes account. I want to be able to have each iPhone keep their own list of accounts and music list and the I pad different as well. I want to 2 PC's music list to match. How do I do this?
Additionally, when I connected iPhone #3 to one PC, it removed the contacts from #3 and replaced it with contacts from iPhone #2. How do I get those contacts back and prevent this from happening again?Hey joshuafromisr,
If you resintall iTunes, it should fix the issue. The following document will go over how to remove iTunes fully and then reinstall. Depending on what version of Windows you're running you'll either follow the directions here:
Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP

My ATV gen 2 won't connect to the internet over a wireless BT home hub 5 network
My ATV gen 2 won't connect to the internet over a wireless BT home hub 5 network. I've recently upgraded to a BT HH5 and now I cannot airplay with my 2011-MBP, and the ATV will not connect to the iTunes store or software update.
Ok, thanks (not sure I know what you mean!). I have seen a solution that tells me to rename the two SSID's? Is that what you mean? All my devices are wireless, and all can connect to the internet except the Apple TV. Now I have disabled the 5GHz channel all devices are on the 2.4GHz channel and all work fine, including the Apple TV and airplay between my MBP and ATV.

I am using several Macs running Yosemite. I was recently “upgraded” to Xfinity’s new cable modem which can support both 2.5Ghz and 5Ghz networks at the same time. Actually I can connect to the internet over both with a satisfactory bump in speed for the Ghz. However when I connect to the 5Ghz the Time capsule disappears from the Airport Utility and claims to be Not Found. Is there something I have done wrong or just a Yosemite Teething Problem
First restart your mac and try again.
It could be
that the router and the TC are interfering wirelessly with each other.
You can check this by pressing the option key while clicking on the wireless icon on your screen
Open Wireless Diagnostics
enter your user password
Press CMD 4 then Scan
You will see all the wireless channels being used in your location and you can check if they are on the same channel
Make the SSID for the TC simple like MyTC
Set 5Ghz to auto
Update the TC
Try again
