WEP wont work but WPA will since 10.4.10 update
Since 10.4.10 update anywhere i go that has a WEP security wont connect no matter what yet if I ask the person to flip to WPA it does work. If i boot a windows laptop WEP connects no worries on any of these various routers. It is very frustrating as some of the places I stay they won't change to WPA instead of WEP
Hi again,
Okay... when you click on the airport icon and select the network you wish to join, as you are aware, if it is encrypted, you will be presented with a window where you enter the password. Within that window, above the password field, there is a "Wireless Security" drop down menu. This may list different encryption strengths for the WEP encrypted wireless network (64-bit, 128-bit etc).
Is there such a list in the network you are trying to join and, if there is, have you tried selecting different options and then entering the password?

Ever since I installed MAVERICK, nothing now works, Flash Player won't run, printer works but scanner will not and the computer runs so slow. Any help anywhere?
wqn02h, first thing I would do is use Disk utility to repair permissions. Once this is done. Make sure you have the latest versions of the software you use. Also, check the manufacter of your printer/scanner for updated software. If they don't have updated software there are 3rd party alternatives that will work.

Firefox won't work but Safari will???
Firefox won't work but Safari will?
Firefox was already loaded on my macbook pro but won't work??Firefox doesn't come preloaded on new Mac's.
So you must have gotten this machine used and the person set up Firefox with a proxy amongst other "tweaks" that your not aware of, possibly even remote access to your machine.
If this is a used machine you bought, ideally it would be best to backup any files you have to a external drive, c boot off the installer disk the other person should have given you and use Disk Utility > Erase > Zero and format the drive HFS+ Journaled. Quit and install OS X and start with a fresh machine.
If you don't have the disk, a $29 Snow Leopard install disk is avaialble from Apple (no iLife programs, sold seperatly) which you can do the same as above.
If you don't want to do this, then delete Firefox and it's Library > Application Support > Firefox folder and reinstall it fresh from Mozilla.
Just reinstalling Firefox alone doesn't work, the support files need to be trashed as well. -
my ipod power button wont work but i feel it pressing the button. its not stuck its just defective. what do i do
Try restoring the iPod to rule out a software problem. First restore from backup and then to factory defaults/new iPod.
Then an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order. -

WRT160N, WEP works but WPA doesn't, please help!
Hello all,
I have a somewhat strange problem, that I have been trying to troubleshoot for some time, and still cannot figure out, and was looking to get some advice.
Anyways, I have a WRT160N Linksys Router, that works fine wirelessly in non-secure and WEP security modes, but I cannot get it working correctly in either WPA or WPA2 security modes.
The setup of my computer in my apartment means at the moment I cannot use a wired connection to do the inital setup of my router...everything has to be done wirelessly. So after a fresh factory-reset of my router, I go into the Windows 7 Network and Sharing Center, set up a new wireless connection, punch in the Router PIN, and initally setup my connection with no security. It connects to the internet just fine. From there, I go into my router settings vis'-a-vis' 192.168.1.1, and change the wireless security from disabled, to WEP, put in a password, and apply the settings. I then alter my network profile within the Network and Sharing Center for my wireless network and make sure that its settings match my router's settings. Once again, everything works great and internet performance is good.
However, when I instead change my router's security to WPA or WPA2 using the above method, instead of WEP, I cannot get it working correctly. I change my network profile to match my router's WPA/WPA2 setting, but I either get an ip error, or it won't let me connect to my network, giving me the following error message...."The settings saved on this computer for the network do not match the requirements of the network", even though I am certain the settings on my router match the settings I am inputing into the Windows Network and Sharing Center. There was one time where I was actually able to get it work in WPA and I was browsing the internet just fine...and my network details in my connection list showed my network was WPA2-PSK, but after a few minutes, the connection disconnected, and I got the 'The settings saved do my match' error message again.
Are there any special steps I have to take to delete old settings or some special configuration I have to do within Windows to get it to talk to my router correctly when I enable WPA or WPA2? It seems odd to me that everything works fine in no security or WEP, but WPA/WPA2 seem flaky.
Any information would be greatly, greatly appreciated.
Thanks!First of all do not do any settings on your Router from the wireless computer...it can damage your router.
Connect any computer to your Router and do the folowing settings...
Open an Internet Explorer browser page on your wired computer(desktop).In the address bar type - 192.168.1.1 and press Enter...Leave Username blank & in Password use admin in lower case...
For Wireless Settings, please do the following : -
Click on the Wireless tab
- Here select manual configuration...Wireless Network mode should be mixed...
- Provide a unique name in the Wireless Network Name (SSID) box in order to differentiate your network from your neighbours network...
- Set the Radio Band to Standard-20MHz and change the Standard channel to 11-2.462GHz...Wireless SSID broadcast should be Enabled and then click on Save Settings...
Please make a note of Wireless Network Name (SSID) as this is the Network Identifier...
For Wireless Security : -
Click on the Sub tab under Wireless > Wireless Security...
Change the Wireless security mode to WPA, For Passphrase input your desired WPA Key. For example , MySecretKey , This will serve as your network key whenever you connect to your wireless network. Do NOT give this key to anyone and remember the key
Click on Advanced Wireless Settings
Change the Beacon Interval to 75 >>Change the Fragmentation Threshold to 2304, Change the RTS Threshold to 2304 >>Click on "Save Settings"...
NOTE** : Passphrase should be more that 8 characters and it is case sensitive ...
Now see if you can locate your Wireless Network and attempt to connect... -
Connecting to itunes store wont work, but internet works?!
Hi guys. For some reason My mac wont let me connect to the itunes music store. it works on any website and says its connected to the internet(( which it is)) and yea. i need it to work. does anyone know what the problem is? because maybe its the firewall but ive looked and i just got this mac....so yea.
Where is the web page that lists the current status of the iTMS? That would be an easy first troubleshooting step. If Safari works, but iTunes doesn't then my system IS CONNECTED TO THE NETWORK and that stupid message is meaningless. Yes, I've restarted iTunes. No, I will not restart my computer, it's busy doing work. My network works, and all other web pages work, the problem is with the store. A page with a simple, "Hey, we're down for a few minutes/hours/days)" with an ETA would be great.
I want the URL of the iTMS Status Page. If there isn't one then put one up!

My apple id wont work on my 4s since restoring my phone help
my apple id wont work since i updated the ios8 software and restored my phone. help
Hi,
no i no I can't activate my iphone. Apple ID works on my iPad and I can access iTunes from my computer but I keep getting 'Apple ID cannot be used to unlock this phone' on my iPhone 4s. I upgraded to IOS 8 and restored my phone, now I can't activate it -
It wont charge but it is syncing, I recently updated Itunes, and the charging icon shows up on iTunes
Did you try another USB port or the wall adapter, or another USB cable?
Also see if a reset may help. To reset the iPod hold the sleep and home button for about 10 sec, until the Apple logo comes back again. You will not lose data doing a reset. -
I tried recovery at least three times, and it says that it can not complete the activation at this time. I did take my Sim card out and try as well, because I had to use it in my old phone. I reopened the phone and double checked that everything was plugged back in from the screen change. What went wrong??? I restored it before and everything worked fine. It's not hacked or jailbroke, so I don't know what's going on???? Please help!
Yes, i did. I bought a screen repair kit and it was very simple to change. it works, but its stuck in recovery mode...
