Why am I no longer able to connect wirelessly to France Telecom LiveBox?
I have a Wanadoo WiFi LiveBox in my second home. When I set it up everything was working fine and I had full Wifi internet access. Then the last time I was here I was unable to connect to it wirelessly. I hadn't got time to investigate so I simply used it by Ethernet.
This visit I've been trying to get to the bottom of it.
The router works, it connects to the Net, I can connect to the Net through Ethernet. A friend's PC laptop connects to it faultlessly by Wifi, so this suggests the problem is with my PowerBook.
It appears on my AirPort menu and when I select it the Mac pauses for 15 seconds then returns the error message "There was an error connecting the the Network '3B4' ". I've tried several times. I've tried rebooting both the Mac and the router. I've rebooted the router from the admin interface as well as pulling out its power lead. But the problem persists.
I even looked at the Keychain Manager to see if I could delete the Keychain component in case this has become corrupted but there is no sign of it there. (all the other Wandadoo boxes I've connected to over the last year are there funnily enough). I've tried switching off all my OS X firewall services, but no joy.
It's annoying being unable to Wifi to my own router when everyone else can
Any thoughts?
I'm still plugging away at this one.
Here's what I discovered. If I log onto the LiveBox's admin interface (by ethernet) and enable WPA encryption the PowerBook will ask for the WPA password when I try to log on via Airport, when I enter the password it then says "this network uses access control please contact your administrator". So I go back the LiveBox admin screen and I manually add the PowerBook's MAC address as a permitted user. Then I try Airport again. This time it asks me the password as before then pauses for 15 seconds and says "there was an error joining the network".
So now I know that the Mac is talking to the router. I know it is getting past the password stage (if I have one set), it seems to be getting past the MAC filtering stage, but then one or other of the boxes refuses to continue the negotiation.
Looking at other forums I see I'm not the only one with problems on the Livebox (otherwise known as a Sagem 3202). I know the simple solution is a new Belkin or similar but I'm damned if I want to let this little white box defeat me.

Why am I no longer able to connect to/through FaceTime?
About two weeks ago I noticed that I was unable to connect through FaceTime. I first blamed this on the newly established Comcast network in our new home. I tried multiple devises with no luck. iMac to iPad, iPhone to iPad, and all other variations with the same devices. I also tried to connect two devices in the same home on the same network to no avail. It was at that time that I was sure it was the network.
That said, I recently tried to connect via a new iPad to one of my other devices,both being at the same location but not the one I originally thought was the issue.
Still unable to connect...
Any thoughts?Are you trying to Facetime yourself? It won't work if you're trying to Facetime yourself. It's like calling your own phone number.

Why am I no longer able to send or receive text messages from my Droid RAZR MAXX HD?
@slotjan49
I want to ensure you're able to stay connected using your Motorola Droid Razr Maxx HD! When did this problem begin? In what zip code are you experiencing this? Do you get an error message when attempting to send a text? Are you using a downloaded text messaging application or are you using the preinstalled text messaging application?
Please try removing and reinserting the SIM Card http://vz.to/1jxFQVZ and retesting. Please let me know so that I can further assist. Thanks!

why am I no longer able to send text messages on Skype
In order to send SMS messages (to non-iPhone/iPad users), you need to have your iPad connected to an iPhone. Both devices need to be logged into the same Apple ID. On the iPhone, go to Settings>Messages>Text Message Forwarding and select your iPad.

After updating to 10.7.3 I am no longer able to connect to the internet.
Updated to 10.7.3 this morning on my Macbook Air (Oct. 2010 model). After restarting, I am no longer able to connect to the internet. I can connect to the router, and pull a valid IP address (sometimes - other times I get an automatic private IP), but I am unable to get to any websites, check email, etc. I am able to ping websites AND visit websites using their IP addresses, but not using their DNS names.
I called Applecare this morning, and the tech walked me through some troubleshooting steps, including:
Rebooting into Repair partition to check connectivity there (same issues, no change)
Deleting and recreating various config files (Networkinterfaces.plist, preferences.plist and com.apple.airport.preferences.plist) (no change)
I've also tried reinstalling the update (both delta and combo), repairing disk permissions and rebooting into safe mode, nether of which has solved the issue.
Also on the network are (Mini, not updated to 10.7.3), a PC, my iPhone and an Apple TV, all of which aren't experiencing any issues. Any ideas?
Thanks.Here is something to try. Boot into the Recovery HD by holding
down Command+R when booting. Select the get help online option.
It initially opens Safari with a local web page, but you can use
the bookmarks on the bookmark bar or even enter a website.
Many extensions may not be available but it could tell you if
it is your Lion install that is a problem or perhaps a hardware
problem.
If you can browse around in this mode, then it could eliminate
any possible hardware issues. If you still have problems, then
the issue could possibly be hardware/driver related.
Give it a shot and see what happens. -

Why am I no longer able to use my Logitech keyboard since the software upgrade y'day?
Why am I no longer able to use my Logitech keyboard since the software update last night?
Hey atinaaw,
I would first suggest uninstalling the software that is already on your computer for the printer. I have included the document 'Uninstalling the Printer Software'. Please choose the option for Windows 8, as it will be the same steps for Windows 8.1.
After the uninstall is completed. Please download and run the Printer Install Wizard. This will make sure that you do get the most current and compatible software for your computer, and printer.
Please let me know if you are able to install, and use your printer successfully, thank you.

Why am I no longer able to transfer individual songs from itunes to my iPhone?
Why am I no longer able to transfer individual songs from itunes to my iPhone? I don't want to sync everything as I have over 2000 songs on my macbook. Please help!
Hi ckuan,
Thanks for the tip. I have tried this however, when I select the Sync music box, it wants to remove all of the music that is currently on my iphone. I do not want to do this. What happened to the old "select and drag" option? That was so much easier! I would like to add new music without removing the music that is currently on the iphone. -

User no longer able to connect to afp shared drive
I have upgraded our server to 10.7.1. After about a week about 2/3 of our users are no longer able to connect to the shared drive using afp. It worked fine for the first week and now several users cannot connect. When attempting to coonect to the afp share it does not even attempt to authenticate. Please help.
Is the firewall service turned off? Can you connect to the localhost from the server itself (afp://127.0.0.1/) ?

You need to check your RADIUS server logs as WLC proces the ACCESS-REJECT coming from that. In Radius log it should say why client get rejected.

No longer able to connect to Yamaha RX-V675 amp from Apple devices
Sorry for the length of this post, but I wanted to get everything down in one hit and I REALLY need some help as it's driving me nuts!
I have been happily connecting to my Yamaha RX-V675 amp from my Macbook Pro (2010) with no problems since I bought the amp a year or so ago - connected through iTunes > Airplay and it also appeared as a device in my System Preferences > Sound menu. I was playing music from the Remote app on my iPhone (6)/iPad (2) and was always able to connect, which I believe routes through iTunes/MB rather than the device itself.
However, I noticed the other evening in iTunes on the MB that the Airplay menu had turned orange, but I wasn't using it so I didn't think anything more of it. Since then I've tried to connect and the Airplay option no longer appears, nor does the amp appear as a device in the Sys Pref > Sound menu. As an aside, connecting to the amp directly via Airplay from my iPhone and iPad has always been flaky - sometimes I would see the amp as an Airplay device but many times I wouldn't, to the point that I have given up trying.
I also have a Synology Disc Station and I can use the DS Audio app on my iPhone/iPad to play music on the same amp via Airplay. Both the amp and MB are hard wired on my network, plus I have checked my router a number of times and the amp always shows up as connected (plus I can ping the amp and access its web console from a browser on my MB), so there is nothing wrong with the network connectivity of the the devices. I have tried all suggestions made in another similar post, including changing the name of the network on the Yamaha amp via it's web portal, which seems to have worked for many people but made no difference for me. I've also updated both OS X and iTunes with the latest updates, but it's made no difference. I can still however connect via the DS Audio app over Airplay every time.
Even though I can connect via DS Audio, the app itself is a little clunky and I would really prefer to use Remote/iTunes as it is much slicker and previously worked a treat. Does anyone have any other suggestions? Any help would be very much appreciated as I losing a lot of hair over this!excuse me, not linksystem, its a verizon FIOS wireless router & modem as part of the package. i was thinking my old setup.
new system...cant edit my posts....? -
WRT54GS - No longer able to connect to internet
Hello
I've been using the WRT54GS for at least three years without any major problems. My set up has two main PCs, one in the basement we'll call F-PC and the other on the second floor we'll call M-PC. F-PC connects via wire to the WRT54GS, which in turn connects to the Motorola cable modem. M-PC connects wirelessly via a Belkin device.
This weekend I had some problems on M-PC, so re-installed Vista. After the re-install I accidentally ran an .exe file on it which contained a virus called dropper.vb.oq according to AVG, which I only installed after running the exe file. I probably didn't set the firewall up right away either. There were no effects when I ran the .exe, it just didn't visibly do anything.
After deleting the infected file, I noticed that M-PC could no longer connect to the internet. I checked F-PC and same thing. I tried logging in to the router but it wasn't recognising my password, so tonight I reset the modem and re-entered all the settings. Still no luck, yet when I remove the router from F-PC and just plug it directly in to the cable modem, I can get online. I have upgraded the firmware to 4.71.4 tonight.
When I have the router in place, I can't connect to the internet, yet the internet LED on the front of the WRT54GS flickers constantly. I am able to ping the router when I connect it directly to the PC and it works.
My questions are:
1)The failure of the router is probably unconnected to running an infected file, right? Could a virus on a computer wirelessly connected to another really knock out the router?
2)Does anyone have any suggestions as to what might be causing the problem, or should I just buy a new router?
Thanks for taking the time to read
Mark
