Why does it say my wifi is connected but the web page doesn't open?

I would be using the internet for an hour and then it disconnects but says it's still connected. I would have to turn the wifi off and turn it back on then reconnect for it to work. Should I make a genius bar appointment?

It's pretty tough to help if you don't provide any informaton about your system. Please complete your profile so we know the version of OS X and which iMac you have. Try some basics such as resetting your modem and router. Those two are frequent causes of issues.

  • Why does iTunes say it is not connected to the internet when the connection is active?

    No problems running iTunes on Windows XP machine with Norton Internet Security.
    Moved to new computer with Windows 7 - still running Norton Internet Security.  iTunes does not start when iPhone4 is connected with USB cable.  Worse problem is that all internet activity (check for updates, activate this computer, etc.) is halted with message that computer is not connected to the internet... but it is.  All browser and email activity works right.
    Do I have a Windows 7 setting problem, a Norton Internet Security setting problem, an iTunes setting problem?
    Thanks in advance.

    For the device connectivey issues try Andrei Cerbu's post here or see TS1538: iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows, in particular section 5, forcing a driver update.
    I suspect Norton's firewall is blocking iTunes. I can't tell you offhand where to look to tweak things.

  • When I am connected to my home wifi, it says I am connected but the 4G icon doesn't go away.  How can I make that go away when I am connected?

    When I am connected to my home wifi, it says I am connected but the 4G icon doesn't go away.  How can I make that go away when I am connected?

    When I'm at my home, and on my Wifi, my 4G icon on my LG G2 is still present. No big deal. If the bits can flow via WiFi, that's what they'll do.
    You might try (if you really MUST shut off the cellular radio):
    Settings, Network Connections and More networks. Select Mobile Networks and uncheck Mobile data and data roaming.
    Not sure if that will work - but give it a try.

  • Why does my IPAD 1, kick me out of a web page/site and return me to my home page?

    Why does my IPAD 1, kick me out of a web page/site and return me to my home page?

    Probably a glitch in Safari.
    Quit Safari - double tap the Home button to reveal the multi-tasking window at the bottom. Swipe sideqays until you see the Safari icon. Tpa-and-hold until the red circle/hwite bar appears, then tap that to close Safari. You might do that with all the icons to be sure.
    Tap the Home button to close multi-tasking.
    Restart the device (hold Home and Sleep for around 10 seconds untl the Apple logo appears).
    Fingers crosed, that'll fix it

  • I am connected to my remote server and "put files" but the web page files do not update, whats going on?

    I really can't figure this out:
    So I use a different computer at school for web design, I bought Dreamweaver to work on it at home, I get the files fine from the server that I uploaded at school but then I make changes at home computer and connect and "put" them and I check online and the web page doesn't change one bit.
    I don't have the exact file extensions from the computer at school but when I connect and get I have a similar folder(s) set up and then it downloads them into Dreamweaver file manager box and makes the folders there I downloaded. The site shows up fine in Dreamweaver after I "get" so great I thinking.
    But... not so fast, I change the page in Dreamweaver, preview n a browser and look right on so I "put", connect to server and upload. Then I check online an its still the same I uploaded the CSS and HTML and dependent files by dragging over and also using the up arrow "put" as well but nothing changes on the web page online.
    What is happening here I am so confused?
    Thanks a bunch, I mean I can still preview as I go but I really curious why my "put" files don't change my web page like at all!

    Have you tried refreshing the browser, or deleting the browser cache?

  • Why are all my Apple devices not connecting to the web?

    I have an Airport express and has been working fine up until recently. Now none of my Apple devices are connecting to the web. They all find the network no problem and all connect however they will not connect to the internet. The strange thing is that our Windows laptop works fine but absolutly nothing from Apple, this includes a 2011 MacBook pro, iphone 3gs, ipod touch, Apple tv and 2x 2nd gen ipads. I have reset the airport and  set up a new network, it worked for one day and is back to how it was. Any advice would be great

    I seem to be having a similair issue. I have an AirPort Extreme and my iMac connects fine but now my Kindle and Netflix are unable to connect to the Internet? They see my network but just can't connect to the internet?
    I used to have my cable modem connected to a Vonage phone router, which then connected to my Airport. Everything worked fine then. I recently canceled my Vonage service and removed the phone router. Now my cable modem is connected directly to my Airport. Did removing the phone router casue my problem? Do I need to re-set something to get my kindle and Netflix to work again?

  • Why does iPhoto say I'm not connected to Internet when I can access it with Safari?

    I've been having this situation crop up frequently of late.  I'm connected to the internet via wi-fi, all email programs and Safari are active, but when I attempt to add places or email a photo, I get this message and all options are grayed out.

    Lynda,
    You may want to post this in the iPhoto forums if no one here is able to assist.

  • When i ask my macbook air to print it tells me it is looking for my printer it takes several minutes before it finds it and then prints, why is that as my wife is connected to the same printer in the same way (bluetooth) and hers prints straight away

    As per my question, when i ask it to print it tells me it is looking for my printer this takes several minutes before it prints.  my wife is in the same room using an imac also using a bluetooth connection to the same printer and hers prints immediately.  why is this.

    Perhaps you could try this to resolve your issue:
    *How to Reset the Printing System*
    1. Open System Preferences > Print & Fax
    2. Move your mouse over the Printers list
    3. Hold down the Control button and click the mouse (or right click if supported).
    4. Click "Reset printing system ..."
    5. Restart your Mac
    This will remove your print queues but not your printer drivers. So you will only need to add your print queues again.

  • Why does my iPad 3 fail to connect to the Internet via a MiFi 4510L?

    On Sunday, I ran many tests under the guidance of a senior Verizon engineer to try to determine why the Verizon MiFi4510L mobile hotspot will not connect to the network on a third-generation iPad.
    In the course of our tests, we:
    1. Updated the firmware on the MiFi to the latest Novatel release: 2.23
    2. Tested the MiFi4510L with an iPad2, an iPhone 4 and the latest generation iTouch. In each case, they connected flawlessly to the network and held the connection.
    3. Removed the MiFi4510L from the new iPad(3) and re-installed to make sure the password was correctly set.
    4. Confirmed that the MiFi4510L unit was running the latest encryption software that the Apple iPad in fact supports. The Verizon security setting is WPA2 Personal/PSK (AES).
    5. Reset the MiFi4510L unit.
    6. Simultaneously power re-started the iPad and the MiFi4510L.
    The IPad(3) finds and marks the MiFi4510L in the network queue. It then toggles between connected and not connected every couple of seconds or so in the setting panel. One never encounters a check mark to indicate that there is a solid signal. The MiFi4510L “sees” the iPad3 (confirmed by a bottom dot.) It can handle as many as 5 “dots” simultaneously.
    I have tested the new iPad(3) with my home network, which runs on two bridged Apple Extreme routers connected to a Verizon FiOS base unit. It works fine. 
    So … Everything points to the conclusion that the iPad(3) has broken the connection to the MiFi4510L for some still unknown reason. Verizon is emphatic is its view that their unit is OK. If they are right it would mean that every buyer of the new iPad who attempts to connect wirelessly to the Internet through a MiFi4510L – and there would lots of them -- is going to encounter the same problem that I have encountered.

    I am having the same exact issue.  I just purchased the new ipad yesterday.  I can get the iPad to connect to my home Comcast network.  I can get my iPhone and computer to connect to the MiFi4510L but not the new iPad.  I know it works because my son's works on his MiFi4510L. 
    I've also "forgot the network" on the iPad.  Turned everything off and reinstalled the network after restarting both units.
    I called Verizon which said it's the iPad because I can get to the iPhone and my computer.  I then called Apple who said it's the Mifi because I can get on my home network. 
    Allansch, did you ever find the answer to the problem?  Anyone else have any ideas???? 
    I have an iHeadach!

  • Why does my iPad mini refuse to connect to the shared network connection from my mac mini?

    Sometimes it works, most of the time it just sits there "searching" with the little wheel just spinning away. I've tried resetting the network settings under the "General" tab as well as "forget this network" and have no password set, and still I get spinning. iPad Mini and Mac Mini are both up to date with software and have no current updates available. The iPad is only a couple of feet away from the Mac without anything but air between them. I have tried turning of wi-fi on iPad and back on again as well as turning off sharing and back on again and every combination I could think of and it's still spinning. I thought buying all apple products would make things easier to configure but that was totally WRONG.

    I managed to get the connection back! I renamed the network under "Wi Fi Options" from the "Sharing" screen and told the iPad Mini to forget the network. I then restarted BOTH the iPad and the Mac Minis at the SAME TIME. When they finished restarting the iPad Mini saw and connected to the new network almost immediately.
