Why does my computer not connect to the internet but other devices do

I have a mac book pro, and it has not been connecting to the internet lately.  I also have an iPhone as well as other devices that do connect to the internet.  Why is this? Is there anything I can do to reset the internet settings on my computer, or some other solution to fix this?  I am guessing th problm is not my internet, because the other devices connect.

1. Turn router off for 30 seconds and on again, this will refresh the IP address of the router? You may not have access to router.
2. Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
3. Try adding your SSID and Password manually
Settings>Wi-Fi>Other...>Other Network

    Not sure what version of OS X you are running, but some of the following suggestions have helped some users:
    WiFi Problems:
    Wifi problems seem to crop up a lot on here and unfortunately there doesn't seem to be a 'one fix' solution.
    However, sometimes any one of the following can help although, unfortunately, not always. In no particular order:
    Check wifi security - if it's WEP change it to WPA or WPA2 (preferably, as it's more secure)
    Change the wifi channel on the router
    Create a new Network Location: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5289
    Reboot the router
    Also take a look at this link and the links within the article for other ideas. They mainly reference Lion, but still seem to be relevant to Mountain Lion and perhaps Mavericks:

    Hi,
    iChat uses several port as they are called over the internet to do different things
    Text Chats and Video Chats are on different Ports.
    You probably don't have the port open.
    Use UPnP in your router if it has it.

  • My Linksys WRT54GS says that I am not connected to the internet, but I really am. Why?

    My Linksys WRT54GS says that I am not connected to the internet, but I really am.
    The Linksys EasyLink Advisor is telling me that there is a problem and the internet connection is not working.
    However, my computer and every other computer and laptop connected to this router can get on the internet perfectly fine without any problems.
    Why is it saying my connection is not working when it really is? How did I get rid of this message?

    Probably you need to uninstall the software to eliminate that problem.

  • HT201263 when i follow the steps it does it but when it gets to itunes it says 'iTunes could not contact the iPhone software update server because you are not connected to the internet' but i am connected to the internet ..?

    Were you definitely connected to the internet at the time? If you don't have iOS 5 on your iPhone then the only way to update it would be via iTunes, once updated to the latest version of iOS you'll be able to update your iPhone without connecting to iTunes "over-the-air".
    Before updating however it goes without saying to Backup your iPhone, this should happen by default upon connecting your iPhone to iTunes.

  • When i try to download additional garageband sounds, it states that I am not connected to the internet but I am. How can I fix this?

    When i try to download additional garageband sounds, it states that I am not connected to the internet but I am. How can I fix this?
    I have a new Macbook Pro, OS X 10.9.3 and the latest Garageband that came installed.

    However, I can't see any of the new sounds in garageband??
    Have you restarted your computer after installing the additional content?
    How many drummers do you see, when you select a patch for a Drummer Track?
    If the inapt purchase has been installed, you should now be seeing 18 drum patches and not only SoCal:
    Also, if you open the "Lesson Store" view, there should be now several free basic guitar and piano lessons available for download.

    iTunes is a program on your computer, it is not "the Internet".  The fact that the program runs has no bearing on Internet connectivity.
    Maybe if a little more information was supplied, like version of the Operating system on the computer and version of iTunes, then a little more assistance could be provided.

    you may be connected to the wireless network but the question is the internet working properly on the wireless network...
    what i mean is that i can make a wireless network without the internet so i can save and share files and have other devices connected to the same network access them... but you have to make sure that your internet it running properly... may have to reconfigure the router is your using PPPOE or if it was working prior to your post then try to restart your modem... that usually resolves most issues.
