Why isn't my internet working with os x lion?

I have a 15in Mac Book Pro. I've never had any serious trouble connecting to the internet.
Over the summer, I switched over to OS X Lion, and ever since then, I've had intermitten internet connection issues. I have an Airport Extreme, purchased probably about 3 years ago.
The other day, I updated my computer software. I honestly don't remember what they were for, but there were about three of them. Since that update, my internet has been going out way more than usual. In order to get internet back, I have to unplug and re-plug my Airport Extreme, and hope it works. Otherwise, I have to open network preferences and re-start the connection process .......... every minute. I've had to re-start the airport 5 times between yesterday and today. The weirdest thing? When the light on the airport is green, it doesn't work. But when it's yellow, it does.
My parents have a Windows PC (from before vista) and their computer connects perfectly fine to the internet all the time. They never have any issues. Please help ! I can't be restarting the motem all the time ! It can't be good for it ...

I know why. It's because the eliminated machines only have 32-bit EFI boot ROMs and bus. Mountain Lion requires 64-bit EFI boot ROMs and 64-bit bus. This is needed in order to boot the 64-bit kernel.

  • Why isn't my remote working with my Apple TV?

    I have had my Apple TV a while now and I noticed a while back that the remote wasn't working with my TV.  I assumed that I needed to replace the batteries so I downloaded the Remote app with my iPhone.  Once I replaced the batteries, the remote still didn't work with my Apple TV.  I reset my Apple TV to factory settings the other day because I noticed that my newer music that I had purchased recenlty wasn't showing in my music.  Once I reset it, there was a screen that came up to set the TV up again but since I can't use the remoted I can't choose English as my language.  In small writing at the bottom, it says I can use my iPhone or iPad as a remote by searching for my Apple TV in the bluetooth settings.  When I try that on my iPhone and iPad neither of them show the TV as being able to pair with it.  Has anyone else had a similar issue or can think of anything that I can do?  I tried holding the Menu and left keys,  I have held just about all the keys for more than 6 seconds and nothing ever happens.  Thank you in advance for any suggestions.

    You can use your IOS device to do initial setup on an Apple TV, but you won't be able to use it as a remote as that also requires home sharing to be enabled. I would take it to Apple to test the remote and/or get a replacement.

  • Why isn't the internet working on my ipod?

    I've had my ipod touch 2nd gen 8 gb for quite a while now. The internet on the ipod has been working fine until right now. It was also working this morning. I am connected to my home wifi connection and it shows the wifi signal on the top left hand corner too. When I open up safari, it says "Safari could not open the pade because the server stopped responding." To attempt to solve the problem, I restarted my ipod, powered it off and back on, connecting to a different wifi provider but still nothing... Any solutions? :/

    - Try powering off and then back on the router
    - Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
    - Do other devices successfull connect to the internet?

    Hello Jesslb23,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    For more information on this, take a look at:
    iOS: Troubleshooting Messages
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts2755
    To resolve issues with sending and receiving iMessages, follow these steps first
    Check iMessage system status for current service issues.
    Go to Settings > Messages > Send & Receive and make sure that you have registered iMessage with your phone number or Apple ID and that you have selected iMessage for use. Learn more about troubleshooting iMessage registration if the phone number or Apple ID isn't available for use.
    Open Safari and navigate to www.apple.com to verify data connectivity. Learn more about troubleshootingcellular data or a Wi-Fi connection if a data connection isn't available.
    iMessage over cellular data might not be available while on a call. Only 3G and faster GSM networks support simultaneous data and voice calls. Learn more about which network your phone supports. Go to Settings > Wi-Fi and turn Wi-Fi on to use iMessage while on a call if your network doesn't support simultaneous data and voice calls.
    Restart your device.
    Tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings on your iPhone.
    If you are still unable to send or receive an iMessage, follow these steps
    Make sure that the contact trying to message you isn't blocked in Settings > Messages > Blocked.
    Verify that the contact you are attempting to send a message to is registered with iMessage.
    If the issue occurs with a specific contact or contacts, back up or forward important messages and delete your current messaging threads with the contact. Create a new message to the contact and try again.
    If the issue occurs with a specific contact or contacts, delete and re-create the contact in the Contacts application. Create a new message to the newly created contact and try again.
    Back up and restore your device as new.
    Best of luck,
    Mario

    Why isn't remember me working on sites that I have been using for years on my iPad but fine on my iPhone?
    Both have recently been updated with IOS7

    Does the iOS device connect to other networks?
    Does the iOS device see the network?
    Any error messages?

    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

    - iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
    - Restore from backup. See:

  • Why LR4.4 no longer works with Blurb?

    Hi,
    why LR4.4 no longer works with Blurb?
    If I configure a book and then click Submit to Blurb does not happen anymore. I even looked at the network traffic and it seems as if the IP is pinged to the contact record no longer respond. I do not understand. This has worked fine all the time. On the computer no setting has been changed. No software is installed that would prevent something. The last book has worked wonderfully. Interesting things, when I export the book as PDF and then upload at Blurb, Blurb complains that the standard by which PDF is not true. X2003 PDF version .... but I am surprised very strong and I really suspect that there adobe wants to put a stop to that one is supposed to buy the new LR version. But everything just a guess. Maybe someone can help me or even has a similar problem.
    greeting
    Mario.

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings      
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                 
    iOS: How to back up           
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    If not successful that means that the IOS update broke compatibility, Since the 3G and 4G iPods has difference hardware, there are some differences in the iOSs for the two model iPod.

  • Why does Server Monitor not work with non-Xserves?

    Does anyone know why Server Monitor does not work with non-Xserve computers? We acquired a Power Mac for a server, based on there being no apparent difference except for the obvious. Turns out there are some differences after all.
    Do Power Macs lack some hardware components or is this just a software thing?

    God question, unfortunitly I dont have the answer but I would also like to know why the software only works for X-Serve....Is there any 3rd Party Software that is similar to "Server Monitor"?
    Thanks

  • Why does my imessage not work with only 1 phone number

    Why does my imessage not work with only 1 phone number? It keeps going to imessage and then back to text message

    Both you and the recipient have to have active data connections, and both devices have to have iOS 5 or higher to be able to use iMessage. Also, they both have to have iMessage activated. If that is already the case, there is a possiblility that iMessage is down. It has gone up and down several times in the past week. Check this page for status, and if necessary you can report a problem with a link in the lower right corner. http://www.apple.com/support/icloud/systemstatus/

  • Why does flash player not work with facebook?

    Why does flash player not work with fcebook?  Whenever I wish to view a video, I get the message that i need to upgrade my flash player. Then no matter how often I download and install flash player I still get the message that I need to upgrade my flash player.  When I go check which version I have, I always get the message that I have the most current one.  I run Mozilla Firefox with Windows.  I don't know anything else.

    This means you don't have the latest version installed.  Update to 11.9.900.117, and Firefox will allow it: Flash Player Plug-in (All other browsers)

  • Hi im staying in UAE, why doesnt my interactive notification work with other apps like facebook?

    why doesnt my interactive notification work with other apps like facebook?
    its only working with the message app notifications.

    Sounds like the iPhone is carrier locked with Vodafone and if so, it can't be used with another carrier's SIM card.
    If so, only Vodafone can officially unlock the iPhone or send the unlock request to Apple.
