Why won't my online games connect?

I have been trying to play Shaiya, Diablo 2, Lost Chaos, World of Warcraft, and other assorted online games and none of them will connect. I can get online without a problem, but this is getting ridiculous. The programs install and download just fine......HELP!!!

Welcome to the Apple Community.
If your problem persists get yourself a micro USB cable (sold separately), you can restore your Apple TV from iTunes:
Remove ALL cables from Apple TV. (if you don't you will not see Apple TV in the iTunes Source List
Connect the micro USB cable to the Apple TV and to your computer.
Reconnect the power cable (only for Apple TV 3)
Open iTunes.
Select your Apple TV in the Devices list, and then click Restore.
(You may already have a micro USB cable if you have a camera or other digital device)

Is this played in your browser? If so is java enabled in the browser (for example, Safari preferences, security. enable java)?
If enabled there is it enabled globally (Java Preferences in Utilities, General, check the two checkboxes or click Restore Defaults)?

Because you cannot use a credit card issued in another country. This is how the system works. Sorry
I don't think Apple is striving to be just like every other company.

Why won't my wifi stay connected with lion

I recently installed lion on my imac. Why won't my wifi stay connected after I shut it down

This has been well discussed on another thread here: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3191630?start=2055&tstart=0
(There appear to be no moderators on these forums to make sure that new threads with the same topic don't get linked to a parent !?)
Anyway... The issues appear for many to be related to a specific Airport card type & firmware version.
I've had constant disconnect problems with my Mini since upgrading to Lion.
My Airport card specs are:
Card Type:                              AirPort Extreme (0x168C, 0x86)
Firmware Version:                    Atheros 5424: 2.1.14.9
Connecting to my Time Capsule distributing on:
          PHY Mode:          802.11a
The Atheros firmware version appears to be the issue depending on certain wifi network conditions.
After some playing about today I think I've managed to force my Mini to connect on a better frequency, without having to roll back the firmware to the Snow Leopard version or mess with the Mini Airport card settings (via Terminal) by changing some settings in my router (Time Capsule).
These are the changes I made:
Airport Utility > Wireless > Wireless Options
Set Radio Mode to 802.11 a/n - b/g instead of 802.11 a/n - b/g/n (Automatic)
Set 2.4 GHz Channel to 13 instead of Automatic
Set 5GHz Channel to 48 instead of Automatic
My Mini now connects on:
PHY Mode:          802.11g
Signal / Noise:          -64 dBm / -96 dBm
Transmit Rate:          54
instead of previously
PHY Mode:          802.11a
Signal / Noise: -73 dBm / -96 dBm
Transmit Rate: 36
This appears now to be stable (no drops in the last 4 hours). It's a low transmit rate still, but better than before.
The iMac is still connecting on
PHY Mode:          802.11n
Signal / Noise:          -69 dBm / -88 dBm
Transmit Rate:          216
and all is right with the world (hopefully for the long term)

Why won't my Mac automatically connect to my preferred network?

My router at home is one of my preferred networks but it won't connect automatically. I always have to go up to the wifi menu and connect to Home manually. Why won't it connect automatically?

Try to drag the network to the top in the order of networks.
System Preferences > Network > Advanced > Wi-Fi
To delete the network, select it and click "-" minus button underneath.

Why won't my Macbook Air connect to Airport Extreme?

I just bought my Macbook Air, May 2014, and it's not connecting to my triangular-shaped Airport Extreme which I've had for years. Airport Utility on my computer finds it, it just won't allow me to connect. Went online looking to see if there's something I should download, but I'm stuck.

Why can't an online game I play save the level I have reached?

I like to play an online game called Bubblez on Bigfishgames.com. Sometimes the game seems to save levels OK and at other times I have to sign in again as if I was a new player and start over on level 1. I don't know if it is a cache problem? I have tried a few patches but so far I haven't found a fix. Any help would be appreciated.

You can try to (re)install the current Firefox 17.0.1 release if it isn't working with the current Firefox 18 beta

Why won't my MacBook Pro connect to my wifi?

I have a MacBook Pro running OS X 10.8.5. My ISP is BT Vision so have a open reach fibre modem and a BT HomeHub. All my other wifi devices (iPhone 4S, 5S and Ipad 3) connect to my home network and internet first time every time! However, my MacBook is extremely temperamental.
When the laptop does connect to the internet it takes a random combination of restarting and turning the wifi on and off. If the laptop is left to connect on its own it either takes an extended period of time (30mins) or it simply won't connect. I have looked through the wifi settings but can't see any reason why the laptop won't connect. The wifi network is visible all he time.
Any ideas?

I know how to solve this problem had the same issue, its basically because you BTHome hub runs a 5GHz frequency a long with a 2GHz frequency and for some reason your mac tries to connect to that even though they dont have the techologies will allow them to run on that frequency, making you not connect to the internet. To fix this log into your homehub settings onlin by going to http://bthomehub.home/then going to advanced settings, wireless which should be under it and then click on the 5GHz and turn it off or rename it and click apply. So you can make your laptop connect to the correct frequency. IF you can connect to the internet on your laptop then you can still do the same steps and process on your phone or any device that connects your BThomehub.

Why won't my iphone stay connected to wifi

Just recently my iphone won't stay connected to my home wifi, my mac stays connected
just fine. Unfortunately, I haven't checked it on other wifi's...would this even make a
difference. I have a 4S,software is 6.1.2, when I click on my wifi I get the ole "unable to
join the network "......." . BTW why the heck does it want me to "dismiss" ..everytime I
see it I hate it more!!

Try resetting network settings, under settings, general, reset, reset network settings. Basically it refreshes the connection between your phone and all wireless connections like wifi and cellular. Also try resetting your home modem/router to make sure that is a fresh connection as well.

Why won't my iPhone 4 connect with my Mac Book Pro?

My Mac Book can see my iPhone, but cannot connect to it. Also, my bluebud x Jaybirds work fine with my iPhone 4, but are not seen by my Mac Book.

Well snozdop as you can see, I am new around here. In most online forums you can "bump" an old thread and get new responses, rather than making a whole new thread about the same question.
So I was hoping by pointing out the fact that Panicazi (who seems to have to deleted his profile, maybe because of people like you) said that "This solved my question" when in fact it didn't, because you asked...
"For what purpose are you trying to connect the iPhone to the Mac via Bluetooth?"
and then said
"Apple have never said "why" their implementation of Bluetooth is the way it is.
However, there are over 20 different Bluetooth profiles - not every device supports, or needs to support every profile. Some Bluetooth profiles would be useless on some Bluetooth devices.
File transfers over Bluetooth are slow. For the multi-gigabytes media files an iPhone it would be impractical for file transfers. USB 2 is many times faster."
didn't answer why his "...Mac Book can see my iPhone, but cannot connect to it..." or the rest of his question; someone might respond with an answer, rather than a rude comment.

Why won't the Mac Mini connect to the internet but won't browse

Here's an odd one...I hook up the mini with an ethernet cable to the cable modem - it finds the settings on it's own - IP address, subnet - the whole thing. That's just great - go to the activity monitor - and look at the network - packets going and coming - but when I go to Safari...it tells me that I'm not connected to the internet...that's funny - according to the activity monitor and the network settings - I am.
What am I missing here? I've tried the network assistant - and even my laptop can't connect to the cable modem automatically from that either and it is a never fail - plug and play.
Mac Mini Mac OS X (10.4.6)

Try checking the settings in Safari. I'm not sure how safari work,(Don't have my mini yet) but if it's anything like firefox or IE 6, you should have a setting that says "Connection Setting" or something similar. Make sure it's set to auto detect or broadband or w/e your options may be. (Not sure exactly how safari works so i'm not sure what options you may have there)
If those settings are correct and nothing changes, another thing you can try is opening quicktime or visiting the itunes music store. If the internet works for these programs then you are defenately connected and it's a based safari problem. In fact, sometimes simply accessing the net through quicktime, itunes or windows media player (For windows) have re established my connection when it randomly stopped working with firefox. (I have no idea why) Browsers are weird sometimes so try opening quicktime and see how that works out. If quicktime or itunes connects, reopen safari and check to see if it made any change. If quicktime and itunes can't connect to the internet, then it might be a more complex issue regarding your network settings. (can't help at all there until I learn the mac ways of interneting)
Sorry I can't be a bigger help, like i said i don't have my mini yet (Or any other mac since my old g3 non tower :P). Hopefully just opening itunes or quicktime will be able to help you (not sure what it does but it works for me sometimes). Or maybe the settings on safari need to be reconfigured, and that could be ur fix.
Anyways Good luck,
Wannabe
