HT1657 i rented a move from iTunes...i was on a plane and tried to watch it, but got a message that there was a problem in accessing the iTunes store. i had a wifi connection, but had to buy internet access to watch the movie. is this normal?

i rented a movie from itunes. i was on a plane when i tried to access it...but got an error message saying "cannot access itunes store". i had a wifi connection but had to purchase internet to watch the movie on the plane. never had this problem with my ipad and never have it when i download tv shows. what's the deal with movies?

It's not normal, presuming that the movie downloaded completely, but it has come up from time to time. I've not been able to figure out from the various posts why rentals work for most but in some cases insist on a connection to the iTunes store. Go here:
http://www.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html
to report the issue to the iTunes Store. Perhaps they can provide an explanation, though you may just get canned and rather inapplicable replies about how to rent or download.

WiFi Connection does not see the internet

I have this problem with my Inc2 and my home wifi. I have a Linksys/Cisco E1000 router supplying my wireless and wired networking at home; it is a standard set up with a WPA Personal2 shared key authentication. I set my Inc2 to connect with the home network, and it reports it is connecting, getting an IP address and connected messages in sequence. If I look on the router itself, it reports the mac addres of the phone as being connected. But any attempt by the phone to get to the world goes nowhere. Now I do not have any problems connecting other devices: laptops, tvs, dvd players all connect and get to the internet. The router supplies the DNS settings, and I presume the phone is setting the router as the gateway (router IP is 192.168.1.1, surprise). but the phone just returns site not available. (Even for the Google page). Other apps have reported site not available messages when they try to run with wifi at home is connected.
Now I have had success at open sites (eg. Wendy's, Panera Bread, that sort of place) connecting and getting access to the world. But I have not way to find out what the settings of the phone are when it 'connects' to my wifi to try to find out what the problem is.
Can anyone give me a clue how to find out what piece is broken here? It is only my android phone that connects in this 'half-baked' way...like I said, everything else ( 3 laptops, a tv, a dvd player, an Xbox) all connect fine.

I have the same problem and I have a router Verizon sent me. I have to turn off wifi every time I want to log on to the internet at home and on the job. that means I'm using up my data when I have free wifi

MacBook Pro wifi connected but won't load Internet

I've connected my MacBook Pro to my local wifi connection and it tells me that it is connected, but I can't run anything on it that needs an Internet connection (eg. Google Chrome, Skype etc.)
I've ran the 'Assist Me' checks in the Network Preferences and results have found the wifi connection to be positive..
I am so confused by this!! Somebody please help?!

First contact your ISP. You need to confirm that the issue is not on their end.
Change your router channel. Sometimes this is all you will have to do.
Power cycling the router. Read the router's user manual or contact their tech support for instructions.
System Preferences/Internet & Network/Network
Unlock the padlock
Locations: Automatic
Highlight Airport
Click the Assist Me button
In the popup window click the Diagnostic button.
System Preferences/Network- Unlock padlock. Highlight Airport. Network Name-select your name. Click on the Advanced button. Airport/Preferred Networks-delete all that is not your network.
Place a check mark next to "Remember networks this computer has joined." Click the OK button and lock the padlock. Restart your computer.

Attempting to Connect to Network Shuts down Internet Connection

I am setting up a G4 400 MgH Mac with AGP graphics to get on a network of computers. This originally came from a college where it was on a network running OSX and OS9.1, and I have added a 100 GB hard drive on which I installed OX10.4, and upgraded to OS9.2.2.
It is very odd, as when I try to connect to the network through the ethernet connection in starting up in OS9.2.2, it will connect to the other computers and to the internet without problems, and does not affect the internet connection. However, when I start up in OSX, all the other computers on the network lose their internet connection immediately when this computer boots up into OSX. I can, however, connect to the other computers on the network, but cannot connect to the internet. I am puzzled as to what resource in OSX must be damaged to cause such a problem. I have tried reloading Tiger, and have used Disk Warrior, but the problem is the same.
I would welcome any thoughts on how to fix this so we can get this added to the graphics network at our school.
G4/1GHz, 7600 w/G3/500 MHz , G4/733 MHz Server Mac OS X (10.4.7)

Only thing I can think of is that the AGP in OSX must have a Network setting that is grabbing an already used IP, or perhaps even the IP of the Router, or perhaps is set to Share the Internet connection.
I'd first off uncheck all ports in Network Port Configurations, reboot, for a try check on Ethernet in Port congigs again.
2nd, I'd try giving the AGP a Manual IP above the possible range handed out by the router.
3rd, I'd make a new User and see if the same thing happens.
If that doesn't work, I'd try trashing these and rebooting...

Wifi connecting to network

I am not able to connect to my WiFi network via Blackberry. I go to WiFi Network>My WiFi home network> WiFi Connection Status Attempt 1 of 3 > Error message "Timed Out"
I never get past WiFi Connection Status Attempt 1 of 3. It just times out.
What's up?

I have an old G3 and have failed to get it to connect to the wifi. Can you tell me how you got as far as you are?

Connected to network, but no internet connection

Just returned from a one week trip to CA with my macBook. Prior to the trip everything regarding a connection to the internet worked fine... I have an Airport Extreme network set up at home. For the first five days of my trip, everything worked fine as well. Connected to several different open networks (offered by hotels and Bed & Breakfasts (B&Bs). Then suddenly I could not get an internet connection with any browser (Safari, Firefox, Flock). At one particular B&B it worked flawlessly one evening, then the next morning at the same B&B, no internet. Yet I was connected OK to the open network. Moved on to another city, a different hotel and network, same problem. I was connected to the network, but no internet connection. In Safari, the blue bar would get as far as the http:, then it would hang there. Now having returned home to my Airport Extreme network, everything seems to be working fine again in all browsers. Any idea what I may have encountered for those two days? I have another trip planned in the near future, and would hate to have this happen again.

I'm sorry but I'm not posting to answer your problem but just to say that I have a very similar issue when connected to my home network through either wireless or ethernet- connection is erratic and pages hang despite showing an excellent signal strength. I have a divided drive and have windows installed on my Macbook. I have no problems on the windows side. My friends who have ipods and iphones have similar problems connecting to my home network. I have no problems connecting wirelessly to any other network that I've tried. This is a real shame as I want to use Mac software but end up in Windows all the time. Any light anyone can shed on this would be very welcome.

Connected to network with no internet

Ok so this is an interesting situation...
We have two networks in two building across from each other. I can connect to network 1 with no problem and access the internet.
On network 2, however, I can only get on the LAN and do not have complete internet access...as of a this morning. I changed nothing between last night and this morning (perhaps windows updates???). In fact, I checked my email this morning and then when I
came back, could no longer access the internet.
I have full access to the LAN on network 2, I can ping websites, but cannot use a browser to visit sites. I have done all the ipconfig release/renew/dnsflush commands that I know of/found on these forums. Other people DO NOT have this problem. It is just
my computer.
Any help is much appreciated!

Hi,
Did you set any proxy?
If you can ping a host but not open it in a browser, then I suspect that your browser settings have been compromised. Check for any proxy settings that may have been configured by malware.
Furthermore, please try to reset your Internet Explorer to check if the issue could be resolved:
1. Close all Internet Explorer windows that are currently open.
2. Open the desktop, and then tap or click the Internet Explorer icon on the taskbar. Changing your settings will affect both Internet Explorer and Internet Explorer for the desktop.
3. Tap or click the Tools button, and then tap or click
Internet options.
4. Tap or Click the Advanced tab, and then tap or click
Reset.
5. In the Reset Internet Explorer Settings dialog box, tap or click
Reset.
6. When Internet Explorer finishes applying default settings, tap or click
Close, and then tap or click OK. You'll need to restart your PC for these changes to take effect.

I let my Macbook die and now it doesn't recognize old wifi connections and doesn't trust internet.

Hi-
I have often let my Mac die, while going to sleep etc, this is the second time that when I charge it back up and turn it on it doesn't work the same. It doesn't remember the passwords of old wifi networks that I have told to "remember this network." Then when I do retype the password and connect there's a screen on the internet that says it cannot trust site like Facebook or Google and sometimes there's "add exception" sometimes there's not. This is on Mozilla Firefox also.
Last time this happened I can't remember what I did but it eventually started going back to normal....But now, I don't know, any suggestions??

How much free space on the HD? You should have 30 GB free for the system to do "temporary work", such as saving preferences and internet settings in browswers.

Windows 7: Connected to network but no internet access???

This is my first post and I have been dealing with quite an annoying problem. I used bootcamp to install windows 7 64bit on my laptop. From the beginning I could connect to my network (Wifi) but it said "no internet access." It was like this for a while until I powered on one day, fiddled with some settings (dont remember what I did) and all of a sudden the internet worked like a charm (my fiddling probably did not make it work). Sadly three days later the internet stopped working again and I did not touch any settings! I am still connected to the network. I updated to bootcamp 3.1 with no luck. I have no idea what is wrong especially since internet works perfectly on OSX. Any suggestions???

Airport will connect to network but not internet

Hi,
My MacBook air started out working beautifully on my wireless network-high download speeds, solid connection, etc... After about six hours of operation however, it has stopped being able to find the internet consistently, no matter what wireless network I try. I use a NetGear wireless hub in my room, and my laptop is able to consistently find and connect to the network (the hub is only about 3 feet away) but it cannot connect to the internet. Under network settings I get the message "Airport has a self-assigned IP address and may not be able to connect to the internet" or "Airport cannot connect to the internet." I know that the internet is working, because the network works fine for my MB Pro, iPhone, TiVo, and xBox 360. In fact, the MBA is occassionally able to find the internet and get an IP address. Sometimes this IP address allows me to load web pages extremely slow and sometimes I cannot even find google. The problem extends beyond my one network, however, as I have difficulty connecting to other wireless networks. I am on a college campus and sometimes can connect to the campus WiFi, but it again frequently connects without being able to figure out an IP address. Some help would be great.

I have a similar issue. Mine does the same thing, but only if in a specific area. If I'm sitting on my recliner with the Air on my lap, then it will connect, but I can't get to any sites. The browser just stalls.
If I move to the table that's 3 feet away from me, then the internet connects without any problems.
It could be a reception issue with me, or something. I don't know. At first it connected at very high speeds. That was before 10.5.2.
I don't know if the Leopard Update has anything to do with it, since my iMac doesn't have this problem at all. And that has an N card also.
I hope Apple is looking into this wireless issues.

Macbook pro connected to network but no internet connection

Hey all,
i have a Macbook pro, running on OS X 10.6.8,
i made a software update, where a java update was made, an HP printer update, a Itunes ipdate and a Macbook Pro SMC firmware update 1.6.
Since then, i cant connect to the internet.
I ran network diagnostics and it says "your connection appears to be working correctly".
Same if i plug in the Lan-cable to my laptop.
Network diagnostics says that my internet is running correctly, but no browser or any other program can connect to the internet.
tried it at 2 different location (home and work) and nothing works. Other laptops have internet connection through the same router and wifi.
restarted router and wifi, did not help
restarted wifiAirport multiple times, wont help,
restarted Laptop multiple times, wont help.
renewed DHCP, and IP adress, i get a new ip adress, and it says im connected but it wont work.
any other ideas?

That doesn't mean anything. You can't telnet to google. lol
The ping you did above shows you that Internet access and DNS is working fine. If it wasn't, you wouldn't be able to get replies. This means that the problem is with your browser. Open up Safari and hit Safari/Reset Safari under it's menu. See if that works to solve your issue. If it doesn't, then it's a plugin or something else (maybe Proxy changes, etc.) which could be causing this. One option you have to test is if the reset doesn't fix it, install another browser (you'll need to download the dmg via another PC and install it on the mac from a memory stick or something) and see if a 3rd party browser works.

Iphone 4 is connected to network, but no internet.

So I'm surfing last night when suddenly, the airport utility pops up and tells me I should change a setting to "bridge" mode. I change the setting as recommended and then have problems with my airport extreme and airport express connecting to the internet. I eventually had to manually enter the router IP address.
Now, my iPhone will not use the wifi signal. It appears to be connected to the wifi network but only works in 3g mode. I've reset the network settings and tried to manually enter the airport extreme IP address and it's still not work.
Would appreciate any help. Also, is there a support document available that explains how to set up a wireless network with an airport extreme?
Thanks,
Mick

I am having the same problem. My iPhone 4 connects to the airport extreme base station and shows a full wifi signal, but has no other functionality, Internet or Remote is not working. Another iPhone or laptop have no problem connecting to the same base station. All the settings in my iPhone seem o.k.
I noted that the DHCP assigned IP address ends with 10.0.0.216 where the other devices IP addresses end in the single digits.
Thanks for you help.
