Wifi will connect to other routers but not the one at my house

This macbook has had no trouble connecting to this particular router since we got it in august, but all of a sudden 3 days ago it stopped connection, just says connection timed out. It connects to any other router, bt hotspots, mobile tethering, just not our router at home. I'm currently connected to the troublesome router via ethernet cable with no issues. My other computer, tablet, and our phones are all connected to the router wirelessly with no issues as well.
I've tried messing with the DNS settings, forgetting the router and readding, updating software etc but no luck so far, any ideas?
I'm on OSX mavericks 10.9.5, macbook pro is from 2010, 2.4ghz core 2 duo, 4gb ram,

I realice the same kind of problems after update to 10.10.2 version. My Mac unable to connect but no problems with iPhone and iPad.
After trying some setup changes suggested by the support team through the chat the solution was:
1-Change the channel the router is using if not within the 9 - 15 range (formerly my one used the channel 1 and I changed to 11). It can be checked at Apple>About this Mac>System Report within the Network>WiFi paragraph under the network ID.
2-Change the DNS servers to 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 (System preferences>Netwok>WiFi>Advanced>DNS).
3-Turn off the Bluetooth connectivity.
In my case it means I can't use my bluetooth magic mouse when need the WiFi connection running, but .......

Certain website will load on other browsers but not the new Firefox

I run a website for one of our school programs. It has always loaded fine in Firefox and IE, but once I (and others) updated Firefox to Firefox 45, now the center screen of the website remains blank. I noticed this problem also occurs in Google Chrome, but not IE or the previous version of Firefox. The website is www.dsjband.com and I would appreciate any help on this matter!

Nothing will print. My printer works with every other program, but not this one!

Nothing will print. My printer works with every other program, but not this one!

I see the printer, in blue when I click on the hardware tab. Actually there are 2 things listed that have to do with the printer.
The first one is called:
HP Photosmart Prem C410 series (DOT4PRIN.... and under the Type it is listed as IEEE1284.4...
The next is listed as:
HP Phototsmart Prem C410 series and under the Type heading it says Printers.
I don't know which one to pick. So when I choose the name highlighted in blue, what do I do to change the name?

My ical will synch to my iphone, but not the reverse. Whats up with that?

An iPod can only sync with one iTunes library. The iPod sees the rebuilt computer as a new iTunes library. To make this computer the syncing computer
- Transfer iTunes purchases:
iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer
- Transfer other music by using a third-party program like one of those discussed here:
newer copy
- Connect the iPod to the computer and make a backup by right clicking on the iPod under Devices in iTunes and select Back Up
- Restore the iPod from that backup.
Note that the iPod backup that iTunes makes does not include synced media like apps and music.

Are the ones from the CD's on iTunes? You may just have to sync them over to the phone.

I created a newsletter using pages on my IPAD3. I can see see it...the icon is till there but when I tap it to open it, I get kicked out of pages.   Tried rebooting and I can open other documents, but not this one. Any ideas?

I created a newsletter using pages on my IPAD 3. All of a sudden I can no longer open that document.   When I click on it, it throws me out of pages all together. I can open other pages documents, but not that one. It is very frustrating to be able to SEE the file, but not open it.
I rebooted and I do have icloud back-up on but am not sure how to restore an older version. I also made sure there are no updates for pages.   Until the IPAD I used a home PC which I still have but am trying to wean myself off of. I wish now I had used MS Publisher on my PC for the newsletter even though I hate it.
Please don't tell me I have lost my Newsletter and 20 hours worth of work.

Try resetting your iPad. Hold the on/off and home buttons together for 7 or 8 seconds till the Apple logo appears.
I'm assuming your default is to save Pages documents to iCloud, and that you had a good WiFi connection when you closed Pages the last time you tried to save the document.

IPhone 6 Plus connects to Airport Extreme but not the internet

Light on my Airport Extreme is green and the Airport Utility on the iPhone 6 Plus shows that it's connected to the Airport, but not the internet. What the strange this is, I am still getting email and message notifications but just can't view them.
However the internet connection on both my iPad Air and Macbook Pro are working perfectly fine, and they are both connected to the same Airport Extreme.
The firmware on Airport is updated, I have tried to reset network settings and restarting the iPhone with no luck. Any suggestions on what to do?

Give me a screenshot of the working network IP setup on the MBP.
It should look like this. I need to see the IP address and you can also copy and paste for me the dns address.
The same thing from the iphone IP address and DNS will then help me figure out what is wrong.
If they both have an IP like 10.0.1.xx then the DNS or gateway (what apple calls router) has setup wrongly .. try setting manually with the same values exactly as the MBP.
If however the IP is something public like 200.100.2.100 and the other ipad is similar the Airport is setup wrongly in bridge and you have exhausted the available IP addresses so redo the setup of the Extreme so it is in router mode.

Battery charges in one notebook, but not the one I'm using (Pavilion g6-1c45dx)

Hi everyone,
I'm using an HP Pavilion g6-1c45dx notebook. Windows 7 64-bit.
This morning I went to take my notebook to work with me and noticed that the adapter input had been bent and the battery was not charging. I assumed that the problem was just hardware, and bought an HP Notebook Smart Power Adapter.
If I plug the notebook into the wall with the adapter, with or without the battery in, it works fine, but does not charge. It stays at 9%.
However, if I put the same battery and charger into an older Pavilion (dv5) on which the screen is broken, it charges quickly with no problem. Although the battery check tells me that this (and the older battery from the dv5) need to be replaced, both of them charge perfectly fine on the older computer.
As far as I can tell, there seems to be some problem in between the battery and the adapter that I can't quite get at. I don't understand why it would charge on the othewise completely non-functional notebook but not this one, which is barely a year old. If it were something loose in the power input on the notebook itself, then I don't know why it would run fine on the AC wall current.
I have also tried uninstalling and reinstalling the battery drivers. I'm at my wits' end and really don't want to have to buy a third notebook in as many years. It is functional for now, but I don't want to be tethered to a wall at all times or using a busted old computer for charging purposes.

Since the adapter pin was bent I assume that there could be some kind of short circuite which might have damaged the connection between the battery and the AC adapter.
You informed that the battery test failed on both batteries... so you have tried older battery with this PC, what was the result? and how much charge was there when you ran the test?
Why dont you try a system restore or recovery!!
I can think of this as last option to eliminate any possibilities of software conflict.

I have a macbook air that is not connecting to the internet correctly. I've had it connected for three weeks, it went into sleep mode, and will not reconnect. It will connect to other wireless routers (I've tested it) but not the one at my apartment.

The problem is not happening with any other device that I have. My iPad, iPhone and another laptop all connect fine. In fact, it's not even the connection. The computer will connect to the net. It just will not open any page. It starts to open and then hangs and hangs. It will not move. Weird since it worked great for three weeks and then all of the sudden, nothing. Click on Safari and I have short hope that it will move and NOTHING! Any thoughts why it would hang up like this and only with this specific network?

This is a known Lion issue, hopefully solved in 10.7.3. But may not be solved immediatly after updating, that was my case.
To make it work i followed those steps.
1.- Restart
2.- Lion 10.7.2 Update
3.- Uninstall netwokrs
4.- Shut down
5.- SMC reset
6.- Reinstall networks
I dont know whether all the above steps are necessary, but for me the update didn't work properly before SMC reset. (I am running a MBA mid2011)
Hope it helps,
Cheers

Airport wifi password--connects w/o PW but not with

I prefer to figure stuff out on my own, but this time I need community help.
I currently have a dual band airport setup for a totally Mac network. iMac 3.06 ghz connects to airport extreme ("n") at 5 ghz while my old mac book pros (G3 & G4) connect to my old Airport express (g) at 2.4 ghz. Also my Epson Artisan 800 all-in-one wifi printer connects just fine to my airport express at 2.4 ghz. Everything has worked great for a year using WPA passwords. (This was set up as a WDS--Wireless Distribution System-- following the info in "Designing Airport Networks" support download from Apple.)
PROBLEM: I'm trying to connect my Insignia Bly-ray wifi to my airport express. It connects fine if I remove password protection from my Airport Express, but when I replace the WPS AES password that has worked just fine for the last year, the Blu-ray will not connect. I thought that meant it was a problem with the Blu-ray device; however the Blu-ray connects very happily to my Airport Extreme with WPA AES password. OK, I could live with this if the Blu-ray wifi ran at 5 ghz, but it only runs at 2.4 ghz and slows down my system from 5 ghz to 2.4 ghz. I want to get the blu-ray to connect via the Airport Express (with all my other slower devices) rather than the Airport Extreme. The problem seems to be in the password for the Airport Express.
To clarify, the blu-ray wifi has no problem with the password on the Airport Extreme and all other devices (macs, printers) have no problem with password on the airport express.
I am starting to suspect that I will have to buy a separate Airport Extreme that I run at 2.4 ghz to run my slower (2.4 ghz "g") Macs, printers, and Blu-ray. But I shouldn't need to do this.
Before someone asks, yes, I have re-entered the password, checked and rechecked, turned everything off and back on. I'm very thorough in trouble-shooting. Just hope someone out there has encountered a similar problem. Or even better has set up a blu-ray wifi to connect to Airport Express.
Thanks!

OK, I've thrown in the towel on my WDS network running the Airport Express and the Airport Extreme. It worked fine until tried to add the Blu-ray wifi to the mix. (Some conflict between it and Airport Express just refused to be resolved.) That added a level of complexity that was crazy making, so I have sent for the new Airport Extreme with simultaneous dual-band--apparently my current model will not allow for simultaneous dual band connections. I bought it just before the new model came out in 2009.
I can only hope that I be able to have every device running on the Airport Extreme without the 2.4 ghz devices slowing down my 5 ghz system. That's the theory anyway. Anyone know if this really works as advertised? I hope so. I have spent days trying to get the blu-ray wifi to connect the Airport Express on my previous setup. I hope I have not paid a bunch more money just to buy another headache. Please say something encouraging;-)
Happy Holidays

Mac mini will connect to AirPort Extreme, but not internet

I just picked up an AirPort Extreme and hooked it up. My Mac mini connects to the base station with no problem, but will not connect to the Internet. Wen using the airport utility it is an amber light next to Internet.
I am able to get my iPhone and iPad to connect correctly. They both show that they are connected to the base station and the Internet. No sure what I need to do on my Mac to get it working properly.
I'm running 10.8.2 on my Mac. APX is 5th gen.

have you configured your Airport extreme to provide addresses via DHCP?
If your WiFi settings are:
IPv4 Address: 10.0.1.4
Subnet Mask: 255.255.255.0
Router: 10.0.1.1
DNS Server: 10.0.1.1
and WiFi is working with no problems
then having the same settings, just different IP address' last digit should work for Ethernet...
Have you connected the Ethernet cable to the computer as well as the Airport Extreme ?
Alternatively, you may change DNS server address to 8.8.8.8

IPhone WIFI works on every other network but not my home network?

Im using an IPhone 3G and it seems that I can connect to every network but my home network. It says that I'm connected on my WIFI settings but then I'm still not able to access safari or anything else.
I have another Iphone and it works well with my home network and is able to connect. I checked the network settings for my Iphone and the IP address and subnet mask (for the same network) is different from the other Iphone. Plus, for the working iphone, it has the 'router, DNS, search domains' information all filled in, whereas for the iphone that isn't working, its all blank (only the IP adress and the subnet mask is entered)
Help?

Things to try (each of these has worked for someone, but none has worked for everyone)
Go into Airplane Mode for a couple of minutes
Reset network settings (Settings, General, Reset) and then reboot the phone (Home and Sleep together until the Apple logo appears
Reboot your wifi router
One person had success by forcing the router to reassign IP addresses
One or two people have had issues with DNS (which would stop you from finding web addresses), and solved them by resetting them in the router
Hope this helps

IPAD WILL CONNECT TO OPEN NETWORK BUT NOT HOME NETWORKS

My ipad 2 has stopped connecting to my home network ( Plusnet ) will also not connect to Virgin or Sky home networks but will connect to Asda Walmart
open network. I have tried reset network,forget network, airplane mode on and off and reset device but nothing seems to work. I have version 8.1.2 and the model number is MC706B/A and would be grateful for any advice.

When you keyed in your password for your router when you were prompted to enter a password on iPad, what did you enter? If your router is recognized on your computer as say, Harry's Internet, that's not the password iPad is seeking. What iPad is looking for is the encryption key from your router. And that encryption key is often a 13 digit code comprised of numbers and letters.
