Windows 10 Pro connection to the internet

I upgraded yesterday to Windows 10 Pro and have had issues with internet connectivity. Google Chrome and Microsoft Edge work fine (even though if I run Chrome update it tells me that I am not connected to the internet). Many software that needs to connect to the internet to validate ownership can no longer connect. Spent a while with a Windows rep on a chat and he thought it was a driver issue, but when he transferred me to a technician the wait time was too long..... Has anyone any ideas ? Programs like Norton Utilities, Quicken, Steam cannot connect to the internet.

Hello , I understand that your desktop computer is experiencing issues connecting to your network, and I would be happy to assist you in this matter! You can check for any applicable drivers for your system by checking Windows Updates, or periodically checking the Software and Drivers page for updated Windows 10 drivers. I hope this helps! Best Regards

  • Why won't my Macbook pro connect to the internet, yet my desktop PC will?

    My 13 inch Macbook Pro was purchased back in March of this year, but recently I've been unable to connect to the internet. Within the network settings it says that my Airport is on and has a self assigned IP and that both the ethernet and firewire are not connected. Yet when on my desktop PC, everything seems to be working fine. I've concluded that it couldn't be my router, at least I'm pretty confident it's not.
    I've tried the usual reboot, unplug router routine but it still won't budge.
    Please help!

    Just connected my ethernet cable directly to my macbook, and the internet is working fine. So is this an issue with my router then?

  • I have windows 7, perfect connection to the internet, but it takes forever for firefox to load pages, sits and thinks for minutes before loading. what can i do?

    i have windows 7, the internet connection is perfect, i use other computers with no problem loading pages. With this pages take forever to load, worse then if i had dialup. I think internet explorer is the same, but i don't use it and it's very out of date. I tried a system restore, it worked for a day then back to the same thing. Pages take minutes to load, any page. some time out. i don't know what to do next, i've cleared history, cache, cleaned the computer up not sure where the problem is or what it is.

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem.

    It is possible that your security software (firewall, anti-virus) blocks or restricts Firefox or the plugin-container process without informing you, possibly after detecting changes (update) to the Firefox program.
    Remove all rules for Firefox and the plugin-container from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full, unrestricted, access to install for Firefox and the plugin-container process and the updater process.

  • Safari 5.1 for Windows no longer connects to the internet. Anyone else see this?

    I'm typing this from Firefox on the same Windows XP Pro machine which watching Safari in an infinite "connecing to www.apple.com" window. I've been using Safari on this same machine for over three years. Todays Safari update killed it.

    No Woder, Apple broke something wiht this Update. There are too many ppl complaining post update.
    Anyway, M also suffering the same glitch. Have saved the pain of uninstalling-installing of Safari/iTunes(thanks to other fellow sufferers).
    Now, here is the complete picture:
    - PPL said to clear out proxies or something. I did everything, but nomproxy settings are there.
    - Oftenly, when on the preferences of Safari, i get this Error message for webkit2webprocess.exe has some probem. xpcom.dll is missing. Didnt get this msg tonight though.
    - Downloaded WebKit and tried to run as said above. but it prompts as
    Safari.exe - Entry Point Not Found
    The procedure entry point u_strToUpper_4_0 could not be located in the dynamic link library icuuc40.dll.
    OK  
    Now, tell me if i really need to re-install itunes/Safari??

  • HP Pavilion laptop only connect to the internet when security is turned off

    My HP Pavilion laptop running windows vista sp2 connects to the internet only when wireless security is turned off on my airport extreme (brand new purchased last week). Once I set-up wireless security my laptop shows local network access only and I lose my internet connection. Also, when I try to get back into the setup utility I get the following error message “an error occurred while trying to access the apple wireless device” and I cannot make any changes to my airport extreme set-up. I have tried many restarts and resets, but have only been able to connect properly with my laptop when wireless security is off. Additionally, during my setup attempts, my iphone has always had internet access. Greatly appreciate if anyone can offer ideas on how to fix this.

    Have you tried resetting the modem and restarting your computer?

  • I have a desktop computer with xp Pro windows. I updated from Firefox 3.6 to 4.0 and found I could not connect to the internet using this updated bowser. I had to remove 4.0 and reinstall 3.6 to restore a working version of Mozilla. Why did this occur?

    I tried to update my browser from 3.6 to4.0. On restarting the computer I found I could no longer connect to the internet. I then connected to the internet using Internet Explorer and removed the mozilla browser and reinstall Mozilla firefox 4.0. Again the browser using this updated version didn't work. So reinstalled Mozilla firefox 3.6 and it worked.
    It appearsMozilla firefox 4.0 has a problem.
    My operating system is Windows XP pro.

    Uninstall 2.x totally
    Use CCleaner Registry tool
    Do whatever you need to to nuke the existing Apple programs and folders hidden here and there also.
    BC 2.2 was XP and Vista only

  • Problems connecting to the internet after Upgrade from windows 8.1 pro

    Thanks

    Hi,
    You can also try to install the older version in compatible mode:
    Windows 8.1 Wifi showing "limited" or "No Internet Access"
    Solution: revert your network adapter driver back to an older version
    http://blogs.technet.com/b/dennis_schnell/archive/2013/08/31/windows-8-1-wifi-showing-quot-limitied-quot-or-quot-no-internet-access-quot.aspx
    In addition, disable power management on your network driver:
    Open Network and Sharing Center.
    Click the Change adapter settings link in the upper left of the navigation pane.
    Right click the network connection you want to enable/disable power management support on and click Properties .
    Click Configure .
    On the Power Management tab, clear the Allow the computer to turn off this device to save power check box.
    If the issue still persists, please upload the event log for our research:

  • My macbook pro will not connect to the internet via wifi or ethernet connection

    Hey guys just a few days ago randomly my 2011 macbook pro stopped connecting to the internet. My girlfriends macbook still connects fine as well as both of our iphones and my tv. Under network in system prefrences wifi is yellow and says self assigned ip, however ethernet says that it is connected with a green light but safari nor any other internet using applications will work. I even tried downloading google chrome from my girlfriends mac book and moved to my computer via flash drive but still no go on the internet. Please help me.

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It won’t solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    Third-party system modifications are a common cause of usability problems. By a “system modification,” I mean software that affects the operation of other software — potentially for the worse. The following procedure will help identify which such modifications you've installed. Don’t be alarmed by the complexity of these instructions — they’re easy to carry out and won’t change anything on your Mac. 
    These steps are to be taken while booted in “normal” mode, not in safe mode. If you’re now running in safe mode, reboot as usual before continuing. 
    Below are instructions to enter some UNIX shell commands. The commands are harmless, but they must be entered exactly as given in order to work. If you have doubts about the safety of the procedure suggested here, search this site for other discussions in which it’s been followed without any report of ill effects. 
    Some of the commands will line-wrap or scroll in your browser, but each one is really just a single line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, and you can then either copy or drag it. The headings “Step 1” and so on are not part of the commands. 
    Note: If you have more than one user account, Step 2 must be taken as an administrator. Ordinarily that would be the user created automatically when you booted the system for the first time. The other steps should be taken as the user who has the problem, if different. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this paragraph doesn’t apply. 
    Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways: 
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.) 
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens. 
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid. 
    When you launch Terminal, a text window will open with a line already in it, ending either in a dollar sign (“$”) or a percent sign (“%”). If you get the percent sign, enter “sh” and press return. You should then get a new line ending in a dollar sign. 
    Step 1 
    Triple-click the line of text below to select it:
    kextstat -kl | awk '!/com\.apple/{printf "%s %s\n", $6, $7}' 
    Copy (command-C) the selected text to the Clipboard. Then click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste (command-V). Post the lines of output (if any) that appear below what you just entered. You can do that by copy-and-paste as well. Omit the final line ending in “$”. No typing is involved in this step.
    Step 2 
    Repeat with this line:
    sudo launchctl list | sed 1d | awk '!/0x|com\.(apple|openssh|vix)|edu\.mit|org\.(amavis|apache|cups|isc|ntp|postfix|x)/{print $3}' 
    This time you'll be prompted for your login password, which you do have to type. It won't be displayed when you type it. Type it carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning not to screw up. You don't need to post the warning. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator. 
    Note: If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before taking this step. If that’s not possible, skip to the next step. 
    Step 3
    launchctl list | sed 1d | awk '!/0x|com\.apple|edu\.mit|org\.(x|openbsd)/{print $3}' 
    Step 4
    ls -1A /e*/mach* {,/}L*/{Ad,Compon,Ex,Fram,In,Keyb,La,Mail/Bu,P*P,Priv,Qu,Scripti,Servi,Spo,Sta}* L*/Fonts 2> /dev/null  
    Important: If you formerly synchronized with a MobileMe account, your me.com email address may appear in the output of the above command. If so, anonymize it before posting. 
    Step 5
    osascript -e 'tell application "System Events" to get name of every login item' 2> /dev/null 
    Remember, steps 1-5 are all copy-and-paste — no typing, except your password. Also remember to post the output. 
    You can then quit Terminal.

  • My Mac Book Pro suddenly will no longer connect to the Internet at my house. Help?

    My Mac Book Pro suddenly will no longer connect to the Internet at my house. My son's MacBook connects just fine. My MacPro connects at work, at Starbucks, etc. just fine, but not at my house. My son's however has no problem whatsoever. I assume that since his computer connects that the router and modem is not the problem. And since my computer connects everywhere but here . . . . it is not a hardware issue. When directly connecting my MacBook Pro to the modem or router the problem was the same. . . no connection. Help?

    From the menu bar, select
               ▹ About This Mac
    Below the "OS X" legend in the window that opens, the OS version appears. Click the version line twice to display the serial number. If the number is missing or invalid according to this web form, take the machine to an Apple Store or other authorized service center to have the problem corrected.

    How to restart base station from airport utility? I used to be able to do it remotely
    I currently use a Mac Pro 10.8.4 and have a time machine for wireless 6.3 (630.34). Sometimes I cannot connect to the internet and use network preferences to diagnose the issue. This results in being told to restart the wireless. The airport utility includes the drop down option of restarting but is not clickable so I can't choose it.
    With my prior macbook and same time capsule, etc  if i had problems connecting to the internet I would run network diagnostics to help out. This included clicking on the airport utility ---> base station --> restart. This worked most of the time.
    Bottom line, is there something I am missing in not being able to restart the wi-fi remotely? ]
    Thanks in advance

    You are likely forgetting a step.
    Open AirPort Utility
    Click on the Time Capsule icon
    Click Edit in the small window that appears
    Now click the Base Station menu.....top of the screen....not the Base Station "tab" in the center of the screen
    Click Restart

  • After updating to Firefox 3.6.15, Firefox will not connect to the Internet, even after uninstalling and re-installing Firefox in my Windows XP environment.

    After downloading the Firefox 3.6.15 update, my problems began. Firefox would not connect to the Internet. When I rebooted my PC, Firefox said that it couldn't access any Web sites. I uninstalled Firefox, then downloaded and installed Firefox 3.6.15. I still have the same problem: Firefox will not connect to the Internet. I am running Windows XP, service pack 3. I never had problems with Firefox until I installed version 3.6.15.

    I have XP Pro. I tried installing 3.6.15 and could not open it. I did a system restore and 3.6.14 would no longer open. I tried again installing 3.6.15 and got a message that the previous version had not uninstalled properly. Tried uninstalling.
    As a precaution I used MozBackup to save my bookmarks etc. and also saved a system restore point.
    I then clicked Start, My Computer, drive C, Program Files and deleted the Firefox folder.
    I installed 3.6.15 and it is now working fine with all my bookmarks and addons loaded automatically.

  • I am purchasing a macBook Pro. I want to set up a wifi connection for it. However, I have an old Power PC  machine that I would also like to keep connected to the internet. Is there any way to do this without a lot of hassle?

    Can I link an old Power PC and a new macBook Pro on a network so that the PowerPC remains directly connected to the internet and the new macBook Pro can have wireless capabilities?

    ... Will one of the ports on the router still allow the G4 to connect to the internet?
    Yes. Ethernet is simple. OS X constantly and relentlessly searches for any network connection it can find. Plug it in and it will work.
    Are you considering the Linksys EA3500 or something similar? Get what you want but be sure to read its reviews first. In my opinion Linksys consumer grade products suffered after Cisco's acquisition of them, and their customer support went from poor to abysmal.
    A genuine Apple AirPort Extreme Base Station is more expensive, but not much more so. Its advantage is the ability to be configured with AirPort Utility whereas other routers either use dedicated Windows software or a browser interface. Read its reviews too then decide for yourself.
    If you already have an Ethernet switch the additional port of the EA3500 is superfluous. You could just as easily use the less expensive AirPort Express, $99 before discounts. It has almost all the features of the Extreme including simultaneous dual band wireless, and in addition can also stream iTunes music to remote speakers through its audio port. The major difference between the Extreme and the Express is the latter's lack of additional LAN ports, so just use your switch.
    All AirPort Base Stations support printing through their USB port, and all are guaranteed to be compatible with AirPrint should you ever need to.

  • My macbook pro says I am connected to the internet but won't load pages

    my macbook pro says I am connected to the internet with a strong signal but it won't load any pages.  The internet works fine on my iPhone and other computers so it must be an issue with my macbook.  Any suggestions??

    Change your router channel number.  Most times this works & is all you have to do.

    System Preferences>Network
    Click the Assist Me button.
    In the next window that pops up, click the Diagnostic button & do the necessary.
    Also, run the Airport Utility app which is located inside the Utilities folder.
