Wireless expander and page not opening

I am working in a temporary trailer office with a linksys wireless expander extending internet from the permanent office nearby. My airport status bar indicates i have a full signal but I am unable to open a page.
The problem only seems to be with Macs, I (using Safari) and a fellow mac using coworker (using firefox) both have the same issue while the 3 PC users have no problems and are able to get online...
I'm hoping its a setting or firmware issue but ANY and all advice is greatly appreciated

First of all, I hope you have at least WPA security working on the extension. If not, don't be surprised if you are hacked already. Secondly, I played around with those Linksys extenders and they really don't work that well. If you are close enough to your building that you can receive a signal, my vote is the Apple Airport Express and have it join the existing network with WPA implemented.
I had issues with the Linksys drivers for PCs when I last tried. If the product is using things like NetBIOS, etc. in its implementation, the Macs will be clueless as to what to do with it. Not saying it won't work, but if you can get a signal, point and click with the Express works a lot better IMHO than the time to manually configure everything on the Macs and the Linksys.

  • How can i setup pages to automatically open when double clicked.  Currently when I double click it creates cpgz file and does not open.  The only way to open pages doc is to manually ask to open with pages.

    Hi Karen,
    Sounds like OS X has lost the association between Pages and its files.
    Start by quitting Pages, then going to Finder.
    In Finder, locate a .pages file. Click on it (once), then press command-I (eye, not one) to Get Info.
    In the Info window that opens, expand the Open With section.
    In this section, click on the pop-up menu and choose Pages (even if Pages is already shown).
    Click the Change All button to associate all files with the .pages extension with Pages.
    Close the info window.
    Double click any .pages file to check that Pages will now launch and open the file.
    Regards,
    Barry

  • I installed safari 8.0.1 and now my computer is slow and will not open some pages  can i uninstall

    I installed safari 8.0.1 and now my mac is really really slow and will not open some pages. Can I uninstall?

    Please answer as many of the following questions as you can. You may already have answered some of them. In that case, there's no need to repeat the answers.
    Have you restarted your router and your broadband device (if they're separate) since you first noticed the problem? If not, do that now and see whether there's any change.
    If your browser is Safari, then from the Safari menu bar, select
              Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data
    and confirm. Any change?
    If you're running OS X 10.9 or later, select the Advanced tab in the Preferences window and uncheck the box marked
              Stop plug-ins to save power
    Any change?
    Quit and relaunch the browser. Any change?
    Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
    While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your documents or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this behavior; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
    Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
    After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
    *Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
    Enable Private Browsing in the Safari menu. Any change?
    Are any other web browsers installed, and are they the same? What about other Internet applications, such as iTunes and the App Store?
    If other browsers and Internet applications are also affected, follow these instructions and test. Any change?
    If Parental Controls is active for any user, please turn it off and test. Any change?
    If only Safari is affected, launch the Activity Monitor application and enter "web" (without the quotes) in the search box. If a process named "Safari Web Content" is shown in red or is using more than about 5% of a CPU, select it and force it to quit by clicking the X or Quit Process button in the toolbar of the window. There may be more than one such process. Any improvement?
    Open the iCloud preference pane and uncheck the box marked Photos, if it's checked. Any change?
    Are there any other devices on the same network that can browse the Web, and are they affected?
    If you can test Safari on another network, is it the same there?
    If you connect to your router with Wi-Fi and you can also connect with Ethernet, do that and turn off Wi-Fi. Any difference?

  • Why are many of my files in Keynote, Pages and Numbers not opening?

    Why are many files in Keynote, Pages and Numbers not opening? I have re-downloaded the apps but with no joy!

    Strange. The photos that don't display in Aperture will still display in iPhoto but when I view the info the file doesn't show resolution information only for those problematic photos
    Files sizes are almost all jpeg. Once I reference the file in iPhoto, the master displayed resolution for the photo within finder. The photo's original file also opened in preview and photoshop.

    Thanks for this mha007 - I can now open FF with a new profile. Can I copy my settings from the old profile or will this bring over the same problem, maybe a corrupt file. If it would bring the same problem, is there any way I can check which file is corrupt, apart from taking them over one by one?

  • HH2 and HH3 not opening ports

    Hi Guys
    This is more of an FYI post rather than a oh dear whats wrong post.
    We've had the HH2 for about a 2 years or so now and lately have been having some interesting, shall we say, personality traits with our HH2.
    Often, for no reason, the HH2 will drop all wireless signals and will not allow anyone to connect, new devices, old devices or ethernet devices. Only a press of the restart button will resolve this.
    Now thats not too annoying apart from the hassle but another (major) issue we're having is port opening/gaming.
    Last week i decided to start playing a game i hadnt played it years, upon completion of downloading and installation i tried to connect, may i note weve never had any problems with gaming whatsoever with the HH2 in the 2 years weve had it, unfortunately i kept getting connection errors. So being an IT guy myself i decided to pull up the ports for the game and proceeded to open them up in the HH2's manager and assign them to my device.
    Tried to reconnect and still got the error.. i was a bit crosseyed here so i thought well i shall try a port scanner and check to make sure my ports have been opened. They hadnt.. i checked the hub again, ports were listed as open and available in the application sharing section and also assigned to my device.
    I proceeded to disable firewalls and DMZ my laptop, risky i know but i  am an IT guy and know what i am doing. Anyways i restarted the HH2 again to make sure the firewall selection and DMZ applied. I waited and checked the HH2 was up and rechecked the settings all ok.
    I ran the port scan again, the ports were still NOT open. Now this is quite annoying. I went to work and tested the game there on a bog standard ADSL line and the game worked fine. Take it home and not a peep.
    I have spoken to BT and we're getting a HH3 free of charge to fix the problem but i just wanted you all to know that there could be some serious issues with the HH2 and it not opening ports, nor allowing DMZ to function correctly!
    Thanks everyone, have a nice day and apologies on my wall of text.

    Ok i think this thread is going to turn into a help me thread... in fact i dont think.. i know...
    HELP ME!!!
    I have received the new HH3 and with furvour decided to get into the hub, setup the wireless and put the ports in the forward list... i excitedly restarted the hub and connected...
    and guess what.. still no joy.. ports are ALL closed... i have even DMZ'd my laptop and that isnt working.. im not getting the IP address im still getting an internal 192 address...
    Can anyone give me a clue as to whats going on here? pulling my hair out now!

  • Wireless network and bluetooth not working on touchsmart 600

    This has not worked since day 1 and I have been using wired internet.

    Everytime I try to download it is seem to be for a notepad... mine is a touchsmart desktop...
