Intel Mac :: Safari Not Detecting Connection Made Through Ralink
Jun 25, 2012
I bought a iMac G5 with Os 10.4 from my friends cousin, and it didnt have a airport card so I bought a Ralink Comfast wireless USB card to connect my pocket wifi so I could browse the Internet. I downloaded the set up for mac from their site and it all installed correctly and I connected my pocket wifi to it and it says good signal. But when I go into safari it still says 'You are not connected to the internet'. I've tried everything I can think of and emailed ralink and Comfast but their not responding. Â

I get a signal from a tech school just down the street and i get the signal from my airport. but it is incredibly weak. i cant even watch videos anymore because every 2 seconds it attempts to buffer the rest of the video.
if any of you have any suggestions on how to tweak my computer to make the internet run smoother, feel free to post.

Just got a new iMac and when I use safari, my connection is VERY slow. I have my old imac and other NB's running on the same home network and they work very fast and work fine. my new imac seems to show the address it's going to but sits there for literally min's before it connects or if it connects.

I'm basically trying to make a "save as" version of a project so I can change what I have without risk of losing everything I've done. But every time I save a new version of the project (and even rename it, store it on another drive, etc.), the changes I make to the new version are also made to the original.I'm also not getting the popup "duplicate project" window (which should give me a choice of where and how to save the project) I'm supposed to get when I click on "Duplicate Project." How can I simply save a fixed version of my project?Â

My internet provider says it has a good signal. whether i use wifi or connected straight to the modem its the same, some pages load some dont, always different on what loads and doesnt.  If i connect to a neighbour who has the exact same internet speed and provider it works perfectly fine. Ever since i did a software update 3 or 4 days ago it has been happening.

Yahoo seems to have made a change that only impacts Safari. Yahoo starts to load and then stops. Resetting Safari, removing cookies and clearing the cache enables sign in but no links from the start page load. Some give a message "loading" and then "Content unavailable try again later." Firefox works OK with Yahoo and Safari works on other sites.

This is not a Canon problem as other computers (PCs) detect the scanner and work fine. This was originally the easiest multi-function printer/scanner setup I ever did.The scanning is easy and worked fine for a couple of months, then several days ago it gave "scanner not available" message,tried deleting the scanner and then adding, now it will not detect the scanner ONLY the printer

In OSX 10.7.4 all sections of iWork fail to initiate and quit with an error message. Each time a message page is sent to Apple saying that the program has quit followed by pages of data. Searching discussion groups has failed to provide a conclusive answer.

This is the first time I've tried using my built-in iSight since the 10.6.5 update, and on any site I've tried it, it doesn't show USB Video Class Video, the correct option, as a selectable option. Nor is DV Video and option. Only Built-In iSight, and two "Google" cams, none of which work. Actually, on Tinychat, Built-In iSight works for the thumbnail for picking the cam option, but won't work once selected. But that's always been the case; the proper option won't show as a thumb but works fine once selected. I hope I'm making sense.
Any solutions? Adobe says I'm running version 10,1,102,64.
Update: It seem either uninstalling Google's video and audio adapters </Library/Application Support/Google/GoogleVoiceandVideoUninstaller.app> or installing a beta version of Flash [URL] solves the issue.

I'm having major problems with airport. It seems that lately its become less and less effective at detecting wireless networks. I need to be sitting a few feet away from a router for my macbook (10.4.11) to detect it. This occurs with all networks. I never had this problem until the past year and its seemed to get progressively worse. I'm not sure if this is a confrontational or hardware issue.

Safari will not connect to https sites like .mac or hotmail.
An error on .mac says the certificate was signed by an unknown certifying authority.
Other secure sites says safari was unable to establish a secure connection to...
Yes the date and time are correct.
Firefox and Netscape both work for secure sites.

For several of the accounts on my iMac, I've set parental controls to "try and limit access to adult content" When I do this, Safari stops being able to access "https" websites such as gmail.com etc. If I set the parental controls setting to "unrestricted access" the problem goes away. I don't want the kids to have "unlimited acess" but I do want to let them access "https" sites as appropiate. I've seen several old threads on this subject, but nothing so far that I could find related to it being caused by the parental controls or how to fix it. I'm running OS X 10.6.3 on an iMac quad core. I'm also very new to the Mac world (6 month) so I'm pretty much at the beginner level.

Today I was working normally on my MacBook and then suddenly the page www.fanfiction.net stopped working, and everytime I reloaded or tried a different link of the same page I got the following message: "Safari can't open the page url... because the server unexpectedly dropped the connection. This sometimes occurs when the server is busy. Wait for a few minutes, and then try again."I cleaned my cache and tried opening the webpage with Firefox and Opera and I get the same result.I have a Windows 7 partition and the webpage won't work either. While looking for a solution I notice that many webpages are not opening and I get the same message. I see that this has happened to many people, but I have not found a solution. I'm in China right now, it's the only real difference I can think, but I have been here almost a week and this happened until now.Mi mac is the MacBook Pro 15 inch and it's running with Mac OS X Lion 10.7. The system is not showing any updates to Safari.

I just picked up my new Mac Pro, and have it set up in the living room, much to my girlfriends' chagrin, while I wait for my new monitor to arrive. Anyways, I have it plugged into the TV so I thought to myself, 'why not plug it into my surround set as well?' I went ahead and plugged my stereo receiver into my Mac Pro's Optical Out port, but the Pro doesn't seem to be detecting my stereo, as I cannot select the digital audio as a device for sound output. So, in the meantime, I am stuck with 2.1 through the line out jack.

I've got Windows 7 RC 64-bit installed on a 2.53 GHz MacBook Pro (dual boot using Boot Camp) with an ExpressCard slot. I also got a FileMate SolidGO 3FMS4D48M-WR 48GB ExpressCard SSD; the drive works beautifully under OS X, but is not recognized at all by Windows 7 when it's in the ExpressCard slot. In Device Manager, the yellow caution icon appears in front of the Standard ACHI 1.0 Serial ATA Controller under IDE ATA/ATAPI controllers. The drive does not show under Disk drives or in Disk Manager.
The corresponding Device Status message is: "This device cannot find enough free resources that it can use (Code 12). If you want to use this device, you will need to disable one of the other devices on this system." The drive is recognized as SATA under Mac OS X and also works fine in Windows when plugged into a USB port instead of the ExpressCard slot (at which point it is not treated as SATA, but USB). I've tried the latest Boot Camp drivers, but that has no effect.

I want to import videos from my vidcam into final cut studio, so I can play with it there. However my new mac can't detect the vidcam, it does however detect when the vidcam is plugged in, however it only recognizes it as a usb type device not as a vidcam. So I phoned apple and asked for assistance, they suggested updating the software(which i did). This however did not help, as the vidcam is still just a "memory space". I can access the videos but they are in MTS format, which is not supported in final cut studio and I would prefer to work directly from the vidcam and not use a video converter to convert them first. So basically to put it in one sentence how do I get my mac to recognize my sony hdr sr12 video camera, as a camera and not a unknown usb type device.

Okay I'm thinking that my iMac 20" (a1224) has a virus after I started playing with Limewire...When I press the power button the only thing I receive is the Apple logo and the spinner below it as if something is about to happen but it never does. I even let it sit overnite hoping for something and no results. I purchased the computer from some random so there is no disc.

I am trying to install Ubuntu on Mac and for that I've created a bootable USB drive with Ubuntu on it. Now when I'm restarting my Mac and pressing Option key on keyboard, it is not giving me any option to boot from USB. I don't think its getting detcted even. USB is currently formatted in FAT format. Just wondering if there is any other format required?

Recently I am having issues with the screensaver setting, it comes on every time I reach the log-in page while booting, and instead of turning on after 'x' minutes of inactivity it just gets turned on after 'x' minutes. Means if I slide it to 5 minutes, I get the screensaver on after 5 mins, be it doing work or watching a movie in it.
