Mac Mini Can't Connect To Internet

May 27, 2012

I'm having trouble connecting to the internet with my medio 2011 mac mini.I'm connected to my Time Capsule which also serves as a router with an ethernet cable.The time capsule shows up in my network and I can access it without any problem, but I can't access the internet through it. (While all the other devices in my network can)When I reboot the time capsule the connecting to the internet works for a minute but disappears after that.I've tried everything I know, but I still can't make a stable connecting.9The wi-fi connecting works sometimes, but very slow.

Mac Mini :: Can't Connect To Internet

May 13, 2012

Yesterday the connection to the Internet stopped on a July 2011 Mac mini. Running Network Diagnostics gets as far as ISP (green light) and that's it. Red light for ISP and Server. All the other devices connect no problem. Have tried resetting and restarting everything. The odd thing is that ocassionally a page will load in Safari when going from choosing a network connection step to the selecting a wi-fi network step and when quiting Network Diagnostics.

Mac Mini Cannot Connect To Wireless Internet

Feb 14, 2012

I recently got wireless internet. Before, the Mini worked fine connected by cable. It has never been connected to a wireless before. The wireless router works correctly, my $250 PC connected to it instantly.  There is a yellow light on Airport and it automatically populates an IP address, whatever that means. I haven't installed any new software since it worked with a cable, no funky setup or third party anything- it's just a mac mini plugged into a TV I watch Netflix on and that's all. 

My ISP said it's a problem with the computer, the Mac free support could not fix it. I really don't want to pay for an extended warranty or phone support on something basic that this computer should just automatically do. I haven't tried typing in a manual IP address- I don't know what that address would be. If all else fails, I will just run a cable to it again.

MacBook :: Internet Says Have Internet But Wont Connect - Cannot Open System Preferences Or Internet Preferences

May 10, 2009

I have a macbook a little over a year old. It's my first mac and I love it. Yesterday though it started acting really weird. I first noticed that it was really, really hot and the fan was running. I turned it off and back on and here's what I found out:

Applications are being deleted from macbook. ITunes, IPhoto, iChat have clear question marks over icon. There are 8-10 blank spaces in the Applications folder where applications have been deleted. However, data is still there (ex. pictures still there, but no iPhoto).

Internet= Says I have internet but wont connect.

Cannot open " System Preferences" or "Internet Preferences".

If connected to home computer will connect to internet and allowed to open internet preferences but still no system preferences.

If shut down....takes a while to come back on and starts up 2-3 times.

Also "Preview" is gone. Now " ColorSync Utility" opens.

Is this my hard drive dying? I'm tech challenged, so any help would be greatly appreciated.

MacBook Pro :: Unable To Connect To Internet Via Ethernet Or Wi-fi / Internet Connects In Safe-mode

Jan 1, 2010

I'm running OSX 10.5.8 on a Macbook Pro, and today I've been unable to connect to the internet via ethernet or wi-fi, unless I'm in safe mode. Then everything seems to work as it should, which makes me believe that this is a software issue rather than a hardware problem. I've tried making a new account with administrator priveleges, but that doesn't solve my issue. Does anyone have any advice on how I can connect to the internet under my normal user account, rather than in safe mode? I should note that I won't be able to get my hands on my repair CD or perform a clean install of OSX because that stuff is at home, and I'm in college. Also, I'm at a university and don't have a router. I just use the campus-wide wi-fi. Finally, my roommate has no problem accessing the internet in our room via ethernet or wi-fi, but I do. Thanks for the help everyone.

Mac Pro :: Password Protect Internet Access To Avoid Others To Connect To Internet?

May 29, 2012

currently I connect to the internet by doing this: Go to System Preferences / Network. Then I select my internet provider name on the left pane and finally click on the Connect button. That's all. This internet profile has a PPoE service name, an account name and a password. My internet connection uses a cable DLink router (it's not wireless). 

Question: 

1) Does the password I mentioned above mean that my neighbors can't access my internet, or are they able to do that and, in this case, I need to set another password somewhere else? 

2) If I need another password, how and where do I set it,

MacBook Pro :: Can't Connect To Internet - Using Wireless Modem To Connect To The Netgear Wgt624

Dec 27, 2007

I have a blackbook (intel core 2 duo) and I can connect to my landlord's wireless network (they have a netgear wgt624) but I can't actually use the web (Safari or Firefox will just "think"). I've tested the diagnostics and it confirms that my mac can connect to the network, but it cannot connect to the internet. The network uses WPA personal and it has a 19-aphanumeric passphrase.

*Also - would it be possible for me to extend the wireless range (and make it possible to browse the web) if I used my own 2wire wireless modem to connect to the netgear wgt624?

Mac Mini :: Unable To Connect Mini Display Port To Vga Adapter

Apr 12, 2010

So our church just purchased a nice refurb iMac to use for media presentations during weekly worship services. We have a projector with a VGA cable, so I bought a mini display port to VGA adapter from apple so that we can connect our shiny new iMac to our big screen.

However, when we attempt to connect our VGA to our adapter, they don't fit together properly. It's like the screws on the VGA cable aren't long enough to screw into the adapter...thus, the cable won't stay connected to the adapter (it just falls out).

Someone suggested getting an S cable to replace the VGA cable, but Apple tells me there's no adapter to link the S cable to the iMac. I'm absolutely clueless...surely there is a way to connect my wonderful new iMac to the big screen.

Any ideas?

What I'm trying to do is set up the apple tvs to be connected to a router that is not connected to the internet, which we'll call Router B.The Mac Mini has all the movies and TV Shows on the iTunes account is hardlined into another router that is connected to the internet, which we'll call Router A.Is it possible to have the Mac Mini hardlined into Router A (to have an internet connection) and simultaneously connected wirelessly to Router B (so the AppleTVs can pull from the Mac Mini iTunes.)?Or vice versa, hardlined into Router B (non internet connection) and Wireless to Router A (internet connection).

OS X :: How To Connect A G4 To The Internet

May 7, 2009

I am a Mac novice and just got an old Mac G4 w/ 10.2 on it. It has no wi-fi hardware. I want to connect it to my US Robotics 8054 wi-fi router, to which my XBOX360 and Windows XP PC are already successfully connected (all with wires... not using the wi-fi feature of the router).

I've connected it and Safari can't get to the WWW. On the Network control panel it says "Location = Automatic, Show = Built-in Ethernet, Configure = Using DHCP."

What else should I be looking for to get this bad boy up and running?

OS X :: Only Safari Can Connect To Internet?

Apr 14, 2009

I've been using Safari for awhile and it's been working fine. However, the Macheist chat stopped loading the past few days, and I know it's just me, because other people can connect. So I thought I would download Firefox to see if that would work, but when I type in a webpage in Firefox, it would just give me a blank white page. So I thought it was just a bad preference file, so I deleted it, but Firefox did the same thing. So I downloaded Firefox 2, and the same thing happened. Now I was a little freaked out, as you can imagine. Then I downloaded Camino, and the same the happened-a blank white screen! Only Safari can connect to the web.

PowerPC :: G4 Won't Connect To Internet

Randomly my nice old G4 PowerMac, running 10.4 stopped connecting to the internet. Checking the Ethernet settings, it isn't seeing any information.

My cable modem and router are both fine. The router is wireless, and computers receiving the wireless signal work fine. I hooked the modem up directly to the Mac, and it still wouldn't see it.

OS X :: Internet On Mac Not Working - How To Connect

Sep 24, 2009

I just moved into a new apartment, set up new internet and router, but I have trouble accessing a lot of websites, like [URL]. All my friends are using PCs, and I'm the only one on Mac. None of their computers have trouble going to the same sites, but I'm stuck watching a blank screen.

I researched around, but I cannot find a solution to this. I've tried pinging websites, running the command line to flush the DNS cache, but nothing has worked. Is there some sort of system preference I have to set on my Mac, such as lowering security features, to access the sites I use the most?

Anyways, I have a MBP 13" (new model) and I have a PS3.

Previously, I used a Windows7 laptop and I used to connect my PS3 to internet using an ethernet cable, while my laptop was connected to internet through a 3G USB modem. Now I need to connect my PS3 to net using the 3G USB modem, except I'm using a MBP. It doesn't matter if it's using an ethernet cable or making a WiFi connection between my MBP and PS3.

Software :: Can't Connect To The Internet?

Jun 22, 2009

All my browsers(Safari, Camino, Opera, iCab) with the exception of Firefox are dead in the water.....can't connect to the internet. Firefox is working just fine.

THE app WeatherDock is also dead...no connection. Everthing was fine 'till a day ago. Nothing special/unusual occurred yesterday to account for this issue.

System Preferences/Network confirms that I'm connected(via ethernet).

I did repair permissions and run DiskWarrior but nothing's changed.
