• Windows XP does not detect any internet at all despite the computer with the modem to work.

  I recently installed Windows XP Professional on my new iMac via bootcamp.  While Windows itself works fine, it won't connect to internet at all.  Despite being connected to a modem ADSL via a Ethernet cable, and also have wireless internet, Windows does not detect any signal.  On the internet in the Control Panel, all connections page that appears is "1394 connection" under the heading "LAN or Internet high speed."  I tried several times to put in place a new internet connection through the Setup Wizard and everytime, no internet is detected.

  I know that the modem works because all the other computers in my house are fine online, including on the side of Mac of the iMac.  If anyone has an idea as to how I should resolve this problem, your help would be greatly appreciated!

  Thank you

  Daniel

  Moreover, these are things I've already tried:

  I've tried to manually and automatically set up an internet connection
  I spoke with my ISP, the modem works fine
  I have re-partitioned the hard drive and reinstalled XP

  The "1394 connection" is the IEEE 1394 (FireWire) from your computer.  There should be cable system and under the heading wireless connections "LAN or Internet high speed."   There is no need to run the Network Setup Wizard or set up a new connection.

  Open the Device Manager (Start > run > devmgmt.msc ) and go to the network adapters section.  You may need to install the drivers for them.

• Unlock with Apple Watch does not

  Hello

  I'm running a MacBook Air mid-2013 with macOS Sierra, with a 2nd Gen Apple Watch watchOS3 running. I'm on the same Apple for my Air ID, see and iPhone (6 s).

  But unlock with Apple Watch does not work on my Air. I activated 2 factor authentication. I checked the box that allows to unlock with Apple Watch. Everything seems to be kosher.

  When I close and reopen my Air, "Unlock with Apple Watch" appears for about 10 seconds, and then I type my password.

  Help? Thank you!

  I Don t know why.

• Impossible to activate auto unlock with Apple Watch.

  Hello

  I can't seem to activate auto unlock with my Apple Watch on my MBA mid-2013. I turned and on two-factor auth. I also signed out and to iCloud on all devices. Restart all devices. I always get the message to turn off two factors in order to operate. Puzzled seriously here. I'm also in the United States, a region that is supported by two factors.

  If anyone has had a similar problem or found a solution, I would like to know.

  I always get the message to turn off two factors in order to operate.

  Just to be sure--is the message really say "turn off the two factors...". ' or 'disable authentication in two steps?  It will not work with older two-step authentication.

• Auto unlock with Apple Watch

  Dear support team Apple,

  I have problem with MacOS Sierra feature "Auto Unlock with Apple Watch". I upgraded my MacBook Pro 2015 until the latest Version of the OS and Apple Watch until the OS 3.

  I followed the instructions automatically unlock your Mac with your Apple Watch - Apple Support

  As a result:

  1. two factor authentication enabled on iCloud account;

  2. pass code activated on Apple Watch;

  3. I use iCloud even on Mac and on the watch.

  But the option is not in the system preferences. Attached printscreen.

  I have exactly the same problem. I checked that I have two factor, not two steps of authentication. I have a the same devices, 6 2015 s of MacBook Pro, Apple Watch and iPhone more. The option does not appear for me either.

• Turn on auto cannot unlock with Apple Watch

  Hi guys,.

  I need help here.  I'm on macOS Sierra on a MacBook Pro (retina, 13 inches, end of 2013).  I actually had auto unlock with my Apple Watch two days ago.  But then I did a stupid thing yesterday and had to restore the MacBook OSX Maverick and re-upgrade to Sierra.  I can't activate longer auto unlock with Apple Watch now and it's really frustrating.

  Thanks in advance for your help.

  Don't feel alone, there are a lot of problems. Very inconsistent behavior.

• I still have to type my password after I enabled unlocking with Apple Watch.

  Well, I did everything correctly. Or at least I think. But for some reason, my mac still asks me a password to unlock. As I opened the cover, I get the message "Unlock with Apple Watch". But he invites me just after my password.

  Did someone else faced with something similar or is that what I'm doing wrong?

  Thank you

  I have the same question.

  I filled all the criteria and even turned off the FileVault nothing helps. The MacBook Pro (with OS Sierra end 2013) seems to want to "" be unlocked, but the watch (1st generation with OS 3) shows absolutely no sign of communication with the Mac. All devices are on the same wifi and Bluetooth is turned on.

  I give up!

• Unlock with Apple Watch disappeared

  After the upgrade to sierra today I wanted to turn the unlock with feature Apple Watch.

  First of all I saw under security settings. Once turned on, I invited myself I go posting two-step verification of two factors. I did this, but when I tried to turn on the unlocking function again it did not show in the settings > Security? How is it.

  I rebooted several times, as well as the loged out and in again once to iCloud on my mac.

  Aid for the lists of system preferences, the release device is hidden, if the watch is not coupled.

  

  To verify if your watch is always associated with iPhone and also check if the Bluetooth is always enabled on the Mac and watch.

  After you have changed your two-factor authentication, restart the iPhone and restart the shows it to be near the matched iPhone; both devices must be signed in iCloud, using new two-factor authentication.

• 2SV v. 2FA for Auto unlock with Apple Watch

  Try to set up the auto unlock with Apple Watch on my MacBook Air (fall 2013) after the installation of Sierra. Get this message:

  

  Off the 2SV using applied.apple.com

  

  ... and still get the same message "2FA is required" box "Security & Privacy".

  What I am doing wrong?

  P.S., rescue email Apple ID has not yet been verified, because it belongs to my sister who lives in a very different time zone, but I don't see how this should matter for the automatic implementation of release.

  The message is mainly to tell you that you must enable two-factor authentication, is not that you should disable 2SV. You will need to disable 2SV before you can activate 2FA.

  You should always activate 2FA it to AppleID.apple.com

  I don't know why you don't see the option to activate 2FA here on the Security section. You have a device running El Capitan or later, or a device running iOS 9 or a later version in your list of devices?

• Auto unlock with Mac OS and Apple Watch

  I know that you need a Mac 2013 or later with Mac OS, a Apple Watch with watch OS 3 and two factor authentication (not two authentication step) to activate this feature, but for some reason, it does not appear in my system preferences.

  Any ideas?

  

  

  Greetings MetallicAsh,

  Thank you for using communities of Apple Support. It seems you want to unlock your Mac with your Apple Watch. Looks like you are already assured of a large number of parameters.
  I recommend reading this article, it explains what the parameters are still needed.
  
  

  Make sure that your devices are configured as follows:

  • Your Mac has Bluetooth and Wi - Fi enabled.
  • Your Mac and Apple Watch are connected to iCloud with the same Apple ID.
    On your Mac, choose Apple () menu > System Preferences, and then click iCloud.
    On your iPhone, open the Apple Watch app, then go to general > Apple ID.
  • Your Apple Watch uses a password.
    On your iPhone, open the Apple Watch app, then type the access code.
  • Your Mac has "allow your Apple Watch unlock your Mac" selected in Security & Privacy preferences.
    Choose the Apple menu > System Preferences, click on Privacy & Security, then select the general tab.

• Automatic unlocking with Apple Watch active but expire

  I've activated automatic unlocking on my Mac (Macbook Air 6.1) successfully, I had my first gen Apple Watch upgraded to watch OS 3 and when I opened my Macbook, it says «Unlock with Apple Watch...» ». After a few seconds, however, I get a spinny wheel thought and then it expires and I get the password prompt. I tried to restart my Mac and my watch, but don't know what else to do here?

  As far as I know I have everything set up properly - 2-factor authentication, the right operating system, the hardware supports, but it just times out. Anyone have any idea why this could be or a potential solution?
