Anyone having issues with their MacBook Pro Retina losing network connections?

I have been having a problem in which my internet connection, which will be working normally prior to closing the Mac, will not reconnect after it's woken up.  I have to go so far as to reset my Time Machine AND Macbook to restore the connection.  I noticed the most recent update for Mountain Lion also included some mention of a specific patch for Macbook Pro Retina's.  Does anyone know of a documented issue?

Some recent updates from Apple might affect your problem, but I can't be sure.  How long have you been having the problem?
I have to go so far as to reset my Time Machine AND Macbook to restore the connection.
Don't confuse "Time Capsule", an Apple Wi-Fi base station, with "Time Machine", backup software included with OS X since version 10.5.  Your problem involves the former, not the latter.

  • Having issues with 13" MacBook Pro. Running very slow and blank screen and sleep mode.

    Bought my MBPro summer 2009. About a month / 6 weeks ago it began to run extremely slow at points. Now it is running poorly and getting very slow on a daily basis, to the point where it will not open applications, documents or even web pages for in excess of 5 minutes. I'm beginning to lose patience!
    Also at the exact same time of these performance issues occuring, my MacBook Pro will not awaken from sleep mode when the lid is closed. Showing a blank dark screen and having to hard reset in order to boot up my system again and get it running.
    What is the best solution in order to resolve these issues?
    Your help is greatly appreciated.

    Did you run Disk Utility>First Aid?  If so what were the results?  This is a copy of mine, note that the bottom line says:  The partition map appears to be OK:

  • ISight issues with new macbook pro Retina ?

    Hi all, since I have my new MPB with Retina display I have been having some issues with the isight camera, when it first boots in photobooth of facetime sometimes the screen (from the camera) is all blue or green and with some weird line and then it stabilizes for a while but the image is all grainy and looks cheap. The guy at the apple hotline told me to reset the SMC and it seemed to have improved a bit but it's still not that good !
    Any ideas on what could be happening ?
    Thank you all

    You're welcome - I Googled "Macintosh webcams" and came up with quite a few different units.
    Good luck,

  • Anyone else having multiple issues with their Macbook Pro with the Lion Update?

    I had beachballing and the wifi will not turn on. HELP

    Unfortunately, I think that the fact that you mentioned the presence of anti-virus software has dragged this discussion a bit off course. As you say that WebRoot has been installed for a year, while the problem just started recently (and not right after upgrading to Mavericks), I don't believe that the anti-virus software has anything to do with it.
    As for what the problem might be, my best guess for something with such a sudden and unexplainable onset is a dying hard drive. Do you have backups of your data? If not, that could become a very serious problem. First priority needs to be figuring out a way to back up your data.
    Once your data is backed up, check the hard drive's SMART status:
    If it checks out fine (ie, says "Verified"), try repairing the hard drive with Disk Utility.

  • Is anyone having issues with their phones deleting their notes randomly? Also when you delete an email, you have to delete up to 5 times sometimes before it actually deletes from your phone?

    I can make a note and It deletes it, sometimes a week later sometimes 3-5 weeks later. BUT there's 1 note I've had for about 9 months and it's still there. I've had it since before the new iOS 7 system... And with the emails I can delete then and then they pop back up, delete again and there they are again. But it's not all the time. Just whenever it feels like it. And my phone isn't old, I've only had it about 3 months now. Is anyone else having these issues? They're driving me nuts!

    Give it a go
    Hold the cmd key (next to the spacebar) & try clicking a few messages. Command key looks a bit like a cloverleaf.
    There are other shortcut keys as I mentioned before just try a few key combinations & you'll get the hang of it.
    Once the messages are selected you can either drag them into a Mailbox or use the menus to perform operations like 'Mark as read' or 'Mark as junk' etc.
    You may want to show the mailbox list (if it is hidden). This is in the 'View menu > Show Mailbox list'. It should make it easier to move the messages around.
    The shift key is the one that lets you select a range, just select the starting message, then hold shift & select the end message.
    I think it is harder to explain in words, so try it out you'll get to grips with it.
    Good luck.

  • Issues with 13" Macbook Pro Retina sleeping/waking and starting up?

    I am having 2 issues which are driving me insane.
         1. It will not wake after the lid is closed for more than an hour or 2 and I have to hold the power button down to turn it off and startup again. - SO ANNOYING!
         2. Occasionally it will not startup. It makes it to the apple logo screen with the spinning thing and just stays on that screen (I have left it overnight and nothing      changed), and I am forced to hold the power button down to turn it off and startup again.
    Not impressed, its been like this since day 1. Its only a month old today.
    Any information would be helpful considering apple care talk to me like im an idiot, e.g. "Have you tried turning it off and on again?". I work in I.T. so i've tried most things, such as SMC reset and clearing the PRAM to no avail.
    Thanks guys

    I'll just assume no one can help then...

  • Hello everyone!  I am having issues with my MacBook Pro early 2011 13 in.  When I boot up it starts to boot up and never finishes.  The screen just continues to have the apple and spinning circle on it.  Any recommendations?

    When restarting my computer the screen is freezing on the apple and spinning icon.  It never finishes booting.  Anyone know how to fix this?

    Reinstalling Lion Without Erasing the Drive
    Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall Lion: Select Reinstall Lion and click on the Continue button.
    Note: You can also re-download the Lion installer by opening the App Store application. Hold down the OPTION key and click on the Purchases icon in the toolbar. You should now see an active Install button to the right of your Lion purchase entry. There are situations in which this will not work. For example, if you are already booted into the Lion you originally purchased with your Apple ID or if an instance of the Lion installer is located anywhere on your computer.

  • Is anyone having issues with their iPhone 5 music controls in a 2012 Hyundai Accent, both on Bluetooth and using a headphone or USB cable?  My music plays but I cannot skip songs without physically using the iPhone 5 controls.  Thanks!

    Hello,
    I have an AT&T iPhone 5 purchased from an AT&T store - it is a normal phone, no changes, no jailbreaking.  I tried using my phone and my girlfriend’s iPhone 5 with the USB auxiliary cable in my 2012 Hyundai Accent.  No matter what connector I use (headphone, USB, auxiliary) it doesn't charge or allow me to use the Hyundai’s controls to change music.  Music will play through the Bluetooth system, but I cannot control the music unless I physically touch my iPhone.  My iPhone 4 has a USB auxiliary cable and works perfectly; it charges and I have full control of my music without having to touch my phone. Nothing works even if I use the adapter that connects the iPhone 4 charger end to the iPhone 5. The picture below shows the iPhone 4 USB cable but it needs to have the (blue) iPhone 5 adapter.
    Here’s the best part of this whole situation.  I was told by Hyundai Customer Care that there is a specific USB cable available for my iPhone and that I need to contact a dealer.  However, two Hyundai dealerships have told me that they do not have a cable, that Apple has not made a cable for the iPhone 5, and that I need to contact Apple directly or order it from an Apple store.  It gets better.  I contacted an Apple Store and they told me to contact Hyundai.  I explained what I wrote above and they put on a call with Apple Customer Care.  After 37 minutes on the phone with Apple, they still couldn't give me a satisfactory answer on how to get this cable or if they even had a cable (Case ID 505467409).
    So here is the magical question:   Is there a working adapter for the iPhone 5 that connect to a 2012 Hyundai Accent? It needs to play music, charge the phone, and work with the car’s controls.  Thanks!

    The problem is that you're using an uncertified lightning to 30-pin connector (the blue cable).  If you purchase the 30-pin to lightning cable (either online, at an Apple store or an authorized dealer) it should work fine.
    I have a 2011 Tuscon and tried the lightning to USB cable that came with the phone - no dice.  Talked to my local Hyundai dealer and they don't have an eta on the Hyundai lightning cables (I'm sure it's in the works).

  • Anyone having issues with their new iPhone 5?

    I've had my iPhone 5 for a month (64GB in white from 3 network). My fella has the same but in black but he's not been having any problems.
    I've noticed the reception drops randomly, I've noticed it most when it's been in my pocket. I have to reset it using Airplane Mode to re-fresh.
    Also it sometimes crashes on me, stays frozen for 2-5 minutes. Never had this problem with my old iPhones!
    And litrally just ten minutes ago I tried making some calls, first time call I heard was what sounded like interferance, then the second and third call no one could hear me speaking.
    Another thing I've noticed is that sometimes it doesn't like being connected to my home WiFi. We have BT Infinity and the computers run very quickly of it, however the phone seems to struggle.
    Wondering whether these are common symtoms??
    Regards El x

    I think you must restore your iPhone without keeping backup! One suggestion: save your address book and your favourite apps with iCloud! And if you cannot do without, recover only this data.

  • ANYONE HAVING ISSUES WITH THEIR PHOTOS APPEARANCE ON IPODS WITH VISTA!!!

    so the issue isn't i-tunes or the ipod the issue is the size of the photo. Make a seperate file for your ipod phots and copy all the photos you want to be on your ipod into the folder, then open every photo in paint and press ctrl+W and keep resizing till the photo is a little bit bigger then your ipod screen (make sure you use the same numbers for the horizontal and vertical side or else it'll distort the picture). i usually start with 50 percent and do it till its a little bit bigger then my screen, then save it. it takes a little bit to do but it works i promise just don't make them to small cause you ipod will stretch this hope this helps other people out!!! it stinks i know but for me its worth it i love my photos

    It is a fairly simple item to deal with. Get a can of compressed air, the type you would use on your keyboard. Turn off your device and spray the air onto the home button. You can try and blow into as well. Sometimes dust or small particles get stuck behind the button.

  • I am having issues with my Macbook Pro after having synced my iPhone 5.

    It makes the trackpad act as a right click when tapping and the keyboard does not work properly. I found that by pressing the ctrl, alt and cmd keys together, or in combinations at the same time as pressing F1, it clears the problem for a while, then it does it again.
    The first time this happened in December, it sorted itself after about 3-4 days and I just synced my iPhone 5 on Saturday and it started again and cannot seem to clear the problem.

    You need to check the settings under System Preferences > Trackpad. This has nothing to do with the iPhone 5. Specifically check the first two options and click on the text below each.

  • Anyone having issues with facetime fail on iphone 4 or macbook pro?

    Is anyone having issues with facetime fail on macbook pro or iphone4?

    Judging by all the posts on the forum, there seems to be an issue at Apple's end, although they have made no announcement on their status page.

  • Has anyone else been having hard drive issues with 13" MacBook Pro barely a year old?

    Has anyone else been having hard drive issues with 13" MacBook Pro barely a year old?

    Yes, BUT...
    ... there are many problems that are really easy to eliminate by replacing the Hard drive, including ones that have nothing to do with actual Drive Hardware failure. These include corrupted install of Mac OS X, its EFI partition, clobbered partition tables, or the appearance of Bad Blocks in a critical area.
    Any of these problems can sometimes be eliminated by re-initializing the entire drive and writing Zeroes, and re-installing from scratch. The trouble is, this process takes hours to complete, and is not guaranteed to be successful -- you may still need a new drive after all that effort.
    I learned from my Plumber that consumers have no appetite for solutions that might work, and detest return visits for any related problems whatsoever. You or your friend may have had your drive replaced, not because it actually failed, but because the situation was troublesome, and the provider thought you would not tolerate anything less than a crisp, complete fix on the first attempt. And based on the cost of technician time, it may have even been cheaper that way.

  • Having issues with my MacBook. Even when the internet is disconnected, apps are still closing and opening on their own. I sometimes do not have control over my cursor.....any suggestions?

    Having issues with my MacBook. Even when the internet is disconnected, apps are still closing and opening on their own. I sometimes do not have control over my cursor.....any suggestions?

    There are several possible causes for this issue. Please take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried until it's resolved. Some may not be apply in your case.
    1. Follow the instructions in this support article, and also this one, if applicable. A damaged or defective AC adapter could be the cause, even if it's the right kind.
    2. Open the Bluetooth preference pane in System Preferences and delete all pointing devices other than the trackpad, if applicable. Disconnect any USB pointing devices. By a "pointing device," I mean a peripheral that moves the cursor, such as a trackpad, mouse, trackball, or graphics tablet. A plain keyboard is not a pointing device.
    3. Start up in safe mode and test, preferably without launching any third-party applications. If you don't have the problem in safe mode, but it comes back when you restart as usual, stop here and post your results. Do the same if you can't start in safe mode. If there was no difference in safe mode, go on to the next step.
    4. Reset the System Management Controller.
    5. If you're using a Bluetooth trackpad, investigate potential sources of interference, including USB 3 devices.
    6. A swollen battery in a portable computer can impinge on the trackpad from below and cause erratic behavior. If you have trouble clicking the trackpad, this is likely the reason. The battery must be replaced without delay.
    7. Press down all four corners of the trackpad at once and release. If there's any effect, it's likely to be temporary, and the unit needs to be serviced or replaced.
    8. There's a report that a (possibly defective) Thunderbolt Ethernet adapter can cause the built-in trackpad of a MacBook to  behave erratically. If you're using such an adapter, disconnect it and test.
    9. There's also a report of erratic cursor movements caused by an external display that was connected but not turned on.
    10. If none of the above applies, or if you have another reason to think that your computer is being remotely controlled, remove it from the network by turning off Wi-Fi (or your Wi-Fi access point), disconnecting from a Bluetooth network link, and unplugging the Ethernet cable or USB modem, whichever is applicable. If the cursor movements stop at once, you should suspect an intrusion.
    11. Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store to have the machine and/or external trackpad tested.

  • Is anyone else having issues with their I Phone 5 running ios 6.1?

    As stated above:  Is anyone else having issues with their I Phone 5 running ios 6.1?
    I am having issues with the WiFi connection to my AT&T router and voice recognition.
    It wont make post to Facebook half of the time. It is lacking the option to post videos to Facebook, only to mail, message, and You Tube. And finally the voice recognition messes up what it types in both Siri and messages.

    Not having any of those.
