In the middle of using wi-fi on my MacBook Pro, I lost contact. No other apple devices (iMac, iPhone or iPad) are affected. When I click on the empty wi-fi icon (top right of the screen) it gives the message: Wi-Fi: No hardware installed. has anyone any clues?

Wi-Fi: No hardware installed. has anyone any clues?
Unfortunately, this message is almost always an indication that the internal AirPort card on the Mac has failed and will need to be replaced. This is a job for repair shop.
If you have a recent Mac, a Hardware Test may reveal this as well:

Wi fi not working, I'm getting a message "wi-fi: No hardware installed" it was working fine and just stopped

Hi, hope someone can help, I can't connect to the Internet, I'm getting the message "Wi-Fi: No hardware installed" it was working one minute and then just stopped, my by home hub is working fine as my iPhone is connected, is there anything I can do?

Before resetting try restarting. Or you can go to Settings from the home screen > Wi-Fi > your network and scroll down to 'Renew Lease' and press that. When you do you should see a button labeled 'Renew Lease?' and another labeled 'Cancel'. Select 'Renew Lease'.
You can either back out of that screen back to the home screen or just use the return button to go back to the home screen. Then select Safari and see if you can hook in.
I have to go through that process every five or ten minutes or so when in the second story of our house - weak router signal up there.

I am programmer and I am using dr java on my mac-book pro with retina display but dr java doesn't support retina display, what is the possible way to solve this ?

I have made some progress.... I can print wirelessly from my printer now, but I can't set the printer itself to be wireless. I had to move my printer downstairs to where my router is...which is not that convient. I printed up the page you asked about....and as expected, it says it is off line and there is no IP address. So now I need to figure out how to make my printer itself wireless. I did download the HP driver I needed...but I can't access it to do anything else. It seems l like I am missing a step... or I need to hook up my computer itself to the printer to help get the printer to be wirelss, but I can't hook it up because there is no port for me to do that (no port that looks like a phone jack). I am guessing I would need a different type of cord, but I am not sure what kind of cord that would be! Ugh!

Ok..
Try Resetting your Mac's PRAM and NVRAM
If that doesn't help, try Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)
If nothing helped, since you don't hear the startup chord, make an appointment at an Apple Apple Genius Bar or take your Mac to an Apple certified repair provider.
v10.5.6 is an oudated version of Leopard.

I am using a mac book pro with Leopard OS. when I switch my laptop on it flashes a grey folder with a question mark on a grey screen, after the chime. I have tried all the things mentioned in another discussion. none of those have helped. HELP! im scared.

what must i do? im a student and dont have backup for my work. Im in desperate need of a solution where i wont lose my work from my desktop.

You need to purchase Leopard if you don't have the DVD and reinstall OS X:
How to Perform an Archive and Install
An Archive and Install will NOT erase your hard drive, but you must have sufficient free space for a second OS X installation which could be from 3-9 GBs depending upon the version of OS X and selected installation options. The free space requirement is over and above normal free space requirements which should be at least 6-10 GBs. Read all the linked references carefully before proceeding.
1. Be sure to use Disk Utility first to repair the disk before performing the Archive and Install.
Repairing the Hard Drive and Permissions
Boot from your OS X Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Installer menu (Utilities menu for Tiger, Leopard or Snow Leopard.) 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 installer. Now restart normally.
If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
2. Do not proceed with an Archive and Install if DU reports errors it cannot fix. In that case use Disk Warrior and/or TechTool Pro to repair the hard drive. If neither can repair the drive, then you will have to erase the drive and reinstall from scratch.
3. Boot from your OS X Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When you reach the screen to select a destination drive click once on the destination drive then click on the Option button. Select the Archive and Install option. You have an option to preserve users and network preferences. Only select this option if you are sure you have no corrupted files in your user accounts. Otherwise leave this option unchecked. Click on the OK button and continue with the OS X Installation.
4. Upon completion of the Archive and Install you will have a Previous System Folder in the root directory. You should retain the PSF until you are sure you do not need to manually transfer any items from the PSF to your newly installed system.
5. After moving any items you want to keep from the PSF you should delete it. You can back it up if you prefer, but you must delete it from the hard drive.
6. You can now download a Combo Updater directly from Apple's download site to update your new system to the desired version as well as install any security or other updates. You can also do this using Software Update.

What SACRIFICES do you make using Final Cut on a Mac Book Pro ?

I have a somewhat similar question to one posted below...
(http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=8156488&#8156488)
...but it seems like a broad question resulted in broad answers so let me pose it a different way.
I need a machine to handle HD video and I'm also considering a Mac Book Pro because of space considerations and the fact that it seems handy to be able to pick it up and take it to a coffee shop should need be.
But WHAT WILL I BE SACRIFICING as compared to an iMac or Mac Pro if I opt for portability? Will, say, renders take twice as long, crashes happen twice as often, etc.? Any Final Cut Pro users with both desk and laptop out there that could advise of the difference?
Thanks.

You are not sacrificing anything you can't deal with sacrificing. I have both systems, and the only drawback I have had yet is that you can't connect a laptop to a fiber network. But you can still connect through gigE. If SAN and distributed processing are not part of your workflow this doesn't concern you. The processor is a bit slower, but if you plan your time well you won't miss your deadlines.
There are not 8 processors in a MacPro. There are only 2 processors with 8 cores. A core is not an individual processor. But the MacBook Pro only has 1 dual core processor. So you have 6 less cores and 1 less processor. But the MBPro is still very fast. The DVD burner in the MacPro is faster, but the one in the MacBook Pro is a better drive. YOu can get a better graphics card in the MacPro, but if you're not doing graphics or 3d design the MacBook Pro will do wonderfully. An extra monitor makes the MacBook Pro just as easy to use as a tower but, like you said, you can unplug the monitor and take the computer with you, which is very convenient.
My recommendation is, relative to the criteria above, to get the laptop if you can only get one. Use the extra money to buy some accessories like a keyboard, mouse/tablet, monitor (Dell 2408 is a fantastic monitor and inexpensive), and a fast external hard drive. Lacie makes a nice drive called Little Big Disk and comes at 7200 RPM (necessary for video editing) and as large as 640GB in capacity. And it takes power from the Firewire 800 port. It also has eSATA, so with an express34 card you can get incredibly fast transfer rates.
The towers are great, but unless you need King Kong strength in your system, you're better off with the laptop.
Just my thoughts. I just sold my G5 'cause I haven't used it since I got the laptop. I have two MacPros and I usually just use them to add to my distributed processing. I do all my editing from the laptop.
Hope this helps.

What is your Mac OS X version in Apple menu -> About This Mac?
If it is 10.7 or later, search http://www.roaringapps.com/ for solutions that match your operating system.
If it is 10.6 to 10.6.8, see this http://snowleopard.wikidot.com/
Earlier versions of Mac OS X are harder to find software for:
If you aren't running at least 10.6.8, you pretty much have the same compatibility as any 10.4.4 through 10.6.7 system, and can upgrade for limited cost if any:

Beyond 10.7 it gets complicated:

Using my TV as my mac book pro monitor

Hi Everyone
I hope you can help.
I just bought a new 40 inch Sony Bravia LCD TV, an HDMI cable and the thing you need because my mac book pro does not have an HDMI output.
Using my mac and my TV screen as a mirror image i can not use the whole tv screen. It either leaves about 2 inches on both sides of the scheen or in wide mode it leaves about 1.5 inches on the top and bottom... I am wondering if there is a way to sort this out some i can have my computer screen and TV screen a mirror image and use the whole TV screen?
I am hopefull that someone knows what i am talking about! If you want more description i will be able to write more!!!
Thanks in advace for your help!!!!
Andrew

Don't use mirroring as the image on the TV will direct pixel for pixel copy of the MBP's screen, and hence won't use the native resolution of the TV which is probably 1080p. Go into System Preferences -> Displays -> Arrangement and turn off display mirroring, then you can use the full native resolution of the TV and won't have the black bands.
