Is there any way to save a wifi network so that you don't have to join every time you open your mac?

I was wondering if there was a way to save a wifi network to your macbook so that when I open it everytime I dont have to connect it everytime.

It should remember your networks by default, but in case that option is turned off, go to System Preferences - Network - click Wifi on the left - click Advanced - and tick "Remember networks this computer has joined".
If that is already ticked, your network settings may be corrupt and it may help to create a new location - in the Location menu at the top of the Networks screen, click Edit Locations, add a new named location and try again with the wifi connection.

  • Is there any way to prevent a wifi network from becoming known?

    Hi,
    I'm on mid 2010 Macbook Pro running OS X 10.9.4 and I can't figure out a way to prevent a certain wifi network from becoming known. My college's network requires an in browser sign up every time and once the network becomes known it gives me an SSL error until I remove it from the list of known networks and refresh. Not too painful, but definitely something I'd like to fix. The only post I could find about this was from 2007, so I wanted to see if anything had changed. Any ideas?

    In Network Preferences > Airport > Advanced, do the following:
    Delete the network from the saved list of wireless networks
    UNcheck "Remember networks this computer has joined"
    Also (and this is equally important), every time you join this particular network, be sure to UNcheck "Remember this network" in the sign-on dialog.

    NOTE: If I ask for code, please provide something that I can drop directly into a project and run (including XAML), or an actual application project. I'm trying to help a lot of people, so I don't have time to figure out weird snippets with

  • Is there any way to save playlist

    Okay so we are getting a new computer and I want to know if there is a way to save our play list   so that I don't have to reenter each song back in to them? If any one can help I would appreciate it  a lot.

    Backup your entire library with this User Tip. Restore the backup onto the new computer. Deauthorise the old computer if you don't need to access protected content on it any longer.

    Is there any way to save directly to the IPad (regardless of account) so he can view?
    Or transfer to his account?
    Or is any was to cancel the recent purchase if can not transfer as I will not watch these myself?

    sure pretty simple.  make a backup of your current settings
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766?viewlocale=en_US
    then restore device from old backup you need pics off of
    then import pics to computer
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083
    you may need to save pics to camera roll first
    then restore the new backup and sync pics back to phone via itunes

  • Is there any way to create a wifi hotspot for my macbook using my IPad?, Is there any way to create a wifi hotspot for my macbook using my IPad?

    I am going to a lake cabin in Northern Minnesota for a week and need to get wifi for my Mac.  Is there any way to create a wifi hotspot using my Ipad so that I have internet service for my laptop?

    No, iPad can become a hot spot, but if you have an iPhone, it can tether if you have a data plan that incudes the tethering option.  With AT&T for example, you can add tethering for $20 month or for $45/month, you receive tethering and 4GB of data per month.  If you have the unlimited data plan from AT&T you'll unfortunately have to give it up if you want to tether.  You can also go to almost any carrier and purchase a MiFi unit which may work for you.  Whether iw will work in Northern Minnesota is something only your carrier could answer.

  • My contacts are organized in different groups. An iPhone trade show app (Vinexpo) displays exhibitors infos and allows to create new contacts. Is there any way to save a new contact in a specified group instead of the contacts root? Thks in advance

    My contacts on my iPhone are organized in different groups. I have downloaded a trade show app which gives infos on the exhibitors of the show. It offers to create new contacts from these info. Is there any way to save these new contacts in a specified group instead of putting them into the contacts root, where they are mixed with all the old ones? By the way, can we create a new contacts group directly from the IPhone, without having to go through the sync process with the PC?
    Thanks a lot in advance

    Sorry, I forgot to bookmark the thread where the app was mentioned, but searching for "group" or "contacts" should bring a few results in the AppStore.

  • One of the folders on my external hard drive has transformed into a unix executable file and I can no longer access my files. Is there any way to save the data?

    One of the folders on my external hard drive has transformed into a unix executable file and I can no longer access my files. Is there any way to save the data?

    Wow, have seen Files do that, but a whole Folder as I recall!
    Could be many things, we should start with this...
    "Try Disk Utility
    1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
    2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
    Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.
    3. Click the First Aid tab.
    4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
    5. Click Repair. Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
    Then try a Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
    (Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.)

  • Is there any way to save an iphone with water damage?

    Is there any way to save an iphone 5 with water damage? I know older phones you could some times use rice to dry it out.

    1, Place in ziplock bag with dry raw white rice for a week.
    2, When that doesn't work take to Apple and purchase out of warranty replacement.
    3, If you have already turned on the power the damage is done so just proceed to step 2.

  • Is there any way to save a Pages document with security?

    I mean, is there any way to save a file you just edited, with a password or something that prevent other people to access that file without a password?
    I am on iWork on trial version, to test if I change to iWork or keep Office 2008 for Mac.
    I used to save a file on Office (PC version) with a security option, two passwords, one for read the file and other for editing the file.....is there any way to do that on Pages 09?
    Thanks

    Yes:
    +Inspector > Document > Document > Require password to open+
    Just be aware that is not the same security as with MsWord. In other words they can not open each others secure documents.

  • Is there any way to SAVE this file?

    Is there any way to save this file from the federal reserve website?   If so, what version of acrobat do I need?

    Any help would be appreciated!
    Thank you!

    If you enter any field information, the modified document cannot be saved with Adobe Reader. It does not have the necessary usage rights applied. You can save with a different PDF viewer that supports forms, such as Acrobat or Foxit Reader.

  • Is there any way to save a customized toolbar layout?

    Is there any way to save a customized toolbar layout?

    Printing the layout helps, I can pretty much do it from memory..
    Once you have '''freshly generated the layout''' you want
    # Open your profile folder by typing about:support int the location bar (or Help > Troubleshooting information...)
    # Click on Open containing folder
    # use File > Exit or "Firefox" button > Exit to get out of Firefox (Not the "X" in upper right corner as that just closes the Window)
    # in your profile f older select localstore.rdf and copy ("Ctrl+C") then paste it aback to make a copy, repeat to create at least one more copy, The original and "localstore - Copy.rdf " and "localstore - Copy (2).rdf" will all be the same, about 4KB to start with. (not 18 KB not 76 KB)
    # bring Firefox back up.
    ''Freshly generated ''means rename or delete the original localstore.rdf while Firefox is down, restart Firefox and customize your toolbars as you want them.
    If you have a problem with a corrupt localstore.rdf bring Firefox down and in your profile directory delete or rename the localstore.rd then rename a copy to localstore.rdf
    Reference: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Corrupt_localstore.rdf see references to backup copy, you should, of course, be taking periodic backups of all your personal data, and for Firefox that includes your profile.
