Will a superdrive connected to USB on Airport Extreme be accessable via Wifi with a Macbook Pro Retina display?

I would like to connect 2 external drives to my Airport Extreme.
1. A standard USB 2.0 external hard drive. No issues.
2. An Apple Superdrive.
Will the superdrive work over Wifi with my Macbook Pro Retina display;
Or will it only work if connected to MBP via USB port on MBP?
Thanks

Welcome to Apple Communities
This port is for printers and external drives only

  • Will an Infra-Red Adapter work with a macbook pro retina display so I can use the apple TV remote for presentations?

    I have always used the apple TV remote for my presentations.  I bought a retina display last year for the betterment of my presentations and now I have to stand near my computer and hit a button to change my slides where as before I used my remote.  Will a infra-red adapter work with the apple TV remote in the macbook pro retina display?  Love my computer, but very disappointed not to have a remote for presentations that does not need the internet.  Does anyone have any ideas?

    Yes, I used that and it works great if you have wireless connection.  Im looking for  a remote that worked like the apple TV remote.  My questions is, "Is there a USB infra-red remote that works with mac.  I have found this one: Keyspan EZ1 easy presenter.  It claims with works with PC and Mac and the reviews are good.  Does anyone know anything about it or if it works with retina display macs?

  • How do I use AirPort Extreme to be able print from my MacBook Pro AND a PC. If I connect printer into AirPort, I can only print on laptop. If printer is connected to PC hard drive, I can only print on desk top. How do I configure this to make both print?

    If you have not already done so, your chances will really improve if you....
    1) Connect the printer to the USB port on the AirPort Extreme
    2) Download and install Bonjour Print Services for Windows on the PC

  • I recently purchased a MacBook Pro Retina Display. In addition, I picked up a USB Superdrive. It appears the Superdrive does not want to accept my discs and just ejects them. What am I doing wrong?

    You should also ask this in the MacBook Pro forum. This is the forum for the white and black plastic MacBooks that were discontinued in 2010. You should also post this question there to increase your chances of getting an answer.

  • MacBook Pro Retina Display and USB SuperDrive

    Just wanted to let everyone know I had to update Mac OSX to be able to use the superdrive on the new macbook pro retina display.  Before that it would show me what was on the disk but I couldn't access it.  Even after I updated it I had to browse through finder to find the drive to be able to run what was on the disk, as it didn't pop up automatically.  Just wanted to give people a heads up so if anyone else has this issue.

    The superdrive not showing on the desktop may just be a setting in Finder. If it is listed in the Finder window then it is a setting in Finder to show, or not to show, DVD drives on the desktop.

  • Macbook pro retina display wifi connection problem.

    Macbook pro Retina display - 3 weeks old - connects erratically to home wifi over Airport Express
    iphone and iMac connects to the same wifi network. I am connecting through iphone hot spot to write this question. please help.

    I have posted my solution  i.e. update airport utility software. Ocourse you needa working internet connection for that!
    I have a 27 inch imac, mac book pro, mac book pro with retina display, iphone 4, iphone 4s, 2 x iphone 5. Each device was showing erratic internet connections at some point in time or the other.
    I just updated Airport Utility Software. You can find it in Applications/Utilities. When you click on Airport utilities, it opens a window with 2 icons. The bottom icon will look like your airport express. click on that and then you will get info on the right. If , I repeat if, your Airport utility software requires updation, you will be prompted in the info box. Click that and then you will be fine.
    However, the irony is that you need an internet connection for this. I set up a hot spot on my phone and did it.

  • Photoshop elements 10 will not migrate to my new macbook pro/retina display.  There is no CD/DVD player on this machine.  Any suggestions on how to get Elements onto my machine?  Yes, I have the disk(s).

    I have ordered a USB3 BluRay/DVD/CD player/burner and will use that both with my iMac ( in which the Superdrive seems to be failing ) and the MBPro Retina I just bought .

  • Microsoft Remote Desktop fails connecting to a 4k Laptop from a MacBook Pro Retina Display

    Hi there
    I'm struggling because I'm trying to use my MacBook Pro Retina display to connect to a Lenovo Laptop that has a higher resolution.
    The RDC simple does not work and when it does, the scale is too big to do something and gets disconnected in minutes... 
    Any hint?
    Thanks.

    Hi,
    It seems that MBP retina has high PPI resolution so that when accessing with normal MRD it will display blur or stretch the screen. Might due to that reason it can disconnect the screen also. For this you can try to use URI scheme where you can manually add
    the width and height for the screen and check result.
    You can check beneath article.

    You can try using Screen Sharing in the Sharing preferences. Or try a third-party utility such as ScreenRecycler.

  • 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.

  • Airport Extreme HD access via WAN

    When I had my MacBook Pro, i would go to school, and i noticed that i was still able to access my hard drive that was connected to the Airport Extreme.  For some reason, with my new setup, i am unable to do this anymore.  I know whatever i did the first time couldnt have been to difficult, or i wouldn't have done it.
    There was no setup, or passwords or anything... i just went to class, opened my laptop, and in the finder column, there was "Airport Extreme". I clicked it and there was all my movies and files.
    If anyone knows the seamless way to do this, it would be wonderful. I'm not to keen on having to enter information everytime i want access to something, hence the reason i bought all Apple products in the first place, because everything just worked.
    Any insight would be wonderful. Thanks in advance for your time.
    Josh

    The only way I know that this would have been that "seamless" would be via Back to My Mac (BtMM). BtMM would have required that you had either a MobileMe or iCloud account. Does this sound familar?
