Airport Management Utility on new MacBook Pro does not see base station

I have an old "flying saucer" Airport base station. I
recently started using a new MacBook Pro. Airport
connection is fine, Airport Admin Utility works normally,
but Airport Client Monitor 1.0 shows blank graphs and
Airport Management Utility 1.0 does not "see" the
base station. I don't know if the problem is the
change to Tiger, to Intel, or to AE card. MacStumbler
and friends also are "blind".
MacBook Pro Core 2 Duo Mac OS X (10.4.8)

Try rebooting the airport, then going to airport utilities and go thru the set up proceedure following the prompts. Also go to system prefernces in location select automatic.

New Macbook Pro does not see bluetooth mouse

I have just purchased a new Macbook Pro and wish to use the bluetooth mouse from my desktop Mac. However, the Macbook does not seem to see this device when I try to connect. Any suggestions would be welcomed.

Do you still have the instructions for your mouse? Most have a button somewhere that puts it in a discoverable state.

New Macbook Pro does not start up after updating...HELP!!!

Hi,
My new Macbook Pro does not start up after it got updated. The first time I used it, it was perfect. I updated it and restarted it when it told me to but it doesn't boot. It shows an apple and a spinning circle when it turns on but that's it.
Can somebody please help me?

You should probably post your question in the MacBook Pro discussions:

Purchased Lightroom software on disc, new MacBook Pro does not have a disc drawer.

Purchased Lightroom software on disc, new MacBook Pro does not have a disc drawer. Have already opened box. Searched online and someone suggested downloading the LR trial, and set up Cloud, then can enter the serial number to complete the purchase. Which is what I did, but the serial number is being rejected.

Ok, maybe what they’re calling Creative Cloud is merely your Adobe ID, an e-mail and password to login with. The LR5 6 update link is probably what you want to download—all updates are downloads, anyway, so there’s no need to have a disc reader as long as you have internet and the serial number.
Here is the LR 5.6 update for a Mac: http://www.adobe.com/support/downloads/detail.jsp?ftpID=5822
Another issue might be that what you think is a serial number is a redemption code that needs to be converted to a serial number using this website: http://www.adobe.com/go/getserial A clue that you have a redemption code is that it has letters and numbers. A serial number is just numbers and the first few are 1160-something.

Adobe Lightroom on MacBook Pro does not see my iphoto library

Adobe Lightroom on MacBook Pro does not see my "iphoto library"

Hello.
The problem is that the iPhoto library is inside of iPhoto. Lightroom won't let you select it because it's basically a shortcut to iPhoto. Try exporting the images you need or all of them, depending on what you need.

My new Macbook Pro does not have Frontrow

Just got a new Macbook Pro Intel 2 Duo Core but I can't find Frontrow? It came with a remote too.
I downloaded an update but it's a ".pkg" so I'm unable to open it.
Any help would be appreciated.
thanks!
ST

FrontRow should be installed on your new MBP. It's not a usual application, you'll find it in System/Library/CoreServices.
What happens when you press the Menu button on the remote or Command-Esc on the keyboard? That should invoke FrontRow.
If it really isn't installed, you can install it from the OSX disks that came with the Mac.
Insert Disk 1 and click the "Install Bundled Software Only". Follow the instructions. After selecting the install destination, click on the Customize button and you should find Front Row as one of the options.

My new macbook pro does not have a safari icon

Just got a new Macbook Pro and when I logged on there's a ? mark where the safari icon should be. Also when i attempt to click on it nothing happens.
I have no way of getting on the internet..

Your Safari application should be in your Applications folder. See if it's there. If it isn't post back. How are you getting onto these forums? Through a browser. Then download:

Macbook Pro does not see Fast Ethernet but works fine with Gigabit Ethernet

Hi to everybody,
It is some time I have a problem connecting my unibody Macbook Pro (late 2008) to the ethernet cables in my office. There are 16 wall jacks in the lab, of which 13 are Fast Ethernet (100 Mbit/s) and 3 are Gigabit Ethernet. No matter what I do, if I connect to the 100 Mbit/s jacks, my Macbook does not see the connection and keeps saying "Cable unplugged". If I switch to a Gigabit jack, then a connection is quickly established.
I have spent one whole afternoon debugging. Here is what I did:
My computer dual boots Mac OS X and Linux. No matter which operating system I use, the problem is the same.
Using different Cat.5 cables does not change the situation (I tried three of them.)
All the 13 Fast Ethernet jacks do not work.
All the 3 Gigabit jacks work smoothly.
What puzzles me is that my computer happly uses the newest technology (Gigabit ethernet) but has problems with the oldest one. Has somebody else experienced the same problem?

After a lot of struggle, I discovered that other people had this very issue as well. It seems that the cause is a faulty Realtek chip used in the ethernet cards of some MacBooks and other brands. There is apparently no way to fix this: I solved my problems by buying a Gigabit Ethernet switch which I connected to the Fast Ethernet wall jack. (Another option might be to use a Ethernet-to-USB adapter - but I did not try this as I have no adapter of this kind.)

Airport Utility does not see Base Station but I'm still online

I have an original airport base station and just downloaded Airport Utility 5.5.1
The base station is working because I'm online with it posting this thread.
But Airport Utility 5.5.1 does NOT see it...
The strange thing is that I have one of the early dome Airport Extremes here as well. That one IS recognized but the Airport Utility.
Anyone have any suggestions as to why the original Airport is not showing up in the utility even when I know it's obviously being seen by my card and connecting to the web?
Thanks

Did you power cycle your network as follows?
Power everything on the network down, order is not important
Wait a few minutes, then start the modem first and let it run a few moments by itself.
Then start the next device connected to the modem and let it run a few moments.
Then start each device the same way until everything is up on the network.

When I plug in my USB Thumb drive (PNY 8Gb) the MacBook Pro does not see it, nothing happens. Is there something else I need to do?

When I plug a PNY 8Gb USB thumb drive, nothing happens and the MacBook Pro can't see it. Is there something I need to do?

If you are looking for it in Desktop, it's normal that you feel like your Mac doesn't detect it. By default, OS X doesn't show external drives in Desktop, so you have to access to them from Finder. To do it, open a Finder window and choose your external drive in the Finder sidebar, under "Devices".
If you want to show the external disk in Desktop, open a Finder window, go to the Finder menu (on the menu bar) > Preferences > General, and mark "External drives"

Hi, I have a late October 2008 Macbook Pro Unibody which I wanted to use my Magma Expressbox card with. I had a Silver Macbook Pro before which this worked fine with but for some reason my newer Macbook Pro does not even recognize the Expresscard slot?

Highly anooying as I can't even use the Express Card slot at all, due to the fact the Macbook doesn't even recognize it exists. Has anyone else had this problem. If so, how was it fixed? I only upgraded my Macbook Pro due to the fact Ineeded a better performance but I still need my Expressbox1 to work with my UAD DSP card. If not the buying the new MAcbook was a total waste of money if the Express Card does not even fundtion on it? Please help!!

Mavericks is no longer available from the App Store, so your choice is Yosemite. One option is to create a new partition (~30- 50 GB), install the new OS, and ‘test drive’ it. If you like/don’t like it it, you can then remove the partition. Do a backup before you do anything. By doing this, if you don’t like it you won't have to go though the revert process.
Check to make sure your applications are compatible.

My new MacBook Pro does not shut down

Hello,
please help. I have a brand new computer - MacBook pro - 2.2 GHz, Intel Core i7, Mac OS X 10.6.7. When I bought it, I followed the onscreen instructions and "transferred" my old computer, 4 year old MacBook, onto the new one (my accounts, with all the documents, preferences, etc). Now, for some time, before getting my new computer, I had been experiencing problems on my old one: namely, it was not shutting down and I had to "force" it by pressing the switch. I should have known better than transferring the old comp's settings and accounts onto the new one. I didn't and now my new computer is also not shutting down. Does anyone know how to find where the problem is and how to eliminate it? Do I have to backup all, erase, and reinstall everything or is there a less drastic way to cure my afflicted computer?
Thank you!
P.

Hi,
running the activity monitor and select System Processes, set the window to see allrunning processes and sort by CPU usage, close all applications that are using and try to shut down your Mac, then identifies what the process that consumes more CPU percentage.
Regards

Migration Assistant Problem: Old MacBook Pro does not see new MacAir

I have a brand new MacAir (OSX 10.7 and a 4 year old Macbook Pro (OSX 10.6)...trying to use Migration Assistant using Wifi, they're both on my network, but the new MacAir can "see" the old Macbook, but the old Macbook doesn't "see" the new MacAir...the wheel just keeps spinning as it tries to find another computer to migrate to but it just never sees it. What am I doing wrong or what can I do to fix this problem? Thanks!

Sounds like there are two issues:
1. The Migration should start from the "To" computer asking for the stuff from the "From" computer. Sounds like you're doing it the other way.
2. The MacBook Air isn't visible. Correct that by going to System Preferences ---> Sharing on your MacBook Air and see if things look good there. You should at least see a message near the top starting with "Computers on your local network can access your computer ..."

Brand new macbook pro does not start up am i doing something wrong

well i went to the apple store and baught a brand new core i7 17 inch macbook pro i am new to apple and this is my first time purchesing an apple product when i got it out of the box i plugged it in and let it charge before turning it on then i turned it on and it made a sound but then it comes up with a picture of a folder on a gray screen with a questionmark and there is like a clicking noise from inside am i missing something because i ave never used one before or is this not normal thanks

The clicking suggests you got a unit with a bad hard drive. Bring it back and exchange it for a another new one.
