Airport Snow compatability with new MacBook Pro?

Hi
I was given an old Airport (one of the originals) "Snow" model and was wondering if there is an imcompatability issue with the new MacBook Pro laptops and their modern Airport Extreme Cards with the older basic Airports?
Anyone know if this is the case?

No.
An 802.11g (Extreme) client should be able to connect to a 802.11b (original Airport) base station.

  • Compatibility with new Macbook Pro i5 13"

    Can anyone comment on boot camps compatibility with the new Macbook Pro 13" i5 model? It appears that not all the drivers are included for the new notebook models. For example I had to manualy download and install the Intel GMA driver from Intel and I still have one PCI device that cannot be installed.
    Regards...

    What version of Windows is this?

  • Can't set up Airport base stations with new MacBook Pro

    i have a brand new, late-2013 15" MacBook Pro running Mavericks. my attempts, using this machine, to set up my sixth-generation, 802.11ac Airport Extreme and my brand-new, whatever-generation 802.11n Airport Express purchased yesterday at an Apple Store (that means it's the current generation, with the power cord) - these attempts all fail with Airport Utility saying it's joining the base station for about a minute and a half, after which it stops trying and says, "An unexpected error occurred. Please try again."
    i can set up both of those base stations effortlessly with my iPhone.
    furthermore, i seem to be able to use this MacBook Pro to set up my fifth-generation, 802.11n Airport Extreme just fine - even when it's all the way across the house and my attempts to set up the sixth-generation one, which is a foot away from my MBP, are failing.
    why can i set these devices up with my iPhone and not with the newest, best, fastest, fanciest, most powerful laptop Apple makes?
    thank you.

    mmm...okay. thank you, Bob.
    for now, i've got the base stations configured via my iPhone, and once configured, my MBP can see and use them just fine. it just irks the **** out of me that my brand-new top-of-the-line MacBook Pro can't handle this simple task, and should have to use a wired connection to set up my base stations (how archaic!). it may be the only device i have with me one day when i want to set up an Airport base station (okay, that's unlikely, but it's the principle of the thing, dammit).
    are we sure this is a matter of bugs in Mavericks, and not a hardware problem with my MBP or something?
    many thanks.

  • 23 inch display compatibility with new MacBook Pros

    Could anyone tell me if my 2008 23inch Apple display would be compatible with the latest MacBook Pros?
    I know the connection is different but am unsure what adaptor I'd need (if indeed there is one)
    THANKS

    You need a mini displayport to DVI adapter:

  • Facebook problems with new macbook pro.

    Facebook problems with new macbook pro. I can't publish photo albums to timeline. I can't share items onto timeline. Photos I'm tagged in don't appear on my timeline. Any help?

    Yes! Been living in a hellish nightmare since Sept-Oct. Unlike you, however, Apple has been of no help. They say the iPad is unhackable, plist and crash reports are none of my business and who understands them anyway, their route tracing apps are probably not reliable. The best they could do was wipe the iPad clean. Lost photos they said would be in the cloud....
    Almost immediately was back in somebody's VPN, their remote controller, video, audio, working. Got the purple buddy for the first time today. I have been invaded, my iPad no longer feels like my own, I have lost thanksgiving, Christmas, new year trying to track down the invaders, signed up for a Cisco course, set/reset passwords.
    I don't know who else to contact... Or what next to do.
    I've read similar frustration in other posts, scattered around the support communities. Yours is the only one that has worked toward a solution.
    How did you get anyone at apple to look at your logs and acknowledge there is a problem?
    Would be happy for a suggestion on how to proceed. Already been the apple store genius and tech on phone route.

  • Internet problem with New Airport Extreme base and new Macbook Pro

    So I bought a Airport Extreme base station with my new Macbook pro.
    My desktop system uses a DSL modem which is connected to my computer via an ethernet cable. It works flawless. I can also unhook the hard ethernet connection from the desktop and connect it to the Macbook Pro with no problems.
    I then connected the ethernet cable from the DSL router to the WAN port on the Airport Base.
    I have no problem gettiing the Macbook pro to set itself up on the Airport Network. I can NOT, though, access the internet. I even tried to type in the IP address for the DSL modem while connected to Airport base and can not connect to modem. Does anyone have any advice? Is there a bridging function in the Airport Base that has to be activated?
    Another question. If I replace my current DSL Router with a wireless router, do I even need the airport base if all I want to do it connect to the internet with the laptop?
    Thanks,
    Danny

    Make sure you perform a complete power recycle when switching network components.
    Modem/Router Power ReCycling
    - Power-off the DSL modem & AEBS. (Wait at least 30 minutes. If possible, leave the modem off overnight.)
    - Power-on the DSL modem; Wait at least 30 minutes.
    - Power-on the AEBS; Wait at least 5 minutes.
    If that doesn't resolve the problem, and your DSL ISP requires PPPoE for connectivity, you will need to set that up on your AirPort Extreme Base Station (AEBS) as follows:
    Connect your computer directly (using an Ethernet cable) to the LAN port of the AEBS, and then, using the AirPort Admin Utility, check these settings:
    Internet tab
    - Connect Using: PPP over Ethernet (PPPoE)
    - Account Name: <ISP account name>
    - Change password: <ISP password>
    - Always stay connected (checked)
    - WAN Ethernet Port: Automatic
    Another question. If I replace my current DSL Router with a wireless router, do I even need the airport base if all I want to do it connect to the internet with the laptop?
    No, the AEBS will no longer be required.

  • Toneport UX2 not working with new MacBook Pro 10.6.2 Snow Leopard

    I do some casual recording using a Line 6 Toneport UX2. Previously i was recording on an older Mac Mini. Recently i upgraded to a new Macbook Pro (Snow Leopard 10.6.2)
    The new Macbook is not responding at all when i plug in my toneport, all the software for the toneport is installed.
    I think the problem is that my toneport is not compatible with an intel Mac. Is this right?
    And if it is can i fix this problem with some kind of upgrade for my toneport software(gearbox)?
    And if there is no solution can someone recomend a new audio interface for me to get? Under $200.

    I use a Toneport UX2 with my intel iMac. I never had the problem you are describing while using Gearbox with GB. However your problem sounds very similar to one I have experienced when I loaded up Line 6 Pod Farm. I discovered that when I start Pod Farm and get the message you mentioned, if I quit Pod Farm then immediately start it again, everything communicates just fine and I'm back in business. I would like to see a fix for this glitch, but for now I just start twice and then get to work.
    Give it a try! I am curious to know if you are in the same boat as me.
    As a side note, Recently Line 6 offered Pod Farm for no charge to registered owners of a Line 6 interface such as ours. You may want to check it out. It gives you some more options to play with.

  • Can't reinstall Snow Leopard on new MacBook Pro

    I had a old Macbook pro running Snow Leopard that died. I used Time Machine to restore to my brand new MacBook Pro. I decided to do an Archive and Install to start with a fresh system even though the new machine is working fine. The install disk is an early Snow Leopard release which loads fine, but when I run the install or try to restart from it, I get the Apple icon, but it never shifts to the installation process (nor can I check with Disk Utiity). Any suggestions?

    There is no Archive & Install option for Snow Leopard. Instead, its installer offers a single "no brainer" option that replaces the existing OS (if there is one) with a fresh copy of Snow Leopard & leaves your existing user settings, documents, etc. untouched (if there are any). You can think of it sort of like doing an Archive & Install with an automatic reintegration of your user stuff from the archive, except that there is no archive & no Previous System folder full of now useless junk that you can't use with the new OS anyway. It automatically moves some known-incompatible software to an "Incompatible Software" folder (go figure!) at the root of the HD, automatically installs or skips certain items depending what is already on the HD (if there is anything on it to begin with), & does several other things that the old installer was too dumb to be able to do without a lot of tedious human help.
    If you want to do an erase & install (which isn't usually necessary or desirable if you want to take advantage of all the advanced features of the new installer) you can do that too, but you must take the extra step of going to the Utilities menu, choosing Disk Utility from it, & using its Erase function to erase the volume before installing Snow Leopard on it.
    Basically, it is as close to a "one button" installer as Apple can make it & far more sophisticated than any previous installer.

  • Reformating external hard drive for use with new MacBook Pro

    I'm trying to figure out how to use an existing external hard drive (formatted for a Powermac G4) with my new MacBook Pro. I understand that the file formats are different and that I need to erase the hard drive and reformat it with a GUID partition, but how does one do that?
    I've already erased the drive with disk utility (using the old Powermac) and connected it to my MacBook with the hope that it would be recognized. No dice, alas. It doesn't mount at all.
    Any suggestions on how to proceed would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

    My external harddrives all work just fine with the MacBook Pro. You shouldn't have to reformat anything. I think if you did then it would not be backwards compatable with the older systems. Stick it back in your old computer and try to mount it again, repair permissions shutdown your macbook pro and connect the external drive then reboot
