Beat Wireless & Macbook Pro Connecting Problems

I've recently bought Beats Wireless, and when I first connected it with my Macbook Pro, it worked just fine. I disconnected it for a little while, and tried to reconnect it later. But as I paired them together, a window popped up stating "The encoded audio stream configuration was unacceptable to the remote device. Any suggestions as to what I should do?

Dual Band: 2.4GHz and 5GHz at the same time:
Your MBP can connect to both.
If the Bands each have a different Name, you can choose by hand, if not it connects to the strongest signal.
Click the wireless icon and you see the name of the network you are connected to, If you see the other band name you can choose that.
Click the wireless icon in the menubar while hoding the Alt(option) key: it gives the specififcs of the band you are connected to.

    How did you install Windows? Did you use Bootcamp Assistant or did you use a virtual machine like Parallels, Fusion, or VirtualBox.
    If you used Bootcamp Assistant, did you download and install the Windows Support software (drivers) in accordance with the Bootcamp instructions?

  • My MacBook Pro will not connect to my home wifi but will connect everywhere else. My other Apple devices (I-pad, I-touch, another MacBook Pro) connect to the router without problems. It was working fine but all of a sudden stopped working.Thanks!

    try this.
    get back into your router's settings and start deleting devices that are not connected to your router.
    you can also delete the ones that are connected - they'll connect again.
    on the DHCP side of it, increase the amount of users that can connect/log in to your router.
    see if that sorts it out for you.
    good luck.

  • Macbook Pro connection to Sony Bravia LCD Color TV

    I have a macbook pro and I'm trying to connect it a Sony Bravia LCD Color Television. The macbook detects the sony tv and brings up a dialogue box about it. However, on the tv it says no signal. Anyone have any suggestions as to why this is happening?

    I had the same problem with a 1080i Bravia Sony and a MacBook Pro connected with a DVI-HDMI lead - it turned out to be a very simple solution - you have to make sure you are looking at the right AV channel on the TV. The mapping of AV1-6 to the ports on the back is not obvious at all (in this case it was AV4 that was the correct AV port). The Bravia also has the option to skip AV channels if desired - so if in the preferences you have disabled ports then you need to make them available to skip through.
    The picture is very sharp indeed with a DVI-HDMI lead - far far superior to a vanilla SVGA cable. Sound is automatically selected from an analogue input (2xphono) on one of the HDMI ports so make sure you select the right one on the back.
    (p.s. just to emphasize - the DVI-HDMI does not map to the 'PC' port it is another AV channel)

    Hi,
    Can I use Apple's VGA Adapter to connect my MacBook Pro (Mac OS X 10.5.8) to Sony BRAVIA KDL32EX308. Is it compatiable? If not, which adapter I should buy?
    Thank you in advance.

  • MacBook Pro connected Cinema Display lid closed - is this alright?

    I have my Macbook Pro connected to a 23" Cinema Display and I was just reading something about heat and wanted to make sure its fine to have my Macbook Pro connected to the Cinema Display with the lid closed. Actually, I'm guessing there's no problem as only rarely do the fans kick in and this has to be when the CPU is being held wide open for an extended length of time.
    However, I thought I'd just bounce it off the forum to make sure this is fine. I think I asked Apple ages ago when I got the display and they told me it was fine. I've run it this way I suppose for 2.5 years so and everything runs fine. But, I know this thing can get hot when I sit it on my lap which is rare now since I have a iPhone.

    It's fine to do that, but personally, I would leave the lid cracked open about an inch to aid in cooling. Air is drawn in through the keyboard.

  • MacBook Pro Connects to Wifi while Macbook Air and 2 iphones don't

    Today when we got home from work my boyfriends Macbook air couldn't connect to the internet, he restarted the router and modem and it still didn't work, my Macbook Pro connected as usual and is working perfectly, both of our iphones can't connect either.  We tried forgetting the network on the iphones and ran through network diagnostics with the Air, at first it would fine the wireless but insist we were typing in the wrong password despite KNOWING we were doing it right and now it won't even see any of the 15+ networks in our apartment building. Any ideas?  Super non-tech savy so it might be something stupid....

  • If a network is going to include a wireless MacBook Pro and hardwired PC..

    ..does the setup utility need to be run on both of the computers? My Mac works fine, but the PC, while online, doesn't recognise my USB printer or the network by it's name.

    "If a network is going to include a wireless MacBook Pro and hardwired PC, does the setup utility need to be run on both of the computers? My Mac works fine, but the PC, while online, doesn't recognise my USB printer or the network by it's name."
    I just finished setting up the same configuration. It took me two days, but I was finally successful. I DID run the setup utility on both computers.
    For comparison, here is my arrangement: I have a dsl modem (dynamic IPs) that was connected to the pc (Windows XP with SP2), and is now connected to the base station wan port.
    Before I set up the airport extreme, the printer was connected directly to the pc via a usb cable, and working fine. Now the printer is connected to the base station, and the pc is connected to the base station via ethernet. I am able to print from both the pc, and wirelessly from the mac.
    Here are some ideas:
    (1) In AirPort Utility, I used manual set up instead of the assistant. I tried initially to set up the base station from the pc, but finally gave up and used the mac to set up the base station. That went fine.
    (2) I set the base up as a bridge.
    (3) I did not use any of the pc set-up wizards (they did not seem to help).
    (4) AirPort Utility allowed the pc to see the network.
    (5) I used Bonjour to help the pc find the printer.
    I went down many dead ends with the pc before I got the set up to work. If you tell me more, I may have more ideas.

    One more thing: I have a related question. We have protective software on the pc, but I've never used it on the mac. Will bad "stuff" now be able to get from the internet to the mac to the pc, or will the pc still be protected? I'm new to all this.

  • Macbook Pro connects to campus wifi but suddenly Safari/Mozilla will not load anymore.

    I've had my MacBook Pro for a while now, it's still running Leopard, but that hasn't been a problem. I woke up yesterday morning and the Airport says its connected to the campus network, but when I open Safari/Mozilla/Mail, it will not load, and eventually says that the server will not respond.
    I have connected to this network for over a year with no changes/problems
    it literally happened overnight. I left my computer to sleep like I always do and when I woke it up in the morning, the internet wouldn't load.
    internet works when I use an Ethernet cable
    my roommate is sitting next to me with her newer macbook pro connected to the same network that is fucntioning just fine. So it's not the network (not that I could do anything to it if it was)
    I've restarted, turned off Airport and turned it back on, deleted network preferences, put in the exact same IP address that my roommate has (hers is different from mine, but mine will not connect with the one she is connected to)...
    HELP?

    I solved my issue and I believe it was router related. I have a router through Verizon and their Fios service. My router was old so I caled for a replacement. when I received thereplacement I switched it the router to only accept 802.11n and this did the trick. Problem solved, stupid router.

    Hello QuinnDev,
    Thank you for posting in the Apple Support Communities.  It sounds like you are trying to use your MacBook Pro with a Thunderbolt Display in closed clamshell mode (MacBook Pro closed), but sometimes the display doesn't stay on.  I found an article that talks about closed clamshell mode.  You would have to fulfill the following requirements to use your display this way:
    Requirements for closed display mode:
    Power adapter
    External keyboard, mouse, or trackpad
    External display
    You can find all the steps and the full article here:
    Mac notebooks: How to use your computer in closed clamshell (display closed) mode with an external display

    Can a supported macbook pro connect to an iphone 5 via airdrop?

    Found your answer:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5887?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
    Note: AirDrop for iOS supports only iOS 7 devices. You cannot use AirDrop on iOS to share with OS X, and OS X users can't use AirDrop to share with iOS devices.
    Yes, I was surprised too!
