Can't find my macbook on list of trusted devices, Can't find my macbook on list of trusted devices

Trying to set up 2 step security and my macbook pro is not in the list of devices to verify for trusted devices. It is on and find my mac is enabled. Help please

A trusted device must be able to receive SMS messages from "Find my iPhone" or similar. That excludes your macbook.
When you set up two-step verification, you register one or more trusted devices. A trusted device is a device you control that can receive 4-digit verification codes using either Find My iPhone notifications or SMS to verify your identity.

  • Macbook can find every network except my own (iPhone,PC and other device can)

    I used to have long hair, but now it's short from me trying to wrap my head around this problem..
    My new Macbook Pro have decided to ignore my router and it's driving me nuts!
    My iPhone 3gs, PC, Xbox360, 3DS, Printer and Wii are all connected to the router.
    The Macbook Pro could earlier connect, but than it suddenly decided that no matter what name, visable or non-visable, password protection or no passward-at-all, or any setting at the router I can possebly try, nothing works, every device EXEPT the bloody fricking Macbook can find and connect.
    I hade a friend over to have him try with his own Macbook Pro, AND IT FRICKING finds,connects and the whole deal...
    What is wrong with my Macbook and what should I do to fix it?
    PS. It connects to the network i have set up at both my mother, father and friends... It ONLY ignores my own home router, that it has been connected to most before.... 
    In dire need of advice
    // MacbookPro user

    hmm....
    I seem to have solved it by deleating my saved networkkeys, deleating com.apple.softwareupdate.plsit, restarted router and laptop after every action I tried and finaly connect to another randome unknown open network close to my bulding, And like magic my router name suddenly appeard in the network list....
    Somehow I don't feel satisfied with this "solution".... -.-"
    Well, when the problem returns, I will return... ^^"
    Thanks For all the help

    Hi LamboMong,
    just try this:
    http://refit.sourceforge.net
    install, reboot twice and choose the Windows-Partition on next startup.
    (The apple-bootloader doesn't display all bootable harddisks.
    With rEFIt you can boot from all partitions/harddisks on your computer.)
    I hope that will solve your problem.

  • How can I set up multiple spaces (desktops) on my new MacBook Pro 10.9.5?  I have six set up on my other computer MacBook Pro 10.8.5 but can't find how to do it on this new one.  Would appreciate help on this.  Cheers.

    It's not completely obvious. What you have to do in Spaces is to position your cursor to the upper right of the screen, after which faint + (plus) sign appears in that area. Click that, upon which another Desktop will appear.
    The + may be difficult or impossible to see with some desktop backgrounds (black, for instance):

  • Devices Can't Find Airprinter when Macbook is asleep?

    Hello all,
    I have a printer connected and airprint enabled on my airport express. The main computer on my network (The one which I set up all my airport devices) is a macbook. When the macbook is up and running, all my other ipods, ipads, pcs, macs can find the printer and print to it successfully. But when I put my laptop to sleep or close the lid, my other devices can no longer find the printer. When the lid is closed on my macbook, my iPhone is still able to find the airport express and connect to it via airport utility. It is only when I go to print, that I can no longer find the printer.
    My setup:
    My router is a time capsule connected to dsl modem via ethernet. The airport in question was set up to join my current wireless network.  I have one other airport express connected to my network. It is in the adjacent room hooked up to a stereo with airtunes enabled. Does anyone have any suggestions? Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!!

    Not sure if this is related but I have the following setup:
    1.83 Core Duo Mac Mini (10.5.1) used as home theater computer
    500GB Lacie Porsche Drive (USB 2)
    320GB Lacie Porsche Drive (USB 2)
    iTunes Library and Music / Video on 500GB drive
    My drives have never had a problem sleeping properly (under 10.4 or 10.5), but recently in 10.5.1 after running Front Row or iTunes and then letting the drive sleep (pausing a movie for a few minutes or even opening and then quitting iTunes) Finder, Front Row, and iTunes all become completely unresponsive and the Mini requires a hard reboot (even shutting down over SSH doesn't work).
    I wonder if this could be an issue with the Lacie firmware or 10.5.1 drivers.

  • I have a MacBook, made in 2010. I can't get the eject function to work. I have a DVD in now and want to eject it and put another one in. Command-E, dragging it to the trash or Find-Eject does not work. Ideas?

    Hi there. Hear are some other options . Hold down for click on the track pad while restarting and keep it down all the way thru boot. Or use right click on a mouse. If it's stuck, sometimes sticking a business card in top edge of slot while trying the eject option can work.

  • I sold my MacBook Air and wiped it clean, however the purchaser can't use some of the programmes as they say they are still registered to me in iCloud. I've tried unregistering the device but it's not in the list of my devices.

    Help me please!
    I recently sold my MacBook Air and before I let it go, I completely wiped it clean and re-set to factory settings. However, the new purchaser is having trouble accessing some of the programmes as it is saying they are still registered to me in my iCloud account. I've tried unregistering the device, but it doesn't appear in any of my device lists.
    I'm completely baffled.

    The new owner will have to redownload any software that came from the App Store, including OS X upgrades, under his or her Apple ID. If you ever updated the bundled iLife applications (Garage Band, iMovie, and iPhoto) through the App Store, you can't transfer those either.

    Its no longer visible to the user. You can go to the folder by using the Go to Folder using username/library using the go to folder option to the right of the Finder labeled Go, then Go to Folder. Then you can see the contents of the user library folder.

    System Preferences > Keyboard > Keyboard tab; tick "show keyboard and character viewers in menu bar"
    If you open Keyboard Viewer and press the alt (option) key, the location of the diacritical marks and other common symbols will be revealed. Note that five of them are highlighted in orange; these are the ones which can be used with multiple  letters (acute, umlaut, gràve, circumflex and tilde)
    Shift and Shift+Alt will show more.
    Note that # is alt+3 on a keyboard with the £ sign.

  • How do i find out serial number of my Macbook that is stolen so it can be reported to law enforcement ?

    How do i find out serial number of my Macbook that is stolen so it can be reported to law enforcement ?

    Did you have the "Find my Device" enabled on your AirBook? Look at this web page and maybe you remember setting it up and if you did you could track it and/or disable it the first time it's connected to the internet:
    https://www.apple.com/icloud/find-my-iphone.html
    Report as soon as possible and also make up flier and hand out to all the local pawn shops in case the theif tries to pawn it or sell it. Also keep you eyes out for craigslist ipad sales for AirBooks - you never know how silly some people and try to sell a stolen item that you can prove is yours.
    Good luck...

  • How can I establish bluetooth connection with my iPhone so I can share and modify my iPhone's contact list on my macbook?

    How can I establish bluetooth connection with my iPhone so I can share and modify my iPhone's contact list on my macbook?

    The Mac and iPhone sync with iTunes though the charge cable that is included with the iPhone. Through this, you can sync your calendars and contacts.
    Bluetooth is an impractical sync scheme as the time it would take to say transfer your song catalog could be longer than your phone contract. I suppose it is entirely possible to implement with hacks and jailbreaking, but I am fairly sure it is beyond the rules here to discuss such activities.
    You may wan tto ask this same question in the iPhone section of the comminitie here. There may be some workarounds for just contacts.
