Can't see my wi-fi on mac pro

It has been a while since I have used Wi-Fi on my MacPro since I was connected via ethernet. I used to be able to see the Wi-Fi icon in the upper right hand corner of my task bar and I could select a network. Now, that icon is not there and I am unable to select Wi-Fi as an option to add under System Preferences/Network. Wi-Fi is not listed and I am not able to add it on the left side since it does not give me Wi-Fi as an option to add as an interface, only Ethernet 1 and 2, firewire, PPOE and VPN.
If I go to Utilities applications and look at System information, it does show that I have a WiFi card.
How do I turn it back on?
Thank you.

Good advice, applying the combo may help...

Also, under the Apple icon at top left>more info>Network... is Airport listed there?
Then, Apple icon at top left>more info>Software>Extensions, is there something like this mentioned?

  • How can I see my reminders in my Mac in the same way I see them in my iPad and iPhone

    How can I see my reminders in my Mac in the same way I see them in my iPad and iPhone, I is easier to work with reminders in Ipad and Iphone rather to see them like a list on ICal

    The calendar seems to be the only way to see reminders right now. I'm aware of no 3rd party program that deals with just reminders...but I'd like to find one.

  • I can see open tabs from my PC on my Mac, but I can't see open tabs from my Mac on my PC. Why?

    I've set up Sync on my work PC and my home MacBook.
    I can see open tabs from my PC while I'm on my Mac, but I can't see open tabs from my Mac while I'm on my PC. Why?

    Here is what I am seeing on my Android device - at the top, a few options like History > Top Sites> Bookmarks>Reading List. Then, the search/address bar, then to the right of that, a square with the number "1" inside it, then 3 dots that, when chosen, give you the following options:
    New Tab
    New Private Tab
    Request Desktop Site
    Tools
    Settings
    Any thoughts on how I specifically sync my Desktop open tabs to my Android device so I can then see all my desktop open tabs on my phone?
    Thanks!

    No, I already have Microsoft Office for Mac on my macbook and on my imac.  I want to share the documents from one (imac) to the other through Icloud.   But it doesn't show them as an option.   How do you share documents on one computer to the other within the same house?

    Yes, you can.
    Upgrading to Mountain Lion
    To upgrade to Mountain Lion you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8 or Lion installed. Purchase and download Mountain Lion from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. Mountain Lion is $19.99 plus tax. The file is quite large, over 4 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.
         OS X Mountain Lion - System Requirements
           Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Mountain Lion
             1. iMac (Mid 2007 or newer) - Model Identifier 7,1 or later
             2. MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer) - Model Identifier 5,1 or later

  • HT1343 On my 4 1/2 year old Macbook I could select multiple files  by highlighting a file and then moving cursor over a file lower in the list, and pressing shift-control-click. I can't do that in now with Mac Pro.  What am I doing wrong?

    ghlighting a file and then moving cursor over a file lower in the list, and pressing shift-control-click. I can't do that in now with Mac Pro.  What am I doing wrong?

    Holding down the control key will invoke "right-click."
    Depending on the View, holding down Shift will with either toggle the selection (Icon View), or it will make a continuous selection from the previous selection (List View or Column View).
    The only way to make a continuous selection in Icon View is to drag out a selection marquee around or through the icons.
    I can't remember the behavior of previous OS's.

  • Can we use FCP conviniently while my mac pro is attached to a LED tv

    can we use FCP conviniently while my mac pro is attached to a LED tv (46inch).
    I am afraid if the icons will also blow up/get bigger and would become inconvinient to use.

    most large TV sets are still 1080p (1920 by 1080).
    The icons will appear to take up more space (in square inches) on the TV, but will be "grainy" compared to your monitor. The fundamental size of icons and items on screen (in pixels) will not change. When you return to using a monitor, things will be the same as before.

  • Can't find Leopard Installer Disc for Mac Pro and Need to Boot from Disc.

    Any chance I can create a bootable DVD for my Mac Pro without having the original to duplicate?

    This has to do with the mouse lag/freeze problem people have been having, by the way. Just about any 10 consecutive seconds that I use my mouse, it freezes then jumps a little ways away - which is seriously hampering my ability to finish this editing project.
    It's been suggested this is a directory problem, which is why I'm looking for the boot disc. If anyone has any other advice on this, I'm all ears.
    I've already changed out the hardware and run disk permissions, etc., to no avail.

  • Can not see TC hard driver using istat pro or activity monitor

    I upgraded the firmware of TC to 7.4.1 yesterday, but I found the transfer speed was too slow and I noticed that I can not see the TC condition using istat pro or activity monitor. So I downgraded the firmware to 7.3.2. Now the transfer speed is fine but I still can not see the TC hard driver in the istat pro or activity monitor.(but I can access files in the TC hard driver normally)
    Can anyone help?

    I couldn't see my TC hard drive in iStat pro until I actually mounted the TC's Airport Disk using the Finder 'Connect to server' dialog. iStat Pro only gives me Used and Free GB for my Airport Disk. My TC is an old 500GB upgraded to 1TB running 7.4.2 firmware.
    As to checking the temperature, I'd be interested too. I have a digital thermometer taped to the top surface of the TC and it is reading 46C with an ambient of 17C. The TC sits on top of a cupboard with clear space around, and I am resting it on a spacer which lifts it 12mm clear of the cupboard to give it the best ventilation. The TC has been doing a long (08:00 - 21:00) Time Machine backup today.

  • I can't see my iPhone on my Powerbook Pro, tried solution offered, still can't see it.

    I can't see my iPhone on my Powerbook Pro, tried restart solution offered twice, still can't see it. Any ideas?

    Is it a Powerbook or a Macbook Pro?
    A Powerbook is not capable of running a version of iTunes that will work with an iPhone 5 (which I'm assuming you have, since it's the only iPhone that runs iOS 6.1.4, which you indicate you have).
