Connecting my Sony BD player to my MacBook Pro wireless network.  It sees the network but it then asks for a WPA security key.  Where do I find this key?

Hi Michael,
It sounds like your router's authentication is set to WPA and thus where the key is established. Does your MacBook Pro connect to a wireless router? If so, that's where you'd need to get the key from via a web-based control panel for the router or if it's an AEBS via AirPort Utility.

    You mean you just bought a game though iTunes thinking it was for your MacBook Pro.
    So how do I get the game on my macbook pro
    You don't. You can go to Apple menu > App Store to purchase games for your MacBook.
    or get my money back.

    I had this problem and went to the Apple Genius bar 3 times and everytime they said it was a logicboard failure.. they repaired my logicboard 3 times and within a week of use the x icon would show up.. and it would only run when the power adapter was plugged in.
    But as i was fed up going back and forth to the Apple store.. I left the charger connected for about 3-4 days and one the 4th day I pressed the battery button on the side and Voila! It lit up the amount of battery charged.. Keep in mind that the battery light on the left hand side didnt lit up when I pressed the button when the x battery icon showed up
    Not to sure how long this will last but I just checked my battery information and now it shows how much cycles and etc it has.. (when before it had all zeros)
    I've found that the x battery icon only comes on when the battery is fully depleted (sometimes)!
    Btw I have the early 2011 macbook pro 13" unibody model so I wasn't able to take out the battery beneath!
    Hope this works!

  • For battery life is it better to run my newly acquired 2010 Macbook Pro on battery most of the time down fully then charge or plug it in most of the time?

    Just wondering about my 2010 Macbook Pro 13'
    For the best overall battery life is it better to run battery down each time then plug in til fully charged or just plug in and use most of the time?
    Thanks
    Calpatrick111

    Hi C,
    Run it about 30 minutes a day on batt, the rest on the power adapter. Every month or two, run the batt all the way down until it goes into forced sleep, wait five hours, then charge it all the way up.

  • HT1349 Last week I was prompted to do an update on my MacBook Pro which I did & now different things keep popping up asking for passwords for a keychain & it won't go away. I don't know what these are & I don't know how to access them. Help me please

    Last week I was prompted to do an update on my Mac Book Pro which I did. Ever since I did the update a box keeps popping up asking for login info for my keychains & they won't go away. I have no clue what these keychains are & I don't know how to find them & know the passwords for each of them. Plus now I don't get my email on here either. Please help me...

    Outside of the contact number for that you've already used I don't know another way of direct contact. Here are some things that they may or may not of had you try that might help you. If you will go to the settings app and pick general on the right-hand side you will see accessibility. Within that you can adjust a text size make the text bowl you can also increase the contrast. You can also adjust the brightness and control panel.
    As for Siri again in the settings app under general you should see Siri on the right-hand side with the switch to turn it on. If that is turned on and you're still having issues
    Try a Restart. 
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, and then slide the slider. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
     Resetting your settings
    You can also try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your device settings again.... All of the settings in the settings app will have to be re-entered. You won't lose any data, but it takes time to enter all of the settings again.
    Resetting your device
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Apple recommends this only if you are unable to restart it.
    Or if this doesn't work and nobody else on the blog doesn't have a better idea you can contact Apple. 
    Here is a link to their contacts with most of the information below.

  • I'm trying to install a game onto my MacBook Pro.  When I put the game in, nothing pops up for me to install it and when I go to "Finder" and click on the game this message pops up saying "there is no application set up to open this document".  Help!

    Does anyone have any ideas on how to fix this and get the game up and running??

    Here are the Mac requirements:
    System Requirements Mac Version (*)
    Mac OS X 10.6.1, 10.7.1, 10.8.1 or 10.9.1
    1.83 GHz cpu or better
    Nvidia Geforce 8600, ATI Radeon X1600 or better (min 256 MB VRAM)
    1 GB RAM
    2 GB free hard drive space
    DVD-ROM Drive
    Are you sure that you have the Mac version, as there is a Windows version, as well as a few game console versions.
    Sounds as though that may be a Windows or other version.

  • In hotel w/wireless network.  ATV finds network, but does not ask me for password, so can't communicate through network.  MacBook Air, iPad and 2 iPhones connected to hotel wireless, but ATV does not ask me for the password.  Any ideas?

    I have succesfully connected a MacBook Air, an iPad and two iPhones to the wireless network in this hotel.  Apple TV can see the network and "connects" to the network, but w/o asking for password.  I expected to see a screen immediately after selecting the network that asked me for the password as did all of my other devices.  ATV did not ask me for a password.  When I go to Settings>General>Network, it shows the name of the hotel wireless network, but I can't communicate with the network.  It can't set date and time.  When I try to enter my Apple account name and password, it tells me it can't log in w/o setting date and time.
    Any ideas on how to connect to this network?

    I am having the same problem. In my hotel when I connect my laptop a screen will pop up and you have to hit the button "I Accept Terms". However I can't do that with the ATV. I called the internet provider and they said they could not help me. Any ideas? Do you think the guy just doesn't know what he can do for me? I am thinking I will call later and hope to get a different technician who might know how to help connect me.

  • How Can I Connect 2 External Display Monitors to a MacBook Pro? Help

    I want to know if I can (and How to) connect 2 external display monitors to a MacBook Pro... late 2006 & the new Unibody MBP.
    I'll appreciate

    Requires additional hardware - the Matrox DualHead2Go. For the late 2006, you'd need the DualHead2Go Digital Edition, and for the unibody you'd need the DualHead2Go DP Edition, with appropriate cabling (and a DVI-to-VGA adapter for the late 2006 MBP).

  • Have MacPro wired to Verizon DSL; how do I add MacBook Pro wireless?

    I have a MacPro connected with an Ethernet cable to a Westell WireSpeed modem that is plugged into the wall phone jack served by Verizon DSL. The MacPro does not have an Airport card. My wife wants to connect her MacBook Pro with built-in Airport Extreme 802.11n wirelessly to the internet.
    I've never used a router before. Would an Airport Extreme Base Station let me operate the MacPro wired and the MacBook Pro wireless simultaneously? If not, how can I do it?

    Would an Airport Extreme Base Station let me operate the MacPro wired and the MacBook Pro wireless simultaneously?
    Yes, the AirPort Extreme or any other vendor's wireless router with a built-in Ethernet switch will provide for both wired and wireless clients simultaneously.

  • I have a new MacBook Pro.  I keep getting the message (from all different programs) that they would like to access the keychain "login".  I have run keychain repair, and it won't stop!

    I have a new MacBook Pro.  I keep getting the message "Mail would like to use your keychain "login".  How can I make this stop?  I have run the keychain repair utility.

    Hi,
    With the Finder as the Front app go to the Go Menu > GO to Folder.
    Copy and Paste the bold text below into the text field
    ~/Library/Keychains
    Highlight the Keychain.
    Use the CMD + i Keys together (Keystrokes for Get Info from the File Menu)
    In the Info Panel that appears check the Ownership and Permission bit at the bottom.
    Example Pic
    Unlock Padlock
    Check your Shortmname Appears (the (Me) one).
    Open the Cogwheel icon
    If it is Greyed Out to "Make "Shortname (Me)" owner then you are the Owner.
    Check you have Read and Write Permissions.
    You may need to check the Ownership and Permission on the ~/Library itself (you can do the same Get Info on Folders as well as Files)
    If you don't Own it then, when you have changed that also Apply to Contents.

  • Connecting a Sony DVD player to Sony STR-DH750 AV Receiver with RCA cables

    I have connected a Sony DVD player with RCA cables to  Sony STR-DH750 AV Receiver at the VIDEO inputs. I get audio, but no video. How do I connect the DVD player to the AV receiver to get both audio and video?

    Hi JB4,
    Are you using HDMI cable in addition to your RCA connection? This HDMI cable is from the receiver going to the TV using the HDMI OUT port. Another option, you are using the RCA yellow + red&white right? you may connect the yellow cable directly to your TV if it has yellow port for video.
    Thanks.
