EA4500 problem connecting with my Macbook pro 2.4Gz i7 OSx 10.8.2 on first start up

Not everytime but quite a bit when I start up my macbook 2.4 Ghz, i7  with OSx 10.8.2 with a SSD +16 GB ram it wants to connect to the internet but it doesn't find my router and then I reboot and it does on 2nd attemp !
Any Idea what the problem is ? 

Hi, have you tried to check if that computer was able to get online when connected to another router. You can try to reset the router and then play around with the router’s wireless settings. Try to use /inssider/ to select the best channel that you will set on your router.

  • After the 2015-002 update to Mavericks, I keep losing wi-fi connection with my Macbook Pro.

    After the 2015-002 security update to Mavericks, I keep losing my wi-fi connection with my Macbook Pro. My Kindle Fire stays connected, so I'm assuming the problem is connected to the update. I have to be right next to the router, or sometimes the next room, to stay connected. Sometimes it stays connected for a few hours, no matter where I'm at in the house, then all of sudden it won't. Haven't found a rhyme or reason to it at all. Can anyone help me?

    Try Wireless Diagnostics.

  • I am having problems with my macbook pro and the dock.  About every fourth time I start the computer, the dock flashes on and off, then goes completely off and all I get is the spinning ball with brief moments of the cursor.  But the computer locks up.

    Do you have Parallels installed by any chance?  There is a known problem that causes symptoms similar to this.  You do not need to actually be running Parallels at the time and nothing in ActivityMonitor would point to Parallels.  An update corrects the problem:

  • Using a remote desktop connection with the Macbook pro.

    I use the remote desktop connection on the Macbook pro and am unable to exchange info between the mac and the remote connetion windows. For example, if I am writing an email from the remote connection and want to attach a document, photo etc. that I created on the Mac, it just doesn't work. It seems like the Mac and the desktop connection are completely seperated eventhough they are both on the screen in front of me. the systems I use for work are not Apple compatible and will not work on anything other than windows explorer and in my case the remote desk top connection. Any ideas!

  • My iPod nano's bluetooth won't connect with my Macbook Pro after pairing, why?

    Just purchased a new 7th generation iPod nano, synced it up to my iTunes account using the cable and charged it fully.
    All working fine, except for when I tried to then connect it via bluetooth.
    My Macbook Pro (which also has all the latest updates) was able to discover my iPod and when prompted to pair I did so and was presented with a code to verify on my iPod nano's screen. I clicked to confirm, and that is where the journey stopped.
    when I try to connect it tells me it has failed and asks if it is within range, when it was sat an inch away.
    I have tried reseting the iPod, forgetting the connection and pairing again several times, and tried to pair and connect whilst the cable was attached.
    I'm assuming it's the iPod that is at fault as my mouse is fine.
    I have run out of ideas.

    Just sync, I'm not sure what else it is suppose to be able to do as I am yet to achieve a connection.
    I am assuming it should be able to sync my library, playlists, etc.

  • HP B210a no longer connects with my MacBook Pro

    After nearly two years of almost seemless operation, my HP B210a Photosmart Plus printer does not connect through the wireless network to my MacBook Pro.  This happened despite the fact that my Internet provider, wireless router and physical set-up have remained the same.  I have gone through all of HP's suggested trouble shooting steps, incluidng powering down the printer for >15 seconds, reinstalling the printer on my Mac, using the Set-up Wizard on the printer itself and praying.
    Can anyone help me?

    Hi!
    @JoeFinkler
    Welcome to the HP Support forums.  I understand that your Photosmart B210a seems to have stopped communicating with your Mac.
    I've included the Printer Does Not Maintain Wireless Connection troubleshooting document.  It has a section dedicated to Mac OS X.
    @JLL123
    I am sorry, but to get your issue more exposure, I would suggest posting it in the commercial forums, since this is a commercial product. You can do this at http://h30499.www3.hp.com/hpeb/

  • HP Laserjet ProP1102 will not connect with my MacBook Pro

    My new Macbook Pro with Yosemite will not print on this printer. It did do so a few days ago but not anymore. In wireless mode it will not communicate with the printer (or the printer will not communicate with it.) When connected with a wire the printer does not respond.
    On my old MacPro with Mountain Lion it will print with a wire but not without.
    There was a fleeting mysterious notice saying i needed a software update but I cannot find anything to this effect on the HP website.

    Hi @DavidL1,
    I read your post and see that you are unable to print by a USB or Wireless connection. I will certainly do my best to help you.
    Make sure Safari is set as the default browser. (sometimes the EWS won't open if it isn't set as the default)
    Open Safari, across the top select the Safari menu, select Preferences, General, set as default.
    Restore the printer's default wireless settings:
    1. Turn the product off.
    2. Press and hold the wireless button and the cancel button and then turn the product on.
    3. Hold the buttons until the printer stops making noise, then release the buttons.
    Print a a Configuration Page to make sure the IPv4 and SSID are cleared of the old settings.

  • InFocus X2 Can't Connect with New MacBook Pro

    I'm trying to use my old (but reliable) InFocus X2 projector with a new MacBook Pro I recently purchased. I have the correct adapter (mini-port), but the inFocus X2 is just not able to find the mac. It just shows "searching...."
    The X2 projector shows up on my "Detect Displays" window on the Mac.
    Any "words of wisdom?" I was able to connect to this projector with my two older macbooks okay.

  • Slow PAN connection with new MacBook Pro

    I have an older MackBook Pro, one of the first, running 10.5.5 and and brand new MacBook Pro bought today.
    When I use Bluetooth to hook via PAN to the older MBP I get 65-85k downloads, when I use the new MBP I get a stuttering 3-6k. I've used the same setup pair procedure with both MBPs and even gone as far as retraining the older MBP and eliminating it for the phone/shutting off the older machine with no luck.
    Any ideas ?

    I have pair and deleted the AT&T Tilt several times on both my old MBP and my new MBP. The Old MBP still performs a full speed when using PAN to connect to the internet. My new MBP is a DOG through PAN, 3-4k max download with long periods of no activity.
    I've looked at both computers Preference files and they are basically the same. There is a difference between the Bluetooth software on the two machines even though they both run 10.5.5, I guess different bluetooth chips?
    The older MBP uses a Cambridge chipset
    The new MBP reports a Broadcom chipset.
    I'm getting a bad feeling from this switch...

  • Bluetooth speakers won't connect with new Macbook Pro

    I just sold my Macbook Pro (mid 2012 release) and purchased the brand new lighter, faster Macbook Pro Retina display that was just released a couple of weeks ago (Mid 2014).
    There are a host of things this new Pro can't/won't do (which I didn't know upon purchasing it), but my question right now is: why won't my bluetooth speakers (which worked great with my other Macbook Pro) properly connect/work with my new one?  The bluetooth recognizes the speakers--it says they're there in the bluetooth set up--but they don't work, nor do they show up in my sound options (In my system preferences, only the internal speakers are listed as available output devices).  Why would they be visible but not able to be connected?
    Is there a fix?  Can I get my bluetooth speakers to work?  Or are these more things (along with my Apple Remote) that I have to scrap?
    Thanks!

  • I use web mail from lotus notes and need Firefox to connect with my MacBook Pro. Since updating to version four I no longer have the ability to see or open attachements. What I am doing wrong?

    I updated my MacBook Pro with version 4 yesterday. I access my company's lotus notes with this browser. I can access the web site, but cannot open attachments. The message I received is that I have removed the attachment. I haven't. The text that states the name of the attachment is there. I can click on it but it won't open and there is nothing in the attachment box in Web Mail.

    Try the "light mode". Surprise :)

  • Hi, there! My iPhone 4S refuses to connect with my MacBook Pro, via Bluetooth... Any tips?

    I start the whole process as indicated. Then, my MacBook Pro recognizes my iPhone 4S and starts the pairing. But when I try to pair my iPhone w/ my MacBook, the 4S indicates "the connection failed", and also says "the MacBook Pro isn't compatible"!
    Please, if you could help me I'd really appreciate. Tks!
