Help with Connecting Macbook Pro with LG AX355
So I recently bought the newest Macbook Pro with OS X 10.5.2. I also just picked up the LG AX355 model cell phone and have been trying to pair the two together to send files from my Mac to the cell phone.
So far, I have been able to pair the items without any problems. However, when I attempt to send a .mid file to the mobile phone, it connects and then gives me an error message on the phone that says File Transmission Failed and an error message on the Mac that says "The file transfer failed: the connection failed."
Does anyone have any suggestions? I have enabled the Bluetooth sharing already under my settings. Anything else I'm missing?
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
Well the very first time I paired the device with the wizard, it told me that I had the option to connect to the Internet via the bluetooth connection I think? As though using the Mac, I could get online with my phone.
However, when I ran the wizard for the second time, it says I don't have any services except that a computer serial port was created. So, under the Bluetooth preferences pane, I see my phone and under services it says: OBEX Object Push.

Help with connecting MacBook Pro with Cisco Routing and Switches?
I'm running a CiscoASA 5510 router with several Cisco WS-C2960-48TT-L switches on a local network to connect with MacBook Pro. I need to be able to restrict access to specific users via their computer MAC address. ie: Joe Blow is limited to connecting through Switch 1 on port 10 and anywhere else he tries to plug in will simply not work.
You need to look at the documentation that came with your router and switches. Or ask your network admin to set it up. Your question has nothing to do with your Macbook Pro configuration. MAC filtering is done in the router not in the computers/devices connecting to the router.

Re: Not getting audio from TV when connecting MacBook Pro with all correct cables.
How do I get audio from the TV when connecting MacBook Pro with all the correct cables?
Hi Lynn,
If you're positive you have the correct cables, and positive they work, they must be plugged into an input on the TV made for that purpose, then that input must be selected on the TV's menu. -

Connect MacBook Pro with Mini DisplayPort to TV?
I have a 15" MacBook Pro with the Mini DisplayPort outlet. I used to have a PowerBook which I was able to connect to my TV via the video adapter. No such adapter is included with my MacBook. How can I connect it to my TV to view videos, movies, tv shows, etcetera?
You only need a cable from MBP to Display, i.e. Mini DisplayPort Male to HDMI Male Cable
Link: http://www.cablematters.com/pc-30-30-gold-plated-mini-displayport-male-to-hdmi-m ale-6-feet-cable.aspx
It's only $9.95.
But you know, until now Mini DisplayPort can not output audio but only video. As far as I know Cable Matters Inc. has solution for audio output.If you want high audio quality Mini Displayport Male and Toslink Audio/USB Male to HDMI Female Adapter is good for you since it supports 5.1 Channel audio.
Link: http://www.cablematters.com/pc-56-26-mini-displayport-male-and-toslink-audiousb- male-to-hdmi-female-adapter.aspx
The price is $47.95, a little expensive. You will need another HDMI to HDMI cable from this adapter to the TV/Screen.
If you don't require high quality audio this is an alternative Mini DisplayPort Male and USB Male Audio to HDMI Female Adapter.
Link: http://www.cablematters.com/pc-24-32-mini-displayport-male-and-usb-male-audio-to -hdmi-female-adapter.aspx
The price is cheaper for $37.49. You will also need an HDMI to HDMI cable from this adapter to your TV/Screen. -
Problems with charging MacBook Pro with Retina display (15inch)
Today, I connected my MacBook Pro with Retina display 15inches to my charger and it did not charge but was showing that charger is plugged but battery is not charging. I checked by disconnecting my charger and I had only 2% of charge left. By the way, when I disconnect my charger, laptop works on its battery.
1. Reset PRAM. http://support.apple.com/kb/PH4405
2. Reset SMC. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964
Choose the method for:

If this doesnot help, contact Apple. -
Does the Asus BW-12D1S-U work with the MacBook Pro with Retina display?
I ordered a new MacBook Pro with Retina Display, and I want to be able to burn Blu-rays. Will any of these external Blu-ray burners work with my new laptop?
ASUS USB 3.0 12X Blu-ray Burner Model BW-12D1S-U/BLK/G/AS
Plextor PX-B310U 6x Blu-ray Combo Super Multi Drive
LITE-ON USB 3.0 12X External Blu-ray Disc Writer Model eHBU212-08 LightScribe Support
I have a Mac desktop too, so if an external Blu-ray burner will not work I am going to get an internal Blu-ray burner and install in on my desktop (the LG WH12LS38K). I would prefer to get an external Blu-ray burner so I can use it on both my laptop and desktop.In general you should be fine, but it wouldn't hurt to contact the manufacturer and ask about compatibility. If it works with OS X on USB 3, 2 will work but slower. As for density - there are 50GB bluray disks. Nice for storage.

Why will some CDs not work properly with my Macbook Pro with Retina display?
I have the external CD drive for the Macbook Pro with Retina display, but I'm finding that some CDs will not run their applications properly. However, on the older editions of the Macbook Pro (for example, on the 13"), the programs run fine. Is there something I can download to fix this problem?
When the MBP-R does not run CD applications "properly", what does it do?
Is it possible that the applications that do not run properly are incompatible with Mountain Lion? For example, might they be old PowerPC applications that relied on Rosetta to run on Intel CPUs? -

Audio Problems with connecting Macbook Pro to Tv
Hello,
I connected my Macbook Pro to my 42 inch Vizio with a Mini DisplayPort Male to HDMI Male Cable with Audio Transmission. The picture is set to Mirror image and the picture is fine but I can not get any sound to tranfer from my Macbook to my Vizio. From my understanding of HDMI I shouldn't need a the standard RCA red/white audio cords to connect the sound from my Macbook to my tv. I did hear that Macbooks made before April 2010 can not transmit audio without using the red/white audio cords.
I've looked into the sound output on my Macbook and I was assuming my Vizio would display on there to click on to convert audio transmission from my Mac to tv but I don't see anything. If anyone could help me I would appreciate it greatly.I fixed this on my HDTVs by simply turning off all automatic and post processing features.
Color/brightness etc...
Put everything possible on manual and turn off any color corrections and such things.
There really should be a Computer mode on all the HDTVs. -
Connect macbook pro with iphone 5 via bluetooth
I have macbook pro and Iphone 5 both have bluetooth turned on. When I go in to Macbook Pro I can see my Iphone 5. When I go into my Iphone 5 it shows as discoverable and searching.....What am I doing wrong? The Macbook won't connect and sync with Iphone and vice versa unless I have a usb cable attached.
Hello bstaab,
Thank you for posting in the Apple Support Communities. To wirelessly sync your iPhone with iTunes, you need to be connected using a Wi-Fi network. I found an article that has the steps outlined on how to sync your iPhone wirelessly with iTunes:
Wi-Fi syncing
Open iTunes
To set up Wi-Fi syncing, connect your iOS device to your computer with the included USB cable. Select your device under Devices on the left-hand side.
In the Summary tab, select "Sync with this [device] over Wi-Fi".
Whenever the computer and the iOS device are on the same network, the iOS device will appear in iTunes, and you can sync it. The iOS device will sync automatically when all of the following are true:
The iOS device is plugged in to power
iTunes is open on the computer
The iOS device and the computer are on the same Wi-Fi network
While the iOS device appears in the left-hand column of iTunes, you can select the content tabs and configure sync options.
Click Apply or Sync to sync the iOS device.
You can find the full article here:

boot rom 04.10.01I have somehow the same problem. I just bought the new iPhone 4S and tried to connect it to my MacBook Pro (OS X 10.6, latest version, model 2011). The Phone did not see the Mac but the Mac the Phone, so I connected the Phone via Mac.
It worked for about 5 seconds, but then I got this error message:
It's German and means that the network is not available.
Of course I tried again to connect, but I now get always this error:
It says that the device is not available...
I deleted the iPhone from the list under Mac and tried again, but it's still the same.
No my Questions to the community:
Why does the iPhone not see the MacBook?
Why does it allways disconnect?
Is Sync not possible via Bluetooth?
Thanks for your help! -

Connecting MacBook Pro with Pioneer A4 WiFi speaker
I have successfully connected my MacBook Pro 15, OSx 10.8.5, with my Pioneer A4 WiFi speaker, both thru AirPlay and WiFi. However, when using Guitar Pro, the audio is about 2-3 beats behind the visual of the tab sheet.
Is there a way I can connect, via physical cable, directly to the A4 speaker? It has one USB port. My Mac has 2 USB ports and two Thunderbolt ports.What kind of Mac & OS is that?
It's an older version of OSX, Tiger I think.
Amen, I quite understand.
Thanks. I've read that the MBP unibody wifi performance isn't as effective as other laptops, so if I can't use a USB modem and the wifi isn't up to much then I'll be stuck with ethernet.
It's just a big hassle that I didn't expect to have to go through. Some friends bought a £350 laptop at the same time running Vista. Plug the modem in, and bang, they're online. I'm on my third day of trying to set this up, and I'm now having to look at new modem specs and spend yet more cash.
I'm waiting for a monitor cable to come through. I've had to buy the miniport adapter so I've already had to pay Apples £20 tax to use an external monitor that isn't made by Apple.
It's this sort of hassle and additional expense that put people off buying Macs. After a ten year break I thought things had got better, but it's not looking promising so far.
