How to put my Macbook Pro in AP mode

When I have a Ethernet connection, I can use Internet Sharing to turn my Macbook Pro into a 802.11n wireless router / access point, but I can't find anyway to do this without sharing the Internet. Since there's no Ad-hoc in 802.11N/Draft-N, this is the only way to do high-speed communication without an actual AP. Anyone has any ideas?

I'm not sure I understand exactly what you are trying to do. I THINK you are trying to share a wireless Internet connection with other devices, and this can't be done. You can only share a wired connection.
... but then again, maybe you are trying to do something else.

  • Is there a way to put my Macbook Pro into airplane mode?

    I am flying tomorrow and I've never brought a computer with me on a plane...is there a way to switch my computer to an airplane mode, like my iPhone does??

    Do you use Bluetooth with your MBP regularly - you always have Bluetooth on?
    If so, turn Bluetooth and Wi-Fi off being able to turn both off and on via the menu bar.
    If you don't use Bluetooth - it is already off, all you need to do is turn Wi-Fi off. 

  • How to Make my Macbook Pro's internal HDD external, when I get a SSD?

    Hey, I know there are other posts on what enclosure you can use and if it's a possibility, but I haven't seen any that tell me how I get OS X on the SSD without a disc? Can I download the installer on a flash drive somehow? Also, I am wondering if this really is a good idea, using my Macbook Pro's HDD for a backup HDD, instead of buying one? I have no use for it anyway, if and when I get a new SSD. BTW, the HDD is the upgraded factory 500gb 7200rpm. Also, do you think it's smarter to have a bigger backup drive than internal drive? In other words, I would like to get a 1TB Samsung 850 Pro SSD, and my current HDD is only 500GB.... I am a musician and need a lot of storage for musical purposes. I use Final Cut Pro, Logic Pro X, Ableton Live 9, Office, and Photoshop.... My Macbook Pro is a Late 2011 Macbook Pro 15.4' 2.2ghz quad core i7 8gb RAM. Oh yeah and a mother thing is, I think I should get an enclosure that has a thunderbolt port with usb, what are your thoughts?

    Get an externel enclosure at the same time.
    You can order from OWC
    http://eshop.macsales.com/shop/hard-drives/2.5-Notebook/
    Put the SSD in the externel enclosure and use something like Carbon Copy Cloner,  to clone the internal drive and all it content to the SSD.  Then swap them out.
    Always good to have more than one backup.

    Hi,
    Simply put(copy) the content of the UVIsoundbaks folder to where you want it. Then delete the original content. Make aliases of the content at its' new location, and move (copy) all those aliases back into the originating folders. Then delete the original aliases. That should do it.
    I'm confused about this.
    First, I put the content where I want. Got it.
    Then delete it?
    I don't have the room to put it where the application tells me to put it (not enough room on the HD), so I need to put the sample content on a external hard drive.
    Please advise.
    Thanks

    hello how to connect my macbook pro to my car cd player

    If the CD player has audio line outputs, you could tap the audio input port of your MBP.  I do question the practicality of doing so.

  • How to connect my macbook pro to a computer-to-computer network?

    how to connect my macbook pro to a computer-to-computer network?  My home computer is a Window 8 OS.  Thx.

    The easiest way, and it may work from scratch, is to share the folders/drives you want access to on your pc, noticing what are the default parameters (eg "workgroup" etc.).
    Then, you can connect your mac directly by ethernet, for instance, and, in Finder, go to > Network, you should see the folders/drives. You may be asked to provide user/password.
    Don't get confused by regular/crossed ethernet cable, as mac can cross by software, so a regular cable will be ok.
    Anyway, either you isd modem has the ability to connect several devices (multiple ethernet sockets, or wifi), or you can buy a router, which isn't expansive.

  • How to know my macbook pro supports usb2 or usb3?

    How to know my macbook pro supports usb2 or usb3 ?
    And if it is USB 2, will external hardisk which support usb 2 would be compatible with & vice-versa?
    What would be the cons?

    USB 3.0 ports were only added to those MacBook Pros that were released in mid 2012 and later.
    So you would have USB 2.0 ports on your machine.
    But USB 3.0 and 2.0 are 'compaitble,' somewhat - you just won't be able to get the throughput of a USB 3.0 to USB 3.0 connection.
