I cant get my macbook (2008 model running 10.6.8) to connect to the home hub 5

to connect to the home hub 5 it connects eventually but is extremely tempermental... does anyone have a fix that doesnt involve messing around with the home hub settings...
for further notes, my dads macbook (same model but running 10.7) connects and works fine, as does the 2 windows desktop computers and laptops we have, my xbox and play station 3 consoles, my iphone 5c, ipad mini, my mums iphone 5, and my dads and sisters samsung galaxy note phones.... even as i type this i can kind of see the problem being with my macbook rather than anything else.... but if someone could give a solution that would be great =] 

Howdy there SwipeatronSparks,
If your MacBook Pro still has issues when connecting to your hub, I would recommend the troubleshooting for the symptoms you are seeing in the following article, named:
Wi-Fi: How to troubleshoot Wi-Fi connectivity
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

  • Do NOT get any MacBook 2012 models if you use Adobe CS4, 5, 5.5 or 6

    Do NOT get any MacBook 2012 models if you use Adobe CS4, 5, 5.5 or 6.  All models are crashing on any dialog box popup's, i.e. they are nearly unusable for work, unless you like saving every 30 seconds.  They do restart Indesign very fast after it crashes...  Apple has made no comment on what seems to be an obvious video card driver issue in OS X 10.7.4 on the new 2012 models. There are a number of other video related issues as well, but the show stopper for us is the Indesign incompatibility.  Google "fixed" the Chrome problems by removing the 3D accelerator calls thereby slowing down Chrome on these models.

    That is a pain then.  Pretty much all of the OS included applications (finder, Mail, iTunes, Safari,...) are all fully 64-bit programs now (since Lion) so I can see where launching them when booted into 32-bit mode could cause stability issues.
    If you boot into 32-bit mode and just run the Tascam software without launching anything else, will it work?
    Was it alright in 10.6? And if so, how about keeping 10.6 in a virtual machine or on a separate disc or partition?

  • Okay, so i was on craigslist and found a guy who would trade me his  fairly new Macbook 2008 model for my brand new iPad 2. Is this a good deal and should i go throuh with it?

    A deal is only a good deal if you get the best value out of the deal.
    If you need a MacBook more than an iPad or an iPad more than a MacBook, then it's a good deal.
    Comes down to what value the use of the product is to you.

  • Trying to setup new iCloud in system preferences and get error message: "iCloud encountered an error while trying to connect to the server."

    Here's the sequence of events:
    Setting up a new iMac.
    Migration Assistant was aborted during setup and a normal setup was completed.
    Then ran Migration Assistant from the newly setup account.
    It ran fine, but put all the data in a new account called "user".
    Renamed "user" to a new name, renamed the home folder to a new name following these instructions: OS X: How to change your account name or home directory name
    Delete the account we originally created, so just have one account with the name we want and all the data, email. Works fine.
    Sign into the App Store with the account we share for purchases.
    Now, the problem:
    Go to System Preferences to setup iCloud with a new Apple ID
    Get this error: "iCloud encountered an error while trying to connect to the server."
    So I'm unable to setup iCloud for photo stream, FaceTime, etc.
    Internet works fine, we can get mail, etc.
    Rebooting doesn't help
    Ideas?

    never mind the problem is gone this morning.

  • Can' get online with my desktop even though my computer shows it's connected to the super hub

    My desktop is showing it is connected to the super hub, but it cannot go online. Each time I try to open a safari window, it shows me that I'm not connected to the internet.
    The hub has been changed by the provider and the signal strength is normal.
    What do I do?

    Did all the above and it still isn't going online...
    What did you do? If you can give more info it'll be easier to try and help.
    How are you connecting to the hub - ethernet cable or wifi?
    If it's wifi, and it's a new router, is the Mac seeing the wifi network to join,
    and have you input the new wifi password the router almost certainly has?
    I note that all other devices are connecting so this probably isn't the case, but is MAC address filtering enabled on the hub/router - it can block connections. If this is the case, you need to either turn it off in the router settings or press the 'association' button to put it into pairing mode for a few minutes while you get it connected.

  • I get photos attached to Instant Messages, but despite good wifi connection, suddenly the photos won't load to full frame, any thoughts?

    I get photos attached to Instant Messages, but despite good wifi connection, suddenly the photos won't load to full frame, any thoughts?

    Does the ext directory have the php_oci8.dll? In the original steps the PHP dir is renamed. In the given php.in the extension_dir looks like it has been updated correctly. Since PHP distributes php_oci8.dll by default I reckon there would be a very good chance that the problem was somewhere else. Since this is an old thread I don't think we'll get much value from speculation.

  • Macbook wiped clean (2008 model), and I'm not able to save the installer and can't get mac os x.  Any suggestions?

    I recently bought a used macbook (2008) and was told that it was set back to factory settings and came with all the orignal software, box etc.  The first Installer disk of the Mac os X was already in the disc drive, but I'm not able to get past where it saves the installer.  It wasn't able to find anywhere to save it.  I have no clue what to do.  Any suggestions?  Thanks for your help!

    Snow Leopard disc must look like this to run on a 2008 MacBook:
    and not say Update, Dropin, OEM, or any Mac model on it.
    2008 MacBooks could at minimum also use the 10.5.6 retail disc that looked like:
    And some of the earliest 2008 models can use 10.5.4 as well, but it couldn't say Upgrade, Dropin, or OEM or a Mac model on it, except MacBook, if it was the one bundled with that MacBook.
    If the disc is stuck in the drive, use this tip to remove it:

  • MacBook (2008) fans running most of the time

    Hi!
    I have a late 2008 white MacBook. Recently, my MacBook's fans have started to run almost all the time, even when usage isn't very heavy. Currently, as I'm writing this post, they are running at 6115rpm, CPU is at 69 degrees, Airport card at 61 degrees, and CPU usage is constantly at around 40%. I have a messaging programme on, I am writing this post and watching a Youtube video at the same time, which doesn't to me seem to be particularly heavy usage. However, the fans are constantly running.
    The fans kick in pretty much instantly these days, whenever I play a Flash game, watch a video or do Skype. Not forgetting a combination of browsing and messaging.
    My question is: is this normal? I understand that as MacBooks go, mine is starting to get a little old. However, it is in stellar condition, and the battery health is still at 90% with 671 cycles. Is there anything I can do? I want at least another year or more of quality life out of my MacBook until I plan on buying a new one, and am willing to try saving the fans on my MacBook!
    Any help is much appreciated!
    -T

    Hey Tiia Hurri & welcome to the forums.
    It's absolutely normal for your fan to kick in very quickly if you're video chatting or viewing any kind of Flash content. You'll probably see a higher CPU temp as well--all normal.
    Your computer only has the one fan. You're doing a very good job by keeping an eye on the temperatures. You probably have nothing to worry about unless you notice the fan has stopped coming on or you see it running when you having nothing CPU-intensive going.
    Unfortunately, YouTube does fall under that "CPU-intensive" category. My fan kicks in whenever I watch a YouTube video.
    I wouldn't worry about getting another year out of the computer--it sounds like your machine is doing very well & that should continue for a while.
    The one thing to watch is your battery's health--anything over 300 cycles can mean your battery will abruptly stop working, so keep an eye on this.

    I don't believe this program runs on a Mac. if it does it would be running using a Windows emulation program like Parallels or VMWare or running in Windows directly through a Boot camp partition. In any case it's running in Windows so you have all the experience you need.
