IPad mini not connecting to my macbook pro

I have been trying to connect my Macbook Pro Retina (2.8 GHz Intel Core i7; OS X 10.9.2) to my iPad mini w/ Retina (iOS7) using bluetooth. Both devices are on and discoverable. I can see the iPad on the Macbook Pro and vice-versa, however when they are paired it initially says "connected" and then goes to "not connected." When I attempt to connect using the "Send File" dialogue, it says " This device does not have the necessary services." I am trying to transfer video files from my Macbook Pro Retina to my iPad mini w/Retina. Also, do I need to transfer video files using iTunes? I'm not sure how I will access the video files after transferring via bluetooth. Thanks in advance for some help with this, I've been trying to do this for a while now (pretty frustrated).

Right now the best thing to do is be patient. The last six days many people have been reporting problems with FaceTime. The source of the problems remains unknown.

Samsung Omnia Mobile Phone does not connect to my MacBook Pro

Hi guys. I am after some advice please.
My Mac Book Pro is currently not allowing me to browse my Samsung Omnia phone by bluetooth.
It has worked previously however, it is not now. It recognises that the phone is there but when it comes to connecting it says "The connection failed or closed" - Would you like to attempt to reconnect or close this window?
I do not know how to get this to work and I cannot use the USB transfer wire as it is not compatible with Apple Macs.
I have some photos and files I would like to transfer over however, I cannot do so.
Any help much appreciated please.

Hi Elizaanne,
I understand you are having issues with HP Officejet 6700 Premium not connect to your Macbook Pro.
Sometimes the router needs to be cycled. I would unplug the router, turn off printer, turn off computer.
Turn back on router wait 5 min and turn on printer and computer.
Check on the printer if Wifi is SOLID.
From System Preferences, open Print and Fax or Print and Scan pane. If you see the printer listed
Click remove printer- button. It will ask for confirmation of delete printer.
Click the Add or + button, select the printer Bonjour Multifunction not Fax. Adding that should update the drivers.
If the Printer Wifi is not solid you will have to set it up again.
Press the Power button to turn on the printer.
Touch the Right Arrow to display the second navigation screen.
Touch Setup , and then touch Network .
Touch Wireless Setup Wizard
Then add it to you Mac 10.7.
I hope this helps.
Please feel free to contact me if you require further assistance.
Thanks

Hi Richard Gl ,
Welcome to the Apple Support Community!
I understand that your Logic Remote is not connecting. In this situation I suggest reading over the attached information and making sure that Logic Remote is set up correctly. I would also suggest trying to connect using Wi-Fi and Bluetooth.

IPad mini not connecting to the shared wifi from my MBP!

hi all
I am currently on a business trip, and set my 13" MBP to share the hard-wired internet connection in my hotel room. Yesterday this worked perfectly to provide a hotspot for my iPad mini to connect to.
However, today, my iPad mini sees the network, but refuses to make a connection (just a spinning wheel), even when right next to my MBP!!
I have restarted the iPad, I have renewed the lease (and then switched the wifi off and then on again), I have "forgotten" my local shared network and logged in again with the correct password, but nothing is working! I have switched my MBP's wifi off and on, and did not change any setting anywhere? How can this be for a brand new, three-week old iPad?
Any suggestions please? thanks, in advance

i had the same problem few days ago
Open the Settings application on your iPhone, go to “General”
- To correct the error, you need to reset the time and date of the machine: On select “Date and Time”.
- Turn off “Set Automatically”, then switch it on again”.
i dont know the relation with this error but it worked for me!

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.

Bigpond Wireless Broadband USB Modem not connecting in new Macbook Pro

Hi,
I have recently bought one of the latest Macbook Pros and used Migration Assistant to transfer data from my older Macbook. On the older laptop I used a Tesltra Bigpond 7.2 Wireless USB Modem and it connected and worked fine (using default settings and the telstra connection software), however after plugging it into the newer laptop it has been behaving srangely.
Initially it worked fine for about a day, then kept stating that 'The PPP serever could not be found' - I changed the network settings a bit, uninstalled and redownloaded the software and registered the computer. It worked again for about a day then stopped connecting again. Again, the software manager was uninstalled and reinstalled and again it worked for about a day; however it has stopped working completely now and refuses to even be found by the computer. To make it more complicating, it isnt the modem because it works fine in the old computer still!
I have a feeling it may have sonething to do with the APN address but I'm not 100% sure.
Any help to fix this would be greatly appreciated!! Thankyou in advance

Yes you are right it works fine outside your mac notebook. But it is incompatible once installed inside the system.
Simple do a google search for "WD blue series drives in mac notebooks" and see what comes up.
I am not lying to you about the problems. You have first hand knowledge that with some mac notebooks the WD blue drives don't work.

WD blue is compatible according to the manufacturer's specifications.

HP Officejet 6700 Premium suddenly does not connect to my Macbook Pro anymore

Yes, resetting the system and adding the printer allows me to print. Unfortunately, I have to do that on a regular basis. I don't understand why it will not stay connected. I am not familiar with Airport Extreme.

Hey @Cjean ,
I was wondering how things with the printer are and your MacBook Pro. Sometimes if you plug the power adapter directly into a functioning wall outlet. With it being an Airport extreme, make sure you have not connected the Printer to the Guest network.
Do not plug it into a power strip, surge protector, or secondary power source as this could cause and issue.
You could try this: Repair Disk Permissions
On the Dock, click Applications, and then click Utilities.
Double-click Disk Utility.
Highlight your hard drive/partition on the left, by default this is Macintosh HD.
Click the Repair Disk Permissions button at the bottom of the window.
Once the repair is complete, restart the computer.
Please let me know how this works out.
Thanks.

IPad mini not connecting to safari

We just got back from a trip with our iPad mini, and now we cannot open apps (except game apps) at home - the message says "initialization error - unable to download data." In safari web pages time out and say "server stopped responding." We have wifi and we have done a reset - any other ideas on what we can do?

I have the same problem. We have 2 mini iPads about 1 month old and both have stopped working but only safari. Email works fine as does everything else. Have tried turning iCloud synch off for Safari and resetting. Still says server not responding but works fine with wi-fi???

Can not connect FaceTime between MacBook pro and iPad 2. Both connected to wifi ... Both using the same account email

Both connected to wifi. Both are using same FaceTime account email address ( both my devices)

Eh la Pastenague! Je savais que tu était léthale pour l'homme mais ce sont pluôt les machines à pommes qui devraient te craindre. Merci! Solved.
For future reference.
My TC is a 3rd gen.
I actually had to reset to standard defaults not only once but twice. The first time I simply returned to my old profile but that only led to the same message error on the network settings (i.e. IP by default, cannot connect to the internet). Therefore the second time around I kept my profile as backup and re-created a new one plus a guest one.
The airport utility then signaled to issues remaining:
1) Internet access was cut - this I solved by simply reseting the cable modem
2) There were no DNS Servers - I simply copied the ones I had from the previous setup and it worked
I did have AppleCare....
I'm online again and I hope for good.
Thanks a lot
PS. a small tip - I made captures of all my settings in Network settings, Airport Utility and Network utility using Grab in case of ... if anything it is just handy to get back settings that your are missing when setting up a new configuration

22" Vizo 720p TV Display not connecting with 15" Macbook Pro

I'm trying to connect my Mid-2010 15" MBP running Mountain Lion to a 22" 720p TV. I have hooked my MBP with the same adapter to other monitors with success so I know the port and the adapter work fine. I have tried detecting displays, unpugging and replugging, starting the devices in different order, and so on. The only success that I have had is when I restart my MBP and close it so it is in clamshell mode. The Apple logo appears on my external monitor and then just shows a few, vertical pink bars across the screen. I have tried adjusting the TV settings with no luck. It says that the VGA settings for the TV are 1680x1050.
Could this resolution be the issue? Could it be possible that this monitor is not supported by Macbooks?
Any advice would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!

OK - I bought the Apple Mini Display Port to DVI plug and a DVI to HDMI adaptor. I then tried this set up on another TV in the house, a Samsung 720P TV, and after sizing the TV settings correctly, the process worked - as advertised (MBP recognized Samsung 720P).
So I trotted downstairs and tried the same process with the Panny TV. I must be snake bit. The MBP video on the TV came on when I connected the cable. The video turned off after I closed the MBP lid. When I woke it up with mouse/keyboard, the video came back on.....for about 3 seconds, and then shut off. Then it keeps coming back on every 15 - 20 seconds but shuts right back off.
I'm hanging it up for tonite before I throw the mess across the room and will tackle it again tomorrow.
Anything you want to add? I certainly appreciate the help!
