Loosing signal between my macbook pro and Neatgear 1000

I am loosing connection between my macbook pro and my netgear 1000 on a daily basis. It seems to work fine with other wifi devices such as the printer. Howevere, I do have the same problems with my iphone that also looses wifi contact on a daily basis. I have to restart the router to get it to work. What is wrong?

  • I want to share files between my MacBook Pro and G5, I am using an AirPort

    I want to share files between my MacBook Pro and G5, I am using an AirPort Extreme Base Station. I can see the MacBook Pro on the G5 and vice versa, I have file sharing turned on both, as well as Screen Sharing. I currently am sharing using Target Disk Mode, I want to know what other wireless options are available to me?
    I want to have the 2 computers able to see each other and be able to share files be drag and dropping, I also have another G4 on using Tiger I want to be a part of this happy Apple sharing family. Can someone please tell me how to accomplish my goal?
    Thanks in advance for reading and replying to my post,
    Sebastian

    The mac help is: Finder window/Help/Mac Help. It provides answers to a lot of common questions, including file sharing.
    As for the ethernet cable, you can either buy another one (inexpensive and available in many places including Walmart), or just unplug it from your modem temporarily and plug it back in when you're done.
    As for Target disk mode, take a look at this Apple article:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=58583
    Apple online support pages are also a great way to find out how to do things.
    As I mentioned, I prefer using the ethernet/file sharing method if I need to copy a lot of files; however, there is another way around if you have an external drive and just want to copy one or two files. Just plug the external into one computer, copy the file onto it, unplug, plug into the other computer and copy.

  • Airplay mirroring between my MacBook Pro and Apple TV (1080p one) has always worked fine until now. I only sometimes get video but usually just audio. Has anyone experienced the same issue?

    When using Airplay mirroring between macbook pro and apple tv I cannot see video, only hear the audio. Worked fine before. Any suggestions on what the problem could be?

    I have the exact same problem. The picture is very slow, incredibly pixelated... and renders my apple tv virtually useless until this problem gets resolved. I currently have an apple tv 3, ipad retina, iphone 4s, and a 2011 macbook air. I use the apple tv almost exclusively for mirrored content. And this is definitely causing quite a problem for me.
    I had been able to use this for presentations as well- but until this problem gets resolved - I may have to look for a backup solution/product. And I imagine that I'm not alone in this... Please get this resolved quickly!

  • Why does my Vizio hdtv say no signal when I connect my minidisplay port to hdmi cord between my macbook pro and tv?

    My Vizio hdtv says "No Signal" when I use my mini displayport to hdmi cord. It worked flawlessly for a month but randomly decided to no longer work.
    I am using a macbook pro from early 2011 running os x Lion 10.7.5 and a thunderbolt to hdmi cord. The cord has worked without a hitch the numerous times I've used it until recently. Now plugging it in will cause the macbook to flash blue quicker than normal and immediately go back to the normal screen. I know the macbook recognizes the TV because changing the input on the TV to the hdmi connected to the computer will cause the macbook to flash blue again, with the same result. The TV remains unresponsive. I have tried all combinations of turning on and off the TV and macbook with the cord plugged in and unpugged from either and both systems and in both hdmi inputs on the TV. I've changed the display resolution to every possible option with no result. The TV is not recognized as a display on either the Display section of System Preferences or the Sound section.
    It confounds me that the cord should work flawlessly until now, a month after buying it, for no apparent reason. I've been gentle with the cord, so the problem being a result of damage is unlikely. I had not updated my computer in any way between the successful and unsuccessful uses of the cord, but I have since updated my computer and the problem remains.
    I have searched for this problem on the Internet and have seen others with similar problems, but I have not found a solution that resolves my problem. I hope to avoid having to make any additional purchases.
    And a thousand and one thanks to any and all who help.

    Do you have gfxCardStatus installed?  Is your monitor set to "Integrated" or "Discrete".  You want it set to Discrete to drive the external HDMI display.
    Try resetting the PRAM and SMC
    <About NVRAM and PRAM>
    <Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)>
    Are you sure you have a good miniDisplayPort to HDMI cable?
    Do you have another HDMI display you can test against (your neighbor's HDMI capable TV).
    Do you have friend that can test the cable using their Mac and maybe their TV or a monitor that has HDMI input.

  • What would be a better choice between a MacBook Pro and a MacBook Air?

    I will be starting college next fall as a neuroscience major and I am torn between purchasing a MacBook Pro vs. a MacBook Air. Which would be a better choice considering I would be using it to take notes, creating documents, presentations etc.? I am not a person involved in heavy gaming, or major creative things. Just simple stuff but I do however spend countless hours doing research. Help!

    Personally the Airs have no appeal for me. Limited hard drive space (actuall no hard drive, it is all flash storage space) which can not be upgraded.
    Airs are to small unless you get the 13" model and for that money you can get a nice 13" MBP or even a 15" model.
    For me an Air would be a second or third computer but not my only computer.

  • Mail malfunctioning in different ways between iMac, MacBook pro and iPhone

    I yesterday purchased an iMac from a friend and under her recommendation installed OS ML on both it and my MacBook Pro.
    Now mail and the syncing between the three is being completely whacky; it works fine on my MacBook pro, on my iPhone i have emails from the last two days then it skips to emails from 2010, on my iMac on the other hand, all the emails appear to be fine in the subjects, but then the contents of the email are completely screwed up, for instance in the body of an Email from the iTunes store with the title 'Your Receipt ####' will actually have the contents of an email a friend sent me in 2007 ?!
    What is going on? Also I am really unsavvy so I have no idea if this is something I did??
    HELP!!

    Too much going on here to understand. You should break this down into the mail issues for each device and then separately for sycing. Are you using POP email, Exchange, other? How are you syncing? - iCloud, Exchange?
    If I had to guess and you are using POP, seems like the iMac had corruption in the mail database either before or during the ML update. I believe ML Mail makes changes to the database the first time it runs. Do you have a backup? You may be able to try again or restore from there.
    To understand the sync issue you need to provide more information.

  • Transferring data between existing MacBook Pro and new imac

    Hi,
    I have just purchased a new imac and I'm wondering the best way to transfer data from my laptop to the new mac. My Macbook Pro was running quite slow and was a bit tedious, so I'm concerned that if I use my current time machine backup to launch the imac, then some of these issues might affect the new computer. To be honest, I'm not even sure if you can do that....
    I was also wondering if anyone is aware of a method which I could use to keep both computers synced, but still maintain control over what info is actually synced (the hard disk on the imac is way beyond what's available on my laptop).
    Any suggestions would be appreciated.
    Thanks!

    It would be a mistake to replace a new fully functioning system on your iMac with a potentially dysfunctional one on your MBP. If you need to transfer personal data then you can connect the two via FireWire cable and use Target Disk Mode to transfer your data manually. If you have a MobileMe account, then you can sync your Mail accounts, iCal calendars, Address Book entries, and Safari bookmarks that way.
    You can use ordinary backup software to sync two computers connected by FireWire and using Target Disk Mode. You can use a USB flash drive depending upon the amount of data you need to move between the two computers. You can use an external hard drive as intermediary. However, Time Machine is not a utility intended to keep two computers synced.
    You should give thought to what you need synched, as your question seems to imply you think that means everything, but I doubt that's what you had in mind.

  • I am having trouble getting thunderbolt to work between my macbook pro and imac

    I am trying ot set up thunderbolt on my labtop and desktop.  I plugged both into the thunderbolt as well as a power sorce but neither seem to recognise the Thunderbolt.  I looked up a totorial that said I should go to system preferences and displays and change the Arragement but my display only has display and color.  I've updated both and have OS X Lion 10.7.5 on both.  I feel like it's got to be something simple I'm over looking. 

    Awesome, thanks everyone for your brilliant ideas in regards to trouble shooting this issue.

  • Transferring files between MacBook Pro and PC

    First, what's the best way to copy files back and forth between a MacBook Pro and a 5-year-old Dell PC? Would I use a "firewire"? (Is that the same thing as a USB?)
    Next, I've heard that there's some way to automate the process so that you can copy and paste or drag and drop an item to a certain location on one computer, and it's automatically transported to a certain location on the other computer. For example, suppose I'm modifying some Dreamweaver files on my PC, and I want to copy them a local website on my MacBook. Can this be done?
    I have an external hard drive that I use to back up data from my PC. I discovered that I can connect it to my MacBook. However, it's a somewhat tedious process.
    Thanks.

    In actual fact the simplest is just to use a flash USB thumb drive.

  • Sharing folders between MacBook Pro and workgroup in windows 7

    In September 2013 I was able to share folders between a MacBook Pro and 2 Windows 7 computers where all 3 computers belonged to the same workgroup.
    Leelannee Cochran (at that time an Apple Level 3 support person) was satisfied with how I did it and I understood her to say that it would be "memorialized" by Apple.
    I had a lightening incident where my cable modem was fried and had to be replaced.  Now, I am not able to share the files in the MacBook Pro
    Would someone tell me how to share files - unfortunately, I had not kept the notes

    Thank you Team ZigZag
    I have had 3 different vendors where I had to go to "higher" level support.  The most recent occasion was with my router where I overheard the "supervisor" tell the 1st level tech support person "there is no way that the router will work with a workgroup. 
    I pleaded that it had done so before I had to replace my cable modem.  Finally, I was able to share files between two windows 7 computers in the same workgroup and wrote to the manufacturer that I had done so, the reply was that they
    are not responsible for 3rd party vendors!
    As I mentioned, I was able to work my way to Leelannee Cochran who was a 3rd level support person at Apple, and she too was, initially, very skeptical and when I succeeded she offered to memorialize what I had done.  I had to use my methods to
    re-establish the MacBook on several occasions as a "sharing" member of the workgroup.  I probably have lost my nerve and therefore am unable to recall exactly what I did
    I found that  a third vendor, despite the claim that their product would work with Mac OS the higher level support person was using me as a "resource"  but my problem was that my computer kept crashing!
    Trust me, frontline (1st Level) tech support are normally very competent but  it is not easy to reach higher level tech support persons when their expertise runs out and are reluctant to call for higher level support!
    I have had similar nightmares with support and that why I volunteer here and elsewhere.  I wouldn't wish it on my worst enemies.  I have found persistence is the key.  I have, in the middle of a level 1 call where they said there was nothing
    they could do and there was no supervisor aound, hung up and immediately redialed and wonder of wonder got the supervisor within 5 mins.
    Good Sleuthing on your part
