Losing Internet Constantly with New MacBook Pro

I just got my new MacBook Pro and am seeing constant drops in my internet connection. I know it isn't the connection or the strength of the connection because I've got my old MBP right beside it and it has internet at all times.
Is there a fix for this?

Got the same problem, with macbook pro 13", if I go up to the router logs on no problem , I can then go anywher in the house an still
stays on, if it goes to sleep when wakes up connection is lost.
Only appeared to start after updates, my son has a macbook pro 17", but hasn't switched to Lion yet has no problems.
Is this a Lion software problem ?, I know its not the wifi as my iphone 4 has no trouble at all.

Experiencing Slow Internet Connections with new Macbook Pro

I have had the laptop since December and I have had several problems regarding the internet. Just a little background, I have always had pretty fast internet and have never experienced any of these problems with any other computers. My family owns 2 other PC's(ew) and they don't have any problems with internet speed.
Examples:
-90% of the time my arrow will not change to the hand when something is clickable
-downloading songs takes forever, even when they are only 10 megabytes
-pages wont load even simple ones such as search engines
The overall feel of my connection is slow and the sites i use are the basic ones which dont require too many flashy things.
When I reset my modem the internet works better for a little bit but then goes back to its old ways.
If you guys could give me any tips on the preferences i should have please help

How are you connected to the internet?
How large is your hard drive and how much hard drive space do you have left?

Why does the internet on my new macbook pro not work when my old macbook's does?

Why does the internet on my new macbook pro not work when my old macbook's does? I'll have to turn the wifi off and back on multiple times to get the internet to continue to work on my Macbook Pro (running mountain lion but did it on lion also) when it runs fine on my old white Macbook (running lion). Is there something I can do to fix it or do I just have to deal with it?

Here is your fix .. I have uploaded my properly calibrated profile get it here :
http://www.megaupload.com/?d=YAJL6A9X
And it should go to your user folder/Library/ColorSync/Profiles
if you have one already you can rename either one ..
and then go to system preferences - displays - color to select the profile .
you will get rid of the blue tint while keeping correct color and gamma
This is for the newer 2010 MBP's altho if same display was used might also give good results in the previous models as well . .

Update the software. There is no reason to run a two year old version.

When did your neighbour have access to your new Mac, did you lend it to him?

Facebook problems with new macbook pro.

Facebook problems with new macbook pro. I can't publish photo albums to timeline. I can't share items onto timeline. Photos I'm tagged in don't appear on my timeline. Any help?

Yes! Been living in a hellish nightmare since Sept-Oct. Unlike you, however, Apple has been of no help. They say the iPad is unhackable, plist and crash reports are none of my business and who understands them anyway, their route tracing apps are probably not reliable. The best they could do was wipe the iPad clean. Lost photos they said would be in the cloud....
Almost immediately was back in somebody's VPN, their remote controller, video, audio, working. Got the purple buddy for the first time today. I have been invaded, my iPad no longer feels like my own, I have lost thanksgiving, Christmas, new year trying to track down the invaders, signed up for a Cisco course, set/reset passwords.
I don't know who else to contact... Or what next to do.
I've read similar frustration in other posts, scattered around the support communities. Yours is the only one that has worked toward a solution.
How did you get anyone at apple to look at your logs and acknowledge there is a problem?
Would be happy for a suggestion on how to proceed. Already been the apple store genius and tech on phone route.

Can't get internet with new Macbook pro

As the title says I can't seem to get internet with my new Macbook Pro. I get wifi fine, use the password on my router and that works, but I still can't get connected to the internet. I know the router works, as I can use another laptop on it. Any ideas on what to do? (other than call Apple which I'm doing when I get out of work.)

iTunes: How to move [or copy] your music to a new computer [or another drive] - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527
Quick answer if you use iTunes default preferences settings: Copy the entire iTunes folder (and in doing so all its subfolders and files) intact to the other drive. Start iTunes with the option (shift on Windows) key held down and guide it to the new location of the library.
Do not confuse moving your whole folder and library with moving just media files as in

which is what I think you did.

Purchased audiobooks disappeared after syncing with new MacBook Pro

I had my iPhone synced with a Windows laptop which got really slow and decided to replace it with a MacBook Pro. In between the last sync with the laptop and the first sync with the MacBook Pro I had bought a couple of audiobooks through the iTunes Store. After syncing the iPhone with the new Macbook everything was fine except the audiobooks which we gone. Originally I thought it would work as with the apps from the AppStore that I could download them again free of charge by just giving my apple ID and password. However this was not the case. Can someone please help me with this as losing these audiobooks would suppose a more considerable loss of money compared to just apps.
Thank you,
Arne

You should have transferred the purchases to your computer: File>Devices>transfer Purchases
At this point, all you can do is contact itunes support, explain your situation, and hope they grant a redownload.

D-Link Router Problem with new MacBook Pro

I have had my new MacBook Pro for less than one month and I have had weak home Internet connections ever since. I use a D-Link DI 624 revC wireless router that I bought back in February. I have it connected to a cable modem. I used to have an iBook and the D-Link worked great.
Now the airport signal never shows full strength. The signal is sporatic by showing three bars and then suddenly dropping to one or two. Just loading a web page will cause the signal strength to suddenly drop or lose connection altogether. I used to have full Internet access throughout the house. Now the wireless works only in two rooms.
Tactics that I have tried so far:
-Switched channels from 6 to 1 or 11
-Setting channel switching to auto
-Reset and rebooted
-Restore to factory settings
-Disabling SSID
-Allowing only 802.11g
-Moved the router to a different location
-Checked for possible interference
I know that it is probably my router as my Internet connections seem to fine at other places. I do not know why I would suddenly have these problems with a more powerful notebook.
I am not a network pro so I will be very grateful for any suggestions.

OK ... all those answers add up.
I bought back in February
Have you updated the Firmware in the Router, a new version (2.75) was released 7/5/2006 that says:
¤ Fixed Security Issues.
¤ Improved Performance

You could also improve the power of the signal/extend the range with an extra antenna like this

IPhone with new MacBook Pro

Just purchased new MacBook Pro. Can't find NEW firewire cables in local stores. I want to sync my iPhone to new MBP. How do I do this without losing all music and contacts?

Do you have a BestBuy with an Apple Store in a Store? If so, look back by the Apple booth - otherwise you may not find one elsewhere. I'm ordering a few extra's from http://www.monoprice.com

As Kappy pointed out, when you go to sync your iPhone it will prompt you on what you want to do - if you read the screens closely you won't loose anything. Move your iTunes over to to your new computer (either with the migration assistant or manually) before syncing and you won't have any issues with your music.

Slow PAN connection with new MacBook Pro

I have an older MackBook Pro, one of the first, running 10.5.5 and and brand new MacBook Pro bought today.
When I use Bluetooth to hook via PAN to the older MBP I get 65-85k downloads, when I use the new MBP I get a stuttering 3-6k. I've used the same setup pair procedure with both MBPs and even gone as far as retraining the older MBP and eliminating it for the phone/shutting off the older machine with no luck.
Any ideas ?

I have pair and deleted the AT&T Tilt several times on both my old MBP and my new MBP. The Old MBP still performs a full speed when using PAN to connect to the internet. My new MBP is a DOG through PAN, 3-4k max download with long periods of no activity.
I've looked at both computers Preference files and they are basically the same. There is a difference between the Bluetooth software on the two machines even though they both run 10.5.5, I guess different bluetooth chips?
The older MBP uses a Cambridge chipset
The new MBP reports a Broadcom chipset.
I'm getting a bad feeling from this switch...

HT1338 No themes available in iMovie with new Macbook Pro

I just bought a new Macbook Pro today and I'm trying to make a movie with iMovie but none of the project themes are available. When I go to File, Project themes is light gray and can't be selected. Likewise, when I click the "T" icon, it says "no themes." It's as if I'm missing the folder of project themes completely. Has anyone else experienced this?
Thanks!

Thank you for your clear answer! All the answers from Google I found apparently came from people that purchased Mountain Lion from the App Store instead of having it pre-installed, which got me confused.
I purchased the Macbook new from an authorised reseller, not directly from an Apple Store. However the store is pretty big and common in Holland (www.dixons.nl) so that won't be an issue.
So you're saying I can simple put the SSD in, boot with command+R while being connected to the internet and install through the recovery partition directly of the internet.
Seems like a very easy system, I guess i'm just used to old fashion having the operating system on an external drive or cd in order to make a clean install.
*Will it be a problem to leave the original HDD in alongside with the new SSD? I guess in the boot menu you can choose what to do with each drive?
I will be using the original 500gig HDD for storage, simply installing the SSD in order to boost he performance of the Macbook.
