Mac book trouble connecting to wifi

My router was old and we received a new one.  My mac book used to recognize my router and now will not connect.  All the other devices now connect to the new router except the laptop.  Is there something special that I need to do?

Make sure you are connecting to the proper network with the supplied wireless network key on the side of the modem. If you are and all other devices are connecting except this one it may be an issue with that PC, like the wireless card is turned off (some laptops have a switch you can turn on and off). If you can connect that laptop to a wired connection and it gets internet i would suggest you check with the manufacture. Could be the wireless being turned off, or the entire network card is bad.

  • HT5569 I am having trouble connecting to wifi can you help.

    I am having trouble connecting to wifi can you help.

    connectng with a pin # will not work with the ipad. you need to find out exactly what the actual wifi password is.
    pin and push buttons are used by wifi protected setup. which is an optional feture of WPA
    here are some ideas
    go to the routers home page (typically 192.168.1.1 or 192.168.1.254) and see if you can click on "show password"
    get the manual out, it should have the default user name and password you may need to access the routers page
    if your windows computer connects, then you should be able to right click the wifi connection and click on show password as well. this is somewhere in the properties page of the wifi connection
    also with windows its a good idea to click on "save wifi connection to usb drive" this can be used to connect other windows computers and xbox game consoles as well
    if your laptop computer is a mac book you can go to the keychain or icloud keycahin and reveal the actual passowrd as well.
    look at the actual router it might have directions on a sticker on how to access the routers configuration pages
    if you enter the wrong password on the ipad you need to forget the network and try again

  • I cant get my Mac Book to connect to my Apple tv

    I cant get my Mac Book to connect to my Apple TV.  My Ipad and Ipone connect just fine.
    The Icon that should be at the top of my desktop is not there and the Apple tv mirrioring option in the Display system pref is not avalible
    Any sugestions would be great.

    If you´ve already verified if your Mac is able to connect to Airplay (note, Mountain Lion is not the point, but your Hardware is)
    try to note this?
    1. both are connected through the same wifi?
    2. you´ve entered the Apple TV with the same Home Sharing (Apple ID) active?
    * I mean, both Mac and Apple TV must be configured with the same Apple ID, and Home Sharing should be turned on in your iTunes.

  • I need advice on a quality color-laser printer to work with my Mac Book Pro and my wife's Mac Book

    Hi:
    I have a Mac Book Pro and my wife a Mac Book, both with Intel Chips.
    I'm running OS 10.7.5 while she is running 10.6.8.
    Our budget is between $200 and $400,
    We would like the following features:
    1. Wireless printing over a linksys router home network. It would be very nice to have the printer in a central location without having to have it USB'd directly into the router.  Our router has a fixed location in the house and the printer will be located elsewhere in the house.
    2. Reasonably fast to fast printing (pages /minute)
    3. Color and black/white printing if the cost isn't too much higher to get color printing capability.
    4. AirPrint from iphone 5, if possible.
    5.  High quality photo printing is not a requirement......looking more for high quality document printing (Word, pdf's, etc) and printing of material from the web.
    Thanks in advance for advice!
    Michael

    Did you already try to reset the router?
    Did you reset the iPod by holding the sleep and home button until the Apple logo comes back again?
    Did you reset the network settings on your iPod in Settings/General/Reset?

  • I have a lot on books on my Kindle account. I have downloaded the app onto my IPAD but can only access my books when connected to WIFI, i would like to read them offline. Have I missed a download step. Thanks for any help you can give.

    I have a lot of books on my Kindle/Amazon account. I have downloaded the Kindle app onto my IPAD mini by can only access my books when connected to WIFI, how can I read them off-line?

    Yes, you've missed the download step.
    Open the Kindle app and navigate to your Library. There is a tab at the bottom that says Cloud | Device. Tap the Cloud tab and tap the books you want to download to the device. You will see a progress indicator during the download. Once it's done, read away!

  • My mac book air connects to my network and gets internet access but time machine cannot find my airport base station to set up time machine

    My mac book air connects to my network and gets internet access but airport utility  cannot find my airport base station to set up time machine

    airport utility  cannot find my airport base station to set up time machine
    Normally, AirPort Utility is not used or needed to set up Time Machine backups......unless a default setting on the Time Capsule to Enable File Sharing has been changed.
    On the other hand, if you open AirPort Utility, a picture of the Time Capsule should be displayed. Are you saying here that the Time Capsule does not appear when you open AirPort Utility?

    I would honestly try this. It is how to restore your phone and see if it works.

  • Why cannot my Mac book pro connect via bluetooth my Iphone 5?

    Because the iPhone does not support the BlueTooth file transfer profile. The only phone to computer profile supported is for tethering.

  • I am having trouble connecting to wifi networks that are password secured, even though I know the passwords.

    hey guys,
    Ok so here is the problem. I am having trouble connecting to wifi networks that are password secured. I am able to connect to public wifi with no problem, but when networks have passwords on them I am unable to connect to them, and I know that passwords. I also know that i am putting the correct passwords in because I am able to connect to the networks on my computer. I have tried turning my phone off and then back on, turning the wifi off and then back on and even resetting my network passwords to no avail. The networks that are secure show up in the wifi list for networks but when I go to put the password in, it tells me "incorrect password for the network". It has never connected to it since the passwords have been put on it. I am out of ideas for trouble shooting. Can anyone else help?!

    Try a soft reset by holding in the power button and the home button in at the same time for about 15 seconds until the screen flashes and then goes completely black. Afterwards try and turn the phone back on and see if that works. Also you could try and reset the Network Settings by going to Settings--General--Reset--Reset Network Settings and see if that resolves your problems as well. If all else fails be sure and do a backup through ITunes and then try to restore the device. Hopefully all will be well now.

  • How can Mac Pro (late 2013) create a WiFi network for Mac Books to connect to internet?

    I am moving my Mac-Pro (late 2013) to a garden office.  I have an ethernet cable to connect it to the house network.  I also have a Mac Book Air which will only connect to a network by WiFi.  I can use this Mac-Pro to create a WiFi network and the MacBook can talk to the Mac Pro over this WiFi network.  But the Mac Book does not see the local network let alone the Internet, both of which are seen on the Mac Pro.
    Is there a way that I can connect the created WiFi network to one of the two Ethernet cards in the Mac Pro?
    Or what?
    Tim

    I have half cracked it.
    For some reason the first step it to turn internet sharing off.
    Then internet sharing can be configured and the wireless network set up and given a password.
    Then, and then only, turn internet sharing back on and turn WiFi ON.  All this is on the Mac-Pro (late 2013).
    Now the Mac Air sees the new network and can log on and connect to the WAN internet locations, at least via Safari.
    BUT if I use Finder on the Air, it will connect to the Mac Pro but it will not display what is on its disc. Though I can do screen sharing.  Odd.
    Also Air-Drop has stopped working, so there is no means of transferring files between the Pro and the Air.
    I am going away now for a few days and will revisit this on my return.
    Thanks for your help.

  • I have Trouble Connecting To WiFi Network with My Mac, while the rest of the technology connects to it perfectly...

    I have used my Mac for almost a year now, and I've always had no problem connecting to WiFi, but today - suddenly I've lost the connection and now I can't see the WiFi Network in the list... I have 2 WiFi's connected together at home - TP Link and Netgear...
    The internet still works on a PC which is connected through Ethernet, and the Mac itself works when it's connected through Ethernet... The first thought I had was the problem with WiFi settings, but my IPhone can connect to internet and work perfectly... So next thought was that it was a problem with my mac, but my dad has the same problem with his Mac (he also used this WiFi Network fine before)... So any thoughts?

  • Trouble connecting kodak 3.2 to mac lion, trouble connecting kodak 3.2 to mac lion, trouble connecting kodak 3.2 to mac lion, trouble connecting kodak 3.2 to mac lion

    Hi there,
    I'm having trouble connecting a Kodak 3.2 printer to my Mac (Lion OS 10.7.4) - I've tried it on Wifi but no success and the same with usb. The mac is saying Printer not responding.
    I've followed troubleshoot on the kodak support site and also done the usual uninstall - reinstall but to no avail. Any help would be appreciated.

    The first question would be if it works while directly plugged in to the machine rather than on Wifi.
