Mac Pro doesn't recognize Magic Mouse

I have had a wireless mighty mouse without any problems but liked the idea of the magic mouse. The Mighty Mouse works fine and I've switched around the BT wires inside like many have talked about. However, when I try to setup the Magic Mouse, it isn't recognized at all. However, I can set it up without any problems with my Macbook Pro. Any thoughts?

Good question. I have a PPC with a D-LInk bluetooth (DBT-120, Rev. C) and I can't get the Magic Mouse to pair with the Mac. I downloaded the latest version, and all I get is a blinking mouse light. D-Link companyt says their bluetooth was only developed for OS-X 10.4 (Tiger) and only worked with luck with OS-X 10.5 (Leopard). There are some problems with the bluetooth keyboard (won't send wakeup from sleep mode) but it hasn't had problems with the Mightly mouse.

  • Mac pro doesn't recognize admin password

    Mac pro doesn't recognize administrator password on login, I am using Yosemite and I was using erlier and didint let me log back in password was correct at all times tries to reset password with apple id and still not working. Try disk utilities with terminal and disk is not available, when I updated from maverick to yosemite I didin't set up a disc recovery.

    There is no need to do anything to set up Recovery. It should have been created and updated automatically on your Boot Drive when you upgraded to Yosemite.

  • Mac Pro doesn't recognize USB 3.0 PCI express card

    Mac Pro doesn't recognize USB 3.0 PCI express card.  Does it need specific drivers? 

    I did a little searching for that card.  The more I looked at it the more I felt that, yes, it needs a driver, and no, one doesn't exist for the Mac.  So it looks like that is a card only supported for PC's. But to be sure, if I were in your place at this point, I would contact MSI directly.

  • Mac Pro doesn't recognize BluRay burner with Lion

    My Mac Pro would occasionally recognize my Blu-ray DVD burner, now with the Lion update, not at all.  My Apple Superdrive is recognized in Bay 1, but not the Blu-Ray in Bay 2.  Is there any way I can get my blu-ray burner to show up and be usable?  I have used Toast Titanium Pro to burn several BluRay discs before on this computer, but with Snow Leopard; even then, I would have to re-boot the Mac Pro in order to get it to remember it.

    Look back a couple months for a long thread on BR burners and support.
    Also, check and see what OWC sells and supports, and what 3rd party softare or from the vendor of course.
    Seemed like BR drive not being "present" after waking from sleep was one issue, or affecting sleep mode. Just like yours.
    I don't see that you include the make etc, you might consider that of interest.

  • Mac Pro doesn't recognize any internal drive

    My Mac Pro (2008) -- after rebooting -- does not recognize any of the internal drives. I'm running 10.6.8 and all of a sudden after reboot, the machine hangs on grey screen and I get folder w/ question mark symbol. I boot from Snow Leopard install disk but no drive shows up as being able to reinstall on. Even opening up Disk Utility from Snow Leopard disc shows no internal drive.
    Any ideas?

    Just a few additional random thoughts on this Hardware:
    A SATA controller failure should take out all SATA drives. On the 2008 model, the Optical drives are IDE/ATA, but there are two additional SATA ports (data only) on the motherboard.
    In the 2008 and previous models, the Mac Pro RAID card uses a cable called iPass to intercept the essential signals to the four Hard Drive bays and route them through the RAID card. If that iPass cable were to come loose, the four main drive bays would stop working.

  • Mac mini doesn't recognize the mouse

    Hi, my mac mini doesnt recognize the bluetooth mouse or trackpad. it does recognize the keyboard so i know the blue tooth is on

    Are the Mouse and TrackPad already Paired with a different Mac..?
    (If so, un-pair them from that Mac)
    Was a different Mouse or TrackPad previously paired with your Mac Mini..?
    (If so, remove them from your list of Paired devices)

  • Macbook Pro doesn't recognize Flip Mino camera in USB port after Yosemite upgrade

    Since I upgraded to Yosemite, my Macbook Pro doesn't recognize my Flip Mino camera in the USB port.

    I don't use FLIP, but if you get no other help here,
    consider the following ideas.
    If neither restarting your Mac
    nor reinstalling OS X fixes your
    problem, you might find some
    help if you search or post in the
    CISCO forum where Flip users post.

  • Macbook pro doesn't recognize camera on image capture

    My MacBook Pro doesn't recognize the built-in camera for a lot of my applications, including Image Capture. It doesn't show up anywhere in my system preferences. Any idea why this is so?

    (1)  Mac's built-in camera does not work with Image Capture.
    Image Capture works with external devices like scanners, some iOS devices, some cameras and RAM cards, etc.  Click this link for more info about Image capture and some of the apps that can work with your inbuilt camera.
    Click here for info about how to use Image Capture to transfer images from a connected external camera.
    For more info about Image Capture functions, see Image Capture > Help on your Mac or the Apple pages in this link.
    (2) To test for application-specific problems mentioned in the "How to Troubleshoot iSight " article, use apps like Photo Booth, QuickTime Player, iChat, FaceTime, or others intended to work with your Mac's inbuilt camera.
    (3) To test for user-specific problems mentioned in http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2090 the "How to Troubleshoot iSight " article, you must have more than one user account.  Do NOT use the "Guest" account.  Click this link if you need help creating new accounts for testing.

  • Macbook Pro doesn't recognize iPhone 4Gs

    Macbook Pro doesn't recognize my iPhone 4Gs
    My Macbook Pro 15 (Mac OS X 10.6.8) doesn't recognize my iPhone 4Gs (iOS5.1)
    Suddenly it stopped, last time was April 11 via Wi-Fi.
    Now even with the device plugged it can't be recognized.
    On iPhone Settings, the "iTunes Wi-Fi Sync" tab is grayed.
    Few days ago iPhone started to behave strangely, refusing to power off, sometimes not charging when plugged to USB port, sometimes does.
    Don't know what to do.
    Thanks in advance
    best

    What kind of phone is this? an iphone 4? or an iphone 4S? ( note there is no such phone as an iPhone 4gS)
    What you describe here is in my eyes the beginning signs of accidental damge, such as water damge of some sort.
    This is a great oppurtunity to see if the same issues you are having when connecting to your computer, replicate when conencted to another computer.
    You need to find out if there is a way to test with a new USB cord if possible to rule that out.
    Trying to isolate this to, or away from the iphone.

  • Acrobat x pro doesn't recognize epson scanner

    Acrobat x pro doesn't recognize my epson perfection 1670 scanner. Other applications recognize this scanner. What can I do?
    All software and drivers are updated.
    Acrobat x pro ver10.1.4
    Mac os x 10.8.1, mountian lion

    Twain Sane can be downloaded HERE.  Others have recommended it as well and it is a viable option if your scanner is no longer supported under Mountain Lion.
    It is a bit of work to install and configure, but the developer says a preference pane is available and makes it a bit easier. Check out the site for instructions on how to install and configure it.

  • Mac Pro can't recognize 1GB Pen Drives... How to fix it?

    Recently I keeps encountered the same annoying problem...
    My Mac Pro can't recognize the USB pen drives when I or my co-worker plug into Mac Pro's USB port.
    For a few times, if we are lucky, Mac Pro shows the pen drive on the desk top, but sometimes it can't read or write the data from/to the pen drive, many times, it simply freeze over.
    Does anyone knows how to fix such problem? It seems to me that the new Mac Pro still has some bugs needs to be sort out...
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi, Malcolm:
    Thanks for the post.
    No, my new Mac Pro system does not have USB port on the Keyboard, cause I've opted for Apple's wireless blue tooth mouse and keyboard.
    I do have 2 USB ports on the Apple's 23" LCD display, and Two USB ports on front side and two available USB ports on the back of the Mac itself.
    During the Thanksgiving long weekend, I think I might accidentally singled out the cause of my problem.
    I have my HP printer and one multi-card reader constantly pluged into the two USB ports at the back of my Mac, and always tried to use the front side USB ports for the 1GB USB Pen Drives, and that's where the problem lays!
    When I unplug the Multi Card Reader from the back USB port, and suddenly all USB ports on my Mac works just fine with the Pen Drives!!!
    So, for now, I plug the Multi Card Reader in one the the front USB port, and the rest of the USB ports on the Mac work with Pen Drives flawlessly, it seems that I sloved my problem for the time being...
    As for those two USB ports on the back of my 23" Apple Display, They can not take my USB Pen Drives, as you've mentioned that it does not have enough power for the USB Pen Drives.

    Ok, fair enough.  But since Job's death - Apple's control on leaks has been terrible.  I got the new iPhone, and I like it - but it hasn't made nearly as big as an impression as previous ones.  Because of the vast ammount of leaks.  With the iPad mini leaks, it's 99% sure to come out next week.
    Apple uses many manufacturers and it's massive also websites prefer to report on Apple whether true or false because it brings more hits.
    Amd by "others" I meant other people on iPads - not other devices/manufacturers.  It's possible to do so, I just want to know how.  I honestly don't think we'll ever be in a Post-PC era until all tablets allow us to use USB in the way computers do.
    No, USB is not the future, you missed the memo about cloud and wireless computing?

  • My Mac Mini doesn't recognize my Avengers DVD--it keeps saying "Supported disc not available." I've tried other DVD's which work, but not this one. itunes and everything else has been updated to the newest versions. Help?

    I have ALL the exact same symptoms as on my home computer.
    It sure sounds to me like something on the iPod is broken. If it's under warranty then I would send it back for repair. If not, check out some of the web repair services, such as iPodResQ etc.

  • What can I do when I try to access a URL and get the message "MAC OSX doesn't recognize internet addresses starting with "c:"?

    I recently tried to download a pdf file from a website in the UK.  Up popped a message saying the website could not be accessed, followed by this message: "MAC OSX doesn't recognize internet addresses starting with "c:".  I was able to access the website easily (its domain was "www") and the page listing the pdfs, but could not download a pdf.  Of course," c:" appears not to be a valid domain name, but why would anyone use "c:" in place of a domain name in their URL?  And what can I do about the problem?  I'm using Snow Leopard 10.6.8 and Safari 5.1.10, but also have Firefox and Chrome loaded.  Thanks.

    An address starting with c: wouldn't be any kind of domain name. C: is the drive lettering system DOS and and later uses. By default, A: and B: are reserved for your first and second floppy disk drive. All hard drives are then named C: through Z:, if you have that many. C: is normally your startup disk.
    Anyway, their PDF file is incorrectly linked to a file directly on the C: drive of someone's computer. It's not going to work no matter what you do.
