Macally BT mouse won't pair with new macbook pro 13!?!

Tried deleting pref. file, reset pram, nothing will get this mouse to pair with my new computer, mouse works with other mbp w/snowleopard.

Ha, they dont even want to let me download lion with this new machine I just bought less than a month ago.
Not sure I undertstand that.  You machine came with lion didn't it?
This is not an isolated problem however, I've read alot of other people with this same situation going on, so I think I'm going to try putting snow-leopard on this thing and see if I can narrow it down to an oversight/bug w/os x 10.7.2.  
Ok, I'm confused.  Did you intend to say you are going to try to put lion 10.7.0, or 10.7.1?  The reason I ask is that if yours is a new machine that came with lion, then from what I read you cannot install a version of the OS earlier than what was originally installed on your machine.  Check some of the hits on this google search.

  • TS1569 My Apple Bluetooth Keyboard (2003, White) won't pair with my MacBook Pro

    My Apple Bluetooth Keyboard (2003, White) won't pair with my MacBook Pro anymore.  It seems just randomly became unresponsive.  I took them both to the genius bar and everything worked fine.  When I got home, NOTHING worked! Any Ideas??
    The batteries are fine, and it will not pair with my wife's MacBook either.

    iPhones and Macbooks cannot pair to each other except for internet sharing.
    Most Bluetooth operations between them (like Airdrop) do not require they be paired.
    What exactly are you attempting to do by pairing them?

  • White A1016 wireless keyboard not pairing with new MacBook Pro

    I still have (and love) the original white bluetooth Mac keyboard (model A1016, with numeric keypad and function keys). It won't pair to my new MacBook Pro. It's discoverable, appears in the list, I can select it and try to pair. Then it sits with the spinning wheel for some time before giving up.
    Oddly, if I press "return" during the spinning, it (very) briefly displays the passcode, but of course by then it's too late, and fails saying that I got the passcode wrong!
    This appears to be a Bluetooth system preference problem - is anyone else seeing this?
    This Apple technote suggests that this keyboard should work with iOS, whereas the original aluminium one doesn't (although it's not entirely clear)... if it works with iOS, I can't see why it won't work with OS X 10.8.4!

    My old Bluetooth Mighty Mouse won't work with my newer MBP running Mountain Lion, either. I suspect that the keyboard is incompatible with your new machine/OS X 10.8.x.

    What specifically are you attempting to accomplish?

  • IPhone 4 bluetooth won't pairing with my MacBook Pro and Blackberry

    I just bought an iPhone 4 few days ago, but seems I'm having an issue in pairing my iPhone with my Blackberry Bold 9700, and the worst part is I can't even pairing it with my MacBook Pro 13" 2.66GHz Intel Core 2 Duo. All devices has been in "discovery" mode, but my iPhone can't recognize any of those devices. On the other side my MBP and Blackberry recognizing my iPhone, but can not be pairing.
    Anyone could help me on this? I've been trying to search for the answer in the forum but can't find it. I found some subjects regarding iPhone bluetooth issue but can't find the answer of my problem.
    Thanks,

    Just sync, I'm not sure what else it is suppose to be able to do as I am yet to achieve a connection.
    I am assuming it should be able to sync my library, playlists, etc.

  • Bluetooth speakers won't connect with new Macbook Pro

    I just sold my Macbook Pro (mid 2012 release) and purchased the brand new lighter, faster Macbook Pro Retina display that was just released a couple of weeks ago (Mid 2014).
    There are a host of things this new Pro can't/won't do (which I didn't know upon purchasing it), but my question right now is: why won't my bluetooth speakers (which worked great with my other Macbook Pro) properly connect/work with my new one?  The bluetooth recognizes the speakers--it says they're there in the bluetooth set up--but they don't work, nor do they show up in my sound options (In my system preferences, only the internal speakers are listed as available output devices).  Why would they be visible but not able to be connected?
    Is there a fix?  Can I get my bluetooth speakers to work?  Or are these more things (along with my Apple Remote) that I have to scrap?
    Thanks!

    Me three.  Does not work at all, extremely frustrating for an educator who relies heavily on this technology

  • New iphone 5s won't bluetooth pair with new macbook pro

    How is it that Apple didn't fix this?  I have all the current software and hardware and there is no way that Apple didn't foresee people wanting to use applications to sync and work across platforms with their $3000 investment in Apple products.
    Any thoughts?

    As you are probably aware, the bluetooth profiles supported are limited: iOS: Supported Bluetooth profiles
    I don't have any idea why. You could however provide feedback to Apple at https://www.apple.com/feedback/iphone.html

  • IMessage won't sync with new macbook pro

    I purchased a Macbook pro today and I can't seem to get my iMessages that I have on m iPhone 6 onto my mac. Calendar and mail are working.

    Hi,
    It will "Sync" (or rather "display on all devices") only from the time you set it up.
    It will not grab "historical" iMessages.

    Apple Bluetooth keyboard won't pair with new iPad mini

    I have same results. I have an ipad mini and it will not pair with my apple keyboard. I bought a mini keyboard with bluetooth 3.0 and it will not pair either.  Is my ipad defective?  Or do i need a keyboard with bluetooth 4.0?  Also - the mini keypad will pair with my ipad2 and my iphone 4.  Only difference I can find is the ipad mini has bluetooth 4.0.  Seems it should be downward compatible but maybe not.. I am not a blutooth expert!

    Yes, I too had this problem.

    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.

  • Old Mac Ipod won't sync with new Macbook (help!)

    Ok so this is probably something really easy but I can't for the life of me get it to work.
    I got a new Macbook Pro recently and have been building up a new library with my older songs and newer ones I've acquired since the purchase. My problem is when I go to sync my Ipod to the new Mac my ipod automatically goes to the "ok to disconnect" screen without syncing anything. I pressed "sync" and "transfer purchases" and it still goes into disconnect mode, very quickly too.
    Its almost as if the ipod is protecting itself and dosen't want to sync to the new Mac for that reason, but that's what I need it to do. Its a 'Mac to Mac' move so its not like I'm putting a Mac ipod into a Windows computer
    What do I have to do, or how do I get to a setting that would let my ipod sync successfully on this new laptop? If anybody could help it would totally save the day.
    The ipod is an iPod classic 2008-09 120gb

    Hey Ginger795
    You would have to tell it to erase and sync the iPod. With a new library you will want to sync exclusively or set up “Manually manage music” on the iPod to make it work properly
