Macbook Pro 10.6.8 - why am I kicked off internet (wired and wifi) every 5-10 mins? All was fine before.
Macbook Pro 10.6.8, 2 Ghz intel core i7 - --- Why am I kicked off internet (wired and wifi) every five-ten minutes?
All was working fine last time I was using this same wireless and cable... about two weeks ago. Solution is the restart constantly. Or to use System Preferences and do "diagnostics" and somehow – sometimes – that reestablishes the connection.
Is there some kind of hard reset I should do?
Thank you in advance for any advice!

com.apple.kec.corecrypto 1.0First you must backup your data if it isn't already at least twice*.
Next you must find the 10.6 installer disc that either came with the computer, or a newer retail one that is white with the Snow Leopard picture on front. 10.6.3 was the last retail version of 10.6. I do believe that Apple is still selling this retail release here.
Next, you need to boot off the 10.6 installer disc with the Option key held down, using the startup manager and erase and install 10.6:
https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4672
Then run the 10.6.8 combo update.
Then contact the App Store Billing to ask them to reissue you 10.8 update as you corrupted your restore partition and need to reinstall 10.8 from scratch. Before you install 10.8, be sure that all your applications are 10.8 compatible, by looking at this page.
Then install 10.8.
Lastly, recover the data from your backup.

My macbook pro (10.7.2) just stopped connecting to the internet. 2 other macs in the house are working fine. All 3 are in the same room as the airport. The macbook network icon indicates it is connected with full bars. We have turned the computer off and on, but no effect. Any ideas?
Have you tried turning Airport off and then on again? My own q about this is somewhere in the answered q's--what worked was either the Airport on-off or something my phone company did while I was fiddling with Airport. Good luck!

I have a 2011 Macbook Pro 15" Snow Leopard Quadcore icore 7 with 8Gb of RAM and Im a Webpage Graphic Designer but why is my Macbookpro is so slow!?
I'm opening like Skype, AIM, Chrome the Memory Hog, Adobe Photshop and Illustrator... Its so slow! I tried Onyx, CleanMyMac, iFreeMemory or just purging but still i still have to restart to get it back to normal after closing all the applications... im not really impressed with the memory swapping thing,Even though my inactive RAM is like 2GB its so SloW! Anyone knows how to fix this problem?It's hard to say why your machine is slow, but that machine with 8 GB of RAM should not be slow. Could be any number of possible problems. Try taking a look at the Mac OS X Speed FAQ.

What is the best USB powered portable 1TB hard drive for a macbook pro that allows Time machine to work, windows (thru Parallels software) and mac storage and is available in Australia?
I agree with teh OWC sggestion above, but why must it be USB powered? I find that far more unreliable, and the low power devices slow.
I'd frankly get a good external enclosure and buy a bare drive. But the OWC stuff is quite good - vastly better than some of the majors (WD being aprime example of stuff that's boderline quality and often not compatible)

I want to share my internet connection with my iPhone via the usb cable. I have a Macbook pro. What do you think? Is this possible? And if yes, then how?
If not why option available
Thanks!What Carolyn says is correct. You can, however, share an Internet connection with your iPhone wirelessly by turning in Internet sharing (found in System Preferences > Sharing.) If your MacBook Pro is already using a wireless connection, you can just connect to the same wireless network it is using.
Best of luck. -
My Macbook Pro is frozen on the login page with a white screen and only my login picture. How do I fix this? I can't turn it off and I closed it and let it charge but it's still not working. It's only 3 months old and was working perfectly fine 30min before this happened.
Hello Kierasully,
I would start your troubleshooting with the article below for issues of not being able to log in to your Mac. Start with booting up in to Safe Boot as well as resetting PRAM on your Mac. If that does not work, then verify the hard drive with booting to the Recover HD and go to Disk Utility to verify it.

Take it in for service. Your screen probably needs to be replaced.

I am trying to hook my MacBook Pro to a Sony Bravia TV via DVI to HDMI cable and the TV will not recognize the signal. I have used the same setup with three other TV's, each a different brand with no problem. Any ideas?
Is the TV set to take input from the HDMI connection?
On your computer, if you open the Displays preferences and do not see an Arrangement tab (or there is an Arrangement tab that shows only a single monitor) then there is something physically wrong with your connection. Try clicking Detect Displays just to see if the computer can now sense the presence of the connection. Check your connections.
If you do have an Arrangement tab, and it shows two screens, then click Gather Windows to bring the TV's Displays preferences on to your main screen if the TV is not yet showing an image. Set the proper resolution (probably 720p, 1080i, or 1080p). Set the refresh rate (probably 60Hz) if that preference is shown. You should see a picture at this point. I recommend turning off mirrored displays if it is enabled. -
I want to remove the monitor from my 17" Macbook Pro 2008 to use as an external for my Macbook Pro 15" 2012. How can I convert lvds to Thunderbolt and power the monitor?
It's almost impossible. The new iMacs have a Target Display Mode, but it's built to do that. Without ripping your screen out, finding an acceptable power supply, frame, and whatever electronics to convert a Thunderbolt signal to the screen, the cost will be much larger than buying a cheaper HiDef monitor that runs with an HDMI to Thunderbolt cable to your MacBook 15. In fact, you can sell your 17" MBP for a lot of money, unless it's broken or something, buying you a really sweet monitor.
By the way, I found your answer by searching this forum. I would suggest using the search function here in the futuere. -

We had a MacBook Pro stolen from our home when we were out of town and I am pretty sure we never activated the LoJack type of function on it not sure if its called lojack but you get what I am saying is there any way we can activate such hardware/app now so we can possibly recover our laptop? Any one who can point us in the right direction that would be great and we would be very grateful. Thanks So MuchLojack for laptops - if that is the product you purchased and installed, you will need to read the user manual or contact the manufacturer as it is 3rd party. You did file a police report right?

Need a internal optical drive and the Hardware Test on disks is old and outdated anyway.
Your machine has lasted a long time, congratulations, they usually only last about 4-5 years.
