MacBook Pro 15 inch 2013 late not pairing with iPhone 6 Plus
I have Yosemite and have iPhone 6 Plus running latest OS updates. Whenever I tried to pair my iPhone through Bluetooth (for Hand-off or Continuity application to work), the connection status in both devices go "Not Connected" mode. I have done SMC reset, deleted the Bluetooth plist file as mentioned in some blogs.
Not sure what is the step I may be missing.
FYI, I had the same issue several months back with my iPhone 5 which got resolved with the deletion of plist file. Now the same magic do not seem to work.
Appreciate valuable input
Hello ramachandranfromchennai,
Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities. I understand that you wish to use Handoff and Continuity features between your iPhone 6 Plus and MacBook Pro. There is no need to pair your iPhone with your Mac like you would with a bluetooth mouse or keyboard. As long as your system meets all of the applicable requirements and is setup correctly, you should be good to go:
Connect your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, and Mac using Continuity - Apple Support
https://support.apple.com/en-us/ht6337
To use Handoff:
Sign in to the same iCloud account on all your devices.
Turn on Bluetooth on all the devices you want to use. Make sure your devices are near each other.
Connect all your devices to the same Wi-Fi network.
Cheers,
Matt M.

MacBook Pro's Contacts will not sync with iPhone?
I have recently installed the IOS 5 on to my iPhone but for some reason it is not letting me sync my contacts. It wiped all my contacts off my phone. I tried to sync them back to it when I got home and nothing happens. There are still no contacts there. I have even selected the tick box on the info tab of the device screen in iTunes to replace all contact information on my iPhone with the contacts form my address book on my Mac. Still that does nothing. I just have no contacts.
Can anyone please help as obviously I need my contacts.
ThanksI too just had this same problem and it took me forever to figure it out. On my iPhone in Contacts under Groups, there's All Contacts, All from My Mac and then my Gmail account. When synching my iPhone 4 in iTunes under Info, I previously only had all contacts selected, once I selected sync Google contacts and added my info, everything synched perfectly.
I think what happened is if your default Contacts view on your iPhone is All Contacts, then you see all contacts as it says, but each new contact you add goes under either All from my Mac or Gmail contacts - it just depends what your default account is, which is set in Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars on the iPhone.
Hope this helps. -
Windows 7 freezes on files copy operation on Macbook Pro 15" 2013 Late
Hi,
I use Windows installed via BootCamp on my Macbook Pro 15" 2013 Late with 512GB SSD. I installed all Apple drivers, but my laptop freezes(all windows stop responding) on a copy a lot of small files from one folder to another. After 2-5 min windows start responding again. I use Windows 7 with all upgrades.
SSD works good in Mac OS.
Seems Apple SSD drives in not work correctly under Windows.
Please help!I have exactly the same Macbook Pro as yours but mine has the matte screen. I bought mine in September 2006 but it is classed by Apple as the 'early 2006' Macbook Pro because they released the 'late 2006' Macbook Pro in October 2006, a few weeks after I bought mine :@. As I said in my post, http://discussions.info.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2307301&tstart=0 , Windows 7 is working fine on my Macbook Pro, so it should work on yours. Good luck!

Hello. I just bought a refurbished macbook pro and it did not come with any disks. Do I have to make my own bootable backup disk?

With AirDrop, sharing files has never been easier.
AirDrop makes sharing your files between Mac computers simple. And now it works between Mac and iOS, too. So with just a few clicks on your Mac, you can take a file from any folder and use AirDrop to send it to a nearby Mac or iOS device. It’s perfect for, say, sharing a document with a coworker in the next room or sending a presentation to a client across the table.

MacBook Pro retina 2013 do not start and no light on the magsafe
Hello
I have a MacBook Pro Retina 2013 13' core i5 2.5 8gb ram
My mac was open, connect to the sector with full power. I left it the time to lunch and when i came back maybe 2 hours after my mac was off, and no light on the magsafe.
Impossible to start it.
I tried the key sequence, nothing worked.
I used the magsafe of a friend who have the same model, i had i green light for 10s before it turn slowly off. and nothing worked too.
One of my neighbor on the same building, had the same problem at the same time, computer open (not a mac) and it turn off impossible to start it, he had to disconnect/reconnect the battery to solve the problem.
May it be a power surge?
Did i need to open it and disconnect the battery on the motherboard?
Thank you for your help.A Few things to try if you haven't already:
1. Try unplugging the charger from both the wall and from your MacBook Pro. Now, make sure the powerpoint the MacBook was connected to works by plugging it in any electrical appliance you have. After unplugging the test electrical appliance and verifying that everything is OK with the electrical source, wait a minute or two and just plug the charger back into your MacBook and the powerpoint.
2. A possible problem could be a MagSafe port not working correctly. Look for any kind of debris inside the port that might prevent it from connecting the power adapter correctly to your MacBook. On the adapter, take a quick look at the DC connector for any type of debris and carefully check if any of the pins are missing, are bent, or stuck down.
3. Try a quick restart. Just press CMD CTRL ALT EJECT For about 5 seconds.
4. Try CMD, CTRL and POWER for about 5 seconds.
5. If none of this works, my last suggestion is removing the battery connecters and power supplies ect and holding the power button for a few seconds and reconnecting everything. -
Setting up my brand new MacBook Pro and it will not connect to the wifi network. Nothing wrong with the network which is happily working for my iPhone and iPad! Suggestions accepted for making this connection.
Fixing this is a two step process:
1) System preferences > WiFi/Airport ...
... check [√] Ask to join new networks
"Known networks will be joined automatically.
If no known networks are available, you will
be asked before joining a new network."
2) Remove unwanted networks from the list of "known" networks under
System preferences > WiFi/Airport > (Advanced) > | Airport/WiFi pane ...
Close the window and save changes. If no joy, do a restart to ensure you are playing under the new rules. -

I am purchasing tv shows from the itunes store to my macbook pro. I can't sync them to my itouch. I used to get 2 version to download an HD and non HD no longer happening. What is the problem? Never had an issue before just started.
You did everything 'right' and yet in most cases such as you present, it turns out to be a bad SATA cable 99% of the time.
I, too, have a Late 2011 15" model and never had a problem with my SATA cable and my SSD. Most people don't. But then there are those few who do.
You can likely find a 'warrantied' cable on www.ifixit.com - however, I've never heard of anyone having problems with the much less expensive options on eBay!

After I updated my OS on my Macbook Pro, the mouse pad does not swipe as expected. I have to use the arrow keys. Any suggestions?
a brody, I will take a look. The internal drive works (i.e., the battery, it spins, etc.) it just has a bit of trouble recognizing all CD's so I tend to use the external one since it works consistently. Do you still think this might be the issue? The apple store told me a week after my extended warranty ran out that the drive should be replaced but that an external drive is not an isse, but that was a while back and this problem just started.
