MacBook Pro 17" - MS X 10.8.1 - wireless issues

I recently updated to 10.8.1. Upon waking from sleep or going to a new location, the wireless signal indicator pulses and it loses connection and I get the beach bal when I mouse over it.
This is a huge bummer as it was perfect, flawless - before this update.
Help. Huge bummer!

See this link - the location for custom Camera Profiles for LR and ACR is the same:

  • Just upgraded to OSX mavericks on macbook pro mid 2011 version. Having a big issue here that whenever my mac comes back from sleep, i.e after I open the lid, the screen flickers and there is an error of Finder not opening properly. Any fix to this?

    Just upgraded to OSX 10.9 mavericks on macbook pro mid 2011 version. Having a big issue here that whenever my mac comes back from sleep, i.e after I open the lid, the screen flickers and there is an error of Finder not opening properly. Any fix to this?

    My daughter has had her Razr for about 9 months now.  About two weeks ago she picked up her phone in the morning on her way to school when she noticed two cracks, both starting at the camera lens. One goes completely to the bottom and the other goes sharply to the side. She has never dropped it and me and my husband went over it with a fine tooth comb. We looked under a magnifying glass and could no find any reason for the glass to crack. Not one ding, scratch or bang. Our daughter really takes good care of her stuff, but we still wanted to make sure before we sent it in for repairs. Well we did and we got a reply from Motorola with a picture of the cracks saying this was customer abuse and that it is not covered under warranty. Even though they did not find any physical damage to back it up. Well I e-mailed them back and told them I did a little research and found pages of people having the same problems. Well I did not hear from them until I received a notice from Fed Ex that they were sending the phone back. NOT FIXED!!! I went to look up why and guess what there is no case open any more for the phone. It has been wiped clean. I put in the RMA # it comes back not found, I put in the ID #, the SN# and all comes back not found. Yet a day earlier all the info was there. I know there is a lot more people like me and all of you, but they just don't want to be bothered so they pay to have it fix, just to have it do it again. Unless they have found the problem and only fixing it on a customer pay only set up. I am furious and will not be recommending this phone to anyone. And to think I was considering this phone for my next up grade! NOT!!!!

  • I purchased the Microsoft Office last September at an Apple Store. I recently had to bring my MacBook Pro back to the store because of some issues. Reboot caused me to lose Office and I no longer have the passcode. Where can I find my duplicate code?

    I purchased the Microsoft Office last September at an Apple Store. I recently had to bring my MacBook Pro back to the store because of some issues. Reboot caused me to lose Office and I no longer have the passcode. Where can I find my duplicate code? I no longer have the receipt so I can not call the business to find my duplicate code. Looking back at my bank statements, this purchase was quite spendy so I hope I will not have to purchase it again if possible! Any advice would be great!

    It should be on a stickerthat says product key on the inner sleeve inside the bos which the disc comes in.

  • Is there a way to upgrade a mid 2009 13" Macbook Pro so that it can use a wireless n network?

    I have a mid 2009 13" macbook pro, and I live in a share house. The router we are using is very far away from my room and I do not get very good signal strength. However, my phone and ipad, which are newer, and have wireless n capability, are able to get quite good speeds on this network. I think my problem is that my computer only has a wireless a/b/g airport card. I know that it is meant to be compatible with the draft IEEE 802.11n specification but I don't think it is connecting to the network as a wireless n device.
    Is there a way for me to upgrade this card? I have seen a number of cards on ebay etc but I cannot find one that matches my needs. Alternatively, is there a way to make my computer join the network as a wireless n device?

    I am not sure swapping a wireless card is an easy exercise.. I would not recommend it.
    You can hunt up a USB wireless stick that is Mac compatible..
    Or you can buy an Apple Express and use it as a wireless bridge. There are plenty of alternative wireless bridges.. you just plug them in by ethernet and use wireless.. depending on the brand of wireless router you have.

  • Mid 2010 macbook pro slow to sleep. No print queu issues.

    Hey everyone! My Mid 2010 macbook pro slow is slow to go to sleep. I have read several community forums and I've checked for old print jobs (which seems to be a common issue) and have found none. I've also reset all printers and jobs.  Anyways, it takes 35 to 60 seconds to go sleep (until fan/harddrive turns off/I see blinking white light).  This slow sleep occurs even with a complete fresh install of Mavericks, and even after installing a new SSD. I am honestly at a loss.
    I did the "pmset -g log" command and I have found two reoccurring things that I think might be the reason (though I don't really understand it fully). I commonly see "TimedOut InternalPreventSleep "com.apple.powermanagement.darkwakelinger" 00:00:15" commonly and "PreventUserIdleSystemSleep "Address Book Source Sync" 00:00:30".  I have bolded both of these below:

  • Macbook Pro cannot connect to Internet via Ethernet / Cosmetic Issues

    My Wireless Router died last night, so I connected my PC Desktop directly to the Modem. It worked like a charm.
    I then decided to connect my MacBook Pro (2.4GHZ, OS X 10.5.3) to the Modem and...it didn't work. I tried going into the network settings (turning off the AirPort Card, moving the Ethernet to the top of the list, etc.) and I still could not get it to work.
    Aside from taking it in, is there anything that I can do to try to remedy the situation, maybe a setting that I've missed? Also, there is a tiny ding on front of the bottom case. Can I get it fixed if I have the "Accidental Insurance?"

    Was the MBP working when you had the router?
    Also, did you power cycle the modem when you switched machines?  Most cable modems remember the ethernet MAC address of the computer that was last connected to it, and will not permit another machine to connect until the unit is fully power cycled (turned off and back on).  This is to enforce network provider policies of one computer at a time per account.  (Most ISPs want extra money for extra machines.)  The reason you can use multiple machines with a router is because the router performs some special functions to make multiple machines appear as a single machine to the outside world.

  • My Mail app opens unprompted everytime i reboot or awake my macbook pro from sleep.  This was not an issue until i shut down my laptop for the first time in a while 2 days ago.  ANy ideas how to stop this?

    I recently shut down my MacBook Pro for the first time in a long time.  SInce then, everytime i reboot or awake my laptop from sleep, the Mail app opens unprompted causing my computer to slow down incredibly, and some apps to freeze.  I have no idea how to stop this or why it even started doing this.  Any ideas on how to get it to stop? Thanks!

    I have this problem too with my Macbook Air. Mail opens automatically every time my laptop sleeps. I actually just asked about this in my own thread. However, it is not causing my apps to freeze.

  • MacBook Pro 8,2 (Late 2011), Mountain Lion thunderbolt issue

    Hi!
    Since my upgrade to OS X 10.8.1 (Mountain Lion) yesterday the ports on the back o my 27 " thunderbolt display no longer seems to function?
    I can hook up my keyboard directly to my MacBook Pro (Late 2011, 8,2) and it works just fine, and it was working from the thunderbolt display until my update.
    So, I'm assuming that this is a problem with Mountain Lion. Is there anything that I can do?
    Thanks!

  • Macbook Pro Retina (15") can't connect to wireless mouse and external USB keyboard

    Hi All,
    I got my new MacBook Pro Retina (15 inch) about 3 weeks ago. It works fine. I got a 30" Dell screen that I am using via thunderbolt/usb adapter. Also, I am using a thunderbolt ethernet adapter. Both adapters work fine without any problems.
    I have an apple usb keyboard connected to the USB hub of the screen, as well as my iphone cable. It is a regular, full size apple keyboard. In addition to this, I have a logitech nano connected directly to the right usb port of the macbook pro.
    This setup was working well until a few days ago. I lost connectivity with my mouse. Initially, I thought the batteries are empty. After replacing them, I still had no connection (again, the usb receiver is *directly* connected to the macbook).
    I changed a few cables here and there and noticed that I can get either the keyboard to work or the mouse but not both at the same time. A reboot did not help.
    Did anybody encounter such a strange problem already? If so, what could I possibly do?
    Thank You,
    --Martin

    Hello nikkig00,
    It is certainly difficult to use the computer if your wireless keyboard and mouse do not connect.  I found a few resources I recommend for this issue.
    I recommend reviewing this article first:
    Troubleshooting wireless mouse and keyboard issues
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3048
    If the issue persists, I recommend reviewing the section titled "Top troubleshooting tips" in the article below.  Step 9 specifically stands out to me for the issue you described:
    9. Restart your computer
    Sometimes a simple restart of your Mac is all it takes to get things running smoothly again. You may also want to try resetting your computer's PRAM and NVRAM.

  • My MacBook pro will no longer connect to a wireless network that I've been connecting to automatically for months and I'm not given the opportunity to re-enter the password.

    I am trying to connect to a wireless network that I have connect to automatically for over a year. When I try to connect I simply get the following message: "the wifi network xxxx could not be joined". I have moved closer to the router as suggested and I have attempted to run diagnostics without luck, I have rebooted, I have toggled the wifi on and off. I'm at a loss now...
    My MacBook Pro system is running OSX 10.9.5, 2.9 GHz Intel Core 17 processor, 8GB 16000MHz DDR3 memory.

  • Macbook pro Late 2013 retina display battery questions and issues

    Hi,
    So I was a bit suspicious about my macbook pro 2013 13 inch retina display models battery, its the latest macbook pro 13 inch. The website says that it will last for 9 hours but mines lasted for only 6.19 hours. All the apps I used were probably Xcode (doing coding projects), Photoshop, Safari and Notes. I did keep the brightness high and also had bluetooth on for a while. Is this a good battery life for my mac or should I go back to the Apple Store and tell them to fix my battery?
    I have all the battery logs below:
    Standby Time: 1:13 PM
    Battery Percent: 90%
    Usage Time Starting: 3:10 PM      Battery Percent: 87%

    Bluetooth also added using mouse
    I wasn't using it for one day straight by the way, I used it for 2 days without charging with these logs.

    Fayk1,
    carefully review that Web site’s claim; under what conditions does it claim that a charge would last for up to nine hours? (Note those key words — “up to”.) Did your conditions exactly match those conditions? If you want a charge to last as long as possible, then make the display as dim as you can stand it, and minimize your use of Bluetooth and energy-hungry apps like Photoshop and Xcode compilers. To maximize the battery’s life, start recharging it when it gets down to 20%.
