Macbook Pro can't see iphone4 as hard disk

In Itunes everything is ok I can see iphone but Macbook pro can't see in list of devices. Help!

Not a problem, your computer won't see your iPhone as a hard disk, as such is not supported.

    Thanks, Bob.  The website is OverflowToday.com but here is an audio show page to sample.

    An audio player "icon" if I am using the correct term should show up under this button array:

  • New Macbook Pro Can't See Other Macs

    My Powerbook and iMac can see each other over the network and do file transfers, but my new Macbook Pro can't. The other computers show up in Bonjour Browser, but when I try to connect to them (either via their computer name, e.g. my-computer.local, or by ip) it can't. It tells me the address is wrong. It can't even ping them, and they can't ping it. It's weird because I can access both the internet and the router settings.

    After I did that Airport stopped working. The menubar icon said "Airport not configured" and there were no network interfaces in System Preferences. So I tried just putting the airport prefs back, and restarting. The same thing happened, so I had to put the whole folder back where it was.

  • MacBook Pro can't see Airport network but three other macs in house can

    Very strange. I can connect my three iMacs (G3, G5 PowerPC and G5 Intel) to my Airport Extreme Network, but my MacBook Pro can no longer see the Network, and Airport utility (from MacBook Pro) cannot see the Airport base station (although other macs' Airport Utility can no problem). My MacBook pro can see 4 other networks (my neighbours' networks). Doesn't seem to be a problem with my MacBook Pro airport card as I can connect to the (non-Mac) wireless network at work with no problem. Am really confused (not the first time)!
    Installed the latest Airport Extreme firmware last week, which was the start of the problem, as I then lost the ability to connect to my Virgin Media Broadband digital TV box, necessitating Virgin engineer visiting at weekend to connect a cable modem to the cable tv box, to which the Airport Extreme station is now attached. Had problems connecting my MacBook Pro last night, but eventually managed it. All other macs connect seamlessly. Am stumped.

    I'm troubleshooting a friend's MacBook (Model ID: MacBook4,1) that is having serious Airport problems. This machine's Airport can't see ANY available networks. Sitting right next to my MacBook (identical model), hers is blind while mine can see several open and locked networks including my own Airport base station. If I choose to "Join Other Network..." and enter the network name and password for my network, her machine almost immediately gives me a "Connection timed out" error. It doesn't matter where her MacBook is, it can't see any networks anywhere.
    This is a new problem as her Airport was working fine for the first few months. I've just finished making sure all software updates have been applied so she's now running the latest-greatest, but still no Airport.
    This sounds similar to the problems other folks here are describing so I figured I'd add my voice to the chorus. I guess I'll take her machine down to the local Apple store this afternoon and see if they have any ideas. At this point I wouldn't be surprised if her Airport card was fried.

  • My external hard disk not working properly in my macbook pro . anyone help me . its seagate  hard disk

    My external hard disk not working properly in my macbook pro . anyone help me . its seagate  hard disk

    You need to get some software that allows your Mac to read and write to the NTFS disk.  There's a whole bunch of stuff out there, but this program has a good review, and you can try it for free.  I would move everything off of your external drive, reformat it into Mac OSX extended, and use it for your Mac.  You don't need NTFS anymore, unless you still have a Windows computer that needs it.

  • Macbook Pro can't see wireless network or connect to it, but iPhone can!?!?

    ok here"s the deal:
    I got my macbook pro in the states through school and it has been working fine ever since. I now just moved back home to Germany and for some odd reason the wireless network at home at my mom's won't appear in my "join network" list.
    I have tried diagnostics and advanced stuff, I have even typed in the network name and password into my preferred networks list manually... still nothing. When I connect the computer through an ethernet cable it works just fine. also searched and updated all my updates in case that was maybe the issue...
    here's the clue. my sister and her friend both also have macbooks (not pro's though) and both also run leopard and both of their laptops can see and connect to our wireless just fine. ALSO I have an iPhone, I purchased in the states and it can see and connect without any issues as well..
    I have called the German Apple support people, but they are absolutely useless and there are exactly 2 (!!!) genius bars here in Germany. one 4h and one 6h from where I live... sighs
    this is what I found in my about section, in case anybody knows what this means:
    +AirPort Card Information:+
    +Wireless Card Type: AirPort Extreme (0x14E4, 0x8C)+
    +Wireless Card Locale: USA+
    +Wireless Card Firmware Version: Broadcom BCM43xx 1.0 (5.10.91.21)+
    is it because it says "USA" and I am now in Germany? but how stupid would that be? other people that bring their American macs over don't have issues either... right???
    so yeah... HELP??? ANYBODY??? PLEASE???

    Hello,
    I had the same problem when I was traveling with my 2009 Macbook Pro. I am on a French ship and my MacBook was bought in the US. We have a wireless gaming network to play Call of Duty on that is set up on a LinkSys router. I was so frustrated because everyone else here could connect and play without a problem. My iPhone would even connect to the network but my MacBook Airport card wouldn't even recognize the network.
    It turns out that some countries use different Wifi channels. The Airport card in the US MacBook Pro is setup to only recognize channels 1-11. The European LinkSys router was broadcasting on channel 13 which is why my MacBook couldn't even see it. I changed the wireless channel on the router to 10 and now everything works great. I hope this works for you.
    Cheers
    P.S. - The US MBP can only recognize channels 1-11 on a standard 2.4GHz network. To see what channels your Airport Card will recognize, open System Profiler (located in the Utilities folder) and find the "Network" heading in the column on the left. Click "Airport" and it should display all of the supported channels in the info box to the right.

  • New macbook pro - can i use my old hard drive?

    Have a new MacBook Pro coming tomorrow to replace to an older MBP.  Everything is on the old HD and have been reading that I can switch the HDs out but would have to reinstall the operating system so all the different components from the new MBP are recognized and will be funtional.  Seems pretty easy but I don't want to screw it up thinking it's too simple so I want to see if there is a good way to pull this off or another way to do this.  My hope at the end of the process is that I have my files and software loaded on the old HD on the new MBP.  Any tips so I don't screw it up?

    The old MBP has Snow Leopard 10.6 but likely is not at 10.6.8.  If I get an enclosure for the old HD can I update it to 10.6.8 if I boot the new MBP from the external drive?
    Simple Run Software Update or go to the Apple download site and download the 10.6.8 Combo Update then run it. Your 10.6.x will be updated to 10.6.8. Then you should be able to connect that drive to your new MBP, either internally or by some type of SATA to USB adapter (enclosure or just an adapter), and boot the new MBP from that old drive.
    Be aware that Lion does not run older PPC apps. So that is one big reason for running, installing, Snow Leopard on newer Macs.

  • MacBook Pro can't see and connect to WiFi but adjacent MacBook can

    My wife and daughter both have MacBooks and can see a lot more local WiFi networks that I can on my MacBook Pro. In fact I'm using my wife's MacBook to post this topic since I can't get online with my MacBook Pro. I've compared the settings between the computers and can't see a difference. Could it be that the MacBook Pro has a "weaker" AirPort card in it or is there something I've done?
    Thanks.

    Yes and no.
    The MacBook Pro's case is metal where the cases of the MacBooks are polycarbonate.
    Since metal attenuates RF frequencies, MacBook Pros (and before then PowerBooks) have always had slightly worse AirPort performance than MacBooks (and before that iBooks.)
    However the difference should not be so great as to prevent you from getting onto your local network unless it's a very weak signal to begin with.

  • My 13in Macbook Pro can't see a wireless network but my friends Macbook Pro can

    Me and my friend both have identical 13 in Macbook Pro's except he has 250 gb and I have 350gb. Everything else is the same even the wireless card. The problem is, he can see and connect to a unsecured wireless network but i can't. Why is this ?
    Our computers can see the same networks on the list but my Macbook does not see one network, the unsecured network !!!

    I never said there wasn't an issue, just that blame could not be assigned based on what we know now and that there are many more people not having problems with Leopard and WiFi than those that are.
    In my circle of associates I know of literally hundreds of Mac owners, of which approximately three are having WiFi issues.
    I know how frustrating it is to be one of those afflicted - my stories of constant WiFi drops for the first six months I owned my MBP have been recounted in several threads.
    But it's just as frustrating to read how Leopard is just plain broken when in fact I've not seen a single WiFi drop in Tiger or Leopard since February 2007.
    This is also why I've continually urged people experiencing the problem to open an AppleCare case - it's only then that Apple Engineering can find the commonalities in cases where WiFi is failing and either fix their driver or notify the router manufacturer of their bug.
    Are there bugs with AirPort in Leopard? Of course, and I even know of one that affects me on occasion that's known, and that's a failure to reassociate with a known network when waking from sleep. The workaround is simple - toggle AirPort off and back on - but it's a known issue nevertheless.
    But each of these threads addresses an individual problem, and among the numbers of people experiencing difficulties, few report that their Mac sees no wireless networks, and that's what the advice I've given in this thread is geared towards.

  • My MacBook Pro can not find my internal hard drive.

    My computer does come on. And I have a MacBook Air 2009. Just some history, my computer froze on me one day. So I restart it and a screen with a folder and question mark showed up. So I called apple and got some trouble shooting done. Nothing worked. So they ended up sending me another installer disk. And that did not work. Could not find my internal hard drive. So I took it to a apple store and the guy who looked at it told me that it was water damaged and would cost $700 to fix. So I pushed it to the side for year and decided to take a further look into it recently. And found some information where people had the same issue and was advices their hard drive could be dead. So I'm thinking about getting a 2nd opinion and taking it some where else. I'm just wondering could I really just replace my hard drive and be fine with my computer? If its really water damaged wouldn't it not work? Does replacing the hard drive cost a lot to do?

    Its extremely unlikely your HD is water damaged, everything on your internals in your macbook Pro would FRY long before water seeped its way into your HD,....the HD circuitry on the outside of the HD however is another story.
    If your computer IS in fact water damaged, then yes, replacing the hard drive wouldnt fix anything.
    Replacing the HD yourself , IF your HD is dead and at fault, can be done by yourself easily and cost around $65.
    In any regard, on a 2009 computer....., 700$ could buy you a nice MUCH NEWER and faster like new refurbished MAC,........as such it would be best not to consider such an option.

  • Macbook pro can't see NAS drive since Mavericks upgrade

    Equipment:
    13" Macbook pro (mid 2010) running Mavericks 10.9.4, Processor  2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo, Memory  16 GB 1067 MHz DDR3, Graphics  NVIDIA GeForce 320M 256Mb, Crucial SSD 240Gb, Seagate Goflex Home NAS drive 2TB, Wifi network is BT Infinity.
    Since upgrading to Mavericks, my macbook pro cannot see the Goflex Home drive on the network at all. I am confident that the problem lies within Mavericks as the Goflex Home drive can be accessed perfectly on the same network using my older PowerMac, my iPad and my iPhone. Also, the NAS is accessible via the internet through the Seagate Share facility.
    Can anyone help me get Mavericks to see my drive?
    Any help will be much appreciated.
    Thanks.

    Thanks Csound1 for your suggestion but I checked that I was on the most up to date version of software. I have been successful though in establishing contact with the NAS by following the steps outlined here:
    http://support.seagate.com/kbimg/flash/215555/215555_EN.swf
    It means that I have to 'connect with server' through the 'Go' menu in Finder each time now and I would like to know how I can make this happen automatically each time I boot up my MBP.
    Thanks.

  • MacBook Pro can't see MY wifi connection

    Hi all,  Ok this has been bugging me for some time now, I've had a Macbook for around a year now and have notice that with some wifi routers my macbook can't see them until I  reboot the router I'm trying to find. This can be most annoying and is beginning to become a problem, my iphone and ipad can see the wifi router but my Macbook can't unless I reboot the router and then I mostly get a connection (although this is getting worse as i have to reboot the router more often) but if I leave the connection i.e turn off the MB or leave the house on returning I have to reboot the router to get connected again. I have made a few enquires in web search engines but haven't found anything of much help and the problem is still here. At first I thought it could be my router but this has happened on a few routers of friends that I have tried to connect to, although i can see lots of other connections so it shows that the MB can find routers but not all. Is anyone else having this problem or does anyone know a way to fix this?
    Cheers

    Hi guys,
    I personally figured it out on why this problem occur, well let me just hit to the point.
    What happens is that the router of the wifi channel is being changed automatically or someone might accidentally changed it. MBP can't detect wifi from certain wireless channel. So, we have to change the channel of the router wifi channel that may be detectable by your MBP.
    THE SOLUTION -
    1. Connect to the wifi from a active device to the router wifi that your MB can't detect or use Ethernet cable to get connected.
    2.Once connected, access to the router wifi menu by entering the ip address on your net browser, eg:192.168.2.1
    3.Then go to wifi setup or menu, and you may come across the wireless channel.
    4.Switch the channel from any numeric to numeric that the router wifi can make your MB detect it.
      eg: Wireless Channel - 6 (change it to -->) Wireless Channel - 11
    5.Save the settings for the router wifi, exit, restart your MB and HAVE FUN!

  • New MacBook Pro - can't see existing Apple TV

    I've just taken delivery of a new 17" MacBook Pro. I have run Software Update and so it is now running 10.4.10. The new machine replaces a 17" G4 PowerBook.
    I had the PowerBook syncing nicely along with Apple TV. Upon arrival of the MacBook Pro, I used to Setup Assistant to transfer all of my files and settings from the PowerBook. Upon opening iTines on the MacBook Pro, the new machine doesn't seem to be able to see Apple TV. For example, the 'Sync Apple TV' function doesn't seem to appear amongst the menu options, and Apple TV doesn't appear in iTunes as a device.
    What do I need to do to make the MacBook Pro see and sync with the Apple TV as my PowerBook did?
    Many thanks

    Sorry if it's obvious, but have you one through the steps of connecting to a new itunes library (pass code etc)
