MacBook Pro dropping bluetooth connection with HP Officejet 100

I've recently started developing problems with my MacBook Pro (OS X 10.7.4) maintaining a bluetooth connection with my HP Officejet 100 Mobile Printer.
The problem I'm seeing is that when I send something to the printer, everything starts out okay, but then after about 10 seconds, the bluetooth icon in my status bar indicates that it is no longer connected. The printer pauses for a minute or so and then spits out the half-printed page.
Anybody else seeing this? Any suggestions on how to fix?

I have a similar issue, albeit a different bluetooth printer from yours.
According to a review on CNET's website, the dropping of bluetooth connections seems to have been introduced in the 10.7.4 update and did not exist in the 10.7.3 version of the Mac OS X Lion software.

My macbook pro is not connecting with my iPhone, help?

my macbook pro is not connecting with my iPhone 4S, help? I followed the instructions but somehow the Iphone doesn't connect!

I am having the same problem. First on a new ViewSonic, which I sent back thinking it wasn't working. Now the same problem on my new Powerbook Mac with a new Epson projector. Apple support hasn't been helpful.

My Contacts app for macbook pro will not connect with my yahoo and keeps asking for password.

My Contacts app for macbook pro will not connect with my yahoo account and repeatedly asks for yahoo password, any soliutions to this?

This is due to a change in Yahoo's security settings. You need to go into your Yahoo account settings and create a special App Password, then use that password in Contacts to access your account. Same goes for Calendar.

Droid Pro dropping bluetooth connect

Issue: Droid Pro seems to drop its bluetooth connection with late model BMW very often. Will cut a call with no notice. User had no problem with previous phone in the same vehicle (BBerry 8830). Anyone experienced this issue? More importantly... is there a fix?
TIA

Hello Community members
I know how important hands free kits are. I also know that some automobiles aren't as up to date as our new devices.
I've checked the BMW's website and the Droid Pro at this time isn't listed as a Bluetooth compatible device. Here's also a link of blue tooth car kits that are available for your current device. I would contact the automobile dealership to see if they are going to cover the device and when.
Thank you

DroidX dropping Bluetooth connections with 2010 Honda Accord

I hope soneone has an answer for this one.
My phone drops the bluetooth connection with the HandsFreeLink in my car (2010 Honda Accord w/Nav) after a period of time (20-30mins). The phone call is still active. Only the bluetooth connection is cutoff. The car will not recognize the phone until I either shutoff and restart the car or pull the battery on the phone and reboot it. This does not happen with my wife's motorola flip type phone.
Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you all for posting your questions and concerns!
I can imagine how frustrating it gets when experiencing the Bluetooth connection problems! Just want to let everyone know our Product and Bluetooth Team are aware of the issues with connectivity since software update, and are working diligently to provide a permanent fix as soon as possible.
We will keep you updated!
Thanks for your patience, and for choosing Verizon Wireless!

Jaybird headphones and Macbook Pro Retina bluetooth connectivity issues

I recently purchased the Jaybird Bluebuds X Premium headphones and for awhile it would connect to my new Macbook Pro Retina 15'' via bluetooth, but now it doesn't anymore. The headphones connect just fine to my phone (iPhone 4S), and other Macbook Pros (not retina), but they do not connect to other Macbook Pro Retinas. I was wondering if this was a connectivity issue with Macbook Pro Retinas and if so how can I get around it to connect the headphones again?
Thanks

Hey there LongHorn16,
It sounds like your Bluetooth headphones aren't working with this one computer, but there is no issue with other devices that you have. I would start with these 2 steps from the following article:
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.
Reset your Bluetooth device
Try turning your device off and then on again. If that doesn't resolve the issue, see if you can reset your device—refer to the documentation that came with your device for instructions.
Bluetooth Quick Assist

If it still doesn't work, then I would next use this article to remove the device:

http://support.apple.com/kb/TA27116
Then restart your computer and pair it again:

MacBook Pro's wireless connectivity with ZTE 531 ADSL modem using BSNL broadband

I have tried to connect macbook pro with BSNL broadband internet connection using ZTE 531 ADSL modem. The connection using both wireless mode and ethernet mode failed repeatedly. Using the same modem, I am able to connect to internet through my Sony Viao running Windows 8 and HP630 running ubuntu (both in wireless mode and ethernet mode). I have tried the 'assist me->diagnostics' option in Macbook's network diagnostics. The first 4 indicators are green, but the remaining 2 (ISP and server) remains yellow. Repeated attempts were made by restarting the modem.
Surprisingly, the Macbook works fine with a newly purchased Dlink N150 ADSL2 modem. I have used the same WIFI settings ( as in the ZTE modem) in Dlink modem also. What could be the reason for this ?

Hello jayan_a_r,
From what you are talking about, it seems like you have done some good troubleshooting to attempt to sort it out. Try using a different Network Location as sometimes that could be an issue when trying to access the internet. Also make sure that modem is using the recommended settings for the wireless access.

Retina MacBook Pro is not connecting with Airport Extreme 5 GHz signal

I believe I have done my due diligence to find the answer to my question here and other places but I must be missing it. I have a Retina MacBook Pro that as far as I know should select the 5 GHz signal from my Airport Extreme (Generation 1 with 7.6.4 firmware) which is literally 3 ft. from my computer. When I click on the Airport icon in the menu bar, it is indicating a 2.4 GHz connection. I have looked at discussions which say I can give separate names to to both the 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz signals. I can't seem to find that. I also read where you can reorder the order of signal preference. I can't seem to find that either. Interestingly, I have an Airport Express that is extending the network. When option clicking on its icon in airport utility, I can see both the 2.4 and 5 GHz information. I don't se that in the Airport Extreme. I am thinking about gettng the newest Airport Extreme but if I don't need to...
Thanks for any help!

as far as I know should select the 5 GHz signal from my Airport Extreme (Generation 1 with 7.6.4 firmware) which is literally 3 ft. from my computer
A Generation 1 AirPort Extreme is not a simultaneous dual band wireless router. It can produce either a 2.4 GHz....or....a 5 GHz wireless network signal, but not both simultaneously.
If you want the Gen 1 Extreme to produce and deliver a 5 GHz wireless network, it can do so, but any 2.4 GHz devices that you have will not be able to connect to the 5 GHz signal.
A new simultaneous dual band AirPort Extreme will produce both a 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz signal simultaneously. Wireless devices will automatically connect to the best signal quality based on their capabilities and location in relation to the AirPort Extreme.

Macbook pro 2012 bluetooth problem with magic mouse

I have a MacBook Pro 2.6 GHz Intel Core i7 running Mac OS X 10.7.4
It's two days old and Bluetooth has stopped working.. I use bluetooth for my apple magic mouse.
I know it's the Bluetooth app and not the mouse as I changed the mouse batteries and double checked it with my old iMac.
The Bluetooth app has become sluggish and unresponsive.
I have restarted and logged out and in.
Run permissions.
Switched Bluetooth off and on.
Scratched my beard.
Any ideas or similar problems?

Not sure which Bluetooth app you are referring to ...
Try deleting Bluetooth preferences ...
Open the Finder. From the Finder menu bar click Go > Go to Folder
Type this exactly as you see it here:
/LIbrary/Preferences
Click Go
Move the com.apple.Bluetooth.plist file from the Preferences folder to the Trash.
Now open System Preferences > Bluetooth and try re "pairing" the mouse.

How can I fix my MacBook Pro losing wireless connectivity with Epson Stylus NX625 printer. It will work once and then I get an error saying the printer is not connected.

I can connect to my Epson Stylus NX625 through my wireless network and print a page or two, but then the next time I go to print it says that the printer is not connected. Any fixes? I have tried deleting the printer and re-adding it to my MacBook Pro OS X version 10.9.4, but sometimes it doesn't even find it, and other times it says it is connected, but when I go to print it says not connected. Very frustrated. I have also installed the latest drivers, etc.
What now?

Your computer is going to run hot while playing CPU/GPU intensive games - it should heat up and the fans should be noticably loud. As to why it's 'crashing' - can you post a kernel panic log? You may have some third-party kexts that are causing the problems.

E51 Drops Bluetooth connection with Car Radio afte...

Hi Guys,
Just wondering if anybody has seen this before. It seems like a few people are seeing this but I have yet to find a solution. My phone pairs perfectly and works as it should for about the first 30 mins, then for no reason, it drops the bluetooth connection and I either have to power my phone or radio on/off. This is very annoying as it has now dropped the call too and I am force to redial.
Sometimes it does not even last 30 mins, and might happen after only 10 mins or so.
Any ideas would be great.
Thanks.

Yes, I have a similar problem which is a real pain if the call is dropped mid-conversation. Have you installed the MS Exchange email client from Nokia because that may cause a disconnect during a poll update.
Other than that I can't suggest anything, except it would be good to get a solution to the problem!

Macbook pro won't connect with iphoto library

One of the reasons I upgraded to my new Macbook Pro in the first place is that iPhoto was hanging up or crashing on my old G5 tower, and now I can't seem to access my old iphoto library that I had backed up on my exteranl drive. More accurately, it can accesss one from 2007, but nothing more current. I'm currently running a 2.5 GHz Intel core i7 w/ 4GB 1333MHz DDr3 v 10.7.2. How do I get connected to the most current library, or at the very least get at all my photos past 2007, and will I still be able to bring in all my folders and albums et al?
Thanks!

Iphoto 2 and 3 were the 'default' names iPhoto assigned to my libraries.
So I loaded iPhoto Library Manager, and it helped somewhat. I was not able to rebuild (said its XML file contained no image records...? ) or open the most current library, but I was at least able to extract the photos ( I think I have all of them). Is there any thing else I can try? I'm not relishing re- tagging/albuming all my pics since 2007..... Yoiks.
Thanks for your help.

Apple MacBook Pro dropping wireless connection

Hi,
We have many MacBook pros that are having a hard time staying connected on wireless. Often times a user can be connected for only minutes at a time. Our wireless environment consists of 1142s and 3502 series access points. We use WPA2 Enterprise for authentication via ACS server 5.x.
The Windows 7 machines usually never have an issue. Can someone please provide some insight.?
*we use Lion OSX on our Macs.
