Macbook Pro, update to Mavericks - internet sharing unstable (ethenet - WiFi)
Macbook Pro, update to Mavericks ->internet sharing unstable (ethenet -> WiFi)
Thanks, indeed there's not a lot there.
I was thinking that there might be a network reset option on my Snow Leopard Mac Book, like I've had a to do a time or two on my iOS devices that suddenly stop seeing the internet. Since I didn't know what that is, I set up a clean TEST user account. Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to change anything, so perhaps the internet network settings are global. Any ideas how to reset the network settings and clear them out completely?
Hard to believe that there could be something so different between Mavericks and Snow Leopard as far as common network protocols are concerned that allows one to be plug and play and the other to connect to the network but not see the internet. Could it be the hardware? A 2007 MacBook vs. a 2011 MacBook Pro?

Time Machine restore failing after 08 MacBook Pro updated to Maverick.
hi,
I have a 2.53GHz processor intel core 2 duo. 4GB 1067MHz DDR3 MacBook pro, circa 2008, and running Lion since 2012.
I have been backing up using a 1TB time capsule for the last 2 years.
Now I have just had a clean install to Maverick OSX10.9.5, but cannot see any files in the time machine pre-dating the install.
when I enter the time machine, the date bar on the right shows all the old backup dates, and will 'scoot' back to them, but all the finder window images are black, and will not populate with any data at all.
I've tried restoring from applications - that doesn't work either.
I have tried using the migration assistant and that doesn't see any HD prior to the clean install.
its bugging and worrying me (lost baby photos drama)
notebook to notebook migration help page says something about the source OS needing to be Mountain lion or newer, but does this apply to time machine back ups as well?
I didn't have this information prior to the update. boo.
can anyone shed some light for me?While in Time Machine, press the key combination shift-command-C. The front window will show all mounted volumes. All snapshots should now be accessible. Select the one you want and navigate to the files you want to restore.

Trouble opening EndNote with 2010 MacBook Pro, updated to Maverick
I have a 2010 MacBook Pro and recently upgraded to Maverick. Today, I attempted to open EndNote and was hit with the following error: "Unable to load: /Applications/EndNote X3/EndNoteX3.app/Contents/Resources/ENCore.bundle"
I downloaded the PagesEndNoteplugin2 to see if that allowed me to open EndNote and it still gave me the same error message.
I do not use Pages, I use Word.
I'm hoping someone can help!While in Time Machine, press the key combination shift-command-C. The front window will show all mounted volumes. All snapshots should now be accessible. Select the one you want and navigate to the files you want to restore.

new macbook pro loaded with mavericks. installed CS3 including prompted Java update. try to open photoshop & empty splash screen pops up-can't go further. tried newer java update-same result. shut down 4 times-same. any suggestions?

Has it occurred to you that CS3 isn't compatible with Mavericks? Try using CS9 or 10.
Sorry that's untrue. I have Photoshop CS3 running on 10.9.
CS9 or 10? Now you are just making stuff up.
Adobe claim CS3 will work, with a minor issue…
http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/mac-os-mavericks-compatability.html
The Adobe updater fails to work for me.
I was prompted to install J6RE which came from Apple, check the Apple support downloads http://support.apple.com/downloads/#java%206
Sorry can't provide a direct link, it was just a dumb 'You need … please click install' dialog.
I think the 10.9 java updater is installing version 7. -
FaceTime on macbook pro retina with Mavericks
I have just bought a 15" macbook pro retina with Mavericks and FaceTime has never worked. My account works fine on my iPad and iPhone but macbook version just won't connect and says 'FaceTime call failed. Can anyone help?
Hello there, alparkinsonpm.
The following Knowledge Base article offers up a few good steps for troubleshooting FaceTime on your Mac:
FaceTime for Mac: Troubleshooting FaceTime
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts4185
If you encounter issues making or receiving FaceTime calls, try the following:
Verify that FaceTime is enabled in FaceTime > Preferences.If the issue persists, or if you see the message "Waiting for Activation", try toggling FaceTime off and then on.
Verify that the Date, Time, and Time Zone are set correctly:
From the Apple () menu, choose System Preferences > Date & Time > Date & Time.
Enable "Set Automatically".
Click the Time Zone tab and confirm the closest city is correct.
Verify that both parties are connected to an active broadband Internet connection.
See Mac OS X: Troubleshooting a cable modem, DSL, or LAN Internet connection.
Consult Using FaceTime behind a firewall for necessary ports to open in firewalls, security software and routers.
If you encounter issues using a Wi-Fi network, use standard Wi-Fi network troubleshooting to resolve interference and other issues.
Verify the phone number or email address being used is the correct one activated for FaceTime.You can verify that you are using a valid Apple ID at appleid.apple.com. You can also create an Apple ID or reset your password from this website.
Verify that both parties have installed the latest software updates for their Mac and/or device. See:
Mac OS X: Updating your software
iOS: How to update your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch

I have a macbook pro with OSX Mavericks 10.9.5 and some keys randomly are not working. Specifically, the enter/return button, the "p", "0", ";", and all the function keys. What's really weird is that happens randomly. I've never spilled anything on it, and I can't for the life of me figure out how to fix this. Can anyone help? of course this happened after my warranty expired.
**update**
I don't know if this will help someone but I am posting this for that purpose. In the past when I first had this problem, I'd read a post somewhere (sorry, long ago, don't have the link) where an individual was having the same problem and they stated that when the MBP got heated, that's when the keys would stop working, and they went into the MBP and jiggle some stuff around (a specific wire, I'm not electronically inclined so I know NOT of what they spake!). Well I didn't want to do that but it always stuck in the back of my mind. I had given up, really, and was planning to take my MBP to the apple store. But by chance one night I left my MBP on the floor where it's cool, and when I turned it on, the problem went - poof! It seems there was some validity to the post that spoke about heat, because my problems started when I would stream foreign dramas on my MBP for hours at night, and I would hear the fan going off all the time, and in the mornings, my "p", "enter", "0", ";", and all the function keys would stop working.
So, maybe try keeping the MBP in a cool place when it's off. Since I've started doing this overnight every night (keeping it on the cool floor, out of reach of any big feet), I have not had a single problem with my keyboard.
Hopefully this might help someone. -
Why my safari browser is not opening pdf files?I'm currently using the lat 2013 macbook pro with os mavericks and all my software is uptodate?
Back up all data.
If Adobe Reader or Acrobat is installed, there should be a setting in its preferences such as Display PDF in Browser. I don't use those applications myself, so I can't be more precise. Deselect that setting, if it's selected. Otherwise do as follows.
Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C:
/Library/Internet Plug-ins
In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder
from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Paste into the text box that opens (command-V), then press return.
From the folder that opens, move to the Trash any items that have "Adobe" or “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari, and test.
The "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can also interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you may need to remove it as well, if it's present. The same goes for a plugin called "iGetter," and perhaps others — I don't have a complete list.
If you still have the issue, repeat with this line:
~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari again. -
Mavericks Internet Sharing: Access logs
Hey all,
I just got internet sharing (ethernet to wifi) up and running a while back..
The thing is that when I enter the password on my other laptop it doesn't authenticate, I have a feeling that it's related to the password use or transfer upon login.. Is there a log or a monitor mode of which users are authenticating on my SoftAP and which credentials they use?
Thanks in advance,
AaronHi Pagnamen.
Attached is the menu that I operate Internet Sharing from, as well as what my toolbar looks like when internet sharing is active. In order to turn Internet Sharing on, I go through System Preferences-->Sharing and tick the box you can see highlighted in the bottom left. I have three difficulties:
1. A problem i've had since I have started using the feature (in Mountain Lion). I will have Internet Sharing on for an extended period of time before it simply ceases to send an internet signal.
2. Another problem I have had since I started using the feature. I will begin Internet Sharing and the computer will believe it is operating normally. My iOS devices will receive the connection but will not be able to access the internet. Since Mavericks, this behaviour occasionally continues even after I cancel Internet Sharing...turning wifi off and on again seems to address this anomaly.
3. A new problem originating since my update to Mavericks. I will start Internet Sharing and the "Sharing Icon" (being the grey arrow attached) will appear for only a split-second before being replaced with the standard airport look. My computer will then be hunting for Wifi signals and give no sign that it is Internet Sharing. When this occurs, my devices do not register any wifi. The only solution is to restart my computer, often multiple times. This seems to address the issue.
I will also note that the first two issues have worsened since my update to Mavericks. This means that I can often spend an incredible amount of time simply trying to secure any form of connection that is sustainable.
Thanks again for any help you can render. -
How do I "move" (not copy) keynotes from my MacBook Pro to my iMac via sharing?
How do I "move" (not copy) keynotes from my MacBook Pro to my iMac via sharing?
Whenever you transfer something from one drive or volume to another, it is copied and the original remains where it was no matter the method you use. It is so by design: just in case you were to delete it on the one drive, you still have it on the other. However, if you no longer want the original, simply delete it and empty the trash.

my macbook pro is connected to internet via my time capsule but my iPad and iPhone won't. it shows wifi connection to the time capsule but when i go on to the internet on the iPad or iPhone, it comes up with network error. can anyone help?
This can be caused by a number of issues.
Was everything working and then suddenly stopped??
Or is this a new clean setup and has never worked.
Do you have a cable modem which is not a router and the TC setup in bridge? That will cause it. The TC must be in router mode, ie dhcp and nat.
Check the IP the MBP gets including dns and gateway..
Then check the ipad/iphone.. post what IP dns and gateway (router in applespeak) they get. -
I just got a MacBook Pro and I used Home Sharing to transfer my library from my PC. However, my PC's battery died in the middle of the process so only half of my music was transferred. The sharing option no longer shows up on the left. Do I need to start completely over and delete the content in my new library to prevent duplicates or is there a way to continue the process?

How do I clear the cache in my MacBook Pro 10.9 Maverick
How do I clear the cache in my MacBook Pro 10.9 Maverick operating system? Can anyone provide step-by-step instructions. I'm a big dummy when it comes to this sort of thing.
Hey DrSteveMc,
Thanks for the question. The following resource outlines where the cache folder is stored. Note that the Library folder is hidden by default in OS X Mavericks. To access this folder, hold down option when clicking the Go menu in Finder:
OS X Mavericks: What is the Library folder?
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH14330
Mac OS X: How to troubleshoot a software issue
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1199
If the issue does not appear to be related to preferences, a login item, or a kext file, and still persists in Safe Mode, there may be an issue with a cache file in your home folder:
1. From the Finder's Go menu, choose Home.
2. Open the Library folder.
3. Drag the Caches folder to the desktop.
4. Attempt to reproduce the issue.
5. If issue is resolved, drag the Caches folder to the Trash.
6. If issue persists, from the Finder's Go menu, choose Go To Folder.
7. Go to this folder: /Library
8. Drag the Caches folder to the desktop.
9. Attempt to reproduce the issue.
10. If issue is resolved, drag the Caches folder to the Trash.
11. If issue persists, go to step 4.
Thanks,
