MacBook Pro wont find my wireless

All of a sudden my MacBook Pro no longer finds my Wireless connection. All other items iPad,iPhone and even my PC Laptop connect fine and are in the same room. Airport won't find my network at all. Any ideas?
thanks

Hi,
Currently there has been a problem with my Airport Connectivity. I only have this problem everytime i connect my mini-display to HDMI converter. It stops the connection and i know for a fact that it is the mini-display adapter is the one thats causing it because I instantly get an internet connection once i unplug the adaptor. I didnt have this problem before.

New Macbook Pro. wont connect to wireless network once it has had a update

hi
bought a new macbook pro last week, when you first start it up it connects fine to a wireless network, but once the software update is compltete it says that there is an error trying to jion network. there is already a powerbook g4 connected to the network and a pc. i have re installed tiger and it can connect fine until the software update has restarted the mac and the same error is back again. do i re install it again and never update it or is there a simple way to correct the fault

My girlfriends New Macbook Pro is doing the same thing. I does connect to non-secure wireless connections such as at the airport but doesn't connect to her home wireless connection that is run by an SBC DSL 2WIRE gateway. I can connect fine on her old IBM laptop that I am on right now through this network wirelessly.
There has to be a fix for this?

Macbook Pro wont find Panasonic NV-DS60

I'm trying to get video off of my Panasonic miniDV camcorder onto my Mac. I have the 6point to 4 point firewire cable.
iMovie isn't detecting it. And it's not showing up on the System Profiler either.
Any ideas?

Hi All,
I have it working. I thought I'd let you all know because I went searching for an answer and couldn't find one anywhere.
As you are all used to when you plug a DV camerainto the Firewire port iMovie just loads and your ready to import. I did the same and nothing happened so I assumed it wasn't finding the camera. After much searching I was about to give up when I decided to load iMovie and manually try the import. To my surprise the camera was there and I was able to import as per normal. It's currently importing as I am typing this.
So plug the camera in, turn it on, open iMovie, go to import from Camera and you should see it there ready to go.
I'm using a MacBook Pro with running 10.6.7
Cheers,

Connecting a macbook pro to a verizon wireless network

how do i connect a macbook pro to a verizon wireless network? Wi-Fi connection automatically assigns an IP address and indicates that the Mac won't be able to connect to the internet. Two other MacBook Pros connect to the network without any problems. These Macs travel from home to school and back again and automatically reconnect when they are brought into the house.

I have read a few corporate IT policies and they are all PC-centric.
Unless your mac runs any windows tools such as Bootcamp Wine, Crossover, or a VM in parallels or VMware then your mac has no virus implications.
A few years ago word documents could be infected with macro viruses and although did not affect a mac a mac could pass them on. Up to date versions of Microsoft Word documents are not vulnerable to this flaw.
You could install ClamAV its a free anti virus app for the mac that would keep your IT dept happy.
Maybe I can find out what the WEP key is with a utility of some kind.
If you had a compatible usb wifi dongle and kismac you could crack their WEP key but this would be probably illegal in your country so I dont condone this activity but if you got written permission from your employer to give them a free penetration test, something that normally involves hiring a security company this would save them money and highlight the insecurity on their network.
Or use an Ethernet connection.

Macbook Pro will not remember wireless network

We have two Macbook Pros and are having issues with one of them not finding and then not remembering a particular wireless network. The other one works normally on this network, as do our iPad and iPhones.
The problem Macbook Pro will find a number of other wireless networks in the vicinity, but not the one we wish to connect with. However, when the required information about the network is entered into the Network Preferences, it does see the network and will connect with it, until the computer is shut down. When it is powered-up again, the Macbook will not find it, even though, in theory, it had been told to remember it and that network had been moved up to #1 in the order of priority.
The settings on both Macbooks are the same, so why can one find and remember the network and the other not? What can I do about the problem?
Help please!

Settings for wireless network connections are actually stored in two separate places on your Mac, so in addition to the correct advice offered by Jolly Giant, you will also need to delete old network listings in KeyChain Access.
Macintosh HD > Applications > Utilities > KeyChain Access
Locate the name of the wireless network that you want to delete and click it to highlight it
Click Delete on your keyboard
It would be a good idea to go ahead and also delete the current connection as well in case it has become corrupted. This will clear out the old settings and when you next connect to the network and enter the password, the new settings will be preserved.

Macbook pro wont connect to internet using cable, but connects using wifi fine

My macbook pro wont connect to the internet using a cable, but connects using wifi fine. I use wifi at home but sometimes need to use my laptop at work and connect using a cable but it says i'm not connected to the internet?

Can you open a terminal and invoke the following commands:
ping -c 10 localhost
and
ping -c 10 google.com
You should normally get something like:

New macbook pro wont accept password

I moved everything over from my i5 MBP to a new i7 via utilities migration assistant. However the new macbook pro wont accept my password, nor will it recognise the other user account passwords. Works fine on the i5.
In Disc Utilities, change password asks me to select an image, but does not light up "change" when I select user.
Any ideas?

Is you new MBP the 2010 model or is it a newer model running Mountain Lion?
If it's a newer model running ML, you can simply boot into your Recovery partition (hold down the Command and R keys whilst booting) and when you get to the Recovery window, select Terminal from the Utilities menu. In Terminal, type
resetpassword
and hit Return. A small app will open that will allow you to change the password for the user that you select. Then just reboot and use the new password.
If, indeed, you're running 10.6.4, you'll need the installation disc to use the Reset password utility.
Good luck,
Clinton

How do i connect my macbook pro to my tv wirelessly?

I connect my macbook pro to an Epson wireless projector. The macbook can see the projector wirelessly and the image on the macbook is displayed on the projector. However on system ref., the arrangement tab does not show and thus cannot have multiple view.
I am trying to project Pro Presenter on the Epson projector such that I have the detail screen on the macbook and only the screen I want people to see on the projector display. This has not been possible because the arrangement tab on the Display section of the System Preference is not showing. If i tried to search for the arangement, it comes back with the message that there is not other source detected, hence the arrangement tab is not showing.
I have also tried to connect the Epson directly to the Macbook but it still the same result, so its not because it is a wireless connection. Can someone advise me jhow to go around this problem. I have used windows before and it is very easy to extend ptojection on windows, but this system seems to be frustrating to me.
Thanks,
Toks

Hi Toksyb!
You may want to try clearing out the PRAM on your computer. This process is explained through this article:

Macbook pro wont shutdown

macbook pro wont shutdown

Holding the power button for 10+ seconds should shut it down. But that stops all processes, including active read/write activity, mid-step. Yuor system may not restart because the OS (not the disk drive itself) could be corrupted.
Try option-command-esc to bring up a list of application to force-quit, that way only certain applications are forcibly stopped instead og the entire OS.

My macbook pro wont do anything and it is just blowing air out the back

my macbook pro wont do anything it is using its fan rapidly

Try Reseting the PRAM, It should fix the Problem.
Shut down the computer.
Plug in the MagSafe power adapter to a power source, connecting it to the Mac if its not already connected.
On the built-in keyboard, press the (left side) Shift-Control-Option keys and the power button at the same time.
Release all the keys and the power button at the same time.
Press the power button to turn on the computer.
Note: The LED on the MagSafe power adapter may change states or temporarily turn off when you reset the SMC.

Macbook pro wont shut down without holding the power button nor cycle for updates to restart.

macbook pro wont shut down without holding the power button nor cycle for updates to restart

Sorry I said sorta wrong. I can shut down and I can update to the point of restart but it just sat for 45 minutes after an update. It goes through the update and to restart then the bars chase each other in a circle and it never restarts. So I hit the power button and go through normal reboot but loosing the update in the process. It does not matter how long I wait for a natural reboot after an update or click to restart it will chase the little bar in circles all day literally and never reboot.
