Macbook will not get wifi signal when docked into hedge dock station

My Macbook will not get a wifi signal, whenever docked into the Hedge Dock Station. It will however, get the signal when out of the station. It worked for months before.

Wi-Fi is not Bluetooth. If you are using the phone as a Wi-Fi hotspot, then you connect to it using Wi-Fi, not Bluetooth. There's no Bluetooth pairing involved.
Turn on the Wi-Fi hotspot feature on your phone.
On the Mac, open System Preferences and click on the Network icon.
Select "Airport" in the left pane and then click the "Turn AirPort On" button.
Select the name of your phone in the drop-down next to "Network Name".
Provide the password you setup for the network on your phone.
It's nice to have the ability to turn the Wi-Fi on and off in the menu bar rather than have to open System Preferences each time. You can click the checkbox next to "Show AirPort status in menu bar" in the Network pane to do just that.

    If you mean the hexidecimal equivalent of the alphanumeric password, then you can find this via the AirPort Utility, as follows:
    AirPort Utility > Select the AirPort > Manual Setup
    On the AirPort Utility's menubar select Base Station > Equivalent Network Password

  • Yosemite macbook will not get on wifi

    I have a 2011 MacBook that is running Yosemite that will not get on wifi.  I have over 100 MacBooks, 2007 to 2014 that are running on my school's network, but I have one teacher computer that just recently quit accessing the wireless.  I have tried zapping the PRAM, I have gone into the Keychain Access and removed passwords, I have opened in Safemode, I have turned wifi off and then back on, and I have tried a few other things that I can't remember.  The curious part is that it will let me on other networks, it appears to be the school network that I am denied.  Any suggestions?
    Thanks

    If that doesn't work, check instructions carefully and repeat if necessary, see about taking the computer to an Apple Store and try to call ahead for Genius appointment; or contact an authorized reseller with product specialists and service.
    Some users ventured into their out-of-warranty macbooks to check the actual cables going from the battery compartment to the logic board, apparently some batteries unplug. Others you can't get into.
    I see following post/link says several things, can't vouch for any except ^ the SMC reset support page above: https://discussions.apple.com/message/23996241#23996241 - Also, check the right side in this recent thread for links to similar topics.

    With FW TDM, the failed computer can sometimes be powered up holding the T-key down, and a firewire icon would appear on the screen; then one could go about attaching or using a FW cable of correct type and connect it to another capable computer, then the failed computer's HDD would appear as an external drive. In the past, it was possible to clone or copy a drive from a computer that won't boot to another hard disk drive. Or at least copy stuff of that does not require the system to function along with the saved files.

  • Illustrator CC will not get past 95% when downloading

    I'm downloading Illustrator CC from the Adobe Application Manager and it will not complete the download, it gets to 95% and has not moved for hours - any ideas??

    Sma1234 if it is getting stuck at 95% percent then it is likely the installation is running into an error.  I would recommend reviewing the installation log files for Illustrator and any applicable updates.  You can find details on how to locate and interpret the installation log files at Troubleshoot install issues with log files | CC - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/troubleshoot-install-logs-cc.html.  You are welcome to post any specific errors you discover to this discussion.

  • IPhone will not charge or connect when plugged into my Mac

    The past few weeks I have had a major issue with my iPhone. When I plug it into my Macbook via the USB port it will neither connect to my iTunes or connect. However, when I put it into a iPod speaker system that I have, it charges. I thought maybe it was a bad wire so I got out my spare one and still no luck. My iPod will connect and charge on my Macbook when it is plugged in with the same chords. The speaker system has a port for the USB connector to plug into and I tried that. Once again, the iPod will connect to my Mac, but my iPhone will not. I don't know what to do so that I can sync my iPhone to my Macbook. Can anyone help?

  • HT4623 I have iPhone 4S.   I am not getting wifi.  Upper left corner shows all bars but also 3G  not wifi icon

    I have iPhone 4S not getting wifi signal ever.  Even though I'm showing all bars

    If it shows 3g icon means you have not connected to wifi. Go into settings > wifi and tap on your home wifi/wifi network that you are wanting to connect to. Put in the password if that network requires one and then you will have a wifi symbol instead of 3g.

  • Macbook will not sleep automatically

    Hi
    I've recently noticed that my Macbook will not sleep automatically, even when the power management is set to sleep at minimum (1 minute).
    It will sleep if I do it via the menu, however if I walk away from the machine with the lid up, it just won't go to sleep.
    I've tried switching everything off that could possibly be running in the background, tried from a new user account and also tried a power management and zapped the P Ram.
    Up until a few weeks ago it's been running fine, don't know what's happened since, any help would be appreciated.
    Thank you
    Kiran

    Thanks, i've pasted below some of the text that was shown in 'Console', the last line was repeated several times so i've only copied it once.
    I have no idea what this means, except there is some sort of error, how would you suggest I proceed.

    Hi can anyone help me, my daughters macbook will not pick up the wireless signal in her bedroom when me and my wifes iphone picks it up easy. any ideas to help please.Andy

    P.S i;ve heard a comment about the G5 case not being
    great for wireless so the cards come with a plastic
    antena that connects to the back of the machine - i
    never recieved one of these - could that be the
    problem?
    Newer G5 PowerMacs don't require the external t-shaped aerial, earlier models do and that is probably the cause of the problem.

  • MacBook will not launch Dock

    Apple have thrown money in the Blu-Ray camp. And with the success of Blu-Ray in the "format wars", Blu-ray on Mac is inevitable. The real question is when.

    Your battery has reached the end of its life. If you have a MacBook with the removable battery you can get a new third party battery fairly cheap on eBay.

  • I am trying to hook my macbook pro to a sony bravia TV via DVI to HDMI cable and the TV will not recognize the signal. The same set up has worked with three other, though different televisions. Any thoughts?

    I am trying to hook my MacBook Pro to a Sony Bravia TV via DVI to HDMI cable and the TV will not recognize the signal. I have used the same setup with three other TV's, each a different brand with no problem. Any ideas?

    Is the TV set to take input from the HDMI connection?
    On your computer, if you open the Displays preferences and do not see an Arrangement tab (or there is an Arrangement tab that shows only a single monitor) then there is something physically wrong with your connection.  Try clicking Detect Displays just to see if the computer can now sense the presence of the connection.  Check your connections.
    If you do have an Arrangement tab, and it shows two screens, then click Gather Windows to bring the TV's Displays preferences on to your main screen if the TV is not yet showing an image.  Set the proper resolution (probably 720p, 1080i, or 1080p).  Set the refresh rate (probably 60Hz) if that preference is shown.  You should see a picture at this point.  I  recommend turning off mirrored displays if it is enabled.
