MiFi 4510L and Macbook Pro Retina

Hello,
Anyone get a new Retina MBP working with the 4510 MiFI unit?
This same MiFi works flawlessly with my other Macbook Pro (2009) but with the new Retina MBP I get a connection but no browing/internet access.
The password has been confirmed via review in the Keychain and any other WiFi networks I connect to work without issue.
Searched online and can not find others with a similar issue.
Any ideas on how it can connect to other networks but this one MiFi fails while the same MiFi network can be accessed via a different model MacBook Pro laptop???
Regards,
Steve

Steve,
What you are describing here is either a password problem or a incompatibility issue between your device and the default settings of the MiFi 4510L.
The first thing I would do is re-enter the WiFi password on your MacBook.  Since I'm not a Mac guy I wont be able to tell you the steps necessary to accomplish that goal, but I'd bet you can figure it out.
If you can confirm that the WiFi password is getting entered correctly then the next step would be tweaking the MiFi.  I'd suggest changing either the WiFi password to WPA or change the 802.11 wireless mode to B+G.
Remove/Change the WiFi password
Navigate to http://mifi.admin
Enter "admin" in the textbox in the upper right hand corner
Click the WiFi tab
Change the security of the device:
Change Selected Profile to Open Access
Change the Security from WPA2 to WPA or WEP
Update your WiFi password if necessary
Click Apply
Test your connection
Change the 802.11/Wireless Mode
Sign into your MiFi
Click the Wi-Fi tab
Change the 802.11 mode from B+G+N to B+G
Click Apply
Test your connection

  • How do I activate continuity calls on my macbook pro? I have an iPhone 6 and Macbook Pro Retina Mid 2014 and I live in Dubai

    I have an iPhone 6 and Macbook Pro Retina Mid 2014 and I live in Dubai, I bought my macbook from Canada and iPhone from UAE so it doesn't have FaceTime but i should be able to get calls on my mac right?

    If you set your imessage off on your phone it will only turn it off on your phone i think I don't think it effects your mac. I'm not 100% sure on this though.
    If you want to remove imessages from your mac  -  Open iMessage, go to Messages top left, and then select Preferences. Select "Accounts" and then simply "Sign out" That should do it.

  • Connection iMac and macbook pro retina

    I am newbie to mac and apple computers. I just bought the mac book pro retina display. My lab owns an iMac which I have no idea what the model is (probably before mid 2011). I am trying to use my iMac as an external display from my macbook pro retina. Do you think it would work with mini display cable or thunderbolt cable. I am trying to avoid paying for thunderbolt cable as they are so much more expensive than mini display port. Thanks

    Although Target Display Mode was offered on some previous iMacs, I understand that it is not available on the Retina 5K (supposedly because the current DisplayPort standard doesn't support a high enough refresh rate to drive a 5K display).

  • 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
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1153
    If it still doesn't work, then I would next use this article to remove the device:
    Bluetooth: How to Delete a Paired Device
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TA27116
    Then restart your computer and pair it again:

  • WRT1900AC and Macbook Pro Retina - refuses to connect with Wireless N

    I have the first generation Macbook Pro Retina, and just recently upgraded my D-Link D-655 for the Linksys WRT1900AC.  I also put the router on the first floor (the D-Link was in the basement) because there were some huge holes in wireless coverage I hoped to fix.
    To my dismay, the thing will not negotiate a connection with ANY wireless N device as wireless N.  When I set it to wireless-N only on 5 GHz, nothing will connect to it, and same with 2.4 GHz.  My macbook's system report shows the network as being Wireless G on the 2.4 band and wireless A on the 5 GHz.
    I have 50 MBPs internet here, and when I plug directly into the router, I get that.  However, I am maxing out at 20 MBPs over wireless with both my macbook and my Samsung Galaxy S4.
    I'm about at wits end, my next step is to return this thing.  I have been on hold with support for 20 minutes, which is freakin eerie because they have no hold music or talking so it's just dead silent.
    This morning I spent an hour on a live chat with support, and nothing she had me do made it better, and in fact any changes made it drop from 20-21 MBPs down to 16-17 maximum.
    On her advice, I re-installed the firmware, downloading from online, and this had absolutely no effect.  Any other ideas to try?  I get these crappy connection speeds sitting 3 feet away from it.  I live in a house, so no massive interference from neighbors (only 2 other wifi networks are visible)
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    let me be clear here: I had the same slow speed with both my mac and my galaxy s4, it is not a mac problem.  I had disabled media prioritization and the WMM thing in the settings for media prioritization.  Yes I am sure I am connecting to the right SSID.  The old router is DIR-655.  Part of the reason I wanted to upgrade is it disconnected my galaxy s4 every 2 minutes (and many people have had that problem, a quick google search verified that the router just doesn't like galaxy s4).  OS X 10.7.5 but as I said my Galaxy has the same issue - it does not connect as wireless N, and when I make the router Wireless N only, not one of the computers in the house can connect to it.  That includes a Mac Mini, Galaxy S4, Macbook Air, Macbook Pro Retina, and a Chromecast (which only works on the 2.4 band, but same issue there).

  • Adobe CS5 and Macbook Pro Retina Display

    I recently bought a new Macbook Pro Retina Display notebook. Before I got it, I didn't realize what an effect it would have on my existing programs, and had I known, I would have thought twice before switching. I have never had so many problems with a brand new computer. It seems absurd to me that Apple would introduce a product that was not supported by so many important software platforms, Adobe Creative Suite and Acrobat Pro included. 
    I have Adobe CS5 and was not planning on upgrading to CS6. It is too expensive and I am a poor PhD student with lots of work to finish. Now when I use my CS5 applications, I see the images in very poor quality. The program will not let me change the "Open in Low Resolution" settings as the button is disabled. I do not know how to make it look better or what to do. I cannot work using this low resolution. It hurts my eyes and I cannot see the lines properly to be able to adjust my drawings.
    What can I do?

    Hi Rossco,
    You're right, the program works and the content produced is unaffected. My rationale to get the program work environment to be Retina compatible includes;
    Visual clarity. For reading glasses wearers such as myself, the blockyness can be frustrating. But regardless of middle aged disability, it just looks better when a program is Retina compatible.
    It's a major component of my work environment, so making the most of the computer's assets is important to me.
    It (OK, this is the emotional statement Rossco ;-)) frustrates me that an Educational program fails to take advantage of a computer type very commonly used in Ed departments. And Retina is not new, nor a passing fad.
    Adobe do commit to Retina compatibility, evidenced by Acrobat updated recently. Captivate please!!??
    Best regards
    Nick

  • Bluetooth cannot pair samsung s6 and macbook pro retina

    Hi all,
    I'm trying to pair my new samsung S6 to my 2013 macbook pro retina running yosemite.  I have gone to "bluetooth preferences" and I can hit pair and the S6 receives the code to verify and it connects, but then immediately disconnects and goes to a not connected status on the MBPro.  I keep receiving a "network is unavailable" message on the MBPro when I go to try again to connect it.
    For troubleshooting, I have enabled file and bluetooth sharing in system pref's.  I have re-started both devices.  I have re-started bluetooth on both devices without a total restart.  I have enabled media share on the S6 just in case it was that.
    On the S6 under the bluetooth menu, it is saying it is paired up with my MBPro.  On the MBPro however, it is showing a "not connected" status.
    I would love to transfer photos and video from the S6 to my MBPro via the bluetooth connection.  Any help would be appreciated.
    Thank you,
    Chris

    I have the exact same issue.  Furthermore, the problem extends to creating a wifi hotspot on my s6.   May yosemite macbook will not recognize the network that was just created. 

  • Two months Macbook Pro 13 and Macbook Pro Retina 13

    If I have bought a 13" Macbook Pro and after one month it comes out the Macbook Pro Retina 13 I couldn't return to have the new one, but shouldn't Apple substitute (after me paying the difference) for the new model?
    Is it ethical that the company present as "new" an upgrade of Macbook Pro and then in less than two month announce a groundbreaking new product?

    You bought a computer based on your needs. Technology always advances so regardless what you bought it won't be long before a newer model is available.

  • FCP 7.0.3 and MacBook Pro Retina Display

    I am a videographer, I shoot on DSLR and edit with FCP 7.0.3.
    I have recently got a brand new Pro Retina Display Macbook Pro.
    I installed my software, including - FCP7 via migration - I had to do this as there is no DVD drive in the macbook pro - it was installed - from my old Mac Book (black 2008)
    FCP 7.0.3 is not opening? It gets to the loading page and goes as far as the top tool bar showing up - but will not open so that I can actually use it.
    I got this mac to edit on the fly and take my jobs away with me and do not want to use Final Cut X - I am used to and very happy with FCP 7 interface and operating and don't have the time to learn to use other editing software - does anyone know how I can get the my FCP 7 software working on my brand new machine?

  • Wifi Problem iPhone 3Gs AND MAcBook Pro Retina 13" 2014

    Hey everyone,
    I recently started to experience a problem with my wifi connection with both my apple devices (an old iPhone 3 Gs and a new Macbook Pro Retina 13''). Both are on the newest (availbe in case of the iPhone) Os X. Let me describe the circumstances:
    I live in a house with 7 other students and the wifi router was quite far away, therefore I installed an ethernet connection with my laptop and tried to get used to a bad wifi signal on my iPhone. Well, at some point I was sick of that and installed an old router I found (Sweex LW050v2). For a time everything was working smoothly until other people in this house though they need another router on our floor and installed one (Sitecom0E5C02). As soon as they did that I started to have troubles on my iPhone and the Macbook as well (when I tried to use the wifi instead of the cable). The issue is not that I loose the wifi connection, but that I can not connect to the internet even though I have a connection to our wifi (I tried with all 3). In the beginning I though this was an issue with our router-setup (you can probably tell I am no expert) but at some point realised that I am the only one with a problem. Since then I have to disconnect from the wifi and connect again every time I loose the internet, which is now almost every 2 minutes!! Thus, my frustration and now me posting here with hopes of receiving help.
    I would much appreciate help or constructive suggestions.
    Thank you

  • Adobe Illustrator CC and macbook pro retina

    So I bought a new macbook pro with retina which has 8GB of memory, with OS X 10.9.4.  I am also trialing the creative cloud having downloaded Adobe Illustrator CC and Photoshop.
    Have only had the laptop for a couple of weeks and already I am having illustrator crashing within 15 or 20 minutes of building a graphic.  It got worse today, and the graphics are not even complicated; 3 times crashed today.  Does anyone else have this problem.  Does anyone know if this is just a compatibility issue between adobe and the macbook?  I was told by apple that as the laptop version had only just come out this might be the issue and adobe would have an update within a month or so.  Anyone know if thats true??
    By the way a friend of mine has been using adobe muse and that has also been crashing on his macbook pro, exactly same macbook pro as mine.
    Any help would be much appreciated

  • No DVD's and MacBook Pro Retina

    Please forgive me, but my brain is mush and I'm not thinking practically.  I bought a 13.5 " MacBook Pro with retina display last weekend to take advantage of our sales tax free weekend.  The sales guy mentioned in passing that "you realize these retina models don't come with a DVD drive, don't you?"  That one went right past me.  Now I'm at home wondering how I'm going to load the printer software or Microsoft Office or Photo Elements, all of which are on DVDs on my office shelf.  Before I run out and buy an external Superdrive, can someone please reassure me that there's a way to get this software and data over to my new computer?  I'd be eternally grateful :).

    Here's another possibility.
    Assuming you still have the iMac, you can "borrow" its optical drive using the Remote Disk facility. (This only works for data disks, not audio CDs.)
    On the iMac:
    System Preferences > Sharing > check "DVD or CD Sharing"
    (Unlock the panel first if it is locked. Check or uncheck the option about asking first; your choice.)
    Insert the DVD you want to use.
    On the MBP-R:
    Open a new Finder window (or reuse one already open).
    Under "DEVICES" in the sidebar, select Remote DIsk.
    Click the name of your iMac.
    Click "Ask to use..." if you enabled that option.
    Click on the name of the DVD, which is now a mounted volume on your MBP-R.

  • What's the difference between the regular Macbook Pro and Macbook Pro Retina?

    I don't know which one to buy ..

    It depends on what you are doing with your MacBook Pro. If you are doing video or picture editing, I would suggest going with the Retina Display. It's faster, has a clearer resolution, a Solid State Hard Drive, a HDMI Port (But if you have Mountain Lion and an Apple TV, you can just use AirPlay Mirroring), but it doesn't have a disk drive. If you need one, you can always buy one and hook it up via USB. The regular MacBook Pro is still a great product, but it doesn't have as good of a screen quality, is still your classic revolving hard drive, doesn't have a HDMI port, and has a disk drive. And there's the price difference as well, The MacBook Pro with Retina Display starts at $1,499.00, and the regular MacBook Pro starts at $1,199.00.

  • Do Mac Mini and Macbook Pro Retina use the exact same i7 processor?

    If not why do I get the exact same info from both computers:
    Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-3615QM CPU @ 2.30GHz
    Processor Speed: 2.3 GHz
    Number of Processors: 1
    Total Number of Cores: 4
    L2 Cache (per Core): 256 KB
    L3 Cache: 6 MB
    Isn't it strange that they are using a mobile CPU in a desktop computer?

    One way to tel is the the specs for the laptop
    http://www.apple.com/macbook-pro/specs-retina/
    Says it has
    Intel Iris Graphics
    While the specs for the Mac Mini
    http://support.apple.com/kb/SP659
    Say it has
    Intel HD Graphics 4000
    The graphis for both are integrated with the CPU chip
    Also, the wifi's for the Mini and laptops provide more detail inof
