My MacBook Air constantly pairs with my friend's MacBook Pro

Even though we aren't saved devices it constantly connects to each other. When we hit disconnect, it pairs again within a second. There is no way to "forget this device." I really don't want my battery draining while we're constantly synced.  Is there any way to prevent this?

Hi adammilon,
Have you tried booting into safe mode and other steps to isolate the issue?

  • MacBook Air cannot pair with iphone

    Hi,
    Once I've configured my MacBook to use tethering with iphone 3GS via Bluetooth. Suddenly it stopped to work. Then I tried to pair two devices again, but simply I cannot.
    I open Bluetooth assistant which finds my iPhone, click to connect, then code appears both on MacBook and iPhone, click to confirm, wait 10-15 seconds and get the message on iPhone that it cannot pair with MacBook Air, and on MacBook I receive and error. Tried restarting, turning tethering on and off, etc - no effect.
    I thought that maybe there is something wrong with iPhone s/w, but today I checked with brand new iPhone 4 with 4.0.2 SW - result is exactly the same.
    Wireless keyboard and Magic Mouse works on that machine without any problem....
    Any clue?
    Krzysztof

    yes, but it does not refer to iPhone, while problem is clearly related with MacBook - if I could pair another iPhone without problem, then the problem would be within one particular iPhone, wouldn't be?

  • Camera is not working on MacBook Air 6,2 with Bootcamp and Windows 7 Pro 64-bit -- how to fix?

    I have a MacBook Air 6,2 that has been Bootcamp'd with Windows 7 x64 Pro. Everything works find except for the camera, which does not appear to work at all. In the Windows Device Manager it shows the camera as installed with a working driver, but the camera never turns on.
    Any ideas on how to make it work?

    Hi,
    If there is no error after the disk checking, please temporary disable antivirus, update BIOS and device drivers such as hard drive from computer manufacturer’s
    website to check the result.
    If the issue persists, I suggest you boot in Safe Mode, and clear the temp folder. Delete every files that can be deleted.
    C:\Users\%username%\AppData\Local\Temp
    In addition, the following threads would be helpful as well.

    macbook air: i dont want my friend to hear what i am hearing on the computer while calling.
    i have newest version macbook air with Lion.
    and while calling someone via skype, i dont want them to hear what im hearing on the computer such as Itunes, youtube, or whatever comes out of speaker.
    samething happends when im using headphones.
    i wanna listen to the music or watch youtube video during the call,
    but it is almost impossible b/c my gf can hear the sound coming off the computer much louder than my actual voice.
    this is not fun.

    You are not going to be able to run your old system from the backup on this old computer as the hardware is incompatible.
    You need to get a new computer or a refurbished one.

  • HT4410 I have just installed Windows 7 64-bit full version Home Premium using Bootcamp and cannot get access to the internet. I installed on a Macbook Air Mid 2012 with Mountain Lion. Are there some drivers that are missing from the Windows 7

    Dear Apple. I have just installed Windows 7 64-bit full version Home Premium using Bootcamp and cannot get access to the internet. I installed on a Macbook Air Mid 2012 with Mountain Lion. Are there some drivers that are missing from the Windows 7 bootcamp install download from Apple

    It is a Total Misconception that the Support files are installed when you are installing Windows, even if the USB drive that holds them is inserted in the system when doing the Windows install.
    You must always Run the Setup.exe files from the support files or run the drivers individually once Windows has finished installing and booted to the desktop.
    Also you really need to run the Boot Camp Control Panel Applet and check for updates as not all the newest drivers for full function of all the hardware is included with the original support download. That download is basically a generic version to get the system working and without doing the updates not everything will work properly.

  • Can a 128 ssd storage still effectively work if I install windows 8.1 plus msoffice and a window-based proposal system? I plan to buy a macbook air entry level with 1.7 gh i5 processor.

    Can a 128 ssd storage still effectively work if I install windows 8.1 plus msoffice and a window-based proposal system? I plan to buy a macbook air entry level with 1.7 gh i5 processor.

    If you are going to use Mac OS X and its associated applications, and a BootCamp partition with Windows 8, and MS Office and all of the work created there, you will more than likely run out of space on a 128 GB SSD pretty quickly...especially if you put any music, photos or videos on it.  Those things take a lot of space so you will have to be very, very careful about what you want to put on a 128 GB storage space.  You would be better off going for 512 GB with what you plan on doing with it.

  • Configure macbook air to work with projector

    Do I need to configure my new MacBook Air to work with a digital projector or should it work automatically without any setting up other than connection to the projector?

    If you have a Lightning to whatever input that the projector has more than likely HDMI, VGA, or DVi you should be able to to hook the projector up with no problem. You can find a number of different displayPort outputs in the apple store or other electronic online/stores. Once connected to the projector you can choose to have the the additional desktop displayed or you can enable Airplay Mirroring in the Displays section under System Preferences. You can also close your Air and use a bluetooth mouse and keyboard and completely operate through the projector screen.

    I have a 2 year old Air with 1.8 GHz i5 4 GB that is more than adequate and extremely fast for the uses you describe.
    Is battery life a factor in your decision? If so, knowing that may help someone else give you some more input.

  • Can the apple external disc drive that I just got for my air also work with my late 2007 macbook pro?  The internal disc drive broke after apple care expired, natch.

    Can the apple external disc drive that I just got for my air also work with my late 2007 macbook pro?  The internal disc drive broke after apple care expired, natch.

    No, sorry. it won't work with the 2007 MBP. You can replace the optical drive yourself - just go shopping at OWC.
    Good luck,

  • My Macbook Air behaves strangely with my USB devices.

    Hello! My Macbook Air behaves strangely with my USB devices. They appear in the Finder but the icon then quickly disappears, as if the device has never been connected. Sometimes the devices work fine, however. Could you please help me identify the problem?

    USB draws power from the MBA, and MBA will shut them down if too much is taken.  Try a self-powered (not USB-powered) hub, to see if the AIr acts better.  Costs about $25 at BestBuy.
    May not tbe the final solution, but no a bad idea anyway.

    I have a Macbook Air (july 2012) with OS X 10.8.3  installed.  I have dvds with .vob files and have Quicktime Version 10.2 (603.12).  I can't play the DVDs.  There are some features of QT that I like, e.g. precise frame selection and save as .png file-help.  Am I missing some Apple software?  I thought QT for Mountain Lion could convert the .vob files - is there some setting that I have missed?
    Any suggestions that preserves a simple workflow much appreciated.

  • Hi. I am going to be buying a macbook air 2012 soon with 4 GB of RAM and wondering how much memory space does norton AV take up and does it drastically slow down the mac. Thanks a lot :)

    Hi
    I am going to be buying a macbook air 2012 model with 4 GB ram soon. I was wondering how much space (memory) does Norton AV take up and does it drastically slow down the computer. Also, I am going off to uni so will predominantly be using the laptop for surfing and MS office.
    Thanks a lot

    Sorry to disagree mende1.  In this age of email attachments and social networks, it is actually a good idea to have a good antivirus on your system. {I realize that this is a religious argument and I will say no more}.  With that said, the general concensus is that Norton AV is terrible. It is intrusive and uses up a lot of cycles.
    There are a lot of better AV clients out there.  I use ClamXav which is free and uses the clamav antivirus that is open source. 

  • Macbook air superdrive compatible with macbook pro

    i have the macbook pro laptop.  is the macbook air superdrive compatible with this?  iam using a external drive atm but it was not an apple product.  my computer has been upgraded this is the reason for the external drive.  can anyone advise?
    thanx Tracy Ann

    Actually there is nothing different from the Apple Super drive to any other DVD drive made for notebook computers.
    Any external DVD drive will work with a Macbook Pro.
