My MacBook pro kicks others off the internet

hi guys and gals, can anyone help with this. I just bought a new MacBook pro with retina display. When I open it up and have it on, all my other devices lose their connection to the internet :/. When I close it, it takes a minute but the internet reconnects to the devices

Launch the Activity Monitor application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
Select All Processes from the View menu, if not already selected, and also select the Network tab.
Click the heading of the Sent Bytes column in the process table to sort the entries by bandwidth usage. You may have to click it twice to get the highest value at the top. What is it, and what is the process? Repeat with the Rcvd Bytes column.

  • My macbook pro kicks me off the internet to the home screen randomly, how do i fix this?

    While I am on the internet mostly, my macbook will kick me off the internet to the homescreen. While I am watching a movie or surfing the web without a pattern it will move to the homescreen while the movie still plays for example.

    When you have the problem, note the exact time: hour, minute, second.
    Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
    Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select

    Yes, but the part cut off the bottom of the first page should appear at the top of the second. No content should be lost, just split between pages.
    Safari makes little or no attempt to keep a line of print or a picture from splitting across pages, seemingly just imaging the web page as one large image and printing so many inches or millimeters of the image per page.

  • Something kicks me off the internet

    If I plug the printer (HP Deskjet D2545) into the computer, the computer says there arn't any networks available.  I am on a wireless Comcast  connection.  No problem if I do not connect the printer cable into the USB port.  As soon as I plug in and print anything the computer kicks me off the internet and gives me the no networks available message.  We winter in FLA and we didn't have any problem at all with Bright House (Time Warner).  Left it plugged in the entire 3 months and no problem at all. 

    I have the same problem every once in a while, but when I'm playing xbox online and my wife fires up her notebook, or when someone calls me and I pick up on a curdles 2.4 gig. phone. For a while the problem was the notebook was grabbing the IP address of by xbox, I had my wife turn down the power of her output signal and that helped.

  • Kicking me off the internet

    It keeps kicking me off the internet when i go to secure sites like bank sites or sites with video like youtube. it sayes firefox quit unexpectedly after it relaunched. sorry im new to macs and appreciate any help

    4donuts is right where i am, either firefox or safari does it to me, it sayes that there is something wrong with the flash player plugin. so i deleted adobe completely and redownloaded and installed it and it still does it. when its deleted i can go to youtube or any video site i just cant watch any of the videos, it sayes that i need a flash player so when i download it and install it, as soon as i go to youtube or any site where the flash player is used like myspace or yahoo it locks up for a second and kicks me off and says firefox or safari quit unexpectedly and blames the flash player so ive opted to report it everytime, so im suprised the vp of mac hasnt called me personally for as many times this has happened. i think im gonna have to make an appointment and have it serviced

  • My Macbook Pro 13' from 2011 keeps kicking me off the internet, even though my internet service (complete with brand new router) shows strong bars. Any help?!

    I've had this 13 Inch Macbook Pro complete with the Lion since October 2011. I've been having trouble with the internet connection. I keep getting 'unable to connect to the internet' or 'website unavaiable'. We have a brand new router, so we know for certain the router isn't going out. Both of my parents computers connect just fine without getting kicked out. I thought maybe it was the seat, so I switched chairs and rooms and positions, but that doesn't seem to help. I check my internet connection and always says 'connected' with full bars. I've tried different browswers, using Safari and Google Chrome. It's frustrating not being able to get online and get kicked off in the middle of whatever you're doing for a reason you can't figure out. Any help/suggestions? It's been going on for a month or so now.

    After biting the bullet and ordering more RAM, my computer now is working a ton better. So that must have been the main issue. With 8 GB RAM, I can now even run Parallels fluidly (better than my work PC!) where before simple things like logging in to my MBP after reboot could take forever.
    The place I went to had several other people getting RAM upgrades at the same time as me, so between this and other comments I've seen in discussions here and elsewhere on the Internets, I take it to mean that either Apple should bump up the base RAM on its new machines, and/or stop charging so much for additional RAM.
    I refused to believe a Pro machine bought with Lion installed would come with too little RAM for light to medium usage, but it was apparently the case. I'll mark this as a correct answer and hope some other poor soul will come across this thread and be helped by it.

  • I have a brand new Mac Pro Tower that continually kicks me off the internet and sometimes starts up not connecting to the internet?

    My brand new Mac Pro Tower that I spent a small fortune on sometimes boots up and does not connect to the internet when every other computer in my office does and other times it just kicks me straight off. My question is, is there a problem with the wi fi on these machines?

    Brand new nMP Mac Pro 6,1 Late 2013.... and it is defective - the older silver tower might be easier to find parts but at least it is not 65 lbs and is something that can be taken in - which I think you really need to do.
    When you run etrecheck from www.etresoft.com it can show what is installed, drivers and might help point to something on software side.
    Grant is the go-to person here I think among others for networking issues.
    Airport Express and signal strength, channel it is trying to use, whether the Network control panel settings are "correct" or need to be changed (even the order, what it is trying to look for and use).
    If you move it to another spot or put another computer over in that general vicinity...? behaves the same.
    I recall reading where the MacBook Pro model in 2012? and switched to a new chipset and some very long (huge) threads in their forum - which means also there was no real solution given.
    No, should not be. And other than network tests would be booting into Apple DiagnosticsTest mode - pulls down from Apple servers.

  • Macbook Pro cannot connect to the internet even when others can

    Hi! Please help me. We have an internet WIFI connection in our office but only my MacBook Pro cannot connect even when I entered the correct password. My Iphone and Ipad work just fine. It says "connection timeout" but all other laptops can connect. I tried network diagnostics already and it always say "connection timeout". I dont know what to do anymore.

    Yes, and when I open the Network Utility it shows a working IP address, and a 54Mb/s speed from the wireless router. It even shows the shared computers from my roomates. But when I try to access the internet it does not load anything on Safari or Firefox ( or any other internet application for that matter). It is completely unconnected. YET, As soon as I activate the AirPort card on the top right where I have my signal strength, it shows on the Network Utility information that there are 'packages' being sent and received, and I have NO programs open what so ever, I have closed everything except finder and network utility... Does this mean I am being hacked, or have some sort of Trojan or something in my computer? I ran an antivirus that my school provided, called Virex by McAfee, it came out clean except it says it cannot read one file.
    I tried repairing my disk, and that did not work either. I did the Ram reset like you suggested, but that also did not work. I doubt it being a hardware error. I am going to try to connect it to an ethernet cable to see if that will work. Then I will let you know what happens with that, but that would still not be a solution since I need it wireless, cause the router is in another part of the house.
    Thank you for your help, and I hope we can get this sorted out.

  • Brand new macbook pro freezing when on the internet and won't fix itself

    Three times tonight I have been on the internet and out of nowhere my macbook pro has frozen. I am unable to move the mousepad or click on anything or click out of the applications. I have to power off the computer to make it work again. How can i fix this? I have only had the computer for 5 days and I am confused at how this is happening already.

    Take it back and get a new unit. If they say "We Will Fix it' then Return it for FULL REFUND, you have 14 days from day of purchase to return it No Questions Asked, and then buy another New unit.

  • Why does my macbook pro keep disconnecting from the internet?

    For whatever reason my Macbook pro 15in keeps disconnecting from the internet everytime it goes to sleep. And sometimes when I wake it up, I have to turn wifi on and off a couple times to get it to detect the right signal. This does not happen with my playstation or my phone so it has to be a problem with the Macbook itself. Can anyone give me any information on how to fix this problem? Anything would be greatly appreciated.

    Hello, amal111.
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    Here is an article that I would recommend going through when experiencing Wi-Fi connectivity issues.  Also, make sure all firmware updates have been processed on the router and the settings have been adjusted to the recommended settings in the second article below.

  • MacBook Pro Cannot Connect to the Internet

    My MacBook pro was perfectly active and online, in my linksys router last night before I went to sleep. I left it active as I was downloading some files, they were going awfully slow, but I didnt pay attention and left up. When I woke up today, and tried to use my computer it seemed to be kind of slow and frozen, so I forcefully shut it down and then powered it on. Everything was normal, and my airport card connects to my network, as it is supposed to do. I try to load Safari, Mail and even Firefox, but nothing works. All my other programs seem fine. I started running Virex to see if it detects anything, but I dont know what is happening.
    I have made sure that my network is working, since 3 of my roomates use the same internet from the same router, and they all have internet. Even my iPhone has internet. Everything is working except my MacBook pro.
    So, I tried going to preferences and getting a renewed IP and DHCP server, like I do when the computer is lagging a little bit, it did not work either. I have reset again, by using normal reset setting on Finder. Still no Internet, I have no clue what do or why it's happening, this has never happened before, and I do not think is anything but my computer software.
    I appreciate any help and suggestions. Thank you very much.
