Just plugged in Time Capsule and one MacBook Pro works fine on WiFi while the other MacBook Pro and iPad 3 keep disconnecting. Any ideas?

Additionally, the wifi icon at the top of the screen has an exclamation mark on the MacBook Pro that doesn't connect. We've tried restarting the machine, the Time Capsule but nothing has helped.

Just called Apple Support and it turns out we had the settings wrong. We're all set now!

My macbook pro cannot find any wifi networks unless it is in the same room as the router.

whats wrong with it and how can i fix this?

Here is some info from the Apple data base
Wi-Fi: How to troubleshoot Wi-Fi connectivity

Also is there metal near/around the router, tht can cause issues with radio waves, you may want to try a different location for the router.

My MacBook Pro will connect to WiFi but will not work in one location but will at others. I have the same issue with my IPhone 4S at the same location.

My MacBook Pro will connect to Wifi at one location (this is a secure location) but will not allow access to the internet. I will put in the password but will not display page. Other wifi capable devises do not have this issue but my Mac and my Iphone 4S will not work. I have tried restarting the router. All other wifi locations I have been to have not had this issue. Any suggestions? I am realtively new to Apple products (less than a year) so any advise is greatly appreciated.

The other devices that are working got on with the same password. It says it is connected. Just nothing works on the internet.

Can the MacBook Air work with any other type of internet connection beside wifi?

Can the MacBook Air work with any other kind of internet connection besides Wifi?

Who? ITS VERY important when doing a restore, in fact you DO NOT want to do a wifi restore
The pros all have that Ethernet adapter,... that should tell you something. An Ethernet restore via that "thing" makes restoring the OSX about 8X faster.
Its called a Gigabit Ethernet adapter for a reason.
"who the heck" is anyone working with their Macbook Air at home and want a MUCH FASTER download / internet connection.
*Stockbrokers who pack their Macbook Air, arrive at work and plug that "hardwired" dongle to their Air........ because even seconds in the stock market can make the difference between losing a million $$, or making a million $$
So now you know WHY,.....before you didnt.

Any reason why my MacBook Pro keeps dropping the WiFi signal - will be fine for ages and then just drops it!, Any reason why my MacBook Pro keeps dropping the WiFi signal - will be fine for ages and then just drops it!

For your issue - Solution may be found if you search in the "More Like This" section over in the right column.
Change your router channel. Sometimes this is all you will have to do.
Power cycling the router. Read the router's user manual or contact their tech support for instructions.

When I switch my time capsule to 5.0ghz mode the range of my wireless network drops significantly. Near the Time Capsule my Macbook Pro works fine, in my bedroom I have almost no signal. In mixed mode it works fine. Any ideas on how to get 5.0 working?

Thanks, W

I'm not sure if you understand that 5 GHz has some upsides, but also some very significant downsides.
The upside is that the 5 GHz signal will allow faster speeds.
The downside is that you must always give up something in order to gain something else.Unfortunately, the marketing hype about 5 GHz does not go into very many details about this.
In the case of 5 GHz, the 5 GHz signals are much weaker than 2.4 GHz signals, so they do not travel as far or penetrate any obstructions like walls or ceilings nearly as well as 2.4 GHz signals. In many cases, in order to get good 5 Ghz performance, you literally have to have almost a line-of-sight relationship between your computer and the wireless router.
If you have a new dual band router, which broadcasts both a 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz signal simutaneously, your Mac will connect to the best signal quality automatically depending on its location in relation to the router. In the same room, without any obstructions, it will connec to 5 GHz. But, take the laptop down the hall a few rooms and around the corner and the Mac will connect to the 2.4 GHz signal because at that location, the 2.4 GHz signal is not only stronger, it is also faster.

Make a Genius Appointment at the Apple Store, take your laptop in and get them to help you upgrade it.

New Retina MacBook Pro does not find WiFi after booting

My Retina MacBook Pro keeps looking for WiFis after it has booted, but does not find any.
I have to explicitly turn WiFi off and on again after booting to get it working.
When I put the MacBook to sleep and wake it, the problem does not occur.
Any hints what could be the problem?

Not sure if this will help, but you can go into System Preferences > Network and, if you haven't already, create a new location (mine is called "home"), then from this location remove all connection methods from the left column except Wi-Fi. Also, click on "Advanced" and remove anything from the Preferred Networks list that you aren't using. Then click on "OK" and "Apply".

Time Machine - MacBook Pro works, MacBook doesn't

Last night, in the middle of a Time Machine backup to our 500 GB Time Capsule, my wife's MacBook said the backup failed.
Today, I tried a manual backup by saying "Back up now" in the menu bar, and the thing hung at "Preparing". So I restarted the MacBook and tried again.
This time, the backup got past "Preparing", but got as far as "74MB of 74MB" before hanging. Using Get Info on the disk image on the Time Capsule showed that there were no longer any writes being made to the Time Capsule, but Activity Monitor showed that the MacBook was still acting as though it was sending packets to the Time Capsule.
Restarted the MacBook, tried again. This time, the fans spun up to maximum on the MacBook, and the backup still didn't complete.
I trashed the Time Machine preferences in Library/Preferences, restarted the MacBook again, and behold, the backup to the Time Capsule finally completed.
Now the MacBook has an entirely different problem - Time Machine takes upwards of 20 minutes to launch, if it will launch at all, and the MacBook's fans spin like crazy while trying to launch it. The Finder just says "Connecting to backup volume". I've checked Console to see if it has any helpful information, but it doesn't tell me anything.
I've also tried restarting the Time Capsule itself, and that did nothing.
My MacBook Pro works just fine with the Time Capsule, and Time Machine launches with barely a hiccup. My wife's MacBook simply does not want to play nice, though, and I'm out of ideas.

Getting the same issues on an iMac with a 1TB Time Capsule. All working OK for a month or so, then it hung at "Preparing" and I just get "connecting to backup volume" when trying to open Time Machine. Cannot get to backup or allow me to enter Time Machine at all.
Furthermore, I have an extended network with an Airport Express which has also gone down, although the Time Capsule is still working effectively as a wireless router itself.
Tried restarting both Time Capsule and iMac with no success.
Didn't try trashing preferences in Library/Preferences yet...
Any advice would be much appreciated.

My macbook pro is connected to wifi but it will not connect to the internet.

My macbook pro is connected to wifi but it will not connect to the internet. When I go on safari, it says that "Safari can't verify the identity of the website". Then I tried to update flashplayer but you need the internet to update it. All this only started happening after that Moutain Lion software was downloaded onto the laptop. Please help, I have been internet-less for a couple months now.

Hi rynhelp,
If you are not able to connect to the internet after installing Mountain Lion, see this article for information on how to start troubleshooting:

You may find additional troubleshooting information in this article useful:

It is written for Lion but works for Mountain Lion as well.

My Macbook Pro always ejects any CDs, DVDs that I insert. How do I remedy this?

My Macbook Pro always ejects any CDs, DVDs that I insert. How do I remedy this?

Before taking it for repair, try a drive cleaning disk. They are US$5-15 at most computer, electronics, and office supply stores. Slot-loading drives get dirty and the inexpensive cleaning disk is the logical step before spending a lot of mony.
Case in point: A friend has an older MacBook Pro and its optical drive had not worked in years. When he took the computer to an AASP for servicing another issue, he asked about replacing the optical drive. The Service Provider said it woul cost US$140 paarts + labor to install a new one--something my friend could not afford at the time.
I loaned my friend my drive cleaning disk and now his original drive works like it did when new.

I purchased adobe photoshop elements 12 and cannot open organizer on my macbook pro 7.1 Any suggest

i purchased adobe photoshop elements 12 and cannot open organizer on my macbook pro 7.1 Any suggestions?

After I successfully install the adobe photoshop elements 12 for mac, I try to open organizer and a window pops up that says
"Adobe Elements 12 Organizer cannot be opened because of a problem. Check with the developer to make sure Adobe Elements 12 Organizer works with this version of Mac OSX. You may need to reinstall the application. Be sure to install any available updates for the application and Mac OSX. Click report to see more detailed information and send a report to Apple."
I have checked for any updates on my Mac and it is up to date.
I have tried reloading and am still getting the same result.
I can open Editor, but not Organizer.
I am running Mac OSX version 10.6.2.4 Ghz Intel Core 2 Duo Processor with 4 GB memory, all standard stuff that came in the computer and I have no security software running when I do this.
Any idea why it is not working?
Thanks, Victor

Macbook Pro 10.7.5 Wifi connection dropping

For the past few weeks I have been encountering a problem with my macbook pro connecting to the wifi. Every so often my mac will "disconnect" from the wifi, however my mac will still show a full connection. In order to solve it this I can disconnect from the wifi and then reconnect and I will be able to use the internet again without an issue. But within 20 minutes the problem will come back again. I have tried resetting my computers wifi preferences, I have switched the channel my router is using, I have even switched the router from 2.4ghz to 5ghz to no avail. I have seen where other people have been having the same issue as me but so far I have not seen anybody offer up a solution that works. Does anybody know what is causing this or how to fix it?

We are still having issues with this, is there anybody out there who has a solution or has encountered the same problem?
