New MBP Retina wifi is awful - even with bluetooth off! But works fine when using Ubuntu 13.04

Hello - I've recently as of last week - purchased a new Macbook Pro Retina.
I've dual booted it with Ubuntu 13.04.
The wifi is terrible when logged into the OSX.  However, works fine in Ubuntu! I've tried turning bluetooth off as suggested in many forums, but to no avail.
Any idea - my first Mac too, so I'm trying hard not to give up and just return it for something else!
Thanks

Was the OS X wifi terrible before or after you installed Linux?
Linux is not a Apple approved operating system for running on Mac's.
The open source community has a different philosphy than commerical companies like Apple or Microsoft, it might be that your OS X wifi drivers was surplanted with those from Linux and thus OS X can't recognize them and defaulted to a more basic mode of a slower speed.
Apple doesn't provide drivers publically for Mac's, so it's some third party hacker, with quesitonable skills and non-communication with Apple, that's providing the drivers. So there is a problem there, which I've found out about myself when installing Linux on older Mac's.
I advise Linux and other non-approved operating systems to be run in a virtual machine program instead.
Install Windows or Linux into VirtualBox
Unfortuntly to fix your system and uninstall Linux, which is designed to be installed on generic PC's, is to erase your ENTIRE boot drive, including the hidden EFI parititon where Linux installs it's swap file.
I suggest you take your machine into Apple and tell them what you did.

    My iphone 4 speakers stopped giving me sounds when i play audio or video even while gaming. It works fine when ringing tunes of for voice mails, even works fine with headsets. What is wrong with it?

    well i'd seriosly say point a hot hair drier at the speakers as water has entered the phone most commonly via the home button but avoid getting it too hot let it cool every 3 minutes after constant drying. Don't worry I have honestly dont this with my iPhone 4 GSM 16GB. For future reference avoid letting it get wet.

  • My iphone5 wont charge with usb port but works fine with wall plug... Infact computer. Doesn't recognizes the iphone

    Battery not charging with usb port but works fine with wall plug.. So the prob is computer is not detecting the iphone5 . This problem started after upgrading to 6.1.3 version

    Try to see what happens on another computer. If it works on another computer, the issue is not at the iPhone.

  • HP ProBook 5220m Fan not working with battery power but work fine with adapter plugged in

    Hi,
    Any one have this issue?
    HP ProBook 5220m (Bios Version F50) Fan not working with battery power but work fine with adapter plugged in.
    This issue was found in my replacement motherboard. the original mother do not have this issue.
    The origianl mother to be replace is due to can't power on after a power failure recovery. I believe was due to power surge killed the motherboard's power controller circuitry.
    Appreciate any one can provide clue for resolving the problem.
    I have tried to install speedfan to try my luck, but it can't any fan in the application to configure. (Bios Version F50)

  • Hdmi sound works with TV, not receiver (works fine in windows/ubuntu)

    Hi everyone,
    I've been pulling my hair out for about 8 hours now, finally decided to post. I have my htpc connected to a new pioneer sc-65 receiver and cannot get any sound working via hdmi at all. To make sure it wasn't a hardware problem i've tested with both ubuntu 12.10 and windows 7, both work just fine out of the box. My arch setup also works fine when plugged directly into the TV via hdmi, just not to the receiver (ubuntu/windows work fine with the receiver).
    speaker-test -D plughw:0,3 -c 2
    and
    aplay -D plughw:0,3 /usr/share/sounds/alsa/Front_Center.wav
    play fine to the tv, nothing on the receiver, no errors either way, just no sound.
    Output of aplay -l
    aplay -l

    I've tried every combination of power cycling the devices, power cycling receiver while playing back audio, etc. I was running just ALSA and decided to install pulseaudio out of desperation, still no luck. Hardware is i3-2120T on intel DH61AG motherboard. Any help is greatly appreciated!

    Thanks for the reply sad clown, i haven't really been able to figure out the cause. Optical audio does not work either, even with an external sound card, so it must be some type of configuration problem, but i'll probably never figure it out. I'm back to using onboard analog audio which just sucks...I always end up with the strangest unsolvable problems that no one else ever seems to have lol.

  • The iTune Remote App has stopped finding my iTunes library when connected to wifi from my main router, but works fine when connected via second wifi router on the same network (different SSID)

    I'm running iTunes Remote App from a couple of iPhone 5's and a first generation iPod Touch. iTunes is running on a PC - Windows 7. My home network runs two Wifi Routers, each with a different SSID. I've had no problems with the Remote app running this set up for the last 8 months but recently the App can only find my iTunes library when the iPhone/iPod is connected via one specific router, when connected to the network via the other router, no iTunes library is found. I'm also running an Apple TV and it's the same as the iTunes Library, only visible via the one SSID.
    Everything else seems to work fine when connected via either router, eg Internet on the iPhones (definitely via wifi)
    I've tried renewing the lease on the iPhone wifi connection, restarting everything.....several times.....
    It used to work fine, this only seems to have been a problem in recent weeks
    Any help or advice would be much appreciated
    Thanks
    Ian

    It turned out to be the firewall settings on our router. Her machine was sending traffic that our router interpreted as a DoS attack and blacklisted her Airport's MAC address. That's why it would work fine if she switched to Ethernet.

  • Data type change made to schema.xml of comments list which is part of blog site template is not reflecting in the existing site but working fine when new site is created.

    Hi,
    I have created a blog site with the available site template few days back. Now we have the requirement of having the attachments in the body of the comments section. 
    So, I updated the schema.xml of the comments list available under ../templates/blog/lists/comments/schema.xml to have rich text for the Body field.
    With this change, I created a new site and it was working fine. Change is reflected in the new blog site.
    However, this particular change is not reflected in the existing blog site. Any changes made to the schema.xml is not effecting the old blog site.
    Can anyone suggest what can be done for the change to be reflected in the old blog site?
    Thanks in Advance,
    Regards, Keerthi Suryadevara

    Hi,
    According to your post, my understanding is that you wanted to add attachments in the body of the comments section.
    You can add the the Code inside the Default list pages. For more information, you can refer to:
    Enable Attachment in SharePoint Blog post list and display the list Attachments
    In addition, you can add an enhanced rich text field to the comment list and remove the body field. Then you can insert files into comments, too.

  • Web cam stopped working with Windows 7 (but works fine with Ubuntu Live CD).

    Since two days my web cam stopped working. I am using Windows 7 64 bit and I have a Toshiba L505d S5992. It does not show in Device Manager and Windows Update doesn't recognize it, manually I can not install it, so my best guess it was broken.
    But then I tried the LiveDVD of Ubuntu 10.10 (64 bit) and it recognized immediately my web cam and the blue light came on. I have no clue what happened with Windows 7 but it's getting very frustrating.
    Any help would be very welcome at this point.

    Download the webcam application for your unit from this website.
    Uninstall it on the programs and features then installed the downloaded webcam application.
    Hope this will help you solve the issue.

  • Records returned with static parameter, but don't when using dynamic

    Hello,
    I am using CR Developer, Version 11.0.0.1282   (BTW, I keep seeing references to Release 1 and Release 2, and I'm not sure which my version is.)
    I have a large database (500,000 land records) and each record has a value for Management Program and for Project Name. Within each Management Program there are many Project Names.
    If I set up a static parameter for Management Program, users are able to select a single Management Program (i.e. WMA, for Wildlife Management Area) from the dropdown list. This returns all records that have WMA listed as the Management Program, which thus includes all Project Names. This works fine, but I want to return just those records that are for a single Project Name.
    So I got rid of the static parameter and instead created a dynamic parameter, where the user first selects a Management Program, and then a single Project Name.
    I think I set up the parameters correctly, and the select formula (see below) includes those parameters. When I then try to run the report, I successfully get the expected drop down boxes, where I can first pick out the Management Program I want, then the Project Names that apply just to that Management Program.
    That part seems to work fine, but no data gets returned.
    The SQL query seems fine:
    SELECT "LAND_RECORDS"."TOWNSHIP",
    "LAND_RECORDS"."TOWNSHIP_DIR",
    "LAND_RECORDS"."RANGE",
    "LAND_RECORDS"."RANGE_DIR",
    "LAND_RECORDS"."SECTION",
    "LAND_RECORDS"."FORTY_DSC",
    "LAND_RECORDS"."GOVT_LOT",
    "LAND_RECORDS"."GROSS_ACRES",
    "LAND_RECORDS"."LAND_TYPE",
    "LAND_RECORDS"."PUBLIC_USE_ADMINISTRATOR",
    "LAND_RECORDS"."PUBLIC_USE_MGMT_PROG_CODE",
    "LAND_RECORDS"."PUBLIC_USE_PROG_PROJ",
    "LAND_RECORDS"."PUBLIC_USE_PROJECT_CODE",
    "LAND_RECORDS"."SURFACE_OWNED_CODE",
    "LAND_RECORDS"."PUBLIC_USE_MGMT_PROG"
    FROM   "LNDREC"."LAND_RECORDS" "LAND_RECORDS"
    WHERE  "LAND_RECORDS"."SURFACE_OWNED_CODE"='Y' AND "LAND_RECORDS"."PUBLIC_USE_MGMT_PROG"='WILDLIFE MANAGEMENT AREA' AND "LAND_RECORDS"."PUBLIC_USE_PROG_PROJ"='AGDER'
    ORDER BY "LAND_RECORDS"."PUBLIC_USE_MGMT_PROG_CODE",
    "LAND_RECORDS"."PUBLIC_USE_PROG_PROJ"
    And here is the selection formula:
    {LAND_RECORDS.SURFACE_OWNED_CODE} = "Y" and
    {LAND_RECORDS.PUBLIC_USE_MGMT_PROG} = {?Management Program - PUBLIC_USE_MGMT_PROG} and
    {LAND_RECORDS.PUBLIC_USE_PROG_PROJ} = {?Management Program - PUBLIC_USE_PROG_PROJ}
    Can anyone tell me why no records get returned when I use the dynamic parameter, while those same records (as well as the other records for that Management Program) get returned when I use the static parameter?
    Thanks in advance for any help you can give me.

    Hi Sanjay,
    When I wrote "glitch", I was pretty sure that was more likely indicative of a glitch in my primitive SQL skills than the software itself...     
    There is indeed a unique ID# associated with each Project. The problem is that there are thousands of projects, and people in the field are much more likely to remember the project name than the 8-digit long ID#.
    However, I found a way to make it work...
    I retained my first two parameters (Management Program, and Project Name), but then added a 3rd parameter for Project Code. The use first selects the Management Program, then the Project Name, and then the project code. But the only project code that appears as an option is the single one associated with the project name, and when they click on that, only the correct results gets returned.
    That one extra mouse click seems like a small price to pay so that you don't get extraneous results returned (i.e. getting results for both ANDERSON and ANDERSON LAKES when you ONLY request ANDERSON LAKES.)
    So, problem solved...thanks again for your help.

  • PDF files not able to view with mac os but working fine with other browers even i downloaded pdf plugins

    Hi,
    On Apple Mac i am not able to view/open pdf files even i downloaded adobe reader plugins but same thing i can open with help of other browsers like chrome. And with firefox i am getting below message when try to open pdf files.
    "It appears you don't have Adobe Reader or PDF support in this web browser. Click here to download Adobe Reader".
    I want to fix it for my client.
    So please suggest me to fix this.

    When you install or update Adobe Reader, it installs a plugin for viewing PDF files inside Firefox and sets that as the default. The problem is that this plugin does not work. In order to view PDF files again follow these steps

  • Macbook Pro Retina - doesn't connect to Internet after "hibernation" but works fine after a complete shut down.

    This is a new occurence and is not tied to the Maverick update.
    When I close the top of my laptop and reopen it (whether 10 minutes or overnight) and click on the Safari icon - I get my Safari opening screen - but each tab says (Fails to connect).    No problem if I shut the machine off and then restart it.   Connects right away.
    As this is not tied to any upgrade or addition of any software or change in the router - I suspect I may have inadvertently changed something and I'm at a loss.   Has anyone seen this and figured out what stupid thing I may have done?   I never go into registries or anything like that and I would be uncomfortable doing that - particulary because I have a fix - just shut down the computer completely after each use.
    Thank you in advance....

    If it's a network that requires a password, just a hunch, but I'd try this even though it says WPA2 and different symptoms & HW, wish Apple would update that doc, as many other reconnect problems get fixed by it...

  • I have ipad 3 with iOS7- Safari is working fine- when I try to go to itune or buy an app nothing happens.

    Have a year old ipad- itwill connect ti internet using Safari but sice yesterday will not connect to itunes or allow the purchase of an app. Touching the apps icon on the screen takes me to the apps store but after selecting one, nothing happens (Just the whirling "o" that usually indicates activity.) Nothing happens if I select the itunes icon icon on the screnn> Any thoughts?

    I let the little "o" whirl for over half hour with nothing happening. Just now went to Music and the last selection I played appears of the screen but both it or anyother song on album refuses to play - same with videos they show up but nada can,t even erase them - internet connection is via cable - quick enough for most applications.

  • Hp 3510 prints only blank pages from i-pad, but works fine with xp configured lap top. why? help!

    i have an hp3510 wireless printer that worked fine with both my i-pad and on my laptop when 1st installed.  now it will only print blank pages with the i-pad although it still works fine when using my xp configured laptop.  can anyone tell me how to correct the i-pad problem so that i can print wirelessly using that device?
    thanks!
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    I would start by powering down the Apple device, make sure that you hold the power button down, and slide the bar on the screen to "Off". If you have more that 1 iOS device that you use with the printer (like another iPad or an iPhone) power them down at the same time. Then turn them all back on and try to print to the printer.
    If still having a problem, I would then power down the printer, router, and Apple device.
    1. Unplug the router, (most do not have an on/off button)
    2. power down printer and Apple device
    3. Wait about 20-30 seconds
    4. Plug router back in and wait for it to be fully operational and all the light on it back as they were before unplugging it.
    5.Power printer and apple device back on (check to settings of iPad to make sure that it is still on the same network as printer and that "Ask to join other networks" is ON).
    6. Reattempt to print

  • Update impossible on the new MBP Retina?

    Hi! I got my new MBP Retina two weeks ago and since then I tried to update it several times, but there's always an error message saying "the package is broken" or something like this when I reboot it.
    I mean it does try to install it when rebooting but it fails everytime.I tried to download every package from Apple website separately and install them apart with the same failure everytime. I'm wondering where the error is!!
    I consider restore my session but if you happen to know anything before I do that it would be awesome and perhaps save me a great amont of time! Thanks a lot!
    Configuration details :
    Processor : 2.6 GHz intel Core i7
    Memory : 16Go 1600 MHz DDR3
    HD : 512 Go SSD

    What are you updating please?

  • Brand new MBP Retina constant kernal panics

    I've got many more where that came from. I just don't want to post a wall of text.

    An update on my situation.
    I had my macbook pro replaced with a brand new one by Apple, which was brilliant customer service.
    Before giving back the old macbook, I decided to copy all my essential documents over to a usb stick. I also formatted my time machine external drive so it was blank.
    Rather than restore this new macbook using my time machine backup, I set it up as a new machine and copied just my documents from my usb stick. I then proceeded to carry out fresh installs of software I regularly use but nothing non-essential (namely Spotify, Firefox, Chrome, xCode, Adobe CS5, Squidman, MAMP and Office 2011).
    For three days everything worked beautifully - until last night when I had my first kernel panic on this machine. Nothing was running apart from firefox when this panic occured. The report is below and states the process which was running was 'plugin-container' which is part of firefox.
    Below is the log output:

    I'm running the latest OS X Mavericks - all updated to date.
    I've tested the thunderbolt display with a friends MacBook Air and I see no problems there.
    Any clues what is going on? Or it this latest Kernel Panic just a coincidence compared to my previous macbook?
    Thanks in advance!
