Newbie : Trouble connecting to Airport from Win 8.1 on Macbook Pro

I recently bought a Macbook Pro 2013 and an Airport time capsule 2TB . I have win 8.1 installed via boot camp but am unable to connect to airport from windows as I get a "The capability of your network adapter does not match the requirements of this network". No problem connecting to the airport from the OSX partition. Also no problem connecting to a different wireless "N" network. I did install the windows drivers from Apple. The network is seen from windows byt has an x marked against it with the above message. Can some one help?
Arun.

Hmm... No answers yet I am still having this problem. I can't be the only one using Windows 8.1 on a 2013 Macbook Pro trying to connect to an 2013 Airport Time Capsule. Am I? Maybe I should play the lottery ;-). Any way if there is any one else successful in the above mentioned set up. I'd like to see if I can mimick their set up. Can some one verify if I am using the right driver to begin with? I have version 6.30.223.170 from broadcom corporation. If that is not the version to use, can some one please let me know which one to use. I can also let you know my settings if that does not work. I can do that by private email and post a consolidated reply if I am able to solve the problem. Thanks in advance and Happy New Year to all.

  • I'm having trouble connecting to my school's wifi using my MacBook Pro!

    My school has a wi-fi network allowing students to connect all over campus. I am able to connect mostly everywhere accept for the library, which is where I would like to access internet. Everyone around me is able to connect, but I continue to have issues. What normally should happen once connected is a screen will pop up prompting you to enter your school I.D # and password. When I attempt to connect, a screen will pop up saying something like "connection time out!" I've tried almost everything, even asked the IT department who obviously weren't able to help me. Can anyone offer any suggestions?

    i think you should try resetting and reconfiguring the router...
    try the following wireless settings :
    ssid  : any non-linksys name
    channel : either 1 or 11
    beacon interval : 50
    Fragmentation threshold  : 2306
    RTS threshold : 2307  

  • Having trouble transferring MP3 files from Windows 7 to Apple MacBook Pro

    On my Windows 7 PC I have about 200GB of mp3 files sorted into different files to suit there genre, for example 80's Music, 90's Music etc. I am using a Western Digital hard drive to store this music on to then open on my Apple MacBook Pro when needed but when I try and open on my Apple MacBook Pro the folders will not open and seem to appear as a shortcut to something. Can anybody help me solve this problem? Thank you in advance

    The first thing you need to think about is what files you want to transfer. Most people want to bring over information like:
    Photographs
    Music
    Movies
    and MS Office (Word, Excel & PPT) documents.
    If that is what you're looking for then you simply locate those files on your Vista box and drag them to an external HD. If you need help doing that visit your local Apple Store and they will be able to help you out. Another option is you are covered by 90 days of free telephone support on AppleCare, look in your owners manual for the phone number and call. Someone there should be able to get you going.

  • HT4628 trouble connecting with airport

    Having trouble connected via airport. Have done it day in day out for a year. Nothing has changed.
    Now it won't recognize my password. It recognizes everyone else in the office. Just not my machine anymore.
    I can get internet via tethering to an iphone but not my machine.
    Any thoughts?
    Yes, I've restarted...

    I'm curious, is the router over there an apple router or third party? Are they using WEP encryption or WPA?
    You may want to start by removing all your 'airportnetwork passwords' from you keychain.

    I cannot connect to my outgoing email server on my macBook pro, yet I can, for the same email account on my iPad. Also I can send emails from the other email account I have on my MacBook...really confused can anyone help?

    Sometimes deleting the account and then re-creating it can solve this issue
    Write down all the information in accounts before doing this
    Highlight the account on the left and click the minus button
    Then click the plus button to add the new account and follow the prompts

  • I m trying to transfer my data from my imac to my macbook pro using transfer manager i m connected to wiifi it says that the process will take above 55 hours ? I have only 38gb to tranfere ? Why so long isnt normal

    Hi
    I m trying to make a transfer to all my data from my imac to my macbook pro with wireless ... And using my transfer manager as requested but it show 55 hours time to download ? Whats wrong ?

    So there are several factors that may point to why your transfer is going to take so long.  First and foremost it is going to be the type/speed of wireless you're using.  Your router and computers should all be using the same type of wifi (ie 802.11G or 802.11N).  That will ensure the best "theoretical" transfer speeds across your network.  Depending on what type of router you have and what type of wireless cards your computers have that will determine the max theoretical transfer speeds you could achieve.  For instance the fastest available wifi is currently 802.11N at approximately 300MB/S maximum transfer speed.  Realistically you'll probably see about 10% of that. 
    Secondly the speed of the computers and their hard drives will also play a large factor in the transfer time.  If your computer has a slower processor or uses a lot of virtual ram (which uses the hard disc drive) you will experience slower transfer speeds. 
    As seventy one said you will experience MUCH faster transfer speeds over ethernet.  You will especially noticie faster speeds over gigabit ethernet.  Gigabit speeds require both computers to have a gigabit ethernet port and a router with a gigabit ethernet switch. 
    With all of that being said depending on other variables the connection may speed up and slowdown depending on current network traffic and your transfer time may increase/decrease accordingly.  I would suspect it won't take 55 hours.

  • Importing iTunes library from old powerbook to new macbook pro

    What is the best way to import my old itunes library (from my 10.4.7 powerbook) to my new macbook pro?
    Thanks!

    I'm still having some trouble, can someone give me guidance? Here is what I did:
    1. Connected old mac (PowerBook G4) to new mac (MacBook Pro) via firewire 800 and target mode.
    2. Located "iTunes Music" folder on old Mac and pulled the entire folder into "iTunes Music" on the new Mac.
    3. I restarted.
    4. iTunes didn't find the new music, it does find the one song I've purchased using the new Mac. I think this makes sense, because now the folder structure has an embedded "iTunes Music" folder (from the old Mac) in my new mac's "iTunes Music" folder. The structure looks like:
    -iTunes Music
    ----[folder for the one song I've purchased on the new mac]
    ----iTunes Music (this is the folder from the old mac)
    ---------[folders of music from the old mac]
    5. So I went into the iTunes Music folder I just imported, selected all the music, and copied it one level up.
    6. The result is on my new mac, my "iTunes Music" folder now contains all the music from the old mac, plus the one song I've puchased using the new mac.
    7. I restarted my new mac. Restarted iTunes, but still the only song that's recognized is the one I've already purchased. The others aren't showing.
    8. I've gone into preferences/advanced and confirmed I'm pointing at the right target folder.
    Any thoughts on what I'm doing wrong here?

  • How do I restore from the icloud to my MacBook Pro?

    I am not seeing how to RESTORE from iCloud back to my MacBook Pro... how do I do this?  My Harddrive died a few weeks ago and I want to recover whatever I have in the cloud.

    Howdy Mdelrusso,
    It sounds like you are wanting to restore from your iCloud backup to your MacBook Pro.
    iCloud backups are for iOS devices, and does not backup Mac computers.
    What iCloud backs up
    You have important information on your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch. iCloud automatically backs up your device over Wi-Fi every day while it’s turned on, locked, and connected to a power source. With your device information backed up in iCloud, you can easily set up a new device or restore information on one you already have.
    From: iCloud: iCloud storage and backup overview
              http://support.apple.com/kb/PH12519?viewlocale=en_US
    Time Machine is what Mac computers use to backup and restore data. Here is some more info about what Time Machine is and how it works.
    Mac Basics: Time Machine backs up your Mac
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1427
    If you were using iCloud for your Mail, Contacts, and/or Calendars you can turn on the iCloud functions to get that content back to your computer with this webpage:

  • How can i transfer all my photos from iMac iPhoto Library to macbook pro to iPhoto or Adobe Lightroom 5

    Just bought a 13.3" Macbook Pro Retina display Mid 2014 and would like to transfer all my Photos from my iMac to my Macbook Pro.
    I have a thunderbolt cable ?????? Would it work if i connect them together and how ? If i can get some assistance and instructions on how to do it , Will be appreciated .
    Best regards
    Sam

    To move an iPhoto Library to a new machine:
    Link the two Macs together: there are several ways to do this: Wireless Network,Firewire Target Disk Mode, Ethernet, or even just copy the Library to an external HD and then on to the new machine...
    But however you do choose to link the two machines...
    Simply copy the iPhoto Library from the Pictures Folder on the old Machine to the Pictures Folder on the new Machine.
    Then launch iPhoto. That's it.
    This moves photos, events, albums, books, keywords, slideshows and everything else.
    If you're moving to Lightroom:
    You need to export the images from iPhoto to the Finder, then import them to your Lightroom Catalogue.

  • How I can transfer some of my apps from I phone to my MacBook Pro?

    How I can transfer some of my apps from I phone to my MacBook Pro?

    Start iTunes 11.1 or later on your MacBook Pro and connect your iPhone. Select your iPhone in iTunes and under General select Transfer purchases.
    That will create backups of your apps on your MacBook Pro. The apps will not run on your MacBook Pro though just in case you were wanting to do that. The Mac OS X on the MacBook Pro and the iOS on your iPhone are different operating systems.
