Stereo changes to bluetooth every time my macbook pro turns on
Hi, I just got a macbook pro, my first mac. I paired it with my onkyo receiver and works great but now every time I turn or wake up my macbook my receiver automatically switches to bluethooth. Also I can't pair with my phone, it only wants the macbook. Is there a way to only turn on the bluetooth on my macbook if I'm streaming music? Is there more settings for bluetooth?

Every time my MacBook Pro is put to sleep, it will not connect to the internet upon reopening unless I perform diagnostic assistant.
Test after taking each of the following steps that you haven't already tried. Back up all data before making any changes.
1. Make sure the network is on the preferred list by following these instructions. It's important to read the article carefully, as it's the starting point for any further efforts to solve the problem. If you skip any of the steps, the problem may not be solved. Make sure the box marked
Remember networks this computer has joined
is checked.
2. Follow the instructions in this support article under the heading
Symptom: After restarting or waking from sleep, my computer might not connect to the Internet
3. Reset the PRAM.
4. Make a note of all your settings for Wi-Fi in the Network preference pane, then delete the connection from the connection list and recreate it with the same settings. You do this by clicking the plus-sign icon below the connection list, and selecting Wi-Fi as the interface in the sheet that opens. Select Join other network from the Network Name menu, then select your network. Enter the password when prompted and save it in the keychain.
5. From the Location menu at the top of the Network preference pane, select Edit Locations. A sheet will drop down. Click the plus-sign button to create a new location. Give it any name you want. In the new location, set up the Wi-Fi service with the same settings you used before. Click Apply and test.
6. Launch the Keychain Access application. Search for and delete all AirPort network password items that refer to the network. Make a note of the password first.
7. Repair permissions on the startup volume.
8. Turn off Bluetooth and test.
9. Reset the System Management Controller.
10. Reinstall OS X. -
I am trying to set up an older Airport as a "range extender" with MacBook Pro. Message is I need to use Airport Utility 5.6. I downloaded it, but installation fails every time. I'm on Lion. Any suggestions out there? Thanks, Allen
AirPort Utility 5.6 for Lion will only work for systems running OS X 10.7.2.
To install it on later versions requires the workaround described in this thread: How do I configure an Airport Express when I get this message in Airport Utility? "This version of AirPort Utility doesn’t support this base station."
Pay attention to the caveat in the final paragraph, restated here for emphasis:
Keep in mind that Apple's decision to abandon support for your original AirPort Express was for reasons known only to them. Remember that you are using obsolete equipment, should some future OS X feature not work for you.
I am trying to set up an older Airport as a "range extender" with MacBook Pro.
The only way to "wirelessly extend" a wireless network using the original 802.11b/g - only AirPort Express or Extreme is to implement a WDS, a woefully inefficient compromise that's difficult to configure even for experienced users. You can use an original Express or original AEBS as an additional wireless access point for a wired LAN in a "roaming network" though. -

Elements Organizer crashes EVERY time on Macbook pro i7 with 8g ram.
THis is my Third requst for help- the program doesn't work on my machine, but I meet the specs.. Program doesn't open.. get the splash creen then it crashes. Running a macbook pro, i7 Mavericks, blah blah blah
You replied in a post referencing 10.6.8 that you had 'the same problem'. Did you upgrade to Maverick AFTER installing PSE? If so you must delete all the PSE preferences, They will get recreated when you restart the program. Details here - http://barbarabrundage.com/2013/10/28/photoshop-elements-and-os-x-mavericks/.

I have a LG HBS-700 bluetooth stereo headset and "in order to access Multi-Connection mode, at least one of the two devices you are trying to connect to the HBS-700 must be able to select a profile, OR one of the two devices must only support one profile (Either Headset/Hands-Free or A2DP/AVRCP). For example: Two handsets which support both the Headset/Hands-Free and A2DP/AVRCP profiles cannot be connected to the HBS-700 simultaneously. But, one handset supporting Headset/Hands-Free/A2DP/AVRCP and a Bluetooth Stereo Dongle supporting only A2DP/AVRCP is OK".
Backup your computer. You may have to replace the HD.
Try repairing disk.

This just started happening randomly a couple months ago. Now it happens on every sleep or screen saver instance. I cannot trace it to a specific OSX update. I have gone as far as a full OSX recovery and restoration of Time Machine backup. Where can I look to get to the bottom of this?

Wifi network does not show up every time my Macbook pro dies?
I tried turning the Airport on and off, and even tried it as if it were a hidden network, but the network just seems totally unreachable by the laptop.
Always have to go to Starbucks or anywhere else with a new wifi connection and then bring the laptop home, cause after that, my laptop seems to magically remember the old network.
Any help?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.
System Preferences/Internet & Network/Network
Unlock the padlock
Locations: Automatic
Highlight Airport
Click the Assist Me button
In the popup window click the Diagnostic button.
System Preferences/Network- Unlock padlock. Highlight Airport. Network Name-select your name. Click on the Advanced button. Airport/Preferred Networks-delete all that is not your network.
Place a check mark next to "Remember networks this computer has joined." Click the OK button and lock the padlock. Restart your computer.

HT2478 how do you make the setting to change desktop background every time you shut down your mac
how to make setting to change desktop background every time you close your mac
because i want to make it if anybody tries to change my dekstop picture i want it to go backto set desktop pictureDon't let other people access your Mac in admin mode - they might change something a lot more important than the Desktop picture.
However you can use Automator: create an Application in it, and select 'Set the Desktop Picture' from the Library. Choose the picture you want. Save the application, then go to System Preferences>Accounts>Login Items and select the Automator application you just created. This will then run at startup and set your chosen picture. -

I just switched from iphone 4s to LG G3. I'm having issues with bluetooth in my car, iphone would sync automatically but with G3 I have to manually connect to my car's bluetooth every time I turn it on - it won't sync automatically. Any fixes?
You can turn on BT tethering but it disables Wifi so if I have to do that step every time I get in my car, I just as well manually connect on BT every time.

is it possible to change the hard drive in a macbook pro, if so where from? and how?

whats a green drive? thnks
Green is a marketing term for a drive designed for lower power use, lower noise, and lower heat. The side effect is that it's not as fast. Black drives are designed for highest performance, so they might use more power and run hotter and noisier. I upgraded my Apple Time Capsule with a green drive, but I put a black drive in my Mac Pro.

7200 RPM drives are faster than 5400 RPM drives.
As in cars, RPM is not the sole determinant of performance. In some cases, a newer drive at a lower RPM is faster than an older drive at a higher RPM, when the newer drive uses better technology. I have heard that some of today's high-capacity 5400RPM drives are faster than 7200RPM drives of lower capacity simply because the very high density of a 1TB drive means more data passes under the head even at a lower RPM. Certainly there have been times in Apple's past when new lower RPM drives were faster than higher RPM drives of the previous generation, a notable example being when 4200RPM perpendicular recording drives were introduced and beat 5400RPM drives.
Yes, generally RPM can be used to compare, but it is important to realize it isn't always true. -
Graphic card problem maybe? Since when I have changed the hard drive to my macbook pro and I installed all the new softwares, my mac is very slow and the screen gives crazy pictures,could maybe be the graphic card, does anybody have experienced this?
after a restart it works for a time, but always slow. I went to the Applestore this afternoon and the made a check and said it would be the logicboard and they would have to change it for CHF 600 and it would be ready in 10 - 15 days

If so, are there any problems and/or limitations in doing so? (i.e. no stereo sound, or anything else?).Can you use Bluetooth earphones simultaneously with the Magic Mouse (which is also Bluetooth)?
