The thunderbolt ethernet adapter driver problem

The thunderbolt ethernet adapter is not being recognized on my 2014 Macbook Air running 10.9.3. Is there a driver for it?  MacBook Air, Mac OS X (10.9.2)

That's because there's no thunderbolt port on the 2010 MBair.  You need to buy the USB ethernet adapter.

  • Windows 7 64bit on bootcamp doesn't recognize the thunderbolt-ethernet adapter

    in my new macbook pro retina I've a problem on window 7 64bit (bootcamp 4.0). the OS doesn't recognize the thunderbolt-ethernet adapter..

    The thunderbolt ethernet adapter works without issue on my rMBP with Windows 7. Did you download and install the Windows Support software? Did you refer to the Windows help regarding networking? Did you try a different adapter? What happens when you try to use Ethernet networking?

  • Thunderbolt Ethernet adapter problem

    I am a composer.I just bought a Macbook ProRetina (full upgraded) to link it as a slave to my main DAW (Logic) with Vienna Ensemble Pro 5 (http://www.vsl.co.at/en/211/497/1685/1990/1680.htm).
    The system with the new MacbookPro Retina doesn't work.
    I have contacted Vienna Instruments and it seem that the problem can be on Apple side: the Thunderbolt - Ethernet adapter.
    Any information or help to how to solve this problem?
    Thanks!

    Hi xavibcn,
    I am also a composer, and I'm trying to use Vienna Ensemble Pro over a network with a Thunderbold to Ethernet adapter. Have you been able to get it to work since you posted this? Would love to hear if you found a work-around.
    Thanks!

  • Thunderbolt/Ethernet Adapter AVB/IEEE1588 Support.

    Hi,
    I have just seen that the Ethernet port has been removed from the MacBook Pro (retina). The Ethernet port was interestting for AVB (audio-video-bridging) development. Now that it's gone, do you know if the Thunderbolt/Ethernet Adapter supports AVB and IEEE1588?
    Thanks!

    Yes, it will work.
    All Apple Macs with a Thunderbolt port are AVB capable.

  • Problems with Thunderbolt Ethernet Adapter with 10.9.1

    Hi!

    Thanks,
    Rex

    If you purchased the computer before 2010, your computer hasn't got Thunderbolt, so you can't use it

  • I got internal error 2738 after trying to install the marvell yucon ethernet adapter driver

    I got the marvell yucon ethernet adapter driver on the acer support page. My laptop is an extensa 5420-5038 with vista sp2 32 bit. My wired lan is not working but the wireless is. The version of the acer driver is 10.12.8.3 if that would help. I think uninstalling the old software for the adapter must have failed during installation and I don't know what to do. I don't know how to find any old applications or machine language software for the adapter in the computer to uninstall before trying again if that is what I have to do. Do I have to go to the command prompt and do something?

  • Thunderbolt ethernet adapter causing buzz within MBP.

    I've noticed something very weird lately with my retina MBP. Whenever I'm loading largish (> 1mb images) files in the browser, my laptop emits a noise that sounds like there's a tiny little buzzer somewhere inside the laptop. It lasts as long as the file is loading onto the page or downloading in the background. I've been able to reduce the problem down to only occurring when I'm plugged in using a thunderbolt ethernet adapter. On power, off power, connected to external display or not, the noise is present. I would really like to stay connected to ethernet, but I have no idea where to begin fixing this very weird problem.

    I bought a new adapter but this one doesn't work too! That's €29 well spent
    So anybody got any clue what to do? It shows up in the system info, but there is no thunderbolt ethernet interface available in network settings...

  • Thunderbolt  ethernet adapter

    Hi,
    Using the wired thunderbolt ethernet adapter my network works for about a minute after the adapter is plugged in then stops working with the cable showing as unplugged in network settings.  The only way to reconnect is to pull the adapter and re-insert it.
    As far as I can tell all software and firmware is up to date.
    Is this likely to be a faulty adapter or am I missing some other settings?
    thanks,
    Andy

    I haven't tried this yet but someone else posted a solution here--> http://store.apple.com/us/question/answers/product/MD463ZM/A?pqid=QX9TA99XFCKHD2 74UUDXXXFHKKDTXH22K9UT99TATKCDUTTY7

  • Thunderbolt Ethernet Adapter requires reboot to be detected...

    I have a 2012 Macbook Pro Retina running Windows 7 under boot camp, and regularly move from home to work (home where I have the thunderbolt ethernet adaptor and work where I use Wifi). Unfortunately though, when I get home I'm forced to plug in the thunderbolt ethernet adaptor and restat the machine, or it won't recognise the new connection, and stays on WiFi.
    It doesn't even show up as a new device in Device Manager, not even an unrecognised one!
    Any ideas?
    Nick

    Haha I know, I know! I was willing to give Mac OS a go, and DID for a little bit but I need to run a fair few windows only software suites, and REALLY like the 2880x1800 retina display (something you can't get on a windows laptop!)
    2 USB 3.0 ports is enough for me really, though yes, an ethernet port would have been nice, it's not the end of the world :-)
    Anyway, I actually really like the experience so far, having on a couple of small problems (Bluetooth & A2DP + Bluetooth Collaboration and this Thunderbolt Ethernet issue), but having this post here will hopefully yield a simple solution (as I have searched and found for the Bluetooth issue, Toshiba Bluetooth Stack fixed it!).
    There's no point quietly accepting niggling issues if someone out there can help!

  • Thunderbolt Ethernet adapter not connecting on MacBook Pro Retina

    I recently purchased the Thunderbolt to Ethernet Adapter to connect to my 13in MacBook Pro Retina Late 2012 (Mountain Lion 10.8.2) to a hardwired internet connection for faster downloads. However, when I connect the ethernet cord to the adapter nothing happens and only the wifi connection is identified.
    Ethernet or Thunderbolt Ethernet are not an option in the System Preference > Network. Also, either connection are options when trying to add a network interface ( System Preferences > Network > + > Interface).
    I have tried several fixes like Resetting PRAM or Removing Network Preferences File. The NetworkInferences.plist and Preferences.plist files did get recreated after reboot, but only the WIFI interface shows up.
    http://tearfulwolfstudios.wordpress.com/2012/03/13/reset-network-preferences-osx /
    http://rohanradio.com/blog/2012/02/27/fixing-thunderbolt-ethernet-on-the-macbook -pro/
    I am sure the Thunderbolt ports are functional since I am able to connect my display using Mini DisplayPort to DVI Adapter
    Could I have corrupted the Network Preference File or is could the Thunderbolt to Ethernet Adapter damaged?
    Please help.

    I had this problem, too, and an Apple Support call and Genius Bar visit later, I had the answer: if you're using Network Locations that preexist your Thunderbolt display, it doesn't seem to auto-add the possibility of "Display Ethernet" to your available network ports. To solve this, either:
    Create a new Location in your Network system preferences. It will finally detect the "Display Ethernet" and use it. It'll slowly change from disconnected to No IP to green-is-for-go.
    or
    Fix an existing Location by clicking the + to add a port and choosing Display Ethernet. It'll slowly change from disconnected to No IP to green-is-for-go.

  • Thunderbolt Ethernet adapter not connecting

    I have spent the last two weeks scanning every single forum and every response in regards to this very question above and none have worked.
    Issue:
    I am running a MBA mid 2012 on OS X 10.8.3. It is a new device. I have tried to update all thunderbolt drivers and get the regular "not supported or not compatible" because all firmware/software is up to date . I changed location settings in network adapter but nothing happens. I have done an SMC and PRAM reset but again nothing. I can see the port recognises my thunderbolt adapter (Apple standard) and shows it to be connected. I am using the same ethernet cable / settings on my standard desktop PC so i know the routing and cables are fine.
    I see so many issues with the thunderbolt connection online so clearly something is a miss. I have VMWare fusion 5 installed if that helps also.
    I would go to a genius bar with this but im stuck on an island in the middle of the atlantic ocean so impossible!
    Thanks

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, or by a peripheral device. 
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Post for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin. Test while in safe mode. Same problem? After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

  • MacAir - Apple USB Ethernet Adapter Drive

    Hi,
    im using macair, and trying to install bootcamp for windows Vista / XP. however, im having difficulties to download driver for Apple USB Ethernet Adapter. if anyone know where to download this driver, please advise me..

    Welcome to Apple Discussions!
    There doesn't seem to be a clear-cut answer to this. If you read the reviews on the Apple site, some people have been able to make the ethernet adaptor work on some PowerPC Macs, and others can't even get it to work on a different Intel Mac. I know this isn't much help, but a perusal of these reviews might be the best resource unless someone else has actually done this with the same iBook that you have.
    I assume you have tried a different ethernet cable?
    Good luck!
