Turning Bluetooth On Renders my WiFi Inoperable- 2012 rMBP

Hi,
Whenever I turn the bluetooth on on my 2012 rMBP, the WiFi ceases to work. At all. Once I disconnect/turn off bluetooth, the internet again works perfectly. This has been tested on multiple WiFi networks. Is this a widespread issue? Is there a fix for this (I'm out of warranty, unfortunately)?

Same with me and I have the same:
MacBook Pro with Retina display, OS X Yosemite (10.10.1)
I use and external display, mouse and keyboard. Now - post Yosemite and post 10.10.1 update I don't. Quite a bad problem for Apple.

  • How to turns the phone to a WiFi HotSpot

    Please tell me there is any good free software is available for N97 which turns the phone to a WiFi HotSpot.
    I used the Joikuspot Premium and that's really good but don't want to spend money, if anything free is available which have no limitation on accessing the internet (http, ftp. smtp).

    This is for a Mac, which I believe is closely related to the piece of equipment you are trying to connect to, assuming it has bluetooth you should be able to use it

  • What best way to turn on all computers remotely using sccm 2012 sp 1

    what best way to turn on all computers remotely using sccm  2012
    and what the difference  between wake on lan and out of band service point role

    Hey!!! I am a 1E engineer and MVP... we started the power management movement with our very first software product, created around 12 or so years ago, called 1E WakeUp. The complete solution which manages power on (integrated with SCCM, or stand alone if
    you are not an SCCM shop) and power off (under a tightly controlled process) is called
    NightWatchman
    Here is a
    recent blog post I authored that was the last in a series documenting the entire wake-up process including how it integrates with SCCM or stood up standalone. It contains links to those earlier posts that explain our entire technology, so you will likely
    want to read all of them in order for a full understanding of our technology. It works incredibly well, is the most mature solution in the industry, and is extremely simple to install with minimal resources.
    If you have any questions, feel free to reach out to me privately

  • Everyone 5 or 10 minutes I have to turn off and on the wifi.

    Hi... Every 5 or 10 minutes I have to turn off and on the wifi if im using safari or anything else, like email or apps that need the wifi. Also if im not using the ipad and i pick it up to use it i first have to turn off and on the wifi otherwise it will not load the pages. I only have my ipad a month now and its been like it from the first day.Any solutions to this problem?

    mhmediaonline I had tried that before but it didn't change anything. About two days I went to a cafeteria and I couldn't connect to the wifi but two friends who also have iPads connected without a problem. I also noticed yesterday that it took a whole day for the wifi to get stuck and that I didn't have to turn off and on the wifi,I just pressed Renew Lease and the wifi was ok. Have any other iPad users encountered the same problem? Any other suggestions?

  • I have a macbook pro 15 retina - when ever I connect to bluetooth speaker, I get this loud noise coming from the speaker - if I turn bluetooth off, the noise is now coming from the macbook speakers

    I have a macbook pro 15 retina - when ever I connect to bluetooth speaker, I get this loud noise coming from the speaker - if I turn bluetooth off, the noise is now coming from the macbook speakers & stays until i restart.

    Hi John. Thanks for that input. At Step 6, after clicking "Next" I get a window telling me my OS version is unsupported and the installation may not complete. I am prompted to go to Canon's web site to "Check Latest Info".
    I've had this window on previous attempts and from Canon's web site I downloaded two drivers as follows
    - ICA Driver V4.0.0
    - Canon IJ Network Tool V4.5.0
    I'm not sure if these are the correct / complete drivers I need for this install or not.
    I continue to follow all the steps. At step 9 I click "Wireless Set Up using USB" amd get a License Agreement (a little different than instructions)
    I click "Agree" and it goes to a Setup window with two progress bars showing the installation. I've not been prompted to connect the USB?
    After the Setup window is done, I am then prompted to connect the printer via USB. I connect the printer and click on "Redetect". It is not detected.
    I then try following the Canon on screen instructions for connecting to the wireless LAN amd enter the password. It searches and indicates "Connecting" on the window, but it never connects and the blue light just blinks
    So, at this point I am stuck??
    Thanks

  • Can't turn bluetooth off, unspecified network in my computer.

    Why can't I turn my computer bluetooth off? And why is there an unspecified network in my computer? And why do the bluetooth file exchange automatically opens at the same time when all the above happens? Why do I have to reformat my computer and import CDs once every few months?can

    When you go to "System Preferences">"Bluetooth" and uncheck the "On" box does it come back on? Or if your bluetooth symbol is in the "Menu Bar" you can click the "Turn Bluetooth Off" in there.
    Check in "System Preferences">"Sharing". Do you have any of the sharing boxes cheked? Your MacBook will search for any computer within range and put it in the sidebar of the "Finder" window. Is this what you mean?
    Why do you have to reformat your computer and import CDs once every few months? What is going wrong that you have to do that?
    And why are you at 10.6.1? Are you not doing Software Updates?

  • How can I turn bluetooth off via terminal or applescript?

    I want to write a short little script that when launched will shut off my bluetooth, I do not need to have the script turn the bluetooth back on. ONLY TURN BLUETOOTH off.
    I really hope there is a way to do this, is there?

    Try posting in the Mac OS X Technologies/AppleScript forum area.

  • "Turn Bluetooth On" with a keyboard shortcut

    Does anyone know how to set a keyboard shortcut to "Turn Bluetooth On"?
    I've looked in the keyboard shortcuts menu, and all I can do is add a keyboard shortcut to an application, but I don't know which application or command I need to set a keyboard shortcut to.
    Thanks

    I just emailed Dan, and asked him how he made shortcuts to menu items. He replied:
    "It evidently varies by menu; some of the "Menu Extra" menus -- those on the
    right-hand side of the menu bar -- let you assign shortcuts, whereas others
    don't. Even when they do, I've discovered that the keyboard shortcut doesn't
    always work. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news! The alternative is a bit
    trickier: Creating AppleScripts for such purposes and then using a
    third-party utility to assign those scripts to keyboard shortcuts."
    I have had good luck using automator to follow my actions, in turning on and off the airport from the menu bar. One problem I found was Automator recognised me clicking the Airport icon, moving down the dropdown menu, but it would not recognise me clicking "Turn AirPort Off". So I had to click on airport icon, then use arrow keys, and Enter key, to select "Turn Airport Off". Then simply make an "application" for this action in Automator, and use some third party app to make a short cut to the automator-created app. I'm going to try out using Spark :http://www.shadowlab.org/Software/spark.php, but you could probably use Quicksilver too.

  • Is there a code to turn bluetooth on?

    Hi,
    I have Nokia 7610 and the 5 navigational keys have suddenly stopped working, leaving me unable to reach most of the functions, and I think the problem is in the software because all other keys are fine.
    I am trying to backup the phone memory in order to make a  hard reset, but it cant be done because of the impaired navigation.
    Do you know any code or key sequence to turn bluetooth on so that I can connect my computer to the phone and backup my files.
    Thanks
    Anas

    If the Keys are not functional.. whats the use of asking the Key Sequence ? Why don't you try the USB instead.. Max it may require a SINGLE click to select the PC Suite mode thats normally highlighted by default...

  • HT3887 I am trying to  pair my iphone 4 to my 2011 Kluger KX-R.  I have turned bluetooth on my phone but it keeps searching for devices and can not find any.  My computer can find my phone but my phone can not find my computer.

    I am trying to pair my phone to my 2011 Toyota kluger KX-R.  I have turned bluetooth on my phone but it keeps searching for devices and can not find any, including my computer.

    No worries. Often after iTunes updates you have to reconnect your device in order for iTunes to see it. Happens to me all the time!

  • Why turn on background rendering?

    So I have a 16gb ram macbook pro retina. I am editing native avchd 720p video in my timeline. This computer will pretty much play back anything with no hickups, even if it needs to be rendered. My question is, if in the end I am going to DVD, why does FCP even need to render if it isn't rendering to mpeg2 format? Is there any reason I wouldn't want to turn off background rendering since I want to export to MPEG2? Thanks!

    If you computer is fast enough for realtime playback without rendering you don't need to render before exporting.

  • Distributed rendering via wifi

    Could I setup distributed rendering via wifi: combining a 3.4 iMac 27inch and a Mac Pro 2.26 8-core?

    No, counterproductive. You would slow the process down, wasting time sending and receiving frames between the machines.
    I'll second that.  I've tried over WiFi and wired, (not gigabit) and it doesn't speed it up.  Too much time wasted sending and receiving data.  I do better setting up a quickcluster in Compressor, using the multi-cores to do the final rendering to the desired format.

  • Turning Bluetooth on and off w/o Access Connection​s Vista Ultimate/T​61p

    This might be a very noob type question but I haven't been able to find an answer...  I've gotten rid of Access Connections because of how much it bogged down my system.  In fact, the only programs i'm running now from Lenovo is the fingerprint reader and Active Protection.
    Problem is, how do you turn bluetooth on and off in vista alone?  

    Have you tried Fn-F5?
