Unable to use WAP Transitional with a MacBook Pro

I have a new Airport Extreme which I have configured as a bridge from my DSL modem (which supports NAT, a firewall and all that). I have been able to use it with my MacBook Pro when I have an open, unencrypted network, but when I turn on WAP I can no longer connect to the internet, or even to my cable modem for that matter.
I have been playing with all the various options with Airport Utility (and have done the firmware upgrade on the Airport Extreme). I've tried automatic channel allocation, and setting channel 3, 11, and so on. I've tried having the AE use DHCP to get its own IP address (which works) and assigning an IP on my local network, but neither will let my machine get through to the DHCP server!
My configuration is right out of the manual, but I have tried plugging in the internet connection to the LAN and WAN ports, just to be safe.
Needless to say, the Airport Extreme light is green and according to the status in the Airport Utility, everything is good to go. Except, that it isn't.
I also notice that I cannot connect to the Airport Extreme with an older 802.11b card, so it looks like WEP/WAP is still in the future, unless someone has a few hints on how to use this box.

I would like to delete the question. It is being posed under another account. Unfortunately, question deletion and forum alias change are unimplemented features.

  • I can not use CanoScan N670U with my Macbook pro. I download canoscan toolbox 4.1 from Cannon website. It keep saying "the scanner plug-in was not found". Please help

    I can not use CanaScan N670U with my Macbook Pro. I download Canoscan toolbox 4.1 from Cannon websit. It still keep saying "The scanner plug-in was not found". Please help

    There is a solution (I'm running Snow Leopard on a Core2Duo iMac, but this problem arose when I was running Leopard on a G4 PowerBook too).
    Problem:
    You download the OS X driver for the scanner from Canon's site. I already had the CanoScan Toolbox (4.1) stored on an external drive.
    You unzip the driver and run the VISE installer. After a search it finds your copy of Photoshop (and maybe even the CanoScan Toolbox), and you click to install on that/those location(s).
    You get a couple of error messages, which you click through.
    You restart your computer and try to run the scanner but you get an error that the driver is wrong or missing and the process will abort.
    Solution:
    BEFORE you restart, and with the installer package still open -
    1. Copy the Into_CFMSupport_Login & Into_CMPrefs folders to
    Applications : Canon Utilities
    Applications : Canoscan Toolbox
    and remove the prefix Into_ from each folder
    2. Check whether the installer placed N067U_Library.shlb into the top level (not User level)
    Library : CFMSupport
    and if it didn't, move it there yourself
    THEN restart, and try again. It worked for me (via Photoshop), but whether it will work for everyone, I don't know.

    can i use air play with my macbook pro and apple tv

    AirPlay Mirroring requires a second-generation Apple TV or later, OS X 10.8 or better and is supported on the following Mac models: iMac (Mid 2011 or newer), Mac mini (Mid 2011 or newer), MacBook Air (Mid 2011 or newer), and MacBook Pro (Early 2011 or newer). It also requires the computer to be using wi-fi.

  • Can I use Bluetooth earphones with my Macbook Pro?

    Can I use Bluetooth earphones with my Macbook Pro?
    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)?
    And, just out of curiosity, why can't you use the Bluetooth earphones on an airplane?

  • I'm using Logic 9 with a Macbook Pro. On one project I'm getting a message ' not enough processor power.' I've tried freezing all tracks but this seems to have no effect. I've also bounced all soft synths to audio.

    I'm using Logic 9 with a Macbook Pro. On one project I'm getting a message 'not enough processor power' and the computer stops playing
    I've tried freezing all tracks but this has no effect. I've also bounced all soft synth tracks to audio, but to no avail. The computer stops playing
    even at the start of the track where there is nothing but a kick drum happening.......

    Thank you for the suggestions.
    I had previously tried all of the above but the airport/wireless thought. Unfortuneately, none of these things made a difference, including the wireless suggestion.
    Currently, I am using my Mac's "cheapo" internal audio hardware  (haha). I have a one year old 27-inch iMac,  a good pair of bose speakers, and a polk sub. I don't believe it is an issue with my setup, considering I completely disconnected and unplugged it.
    I did, however, do a little info hunting on the internal audio situation, since I was curious what is actually included, and I stumbled upon this interesting little tidbit about my model of iMac:
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/2718054?start=0&tstart=0
    I had previously wondered if I was hearing my mouse in my speakers as well (not just in logic). It appears that this model of iMac may have some grounding issues, as someone later in the thread suggested purchasing and using a ground loop isolator, which seemed to fix any extra interference for them.
    Ironically though, I have since opened logic, and do not seem to be encountering my previous static issue(yet).
    Fingers crossed, hoping that I will not be experiencing it again. Going to purchase a ground loop isolator, and continue to mess around with logic, just to make sure it was not just an internal audio issue with my iMac.

  • Using Windows 8 with my macbook pro

    Hello,
    I currently have a problem to install Windows 8.
    Last week, I bought a Windows' 8 license.
    The configuration of my macbook pro is the following :
    - i7 2,3 Ghz (four cores)
    - 8 Gb of RAM
    - A 256 Go SSD
    - A 750 Go Hybrid-disc
    - OS X 10.8.2
    So I removed the Superdrive but I bought an ASUS external USB disc-drive (witch works with OS X)
    I inserted the Windows 64 bits disc in the USB drive and I created a 50 Go partition for Windows on the SSD (FAT) with Bootcamp.
    After this process, my macbook reboot but it bloked on the PC's shell interface without message, just the cursor (Right-Top).
    I tried to reboot many times and to use the 32 bits disc but it is alredy the same.
    I also tried to boot using the "C" key, the CD boot, i can see the fourth blue square on the screen, and durind 2 or 3 second the charging animation but after it says that there is an error (new blue screen very very quickly), or a black screen with somes information like "Error 00000050x0...".
    However, I tried the alt key. 2 solutions :
    - "Windows 8", it is like the first situation (black screen with sursor)
    - "EFI boot" (it appeared once), the computer boot on the CD, I can acces to menus and tell the name of the hard disc I want for the installation. But when I want to continue, a window appear with a EFI problem and he says to reboot with a different configuration (but I am not sur).
    What can I do to install windows 8 on my macbook pro ?
    I need it for Solidworks...
    Thank you for your answers.

  • Problem using clamshell mode with 2010 Macbook Pro

    I'm trying to use my mid 2010 Macbook Pro in clamshell mode with my Sanyo TV as a monitor. I have an external keyboard and mouse and I keep it plugged in when trying to do this. I have tried with mirrored and seperate displays, both with the TV as secondary and primary display, and whenever I close the lid the TV suddenly says that the input resolution has changed and is out of the range of the TV. I have tried changing the resolution on both the TV and computer when both displays are active and it has made no difference. Is there a way to make this work or a way to keep the computer from changing the output resolution when I close the lid?

    I have discovered that the issue is that the computer won't wake from sleep mode. I still have no idea what the problem is but it also occurs if I put the computer to sleep with the display open.

    Follow the very. very simple instructions that came with the AppleTV.
    Plug AppleTV in
    Connect it to your TV.
    Turn on AppleTV.
    Launch iTunes on your computer and enable Home Sharing.
    Settings > Computers and turn on Home Sharing. Use the same  AppleID as you use in iTunes on your computer.

  • Can I use 4K monitor with my MacBook Pro Non-retina?

    I am considering to use 4k monitor for my MacBook. I have mid-2012 15" MacBook Pro. But I'm afraid that it will not perform as good as standard hd monitor. I'm wondering if any of you have tried using 4k monitor for your MacBook. Thank you.

    Won't work - at least not with 4K resolution.
    Supposedly, the late 2013 retina machines with the NVIDIA GeForce GT 750M with 2GB GDDR5 memory will run 4K resolutions - but only in Windows 8, NOT in any version of OS X, yet.
    So you'll just have to buy a new Mac Pro or wait until Apple comes out with an OS that supports running 4K on a new MacBook Pro Retina and buy that.

  • Using Time Capsule with multiple Macbook Pro accounts

    I have had a 500 GB Time Capsule for a number of years, using it both as a router and hard drive.  I recently added a 2TB Time Capsule, which I plan to use exclusively for storage and the 500 GB Time Capsule for the router and to store the Time Machine backups.  When I only had the 500GB Time Capsule, I could switch between users on my Macbook Pro and still have access to the data that was stored on the Time Capsule without having to log the original user out.  I am finding that with the 2TB Time Capsule, that if I switch users not only do I have to log out the orginal user, but I also have to disconnect that user from the Time Capsule.  Is there anyway to setup the Time Capsule where I will not have to do this, as it is very tedious and time consuming.
    Thanks in advance.

    In the 5.6 utility there is an option to disconnect all users.. this should fix it in one go.
    Download and install the 5.6 utility.. it has far superior controls to 6.0 which is more a NOUN utility than VERB.
    A number of issues were introduced with Lion and 7.6 firmware on the TC..
    You can try going back to 7.5.2 firmware although the later Gen4 TC seem to not allow themselves to go back earlier than 7.6.
    The older and simpler TC.. might be better as a file store.. Open it up and put a 2TB disk in it.
    At least if that works.. well may as well use it.

  • How do you use multiple displays with a MacBook Pro and iMac

    I have an iMac and a MacbookPro laptop both upgraded to OS X 10.9 (Mavericks).  I'd like to use multiple displays with them.  Can I do this without an Apple TV?  They are both on the same network.  If I can, can someone please give some instructions on how this can be done?
    Thanks!

    Both computers have ports for external monitors. Check your user manuals. Only one display can be added to the MBP, but newer iMacs have dual Thunderbolt ports.
    Do your own Google research to learn what to do, but reading your manuals should be all you really need. It' not rocket science yet.

  • Can I use TV only with my MacBook Pro, or I need a TV?

    I have an Apple 30" Cinema Display and a MacBook Pro, so I don't have a TV.
    Can I use TV directly on my computer without a TV (HOW?), or it doesn't work without a TV?

    You can't get much more direct than using the computer itself.
    Your MBP can mirror its display to your ACD and use front row. While this isn't quite as convenient as the tv it is not far from the same.
    Why would you send a picture from your MBP to an tv only to have it sent back again. The tv (I don't think) would be anywhere near powerful enough to power a 30" ACD.

    How are you connecting it? I don't know that you might not need an app for it to be recognized on a Mac... iPads are easy... other tablets, not so simple.
    I assume that it will connect to your router via wifi... have you tried to discover it on your network from your Mac (as you can do with a PC)?

  • Help using time machine with a macbook pro

    Can you force a backup to time machine? I have a laptop & it is not always connected to the external hard drive or not always on. I want to just backup every day or so at my convenience. whenever I connect it now it does not even show a scheduled time to backup.

    Click on the Dock's Time Machine icon and select Back Up Now.
    Make sure your Mag Safe is connected otherwise TM will not perform any backups.
