Acer Aspire S3 Wireless Drivers For Mac
Tagged: 5.2013 update, thanks to abheek pandita, i have update the drivers for Acer Aspire 5742. Acer Aspire 5742 / 5742G / 5742Z / 5742ZG Laptops come with Windows 7, see more.
Hi together, after many sleepless nights i managed to get installed MacOS 10.7.2 on my notebook. But i still have 2 problems: I cannot get my wireless Atheros AR5BWB225 with the AR9285 and / or AR9287 drivers working.
If i use the Atheros fix it always ends up in a kernel panic, so that have to restart in safe mode (-x) and replace with the original AR92xx kexts, i did choosen and installed before, for can boot up in normal mode again. EDIT found now with Ubuntu lspci command, that the Network card is an AR9485, but still need a solution.
My second problem is related to the Bluetooth: The Bluetooth is showing and i can switch it on and off so that i can search for devices. But still cannot detect any device, like e.g. My mobile phone or Bluetooth Headset. Every help for could solve this issues would be very appreciated. Thank you all in advance very much. Hi samui67 I too got my Acer S3 running well on Lion 10.7.2 (full QE/CI) I noticed you said you had only 2 problems. Wifi and bluetooth.
Free nexus plugin for mac. What about Sound. I could not get mine to work with Voodoohda.kext. It shows the sound control on the top menu and i can adjust the volume but no sound actually comes out of the speakers What did you use for sound?? There is also no brightness control on my machine and the fan is constantly running.
It heats up quite a bit after prolonged use. I resolved my wifi problem by using an ASUS N-10 usb wifi dongle (it's way small) and when attached to the back port of the S1.
You dont even notice it. Let me know if you see this message. Hi together, after many sleepless nights i managed to get installed MacOS 10.7.2 on my notebook.

Thank you all in advance very much. Hi bd4utonite2, i am booting with Chameleon Bootloader in a Dual System from my Windows 7 Partition.
I used the basic 'Chameleon Install 1664' Windows installer and replaced the wowpc.iso with the wowpc.iso 'Chameleon2.1svnr1700trunkSNBHD'. If this Kext File is not working for you, there are also some others, you can download there. About the WLAN: Today i bought a much smaller and i guess also cheaper one from D-Link, which also has support for MAC. About the Bluetooth: I bought a cheap Bluetooth USB Dongle nearly similar small size. So this is finally also working for me. Best regards.
It is definitely the boot loader then for sound that is. My rational is.
I upgraded to Chimera 1.6 from 1.4.x (1.5 does not give me qe/ci) Once in Chimera 1.6, Bluetooth was automatically detected and is working. It was not in Chimera 1.4 I have a dual boot Acer S3 core i5 with win7 ultimate. I voided my warranty by swapping out the slowwwwwwwwwwww 320gb hitachi drive for a 160gb Intel 320 series SSD. Be sure your ssd is 7.5mm thin. Standard ssd are normally 9.5 Just a tip for you if you decided to go my way cheers.
