Sometimes it’s practical for the same person to setup multiple accounts on one machine for distinct purposes.
GEEKTOOL EL CAPITAN BLUETOOTH
Updated : I suspect there’s a bug related to using Boot Camp that requires resetting the SMC to get Bluetooth devices working again.
Sure enough, that immediately solved my problem and now I’m back to unlocking my system using my Apple Watch. I finally found the solution in a suggestion from someone on Mac Rumors to sign out of iCloud via System Preferences in macOS and then sign back in. Toggling the Handoff settings on the phone and the watch, toggling the “Allow your Apple Watch to unlock your Mac”, and any other settings I could find that were even remotely related, including the Wrist Detection, did nothing to solve the problem.
GEEKTOOL EL CAPITAN PRO
I was unable to unlock my MacBook Pro using my Apple Watch. I’m not positive this is what caused it but the timing seems to be more than just coincidental. Specifically, I reset the Bluetooth config and then reset the SMC. I suspect some troubleshooting steps to get my Magic Mouse 2 working again caused the issue. I suddenly found myself dealing with a frustrating problem this week. I haven’t tested this on previous versions of macOS (only Mojave), though if the rest of the commands work, the script might function by simply removing the statement that generates a notification. If it detects both, it will shutdown the WiFi interface and display a notification, via macOS notifications, that it has done this. This script will check for both an active WiFi connection and also an active Ethernet connection. It may be possible to manage locations and some additional tools, but I didn’t want something that required retooling every time I used my system in a new location, so I decided to write a simple script, using built-in tools for everything except the execution of the script. It’s a simple thing that can cause several problems, especially if you are in an environment where you may need to authenticate to a network or access VPN services.
I don’t know why, but macOS doesn’t seem to have an automatic ability to shut down the WiFi adapter when an Ethernet connection is detected.
