Hack a mac with only mac Adress - RakotoTsiry - Feb 16, 2013

Hi,
This is my first post on a forum like this.

I'll try to be as clear as possible, my question is simple :

Is there any solution to take over a MacBook Air (1304) only with his Mac Adress.

Let me explain a bit, my MacBook doesn't respond anymore, it gets freeze on the screen, no trackpad, no logic board ...
And there's also nothing that work as Reset Pram , Boot from USB et caetera!

The only things that works is reset SMC (Cmd+Shift+ctrl+option).

I think my mac crash due to a conflict between my Iphone 3G and my Macbook Air.

i know, this is a bit "strange" to explain but, i'm sure that my mother board is physically working !

Thnaks for answering !

Ps: I'm french, so sorry if i made grammatical or conjugation mistake !
Pps: I have my mac address because it is written on the carton (?) ... i also have bluetooth address

Any idea, or maybe my question is to difficult?

Anyway, i guess that i can't no more access to my Macbook Air on SSH's way ?

Ps: My aim is to have an access to the terminal.

You can crack a wifi with mac only, but this sounds like a hardware issue. Maybe a bad man-in-the middle attack. Can you expand and provide more information to go on.

If you have physical access to it, why would you need to remotely login to it?

As long as it works (boots up correctly, etc) and you have a second Mac, you could simply use a firewire cable and access it that way.
Otherwise this seems like a job for an apple store.
