    Unfortunately, you can't.  The iphone does not have the protocol for Bluetooth file sharing and so forth, between one iphone and another.

  • Can I sync one iPhone via two computers (MacBook and Windows XP) using iTunes?

    My idea is the following:
    Sync one iPhone using iTunes installed on two computers:
    from Windows XP:
    * Outlook 2010 contacts
    * Outlook 2010 calendar
    * music
    from MacBook:
    * contacts
    OR
    from Windows XP:
    * Outlook 2010 contacts
    * Outlook 2010 calendar
    from MacBook:
    * contacts
    * music
    Can I do this?
    How would I have to do the set-up?
    Additional question: Can I buy apps from iTunes App Store on either of the two computers and having them downloaded automatically on the iPhone?

    You can't. You can only sync with one library at a time. I is possible, though not recommended, to sync contacts with one computer and media with another. There is no way to sync contacts with more than one computer.
    The best idea would be to sync it with your MacBook and the cloud, and sync Outlook on the PC with the cloud.
    Since iCloud requires Windows 7, you would probably be best to sync contacts and calendars with Google or Yahoo.

  • How can you sync your contacts via bluetooth to a sony in car media centre

    i need help, does anyone know how to bluetooth your contacts to a in car media centre with iphone 4?

    If syncing contacts from a Cloud service or a supported application on the computer, remove the groups there.
    There is no functionality for the user to initiate sending contacts in iOS.  If the head unit support PBAP, the contacts sync automatically when connecting to the head unit.

    You can't syncing your iPhone via blutooth. BT is only for hands-free and tethering. You can sync via cable or wi-fi.only.

    I haven't tried it yet, but I believe this would disconnect Bluetooth for both the phone and music. I have a 2013 Hyundai Sonata if this will help.

  • Can I Sync my Iphone/Ipad with Bluetooth?

    Can I Sync my Iphone 4 with my MacBook Pro?

    You can't sync an iPhone with an iPad. There is no device limit for the number of iPods, iPads, and iPhones that can be synced with the same iTunes library and iTunes account on the same computer. Each device has its own sync preferences with iTunes. Unless there is a 3rd party app that allows for placing and receiving calls via the internet that is compatible with the iPad, you can't use an iPad as a phone.

  • TS1627 All of a sudden, I can't sync my Iphone with Outlook. The phone just says "no calendar"

    All of a sudden, I can't sync my IPhone with Outlook. The calendar on the phone is now blank.

    Similar problem.
    No problem with the imac G5 but tower Power PC allows only the initial sync (ie after erasing all contacts and events in my phone and reseting device in bluetooth syst pref and in isync).
    For the following syncings I always get the same message.
    [K800i] Connection to the phone failed.
    Please make sure that your phone is turned on. If this error occurs again, please restart your phone.
    Restarting my phone does not help.
    Anyone an idea?

  • Can I sync my iPhone calendar with exchange server AND ical on my mac ?

    I have been happily using my iPhone synced with my Macbook over usb via iTunes.
    I have contacts and iCal syncing. I have a number of 'calendars' set up in iCal which allow me to view separate aspects of home and work but they all exist within iCal. iPhone just treats these as colour coded appointments (different colour for each ical calendar)
    I really like this set up.
    However, I just changed jobs to a firm where they have a hosted outlook exchange set up and I need to use the exchange calendar for work appointments and showing my availability.
    I have managed to setup my iPhone to work with the Exchange server for email as well as in apple Mail on my mac. This has all worked fine. However, I hesitated when iPhone asked if i wanted to sync my contacts and calendar. I said no as I was unsure if my private calendar/contacts would be uploaded to the public work area.
    In fact it seems that this is the least of my worries:
    As I have read on apple support for iPhone:
    "Note that after configuring an Exchange ActiveSync account, all existing contact and calendar information on the iPhone or iPod touch is overwritten. Additionally, iTunes no longer syncs contacts and calendars with your desktop computer. You can still sync your iPhone or iPod touch wirelessly with MobileMe services."
    So I am really pleased that I didn't let it sync those and wipe out my personal data if that is really true.
    But now I am unsure how best to enable myself to view and update the work calendar on exchange.
    Also it would be nice to see work contacts on my iPhone.
    Contacts
    - although i have said no to sync contacts with Exchange in fact it looks like I can get contacts ok - when i send email from the Exchange account on the phone , it searches Exchange contacts on the server as i type in the TO box.
    - also in Contacts on the iPhone I have a new group that has been created with the name of my Exchange account. The group appears to be blank when you go into it on the phone, but you can type in the search box and get contact details from the server just fine.
    This seems workable for now for my purposes, although updating contacts is not going to be possible that way.
    I'd like more info on that if poss but more importantly..
    Calendar
    - Unlike Contacts, no Calendar has been auto created for Exchange
    - Unlike contacts, I can't see how I can view or search or create an appointment in my Exchange calendar on the iPhone
    What is the best solution to this problem - I presume lots of people face the same dilemma. My initial research suggests that there are multiple ways round this but all of them look like workarounds with various disavantages.
    Questions are
    - Can't I just set up Exchange as one of my calendars in ical?
    - Is it really true that I have to choose between syncing Exchange with work server OR syncing iCal with personal Macbook?
    - What is the best work around for this?
    At the moment I am seriously considering getting a separate iPhone for work and have that sync with Exchange fully although that seems a bit drastic and does not solve the problem of seeing work and home appointments on the same calendar.

    Can't I just set up Exchange as one of my calendars in ical?
    Only if you're running Snow Leopard and your employer will allow access (different than iPhone/mobile device access, so most likely not), but not needed - keep reading.
    Is it really true that I have to choose between syncing Exchange with work server OR syncing iCal with personal Macbook?
    No. It was true, but with the v3.0 software that changed - you can now sync your Exchange contacts and calendar over the air, and your Address Book and iCal via iTunes over the docking cable.
    What is the best work around for this?
    None needed. When you set up the exchange account, and choose to turn on syncing of contacts and calendars, you will be prompted to remove all other data, or keep it on the iPhone. Choose the keep option. Note that in that case, your personal data will not be uploaded to the Exchange server - the iPhone keeps them separate (although you can choose to view them in a merged fashion).
    I have this set up on my phone (Exchange calendar along side personal and other calendars from iCal). Same for contacts. Works great.
