    Every list of compatible devices I've seen, has my MBP listed, but neither device acknowledges the other.
    Anyone have ideas as to what might be the problem?
    Yes, your 2010 Macbook Pro doesn’t have a Bluetooth 4.0 module in it. They came on the market in 2011.
    Here is the relevant part that you didn’t see from the OS X Yosemite Upgrade page:
    AirDrop between Mac computers and iOS devices is supported by the following Mac models:
    MacBook Air (2012 or newer)
    MacBook Pro (2012 or newer)
    iMac (2012 or newer)
    Mac mini (2012 or newer)
    Mac Pro (Late 2013)

    Right now the best thing to do is be patient. The last six days many people have been reporting problems with FaceTime. The source of the problems remains unknown.

  • How can you sync safari bookmarks between iphone 5 and ipad mini retina? IOS 7.1.2

    The syncing works between my iMac and iPhone on one hand and between iMac and iPad on the other. I'm using IOS 7.1.2. I made sure iCloud is on on IOS devices, same iCloud account, made sure there is no problem with the WiFi...I appreciate any help I can get. thanx

    Finally I got a solution from an Apple guy today. First we did the following steps on an iPad and then on iPhone.
    Basically, it comes down to this:
    general/restore/ erase all content and settings
    set up the iPhone/iPad as a new device
    type your iCloud account info
    once everything is up and running, wait for a while and first check on contacts, calendars, notes if it's syncing with the iCloud, then open safari and look for the other device. In my case it worked and iPad finally detected iPhone and I could see the safari tabs from the iPhone on the iPad.
    But then, Iphone still couldn't detect the iPad, so the guy said the original problem was probably in iPhone. And so we did the whole thing again on iPhone and then I finally had my tabs from all devices visible on every device.
    Thanks for your help anyway.

  • How do you sync itunes between a MacBook and ipad mini with different operating systems ?

    I own a Macbook with OS X 10.5.8 operating system, and have recently bought an ipad mini but I cant sync itunes because it operates on the 10.6.8 system, is ther an upgrade for the Macbook, or is there another way of syncing the two ?

    You need to be running Snow Leopard 10.6.8 to sync with your iPad.
    Start by checking if you can run Snow Leopard:
    Requirements for OS X 10.6 'Snow Leopard'
    http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575
    The OS 10.6 Snow Leopard install DVD is available for $19.99 from the Apple Store:
    http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
    and in the UK:
    http://store.apple.com/uk/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
    When you have installed it, run Software Update to download and install the latest updates for Snow Leopard to bring it up to 10.6.8, or download the combo update from here:

    Check via Software Update whether further updates are required.

  • Sharing internet between Macbook Pro and iPad mini

    My Macbook pro is connected to a wireless internet hotspot which i pay weekly for, called bizportal. I then have this connected to a Wifi Router. Ive recently purchased an Ipad Mini and would like to connect this to the hotspot too. Ive clicked the internet sharing option in system preferences on my Macbook, but then I look on my Ipad and my Macbook Pro doesnt seem to come up in Wifi options, What can I do now?

    You cannot connect the iPad directly to the hotspot? I know nothing about your particular hotspot but I can connect up to 5 devices with the Verizon MIFI2200 that I use. I have connected 3 devices successfully at one time but have never had to try more than that.

  • Transferring app between my iPhone and iPad mini?

    I just bought the new iPad mini w/ retina, and it's awesome.  I have an app on my iPhone 5 called "The Oxford Dictionary of the Classical World" and I use it constantly.  I want it on my new Ipad, but it dosen't seem to be available in the app store any longer.  Can I transfer it from my phone somehow?

    Dear JMRT,
    thanks for the respond, however, this is the way I would do it if i would have purchased on my iphone/ipad first and would like to have it on my Mac. but in my case I bought it on the MAC first and would now like to have it on iphone.
    It works with most of the other apps, but those two no, although they are also made for iphone/ipda.
    So the question is how to getit from Mac to phone?
    Cheers

  • Help, can't delete song from iTunes on my iPad mini.Swiping doesn't work

    When I swipe a song to delete from iTunes on my iPad mini, nothing happens. How do I get these songs off?

    How do the songs show in the Music app ? If they have the cloud icon against them then they are in the cloud - you can turn off the showing of cloud music via Settings > iTunes & App Store > Music (under 'show all') 'off'
    If they don't have the cloud icon then are you swiping/dragging across the songs from right-to-left - that should reveal a Delete button to the song's right.
    Or if you have iOS 8 you should be able to delete songs / albums / artists (or all music)via Settings > General > Usage > Manage Storage (under the 'storage' heading) > Music, you should have an Edit button at the top right of that screen.

  • I want to  use iCloud  between iMac, iPhone and iPad

    On the iPad and iPhone tap Settings > iCloud
    Switch Documents & Data off then back on the reset the devices.
    Hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home button down at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

  • I want to sell my iMac G4 and the install disk doesn't work. What do I do?

    I want to sell or give away my iMac G4 but the install disk won't run. I've formatted the drive and installed Panther from disks I bought when it first came out. I've installed them it to the point at which the animation comes up and you are asked to personalise the machine and create an account. I thought I'd leave that for the new owner so that it is truly his machine. What happens when he connects to the internet and it asks him to register with Apple? Can he use the OS if he hasn't got my Apple ID?
    Or is there another way round this?
    It's a lovely old machine and I would like to see it continuing to be used rather than going to landfill.

    Thanks Klaus,
    It's a long time since I installed a new OS but I thought you had to go through registration before it would work. You certainly have to supply your name and address, and then it prompts you to register. Will it let you skip that step?
    If the new owner can do that, why would he need the install disks? And how do I get through to the right person at Apple?

  • HT1692 Syncing calendar between laptop and iPad mini

    I can't sync my calendar between my laptop and iPad mini. I don't want to use iCloud, especially as when I tried it, all my entries were duplicated, which took up the whole calendar. Other apps will sync, but the calendars refuse. What can I do?

    YOu can sync via iTUnes and not use iCloud. When you connect your iPad to your computer  look for the 'info' tab. Then when you scroll down you should see the option to sync your calendar. Tap on that and sync and you can sync your calendar without messing with iCloud.
    Alternatively, its not quite syncing, but you can export your calendar from the calendar program, e--mail it to yourself, open that mail on your device and then save your calendar info from there.
    I've had to do it both of those ways because I export my work calendar and can't sync with my work computer, also when I upgraded to windows 8.1, iCloud wasn't compatible for about a month or two so I would have had a blank calendar for that time.

  • Home sharing between itunes (11.0.5) on imac and ipad mini

    I activated home sharing to play my itunes music library on my ipod but i have a number of issues when using app music on my ipod:
    1. when selecting artists i can only see 4 of them, while there are many more in my imac library
    2. if i select the menu "album" on the music app on ipad mini i can see many but not all of them
    3. ordering of album by artist does not work: the ordering is random....sure not alphabetic
    4. often after palying one or two songs (located on the imac) on the ipad mini everything stops
    is it the app music (called "musica" on my italian version of ipad) that is not working well or is there some problem with the homesharing setup or, again, is itunes that is creating the problem?
    going through the troubleshooting steps suggested by apple.com did not work.

    Hello marco169,
    You may need to recreate your iTunes Library database, as there could be inconsistencies in the database causing inconsitencies.
