IPhone and macbook cursor issue?

I noticed that about the same time I got my iPhone that I started having issues with the cursor on my macbook. Every so often, the cursor would start scrolling to the right all by itself, even when I was nowhere near the track pad.
I thought my trackpad might be going bad, but then I noticed that sometimes when this happened I was also getting some GSM speaker buzz at the same time. Just a little while ago, my cursor started shaking and scrolling to the right and when I pulled my iPhone off my desk the cursor stopped.
Could this possibly be some kind of shielding issue? I saw one or two other people post about bizarre mouse behavior when the iPhone was docked but this happens when my iPhone is undocked on my desk next to my laptop. Hopefully everyone doesn't think I am imagining things...
Any help or thoughts would be appreciated.

I was having the exact same problem. Connect iPhone 3g and Canon CameraWindow would open with a notification that no camera was attached.
I found a setting in ImageCapture which controls what happens when you connect a camera. In the preferences menu, just select none. Problem fixed.

How can I safe my data back from the Time capsule to iphone and macbook?

Hi,
last weekend we were robbed while being on vacation and iphones and macbook air got stolen. Good thing was that at home we had a time capsule and our normal macbook. As soon as we get the new iphones and the new airbook we want to get our itunes and apps and datas back to the iphones and airbook ... can somebody tell us how to re-safe or back-safe stuff from the time capsule back to the equipment?
Thank you ... I feel so "naked" without my phone :-(

Sorry about your loss. Follow the directions here to use Time Capsule to restore your new Air to the state your old Air was in when stolen. When you first connect your new phones, you'll be given the option of restoring from the backup of your old phones or setting up as new. Restore from your previous backups, followed by syncing your content back to your phones. You should be good to go. Maintaining current backups makes this a piece of cake.

Only one of my earbuds on my bose headphones works with my ipad, iphone and macbook- if I hold them there the right earbud will work, but for the life of me, I can't get them to both work. Why is this? And is Apple doing anything about this?

Only one of my earbuds on my bose headphones works with my ipad, iphone and macbook- if I hold them there the right earbud will work, but for the life of me, I can't get them to both work. Why is this? And is Apple doing anything about this? While Apple's headphones have (finally) admittedly gotten better of late, I still prefer the much more comfortable headphones & sound quality that Bose makes and that I spent the money for.

Looking for a Dictation App for my Iphone and MacBook Pro. Want to send all dictation to Word. I have Dragon. Should I purchase Dragon Premium or Dragon for Mac?

I have Dragon. Should I purchase Dragon Premium or Dragon for Mac?

Care to share which OS you are using?
OS has its own dictation program.
Should I purchase Dragon Premium or Dragon for Mac?
Only you can make that determination. Read the system requirements for both and read the reviews.

Time capsule only allows 2 devices at a time as a router. If I am using the iphone and macbook pro, it bumps the roku offline. Any suggestions?

At a guess you have cable internet connection.. please confirm exactly what you have.. two public IPs are allowed by some ISP.. once you use up the two IPs, there are no more..
Make sure the TC is in router mode. And to get it working you probably need to shut off the cable modem.. if it has battery backup remove the battery.. try 5min off .. if not long enough try 20min off. then overnight. The ISP equipment must reset to allow a new MAC address to capture the IP.
If you cannot work it out.. plug in the old router again.. and set the TC to bridge mode.. which I suspect it is in now.. and plug it into the main router.. it should work fine like that.

What setting will make sync make my iPhone and MacBook Pro contact cards alike?

What setting will make sync make my iPhone and MacBook Pro contact cards alike? I've been having to key in changes to both devices because sync doesn't sync.

If you really are running Mac OS X 10.7.5 and iOS 6.1.3, you should be able to sync through iTunes, but in current releases you need to use a central contact service like iCloud.
Did you have it working and then not working, or have you never had it working?
Are you trying to use iTunes, iCloud, or something else?

Can't synchronise mails of iphone and macbook pro

I receive my mails on my iphone and Macbook pro. If I download the mails on my iphone first and I open them, they will not be downloaded on my macbook pro. If I download them on my iphone but I don’t open them they will downloaded on my ibook pro. What do I have to change on my settings in order to have the syncronized?
Thanks

That's normal behavior for a POP3 email account. If your email provider supports IMAP, set the account up as an IMAP account on both the Mac and the iPhone. IMAP supports synchronization between clients and the server. POP3 does not.

ICal and contact duplicates in my iPhone and MacBook

Hi,
I have seen other discussions related to this subject but I can't seem to fix it. I have duplicates in my iPhone and MacBook of both iCal events and contacts. I am probably doing something wrong because if I add an event on my MacBook it will appear (fast enough!) in my iPhone, but it will not work the other way. Same thing with contacts. It is a bit of a nightmare and I would like to be able to have things once and automatically synced... if possible, of course, but I assumed this is what iCloud was about.
Can anyone with this stuff under control give me a hand?
Much appreciated

Your iPhone can take a screen-capture by holding down the bottom 'HOME' button
for 2-3 seconds, and then depressing the top 'RESET' button momentarily while
continuing to hold down 'HOME'. You will see a simulated white 'flash' on the iPhone
screen, and the screen capture will appear as a photo in your latest Camera Roll.
Unintended shots can be deleted from the Camera Roll just like any photo you might
take using the iPhone's camera.

'connection timed out' on both iphone and macbook air

The box for the internet is in my housemates room so I can't get in to restart it (if that would fix it). They're all gone for a week so I can't check with them to see if they have the same problem. I'm asuming they would since it's happening on both my iphone and macbook. But what can I do to fix it? I've looked on line but can't get anythign to solve my problem. I've deleted the network from the computer. That doesn't help. I'm at a McDonald's fixing to solve the problem. Please help me, I really need internet for some work I have to do this weekend. Please make it simple because I'm not good with computers.
I bought my macbook air in march 2012, I think it came with Lion.
Thanks a lot.

Hi there,
There may be a conflict between the network settings and your devices. I would recommend taking a look at the article below and comparing that to your routers current settings.

ICloud, iPhone and macbook

How to set up icloud and have both iphone and macbook in sync? Have followed set up including buying and installing mountain lion but still can't see my iphone updating if I change for example something in iCal on mac and vice versa. Have I missed something?
Many thanks for any help

While we all have MacBooks in this forum most of us don’t use iCloud. There's an iCloud Support Community where everybody uses iCloud. You should also post this question there to increase your chances of getting an answer. https://discussions.apple.com/community/icloud/icloud_on_my_mac

I cannot receive mail on my iMac - mail is received on all other devices incl iPad, iphone, and macbook.

I do not receive e-mail on my iMac.....all other devices incl ipad, iphone, and macbook receive e-mail.

Please read the Mail Setup Assistant and trouble shoot by clicking the I want to Verify an Exisiting Account and double check your settings. If they are correct then erase the ones input and re-input them.
