  • Can an older IPod (click wheel) be used with a wireless/bluetooth speaker? If so, how?

    Can an older IPod (click wheel) be used with a wireless/bluetooth speaker? If so, how?

    There is no doubt you can.
    When you say photos stored on it.. in what form are these photos?? Is this your iphoto library?
    If so using iphoto library on the TC has risks.. not necessarily viewing photos .. that should be fine. But if you have photos you are editing and wireless comms drop out leaving the library with a file open, it is likely to corrupt your library. Please check with the iphoto people on the discussion board if you want to go ahead for the dangers of using iphoto on any network drive.
    The TC is not designed as a NAS .. in particular it cannot back itself up, nor can Time Machine backup the TC. So any files on the TC are at risk. If you manage to corrupt the iphoto library without a current backup... does that worry you??

  • I have a MBP retina and I am having problem when my bluetooth and wifi are both active. My wifi is totally unusable when I am connected to via bluetooth speaker.

    I have a MBP retina and I am having problem when my bluetooth and wifi are both active. My wifi is totally unusable when I am connected to via bluetooth speaker.

    Chances are you mis-typed a character in the Wifi password and the devices saved that information.  Now whenever you try to connect the device refers to the wrong password and the Jetpack does not accept your connection.  Tell your devices to forget the wireless connection and start over.
    Once you enter the proper WiFi credentials the Jetpack will allow you to connect.

  • IMac G5 running OS 10.4.11. Started playing with a bluetooth speaker (may or may not be related). Now I cannot get past the blue screen on startup. I can get into safe mode. Tried install disc for disc utility and reloaded OS. Still get blue screen.

    I have an older iMac G5 running OS 10.4.11. The other day I started playing with a bluetooth speaker (may or may not be related). Now I cannot get past the blue screen on startup.
    I can get into safe mode. But no regular startup.
    I tried disabling bluetooth, thinking that might be related. It didn't help.
    I even tried using the install disc to run disc utility. That didn't work so I reloaded the OS.
    But I still get hung on the blue screen when trying a normal startup.
    All help would be appreciated.

    Try resetting the PMU/SMU and PRAM/NVRAM. You'd need to identify the mode of resetting depending on the model of your G5 iMac. The Apple support sites that would help you for this are –

    How long do you leave it?
    Mine can sometimes sit for quite a while (maybe 10 minutes??) before it finally finishes.
    You could look at the relevant logs via Console (Utilities folder) to see if Software Update is complaining about anything.

  • Impossible connecting with wireless network Netgear WNR 2000

    I can not log on to my wireless network (Netgear WNR 2000) with my macbook. My other PC:s work fine and connect always. My Macbook only connect after I have restarted the router. When I use my Macbook in other places I can connect with wireless network. What is the problem?

    I'm assuming that you're using the right network password!  After that, the most common causes of difficulty are:
    - The router not set up for DHCP and so cannot allocate an IP address to the MacBook
    - The router has "MAC" Address Authentication (a security feature - don't mistake MAC for Mac[intosh]) turned on and the AirPort MAC address isn't in the pass list.
    - The default "Automatic" location in System Preferences > Networks has been modified so that it no longer works.

    Is the iPhone 4S and iPhone 5 compatible with the D200 Creative Wireless/Bluetooth Speaker system?  I understand it says, "all other bluetooth enabled devices".  Just want to make sure...thanks.

    hi Adtrix,
    Can you try making sure that the bluetooth driver from Lenovo support site is installed,
       If your system is running Windows 8, Check the Lenovo Energy Management 7 version is installed. If not
    uninstall the Lenovo Energy Management from Control Panel / Programs and try donwloading this.

    After installation
    try hitting Fn+F5 and check the if bluetooth radio status is "ON'

  • Using a dongle and connecting with an Xbox 360...

    Hi guys,
    Quick question, i've moved into my new uni place but it hasn't got any internet. So im looking at getting a dongle but I still want to hook up my xbox to xbox live. Is there a way of feeding the internet through my imac (which is using the dongle) to the xbox. If its any help i do have the extra wireless box for the xbox and also an either-net cable.
    Thanks!

    You X-Box can connect to the internet thru the Mac using either wifi or ethernet, whichever works best for you.
    If you want Ethernet, connect a cable between them
    If you want wifi, you need to first create a network.
    System prefs -> Network.
    Select Airport then click on Network name: and select *Create network...*.
    Give it a name, tick require password.
    Now go System prefs -> Sharing.
    Click on *Internet Sharing*.
    Set *Share your connection from:* and select the dongle (likely showing up as USB).
    If you connect them using Ethernet, set *To computers using:* and select Ethernet.
    If you connect them using wifi, set *To computers using:* and select Wifi.
    You will need to enable wifi on the X-Box and connect with the password you set above.

  • MacBook looses connection with external monitor

    Hey Apple humans!
    I have a MacBook Pro (mid 2009) and an external monitor Samsung SyncMaster XL2370 connected via DVI/DisplayPort. Works fine since the mid of 2009 but in the last few days the MacBook looses connection with the monitor and isn't able to get the connection up again. The button "Monitore recognise" (don't know the exact translation of it in english) in preferences doesn't work, even a reboot brings nothing.
    I've changed nothing on the setup, only the newest patches for OS X were installed. Any ideas?
    Thanks in advance and sorry for my bad english, right now I'm to ****** to concentrate

    have a Mac Pro with 2 Samsung syncmasters and after updating os x to 10.6.6 computer loose the connection with the monitors. Randomly it seems, might work for a while and suddenly go black.
    Have to restart the Mac. I'm sure it's related to the os update. Tried all resets, throwing prefs, emptying
    cache but nothing helps.

  • Ipad compatible with SoundLink Bluetooth speaker III

    I have an IPad model MD510LL/A with operating system 8.1.3.  Is it compatible with SoundLink® Bluetooth® speaker III?

    It should be it the iHome supports the bluetooth profiles that the iPod supports. See:
    iOS: Supported Bluetooth profiles
    Try resetting the iHome if it was previusly paired to another device.

  • HT3275 Since Installing a new hard drive on my 2008 macbook and reconnecting to to time capsule through time machine, I can only get backups since the install.

    Since Installing a new hard drive on my 2008 macbook and reconnecting to to time capsule through time machine, I can only get backups since the install.
    I receive a message saying identity of backup dis has changed and offers me the choice of either Don't back up or Use this disc.

    Time Machine treats any new drive like a new computer. It starts a completely new Time Machine backup. So you now have two backups - a new one and all your old ones.
