8830 and Blueant bluetooth device

I can pair my Blueant Z9i bluetooth device to my Sprint 8830. But, when I do, the volume control on the B/B becomes locked at a low level. Thus, the volume on the headset is too low, even when the headset is set on max. Anything I can do to unlock the 8830's volume control and adjust it above "low"? Blueant says it's a Blackberry problem (I've tried it with other 8830s, and it locked the volume on all of them!), B/B says it's a Sprint problem, and Sprint says it's either Blueant or B/B! Help! Has anyone else encountered this? We have hundreds of 8830s here, and I tried 4 others, and they all locked the volume upon pairing. Thanks!

Can WCS identify and track Bluetooth devices?

I realize the WCS can track rogue AP's, clients, RFID tags, etc... but waht about Bluetooth devices? Don't see anything documented about this.

I believe that if it could, it would only show up as a roving noise/interference source.
Bluetooth uses all / most of the same spectrum as 802.11b/g .... except it uses it by hopping across it, not staying on a single "channel" as the 802.11b/g clients do.
So, to a bandwidth monitor, it would appear as a full-spectrum noise, which (if mobile) would travel across the monitored zone.
It may be able to pinpoint the source through triangulation .... I'm not sure and haven't had much playtime on the WCS.
Good Luck

Help! Must Delete and Recreate Bluetooth Device Each Sync

I need to Hotsync my Treo 650 under both Mac OS X v.5 (Leopard) and Win XP on the same machine running under Boot Camp. Before Leopard, I was able to do this via Bluetooth (cable on Treo 650 does not work right at all) without issue.
Under Leopard, when I try to Hotsync, I get the error, "Unable to initiate Hotsync operation because port is in use by another application". If I Delete the device from the Bluetooth list and setup the device from scratch, it works perfectly and continues to do so while in Leopard.
But when I go to Win XP under Bootcamp and try to sync, I get the same error message all over again. To fix it, I delete and recreate the device setup in Bluetooth and it syncs just fine while in XP. But when I return to Mac OS X, I am back to the same error message and must delete and recreate the device again.
Does anyone know how I can set up the Treo 650 so that I don't have to delete and recreate the Bluetooth setup everytime I need to sync?

I have a MacBookPro running 10.6.8. I use Bluetooth to link to devices including keyboard and magic trackpad. I bought a Bose Wave III stereo and a bluetooth device. No problem with iPhone, iPad, wife's MacBook. Not working for me. Thoughts?

I keep receiving an errror message that "there was an error with the device." I use bluetooth for all sorts of things, no problem. Anyone have any suggestions?Because the stereo is connecting no problem to every other device, I'm assuming there's an issue between my laptop and the stereo. Thanks.

Apple might fix the problem with SL; they did release the 10.6.8 Supplemental Update, which fixed an HDMI problem. So we might get a fix.
Don't know if this problem affects Lion. I haven't read much about it, since I'm not upgrading for another few months.

Smartwatch 2 and other bluetooth devices ?

Hello,
Can anyone confirm the Smartwatch 2 will work properly with a phone that is already connected to a Bluetooth headset ?
I would like to know whether I will be able to use both Bluetooth headset and Smartwatch 2 at the same time. Should I expect any conflicts between them ? Will I be able to initiate the call from the Smartwatch and talk through the headset without having to turn anything off ? Will the headset and smartwatch be receiving notifications without problems ?
Thanks,

If it helps I use my watch a SW2 with a Bluetooth headset/Hands free earpiece without issue using an Xperia S phone

How can I connect to other bluetooth devices

Hi Folks,
Having only just become a new iphone 4s user I've now found out that my iphone will not connect to any other manufactured phones and other Bluetooth devices, is there any way around this or is it an iphone only club!!!. Many thanks in anticipation of a reply, Astonharry.

You need to go to the App stores and find compatible apps. iOS device do not natively have to ability to transfer info to a computer via BT to a computer.
With iOS 8 you can use AirDrop

How to communicate with third party bluetooth device using LAbVIEW

Hi
      I am trying to communicate with a third party bluetooth device using LabVIEW, I am using a bluetooth dongle. I am able to discover the device and able to open the connection by specifying the service as serial port. But after that when I am trying to read and write data between LabVIEW and the bluetooth device (using Bluetooth Read & Bluetooth Write functions) its not happening.
Dose anybody faced same kind of issue if so kindly guide me, this is first time I am using Blutooth protocol.
Regards
Visuman

Hi,
I am able to talk with bluetooth / serial devices by using Labview protocol (not Wii dll). These are steps:
      Discover the bluetooth device in range (Bluetooth dicover.vi)
      Get the address of the device
      Pass device address to Bluetooth RFCOMM Service Discovery.vi to get service list
      Pass channel and uuid to Bluetooth open connection
      After that do write and read (Bluetooth Write / Bluetooth read).
I hope it works for you.
Take care

When I use a projector via a VGA adapter I can not run my Bluetooth speaker or other Bluetooth devices at the same time. Can anyone help me with this?

I try to find help. I can not run a projector and a Bluetooth device at the same time. Even though my Bluetooth speaker is recognized, and I have changed the settings to this speaker, it wont play any sound. I have got also problems using other Bluetooth devices when I use the projector via a VGA adapter.

HT1937 Bluetooth device is not staying connected to iPhone 4

I am unable to receive or send mms and my Bluetooth device won't stay connected

What version of code do you have on the IPHONE? So, you could be in the middle of downloading email and it will disconnect? What are you seeing? The reason I ask is I have had different rev's of Actiontec, different apple devices and never really had a problem outside of some software fixes I've seen.
Do you live in a house or apartment? Is there interference from other wireless LAN deviecs?

Bluetooth devices lagging after wake from sleep sometimes.

I have the Apple bluetooth keyboard, magic mouse, and magic trackpad. All batteries are charged and I have tried others by the way. This issue only happens sometimes, as it has happened before, but stopped for a few months, and now happened again tonight. What is happening is that my laptop (macbook late 2009 with mac os x 10.7.2) wakes from sleep (all default energy saver settings set and I am able to wake the macbook with any of the bluetooth devices), and my bluetooth devices mentioned above are laggy for about 15-45 seconds. What i mean by laggy is that when moving the mouse across the desk after the login screen is already fully loaded, it jumps and is clearly not tracking like it usually does. The bluetooth trackpad and keyboard experience this same issue.
Now the thing that leads me to believe it's bluetooth or software is that my macbook's built in keyboard and trackpad do not lag and function correctly as soon as the computer is woken from sleep and prompts me with my login screen. This also leads me to assume that it's not my computer running slowly or having too many processes or not enough memory. This problem happens even if I have no programs running (other than OS X's default processes). I have taken my macbook into the Apple genius bar thinking it was a bluetooth hardware issue, but they ran checks and confirmed that it was not and obciously, we could not get the issue to reproduce their at that time. I would love to hear from anyone who has experiecned this before, or is currently. We need to get Apple's attention with this issue because they have not listened to me when I submit a feekback form. This has been happening since 10.7.0 by the way. Thanks and happy holidays.
macbook 6,1
8gb memory
mac os x 10.7.2 (happened on 10.7.0, and 10.7.1)
-I can wake my macbook with my bluetooth devices
-My built in macbook keyboard and trackpad do not experience this issue
-I don't see the "connected symbol" when the computer wake (everything is already connected)
-All default energy saver preferences set
-Using apple's rechargeable batteries for all three devices
-minimal processes running
-devices function as normal after 15-45 seconds (it's not my desk)

I've got what sounds like the same problem with my new unibody MacBook Pro.
I've had the problem with both 10.6.1 and 10.6.2.
I also find that a reboot fixes things. In my case, I can sleep/wake multiple times with
no problem, but once the BT goes unresponsive upon wake, every subsequent sleep/wake
will suffer the problem until I next reboot.
I also discovered that in my case I can re-pair the non-responsive devices (two flavors
of Logitech mice and an Apple wireless keyboard) while in sick-BT mode and they will
work until I next sleep/wake, whereupon they will again fail to connect and my
choice is either to re-pair yet again, or reboot and have the problem go away, at least
for awhile.
I'm trying to correlate my activity with my BT going out to lunch, but have yet to narrow
it down definitively. I have one or two data points that make me suspect it goes south
after I use VMware Fusion (Version 2), but I cannot yet rule that one completely in or out.

My WLan card and my Bluetooth have both the same MAC address?

Hello dear Arch Forumers.
I've recently purchased a brand new Sony VAIO SVF 14415. I installed Arch in Legacy BIOS mode (I didn't want to deal with the UEFI stuff and I don't use windows anyway, so I erased the complete disk and started from scratch) successfully without any glitches except for the wifi card (broadcom device) and the bluetooth device. For the wireless connection I installed the Broadcom-wl driver from AUR and worked fine, then I went after the bluetooth integration (I'm using KDE). I installed every package in the official repositories to make it work, I also enabled the systemd service for bluetooth management but no luck to get it to work...
Then I tried with CLI tools to see if I could diagnose the problem and I noticed that both my bluetooth and wireless device have the same MAC address (see the image below).
Even though I found something I still don't have a clue about how to proceed to make the bluetooth work. Can someone help me?
Kind Regards!
EDIT: I'm sorry, I just realized the last character is different in both mac addresses but the bluetooth still doesn't work.

If the battery has been completely depleted on the Nano (not really a good idea) then it is going to take 15 to 30 minutes before your computer can see it. Same thing will happen with an iPod Touch.

I need to know how to access and use the Blue Tooth device that comes with the Thinkpad W520

Forgive me for being a techo illiterate. But I know that this thing supports Blue Tooth. And one "problem" with it is although it has a DVD and sound card, music and movies have very lousy audibility. Is there something I can do about that? I can barely hear anything on a movie unless I plug in head phones to the computer. But that leaves me stuck in my seat. I'd like to get cordless headsets. And I'm ready to purchase the Plantronics BackBeat 903+ Wireless Stereo Headphones - Mic, Rich Audio, Bass-boost, Voice Alerts, OpenMic, 3-way Earpiece. And have heard that it's compatable with a pc that has Bluetooth capabilities. but could someone get back to me with exactly how I access and use the Blue Tooth device?

I was searching for how to setup the 903+ and my W520 and came to this thread.
1. The OP was asking about audio and there are updated audio drivers / tweaks to get it louder / install different drivers.
but if you are going to go BT headset....
2. What I did for the 903+
Uninstalled the currently installed ThinkPad Bluetooth program. ( I forget the exact name, came stock and was out of date).
Required reboot.
Activated the Bluetooth with FN + F5 menu.
Downloaded the updated Bluetooth driver from lenovo (search lenovo driver matrix).
Ran the updated Bluetooth driver install.
Rebooted for good measure.
Double-clicked the Bluetooth Tray icon.
Clicked Add A Device.
Turned off my 903+ and continued to hold down the power to enable pairing mode.
Showed up in devices and added it.
Worked for audio. There are probably additional options for enabling the mic.
Hope that helps whoever might find this thread.

Apple Bluetooth Devices and Rechargeable Batteries

Hi,
Both from my own experience, and other posts on this forum, there seems to be a problem using Bluetooth devices, especially mice, with rechargeable batteries (symptoms, not being able to point, crazy tracking behaviour etc.).
I know that Apple recommends that non-rechargeable batteries are used, but in this day and age that seems a bit archaic and, well, not very eco-friendly!
So is there a good reason why Apple couldn't design (or re-design) bluetooth devices with re-chargeables in mind?
If there's anyone out there who has been able to get reliable performance from blue-tooth devices with re-chargeables, can you share some brands/details?
I've tried Energizer Ni-MH 2000mAh, and they do not work.
PowerMac G4 Ai/Intel Mac Mini Mac OS X (10.4.8)

Hello Ellis:
Welcome to Apple discussions.
Apple indicates that rechargeable batteries are fine for use in wireless mice/KBs (see paragraph #2):
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=86651#faq1
As the other poster correctly indicated, the voltage is lower in rechargeable batteries so they do not last as long as lithium ones. I use 2500 MaH batteries and the life is "reasonable." I do use an Energizer recharger that recharges batteries in 15 minutes (takes both AA and AAA batteries).
FWIW, I have not detected any behavior problems related to using rechargeable batteries - nor have I seen more than anecdotal posts that indicate such problems,

Is there a way to get a log of the bluetooth devices my iphone has been connected to? My Bluetooth car speaker phone was recently stolen from my car and appears to be on Craigslist.

Is there any way to get a log of the bluetooth devices my Iphone has been connected to? I recenly had my Bluetooth Jabra stolen from my car and now a simliar one is on Craigslist. I'd like to give my connection log to the police before I go and see if my Iphone recognizes the device in question. Any way to get any type of bluetooth device connection log out of my iphone?

Your contacts should still be on whatever program you sync your iphone to (i.e. Outlook, address book).
The iphone is not a stand alone device. It is designed to be synced with a computer. If you have not been syncing with a compatible program, then you are out of luck. Your contacts are not included in the back-up because it is meant to be synced with your computer.
"Although iTunes backs up most of your iPhone and iPod touch settings, downloaded applications, and other information (Contacts, calendars, notes, images in the Camera Roll), your audio, video, and photo content are not included in the backup."

TS3048 My early 2009 Mac Pro does not connect via bluetooth to my sound bar or bluetooth mini speakers. Both my wireless keyboard and mouse have no problems connecting. What do I need to do to connect to external bluetooth devices?

My early 2009 Mac Pro does not connect via bluetooth to my sound bar or bluetooth mini speakers. Both my wireless keyboard and mouse have no problems connecting. What do I need to do to connect to external bluetooth devices?

I would always have a wired keyboard and mouse on hand (need not be expensive ... any cheap wired devices will work). "Emergency recovery" procedures can activate features in random order, so the opportunity to select a recovery partition may pass before the wireless devices are recognized.
That will let you select the "turn on Bluetooth" icon.
