Address Book / Bluetooth issue -- Can you help?

I have a Sony Ericsson K800i cell phone and a new black macbook. I have the two devices connected and can use iSync, but I cannot use Address book to make calls or SMS. I also have an old powerbook which works fine with the K800i.
I can only assume now that it is an issue with my MacBook. Does any one have any idea how to get it working? I can get it to connect, but it doesn't want to make phone calls or SMS.
Can anyone help? It would be much appreciated.

Just googled "K800i Apple address book bluetooth sms" and found this link
http://www.fscklog.com/2006/09/sek800i_mitma.html
Its in german but copy and paste 10 points into sherlock and traslate to english.
Very simple to follow, took under a minute and now bluetooth sms and calls work a treat.
Have rehashed the clumsy translation and included below for you
1. Backup your address book and quit the application.
2. Right-click on address Book.app - > ' show Package CONTENTS '
3. Continue to go it into Contents/Resources
4 into Telephony.bundle
Right click ' show Package CONTENTS '
5 As before Contents/Resources to advance
6 Duplicate your ABDeviceCommandSets.plist for security
7 Open ABDeviceCommandSets.plist to with TextEdit
8 Search for' K700 '
9 Copy that string line and paste below replacing K700 with K800
< string>K800</string >
10. Finished. Open address book and test sms and dialing
Now telephone numbers can be dialled and sms sent
Enjoy!
Thanks to Leo...

My iPhone 4s Bluetooth is not working, I have ios 5.1 but just can't get my Sony erricson hbh-pv715 headset to connect to the phone, the phone can't find any Bluetooth device, can you help please

Yes it's in pairing mode, it worked fine with the 3GS but doesn't seem to work with the 4s, my 4s can't find any other bluetooth device, I think the problem ls with apple?

My macbook pro 2010 extremely noisy and a warning flashed on the screen about a power or battery issue- can you help please?

My macbook pro 2010 has started getting extremely noisy in the last few months and I had a strange warning flash up on the screen a month or so ago about a power or battery issue… can you help please?

Calibrating a 2010 MBP is not required. All it will achieve is putting an unnecessary cycle on it and shortening its life:

When i try to open email (thunderbird) this is what I get: Error platform version is not compatible with minVersion =1.9.2.15 maxVersion =1.9.2.15 I understand this is a firefox issue. can you help? thanks, Jane

i have also tried to uninstall firefox to no avail
when i try to download 3.6.15 it works to 100% then is searching for viruses and there it stops.
i can get on the internet with firefox... but can't get to my email using thunderbird... but i was told the problem is a firefox issue.
yikes. i'm in over my head.

I had already tried a reinstall before, but thanks for the suggestion. Starting FF in Safe mode did not help either.
XULRunner is specific to FF. Mostly found discussion about using the code in web pages when I used Google before posting.
When FF went from version 3.6.14 to version 3.6.15 this issue started. Please note the Error message and the version info I just mentioned.
'''"Platform version '1.9.2.15' is not compatible with minVersion > =1.9.2.14 maxVersion < = 1.9.2.14"'''
'''The Platform was revved up from 1.9.2.14 to1.9.2.15'''
I could not find information on: minVersion or maxVersion much less how to change them in XULRunner.
'''''It is definitely a Mozilla FF issue'''''.
Avast sandbox is up to date and works just fine with everything else. More importantly it worked just before the update was installed.
The only reason I bothered with the update is because Mozilla touted it as a security issue and there was NO mention of any known issues with sandbox software.

Registration Issues - Can you help?

Bought a new computer for home use. Bought CS6 Design and Web Premium. Computer delivered to my personal business work office. I installed software on the computer and activated/registered as best I can tell the CS6 software using SN. Brought the computer home (intending to keep viruses etc off it by limiting its time on-line) so I am not going to set up Email accounts on this computer. But everytime (each day) I try to open Ai, PS or InD and it asks me to register again. Says 00 days remaimning on trial. But I can enter SN and use programs. On-line chat at Adobe says it is registered to my one Email account but is clearly not recognizing my registration when I operate from this unit. Is this an issue that can be dealt with. I hope to christ that I do not have to enter my SN ever time I want to use this software.
Thanks and respond please to [email address removed] as my old computer here does have Email access.

CS6 applications in Creative Cloud unexpectedly revert to trial mode

Really slow and jerky cursor with my apple bluetooth mouse, can you help?

hey.
i have the apple bluetooth mouse and keyboard, they were working perfectly (keyboard still does) until they ran out of batteries one day. i reverted to the wired set up and (lazily) didn't get batteries for a while (month or so). When i did the keyboard responds as before but the mouse is painfully jerky and slow. i have re-paired the mouse and changed the batteries twice, it is so annoying i now use the bluetotth keyboard and wired mouse. any advice/suggestions gratefully recieved.
many thanks.
james

it is so frustrating isn't it. i now sit looking at the bluetooth mouse whilst getting tangled up in the cable of the wired mouse!! i was going to buy the new wireless mighty mouse hoping that that would solve/bypass the problem but reading what you have all put is definately making me wary of that. it seems so simple doesn"t it, nice uncluttered desk, pretty foolproof technology. if only... seems that no matter how clever these things get they are still not smart enough. i have been looking elsewhere for solutions but no luck as of yet, if i find any i'll let you know.
regards,
james

Can you help me return a MacBook Air that I found to the owner?

I found someone's Mac Book Air. Can you help me determine the owner so that it can be reunited?

Hi Detective Colombo,
You need to contact your local brothers in blue - hopefully it was reported to them and they can reunite it with the owner.
You can also contact Apple Support, and provide them with the serial number to see if the owner reported it to them, but that is not always successful.
Good citizen, detective! We salute you!

HT204150 I have just set up icloud and all my contacts are duplicated from Address Book! My new iPhone is also showing duplicate contacts even though they are not duplicated in my address book on my computer. Please can you help

I have just set up icloud and all my contacts are duplicated from Address Book! My new iPhone is also showing duplicate contacts even though they are not duplicated in my address book on my computer. Please can you help?

Also, what are the source of your contacts? are they created on the phone, or you synced from yahoo/hotmail etc.
If thats the case, the circular arrow wont be visible but instead show "groups"
Contacts from different accounts are not synced to iCloud.

Is there any Contact Manager or Address Book that I can install on my PC (Windows 7) that when synced to my Iphone that will accept my custom Lables for type of entry, such as you have- Home, Work, then "Private Line" ?

I am wondering if in fact there is any Contact Manager or Address Book that I can install on my PC running Windows7 that when synced with my 4s that it will retain all my custom lables for phone numbers in Contacts on my iPhone, such as Sandra's Private Line, Cadillac, Bat Phone or what ever?

Hi sahgin,
The issue eventually resolved itself, I still don't really know why. I kept up with Windows update, and attempted downloading iTunes again from the Apple website, and it just... worked. It now works fine. I don't know why it took approximately 4 months to work, though.
I'm sorry I don't have any more helpful information. Posting here was my last resort, and clearly Apple never bothered to reply.

When I finally 'upload' a book from iphoto my computer freezes. Can you help?

When I finally 'upload' a book from iphoto my computer freezes. Can you help?

Boot into Safe Mode and try again.
If that doesn't work:
Remember: we cannot see your machine. There are 9 different versions of iPhoto and they run on 8 different versions of the Operating System. The tricks and tips for dealing with issues vary depending on the version of iPhoto and the version of the OS. So to get help you need to give as much information as you can. Basic things like :
- What version of iPhoto.
- What version of the Operating System.
- Details. As full a description of the problem as you can. For instance: 'iPhoto won't export' is best explained by describing how you are trying to export, and so on.
- History: Is this going on long? Has anything been installed or deleted?
- Are there error messages?
- What steps have you tried already to solve the issue.
- Anything unusual about your set up? Or how you use iPhoto?
Anything else you can think of that might help someone understand the problem you have.

MSI BLUETOOTH Setup. Can you HELP??

MSI 845E Max2-BLR (i845E) Mainboard
Hi
Ive just built a system with the above mentioned MSI board, I chose this board because of the Bluetooth option as my friend is in a wheelchair & needed a short range wireless network to connect his desktop PC to his Laptop to transfer files etc. I thought bluetooth was the best option.
We have managed to Install the Bluetooth antena on the desktop end & the MSI USB Bluetooth dongle (Transceiving Key) on the Laptop end, everything Installed ok with no conflicts or problems showing anywhere.
When we go into the bluetooth software however it reports that theres no signal between the two devices, The system is running Windows XP Professional, do we have to setup a network within Win XP?
Im a complete novice regarding Networking or Bluetooth so if somebody whos maybe got experience of setting up this board with bluetooth could guide me through the setting up procedure of getting the bluetooth up & running
my email is: [email protected]
Many thanks.

You posted in the Photoshop forum by mistake - and people there aren't going to be able to help you with Elements issues.
I've moved your post to the Elements forum where you are more likely to get help with Elements questions.

My Mac book will power up but the apple sign remains in the middle of the screen and a gear turning below it -nothing else happens -can you help?

A couple of things to try:
PRAM reset by holding down cmd-opt-p-r on restart. Hold down the keys until you hear the second startup tone.
If you have a wireless keyboard, wait until you hear the startup tone, then press the keys.

Boot into Safe Mode by holding down Shift key on restart. Same timing applies to wireless keyboard.
Safe Mode takes a while to boot. It will show a progress bar. It will boot to the login screen. Log in, then restart normally.

Boot into Recovery HD by holding down cmd-r. Same note for wireless keyboard. Once booted, run Disk Utility and repair Macintosh HD (or whatever you have renamed it).

I want to install a hp laserjet pro cp1525nw with ox mountain lion . I dowload the drivers in the apple site but when i try to add a printer , my mac book air do not start the research. nothing happen . Can you help me?

I want to install a printer hp laser pro cp1525nw on my macbook air with mountain lion 10.8.2 . I download the drivers from the apple site and install them . I resart the macbook . I just can not add a new printer . the computer dos not start a research
Can you help me?

hi . I had the simalar problems of my HP b209a-m printer not being seen on my wireless network> I could not add the printer and could not get the printer to join my network, I found this post at HP discussion and it worked!
Each printer has different options/settings but it seems like the general idea should work ok if you can reset printer back to factory settings and find Printer IP Adress.
This is for HP printers
1. On the printer navigate to the Wireless or Network menu.
2. Select Restore Defaults.
3. On your computer look for a wireless network named 'hpsetup' and connect to it.
4. Print a Wireless Network Test from the front of the printer to see its IP address. (on my b209a-m Printer the IP info was found by pressing the Wireless Icon)
5. Type the IP address into the address bar of a web browser to see the printer's internal settings.
6. Click on the Network tab and look for the Wireless Setup Wizard and run it.
7. The Passphrase is the password you use on your wireless connection.
8. Now change the network name on your computer back to your wireless network.
The printer will now be connected to your network. With your the computer backyour wireless network network, you can re-add the printer from System Preferences.
Hope this works--- it did for me.
