Problem with Speaker and Headset in Windows Vista
Hi, I just got my Macbook Pro 13" and having problem with speaker and headset when working with Windows Vista (I have installed the driver from bootcamp). The sound very weak if I play music from Itunes or youtube even the volume already full and if i put my headset the sound not coming out. Is there anyone can help me to solve this problem?
Regards,EdwinWhen you post about Windows / Boot Camp, in Mac Pro (workstation) forum where others with a MacBOOK would be more likely to have same hardware configuration, and you won't find Windows drivers on Apple downloads. More like at
http://www.guru3d.com or other sites, or go to RealTek (if that is the type of audio you have). -
A few questions about bluetooth technology and headsets...
Alright I am new to bluetooth technology and headsets, and want to do the proper research before I buy one.
1)I have seen some have 1.2 and 2.0 technology, so what is the difference and should I only look for one that offers 2.0?
2)Do they all offer a vibrating alert?
2b)Or just those really big kinds that look like hearing aides that have that little box behind your ear?...
http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ssPageName=STRK:MEWAX:IT&item=2002 46049729
3) Do they all have a multi-function button, 3way, mute, volume etc?
3b) Or are some just a single button that only answers and hangs up?
4) Do any of these charge via bluetooth?
5) I've seen some bluetooths have a micro sd chip in them... what is the point of this? Can they be used like a usb storage device?
6) Can you buy those usb to mini-usb adapters for charging and data transfer (not sure what kind of data you would transfer to a headset) separate from having to buy a combo kit that comes with it?You might try Google and look for answers, these are pretty comprehensive questions regarding a broad sweep of headsets. You might get answers on a few models, or just Apple's, here.
If you click on each of the models in the link I gave you it goes into more detail about each one. -
Apple's BlueTooth Headset - GREAT!
"No question, just a comment. Have been using the Apple Bluetooth headset now for the last couple of days and very impressed with the smallness, sound and ease of use qualities. It is much smaller than you can believe, light as a feather to the point of forgetting it is in your ear. Calls received and outgoing are crisp and clear. When I ask: "Can you hear me?" the answer is always a positive yes. Even when I speak in a low volume I'm heard easily. I think this is because the earpiece rides just on the top of your jawbone although I could be wrong.
Anything missing? Well yes, voice dialing would make it an absolutely perfect 9 and a perfect 10 would be a second earpiece w/o mic and the added ability to hear music/movies/tvshows. A quick tap to change songs or pause. Geez, THAT would be awesome!
I purchased the Jawbone and found it huge and a battery hog and now I'm quite pleased with Apple's Bluetooth offering. I sent the Jawbone back but I'll keep this piece of hardware. The dock is very cool (although the cord could be another foot for those of us with CPUs that sit on the floor. At home it connects nicely to my Apple Cinema and the cord is fine. Perhaps a retractable cord/cable?).
My recommendation to others sitting on the fence over buying a Bluetooth earpiece - buy the Apple offering. It is made the for iPhone, pairing was so quick and simple I had to look twice to make sure it was paired without any fiddling around, and extremely light, small and very powerful.
As soon as Apple gives us voice dialing this puppy will be very hard to beat.
Tim...I continue to use my Apple BT and it works great.
Prior to Apple's offering I purchased the Jawbone. If I stuck my phone in my front pocket then the static was ridiculous. I don't have that problem with the Apple BT. I suppose if I put it in my back pocket.
The other things I disliked about the Jawbone was it's size and its failure to sustain a battery charge for a decent period of time. You do not want to use the masking feature because it draws the battery right down. Yes, the video that promotes it is right that you can stand next to a lawnmower and hear/speak to others but you can only do so for a minute or so and then blip! Low battery.
Did I mention the thing is very large? No matter where I went people stared. I'm a doctor so while on rounds and making verbal notes almost every patient asked me "What's that thing? Why are you wearing it?" While today I use the Apple BT and no patient has asked me about it yet.
I returned to Jawbone and hoped the Apple BT was half as good. It surprised me because it was just as good.

The Apple Handsfree Bluetooth Headset
Don' you think that Apple should make their very own Bluetooth headset?
It should be slick, white and shiny with a little apple on it like every other cool Apple product.
1. Should allow you to play music and any other audio through the ear piece (I heard Jawbones can do this.)
2. Display battery life of the Bluetooth on the iPhone (again, I heard Jawbones can do this)
3. The little Apple could light up blue!
4. They could make a little dock for it and it can charge off the USB port. Maybe have a slide out USB plug!!....or use the iPod cable to charge....
and do all kinds of other cool stuff that none of us can think of but Apple can.
What do you think?They made one for the first iPhone in 2007.

2.2.1 Software Update broke connection with Apple iPhone Bluetooth Headset
Since performing 2.2.1 software update, my iPhone 3g does not recognize my Apple iPhone Bluetooth Headset when plugged into back of iPhone Bluetooth Travel Cable.
Is there some sort of reset operation I need to do?Hi Jonathan,
Try resetting the iPhone by holding the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons until you see an Apple logo as described here: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=305743
If that does not work, try the general troubleshooting tips here: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=305743

Feedback for Apple on iPhone Headset
I develop software for a living. I also use a considerable amount of technology at both work and home, including using Bluetooth and Wifi to connect robots and computers together.
I've played with (4) iPhone headsets (three on exchange from the Apple store, and one friend's) over the past two days and I thought I would post my observations so Apple would have more data on which to hopefully address these issues. Most of this stuff echoes what others are saying here in these forums:
- the headset has limited range
- the headset drops out, or disconnects occasionally
- the headset has a considerable amount of hiss during a call
I'm 6'8" tall. When the phone is in the opposite pants pocket (phone in left pocket, headset in right ear), I experience drop outs and disconnects with the headset. When the phone is on my desk, I experience drop outs and disconnects when about 10-12 feet away. Keeping the phone in the same-side pocket seems to work ok. Lame, but acceptable.
I went into Sam's on Sunday and experienced a complete disconnect the entire time I was in the store. Only until I left did the phone and headset re-pair with each other. This was while holding the phone in my hand, only a few feet away from the headset. I assume interference from other headsets/computers was causing this. Switching to my Motorola headset in-store, I had no problems.
I just ran a test at work with a Treo 650. Same symptoms, drop outs and disconnects. Limited distance away, ran into the same symptoms.
I also tested the iPhone headset with an iMac 24" and surprisingly it works 30' away, out of line of site, and in another room (wall between). No disconnect, no drop outs, little to no hiss. I got the exact same performance from my $50 Motorola headset.
The going theory is that the signal strength/gain in the iPhone is lower than what the computer can achieve. In the same vein, the Motorola headset probably has higher signal strength and gain than the iPhone headset, which alleviates the lower gain on the iPhone, but plays no factor when connecting directly to the (stronger signal based) computer.
Together however, the iPhone and iPhone headset are a bad pair. I'm wondering if it would be possible to boost power to the Bluetooth radio on the iPhone to help this problem? I realize that adding power on the phone doesn't increase gain on the phone, so there is still the issue with the headset transmitting a decent signal back to the phone. Perhaps a gain in power from the headset can be done via a software upgrade? Four connectors on the bottom of the unit...can it be flashed?
It's possible that the environments we are in are causing interference: http://www.mobileinfo.com/Bluetooth/FAQ.htm#t3 - perhaps the headset is being interfered with by other devices (like Wifi)?
I love the small form factor, the charging station, in-ear setup, the level of the volume, and the simplicity of the unit. However, the performance leaves a LOT to be desired.
I would like to see an Apple representitive appear here to address these concerns. Obviously disconnects experienced in one's (albeit large) pocket isn't acceptable.I have already reported the issues to the manager of the store in my town, and she notified me that she was working on getting the issue up the chain of command.
The feedback form is a one-way communications channel, and I find it unacceptable to use in a situation where numerous users are experiencing the same issues over and over. It is unlikely that my complaint is unique, however I've tried to be as detailed as possible here so that others in the forums can focus and refine the issue so that we may become aware of what the real problem is with the unit.
I love the product, but it is clearly flawed in some fundamental way. It is far better to get this out in the open to discuss, rather than ***** and moan about it aimlessly.
I'm keeping my headset, and will continue providing as much feedback here in the forums as necessary as I work to establish a cause and solution.
Thanks for your reply! -

I found My iPhone contacts on my friends Iphone we both have 4s! But we use the same apple ID and ICloud ID! How can undo what happened? all my private stuff is now on his phone!!! help me plz!!?
Of course if you are both connected to the same iCloud account you have the same contacts - what did you expect?. The contacts live on the server and are read from there by the devices; so as you've both managed to sync your contacts up to iCloud they are now inextricably mixed. You can only delete your contacts by deleting individual ones, and doing that will delete them from your phone as well.
You can only unravel this by
1. In the iCloud contacts page at http://icloud.com, select all the contacts, click on the cogwheel icon at bottom left and choose 'Export vCard'.
2. Sign out of System Preferences>iCloud
3. Create a new Apple ID and open a new iCloud account with it for your own use.
4. Import the vCard back into the iCloud contacts page.
5. Go to http://icloud.com and sign in with the original ID. This is now his ID. Work through the contacts individually deleting the ones you don't want him to have. When done sign out and advise him to change his password.
6. Go to the new iCloud account and delete his contacts individually.
Of course if you have also been syncing calendars and using the same email address there are problems with doing this. -
Dear Support Team,
Every time i tried to logon Icloud its gives me wrong user name or password and at the end it show me error " This Apple ID is valid but is not an ICloud Account" then how can i use one account for same Apple ID and ICloud?
ThanksIt is not possible to create a new iCloud account using a Windows machine. You must create the account using a Mac (10.7.5 or more) or an IOS device (iPhone etc). Once that is done you can sign into and use the account on your Windows machine.

I have been an Apple User for almost two decades and have had no problems with my G4 Powerbook, my Intel MacMini, nor several other Macs as well as Windows 7 machines. However, the IPAD2 poses a problem of unfathomable disgust with the concept and implementation of the Apple ID. There is one for the computer, there is one for support, and there is one for itunes, and possibly another one for apps. There are different passwords for each. I am continually faced with notification that my Apple ID is incorrect or the password is incorrect. I have to keep an Excel spreadsheet with all of this unnecessary NANNY State protection matched only in pervasiveness by the Federal government.
I am told that an Apple ID can never be destroyed and replaced. Who dreamed that one up? I am told I cannot use a password that has been used in the past year. Why? By whose authority? I am not a walking encyclopedia that remembers every telephone number he ever dialed. Thankfully my cheap LG clamshell telephone keeps numbers and talks to Ford Sync successfully.
Bottom line is that the IPAD has become almost totally useless since I cannot change the several necessary passwords to anything I can remember because they are not novel enough. I also never seem to be able to keep the Apple IDs straight as they are too numerous to remember and I don't want to remember them anyway. Why? Even if you enventually get the ID right you have the wrong password and have to go through a merry-go-round of emails to change the password to something you have already used in the past year which is not permitted.
Has anyone out there used a competitive device with less cumberson overhead? Surely this is not the best American technology can produce.
Thanks for your comments.
Ray ZacharyThanks to all who responded. You are all absolutely correct. However, this Ipad was a gift to my wife who was dying of cancer in the hospital and wanted some entertainment. So I started it out with her Apple ID. After she passed away I moved from Sacramento to Austin and eventually proceeded to get the Apple ID changed from my wife's to mine. Meanwhile when she was in the hospital I opened an Itunes account in my name to buy movies for her. That was the first mistake.
Then during the move to Austin I lost track of the IPAD and later found it and tried to use support but could not remember the proper ID. Later the folks at the Apple store helped me create a new and novel Apple ID that was unfortunately unlike any other.
The botom line is that I am stuck with three Apple IDs and three passwords. I am told by Apple there is nothing they can do about this as IDs cannot be changed or destroyed. I can quit using them or start a new account but when I try to do that the system keeps remembering too many things from the past and resists.
Even if I sold this Ipad and bought a new one, the system memory is still there.
I think the real problem is that destop and laptop computers are totally owned by an individual and that individual can control logins and passwords to his liking. IPADs and similar Apple products are different in that the corporation has built in their own intrusion detection schemes because of the relation to Itunes.
One thing I thought about is to open a new Itunes account pretendding to be a new customer with my regular Apple ID. Perhaps I could do the same with Apple Support.
Thanks for your comments.

HT2534 I have three Apple IDs and would like to combine them all into one, can I do that and how?
When I started buying Apple products I did not realize how important it was to keep the same Apple ID and Password for all of the device. As a result I have four Apple ID's. I would like to only have one Apple ID for all my devices. Is this possible and what do I ave to do to make it happen? I appreciate any help you might be able to give me. Thanks
It's not currently possible to merge accounts, nor to transfer content from account to another account - content will remain tied to the account that originally bought/downloaded it.

We have purchased 5 apple minis and would like them all on one account, that way we can monitor the use of these units. They will be used strickly for a business application. Can I use one account in itunes or must i have multiple.
Not going to happen the way you want it to.
When you add a gift card balance to the Apple ID, it's available for the Apple ID.
Probably best to create unique Apple ID's for each... this will also make things easier in the future as purchases are eternally tied to the Apple ID they were purchased with. -
