Automatically connecting to BT device from Handset...not good

This is my first and most likely not my last inquiry.
I have a BB 8900 Curve on ATT running version 4.6.1.315
Very simple (to most) uncurable (to me)
Recently, the past 48 hours, my phone has taken control of itself. I am now being prompted to use the handset when making or receiving calls. I get no audio whatsoever from the handset when using the phone as a stand alone unit. If I make a call from the handset it still connects to BT audio as the primary source. I can activate the call by selecting the menu, then enable handset or enable handset speaker. This has never happened in the previous 5 months I've had the phone.
The only BT device I use is in my car and that syncs automatically. The BT in the BMW is only active with the key in the ignition and the car running, other than that I have never even seen the connection available with the car off.
Apps that I use all the time is drive safe.ly, and Pandora radio, both through the BT audio from my car. Let's rephrase that... 3rd party apps I use all the time.
I have gone through every setting and app that the phone has and cannot seem to cure this bug. It is annoying, if anyone has seen or cured this I would love to know what is going on here. If I missed a setting to check into let me know.

Okay ... it's a better bet with a 1067 error message when trying to start the Apple Mobile Device Service, but we'd better check for a LSP issue, as per the following document:

Will my iphone 5c automatically connect to w-fi from cellular mode when wi-fi is available ?

WIll my iphone 5c automatically connect to an available wi-fi from the cellular mode or do I have to set the phone manually to go to wi-fi ?

It will if your iPhone has successfully connected with an available wi-fi network when returning within range of such a network as long as wi-fi is on.

"Automatically retrieve CD track names from internet" not working

I'm about to begin re-ripping all my CDs (400+) which I haven't done since at least 14yrs ago in order to take advantage on newer/better formats. I was excited to see that iTunes can automate a lot of this process with the following two options:
- When you insert a CD: (Import CD and Eject)
- [ ] Automatically retrieve CD track names from internet
Found in the "Playback" settings of iTunes 10.1.1
However after inserting my first CD, I noticed it started to import without downloading the track names first. Obtaining track names manually is working for me because if I choose "Advanced -> Get track names" it accesses Gracenote DB and works fine.
It's just the automatic operation after inserting a CD that is not working. This causes me to have to:
1) Insert CD
2) Choose "Advanced -> Get track names"
3) Click "Import CD"
4) Eject
as opposed to the one supposedly promised step of "Insert CD" and have the other 3 things happen automatically.
I've tried deleting my iTunes plists in my ~/Library/Preferences/ folder but it still works the same.
Any suggestions?

You can seach the Gracenote site directly. I don't know if that would help you decide which option you needed to use.

Files saved to iomega NAS device from Mac not visible to PCs

I'm using my MacBook in a primarily Windows environment at work. We have an Iomega NAS device for our network file sharing.
Some, but not all, of the files I save to the network share from my Mac are not visible to PCs. Am able to see all the files out there saved by the PCs via the Mac, but not all files saved by the Mac are visible by PCs (ie, they show up in Finder/Mac but not in Explorer/PC).
Details:
- Mac OS X 10.6.2
- iomega StorCenter ix2 Network Storage Device (NAS)
- Netgear Router (details unknown)
All other network works fine from the Mac -- can see shared PCs, can use network attached printer, access the Internet, see all the shared folders on the NAS device.
Happens with all types of files (MS Office documents, JPGs, GIFs, PDFs), but not for every documents. Probably 3 out of 4 documents saved to NAS device from Mac are visible to PCs on the network, and 1 out of 4 is not visible.
Any ideas? Thanks.

OS X 10.4.8 update has not altered the behavior of this bug. The Office 2004 11.30 update seems to have caused the problem to happen less frequently. I would say it now happens half as frequently.

Can't connect to DFS shares from machines not part of the domain

I'm not sure if this is by design, but we can't connect to DFS shares from machines that are not joined to the domain. We can't even map a drive using credentials of a domain account.
Is that how DFS is supposed to work?

Hi RJO22,
I did some research on this topic, and got a conclusion:
Clients that belong to a workgroup can only access the DFS namespace if the name resolution mechanism that is in place can locally resolve the domain name

Deleting photos from iphone - not good results

I tried deleting all my photos from my iphone using itunes and the sync system. well it did delete all the photos from my mobile me account, but only about 1/4 of the photos on the phone were deleted and some of them are really messed up. while doing all this the phone locked up and until the battery went dead the phone was junk. what are the odds? Anyone have any idea how i can delete the rest of the photos from my phone? peace to you all!

Hi,
Thanks for the answer. So if I want one pic from a folder, I would have to basically create another folder with this one pic. The only problem with this solution, is I want to keep all the pics in this one folder (Picasa) to organize. I'm new to iPod and I can't believe this is the only way to delete pic(s) from an iPod.
Thanks again.

Mac NOT automatically connecting to preferred wifi network

Hi,
I am facing a problem with OS X 10.9.1 (Mavericks) wifi connection.
I use a Time Capsule as a base station and 13" Macbook Air (2012). The base station is connected to the internet through a PPOE connection.
Here are the details.
Since upgrading to OS X 10.9.1, my Mac automatically connects to preferred wifi network ONLY WHEN the wifi is available at start up or when the Mac wakes up from sleep, but NOT OTHERWISE.
Before the upgrade, the Mac automatically connected to the preferred wifi network not just at start up, but whenever the wifi became available.
In other words, after the upgrade, if I boot up the Time Capsule base station and the Mac simultaneously, the Mac scans for the base station wifi network (this is configured as the top preferred wifi network) at start up, but since the base staion is still booting up, the Mac doesn't find the wifi.
But once the base station has booted up and wifi is available, the Mac no longer bothers to join it. At this point, the Mac is also not able to do Time Machine backups to the Time Capsule because it is not able to locate the Time capsule disk over the wifi.
This situation remains (i.e., the Mac being not connected to the wifi) unless I do ONE of the following:
1. I manually select the preferred wifi network using the wifi icon at the top of the screen; OR
2. I put the Mac to sleep (by closing the cover) and then wake it up. On wake up, it connects automatically to the preferred wifi network; OR
3. I turn of the wifi (using the wifi icon on the top) and turn it back on, at which point, the Mac automatically connects to the preferred wifi network.
I have tried everything possible including contacting Apple support, but so far the issue is unresolved.
Appreciate any help you can provide.
Prem

I have had wireless problems intermittently for a year, and seriously for 6 weeks. Apple denied the issue and was no help in spite of many tens of thousands of people on their own discussions complaining. I found a post suggesting a couple of things which fixed the problem. I don't know if both are necessary, but the first by itself does not solve the problem.
Lock the channel of your router to channel 1, apparently Apple and 802.11n don't play well together on higher channels. When this becomes a standard this will be resolved I hope.
Open your network preferences, select 'airport' and advanced. Delete unused networks. Select your network.
Open TCP/IP and write down all the settings, configure iPv4 manually. Enter the settings manually. Turn off IpV6.
Open DNS and write down your DNS server. Delete it and re-enter it manually.
This has worked on 2 macbooks and an iMac for the last 3 weeks with no network drops.

Bluetooth problem - Cannot Connect to Device that is not copyright protected SCMS-T Method

I have a Qosmio X875-5280 which has a bluetooth adapter. I also have a bluetooth device which is an adapter for a Bose Sounddock such that the device allows the Sounddock to receive the bluetooth audio stream from the laptop -- at least that is how it worked until recently. Diagnostics show that both the bluetooth adapter and the bluetooth device are working. When trying to connect to the device, I now get "connection failed" message or the message "You cannot connect to a device that is not copyright protected by SCMS-T method." It seems the Toshiba bluetooth stack is responsible for this, however, I fail to see why a device which is acting like headphones fails to connect now. I have Windows 7 64 installed. I have uninstalled all of the bluetooth drivers and re-installed them several times. Attached is a pdf file which shows all messages and settings relevant to the issue.

Any small guidance would be helpful for me..

Those are the only ways I know to communicate from mobile to a pc. which one is better?

Hope it was clear now.
Thanks, Naor.

[SOLVED] wicd fails to automatically connect to a network

I have just upgrade to kernel 3.6.5-1 and after that wicd fails to autoconnect to my wireless network which I have set "Automatically connect to this network" from wicd-curse.
Is anyone experiencing the same issue? Any idea on what causing the issue?

Do you think some more information might help?
Start with telling us your chipset. Check with lspci -nn (That would be two n's, not m)
Also, is it your router? Is it encrypted? WPA? WEP?
Can you see it with iwlist scan
Can you associate with the access point by hand?
Is there anything interesting in the journal (or logs)?
What DE are you using?
Is the WAN blocked? (Check with rfkill list)

Cannot connect to the device anymore

I have been using the above device (HP Photosmart 5510 e-All-in-One Printer - B111a), for several months, to print, scan and copy. The printer is configured wirelessly and is used by 2 different PCs (a desktop running Windows 8 and a laptop running Windows 7). Today, don't know for what reason, we cannot connect to the device from either of the two machines. I've unsuccessfully tried to re-set the wireless connection twice, including by re-running the set-up program. The printer function itself DOES work, it’s the wireless connection that doesn’t, as written in a diagnostic report I printed after failing to set up the device again using the device’s menu: “Your HP printer is unable to connect to your wireless router ... caused by the settings on the router ... and suggesting to change the wireless router encryption setting to “WPA-AES” or “WPA-AES or TKIP” and run the Wireless Setup Wizard again” . message and the webpage times out. If I try to run the setup from the Photosmart software on the PC, I get a message “The server at 192.168.0.20 is taking too long to respond” and the connection never occurs. ALSO, I've received a couple of errors saying that if I installed the printer by IP address, I might need to update the IP address and to use the Update IP Address item in the Start menu entry for the printer. I don't think I used the IP Address method to install the printer in the first place and, at any rate, I don't know where to find the Start menu for the printer.
Is anybody able to help?
Thanks, Franco

Welcome back to the HP Community @Franco111 !
I hope to lend you a hand with the wireless connection issues you are currently have with your Photosmart 5510 and your network.
I would first suggest power cycling the network devices, in this order:
Turn off the printer and computer and unplug the router for 1 minute (do not press any buttons on the router).
Plug the router back in and wait another minute, next turn on the printer and computer.
Run the Print and Scan Doctor to see if the tool can detect the printer on your network now.
If you are still not connected, try scoping out and trying this guide: HP Photosmart 5510 e-All-in-One Printer Series - Unable to Connect to a Wireless Network When Using ...
When you print out the Wireless Network Test Report, you will see your IP address. Try accessing the Embedded Web Server (printers webpage), from your PC by typing in the IP address in to a web browser.
If you are still getting a message to check your router settings, here is what you are looking to check over:
Network name and password to have no spaces or punctuation.
If using WPA2 security, switch to WPA personal.
Dual broadcast Wireless b/g/n (printer may connect to g).
Turn Mac Filtering Off.
Firewall settings need to be at their default settings, or set to a lower security.
Multicasting "on".
Following ports need to be un-blocked:
Incoming (UDP) ports : 137, 138, 161, 427
Outgoing (TCP) ports : 137, 139, 427, 9100, 9220, 9500
Let me know the results so far and we will go from there!

EDGE automatically connects and i don't know why.

I've just seen my data usage on my carrier webpage and i've discovered that EDGE automatically connects even if i don't use any internet-required application (maps, safari ecc.)
I just would like to know....why? Why should EDGE be always activated? I mean....could it activate itself only if i use an app that requires internet and then unactivate when i push the home button?

Mail checking is set to manually....and i don't have visual voicemail. I live in italy and i use TIM (which is the future and current carrier for the iPhone in Italy, current becouse since 1.1.2 TIM is inside the iPhone (under carriers), infact i don't have EDGE under Settings/Network). I have a data plan but it's limited to 600min a mounth.
So why does EDGE automatically connects?
My iPhone is unlocked: not activated by iTunes, nor jailbroken. But it's just activated.
