Bluetooth connectivity phone-multiple computers

I am just new to all this. Value your help!!
I have managed to work out using the Belkin USB bluetooth adaptor to connect our new Nokia 6681 to the Powerbook G4 and sync OK. But, when I then go to use the same adaptor in the desktop G5 I then have to install iSync Agent to the phone all over again, and configure for the G5 to accept the phone. Onc i have reinstalled and reconfigured, it all seems to sync OK but does it mean that I have to have a different adaptor for each computer so that I do not have to reinstall or reconfigure each time I change using a different computer and want to sync to that one?
Thanks for help on this - it must seem so simple a problem to all those of you who are computer whizzes!

Yes.
To avoid this you need a adapter for each computer. This is the way Apple has designed it in Mac OS X v10.4. Does not like it. Complain to Apple.

  • Install cisco connect on multiple computers

    Hello all,
    I've installed the cisco connect software on my laptop because I thougt it was only for the installation of the router. But now I found that you can also change settings with the software.
    So I want to install the software on my desktop pc. But everytime I start up the software it wants to set up my router for the first use.
    Isn't is possible to install the software on multiple computers?
    Greetings,
    Timo

    I was interested in installing this utility on more than on PC at home so I called Cisco tech support. Let me tell you Cisco's customer service quality is not what it used to be. The rude representative who I ended up talking to said, I cannot install Cisco Connect on more than one PC. Then she kept telling me my free tech support 90 day period is over. Once I heard that, I forgot why I'd called them in the first place as it hasn't been even 30 days since I bought the router.
    Anyways, next day I tried to chat with Cisco support. First person said I can then since I had lost my confidence, I chatted again and this time the second person I chatted with told me "YES you can install it on more than one PC". Honestly, I don't trust them and have to continue my research. I am very interested in the answer.

  • Bluetooth connection to multiple devices with the same device name

    I just got a new iPhone 4 and am having trouble connecting it to my car's bluetooth. We have two GM vehicles which both have bluetooth. I can connect to one vehicle with no problems, but when I try to connect to the other, the phone tries to connect to the first car since both have the device name of "General Motors". With my old phone, I could change the name of the connection in the phone so that each car had a different name. How do I do this on my iPhone?
    Thanks for the help?

    No. It's a limitation of the BlueTooth protocol.

  • Bluetooth connected phone call waits until the person answers to connect through speakers! How to change this.

    When placing a bluetooth call the car shows that the phone is connected but there is no ringing (it is still ringing in the phone speaker).  Then the person answers and it plays through the car speaker, but misses the first word.  What is happening?  I used to hear the phone ringing.  Now it waits until the person answers.

    This occurred when I updated the IOS to 8 and switched to an iphone 6 from a 5.
    I read both articles and did not find a solution to my dilemma.  To clarify further:
    When hooked up through bluetooth to my 2011 Honda Accord
    - incoming calls will ring the phone through the speakers and I can answer and speak through the speakers/car microphone by touching a switch on my steering wheel
    - outgoing calls that I initiate by touching the phone number on the phone will ring in the phone until the person picks up, it then switches to the car speakers (unfortunately, the hand-off results in missing a word or two that the answering person has said).  This did not work this way with my iphone 5 and ios 7.
    I hope this is better communicated and there is an answer.
    Thanks.

  • Can the iphone 4s bluetooth connect to multiple devices at the same time?

    I would like to broadcast to multiple bluetooth enabled devices such as 2 car stereos to play the same song at the same time.

    No. It's a limitation of the BlueTooth protocol.

  • How do I connect to multiple computers remotely

    I have several Macs that are on an internal network, that I need to administer remotely. I can get to one of the computers as long as that computer is in the DMZ of the router, and all the appropriate port forwards are sent to that computer. How do I set it up so that several macs are accessible to me remotely? I just bought Airport Extreme hoping this would simplify things a little.
    Thank you in anticipation.

    I haven't done any of them, but that won't stop me from responding...
    Each has its advantages and disadvantages.
    (a) is probably slowest, because of the double hop, but easiest to implement (but would require a second admin installation of ARD, although you could avoid that by using the free vnc software inside your network). On second thought, the speed hit shouldn't be too bad because the second hop inside your network would be pretty fast.
    (b) is easy to implement if you have OSX Server. http://www.apple.com/server/macosx/networkingvpn.html If not, installing a free VPN could be a pain. But if you can get past that, it's probably the most elegant solution, and would give you access to all your network resources.
    (c) could be done with a bit of effort. Go ahead and use ARD for your primary computer behind the firewall. For the others, install vine server, and then when you're remote use chicken of the vnc to connect. Setup up each with a separate port (5901, 5902, etc. - the first computer for which you might use ARD would be on 5900), and configure your router for port forwarding as necessary. One downside of this, though, is that VNC is not secure by default; to secure it, you would want to tunnel it over SSH.
    If I were you, I'd do (b) if I had OSX Server, and if not then I'd do (a). And under (a), if I had a second copy of ARD, then I'd use that inside the network, otherwise I'd just use chicken of the vnc (it doesn't really need to be secure inside your network).

  • My IPhone will not connect to multiple computers

    I got an IPhone last October and a new computer for Christmas. I downloaded all my songs to the other computer and have mostly been using it. My IPhone will no longer connect to my home computer. I need to remove pictures from my IPhone that I added to it from the home computer. I cannot take them off on the new computer and it will not connect to the original one. Can I fix this problem without restoring my phone?

    Try syncing some photos to your phone from your new computer by selecting Sync Photos on the Photos tab of your iTunes sync settings.  I believe you will get a warning that existing photos will be deleted (which is what I believe you are trying to do).

  • Unable to connect to multiple computers at time; Model WRT110

    Only the laptop with the software has wireless access.  Other laptop is stuck on "acquiring network address."  Any suggestions on how to fix?

    Check the Wireless Settings on the Router...
    See this , Once you have checked the Settings go to the Laptop that is stuck on "acquiring network address." Go to the control panel and open network connections,
    right click on wireless network connection and click on properties.
    Now on this window, click on the second tab Wireless network and give a check mark on "Use windows to configure my wireless ....."
    and then remove all the network names from the preferred networks window. Then click on OK. ..
    Click on View Available Wireless Networks and try to re-connect to your network...
    Now it will give you the opportunity to put the network/wep key, make sure you enter the correct network key and confirm it...It will connect...

  • Bluetooth default connected phone?

    Hi, I have a E60 and N95 phones.
    Both are connected to be synch with my pc through last PCSuite.
    Unfortunatly every time I'm near the pc, the default phone for sync connected via bluetooth is E60 and I want to be N95 the default.
    How can I chande the default bluetooth connected phone?
    Thanks!!
    marco

    Hum, that could be it!  I will pay closer attention to how I'm answering next time.  I guess on the previous version it didn't matter how I answered because I never noticed it happening before. 
    Thanks!

  • Can I have 2 Bluetooth connection active at the same time? Works with other phones...

    Is it possible to have one Bluetooth connection for "phone audio" and a 2nd connection for "A2DP" music streaming at the same time on my iPhone 5? My car-stereo has Bluetooth for phone calls but NOT for audio streaming. However, there's a 3.5mm aux in on the head unit. On my S5 I can create one Bluetooth connection to the car-stereo and select "phone audio" and a 2nd for my Bluetooth aux-in adapter. It works perfect since months but last week I changed back to an iPhone (5s) and it appears that I can only have ONE BT connection active at a time!?  Any ideas anyone?

    Hi SwedelostinAmerica,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    The iPhone can maintain multiple pairing records, but it can only connect to one headset or hands-free device at a time. However, in your situation there may be a solution. You can connect the iPhone via Bluetooth for calls and use the 3.5mm jack on your iPhone and car radio to connect for music.
    The following article explains Bluetooth pairing and usage. Please use it as a reference.

  • Re: Satellite A200 unable to connect phone - No Bluetooth

    Some years back I bought a Satellite A200 (PSAF6A-OWOOIN) running Vista, which my daughter has since upgraded to windows 7.
    Previously the notebook had Bluetooth connectivity to my mobile phone (not that I ever used it),
    however (now that I do need it) I can no longer connect, or even find any bluetooth software.
    I have searched for a suitable download, but the only one I could find, would not run/start due to an incompatibility ????
    I real need to be able to connect my phone to my computer, as we have video that we wish to forward to the police on disk.
    Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.

    Hi
    First of all it would be really interesting to know if BT is enabled on this notebook.
    Can you see a small BT icon in the taskbar?
    What happens if you would use the key combination FN + F8?
    This key combination toggles between the Wlan and BT and enables/disables the connectivity.
    In case you cannot enable the BT or the icon does not appear in the taskbar, visit this Toshiba BT portal https://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/bluetooth/ and download and install the latest Toshiba BT stack for the Win 7

  • TS1368 My child has put in the wrong password on my phone multiple times, my iPhone now says "iPhone is disabled connect to iTunes", But when I try to connect to iTunes on my laptop it says unable to connect due to a password is on the phone? What do I do

    My child has put in the wrong password on my phone multiple times, my iPhone now say "iPhone has been disabled connect to iTunes" When I hook my phone up to iTunes, iTunes then says that my iPhone can not be hooked up to iTunes because it has a password on it, but will not allow me to put in a password because the disabled message is still showing. What is the next step?

    You may need to put the iPhone into recovery mode : http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808 - you should then be able to reset the phone and restore/resync your content to it.

    mono 8 bit 8k is 64kbps, yes. 8 bits times 8,000 = 64,000 = 64k bits/sec.
    And yes I think that's a typo - there's no such thing as 'Mone' that I've ever heard of...
    But you might want to check to find out if this is a mu-law non-linear format, possibly - there are several ways that 8 bit 8k wav files can be encoded, and typically phone systems don't use linear ones. If you have a log-in to Zultys' user-base system they have an FAQ there, I believe - the answer might be in that, and it won't cost $500.

  • Has anyone tried to pair the Tzumi bluetooth headphones to their iMac?  My iMac will detect the device, connect to it for about 2 seconds, then shows a status of "not connected".  Multiple attempts get the same result.

    Edge has very clear restrictions, one being that you must have 6 months of clean payment history which you don't. Either wait until April 14, or good luck at Sprint.
    I am unsure how it can be determined the payment mix up was the fault of CS, but regardless, the mix up was done. There can be any number of reasons why a payment could be missed without any fault on your part, however you are still the responsible party for the account and must live with the repercussions.
