Bluetooth earpiece suggestions for LG Accolade. Never used bluetooth before.

I have an LG Accolade VX-5600 that I have been using a wired headset with. I'm thinking of using a bluetooth earpiece with it but I am not at all familar with bluetooth. According to the details for the Accolade on PhoneScoop it says Supported Profiles: HSP 1.1, HFP 1.5, OPP, PBA version 2.1+EDR. I don't know what any of that means.
I don't really need a fancy one, and I don't want to spend more more than $20, and I'm willing to buy a used one on eBay or Bonanza. Are there any brands to avoid or suggestions for a model that would meet my needs?

I really like the Logitech mice. I had a Microsoft BT mouse and a Belkin one, and I got rid of them both because of flakey behavior and went for a Logitech. Works great. I'm using the MX900, there are newer models out there now, I believe.
I have an Apple BT keyboard, and I like it a lot. I think on keyboards the choice is a bit broader, because the "performance" of a keyboard is a lot harder to get wrong. They either work or they don't. Logitech, Microsoft, Belkin all have Bluetooth keyboards, and they should work with the Mac for the most part, but it's a good idea to check first.
One thing you'll lose by not buying Apple peripherals is the battery level meter on the preferences pane. I can tell where my Apple keyboard's battery is, but not the Logitech mouse. I wanted two mouse buttons, though, so I went with the Logitech.

    Have you just entered or changed your credit card details on your iTunes account ? If so then it's probably a holding charge that is made to check that the card is valid and active, and it should disappear off the card within a few days : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3702

  • IChat behaves as if I've never used it before, then doesn't start up.

    Whwnever I start iChat 3.1 on my G5 Dual 2 running OS X 10.4.3, the app behaves as if I've never used it before. I have to go throught the entire start-up procedure, which wouldn't be all that bad, but when it's finished with all the info screens, I get a spinning beach ball for several minutes, no buddy list, and an error message when I click on the "window" menu item that says
    iChat Internal Error!
    NSInternalInconsistencyException:
    Invalid parameter not satisfying: aString != nil
    and when I click on "continue" the menu drops down. If I select "buddy list" I get the same error message. I have to force quit every time and the choices I made in the set-up procedure don't "take."
    I see in other posts that people are having trouble once iChat starts, but I can't even get that far.
    Any suggestions?
    Thank you,
    Lloyd Lathrop

    OK, I think I might have something. I got through the sign-in screens and opened the preferences. When I clicked on the "accounts" tab, there is something that looks like an atom in the "accounts" window on the left, but where it says "Display Name" in the center, my name is there. If I click on the "open" button by "My Address Book Card," nothing happens. I tried to add another account using the same info that should be already there, and I get an error message saying that it is an invalid screen name, but it IS my AIM name. So I tried to set up a new account using another AIM account I have, and it gave me the same error message (Invalid Screen Name). Also, I can click on all the tabs EXCEPT the "messages" one. When I click on that one, I get the error message
    "iChat Internal Error!
    NSInternalInconsistencyException:
    Invalid parameter not satisfying: service!=nil"
    My guess is that iChat is not able to talk with Address Book, but I don't know what to do about it. I'm sure there's more going on than that, but I'm lost now.
    Thanks,
    Lloyd

  • Emailing a photo, asked for my password(never done that before.  I put in my computer password, wouldn't take it.  Now just keeps coming up with wrong password, cancel or OK, but won't let me enter another password, so can't email a photo?

    I tried to email a photo yesterday (on gmail).  It asked for a password (never done that before), and I put in my computer password, and it rejected it.  Came up with OK or Cancel.  OK, box went away.  Cancel, it said do you really want to delete this email.  It would not come up with another box.  I think I was supposed to put in my gmail password probably.  I can still use regular email, but can't send a photo, the same thing keeps happening.  I even turned off my computer thinking that might reset it.  I cannot figure out where this password thing came up.  I checked the preferences, nothing there except requiring password for other people to see my photos, which is not checked.  I am stumped.

    Actually, no it doesn't. You can email a photo with Gamil via any Mail client and/or web browser.
    iPhoto Menu ->
    Preferences ->
    Accounts ->
    Delete and recreate your email settings.
    Alternatively, use Apple's Mail for the job. It has Templates too - and more of them.

  • NEVER USED IT BEFORE..... DOING A SIMPLE PHOTO MONTAGE

    I've never used Motion before, I usually use iphoto to do a photo slideshow, but find that I really do not have the controll I'd like. Is Motion something that I could do this with? Is it too complicated for me, or should I just stick with iphoto?
    I've been reading the manual, but am clueless.... really cluelesss about the terminology.... There is so much info, that I am confused. I just don't know how to begin. All I really need to do is Import 350 photos, and give them the "Ken Burns" effect. I'd like to controll which way the photos glide across the display.
    Thank you for your help in advance!

    Nothing's too complicated if you give it the right amount of time and effort. In all seriousness, Motion is actually a bit over-powered for what you want to achieve. It will give you the tools to do so much more than what you describe, but it's a professional tool, so it's not going to hold your hand.
    But if you're interested, it's certainly learnable. The biggest hurdle is that you're going to have to do it all by hand. Motion will give you extremely fined grained control over the properties and movements of your image, but it will take time to achieve. Look into using Behaviors under the Library. These are preprogramed animations that can be quickly applied to an object. You should also get a solid understanding of how keyframes work.
    I would advise you stick to the manual, as well as online tutorials. You're going to get a lot of information you might not think you need, but it's all part of the package. Here's page with links to tutorials:

    Good luck. If you have any more questions, post back with specifics. We'll try not to be too rude (all my friends from Bethlehem would be angry if I was rude).

  • ITunes 11 freezing while transfering music, and can't eject it, so I need to disconnect the cable, then iTunes works just fine and my iPod Shuffle is in restoring mode. I've been having this issue for weeks, and never had it before with iTunes 10.

    iTunes 11 freezes and can't eject my iPod, so I need to disconnect the cable, then iTunes works just fine and my iPod Shuffle is in restoring mode. I've been having this issue for weeks, and never had it before with iTunes 10. Please tell me at least a way to eject it without losing all my data and being forced to format/restore the iPod.    I've got 2GB iPod Shuffle 2nd generation(:D)

    As a test, shut down (power off) your computer and disconnect all USB devices including hub (except for standard keyboard and mouse if normally used).  If your computer is a laptop, connect its power adapter (so that it's not running on battery power).  Do this to reset the shuffle
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1655
    Start up the computer, run iTunes, and connect the shuffle to a direct USB port on the computer.  Does this problem recur when the shuffle is the only USB device?
    If it does (as another test), select the shuffle in iTunes, so that its Settings screen is showing.  Check the box for Enable disk use, and Apply.  Does that make any difference regarding this problem?

  • Hi, never used support before - here goes! My Mac G4 MDD no longer shows the start up hard drive icon. The one with all my files on! It shows the other 3 hard drive icons and boots up OK. Has my start up hard drive failed? Can it be fixed? Thanks.

    Doesn't sound like any hard drive failure to me - more a Finder preference.
    Finder -> Preferences -> General -> Show these items on the desktop -> Hard disks
    The startup disk is sometimes treated differently from other disks (such as external and network disks) and I'm guessing this is a simple preference setting, although I might be wrong.

  • Suggestions for Oracle 10g  Installation using VMware in Windows XP.

    Hi All,
    I am using Intel(R) Core (TM) 2 Duo CPU P8600 @2.4 Ghz with 1.98 GB RAM with Windows XP with 70 GB disk space. I would like to install a 2 node RAC with ASM and if possible also configure a DG for learning and testing purpose.Please advice if this will work using a VMware . Is RAC VM possible only Linux or with Windows as well ?
    I think 11g is out of scope since i don't have sufficient memory.
    I am new to VMware and have not done any installations or used it till now.
    It would be appreciated if you could help with these doubts.
    1. How much memory can be allocated to each instances?If i am installing Linux how much memory is required ?
    2. what will be the load on the CPU and will i be able to use it without any resource crunch ?
    3.Once memory is allocated to VM, can it be claimed back , is it like if i am not starting the VMware services.. i have the full 2 GB in discretion?
    4. Can 10g Standard editions be used for learning purposes?
    If the above hardware is not sufficient, please suggest a suitable configuration
    Hari
    Edited by: Hari2012 on May 27, 2012 12:24 AM

    You do not have sufficient hardware - you will likely need 6GB of RAM or more, plus 100G of disk or more and a multiprocessor machine. Each VM will need at least 2GB of RAM, and once all of the VMs/RAC are installed, the system will be pretty busy running 3 OS's (host and two guests) and two databases. If you do not start up the VMs, all of the memory is available for the host to use. 10g is no longer available for download, you will have to use 11g - yes SE edition is sufficient for learning purposes.

  • How do I prepare artwork for a printer (2 PMS colours)? Never used Illustrator before - lost!

    I'm preparing artwork for a DLX sized envelope. The printer (CMYKonline) only offers 1 or 2 colour printing for this size envelope, not full colour printing. I have never used Pantone colours before, and I downloaded a trial copy of Adobe Illustrator.
    I have the logo prepared as a print-ready PDF using Pantone 1788U for the red. (It's a very simple image, using no other colour save white.)
    I inserted the image using Place (figured that one out); I typed in the text (black) and a solid line using Pantone 1788U again.
    But how on earth do I make this artwork ready for the printer as specified?
    Any help gratefully accepted - I am completely at a loss, not having used anything similar to Illustrator before.

    Let me see if I can help:
    Using a CMYKOnline template?
    [I like CMYKOnline's readymade template, and recommend this approach for your requirement that seems urgent and immediate]
    Download the Illustrator template from CMYKOnline [I think the one you specified (DLX Envelope, plain or with a window) can be found at: http://www.cmykonline.com.au/Home/CustomersResources/GuidelineTemplates/EnvelopeTemplates/ tabid/278/Default.aspx]
    Add/place/create the artwork/text (I think you already have this ready, great!)
    Have a look at their requirements and tips [http://www.cmykonline.com.au/CustomersResources/tabid/124/default.aspx]
    Save this file and send it across to CMYKOnline (They accept .eps files! You're nearly there! )
    Stay in touch with your printer, they might have questions or need more information about your requirement.

  • Suggestions for tracks i can use on a 3 min sports promo?

    I am creating a 3 min sports promo for a client, they are willing to pay for the use of a well known pop or rock song from the last 10 years, i just need to find the right song and contact the publishers for using it, it will be used one time only at a big Sports dinner. It has to have lyrics that fit the images or a good instrumental, they will be positive sports related images and footage that i have shot thoughout the past year. Any suggestion for songs anyone?

    U2, Beautiful Day
    U2, Vertigo
    Foo Fighters, All My Life
    Eminem, Lose Yourself
    Limp Bizkit, Rollin (depends on your audience's tolerance for obscenity)
    Foo Fighters, My Hero
    My favorite is Beautiful Day for this kind of thing, because it will not offend, it is sophisticated (as pop songs go) and it stirs the right mix of nostalgia and suppressed joy to push a lot of emotional buttons.
    The Foo Fighters tunes drive a little harder, and have a bit more transparent desperation in their vibe. Better for a pre-game "pump tape" than a banquet.
    Eminem – it is a song about not choking. "You only get one shot…" Again better for a pump tape or a teaser or promotion.
    You probably should not use Rollin'. I just threw it in there because cutting to it is just too much fun.
    Vertigo is also here because it is great fun to cut to. If the audience is young, Vertigo might work better than Beautiful Day. Less sentimental.
    Good luck.

  • When I type in the email address I want to send an email to, mail suggests email addresses i never use

    I am using Apple's Mail application on my MacBook Pro for 3 emails. One personal, one for my work place and one for my university email address. From the university I receive lots of emails which isn't sent only for me, but every student on my course, so I am not the only receiver.
    When I am sending an email, from any of my email addresses and I type in whom I want to send it to, it shows a bunch of email addresses that I have never sent an email to. They are all university email addresses and I want to get rid of them, but they are not in my address book and I have no clue how to delete them / where to find them.
    For example: I wanted to send an email from my work place email to James Fox. He's email is [email protected] (just an example). When I start to type in James.f,   about 100 email addresses pop up, but none of them is the one I need and I will never need those and I CANT GET RID OF THEM.

    How is the university account added to your system? (You should be able to find it in either System Preferences - Internet Accounts, or Mail - Preferences). Is it an Exchange account, perhaps?
