'Bluetooth not available' error message since upgrading to Leopard

Hi, I regularly seem to get a 'Bluetooth not available' error message since upgrading to Leopard, any ideas why, have to reboot to shake it.
cheers

I solved the same issue by resetting the SMC. With the computer off, remove the battery and press and hold the power button for 5 seconds. Then reinstall the battery and restart. I haven't had any bluetooth issues since.

  • Time Machine "Backup disk not available" error message since install Snow L

    Since installing Snow Leopard my back-ups have failed, generating the error message "The back-up disk is not available." Last successful back-up was immediately pre-install of Snow Leopard. TM looks like it is backing up but in the end I get the error message. The wireless aspect for internet connect works fine so I don't think connectivity is the issue.
    I am not real techie so insult me with basics. Thanks.

    I have four macs using time machine on a single 1TB drive connected to Airport Extreme through USB. This morning I got the dreaded error-109 on Mac#1. This occured right after I had added Mac#4 to the bunch. While adding the Mac#4, I mounted my airport disk and then used time machine to select it for backup. I forgot to eject it after it had done the initial backup. That was when the error occured on the Mac#1.
    Mac #1 C2D Mini 2009 SL 10.6.2
    Mac #2 G5 DP L 10.5.8
    Mac #3 MBP 2009 SL 10.6.2
    Mac #4 MB C2D2006 SL 10.6.2
    First I turned off TM on all of the Macs. I mounted the airport disk again, on Mac#1. I deleted the sparsebundle for Mac#1. I opened TM and selected the airport disk for backup. It is now backing up again on Mac#1. When it is finished, I will turn on TM once again on the other macs and see what happens. There is still a chunk of space left on the airport disk, about 680GB after all of the backups

  • Just erased my disk, whent to install Maverick and get : "Not available now" message since yesterday

    Just erased my disk, whent to install Maverick and get : "Not available now" message since yesterday. Can someone help me revive my dead IMac!!

    If you are selling or giving away the computer then follow these instructions:
    Follow these instructions step by step to prepare a Mac for sale:
    Step One - Back up your data:
           A. If you have any Virtual PCs shut them down. They cannot be in their "fast saved" state. They must
               be shut down from inside Windows.
           B. Clone to an external drive using using Carbon Copy Cloner.
              1. Open Carbon Copy Cloner.
              2. Select the Source volume from the Select a source drop down menu on the left side.
              3. Select the Destination volume from the Select a destination drop down menu on the right side.
              4. Click on the Clone button. If you are prompted about creating a clone of the Recovery HD be sure
                  to opt for that.
              Destination means a freshly erased external backup drive. Source means the internal startup drive.
    Step Two - Prepare the machine for the new buyer:
              1. De-authorize the computer in iTunes! De-authorize both iTunes and Audible accounts.
              2, Remove any Open Firmware passwords or Firmware passwords.
              3. Turn the brightness full up and volume nearly so.
              4. Turn off File Vault, if enabled.
              5. Disable iCloud, if enabled: See What to do with iCloud before selling your computer.
    Step Three - Install a fresh OS:
         A. Snow Leopard and earlier versions of OS X
              1. Insert the original OS X install CD/DVD that came with your computer.
              2. Restart the computer while holding down the C key to boot from the CD/DVD.
              3. Select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu; repartition and reformat the internal hard drive.
                  Optionally, click on the Security button and set the Zero Data option to one-pass.
              4. Install OS X.
              5. Upon completion DO NOT restart the computer.
              6. Shutdown the computer.
         B. Lion and Mountain Lion (if pre-installed on the computer at purchase*)
             Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible
                        because it is three times faster than wireless.
              1. Restart the computer while holding down the COMMAND and R keys until the Mac OS X
                  Utilities window appears.
              2. Select Disk Utility from the Mac OS X Utilities window and click on the Continue button.
              3. After DU loads select your startup volume (usually Macintosh HD) from the left side list.
                  Click on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
              4. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Optionally, click on the Security button
                  and set the Zero Data option to one-pass.
              5. Click on the Erase button and wait until the process has completed.
              6. Quit DU and return to the Mac OS X Utilities window.
              7. Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion and click on the Install button.
              8. Upon completion shutdown the computer.
    *If your computer came with Lion or Mountain Lion pre-installed then you are entitled to transfer your license once. If you purchased Lion or Mountain Lion from the App Store then you cannot transfer your license to another party. In the case of the latter you should install the original version of OS X that came with your computer. You need to repartition the hard drive as well as reformat it; this will assure that the Recovery HD partition is removed. See Step Three above. You may verify these requirements by reviewing your OS X Software License.

  • Bluetooth not available error

    I got a early 2008 MAC PRO with additional wireless keyboard and mighty mouse few weeks ago.
    Recently I keep encountering the "bluetooth not available" problem after software update (system reboot) if I have USB devices attached to the MAC PRO. Also, if I connect the Logitech quickcam ultravision directly to the MAC PRO, the bluetooth will have "not available" error after system reboot. If I connect the quickcam to the USB HUB, the problem won't happen.
    This error happened again when I install the new Safari update while I have the keyspan USB-to-Serial connected to the MAC PRO.
    I have all the latest updates installed in my MAC PRO. I don't know what happened, but I hope this problem can be fixed so that I don't have to keep unplugged all my USB equipment if I need to reboot my MAC PRO.

    Hi there,
    I just had the exact same thing happen! I had my usb 2 flash stick and MyBook 320HD only. I then noticed that the MyBook wouldn't sleep even though the Mac was shut down. I had to force shut off the drive by removing the power lead. I restarted the Mac with no usb whatsoever and voila! All is now ok.. I wonder if this is connected with the motherboard power management??

  • Formula Not available error after BW35 Upgrade

    Hi Guys,
        We upgraded to BW35 from BW30B. If I open a query in QBW getting an error message,
    Abort, The (Sub) Formula 3kfd3fe54er343df3fdf is not available.
         This query was working just fine before the upgrade, I checked all the formulas used in the query, everything is OK. I get the same error from TCODE: RSRT, I can't even debug. Any inputs ?
    Thanks.

  • Error message since upgrading iTunes

    I recently upgraded to iTunes v7.1.1.5 and have since been getting an error message that states "RTHDCPL.EXE Illegal System DLL Relocation". I am running an HP Media Center PC with Windows XP Media Edition. Any advice on how to fix this error?

    Hi, Peter8251.
    I don't have any first hand knowledge of this problem but a quick Google Search suggests that it is not at all connected with your recent upgrade to iTunes 7.1.1.5.
    There are a number of suggestions offered but if I were in your situation, the first thing I'd try is downloading and installing this MicroSoft Update .

  • Why suddenly all these Java error messages since upgrading to Lion?

    Since I upgraded to OSX 10.8.2, suddenly I'm having no end of error messages having to do with Java not running—everything from coupon printer plug-in to online games not functioning anymore. All of these worked fine in 10.7.4. Is there a fix?

    Since it is such a seething whole of exploits, Apple has disabled Java by default, both the JRE and the Web Applet launcher in Safari.
    If you try to run a Java application, it will ask if you want to install it.
    If you're just using web applets, you won't get asked. So, open Java Preferences which is in the /Applications/Utilities folder. It will ask if you want to install Java.
    Then, open Safari preferences, Security tab, and enable Java.

  • "the installation source for this product is not available" error message

    I was following directions to update to i-tunes 10, and my computer was trying to shut down in order to restart. It froze, and would not turn off, so I turned it off manually, then restarted. I got distracted and did not wonder why i-tunes did not finish installing. Tried to open i-tunes later from the desktop shortcut and it said something about not being installed all the way, so the shortcut was not valid.
    I tried to uninstall all the i-tunes stuff, in order, from my computer to try installing it again, and I cannot uninstall i-tunes!! It gives me this error message; "the installation source for this product is not available" and then gives me a file name to search my computer for, that can't be found. I MISS my i-tunes. Please help! How do I get the old i-tunes version off my computer?

    These sorts of msi-related troubles have gotten more complicated to deal with ever since Microsoft pulled the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from their Download Center on June 25. First we have to find a copy of the utility.
    Let's try Googling. (Best not to use Bing, I think.) Look for a working download site for at least version 3.0 of the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. After downloading the utility installer file (msicuu2.exe), scan the file for malware, just in case. (I use the free version of Malwarebytes AntiMalware to do single-file scans for that.)
    If the file is clean, to install the utility, doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file you've downloaded.
    Now run the utility ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up"). In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove".
    Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try reinstalling iTunes. Does the install go through properly this time?
    (If you do find a clean download site for the correct version of CleanUp, please don't tell me where it is. Without wishing to sound paranoid (although I grant it does sound paranoid), there is a non-zero chance that posting links to download locations for the utility here at Discussions leads to that download location being shut down.)

    When working with my macbook i have discoverd my bluetooth is sometimes not available (ie. ~ through the bluetooth logo in osx).

    Is there any know hardware error?

    I had the same problem you are having. My bluetooth would always go in and out and my computer wouldnt be able to sleep because of this problem. I finally had Apple phone support send me a box.
    Apple support sent me a box for my Macbook repair. I received the computer back 2 days later with a replaced bluetooth module and I havent had a problem since.

  • Oracle Not Available Error Message

    My application has been running fine until today. I have not changed any code in a while, but now I'm suddently getting the error message:
    Oracle.DataAccess.Client.OracleException: ORA-1034: ORACLE not available
    The database is not shutdown and I can run a query on the database server just fine. I have tried shutting down and re-starting the database, but I still get the same error.
    I'm running ODP.NET 9.2.0.401.
    Any suggestions? Thanks!

    Hi Jimmy,
    Can you run a query (e.g. using SQL*Plus) from the Client?
    If so, check the Data Source=<tns_name_alias> if it matches with the alias entry in Client side tnsnames.ora.
    S.H.

  • Dyld Error Message since upgrade

    Hi,
    Upgraded to SL. Mostly OK, but some applications (Apple Motion, Compressor, Aperture) all crash with same message:
    Dyld Error Message:
    Library not loaded: /Library/Frameworks/PluginManager.framework/Versions/B/PluginManager
    Referenced from: /Applications/Motion.app/Contents/MacOS/Motion
    Reason: image not found
    Well, its right. The image is not there. But presumably it was before upgrading. Anyone know a simple way to fix this?
    Thanks,
    Dan

    What versions of these programs do you have?
    Also, can you post the whole crash log here?

  • ITunes Store Not Available Error Msg. since ugrading to 7.0.2

    Since upgrading to iTunes 7.0.2, I get an "iTunes Store is Temporarily Unavailable" error when browsing the store... Not all the time, just enough to be getting old...
    Between having my store changed to something other than the U.S. (my default) and other little issues since the upgrade, things for me seem to be getting more unstable with each new release...
    Any ideas who might be beta testing each version before it's release? Sounds like people are continuing to have ongoing problems...
    iMac, PowerBook and iPod   Mac OS X (10.4.7)  

    Same here. Things were working fine before the update.
    I tried to turning on and off the option of IOS devices, it doens't seem to work

  • Calendar Sharing not available error message

    Trying to share my calendar with staff at the office here. I get the error:
    Calendar sharing is not available with the following entries because of permission settings on your network.
    I am using Offiice 2007 SP1, Exchange Server 2007 SP1
    I can however go to the other workstation and use the "open a shared calendar" option to access my shared calendar.
    It does work on some accounts, but not the majority of accounts.
    Where do I start trouble shooting this issue? How do I check the "permission settings on my network"
    Sorry if this is an easy one, I'm a new user to exchange. This is not a full production setup yet, still testing before I let folks know what it can do.
    Thanks

    Issue description: You can’t share calendar to other people
    “Calendar sharing is not available with the following entries because of permission settings on your network”
    Collect info:
    1.       Do the users you want to share belong to other forests?
    2.       Is the issue only happened on your account?
    3.       Is there any error info in the application log on the server or client if you reproduce the issue?
    Troubleshooting:
    1.       How did you grant the permission to other users, from the “Properties” of the calendar or share it in the invitation? Please check which permissions stay in the “Properties” of calendar by default
    2.       Check if DACL status is “GOOD” on your calendar by using PFDavAdmin
    a.       Launch tool on client [Install NET Framework 1.1 at first]
    b.      “File” menu->”connect”->select “mailbox” to connect->OK
    c.       Right-click your mailbox->”Folder permissions”
    d.      Check the “DACL state” on the right-up corner
    3.       Check if “automatically update e-mail addresses based on e-mail address policy” option is checked
    a.       EMC->Recipient Configuration->Mailbox, go to the “Properties” of your mailbox
    b.      “E-Mail Address” tab, check the option
    4.       Please recreate your mail profile on another test PC, see if you can reproduce the issue. in this way, we can isolate the issue to server or client side
     

  • I am unable to view any videos from the BBC website, getting "Not Available" error message. Works ok with Internet Explorer.

    When I go to the BBC (British Broadcasting Corp) website, and click on a video, I get a "Not Available" message. I do not encounter this problem with Internet Explorer. I currently have
    the Firefox 3.6.18 version installed. Thank you.

    Try running Firefox in [[Safe Mode]]. If it functions properly in that configuration, then one of your add-ons is the culprit.
