Bluetooth Office Setup

Hello,
I work in an environment with a lot of people around (although I have a private cubicle with high walls) and was wondering if anyone knows of a way to accomplish the following setup.
I would like to get a Bluetooth headset that can pair with the iPhone that supports A2DP so I can listen to music in the background while I work.
But here's where it gets tricky (at least for me) is there a headset that I could somehow also have simultaneously paired to my iPhone and my desk phone at work so that when it rings I could answer that phone? My desk phone does not have Bluetooth, so I'm guessing if it were even possible than I'd need some sort of attachment to it. (It's an old Northern Telecom/Meridian phone from 1998)
This would help free up my hands, cords, make my day more enjoyable, focused and not disturb other folks in the cubicles around me.
Thank you for any thoughts or help you could provide!

You'll need to keep using those wires. A BT headset can only be paired with one device at a time so you couldn't use it with two phones at the same time anyway. (to answer a call on the desk phone you would have to unpair the device from the iPhone, pair it with the desk phone, then answer the call. The caller will be long gone by then.
And the Meridian phone system is very proprietary. Even adding a wired headset is not simple, I know of nothing that would give it BT capabilities.

  • Branch Office setup

    Hello All.
    I have a problem with a branch office setup, and I can't for the life of me think of what the problem is.
    I have a remote office setup, using an ASA 5505 that is set up to establish an easy vpn connection to the central network.  The connection at the branch office is a 20/5 cable modem, the central network has a 25/25 fiber connection.
    The issue I have is this.  Wired clients work fine at this branch office, at least 95% of the time.  I have a lightweight AP there that can come up and join the controllers at the central network, no problem.  I haven't done anything with H-REAP because there are really no resources locally they need that would allow them to do their work, so all traffic is tunneled back to the WLC.
    Wireless clients can authenticate to the AP, and I can get 15-20ms ping responses from them all day.  Latency never comes close to the 600ms proposed limit with CAPWAP.  Yet, for some reason the performance of the clients is problematic.  Webpages will frequently not load correctly, they experience some freezing, and with one application we use - it refuses to load completely.
    If we bring these same computers to an AP connected to our central network, on the same SSID, they work flawlessly.
    Something about this particular location is causing a lot of grief for our users.
    For what it's worth, we are running WCS 7.0.230.0 and the WLCs are on 7.0.116.0.  The ASA is running a pretty basic configuration, pretty much out of the box with the easy vpn configuration entered.
    Any help on this would be appreciated, I am at my wit's end with this setup.

    Yes, 20/5 Download/Upload. 
    So I did as you suggested, here are the results with a 1400 byte packet:
    Ping statistics for 172.16.253.50:
        Packets: Sent = 100, Received = 99, Lost = 1 (1% loss),
    Approximate round trip times in milli-seconds:
        Minimum = 17ms, Maximum = 2208ms, Average = 42ms
    That 2208ms response was an anomaly.  I ran it again and got this:
    Ping statistics for 172.16.253.50:
        Packets: Sent = 100, Received = 100, Lost = 0 (0% loss),
    Approximate round trip times in milli-seconds:
        Minimum = 16ms, Maximum = 93ms, Average = 21ms
    With this one specific application we're testing with - it stops loading at a predictable point, every time.  However, I can remain VNC'd to this machine the entire time, and do anything else on the machine, but the application will fail to load at the same point every time.  But like I said, if I bring that client back to our main network, it works just fine, so it's not the application itself causing the problem, and we have other, smaller issues with other applications we have.  It's really bizarre.
    It's really not acting like interference.  I just set up a new site with an identical configuration - but with a 3502i AP, and I can replicate the behavior at that location too.  Unfortunately at this time we don't have anything to study the traffic with - I actually have a call on a solution for that this afternoon.

  • %PROGRAMFILES(x86)%\Common Files\microsoft shared\OFFICE15\Office Setup Controller missing setup.exe

    Hello everyone.  I'm told that I can run a repair of Office 2013 via the following command line pointing to a repair config xml we made and placed on a server.  Only problem is that my machines don't have a setup.exe in that path.  Did the
    path where setup.exe is located change or something?
    %PROGRAMFILES(x86)%\Common Files\microsoft shared\OFFICE15\Office Setup Controller\setup.exe /repair ProPlus /config \\server\share\RepairConfig.xml

    Is your Office a Click-To-Run version or a MSI (traditional) version? If it’s a MSI version, setup.exe should be there. If it’s a Click-To-Run version, then you should not find any file called setup.exe there in that path.
    For Click-To-Run version of Office, you should run the Office Deployment Tool and provide a custom Configuration.xml configuration file. The Office Deployment Tool performs the tasks that are specified by using the optional properties in
    the configuration file. For details about Office Deployment Tool for Click-to-Run, please refer to this article:

  • Problem with bluetooth mouse setup at startup and no usb mouse functions

    Today for the first time ever I got this screen for bluetooth mouse setup at startup. I've never seen this before and have no bluetooth devices. Very weird! It continues to search for a blue tooth mouse and won't let me do anything.The window says "Pairing with your bluetooth mouse.If the mouse is not found, make sure it is discoverable" My generic usb scroll mouse will not function and has always worked fine in the past. I tried plugging in the stock apple usb mouse also and this doesn't function either so there is no way to cancell this out. I've restarted several times and no luck ,can't login and no mouse functions. Just continues to search for a bluetooth mouse . This has me worried as this is recording studio computer and I have a session tomorrow . Any ideas how to get this to bypass this bluetooth window so I can startup and login and get my mouse functions back.
    thanks,Craig

    Solved it on my end... Hope you're not afraid of using some Unix programming...
    I went into Unix mode (start up holding command key and s-key down). black screen with lines of white type pop up. (Means you are now in Unix mode). Give it a few minutes to check all the computer and when it no longer keeps adding any further info on screen type "fsck -fy", that is fsck space minus sign fy and without the quotation marks - exactly as shown inside quotation marks, and hit enter. It will run for several minutes detecting all that makes your computer work... I had in the final lines a message that read "file system modified". If this is the case than re-enter the fsck -fy command. Repeat this until one of the final lines will read "the volume appears to be OK". (I only had to do it twice to get to it). At this stage type "reboot". My mac restarted and I could log in without any sign of the annoying bleutooth mouse message. Hope it will work for you too!

  • Bothersome Microsoft Office Setup Assistant

    I can't open up any of my microsoft programs.
    Whenever I try to open up Word, Powerpoint, or Excel on my mac, the Microsoft Office Setup Assistant pops up and asks me if i would like to like to give feedback for the Customer Experience Improvement Program. Regardless of whether I choose to decline or accept, it brings me to a "Get Started" menu from which the only option is to click "Finish" which brings up Microsoft AutoUpdate. Regardless of whether I update or not, the program i chose to open never opens up. Every time I try to re-open the program, setup assistant pops up again and the cycle continues.
    How the heck do I get it to go away??
    Thank you!

    You might try the Microsoft Office for Mac forums:
    http://www.officeformac.com/ProductForums/
    Personally, my install went fine on two Macs (I declined the feedback option, let AutoUpdate run and install the updates, then I was good to go).
    Did you install Office 2008 over any previous versions of MS Office?
    You might try repeating the install - first, go to Applications > Microsoft Office 2008 > Additional Tools and run Remove Office.

  • Home Office Setup

    This is probably a very simple question, but I'll ask anyway!
    I have a couple of clients that want to set up a home office configuration providing a PC, wireless and VOIP handset configuration, providing the same functionality as though they were in the office.
    At the main office, I have an ISR 877 providing a basic ASDL connection and connected to that I have an ASA5505 providing the firewall, VPN access etc.
    I'm thinking that I can install a ISR 851 or similar at the home site, which will have it's WAN port connected to the existing Broadband router. I can then create a VPN connection (IPSec or Site-to-site?) to the main office through the ASA and hey presto, I have some happy users!!
    The things that I want to clarify are:
    1) Can the ISR 851 connected to an existing Broadband router through the FE, thus making a little secure business subnetwork within their home network.
    2) Am I going to need an IP at the home end? Or would I ensure the connection through the VPN through other means?
    3) Are there other, better ways to do this?
    Bear in mind that there isn't a huge budget to change the main office setup. I really want to buy an ISR, configure and install....
    Thanks in advance for any help...

    You do not need a public IP if you use EZVPN:
    http://www.cisco.com/en/US/tech/tk583/tk372/technologies_configuration_example09186a0080808395.shtml
    We used this once for a customer who had only one IP terminated on the router. We configured EZVPN on an ASA5505 but this should work with IOS routers as well.

  • Outlook 2010 - Office Setup box appears when attempting to send email with attachment.

    An odd issue I've found on one of my client's PC's.
    When a email is generated by right-clicking a file in Windows Explorer and selecting Send To Email Recipient, and then attempting to send the email, the Office Setup window opens as if it is trying to install office.
    We've found that if we close the setup the email does infact get sent, but it is a rather annoying issue to have to deal with.
    It only seems to affect emails with attachments.
    The client's machine is on Windows 7 in a managed operating environment.
    Troubleshooting taken so far:
    Repair of Office.
    Removal and re-installation of Office. (several times)
    Opening of Outlook Safe Mode
    Temporary files have been cleared
    Added line to registry: reg add HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Office\14.0\Word\Options /v NoReReg /t REG_DWORD /d 1

  • HT1941 Bluetooth keyboard setup has locked up keyboard, it's looking for a wireless keyboard, none of the keys on the keyboard are functioning, I can get out of the screen, or shut down my Mac, ... anyone??

    The bluetooth keyboard setup has locked my keyboard, none of the keys are functioning, holding down the power button does nothing, I don't know how I got into wireless keyboard setup, and I don't know how to get out. Anyone?

    Hi:
    I wish my suggestion had gotten you further.
    I do suggest you try to connect the keyboard again.  The request for a number is a step in it trying to pair.  If it gets by the number, it sometimes takes a little while to get connected.  If you are unable to get it connected and want a new one, I have been using Apple Bluetooth keyboards for years - and I like them. The one I have (the newest model) only uses two batteries and is very thin. 
    Speaking of batteries, if you are not already doing so, you might consider rechargeables.  I have a drawer full of them and use a 15 minute charger.  I go tired of buying batteries and rechargeables are environmentally friendly to boot. At the moment, I use 2450 mAh Energizers and a 15 minute Energizer charger (all purchased new on eBay at a very reasonable price).
    I am far from an iPad "expert," although I have one.  If my suggestion below does not help, post your question in a separate thread in the iPad forum.
    I had a terrible time syncing my iCal on my Mac with my iPad iCal (confusing - hopefully it makes sense).  I quit using iCloud as that added to the confusion. There is a facility to one-time sync items.  When you connect your computer to your iPad, iTunes opens.  The system begins a process (automatic backup and so on). After it finishes, you can click on "info."  At the bottom of the screen, there is an advanced section.  You can select any of the items and then force it to sync. The iCal information from your computer would be deposited on the iPad. 
    After all that, I do not use a Google calendar so the information may be worthless to you.
    If you want to reset the iPad to factory settings, you can do that when it is connected to iTunes (one of the options).  Me being me, I try never to erase anything.

  • Simple but reliable small office setup

    Hi group,
    I need some advice on setting up a simple but reliable small office wireless network. Up until now, we had a consumer AP combined with wired connections. However, we're moving to a new office where it's difficult to implement a wired network and we decided to implement a good quality wireless network.
    So, I was looking into business quality wireless AP's and it looks as if the Aironet 1600 is an interesting option. However, I'm not a (wireless) network specialist and have no knowledge of controlled AP's.
    The office is (only) 278 square meters (24 x 11.6), divided in two main areas by a supporting wall with two large doorways. I would like to keep the setup costs to a minimum, ideally using only 1 AP. This might mean placing the AP on the ceiling near the dividing wall (which is roughly in the middle), or on the wall itself.
    We need to support fast wireless connections from 15 laptop computers now, and up to 25 in the near future. Also, we'd like to support 15-25 mobile devices, i.e. tablets or smart phones.
    I've found some info on the differences between the AIR-CAP1602 and AIR-SAP1602 models, as well as the Internal and External antenna versions. It seems to me we could use the Standalone (SAP1602) model. However, I don't have enough knowledge to determine if the Aironet 1600 is actually appropriate for our requirements and if yes, which model.
    I would very much appreciate your advice!

    A 1600 would work or even a 2600. I prefer the 2600/3600 though but cost is your concern. I would also place the AP on the ceiling but belies the ceiling maybe in the middle if possible. Don't place the AP above the ceiling because you will loose coverage. Internal antennas are fine and just to note, rule of thumb is 25 users per AP so just in case you need more throughput, maybe using two separated by 3-5 meters would help also. If the 1600's are the choice for you then look at having one or two APs.

  • Branch office setup with L3 switch and router with IOS security

    Hello,
    I am in the process of putting together a small branch office network and I am in need of some design advise. The network will support about 10-15 workstations/phones, 3-4 printers, and 4-5 servers. In addition we will eventually have up to 25-30 remote users connecting to the servers via remote access VPN, and there will also be 2-3 site-to-site IPSec tunnels to reach other branches.
    I have a 2911 (security bundle) router and 3560 IP Base L3 switch to work with. I have attached a basic diagram of my topology. My initial design plan for the network was to setup separate VLANs for workstation, phone, printer, and server traffic. The 3560 would then be setup with SVIs to perform routing between VLANs. The port between the router and switch would be setup as a routed port, and static routes would be applied on the switch and router as necessary. The thought behind this was that I'd be utilizing the switch backplane for VLAN routing instead instead of doing router-on-a-stick.
    Since there is no firewall between the switch and router my plan was to setup IOS firewalling on the router. From what I am reading ZBF is my best option for this. What I was hoping for was a way to set custom policies for each VLAN, but it seems that zones are applied per interface. Since the interface between the router and switch is a routed interface, not a trunk/subinterface(s), it doesn't seem like there would be a way for me to use ZBF to control traffic on different VLANs. From what I am gathering I would have to group all of my internal network into one zone, or I would have to scrap L3 switching all together and do router-on-a-stick if I want to be able to set separate policies for each VLAN. Am I correct in my thinking here?
    I guess what I am getting at is that I really don't want to do router-on-a-stick if I have a nice switch backplane to do all of the internal routing. At the same time I obviously need some kind of firewalling done on the router, and since different VLANs have different security requirements the firewalling needs to be fairly granular.
    If I am indeed correct in the above thinking what would be the best solution for my scenario? That is, how can I setup this network so that I am utilizing the switch to do L3 routing while also leveraging the firewall capabilities of IOS security?
    Any input would be appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Austin

    Thanks for the input.
    1. I agree, since I have only three to four printers, they need not be in a separate VLAN. I simply was compartmentalizing VLANs by function when I initially came up with the design.
    2. Here's a little more info on the phone situation. The phones are VoIP. The IP PBX is on premise, but they are currently on a completely separate ISP/network. The goal in the future is to converge the data and voice networks and setup PBR/route maps to route voice traffic out the voice ISP and data traffic out the other ISP. This leads up to #3. 
    3. The reason a router was purchased over a firewall was that ASA's cannot handle routing and dual ISPs very well. PBR is not supported at all on an ASA, and dual ISPs can only be setup in an active/standby state. Also, an ASA Sec+ does not have near the VPN capabilities that the 2911 security does. The ASA Sec+ would support only 25 concurrent IPSec connections while the 2911 security is capable of doing an upwards of 200 IPSec connections.
    Your point about moving the SVI's to a firewall to perform filtering between VLANs makes sense, however, wouldn't this be the same thing as creating subinterfaces on a router? In both cases you are moving routing from the switch backplane to the firewall/routing device, which is what I am trying to avoid.  

  • Automate slipstream updates for Office setup

    Hi. my question is for Office 2010\2013 setup
    I always use the Updates folder to get the latest updates before installing office
    but it still a very manual job. going to the microsoft update catalog website, download the office updates that are newer than what I have for each product (Office, Word, Excel, PowerPoint...), extract the files to get the MSP file and copy or overwrite
    the files to the Updates folder...
    I was wondering if there's a switch, powershell script or even a 3rd party tool that can do this job for me?
    In Office 365 ProPlus i know that when I download a package I always get the most updated package automatically, which is great! I'm looking for something similar for Office 2013\2010 installation
    that will check online updates, match it with my current update folder and download, extract and copy the latest updates to my installation source.
    thanks
