Bluetooth Phone to Laptop EMail
Is there a way to transfer email from my BB Tour to my laptop using the Bluetooth link? Occationally I would like to read mail or attachments on my laptop when I do not have an internet connection. I can establish a link between the phone and the laptop using Bluetooth. Is there a way to transfer a mail from my phone to my laptop?
thanks, Mark
Hello markinnc and welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums.
Currently, this is not a supported feature of the BlackBerry smartphone.
Your BlackBerry does have the ability to be used as a tethered modem which would give you internet access to view your email in their native email form.
Contact your wireless mobile provider for more information on usage as a tethered modem.
Thanks! And have a great day

Bluetooth filetransfers between laptops and other iPhones and iPods fails.
I am really disappointed about the poor implemention Bluetooth services on the iPhone 3GS. It should act as a wireless connection method between devices supporting bluetooth.
My laptop is Hewleth Packard NX6325. The laptop does find my iPhone, but because my iPhone seems not to support PAN (personal area network), so my iPhone reports "No connection".
I would like to transfer files (mp3's) between my laptop and my iPhone.
Connection with a second iPhone fails also.
This is really a missed opportunity!

So Apple has got some work to do. Anyone who read this and feels the lack of functionality in the Buetooth suite on the iPhone 3GS as I do, feel free to address Apple on this item (The 'romainggnome' has given us the link to do that)
I 'll surely do!

Trying to set up Blackberry Torch for laptop tethering...bluetooth. I have connection/drivers/etc. but keep getting error message: "Error 720: A connection to the remote computer could not be established. You might need to change the network settings for this connection." Where and what do I chancge setting to so this will work?
I have synched my phone and laptop wirelessly across other internet connection....just cant get this above to work. Anybody know how to fix this? Thanks!Hi,
Since it worked previously, a quick solution is to run System Restore and get back to the previous status when the issue didn’t occur.
If system restore doesn’t help, please also try the following:
1. Check if you can establish the VPN via other connections except the connection through the UMTS card.
2. Reset the PPTP and L2TP WAN miniport with running the following commands one by one in an elevated command prompt:
Netcfg -u MS_L2TP
Netcfg -u MS_PPTP
Netcfg -l %windir%\inf\netrast.inf -c p -i MS_PPTP
Netcfg -l %windir%\inf\netrast.inf -c p -i MS_L2TP
Then reboot the computer and see how it works.
Meanwhile, I would like to share the following with you for your reference:

Hope this helps. Thanks.

Wanting to connect to bluetooth phone for internt access
Can anyone please help me. I just purchased a Powerbook 17" G4 and I want to use it on my vacation. I want to find out, since none of the people at the phone services think it can be done, what phone and service I can use to connect my Mac to the internet using the cell phone. If anyone can provide me with this information I would be grateful I live in St. Louis, Missouri, if that matters.
Thank you for your time in reading this topic!Did you resolve the question? I was so engrossed in how to get the Razr3 to work that it didn't occur that I could help. I have always had a great success with sony ericsson bluetooth phones and my laptop. Until now I have had service with AT&T. The tech at AT&T had me set my PB to dial 99**1#. I clicked on the settings for bluetooth and clicked connect and the icon showed data in motion and I was online. I haven't had the same experience with Motorola unfortunately.

How do I sync my laptop email with ipad and android phone. I want deleted messages to update on all devices. I use windows live mail and my service provider is verizon. thank you
I don't believe that Comcast uses IMAP, unfortunately. The best solution might be to access your email through Comcast's specialized app: http://xfinity.comcast.net/learn/internet/mobile-iphone-itouch-ipad/

How to prioritise connection of CAR Bluetooth PHONE system/ device over SmartBand Talk SWR30
After pondering about this device for over a month I asked my wife to gift it me for Christmas. For 3 days I really liked it, but then a critical flaw became apparent Having not driven for a few days due to the holidays I set off in my car, only to realise that I was not receiving telephone calls, SMS and other notifications on my built-in car bluetooth system (Ford Sync by Sony/ Microsoft), only on the Smartband Talk. Doing some research it became clear that if my SWR30 was already connected with my Xperia (Z2) my Ford Sync could not connect! I realise the limitations of Bluetooth (i.e. you cannot have simultaneous connections using a same Bluetooth profile) and the workaround is to manually turn off the Phone Audio (handsfree) Bluetooth profile for SWR30 in the Z2. Remembering to turn off/ back on is proving to be irritating and too much effort. I thought I might be able to create an Event (macro) in Sony's Smart Connect app to do this automatically, but this cannot be done as the app is rather limiting! It is more important for my car system to work with my Z2 as I use it frequently and is altogether a safer and more legal way of answering calls etc. Has any one got ideas or suggestions? I really like this SmartBand (its far sleeker & lighter than true smartwatches) and I actually want the talk feature, but if I cannot resolve the car bluetooth problem (and this will probably affect all other Bluetooth car systems/ devices) easily and smoothly, regretfully, the SWR30 will be going back to the seller
As stated before, I really like the SmartBand Talk and was very disappointed to learn that it could not coexist with a car Bluetooth system! Having had a few days off between Christmas and New Year I was determined to resolve this "flaw" and am glad to report that I have and in a slick way! Prompted by "ensaro's" widget suggestion, unfortunately I did not want a toggle which had to be manually executed, it had to be automatic. So I thoroughly researched the Google Play Store, trying out many, and ended up with 2 apps which were real contenders: Trigger (by Egomotion) and Automagic (by Gridvision). Both apps basically allow you to create a trigger (eg Bluetooth Car Audio wants to connect to phone) followed by an action (eg switch off Bluetooth phone connection to SmartBand, followed by switch on connection to Bluetooth Car Audio). Trigger calls this automation task a Trigger, Automagic calls it a Flow.Trigger is fairly intuitive visually, but unfortunately support for this supposedly highly rated app seems no longer to exist! This became very frustrating for me as at times it would not run (however, it also allows a widget to be created to manually run the task manually)... therefore I dug in to the more heavyweight Automagic! Automagic uses a dynamic flowchart, where you add a trigger, an optional condition (true/ false) and finally action(s). The style reminded me of my programing days many years ago and the logical nature excited me. The possibilities are huge and may scare off some users looking for a quick result, but in fact it is really quite easy to use, especially once you undertstand some of the slightly "obscure" terminology used (after all this a German programer at work and some translation suggestions may be required). At the end of the day I created 2 flows, one to connect to the car system (via disconnection of SmartBand and then connection to my car) and one to reconnect to the SmartBand when not in car (the trigger being that the car Bluetooth is no longer connected/ disconnected). These flows are passive and apparently use very little battery power, executing when a trigger condition is matched and so far is working well. If anyone wants to see how my flows are constructed, I will be happy to email them. You open them up directly in Automagic (going to their site allows you to download a 9 day trial with up to 3 flows working)... my flows are embellished with extra actions, such as switching off WiFi and playing a sound when a connection has taken place... and most important of all there is a forum with lots of help and examples and I was really happy when the progaming author, Martin, actually replied to a query... Problem... sorted! Automagic is well worth £2.40 ...

Connecting to internet with PowerBook via bluetooth phone
I have bluetooth in my PowerBook and I want to be able to use a bluetooth phone to connect to the internet when I am away from home. Does anyone have any suggestions on a good bluetooth phone to use or any suggestions? I have Verizon as my service provider.
Hello
I haven't tried this, but found this on the net, which requires some additional scripts for the Mac for the Motorola Razr phone.

What is doesn't say is whether it works on Mac OS 10.2 or not.

I have a 16GB iPhone 3GS. Tried synching my phone through iTunes (11.0.1 I think... on a 2009 Macbook Pro). Now when I connect to iTunes, it says it does not recognise the content on my phone. Is this because my phone (and laptop) are too old?
Also, when I tried to Restore the settings, an Error Message pops up that says " The iPhone software update server could not be contacted. The requested resource was not found.
I'm trying to free up space on my phone by removing [literally] thousands of old photos which were originally synched to the phone, because I had forgotten to uncheck the photos button when I synched it ages ago.
I have also tried synching it on my 24" iMac (running OSX Snow Leopard). But again, when I try restoring the phone through itunes, it says the file is corrupted. It sggests unplugging the device, and then plugging it in again. I have done this numerous times with no success.
I'm guessing it must be because my phone (and versions of iTunes, and OSX) are all too old.
Please can anybody help.
Cheers,
Dan_nz.There are multiple reasons that lead to issue. You should read the troubleshooting guide to get the right solution to solve the issue: iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch not recognized in iTunes for Windows - Apple Support

I have an iPhone 4S and use the group texting feature ALL THE TIME. I recently updated my iPad to the latest software and made the colossal mistake of continuing my group messaging from my iPad while connected to wifi. Doing this has successfully screwed but every group text thread I am in, to the point where its very hard for those involved in the thread to keep up. When I initially messaged those I was already engaged in text threads with it created a new thread in their phones replacing my name in their phones with my email. At first this was not a big deal but ever since then the people I am messaging have become increasingly frustrated with how my messages come through. If I am messaged in a group text and respond to it, sometimes when I respond it will create an entirely different thread in my recipients phones. So at that point they have to switch threads in order to read what I wrote. The new thread that my phone creates will send the message under my email not my name (related to the contact they have me saved as in their phones). The worst part about it is that there seems to be no rhyme or reason to why or when my phone will send the message as normal or under my email like it did with my iPad. I haven’t messaged from my iPad since these problems immediately began a month ago but the issues still continue. I have tried everything to get this to stop, I’ve turned off my wifi, I’ve had my friends delete the threads that my messages create in their phones. I’ve had them delete my email in their contact lists and nothing has worked. Can you help me? Any info you could provide would be greatly appreciated.
Note: My phone message no different whatsoever. All the threads have remained the same. The issue is what it is doing to the people that I am messaging.
Best Regards
Rick Mulhern
Message was edited by: Rickapplehelp19I have this identical problem. For a while my group texts didnt show up on my ipad. Then one day they did, maybe everyone in the group started using the same os version or something. Ever since my first reply to the group there have been complaints of multiple threads. I can not find a pattern for when my group text's decide they want to create a new thread. (it doesnt happen every time) Everyone in the group has deleted the thread, we've all toggled imessage on/off etc. There still hasn't been a solution.
Any help would be appreciated.

Requirement : We have a requirement to reuse the standard Activity subcomponents Appointments, Tasks, Phone Calls and Emails within a custom work centre. The requirement is to leverage and copy all sub functionalities Appointments, Tasks, Phone Calls and Emails available within the standard activity work center. This feature is available within Accounts, Opportunities, Leads etc. (Refer screenshot: Std_Act_Screen.jpg)
We are unable to consume/embed the standard Activity (Work center) sub components Appointments, Tasks, Phone Calls and Emails within the custom work center. This is because of backend consistency check violation UI designer error message displayed. (Refer screenshot:Error while consuming standard activities.jpg)
Ø Open Question:
a. Is there a limitation to consume/embed the standard Activity (Work center) subcomponents Appointments, Tasks, Phone Calls and Emails within a custom work center? We have noticed that this standard Activity Work center subcomponents Appointments, Tasks, Phone Calls and Emails has been repeatedly reused within the application in Account, Opportunity, Sales lead, Lead, Sales Quote Objects.
b. Is there an alternative way in which we can call [Through API etc..] the standard Activity Work center subcomponents Appointments, Tasks, Phone Calls and Emails?
We need your guidance to overcome the error to enable the reuse of the standard Activity Work center sub-components Appointments, Tasks, Phone Calls and Emails within our custom work center or suggest a suitable workaround on how this can be achieved.

How do you combine iMessage sent to phone number and email?
I talk to someone who sends me imessages to my phone number from their phone, and also from their ipad to my email. Both phone number and email are under the same contact. But the mesages go into 2 different threads. Id like to combine them since being under the same contact they show up exactly the same in the messages list.. so i cant tell if im messaging the ipad or the phone..
ideally id like to write a message to that contact and it would go to both their ipad and iphone...
anyways.. how do I combine them?This is possible and you can also send and receive iMessages to your MacBook from one phone number without having to use any email address whatsoever. This also means you will have one chat thread with all of your messages not two.
Anyone will tell you that I am a hardcore Apple Fan, however, sometimes they lack in the instructions area. For a while now I have had a problem with iMessages being sent from my MacBook. I could send an iMessage from my phone with no problem and my friend would receive it from my phone number however, the problem would arise when I would send a iMessage from my MacBook to to the same friend and a new thread would be created, so in essence she would have two different messages for me, one from my phone number and one from my email. After numerous attempts of contacting Apple Customer Service with no avail, I eventually figured it out on my own. I did aggrate some friends because I had to send messages relentlessly. In the end I found a solution and here are the instructions.
You’re going to go into iMessage on your computer, go to messages in the top left, click on preferences and then click on accounts. Look under “you can be reached for messages at” you should see your email and or your phone number.
If you do not see your phone number you need to add it to your account at this site. “https://appleid.apple.com/” click on manage your Apple ID and then sign in. After you sign in you will go to another screen and on your left you’ll see a list of choices click on phone numbers. Add your phone number and click save changes. It usually takes a few seconds for your iMessage account to update. Completely quit iMessage in the toolbar and then reopen it and go back into messaging preferences and then accounts.
After that has been done your phone number should now be added to the “you can be reached for messages at” section. Click on your phone number and then uncheck your email address.
Then go into your iPhone settings, messages, then scroll down to send and receive. Uncheck any email, only your phone number should have a checkmark, if your phone number does not have a checkmark... check it. You should receive a pop-up on your iPhone saying so-and-so’s MacBook is now using “insert phone number here” for iMessages. -

What you've outlined in this part of the post is all that icloud stores for you outside of the backup. If you want to restore from the icloud backup you will then have for all practical purposes a carbon restoration back to your device if you restore from the icloud backup.

Syncing your device with itunes will then enable you to remove whatever photos you wish to remove from your device deleting them with the computer and not the iphone. -

Maintaining Multiple Vendor Phone Fax and Email using IDOC
Hello Guru's,
I have a requirement where I must be able to maintain multiple phone and fax entries for all of our vendors. Is there a standard segment in IDOC CREMAS05 that will allow for this maintenance? Or will I have to use a separate BAPI / FM? I think there must be a standard way for doing this.
As of now it appears the CREMAS05 IDOC only supports the ability to maintain one phone/fax or email address at a time, which is in the LFA1 table, and not at the address table level (ADR2, ADRC, ADRT, etc.).
This is for an R/3 System running on EHP5.
Thanks,
Kohl Kemp
Edited by: Kohl Kemp on Jul 14, 2011 3:16 PMI've never done this natively in CUC. Here's a guide that covers how to do it with the Fax server integration if that helps:
