Bluetooth sharing between other devices

Is there an app that makes it possible to share files (at least photos) between an iPad and other devices (other brands; not apple devices/idevices) ?

Bluetooth sharing from other devices to blackberry

hi team, i kind of find it difficult transfering data through bluetooth from other devices to blackberry even though the two devices are paired. when doing the transfer from the blackberry to the other devices, it works but not the other way round, any solutions?
waiting.

Hi and Welcome to the Forums!
See this KB:
KB05409 Transfer a file using Bluetooth technology between two BlackBerry smartphones
Substitute, in the KB, the appropriate instructions for your other device in place of the KB section for the sending device. Unless you are on BB OS 6, do not skip the "Receive Using BT" step on the receiving BB...nothing will transfer if you do.
Good luck and let us know!

I have an IPad mini WiFi (not cellular) and an IPhone 5. I use the bluetooth connection between both devices when on the road. I downloaded a navigation system on my IPad using GPS positioning. Is Bluetooth OK to use GPS positioning on the IPad?

Can an Apple ID be shared between 2 devices and each be private?

Can an Apple ID be shared between 2 devices and each be private?

Of course. To do it, open iTunes holding the Option (Alt) key, so you will see an option to create a iTunes library. Note that, after doing that, you will have two iTunes libraries in the same account, so you can choose the one you want to start iTunes opening it while holding the Option key

Will Apple ever support Bluetooth transfer between iOS devices and android devices ?

Can music be shared between two devices with different apple IDs?

Can music be shared between two devices with different apple IDs?

The Apple Support Communities are an international user to user technical support forum. As a man from Mexico, Spanish is my native tongue. I do not speak English very well, however, I do write in English with the aid of the Mac OS X spelling and grammar checks. I also live in a culture perhaps very very different from your own. When offering advice in the ASC, my comments are not meant to be anything more than helpful and certainly not to be taken as insults.
iTunes content can be commingled in the iTunes library on a computer and synced to iOS devices. The computer must be authorized to use the content from the respective Apple IDs in the iTunes Store menu.

Configuring Internet Sharing for other devices

I have set up Internet Sharing on a MacBook Pro. I am sharing the laptop Wifi connection over ethernet. If I connect a Mac to the laptop with ethernet, the sharing works fine--the Mac gets a DHCP address and is on the internet. However, what I am wanting to do is give an ethernet peripheral device an internet connection in this manner, and I can't get it to work. The periperal device will connect correctly if I give it an ethernet connection directly on my LAN, but for some reason the ethernet connection provided by the laptop doesn't work.
On the laptop, (WiFi IP 192.168.1.166, Router 192.168.1.1, DNS 192.168.1.1) I have given the ethernet port a static IP of 192.168.2.1 and a subnet mask of 255.255.255.0. I have tried with the Router and DNS populated and unpopulated.
From a packet dump in terminal it looks like the device makes a DHCP request, but nothing sends a DHCP reply, wheras when the Mac connects, the laptop sends a DHCP reply.
Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong, how to fix this, or how to check the log for Internet Sharing to see if I can see anything helpful there.
Thanks
Doug

I may have found a solution, but does anyone know if this 10.5 bug has been fixed by Apple? This was posted on an XBox forum as a workaround to the same proble--internet sharing not working with other devices:
10.5:
The following procedure is confirmed to work as written.
Start Internet Sharing if it's not already running.
In Terminal, type cp /etc/bootpd.plist /tmp/bootpd.plist
Stop Internet Sharing.
Open /tmp/bootpd.plist for editing using TextEdit or whatever.
Locate this section of the file, near the end:<key>reply_threshold_seconds</key><integer>4</integer>
Change the value 4 to 0.
In Terminal, type sudo cp /tmp/bootpd.plist /etc
Start Internet Sharing.
If you want to, check that your change to /etc/bootpd.plist hasn't been reverted.
So my question now:
Will this fix the issue in 10.6 or is there something else going on?

What can I do when I cannot turn off home sharing to other devices?

I just bought an iMac (my first) and when I tried to turn on home sharing, it told me that I would need to deactivate home sharing on another device. My other devices (an ex-boyfriend's computer, a crashed/dead HD laptop, a crashed/dead Dell desktop...) cannot be reached to turn off...what to do??? Many thanks for your help!

Go to Settings>General>Usage. How much space does it show you have?
If you connect your phone to your computer, what does iTunes say is on your phone? Do you see a large amount of "Other"? If so, you may have a corrupted database. You'll need to sync your phone then restore it as NEW (not from back up) then re-sync your data).

Why does bot apple enble bluetooth sharing with other OS devices ?

I have been using Iphone 4S for 6 months.The Only Problem i face is i cant share any kind of file via bluetooth with other OS devices.
I think Apple should include an update for bluetooth so that some users like us can shre files via Bluetooth.

Good for you. I'm glad you think that. Now tell Apple, not us as these are user to user forums, therefore nobody here would know the answer as to why.

Voice Memos will not play through Home Sharing on other devices.

I have synced my voice memos to my Apple library on my Mac Mini and can listen to them on that device with no problem. However, when I use my iPad or MacBook or Air to play the memos using my Home Sharing the voice memos will not play on the device. Sometimes a random song will start instead of the voice memo. I can play videos and music through Home Sharing with no problems, it seems to be only the voice memos that won't stream to the connected devices. Any help would be great (using Yosemite on devices).

I'm running 4.3.3 on mine and just played Joe Ely's latest album on my 1st generation Zeppelin. I do get the message about it not being compatible and possible noise but I dismiss that and play the music.
You may need to reset your Zeppelin (disconnect it from power, wait 2 minutes, plug it back in), Reset you iPhone (hold down the sleep and home buttons, ignore the red Off slider, wait for the Apple logo, let go of the buttones) or do both.
You may also need to update the firmware on your Zeppelin if you have not done so before now.

How do I stop iCloud from sharing with other devices on my apple i.d?

My kids and I all share the one Apple i.d as they are young. I have just upgraded my iphone (to iphone 4) and I'm setting up iCloud for the first time. I have absolutely no idea how to use it.
I use my Calendar a lot, for all my appointments etc.
How do I prevent iCloud from sharing my Calendar, photos, messages, emails and everything else with my kids iphone and ipad? Some things are best kept private!
I have gone into settings, iCloud and tunred mail, calendar, contacts, photos and nearly everything to OFF. Will tha take care of the problem? Will iCloud still work on my phone then?

Yes, that should work. But let me ask one question, why do you set up your iCloud on your kids devices? If you share your Apple ID for store purchases (Apps, Music, Movies etc.) then just set it up in "Settings > iTunes & App Stores". Your kids do not need your iCloud account on their devices to get access to your media.

Wifi Password sharing between iOS devices

I have a new iPad 3 and was pleasantly surprised when I progammed a friends wifi network into my iPhone 4 and the network magically appeared in my new iPad password installed and all witout any input from me. So I programmed a wifi network at work into my iPad but the iPhone is not showing it at all. The iPhone is on 5.0.1 and JB.
I do not have a Mac, but is there a setting I am missing that allows this to go 2 ways? Or am I completely missing someting here? Thanks!

Yes, I detected his network and he provided the key whic I entered on my iphone. It then appeared on my iPad as well with no prompting.
