Can i send my pictures to my macbook pro via bluetooth?

I have bluetooth discoverable on my phone and went to bluetooth file exchange on my MacBook Pro but it says does not support this action. What can I do to send my photos from my phone to my MacBook?

To send photos, you synch your iPhone to the computer. Sending files by Bluetooth is not supported.

I can't connect my iphone5 to my Macbook Air via Bluetooth?

Can someone please tell me why I can't connect my iphone5 to my Macbook Air via Bluetooth?
Is this just the most ridiculous oversight or is there some underlying reason why this doesn't connect and function properly? How amazing would it be if I could just click on a contact number and dial from my phone like I could in 2008 via my Lenovo and my Blackberry. This blows my mind that two devices that scream compatibility are far from it. From my bluetooth options it see my device, then sends a code, I confirm and then it briefly connects only to disconnect almost immediately. #fail #appleoversight #failfailfail
Fix it or I'm going back to PC ****

Is it possible to transfer photos, files from iphone 5s to macbook pro via bluetooth?

Before I got the iphone 5s, I was using a Nokia phone. I was able to transfer photos, files from my Nokia phone to macbook pro via bluetooth connections. It was very simple and POSSIBLE (even though apple support staff said it was not possible to do so). My macbook pro does NOT need to be paired with Nokia phone as long as it can DISCOVER the nokia phone and vice versa.
Hence, after i got the iphone 5s recently, I'd expected both devices (iphone 5s and macbook pro) to communicate and connect via bluetooth as easily as Nokia phone. However, I was disappointed to find out the iphone 5s kept "searching" for discoverable device even though my macbook DISCOVERED the iphone!! Thus, I was NOT able to transfer any files from these two devices.
Any apple technical people care to explain why BOTH are apple products cant work? A Nokia phone and macbook can. Very strange, isn't it?

Althought,you can use bluetooth to transfer photos,files from iPhone to Macbook,However,it is so slowly,if you want to quickly copy photos/files from iPhone to Mac,you can use tools or software to help you,such as iStonsoft iPhone to Mac Transfer,This is a very professional tool,Hope this helps!

Can't pair iPhone 5s with Macbook Pro via Bluetooth

I have an iPhone 5s and Macbook Pro with retina display (running on iOS 8.0.2 and Yosemite respectively). For some reason, my iPhone can never see my MBPr but the MBPr can see the iPhone. Pressing the "Pair" button on in the Bluetooth setting panel in OS X will trigger the pairing confirmation to show up on my iPhone. After confirming the pair request, the devices remain connected for no more than 2 seconds. Then they just disconnect. (The status is "Not connected" underneath my iPhone on the Devices list in OS X)
This has been bugging me for a while, even before I upgraded to iOS 8 and Yosemite. I was hoping the upgrade will solve the issue but apparently not. My iPad on the other hand has no problem in connecting and remaining connected to my MBPr. That's just baffling.
Just some context: the reason why I wanted to connect my MBPr and my iPhone via Bluetooth is because I want to use my my iPhone as the hotspot. Yes, I can use the USB cable, but can't blame me for trying the wireless route (And no, connecting via wifi doesn't work)
Any help is appreciated!

Hi ddfaulk,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities. This article has some steps you can try if you're unable to pair your iPhone 5s to your MacBook Pro over Bluetooth:

Can I send a fax from my Macbook Pro Retina OSx wirelessly?

I need to submit documents via fax for "security reasons" I do not own a fax machine nor do I have a telephone line. Yes I could go to the local Post Office and pay for them to be sent but if I can do with my new MacBook Pro I would prefer to do it that way.
Is there a a way to do this without download a program or signing up to a "Fax.com" webpage.
Thanks

Use eFax to receive faxes. make sure you sign up for the free account and make sure you tell them your preference is to receive a fax are in TIFF format not in their fax program.
To send faxes for free use:

Very simple both are free.

Some fax services offer free send, some free recieve, but not both- The idea is to divide and conquer.

How can i backup my pictures from my macbook pro that doesnt let me log in? I just want to get the pictures i have in it, everything else is not important.

Last night i uninstalled Aperture from my macbook pro 13 inch, 2010. After i restarted my mac (as required) it didnt let me log into my account. I was only able to log into my guest account. Either way, my screen would flicker as if something was wrong. So now im thinking of doing a clean install but first i want to get my pictures. I do have an external hard drive 1tb that i could use.

See if you can get your hands on a firewire cable, and another Mac. If so, target disk mode should solve your problems.

I can't send emails remotely from my MacBook Pro - only from home.

I can't send emails from my MacBook Pro from anywhere but home. Suggestions??
Thanks!
KL

Typically that happens when your mail service provider is also your ISP, and you connect to it from another network. The SMTP server will allow connections without a password from anywhere, but it will only relay mail from within the ISP's network.
If you need to send mail from outside your ISP's network, use an independent mail service provider. I don't have a specific recommendation.

HT4236 How can I move my pictures on my MacBook Pro laptop over to my iPhone?

I had pictures on my iPhone 4s and moved them over to my MacBook Pro. After they moved over successfully, I somehow erased them off my phone. I didn't want to do that. Is there a way to move them back to my iPhone? It seemed to me that I had only 2 choices to pick when I was done syncing my computer and my iPhone; reset or start over (like new phone). I picked reset. Appreciate any help! Thnaks!!

While you're synching (presumably your iPhone is connected to your computer via iTunes), click on your iPhone's icon in iTunes on the left. You'll see lots of tabs near the top right, one of which is "Photos". Click on that and you should see plenty of sync options for your photos, one of which will be right for you. Then click "Apply" near the bottom when finished.

Can't set up Mail on my MacBook Pro via TalkTalk

On clicking the Mail button, I am presented with the “Welcome to Mail” screen and the “To get started, provide the following information” message.
I enter my Email Address and Password (which I KNOW IS CORRECT because I use it to log on to TalkTalk directly), but still get the following error message :
“Logging in to the talktalk.net POP server “mail.talktalk.net” failed. Make sure the username and password you entered are correct, then click Continue. If the information isn’t correct, you cannot receive messages.”
Someone please help!!

Ah! I found the Mail menu bar (as I said, I'm new to Mac). Both "Connection Doctor" and "Add Account" were greyed out.
I went through the "Welcome to Mail" steps again, this time holding down the option key every time I clicked Continue. That got me through all the steps so I could at least get my account set up. Now I can receive messages but I can't send them.
Since I now have an account set up I was able to check out the Connection Doctor. Outgoing connection succeeded.
Incoming (POP) failed with these details:
Could not connect to this POP server. Check your network connection and that you entered the correct information in the Account preferences. Also verify that the server supports SSL. If it does not, deselect the "Use SSL" checkbox in the Advanced tab of Account preferences.
SO, this kind of takes me back to my original problem (although I AM actually making some progress here with your help).
My server supports SSL and their instructions say to select it.
What exactly is it asking me to do when it says "Check your network connection"? If it has to do with which port is being used, I don't know where to find that.
As far as entering correct information in "Account preferences" -- If that means my user name and password, I swear I'm entering it the way it is entered on my iPad and Web Mail account.
AH! I just found the field for Port. It says 0. That can't be right. I'll check the ISP website to see what's supposed to be there.

Connecting iPhone 6 to MacBook Pro via bluetooth

I have an iPhone 6 as well as the newest version of the MacBook Pro laptop and have been trying to connect the two through bluetooth to send and receive files. My phone has no issue connecting to

You can stop looking. That's not a Bluetooth profile that's available on iPhones.
Airdrop may do what you need.

I cant pair my iphone 5c to my macbook pro via bluetooth why is that?

Ive tried several time to pair my phone to my laptop but it wont pair, it says "failed" or "unsuccessful" pair and i want to know why.
I first noticed when i was trying to connect my phone to use it as a remote for keynote but it wouldn't connect.
then i tried an app called "remote mouse" and that wouldn't connect to my laptop either after following all the instructions.
I can easily Airdrop stuff back an forth. thats not a problem.
I see my iphone on my mac when searching for devices in Bluetooth but it won't pair.
I changed the settings in keynote to enable a remote.
I've changed my system preferences under "Security & Privacy" to allowed "Keynote"and "RemoteMouse" access to control my computer. did nothing.
My main concern is getting to work my iphone as a remote for Keynote
Iphone 5c
iOS 8.1.3
Macbook pro
I have Yosemite 10.10.2

The iPhone and Mac do not BT pair with the one exception of BT tethering.
The Keynote remote feature uses WiFi. See this support article for information: Using Keynote Remote - Apple Support
if you are still using the Keynote remote App (which is no longer in the App Store) see this article:
