Can I share a bluetooth headset with my iPhone 4 and my Mac?

Can I share a bluetooth headset with my iPhone 4 and my Mac? I don't mean both at the same time. I just think it's silly to buy a separate headset for each. I'd like to be able to sometimes use the headset with my Mac and other times use it with my iPhone. Is this possible? How hard is it to set up and is it annoying to switch over from one to the other.
The headset would be used 75% of the time with my iPhone.

Contacts can be synced direct with Outlook 2003, 2007, or 2010 via the iTunes sync process along with syncing calendar events, notes, and reminders. This is selected under the Info tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes.
If you don't use Outlook for contacts - your Outlook address book is empty, before the first sync for this data enter one contact in the Outlook address book. This will provide a merge prompt with the first sync for this data.
Or if your iPhone 4 is running iOS 6, you can create your hotmail account using the hotmail account preset with the iPhone's Mail app per the instructions included with this link. If your iPhone 4 is not running iOS 6, you will need to manually create the account as an Exchange account.

Regardless if you have any contacts available in your hotmail online address book, you should be provided a merge prompt when turning contacts on for over the air syncing with your hotmail account settings on the iPhone, which you want to select. This will merge your existing iPhone contacts with your hotmail online address book and merge your hotmail online address book with your iPhone contacts.
To have the contacts available on the iPhone 5, create your hotmal account with the Mail.app on the iPhone 5 followed by turning contacts on for over the air syncing with the account settings on the iPhone.
Or after syncing your iPhone 4 contacts direct with your Outlook address book, sync your Outlook contacts with the iPhone 5.

Can I replace my land line with an iPhone and keep the same phone number? Thanks.

Hi, Can I replace my land line with an iPhone and keep the same AT&T phone number? Thanks.

Hi
There are always some wrinkles in this kind of change. If you have a home security system like ADT they require a land-line for their system to work. This less of an issue in apartments and condos - it's mostly a "house" issue.
Before you make the switch (and there may be a switching fee) just make sure you cover all the bases.
Cheers

Can't pair up my Samsung WEP410 bluetooth headset with my iphone

I am able to pair up my samsung bluetooth headset with my other phone. Once I try to connect it with my iphone, my iphone just showing searching forever.
is there anybody know what's going on???
THanks

I have the same headset and paired it successfully using these steps:
1) Put iPhone in bluetooth discovery mode (Settings > General > Bluetooth > On). While on this page your iphone will have bluetooth visibility on and will search for devices.
2) Put your samsung headset in discovery mode by holding down the large button for 10 seconds. You should see a constant blue light (not flashing).
3) Your iPhone should detect the headset and ask for a pin code, enter 0000.
4) Your headset should now show as being paired with the iPhone.

Can I share my iTunes library with my iphone

I thought it might be possible to share my iTunes library with my iphone. I turned home sharing on in my iTunes, but apparently my laptop needs to stay on yo share. How can I share my music with my iphone from my laptop without physically putting them on phone?

1. Your iTunes on computer must be running and Home Sharing is activated.
2. On iPhone's Settings > Music > under HOME SHARING : the same Apple ID as on computer.
3. After the above are done, start iPhone's Music app > More... (bottom right) > Shared > select your computer iTunes Library.
4. After the circle completed, tap Music and choose whatever music you fancy.

Can i share my meetings/appointments with another iphone user?

Can I share my published iCal with any iphone or must they have mac w ical?

I have a mac and an iphone. I use ical. My friend has an iphone, but does not have a mac, thus does not use ical. Is there a way that I can get the hundreds of items I typed into iCal onto my friends iphone calendar? She can view it online, but can't subscribe to it. Any thoughts?
Thanks!

Hello ramirofromstrockholm,
The steps detailed below explain how to go about publicly share a calendar (which doesn't require that one be an iCloud user to accept).
Click the Share button to the right of the calendar you want to share, then select Public Calendar.
Note: You can also share the same calendar privately. For instructions, see the previous task, “Share a calendar privately.”
To invite people to view the calendar, click Email Link.
Type one or more email addresses in the To field, then click Send.
The people you specify automatically receive an invitation email that includes the calendar’s URL. An invitee doesn’t need to be an iCloud user to accept an invitation to view a shared public calendar.
In the sidebar, a shared calendar has a dark Share button.
You can also resend invitations to one or more invited participants at any time.
iCloud: Share a calendar with others

Using Multiple Bluetooth Headsets With the iPhone

I have a jawbone 2 & blueant v1 bluetooth headsets both paired & working with my 3G iPhone but i dont know how to switch between them. anyone know about this?

I have to reply here. I just came over after a horrible three weeks on a new BlackBerry Bold. I've been a BB user for several years and, being a Mac user, have LOVED the way my wife's iPhone worked, especially connection and updating from her iBook.
So, when I finally gave up on the BB and got the 3G I expected some things to be the same. One of them being the way the BlackBerry would virtually 'float' between Bluetooth devices, almost seamlessly. It took a while to get it working, but finally got it.
I have a Jabra BT500 earpiece, BlueAnt ST3 speakerphone in my car, and a Motorola Bluetooth device that adds my iPhone to the cordless phone network in my home.
The trick is to PAIR EACH DEVICE as if it were the ONLY DEVICE CONNECTED. DO NOT UNPAIR the first device and move on to device #2. Enter the code, let it PAIR and move on to device #3 doing the same. Once you've done all of your devices, you simply move 'into the zone' of each one and they should connect.
The Jabra, obviously, had to be turned on, but paired immediately. The BlueAnt ST3 turns on when it senses movement in the car, i.e. opening the door, etc. Once it's on, it pairs immediately. When I get home and are out of my car, I place the iPhone near the Motorola device and my cell number is now part of my home cordless system.
If I look at the Bluetooth setup in the general prefs, it shows all three devices as being paired. PAY NO ATTENTION TO THAT MAN BEHIND THE CURTAIN!!! IT ALL WORKS!!!

How can i share my ITunes library with 2 IPhones?

My wife and i each have administrator rights on our accounts and both have an IPhone 3G. How can i share the single ITunes library on our MacBook so that the music is synced when we connect our IPhones.
I have checked other posts but to no avail.
Thanks

Drag your \Music\iTunes\ folder to the Shared directory.In the Finder, right click - get info.
Go to *Sharing & Permissions* tab and make sure everyone has Read/Write permissions and click the Gear and *Apply to enclosed items*.
Hold Option and launch iTunes.
Select *Choose library* and select the _iTunes library file_ in the \Shared\iTunes\ folder.
Log out and your wife logs in.
Hold Option and launch iTunes.
Select *Choose library* and select the _iTunes library file_ in the \Shared\iTunes\ folder.
If hse has music in her iTunes library that was not in your , sh eFile -> Add to library and select those items in her \Music\iTunes\iTunes media folder.
Then she can delete \Music\iTunes\ folder.

Can I share my ipod music with my iphone music and have it all on my computer?

Im a complete novice with ipod and iphone.. I live alone...
I want to sync the music from my ipod to my computer to then put it all together with my iphone.. is this possible?

Your iPod syncs to the iTunes library on your computer, so you just need to add things to iTunes on the computer and resync.
In iTunes you can chose whether the iPod syncs to your whole music library or to a selected playlist. If your muic collection is bigger than the size of your iPod, just create a playlist called "iPod", put what you want in it, then sync to that.

How can I sync my new iPad with my iPhone and Gmail?

I just purchased an iPad air. I want to sync the iPad with my iPhone 5c and my Gmail account. Everytime I go to add go to add an email account it tells me my gmail password is wrong. How can I sync these devices? Thanks Jenni

When you add the account to the pad it should work just fine. You are doing somethjing subtly wrong with the password as you are setting the account up.
Try again, and pay real close attention to not only the password, but the other entries as you set up the account.
If you get frustrated, simply go to google, and reset your passwoird to something new that you will easily remember, then use that password. You will need to change the pword in your other devices as well to match the new one.

How can I sync my Verizon emails with my iPhone and iPad

I am having a problem with emails, I delete them on the iPhone and the iPad then a couple of hours later the deleted emails are back on both devices. What can I do to solve this issue. My gmail account works fine with no deleted emails showing back up again.

You'd be better off looking in the email support section of the Verizon website. That's where you're likely to find the various settings required for configuring the account. Often email providers give both POP and IMAP settings.

Can I sync the same ipod with a PC and a Mac?

I have been syncing with my MacBook, and now would like to sync also with my PC. Can this be done?

You can't "sync" that is automatically update an iPod from multiple libraries or computers. If you want to connect and use an iPod on more than one computer you need to change the update preference in the iPod Summary tab to "Manually manage music and videos" and click Apply.
Using iPod with Multiple computers
Managing content manually on iPod
If your iPod is formatted for Mac it won't run natively on a PC because Windows operating systems don't recognize Mac OS-formatted disks (HFS or HFS Plus formats): How to determine your iPod's disk format
Macs can read Windows drives so you could restore and reformat the iPod on your PC. iTunes will allow you to use an iPod formatted for Windows on a Mac. Apple currently only fully supports using the iPod shuffle in FAT32 format on Mac, in other words all future software updates for the iPod would have to be carried out in Windows to maintain the formatting. Alternatively there are third party programs that will allow you to use a Mac formatted iPod on Windows, this is one for instance gets good reviews. It's a commercial program so you'll have to purchase a license to use it:: XPlay 2
You can read another user's experience of using XPlay at this link: iPod on Mac and Windows
Something else to be aware of when using an iPod in manual mode is that the "Do Not Disconnect" message will remain on the display until you physically eject the device. In that case use Safely Remove Hardware icon in the Windows system tray on your desktop or check this link: Safely Disconnect IPod

Can you use a bluetooth headset with iPad 2? I.e. Plantronics Discovery 975.

I want to use Bria (softphone) as my "phone" on the iPad 2 and be able to answer calls from the bluetooth deivce. Ideally, I would want Bria to run in the background, my ipad on my desk or backpack and be able to answer calls. Anyone have experience with this?
Thanks,
Dan

No. You can use a wireless keyboard. A mouse would be pointless because there is no cursor.
