Can't get bluetooth headphones to work with MacBook Pro

I just bought a pair of Bluetooth stereo headphones. They work fine with my iPad and my iPhone. I paired them successfully with Bluetooth on my MacBook Pro. However, when I try to use them with my MacBook Pro it asks if I want to use them as stereo or mono. No matter which I choose I immediately get the error message "There was an error connecting to your headset. Make sure it is turned on and within range." How do I solve this?

There is a forum however it's not the most intuitive to locate. It's located in the Snow Leopard forum and can be found at:

How can I get firefox 4 to work with Linkman pro?

I upgraded to to firefox 4 and my Linkman pro bookmark software build 7.8.1.0 no longer works with it.

There's two hyperlinks near the top of this page to install the latest Firefox Addon for Linkman. <br />
http://www.outertech.com/en/firefox-bookmark-manager
It can also be installed manually. Make sure you are visiting this page with Firefox and then click '''here''' to reinstall the '''LinkmanFox''' Addon. <br />

HT3310 how do i get my headphone to work with the iphone?

how do i get my headphone to work with the iphone? Are there some settings
that I need to turn on so I can use my headphone while talking on the phone?

Are you using the earbuds that came with the iPhone? If you are using other earphones, it's possible that they need an adaptor to work with the iPhone's recessed headphone jack.

Is there an adapter can i get so square will work with the otterbox i have on my iphone

Is there an adapter can i get so square will work with the otterbox i have on my iphone, I love the otterbox and want to keep it on all the time. not only does it protect my iphone it, it makes it easy for me to hold because I have trouble with my hands. please help

That's a good question. The main problem with the Square readers is that the plug is designed to send data to devices, rendering most headphone extension cables useless.
Reading another forum I saw this: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001BN7XSM
Give that a try. Claims to work perfectly for Square. NOT headphones.

I have an Retina display MacBook Pro with HMDI out port. I also have an HDMI to Component cable with Audio Plugs. How can I get HDMI out to work with this cable when plugged into the Component and Audio ports on my TV?

I have an Retina display MacBook Pro with HMDI out port. I also have an HDMI to Component cable with Audio Plugs. How can I get HDMI out to work with this cable when plugged into the MacBook Pro and connected to the TVs Component and Audio in ports.

Will not work. To my knowledge, dual converting like that isn't supported. The Mac must detect the connected video output device and that sort of info cannot be done across an analog component uni-directional connection.

How can I get my ipod to work with itunes?

When I connect my ipod classic into my new computer it seems that itunes does not recognize it. How can I get my ipod to work with itunes? I'm afraid to disconnect my ipod because the display is saying Do Not Disconnect.

1. Update iTunes to the latest version. Plug in your iPod. If iTunes still can't recognize it, then in iTunes in the top left corner click help> run diagnostics. On the box that comes up, check the last two things. Click next and it should identify your iPod.
2. Click on your windows start menu. Type in "services". Click on it and when it pops up, on the bottom of it click on "standard". Now Scroll down to find "Apple Mobile Device" Right click it when you see it and click on "Start". When it has started, close iTunes and replug in your iPod and it should show up.
3. Check the USB cable
4 Verify that Apple Mobile Device Support is installed
5. Restart the Apple Mobile Device Service and verify that the Apple Mobile Device USB Driver is installed.
6. If you just want to add some photos, songs and movies from computer to your devices, you can use an iTunes alternative to do the job
7. Check for third-party software conflicts.

Can't get out.print to work with XML jsp tags

<jsp:scriptlet>
if(ErrorTrap == true) {
out.println("<tr><td colspan=\"center\" align=\"center\">There was" an error while processing the form</td></tr>");
ErrorTrap = false;
</jsp:scriptlet>
I can't get this script to work with the XML stype jsp tags. It keeps telling me the <jsp> tags are untermintaed. Is there a special trick to fix this or do I have to use the non-XML type tags?

Sorry, I didn't mean to put the extra " in the out.println text string. :-/

How can I get elements 11 to work with 16 bits photos?

In the expert mode of Photoshop Elements 11, I can only work with 8 bits photos. How can I get Elements 11 to work with 16 bits photos?

No, you can still buy photoshop cs6 (perpetual license) if one doesn't want to subscribe to the cloud version (photoshop cc version 14)
Either way is expensive compared to photoshop elements.

How can I get Phillips Fidelio to work with ios7

How can I get Phillips Fidelio to work with ios7. It worked with the previous operating system

Not sure if this is the same problem others are having, but I used to play music on my Philips Fidelio by opening the Music app on my ipad and clicking on the box with the triangle (which has now disappeared in the new OS). However, if you have the philips dockstudio app, the box still appears there and I was able to get my speakers working again.

How can I get my iMac to work with scanners?

How can I get my iMac to work with scanners? The scanners scan just fine, but not to my iMac. I've tried Epson and HP all-in-ones; it makes no diffference. I'm becoming extremely displeased, but don't know at whom I should be displeased, the printer guys or Apple. Help?
