Cannot bluetooth transfer with a sony ericsson Z710i

I bought a belkin USB bluetooth adapter for my laptop (running Tiger). It pairs and transfers files back and forth with my own sony phone but although it pairs with my wifes new Z701i it can't transfer a file to it saying it is unable to and there was a transfer error. Could it be the phone? Has anyone else had a problem with this? Any help or comment would be appreciated.
iBook G4 933mhz   Mac OS X (10.4.1)  

It's not the phone - it's the Belkin...
Belkin USB Bluetooth Adapters are known to be not 100% compatible with more recent Sony Ericsson Phones and more recent versions of Mac OS X.
Apple made significant changes to the Bluetooth system software around Mac OS X 10.4.6 - 7 and since then many third-party USB Bluetooth Adapters don't fully work.
The only external USB Bluetooth Adapter supported by Apple for use on the Mac is the D-Link DBT-120.
BTW, an iSync Phone Plugin for the Sony Ericsson Z710i, to allow full Address Book and iCal syncing is available here.

  • Using Sony Ericsson Z710i with iSync

    Does anybody know of a free solution to configure iSync/ address book with a Sony Ericsson Z710i?
    I found a lot of spam from a company that starts with Fei and ends with sar.
    Please don't post a link to them.

    I found an article on editing the plist for iSync.
    Article link:http://www.briantoth.com/razr_v3c/editmeta.php
    The gest:
    1. Locate iSync.app, usually in your Applications folder.
    2. Right-click or ctrl+click iSync.app and choose "Show Package Contents" from the contextual menu.
    3. Dig through the following folders: Contents > PlugIns > ApplePhoneConduit.syncdevice > Contents > PlugIns > PhoneModelsSync.phoneplugin > Contents > Resources. In that folder will be a file called MetaClasses.plist and icons for all the supported phones.
    4. Open MetaClasses.plist in a text editor or preferably Apple's Property List Editor which comes with with Developer Tools package. You did make a backup first, right?
    5. Once done editing, just save the file. You may or may not need to re-add your phone to iSync afterwards.
    Add this block this block of text at step 4:

  • Unable to transfer photos from Sony Ericsson P1i to Tiger 10.4.11

    Hi, How do I transfer photos from Sony Ericsson P1i to my PB G4? I have tried Sony's Media Sync, Isync, Bluetooth and none has worked. Desperately seeking ways to save all my valuable photos on this phone. Hope someone can help. Many thanks.

    Am I to install the m600kext and then change the m600 id = 57392 / p1i id = 57490 accordingly?
    I think so, locate this file...
    /System/Library/Extensions/M600USBFileEnabler.kext
    Highlight it and Show Package Contents, a window will open that has a Contents folder showing, inside that folder is the file we need...
    Info.plist
    Drag that to Text Edit & you'll see this...

  • Sony Ericsson Z710i unsupported ?

    I just bought a new fone, the Sony Ericsson Z710i, and was very disappointed to find it is unsupported in isync.
    Is there any way I can get my address book to sync with my new fone, or will apple eventually update isync to include this fone.

    You can sync it already using an iSync Phone Plugin from:

  • I have iphone 6 with ios 8.1.1. The bluetooth pairs with my sony car radio and everything works fine. However, the iphone won't stop searching for other devices.

    I have an iPhone 6 with ios 8.1.1 operating system. The Bluetooth pairs with my Sony car radio and works fine. However, the iPhone will not stop searching for other devices. This does not seem to affect anything, but I can't help but think it is using battery power.

    One possibility: 
    How do you know it is searching for other devices?  Because you opened Settings > Bluetooth?

  • Bluetooth Faxing for GSM Sony Ericsson 630 in Tiger

    Please look for the following in the Finder Help:Mac Help
    "bluetooth fax"
    Worked like a charm with the above phone model on my Powerbook 1.5Ghz with internal Bluetooth. Please note after following the instructions closely, the Fax driver is added, but does not appear until you send the fax, and the "Bluetooth-modem" is chosen in the "Set up Fax Modem"
    This solution does not require a GPRS connection, but will work like any phone call on your phone.
    Enjoy.

    As the info contains some screen pics, I cannot include it here. But the question arises, are you using 10.4 - Tiger? Did you choose finder and then go into the help menu there? I would like to stress that I only tried it with the phone that I mentioned above.
    I include the text part from the Help item below:
    "Faxing over Bluetooth is possible in Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger (and Mac OS X 10.3 Panther), but not all wireless carriers and phones support faxing—and this function is not supported by AppleCare.
    If you do want to add a Bluetooth-Modem fax device in Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must add it manually. Note: Faxing must be supported by the phone and wireless carrier, too, for this to work. Follow these steps to add the device in Tiger:
    If you're using a Bluetooth adapter, connect it to your computer if it isn't.
    From the Apple menu, choose System Preferences.
    Click Print & Fax to display the preferences.
    Click the Printing tab.
    Click the plus sign button; the Printer Browser window opens.
    Option-click the More Printers button.
    In the sheet that appears, choose Advanced from the top pop-up menu. (If you don't see Advanced in the menu, click Cancel and repeat the previous step.)
    From the Device pop-up menu, choose Bluetooth-Modem. (If this doesn't appear, be sure that your Bluetooth adapter is connected.)
    From the Printer Model pop-up menu, choose Other.
    In the resulting "Choose a File" dialog, select your Mac OS X volume icon.
    Click on the following folders—in this order—to navigate to the PrintCore.framework Resources folder:
    System
    Library
    Frameworks
    ApplicationServices.framework
    Frameworks
    PrintCore.framework
    Resources
    Select the appropriate folder for the language you are using. For example, North American English users should select English.lproj.
    Select Fax.ppd and click Choose.
    Click Add.
    Your Printer Browser window should look something like this after you've completed the steps: "

  • CME 10 cannot attended transfer with BLF button

    Good morning!
    I'm having an issue with a client's CME in which they can no longer do an attended transfer using BLF speed dial buttons.  Yesterday morning, their CME router was rebooted for unrelated reasons.  Prior to this reboot, attended transfers could be done using BLF buttons but NOT by dialing the number.  After the reboot this has reversed so you can do an attended transfer when you dial but if you hit the BLF button it automatically performs a blind transfer.
    The client has stated that if they have to have one or the other they'd like it to go back to the way it was working prior to yesterday morning as the receptionist has everyone in the organization on BLF buttons on a side car and most transfers need to be attended rather than blind.  I have tested with other phones and confirmed its organization wide and not just on his phone.

  • Can I sync a N97 with a Sony Ericsson W995??

    Hello!
    I have a work colleague who has a W995 that I would like to synchronize with. I am considering buying a N97 and now wonder if I can sync calendar and contacts with W995 using a N97?

    it is theoretically possible that he "phone switch" application in the N97 could drag the info over from the SE, but there is no guarantee tha this would work. Sometimes this method doesn't even like different Nokia OS versions, let alone a different marque.

  • Unable to transfer pictures to Sony Ericsson K550i

    I can transfer photographs FROM my phone, it shows up as Drive H, but when I try and put pictures ON the phone I get an error messages saying something like No Device Detected.
    Any suggestions on a solution?

    I guess you are connecting phone in File Transfer mode. If you are able to browse phone folder then you should be able to put pictures as well.
    Sometimes windows displays USB drives but those are not usable. Try restarting windows.

  • Cannot pair BH202 with Sony K510i in handsfree mod...

    Hi, I am trying to pair my recently bought Nokia BH202 headset with my Sony Ericsson K510i. The pairing works fine and so does the headset but I can use only the headset profile and not the handsfree profile. I can therefore receive and make calls etc., but cannot use the voice dialing and other voice control features via the BH202 headset. I do know that both BH202 and K510i support the bluetooth handsfree profile.
    Are the handsfree modes of BH202 and K510i incompatible in some way (version mismatch perhaps)? Or do I need to do something special while pairing or later?
    Any help will be appreciated.

    Well, interoperability is the whole point of defining standards.
    What good would BT be if devices from different vendors did not
    interoperate?
    In this specific instance, I do know that both devices (BH202 and K510i) support the hands-free profile, so the combination should work in theory. Can someone educate me on what might be going wrong in practice and whether it is at all possible to work around or fix the problem?
    Thanks.

  • Problems with my 6300 paired with Sony Ericsson B/...

    I hope someone can help with this...
    When I pair my 6300 (firmware v.5.5) with my Sony Ericsson stereo Bluetooth headset (HBH-DS970) I get a message "Only Audio Files will be transferred."
    ONLY the music controls work! No phone audio or functions at ALL: no phone audio, the answer phone button does not work, and caller ID function doesn't work.
    Has anyone else had this problem, or know of a fix?
    Thanks

    The full retail install disks are available here and at any Apple Store and many computer retailers. Also, check the system requirements. Be sure your Mac has firewire and enough ram to run Tiger. At this point you might be able to find the disks at a slightly discounted price because of the coming release of 10.5 Leopard. But be sure it is the black disk, boxed version if possible.
    EDIT: And the install disc for Tiger is a DVD, so be sure your iMac has DVD.
    This may help to narrow down the model iMac you have.

  • ISync 3.0, Mac OS 10.5.2, Sony Ericsson w850i device not supported

    I have a MacBook Santa Rosa that came with Leopard. I want to use iSync 3.0 to synchronize my address book with my Sony Ericsson (SE) W850i. My phone is on the Leopard feature bragging list: http://www.apple.com/macosx/features/isync/
    Yet, when I pair my phone to the MacBook via Bluetooth and try to add the device in iSync, it finds the phone and then I am told that "This device is not supported by iSync."
    So today I updated to 10.5.2. No change. The Feisar plug-in won't even download. It reminds me that my phone is supported in Leopard. So what gives?
    I have tried unpairing and re-pairing, deleting the connection from my phone, restarting my MacBook, turning Bluetooth on and off on both devices, and resetting the iSync History.

    Copied from another thread in which I replied, perhaps it may offer some insight;
    After setting up WinXP Pro under Parallels and installing/running Motorola's software, I was able to finally add contacts to the phone. But this wasn't easy. I first exported vCards from Apple's Address Book and imported the same into Outlook's Addresses. Motorola's software has a pretty straightforward interface, but isn't perfect. In order to "Save Changes", it was necessary to unplug and re-plug the phone to complete the process. During all this, the Motorola software unexpectedly quit a few times.
    But here's the kicker; after all this work, I thought to give iSync one more try... and it worked!!! I cannot explain how or why it suddenly recognized the phone, but imagine it has something to do with the fact the Motorola's software update is the key.

  • Sony Ericsson w705 connects to Airport Extreme but can't get data

    My Sony Ericsson w705 has wifi, it connects to my Airport Extreme (802.11g 2004 model) network but cannot receive data to surf the net. I have managed to connect the handset to another wifi network so my settings must be the issue. I have been told that once connected I should be able to see a DNS address in my network settings.
    I connect to my network wirelessly with my macbook without any issues.
    When I connect to my network with the Sony Ericsson w705 there is no DNS address in the connection settings. Any ideas how I can fix this.
    Thanks in advance
    pd

    Thanks for the tips, Bob & Bill. We've done a complete shutdown/restart cycle of modem, AirPort Extreme (sorry for the confusion on that!), and computer (turning back on in order from the wall on out), but we hadn't tried leaving the modem off for longer than a couple minutes, so I'll try that. Although it seems strange to me that it would talk to the computer but not to the base station. I've never seen that happen.
    Bob, his connection is satellite, so the modem is whatever goes with that. I don't know how different it is from a DSL modem or a cable modem. (He lives out in the sticks, and that's his only option other than dial-up.)
    Will post results ASAP.

  • "Detection of service failed" - Satellite A300 to Sony Ericsson c905

    Hello!
    I'm getting the "Detection of service failed" on my A300 Toshiba laptop whenever I try to connect with my Sony Ericsson c905 cell phone.
    I'm able to connect with other phones, and the Sony Ericsson is able to connect to other laptops.
    I've tried upgrading the Bluetooth stack to 6.4 - didn't help.
    Any ideas?

    Same problem. Satellite Pro U400 and new Sony Ericsson C510. Latest firmware on mobile phone and latest drivers (bt stack) 6.40.00(T). Low security, visible devices, updated Windows XP SP3.
    When i select phone in device list, icon is blue/white. After i click "Next", turns to blue/green and pop dialog with "Detection of service failed".
    Older Sony Ericsson Z550i paired without any problems.
    This is my first, and last Toshiba product. Every next day it is a bigger disappointment for me. Now, if i want to conect to the internet, i need to switch phone. That is bad. Really bad. Wait, not bad, that is bullsh1t. Maybe have toshiba good hardware, bud software sux. TrueSuite Access Manager for fingerprint sometimes didn't start, so can't login with finger. Wifi sometimes lost connection - but original latest Intel drivers fix that.
    My only hope is, that Taiyo Yunden/Broadcom makes own drivers.. Googling now..
