Connecting Bluethooth device with new latest I-touch

Can bluetooth device like headset be connected with new I-Touch 32gb with latest software. I do see the Blue icom top right of the unit but tried several unpairing & pairing, thru I-tune you name it. even had a appointment with an expert at Ottawa Mac store at Rideau shopping centre and the tech was absolutely useless. i even offer to buy one of the bluetooth headset in the store to test it and he refused as it was a factory sealed headset and if i opened it to test it and it didnt work they would not reimburse me.(Looser) So bottom line can the advertise bluetooth device can be used and how ?

Maybe that's where the problem is then. We have 3 Bluetooth devices that i either use on laptop to chat, listen to movie or web radio.
one of them is made by Blackberry, the other 2 my Motorola.
If it is so, I wondering why the tecky at the Mac store wouldn't have that information or tried to help.
Thanks for your comments, I'll keep monitoring if there is any solution.
Cheers,

Problems connecting IOS devices with new Comcast wireless cable modem?

Just installed a new cable modem from Comcast, it is their new high speed unit manufactured by Cisco. of the three IOS devices I've tried, all running currently the OS , are having problems connecting with the error "Unable to join the network " Home-XXXX" if you keep asking it may connect but I have to be persistant. My Devices are iPad 4 g Retna with 30pin connection, an iTouch ,latest model with camers, and current iPad mini. is it me or the modem?

You have probably already solved this issue, but I would hide the comcast wifi network (dont broadcast ssid) and make the password very hard. Make sure that put it on channel that does not conflict with your Airport Extream.
Connect the Comcast modem/router to the airport extream's wan port with an ethernet cable.
Comcast usually ships the DHCP enabled. Use the comcast DHCP server for your airport.
Configure the airport extream to "create a network" set the network to "bridge mode".
Name your network, broadcast the ssid all on the airport. Now all your devices will connect everytime. Use can use the Comcast "private" wireless network for maintenance, etc.
Just some thoughts... good luck

I've been trying to get a book sample and a dialogue box comes up saying: To receive book samples, you need a device with the latest versions of iOS and ibooks installed and Automatic Download enabled. I have iBooks installed and automatic download enabled. I don't know if it's talking about a new version of iOS on my iphone or my laptop. You people sure like to make things difficult.

trevbeats,
I had the same problem. It turned out the issue for me was that I had Automatic downloads turned off on my devices!
see below how to turn it on.
Tap Settings > iTunes & App Stores on your device.
Tap Sign In if you're not already signed in to the iTunes Store.
Enter your Apple ID and password.
Tap On/Off switch to enable or disable Automatic Downloads for each content type.

Problem getting connection to work with WRT54G and iPod Touch 4G

Hi, I just recently received a brand new iPod Touch 4G and I seem to be having connection troubles with it. This has also happened on my previous iPod (an iPod Touch 1G). This router has a pretty old firmware from like 2006. The problem is not that I can connect to the router and get the ipod to show the checkmark, but it is that I cannot get any network connection through the router. I have a Windows 7 laptop that connects perfectly fine using the router. Also, I believe my Nintendo DS Lite can connect flawlessly as well. I noticed that there seems to be a bit of trouble with Apple products connecting to Linksys routers in general. Does anyone know what may be causing my connection issues? When I got my iPod Touch 1G, it wouldn't connect from the get-go so I just ignored it and used the wifi at my university whenever I went there during the day.
If I need to provide any technical information, I can because I have access to the setup for the router. Thanks. :-)

Try changing the security mode to WEP and see if that works.
Open the setup page of the router.
Click on Wireless tab and go to Wireless MAC filter sub tab. Make sure that Wireless MAC filter is disabled on the router.
Try to upgrade the firmware on your router.
Connect the computer with the Ethernet cable to the router.
Download the latest firmware from Linksys website and save it on your computer. Open the setup page of the router. Click on Administration tab and go to Firmware upgrade sub tab. Browse the firmware file that you have already downloaded and upgrade it on your router.
After upgrading the firmware on the router, it is recommended that you should reset the router and reconfigure it. Press and hold the reset button on the router for 30 seconds. Release the reset button and wait for 10 seconds. Power cycle the router and reconfigure it.
Change some advanced wireless settings on the router. Click on Wireless tab and go to Advanced wireless settings. Change the Beacon interval to 75, RTS threshold to 2307 and fragmentation threshold to 2306. Save the settings.

How do you in xcode search devices in bluetooth and stablish connection other devices with iphone or ipad

hi everyone
how do you in xcode search devices in bluetooth and stablish connection other devices whit iphone or ipad ?
the all answer is good
and the source is enable for all

Bluetooth on iOS has three different functions:
o user level features -- For example, headsets. There is no developer opportunity here (well, you can play audio that comes out the headset, but you know what I mean :-).
o networking -- You can establish a PAN network to other iPhone OS devices with GameKit (going away) or Bonjour.
o accessories -- All Bluetooth accessory developers must go through the Made for iPod program. Once you have an MFI device you can then talk to it through ExternalAccessory framework.

Connecting to wifi with new ipod touch - is it posible??

I bought an iPod touch to bring travelling with me, both to carry music and to have access to wifi. I am now in Buenos Aires,unable to use the wifi feature (I don´t know if it´s ever worked as I don´t have wifi in my home and didn´t get chance to test it out anywhere else before I left the UK - stupid,I know)).It detects the network in a wifi zone but won´tlet me join,even if I have the right password etc.I know I´mprobably being an idiot about this but I´m finding it very frustrating.I don´t know if it could be related in any way, but there are also quite a few songs I bought on iTunes that look as though they are playing on the iPod,but don´t actually play with sound.Have I just got a dodgy gadget?

Maybe you should post this in the ipod touch forum.
This is the iphone forum.

Issues Connecting to internet with new Airport Express

Running a Macbook pro 15" - 10.4.11
I just bought a brand new Airport Express a few days ago. I just recently got my internet service through Comcast restored and am eager to get a wireless network up so I can play Xbox Live again.
So issue is this: I plug the ethernet cable from the Cable modem into the airport, the light goes green. The computer is registering a strong signal, Network preferences says Airport is connected to my network. However, Safari keeps saying its not connected to the internet. When i run system diagnostics, I get a green light on Airport, Network settings, system settings, and ISP. But the light on Internet and Server stay red, and Diagnostics says it can't fix the problem and I need to contact my ISP. Comcast said they couldn't help, my connection was fine and they even refreshed it to no avail. When I plug my Ethernet cable directly into my Macbook pro, I get on the 'net no problem. I'm dumbfounded.
I'd appreciate any sage wisdom offered. Thanks!
p.s: Also, when I run a connection test on Xbox 360, it picks up my network, connects quickly, ISP confirms, but ultimately fails at DNS Server. Hmm.

bl4ckr4bbit, Welcome to the discussion area!
Most cable modems require that you power them off when you switch the Ethernet connection from one device to another. Until you reset the modem it will not communicate with the new device. When the modem is powered on it detects the new device and starts talking to it.
Some cable modems have a reset button on the back for this reset.
Some cable modems have a small internal battery which must be removed for this reset to occur.
Sometimes the cable modems must be unplugged several hours or even overnight to allow equipment back at the ISP to reset.
Did you power off the cable modem when switching the Ethernet connection?

How to connect many devices with only one FW800 port in iMac?

Hi,
I am upgrading to a new Intel iMac from a 2004 vintage Dual2.0GHz PowerMac. I currently have 8x d2 Quadra drives chained by FW800, and 2x Iomega drives connected vis FW400 hub which also connects HD cams.
My questions is that with only one FW800 port in iMac, I think my devices connectivity is the following?
(1) Get a FW 800 hub (I can only find 2 port ones at the Apple store and BestBuy)
(2) Connect the d2 Quadras to one port of the FW800 hub
(3) Get a FW 800 to FW 400 cable
(4) Connect my 6 port FW400 hub to the 2nd port of the FW800 hub
Thanks for reviewing this solution, and I would also appreciate other suggestions or hear about your experiences if you have a similar set-up.
Will

In addition to your listed considerations, you should consider the following.
Many storage needs do not required FireWire 800 speed. For example, USB 2.0 works fine for your Time Machine backup drive. If you are just storing user data such as your iPhoto or iTunes media files, USB 2.0 is more than fast enough. So, as much as possible, if any of those external drives have USB 2.0 connections and the data storage does not need FireWire 800 speed, offload as much as possible to USB 2.0. I used to be a +FireWire snob+, but since getting an Intel iMac, I find that USB 2.0 works quite well for most data storage purposes.
There are new hard drives that are power efficient and as large as 2TB. Consolidate your data storage needs onto a smaller number of very large drives, partitioned as needed. This will make your setup more reliable (smaller number drives), and save reduce power consumption. If any of your current externals are SATA, you can probably replace the existing drive with an extra large one.
So, I think you setup should be, extra large FireWire 800 drive connected to the FireWire 800 port directly. Using a 9-pin to 6-pin cable, connect the FireWire 400 hub. Connect any non-storage FireWire 400 devices there. Do some data transfer testing to make sure having the 400 hub there on the chain does not cause the 800 connection to slow down.
Connect other drives as needed using USB 2.0, existing or new. Retire the smaller of your external drives.

HT4571 problem! connecting 3G network with new Ipad (verizon)

device: new Ipad verizon, 16gb
problem: I got the device from US and I never activate it's original Verizon sim card yet. I tried to use a 3G data sim card outside US.
              the dvice get antenna and bring the carrier name on top corner also say 3G beside it.
              but when I try to use safari for browsing the net, it says : " could not activate cellular data network"
              how can i fix it?
              my carrier says the sim card is activated and working (the 3G sim i mean not Verizon)
any suggestion?

Why are you using Windows print sharing with your nice network printer? This mode only supports printing, not scannning or faxing. The better way to do this is to attach the printer to your router with Ethernet or wirelessly so that all PCs (regardless of how they connect) can use all of it's features. Disconnect the USB cable and run the Wireless Setup Wizard (if you want to connect it wirelessly, otherwise, plug the Ethernet cable in to the printer and router) from the front of the printer (Setup >Network menu), then run the HP software to "Add a Device" on each PC.

Can't connect to Internet with new W520

I have a new ThinkPad W520 (4270). My ISP is RoadRunner from Time Warner Cable. The modem is Ubee U10C018. I am trying to make a direct wired connection using the USB option. I installed the drivers from the supplied disc, the message says they're installed, but the Device Manager says the USB Cable Modem has no installed drivers. I tried downloading the driver from the UbeeInteractive web site onto a flash drive using my old computer, which works fine with the aforementioned modem (and which I'm using now to post). I then reinstalled the driver from the flash drive onto the W520. Again, the message said the driver had been successfully installed, but the Device Manager says the modem has no installed driver (and "Update Driver" is greyed out). I spent two hours troubleshooting on the phone with TWC, who then said it wasn't their problem.
Help, anyone? Thanks for listening.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hi SSDee,
I wanted to use the USB connection for a couple of reasons: 1) No Ethernet cable was supplied with the modem, and 2) I have the modem connected to a USB hub and want to be able to quickly switch between two different laptops using the one USB cable to the hub, which also has a printer and a mouse receiver attached. (I did try connecting the modem directly to the new laptop without the hub just in case there was a problem with the hub, but that didn't work, either. It seems clear that this is a driver issue, since everything works fine on the older laptop.)
I am frustrated that no 64-bit drivers seem to be available, and the old drivers say they've been installed, but Device Manager begs to differ...
However, I think at this point I will obtain an Ethernet cable and try it.
Thanks for the response.

How do you connect distant devices with USB?

Hello,
What is the maximum length recommended for USB cables? I have read it is 5 metres which is about 15 feet. Is it common knowledge to strictly stay within this limit or is it possible to successfully use a 20 foot USB cable?
I am connecting an HP cp1160 deskjet printer to a 350 MHz G3 blue and white power mac. The printer is at the other end of my office about 10 to 20 feet away.
I have used a 10 foot USB cable in the past and it seems to work sufficiently but the cable is in an awkward position and so I would like to try a 15 foot USB cable or possibly a 20 foot USB cable if I can find this length.
When using a 15 foot USB cable to connect a printer is the signal weaker than if using a shorter cable? Will printing therefore be slower or cause print errors or lost data?
Can I segment two USB cables together with an adapter or a USB extension or is it common practice to segment lengths of USB cables with a powered USB hub? Can I segment two 15 foot USB cables with a powered USB hub in the middle to boost the signal through?
Yes, I should probably be looking at a print server via ethernet or a network printer however that is a long term solution I will set up another time. For now I will just use a long USB cable.
A few other USB questions:
Is there such an adapter as a "Y" shaped splitter adapter for USB that will allow two computers to connect to the same printer without having to keep switching the wires? (Like a telephone jack splitter but with USB.)
Most USB cables are type-A to type-B. Is there such a cable as a type-A to type-A USB cable?
Thank you

5 meters is the maximum length of a standard USB cable. Beyond that you may experience signal loss due to power loss in the cable. This can cause all kinds of errors, including failed print jobs if talking to a printer.
However, you can span longer distances via a number of different techniques. For example, you can put a powered USB hub in the middle - as long as you use a powered hub it re-injects the signal at full power, giving you another 5 meters.
Alternatively, you can look at something like NTI's USB Extender which uses a USB-to-Cat5 converter to span distances of up to 100 feet over Cat5 cable. It uses a similar concept - a powered device to re-inject the signal, the difference being that it uses Cat5 cable for the intermediate cable.
As for the two-computer question, yes and no. You can't have two computers connected to the same printer at the same time. There are devices such as USB switches, though, that let you connect two computers and one device (e.g. printer), and use a switch to choose which computer is attached to the printer. Most of them use a manual switch, so you'd need to push the button manually to select which computer is attached to the printer.
There are some 'auto' switches that let you use some key-combo on the computer to control the switch but you'd need to investigate Mac compatibility with them.

Can't Connect to Limewire with New Mac

Hi, hope someone can help me here -- no one responded at the Limewire forums. I'm having trouble connecting to Limewire on my new Mac: it just keeps attempting to connect but never has success.ere. I have my PC also on this network (details below) and it connects fine; I don't understand why if I use the same port settings on my Mac why it would not work. I've also tried the port settings recommended by Limewire and not had success. Thanks in advance for any help and let me know if any further info would be of help! Also, if you think there''s a better place to post this, let me know.
1.OS version? (eg: Windows 98) OSX 10.4.9
2.What firewalls you have? I know I have the built in Mac firewall but I followed the instructions and specifically opened port 14307 as both TCP & UDP. Not sure of other Firewalls.

<<2a) If you're not sure of other firewalls, it makes things hard to troubleshoot.
3) You're connecting from Work...? Does your work admins permit such frivolity through their firewalls?>>
I must have another firewall as the net first passes through a server here. The thing that confuses me though is that a port is obviously open on my pc that allows it to access Limewire: why wouldn't matching my port settings on the Mac duplicate this success? Yeah, my work setup is pretty casual. I am here A LOT during off hours which is really when I play with it; otherwise it just runs in the background except for an occasional search.
<<2) Can you please turn off Mac's firewall and try again. I know...I know...>>
I've tried this and it doesn't seem to make a difference.

Cannot connect to DB2 with new v7.1.1

Our DB2 has just been updated from version 6 to 7.1. Now, when I try to connect I get this error:
SQLException: COM.ibm.db2.jdbc.DB2Exception: [IBM][CLI Driver] SQL0332N There is no available conversion for the source code page "1208 UNKNOWN 3" to the target code page "". Reason Code "". SQLSTATE=57017
Error Code: -332
Do I need a new driver? I don't think so, because the docs say it works with version 7.1.
Any clues as to what I need to do to fix this?

FYI: I believe we've made some ground on this one. We strongly feel it is a character conversion problem. The DB2 docs say that when a client or application accessing a database is running in a code page that is different from the code page of the database, then a character conversion will occur. However, does anyone know how to solve this problem. Do we have to install something on the DB2 side that will interpret the code pages of JDBC?
