Direct Device Switch between 8330 units via Bluetooth

Is there a way to move all device configuration settings, applications, etc. directly from one 8830 to another via Bluetooth ?
I have an 'old' 8830 with something broken (physically) in the USB connector, so I cannot connect it to my laptop & despite my best efforts, I can't seem to get the Desktop Manager to recognize it through Bluetooth (even though it does pair properly) so that I can use the Device Switch Wizard.
I have a the replacement 8830 & just want to 'clone' my first one onto it and return the old one.
Have got the two 8830s paired, but there is no clear equivalent to the Device Switch Wizard for a direct device to device connection.
Any help greatly appreciated.
Cheers. Patio.

I don't believe you can. However, if you have the BBs paired to the PC, just sync to Outlook and resync back to the new device. That you can do.

I want to create serial communicatios between two notebooks via Bluetooth

Hi,
I'm trying to accomplish serial communications between two laptops via a Bluetooth connection.
The two laptops are NOT Toshiba notebook, but they are both running the Toshiba Bluetooth Stack For Windows. They are also both using the default Bluetooth Manager program that is supplied by Toshiba and Dell (just rebadged?).
Basically I can set up a connection no problems, but then I send serial data from one computer and watch the receiving serial port on the other computer but nothing ever arrives.
Are there any good tutorials for this? It would be nice to have something for the Toshiba Bluetooth Manager in particular as the windows and buttons will have the names as explained in the tutorial.
Thanks in advance.
Adam

I tried it for tests purpose via a hyperterminal connection and it worked.
Maybe the description contains also some helpful information for you.
Here is it:
PC1:
Start "Bluetooth Settings->Custom Mode->Select Remote PC->Select 'Serial Port'->Accept proposed COM port (in my case COM40)->Confirm wizard windows
until setup is finished".
PC2:
Start "HyperTerminal->Select COM7"
PC1:
Start "HyperTerminal->Select COM40 (in my case. See step 1 above)"
PC1, PC2:
Enter the same Passkey if security is turned on e.g. "0000"
PC1:
Everything what you type into HyperTerminal should be visible in HyperTerminal of PC2 and vice versa.

IOS7 switch between dock connector and bluetooth

Hi, in iOS6 when there were two potential outputs for sound you could drag up a little orange icon in Music or Pandora and switch between the dock connector and Bluetooth. I cannot find this functionality in iOS7. Can you please point the way? Thanks!

Appears that if I turn the headset off/on it resolves the issue. Off I go to the headset mfg. Appears to be their issue.

How do I switch from"Offline Mode" when using Firefox on an android device connected to the internet via Bluetooth.

I have been using my tf300. Everytime I try to open Firefox on the tablet while using a Bluetooth connection, the only screen that Firefox opens is a generic screen displaying "Offline mode". Is there a way to switch it to online mode or am I only able to use the browser on a wifi signal??

I am one of the individuals who use a third-party app to tether internet connection from my phone for my tablet. When using the stock browser, i have no problems, but when i try to use firefox, all the is displayed is an "Offline Mode" screen. This all would not be a problem except for the fact that a bunch of my bookmarks are on Firefox. So how do i switch settings for the pade to be "Online vs. Offline"???

When I connect to a personal hotspot via bluetooth it disconnects the wifi on the serving device, why?

I know this has been working before, and I really need to connect my iPad via Bluetooth to my iPhone so that I can then use the Wireless via my iPhone. Unfortunately, every time I connect to the iPhone via Bluetooth the WiFi on the iPhone disconnects.
What's up with that?

I've used it before. Turn on hotspot on iPhone. Turn on Bluetooth on both devices. Connect to hotspot via Bluetooth. iPad can now use wireless via iPhone.
Now it's stopped working and makes the wireless cut off on the iPhone when the Bluetooth is in use. It makes no sense.
In case you're wondering why I want to do this, there are mac address limitations in place on my network, and only one device is authorised.

Itunes unresponsive when switching between two devices

For God Sake help me with this,
i have so many apps on my iTunes(mac) ,since i updated my itunes from 11 to 12 it has been my worst nightmare ever..
whenever i attach two or more devices ,switching between devices it becomes unresponsive so that i have to force quit iTunes
i googled this issue,tried lots of things.but no success
plzzzzzz help

Paul,
Thanks for responding.
I'm still confused as to which field the script goes in and how to enter it in relationship to any existing script.
Instead of me trying to explain verbally, I'll show you what I have.
Document Hierarchy:
Subform path & script: (I'm assuming I need one for each subform)
xfa.host.resetData("xfa.form1.Page1.subform1");
xfa.host.resetData("xfa.form1.Page1.subform2");
"Radio Button List" Click Event script that shows/hides subforms:
form1.Page1.FLOC.RadioButtonList::click - (JavaScript, client)
if (this.rawValue == 1)
    Subform1.presence = "visible";
    Subform2.presence = "hidden";
else if (this.rawValue == 2)
    Subform2.presence = "visible";
    Subform1.presence = "hidden";
if (this.rawValue == 1)
    Efficiency.presence = "visible";
if (this.rawValue == 2)
    Efficiency.presence = "visible";
I've tried putting the script inside the curly brackets, outside the curly brackets, at various locations within the above script, but no matter where I put it, it clears the entire form.
Would you be so kind as to re-write the above script properly so I can see what it's supposed to look like.
Thanks!

How can I link my iPad Air and iPhone 4s via Bluetooth, please? They haveBluetooth turned on but will not find each other.

How can I link my iPad Air and iPhone 4s via Bluetooth, please? They both have Bluetooth turned on but will only search and find nothing. The words 'Now Discoverable' appear under the search panel.

for the devices to find each other via Bluetooth you would need to turn on the iPhones cellular hotspot and then let them search for each other. As far as I have found this Bluetooth connection is only for connecting the iPad to internet via iPhones data plan.
To transfer photos you could setup a new photo stream and put the photos you want transferred in it. When it syncs to the iPad you can save directly to the camera roll and delete the photo stream. You may also be able to delete the photos old photos and re-add them to photo stream so it looks like they are new to the iPad.

Switching between TM destination disks?

I run 2 separate TM backups of my laptop - one at home, one at work. This gives me the peace of mind that wherever my laptop is, there is a current backup somewhere else.
The only drawback is that there's no quick way to switch between the backups - you have to call up 'Browse other Time Machine disks' and then wait while it faffs about, then select the one it finds.
Is there a utility to switch between existing destinations via the menu bar for example? Or can someone write a script so that you can create a double-clickable app which just switches to a different backup destination?
TIA
James

That's not what I meant - I'm not trying to view the contents when the disk isn't attached. The key word in the question is 'physically'.
I have a TM backup at home and one at work
When I move to a different location, I would like an easy way of switching to the backup at that location - so that TM will continue backing up. Otherwise it still thinks it should be using the backup at the other location and obviously doesn't back up.
When I go to the TM browser I would expect it to show TM volumes which are available at that location - but it doesn't. I have to go to TM prefs and select a different destination disk. I am wondering if this is because the backup is a network mount and not physically/directly attached to the computer.
Thanks

Nokia 6300 - play via Bluetooth

Hi,
is there any possibility how to switch off the "play via Bluetooth" function?
Every time I connect my BT handsfree, the music player starts playing all sounds in the phone memory. Annoying :-(

Try disconnecting the BT connection and reconnect it again. Should work fine then. =)

Looking for a bluetooth headphone for my Macbook Air and Ipad Mini, I am not looking for a headphone that needs a transmitter to be connected to the source rather a headphone that can be connected directly via bluetooth to the source device

I am desperately looking for a bluetooth headphone that would be compatible to my Macbook air and Ipad mini both. I am more of looking for a headphone that does not need a transmitter device to be connected to the source (in this case Macbook Air and Ipad Mini) and headphone acting as a receiver, rather need a headphone that would be connected directly via bluetooth to the source, it would be great if multiple apple devices be connected simultaneously. Please suggest some good headphones.

Hey sorry for the late reply, I was busy to figure out alternatives as harman kardon was a difficult affair to find and acquire, but the good news is I managed to get hold of alternative.
Sony I assume recently launched a Bluetooth headphone DR-BTN200 which is compatible to my MacBook Air , iPad mini and android phone galaxy s2 with ease, the sound quality is pretty good as compared to other brands of Bluetooth headphones I checked compatible or incompatible to apple devices alike, this is definitely what I was looking for, costed me 7990 INR, this is highly recommended for ppl who are confused, I carried my devices to the store and checked before I bought a pair and pretty much happy,
The best part of this is its battery backup, I have used this hours for 3-5 days but this has not drain even then, but I do keep this charging once in 2-3 days just to keep this ready otherwise it does not even ask for it neither the quality of sound drops after 2-3 days of use.
This is over the ear headphone which is very soft but it's get sweaty around the ear I guess that's bound to happen.
Do get back to me for any other details, would be glad to share with all :)

Apple Maps does not give directions via Bluetooth

I have a iPhone 5 with IOS7.0.4 installed. Apple maps will not give me voice directions via Bluetooth in my car. I have tried to do this in several cars but it doesn't work. Google Maps attaches itself to To Bluetooth and gives voice directions over the cars speaker system every time.
Is there a setting I am missing?

I have just returned from a trip across Italy in a brand new Suzuki hire car. It had a bluetooth audio system and after some fiddling I got the setup working really well.
Pairing was not easy (the car came with no manual). After much trial and error I got my iPhone 4S (OS 7.1.2) paired (You get the car's audio device into 'pairing mode' at the same time looking at your iPhone's 'Settings Bluetooth window for a new device to appear. You then enter the passcode given by the car into the phone. You can check that its paired: A message should come up on the car, the iphone says connected against the new device. And starting a track playing in 'music' it should then be played over the speakers - if not there is a menu on the phone which enables you to select the car's device.
If your Apple Maps directions are working fine on the phone's internal speaker (enter start & destination, press Route, then Start), then they should now work over the car's audio system. Furthermore;
- Each time a direction is given the music track gets muted
- Likewise phone calls should also mute out the music (not sure about the directions tho - didn't get any calls in Italy!)
- On this car, the music started playing automatically thereafter from my phone every time I got into the car! I thought this initially extremely cool, because on my car back home (a Parrot kit) it takes a while to get it going.
A couple of 'glitches' which someone on here may know the answer to!
- Whilst you can select options for the volume of the directions : Loud / medium/ low, changing the volume of the music also softened the directions. I was in the car with four others and getting everything 'right' proved a bit of a challenge
- When returning to Naples we got given a wrong address which sent us to the wrong place (with a flight to catch after) putting everyone into a panic:- 'Switch the bloody music off!" I was told! . I tried to but found this hard to achieve without also killing the directions (which we were relying on).
Note that we only had one phone paired! Each setup varies with regards multiple phones and how to switch between them. This is a headache in our family, as we have 5 iPhones and everyone drives. Multiple phones are often not handled well.

Print via bluetooth direct to printer

I have the 8330 BB Curve (my 3rd blackberry) and I am trying to print directly from my bb to a printer via Bluetooth. Now I was in a store and made it work with a multifunction HP printer. I then took home a Canon IP100 portable and got a bluetooth adaptor. Canon, however does not support direct printing, only HP. So I returned it and got a portable HP H470, but the wi-fi version (couldn't get the bluetooth one easily) and tried putting the bluetooth adaptor in it, but cannot get it to print. Any suggestions?

hello,
it is a HP H470 issue. Contact HP support and ask them if there is a way of using that device with a bluetooth adapter.

Blackberry Device Manager can't find 9320 Bluetooth device (even Bluetooth is switched on and set to Discoverable)

I want to sync my Blackberry 9320 via Bluetooth to a Windows 7 Professional machine using a Bluetooth adapter. Syncing using USB cable works fine.
I can Bluetooth pair with the 9320 and also send / receive files to /from the Windows 7 machine. Fantastic !
HOWEVER, Blackberry Device Manager can not find the 9320 Bluetooth device (even Bluetooth is switched on and set to Discoverable) - see screen shots below.
By the way I have already tried (amongst other things) “Manually Install RIM Virtual Serial Ports in Microsoft® Windows® 7” on http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gK2n5dHxGHI Unfortunately, this does now work - the drivers do load up OK and remove the warning signs when view in Windows Device Manager, but Blackberry Device Manager still can't see my 9320.
Please help !

I have the exact same problem with my 9360. I have also tried all the fixes I could find on the Internet with no luck. I have posted a request as well. I will let you know if I find a solution. What gets me though is that this appears to be a long standing issue with no obvious fix! Best of luck.

bluetooth on the ipod touch only allows for the use of bluetooth stereo headphones and peer-to-peer gaming between two ipod touches (or presumably iphones)
