Does the bluetooth headphone feature not work at this time?

I have tried 2 different bluetooth headphones. They work with iPhone and iPod, but not the PowerBook.
My PowerBook recognizes and pairs with the headphones, but won't connect. Am I missing a step?

Hello -
I had a set of bluetooth headphones - a while back. And I was able to make them work. Though, they aren't as great as you might think. My audio quality was "okay" at best. And you can also only have one bluetooth device hooked up at a time (I prefer to have a mouse!)
You may need to go into the System Prefs and set where the audio output is going to. I do not remember if I had to this but it seems a logical step as I sometimes need to this on my PowerBook when I hookup to new speakers.

    turn your ipad off by holding the sleep wake button for 5 seconds and slide to turn off then turn it back on and the apps should be finished and if the apps didnt finish just redownload them

  • I connected my laptop to the tv and it has worked before. this time only the laptop flashes the blue screen and the tv is saying no signal. when i tried to check the dispaly arrangement it says this:The Arrangement tab of Displays preferences is hidden

    i connected my laptop to the tv and it has worked before. this time only the laptop flashes the blue screen and the tv is saying no signal. when i tried to check the dispaly arrangement it says this:The Arrangement tab of Displays preferences is hidden because you only have a single display attached to this computer.

    It is not properly connected to the network.
    Make sure location is set correctly
    DNS should be on auto (settings - general - network)
    Try ethernet
    Signal strength on device won't account for issues, you would need a network report from istumbler, netstumbler or similar. This will show accurate signal strength along with noise and nearby networks

  • InDesign auto-size frame feature not working in real time in InCopy why?

    We have just recently migrated from InCopy CS4 to CS6 to take advantage of the new features like the auto resize frame option, however it now seems that this feature is not working in real-time.
    Basically the steps are needed to be complete before it auto-resizes the frame in InCopy, we use both layout and assignment based workflows:
    1. From an ID document ('doc1'), exported a 'layer' to IC, certain frames are set to auto-size in height using the text frame options. So that editorial can review and make changes to text and the frame should resize according to the specifications set. IC stories are saved to a folder located in a content folder inside the top issue working folder.
    2. Editorial opens the IC software, then opens the ID 'doc1'. Check’s out correct .icml file and makes edits to frame with auto resize.
    3. Frame does not resize according to text frame set options and InCopy file does not respond in same fashion as InDesign.
    4. Change only occurs when InCopy file is closed and updated in InDesign, which is frustrating as this feature would save huge amounts of time serving editorial requests.
    Has anybody experienced this type of workflow problem? If anyone can provide mw with some pointers as to what can I do to get this to update in real time perhaps run a script? Update file in InCopy and refresh I will very much appreciate their assistance. I have run out of ideas.
    Thanks!

    We've had all sorts of problems with this feature as it should've worked straight out of the box but after some testing we have found that its something to do with the way you open the actual file in InCopy. Which is far from ideal and should have been UAT by Adobe before release.
    This will not work consistently work if you open the designed .indd or .icma file in InCopy using the file open command within the application.
    If you need this to work, the InCopy user has to open the .indd or .icma file by dragging and droping from OS windows explorer into InCopy, we use Windows 7 acrros all the teams. Check out .icml files add text changes to the set auto resized frames, this process will expand/collapse the frames to fit the content but as you have to use the drag and drop method to open the .indd and .icma file, 2 users cannot access the same time doc at the same time (a serious flaw in the programming architecture!) which stops people working in parallel. Save changes, check in .icml content and close .indd or .icma.
    However the flaw comes in if you then open the .indd and .icma file in InCopy using the file open command within the application, before an InDesign user opens and saves the file (updates the design). The corrections added in the previous stage above, will not show the frames expanded/collapsed to take in the added text and instead show over matter???? The only way around this is to ask an InDesign user to open, update and save the design that way the InCopy user will see the same result no matter what file open method they use.
    Another suggestion is to design the page to have some of the auto resize frames anchored within main body of text and that way the frames will expland/collapse when checking out and editing the content. However, this does cause issues with InDesign crashing etc. so we have tried to stop this method within the working group.
    Have you experienced other more serious issues with InDesign crashing consistently when re-importing .icml files? See other forums here:

    As far as we can see this is a major flaw in how the application(s) work, we have an enterprise agreement with Adobe and purchase a large volume of Adobe products globally but so far the technical support team are unable to find a solution to this and I'm not hopeful of any resolution soon even with the new release of Adobe CC.

  • I have a 2010 Macbook pro with the option to 'pinch' on the track pad to zoom on the screen, and its not working with this new beta version of firefox i downloaded.. but it's working on the rest of my laptop. Is there some way to turn it on?

    When I try to pinch in and out on the trackpad it's not working, but then it will work on my desktop when I minimize firefox.

    First, back up all data immediately, as your boot drive might be failing.
    There are a few other possible causes of generalized slow performance that you can rule out easily.
    Reset the System Management Controller.
    If you have many image or video files on the Desktop with preview icons, move them to another folder.
    If applicable, uncheck all boxes in the iCloud preference pane.
    Disconnect all non-essential wired peripherals and remove aftermarket expansion cards, if any.
    Check your keychains in Keychain Access for excessively duplicated items.
    If you have more than one user account, you must be logged in as an administrator to carry out this step.
    Launch the Console application in the same way you launched Activity Monitor. Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
    View ▹ Show Log List
    from the menu bar.

  • ThinkPad T440 - Bluetooth headphones do not work

    I have a ThinkPad T440.
    It has Windows 7.
    Issue: The ThinkPad T440 recognizes the headphones when i turn the headphones on. But the ThinkPad T440 does NOT pair with the headphones.
    I have downloaded the latest drivers but the issue still persists.
    The issue i'm having is NOT specific to the type of bluetooth headphones i'm using because the issue happens with any type of bluetooth headphone i'm using.
    The headphones do work because i can pair the headphones to my iphone 5 and i can listen to music/videos on my iphone with the headphones.
    Previously i had a ThinkPad T430 and the headphones worked fine.
    Also, i do have a mouse that is bluetooth and the mouse works fine with the ThinPad T440.
    My bluetooth radio is turned on.
    In Device Manager, under Bluetooth Radios, it displays Generic Bluetooth Adapter and Microsoft Bluetooth Enumerator. Both of these have the latest drivers installed.
    Does anybody have a solution to this issue?

    Another forum enlightened me to the fact that T440s using Intel Bluetooth chips. This was the key to finding the secret sauce to get my Plantronics Voyager headset to work with a Lenovo T440.
    The magic occurs when you head over to Intel's site and install the latest "Intel® PROSet/Wireless Software for Bluetooth® technology" for your platform:
    https://downloadcenter.intel.com/SearchResult.aspx?lang=eng&keyword=bluetooth
    In my case, it was:
    https://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?DwnldID=24679&lang=eng
    I'd then reboot as a safety measure. After installing it, there are no additional Start Menu items, but once you Add a Device from the Bluetooth Devices screen, all the appropriate device drivers for telephony and headset are automatically found.

  • Does the Mac Operating System not work properly with Youtube?

    I noticed that my Messages on youtube are instantly deleted when I comment on some peoples Youtube channels. I don't think its the person that owns the youtube channels doing it because it is deleted almost instantly after I log out. It's very odd and I don't think its youtube censoring my comment because I'm not cursing in the comment and I don't believe cursing is against the TOS on Youtube anyways.
    Another thing I notice is that when I'm on a flash based chatroom that when someone I am talking to has left the chatroom it will still say they are in the chatroom until I click on my friendlist and than they turn red as if they are gone. It is very odd that I am noticing these strange bugs. However the chatroom thing could be a chatroom problem because it might do that on my Windows side which I never checked because I'm usually on that chatroom on my Mac side.

    The Adobe flash version could be checked to see if the system is actually using
    their latest version (see Adobe, not a third party prompt from elsewhere to get it)
    as that may be dated or you may have a newer -and- older Flash, and if so,
    the later one may not be in use. Within OS X you can choose the newer one.
    http://helpx.adobe.com/flash-player.html
    {see the links further down in the above linked page, should you have additional
    Mac OS X problems with Flash player or issues in general with installing it}
    Also, some of youtube can be run in HTML5 and depending on the author, should
    be visible even without a Flash player installed. youtube is a google product and
    they also have a help section for dealing with their content. And browser settings
    may affect how things work. Depending on what browser you use, this varies.
    Good luck & happy computing!

    Remembering now actually, I copied all the folders from the main firefox folder and pasted them into a new install of firefox (I had this problem actually before firefox updated). I was hoping that copying these folders would save my addons and etc. after I downloaded a new firefox and re-installed it. I put the folders back and firefox is still messed up :/
    I just want it to work more Q_Q

    That issue can be caused by an extension that isn't working properly.
    *https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes
    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

    When you use a virtual machine software, it can "take over" the optical drive for the virtual machine operating system, so the disk won't appear in OS X or on the desktop. You need to disable the virtual machine from accessing the optical drive. Usually if the virtual machine is not booted up, then control returns to OS X for the hardware.
    If the disk is not appearing in Windows, it's because you need to enable the virtual machine to access that piece of hardware.
    First use the Apple Menu to Software Update 10.6.3 to 10.6.8
    Next update Parallels to the latest version, if you get a grey screen and the Mac refuses to boot, hold the Shift key down (Safe Mode) while booting up again to disable Parallels and other at boot kernel externsion files, update Parallels and then reboot normally.
    While in Windows in the virtual machine, Windows Update to the latest version (Control Panel) and also make a "snapshot" this way you can revert to that for updates or if you get malware. Install the free Microsoft Security Essentials, it's good enough in most cases as you can "fall back" on the virtual machine snapshot if you get infected.

  • What does the message (unable to launch app at this time try again lat ....done. Retry

    What does the message mean( unable to launch app at this time   Done.    Retry ) .

    The only other thing I can think of since this problem has to do with downloading on 3G is that the signal strength isn't good enough. Try a reset on the device, hold the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo and release. Once the phone restarts see if you can get it done. If not, you might want to check with iTunes support and see if they see anything wrong with your account.
    Have you tried downloading on wifi? Does this work? Have you checked in iTunes for available downloads to try and get what you have cleared to start over?

  • My iPhone 4s won't update to is07 it keeps saying verifying then an error window comes up saying the software update is not available at this time?! Anyone else having this problem??

    My iPhone 4S has downloaded the new update for the Is07 update but when it comes to installing it I click the agree thing and then it says verifying update and an error pops up some time later saying update software is unavailable at this time try again later is anyone else having this issue???

    I imagine a ton of people are attempting to download it right now. Simple patience, maybe keep trying, and if possible, try a little later. Think of it as all those people lining up at Apple Stores + about a million more.

  • Does the auto-download feature only work over wifi?

    I want to turn this setting on in the podcast app but I don't want to risk that it will download a large video podcast over my 3G data connection. Can anyone confirm it only downloads over wifi?

    I can confirm also that despite having Cellular Data turned off the podcast app continues to download episodes over 3G.  I had a nasty surprise today when I looked at my cellular usage! 
    The podcast app is without doubt the worst Apple iPhone app I've used to date.  No means of controlling autodownloads, no ability to hide episodes you don't want & desparately slow.  I am an avid Podcast listener and was very excited when I saw that app was available but have been so disappointed I've deleted it and returned to iTunes / Music app combo to control my Podcast subscriptions.  I hope this is not a taste iOS 6!  Come on Apple you can do so much better...

  • My ipadmini is lagging in touch response. Sometimes the touch will just not work but other times it works fine. I am in Pakistan and have no authorised dealer here to whom i can take it. Also at times if i press a letter once it types it multiple times.

    Ipad touch problems

    Standard troubleshooting...
    1. Remove apps from the Recently Used (multi-tasking) list...
    - From any Home Screen, double tap the home button to bring up the Recents List
    - Swipe up on the app preview card to remove it from the list
    - Press the home button when done.
    2. Restart by pressing the sleep/lock button until you see the slider.  Slide to power off.  Restart by pressing the sleep/lock button until you see the Apple logo.
    3. Reset by pressing the home and sleep buttons until you see the Apple logo. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.
    4. Restore with your backup.
    5. Restore as new, i.e. without your backup. See how it runs with nothing synced to it.    You may need to try DFU mode (Google for it).
    6. If still a problem, it's likely a hardware issue.
