First generation iPhone connects to old G4 MBP, but not new unibody

I'm able to connect and pair to my old MBP G4. However, I can't get my unibody MBP to recognize, connect, or pair with my iPhone now. I've trashed my bluetooth plist, check to make sure Bluetooth sharing is on, checked it on the iPhone, and nothing! Please advise. Thanks!

You should be able to use the Remote App with both, provided you set it up. Make sure the new MBP and the iPhone are connected to the +same Wi-Fi network+. On the MBP, in iTunes, make sure iTunes menu > Preferences > Devices tab has the Look for iPhone and iPod Touch Remotes checked. Then launch the Remote app on the iPhone and tap Settings > Add Library. You should see the iPhone appear in the devices list on the left in iTunes, click on the little icon under it (the one that looks like the Remote app's icon), and enter the passcode shown on the iPhone.

JD3.* could connecting Oracle database 5.05 but not new version

Dear Sir,
JD3.* could connecting Oracle database 8.05 but not new version of Oracle_Database at all(8I and 9I in OTN version), but could run on Borland JBuilder.
Error message : IOException
Could you tell me, help me too.

Steve -- My guess would be that you need to upgrade your JDBC drivers for your client program. They are downloadable from OTN. I expect that JBuilder has its own JDBC drivers which are newer than what you have and that is why it does not have a problem.
Thanks -- Jeff

Postings are made to old activity type but not new in Process Order.

Hi friends,
We have created old activity type and assigned. However, the postings are made to old actity type. There is no plan price for new activity type.
So please suggest whether I missed any thing here.
Thanks,

Your information is very vague, and incomplete.
I assume you created a new acivity type, and not an old one? Where did you assign it? KP26, KP06, C203?
Did you recalculate your plan activity prices? KSPI. Download new qties? KSPP....

IDVD '06 Sees Old iMovie Projects But Not New Ones

I have found that iDVD '06 will let you do something really neat, that ended up in me discovering something really dumb.
First, if you want to add a folder with media in it to the Media section of iDVD, you can literally just drag/drop the folder there and POOF it shows up and your media shows up.
BUT... Ugh.
iDVD '06 does NOT see iMovie '06 project files. So, if you have a folder with iMovie '05 projects in it and iMovie '06 projects in it, and you drag that folder into the "Media" section of iLife '06, the '05 projects show and the '06 projects don't.
And this all came up because of another issues in iMovie '06 (posted about over here: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=421159&tstart=0 ) in which iMovie '06 doesn't actually delete video in cropped videos, discovered because I no longer can see video snips of a current iMovie project in iDVD (I used to see just enough to use in the menus, which was fine).
So, this sounds really weird to me. iDVD '06 can't see iMovie '06 project files? That can't be right, can it?

Never resolved but marking as answered to clean up my profile and login.

I have a new laptop.I can get my old imported emails but not new emails. where do i go to find them.

I used to have Outlook on my old laptop. I have a new laptop and have installed Mozilla Thunderbird for my emails. My IT friend put all my emails from my old laptop onto a memory stick and then imported them onto my new laptop with your Mozilla Thunderbird. I can now see all my old emails that were imported from the old laptop but i can`t seem to find where my new emails are located when i open up the Mozilla Thunderbird. Hope you can help. Thanks

Did you already set-up your account in Thunderbird?
I'd assume your Outlook email messages now appear underneath the 'Local Folders' account in Thunderbird. Is that correct?

What to do with an unused first generation iPhone

I've got a brand new first generation iPhone.
I have no desire to use it as a phone. I'd like to use it as nothing more than an mp3 player and wifi stuff in the coffee shops.
I've googled how to do it, but I came up with all kinds of complex stuff that I don't understand. One article says it involves doing unauthorized stuff to the phone (gave way too complex instructions for unlocking the thing) ... another more recent article says that Apple is not objecting to people using old iPhones simply as iPods.
But nowhere have I found a tutorial that will get me up to speed ... something written to a techno-simpleton like me, with no real understanding of iPhones or computer terminology.
Can anyone point me to a very simple tutorial on how to convert a first generation iPhone ... probably one of the first ever made ... into a non-phone media player and wifi surfer?
And is Apple in fact okay with this?
-JOHN

The iphone is designed to only be used once it has been activated with a carrier.
Once it has been activated, then it can be used without a wireless plan.

Forgot the password to my first generation iphone, how to unlock it now please help

I forgot my first generation iphone password, my iphone gives me this message "iphone is disabled and connect to iunes" when I connect to itunes get another message please enter your password. Please help if anyone had this problem before

If you restore the phone from backup on the LAST computer the phone synced with, this will remove the passcode. If you do not have access to the last computer the phone synced with, you will have to force the phone into recovery mode & restore it as a new device to remove the passcode:
Turn the phone off using the Sleep/Wake button, then the slide to power off. If you are unable to do that, press and hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time. When your phone turns off, release the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons. Then, leave the USB cable connected to your computer, but NOT your phone, iTunes running, press & hold the home button while connecting the USB cable to your dock connector, continue holding the home button until you see “Connect to iTunes” on the screen. You may now release the home button. iTunes should now display that it has detected your phone in recovery mode, if not quit and reopen iTunes. If you still don’t see the recovery message repeat these steps again. iTunes will give you the option to restore from a backup or set up as new. In your case, you will only be able to restore as a new device.

Problem with first generation iPhone after 3.1 upgrade - HELP!

Hey all!
I'm wondering if any of you know how to help me out with this issue...
I have a first generation iPhone 16GB and I recently upgraded to 3.1 software, but my sim card is not supported - so I need to downgrade. I've tried restoring, tried QuickPwn but no success with anything. It's stuck on the emergency call screen. By the way, my sim card isn't supported on 3.0 either, so I need to downgrade it to the original. I've been browsing the web all day trying to find a solution and nothing yet. If you can help, I'd appreciated it GREATLY!
Thanks so much!

Any body can help us. pleassssssssssss.

First Generation iPhone - can't seem to activate Bluetooth functionality

I upgraded my first generation iPhone with V2.0 software, unfortunately I can't turn on Bluetooth functionality at all - can't even get to the point of trying to pair with a Motorola headset.
I go to Settings>General>Bluetooth and move the switch from off to on. The little gray gear symbol just turns until the phone switches off automatically (about 2 minutes).
Is this a problem with the new software?
Thanks,
Gail

Gail... I had this same problem back in January 2008 with the first update of the year, I have a bluetooth adapter in my stereo system in my truck so I can have hands free calling that come out over the stereo system. I installed this adaptor in the beginning of Dec 2007 worked beautiful till the Jan. update. After the update everytime I got in the truck and turned the stereo on it would pair then freeze the iphone, sometimes it would completly shut it down, I was mad!!! After about a week of this I just disabled the bluetooth. After the March 2008 update all was back to normal, bluetooth worked beautifully again! I have not had any problems since then. I have not updated to 2.0 and after reading all the forums today I am gonna hold off for a while. You probably just need to wait till the next update, unfortunatly. Hope this helps!

My iPod (first generation) cannot connect to the app store nor iTunes. What can I do so that it connects again?

My iPod (first generation) cannot connect to the app store nor iTunes. What can I do so that it can connect and I can install apps or music once more? Also, when I go on the internet and try to search solutions, it freezes and I have to hold the power button for 20 seconds for it to go to lock screen. Any solutions?

Safari does work, right?

First Generation iphone static from receiver

My first generation iPhone has static coming from the receiver. When I am on the phone the other person does not hear it. The distortion made by receiver is very annoying. The static last for about 10 seconds. It started happening last week. I have the latest update. I did the restore twice. I am headed to the apple store tomorrow. I only got 25 days left on the warranty. I wanted to know if this was a common problem.

The phone was purchased off eBay, and it was unused brand new when it was purchased...and it was unlocked.
What part of the the iphone 2G was never sold anywhere in the world officially unlocked, other than France, do you not understand? Fact is, your phone was "hacked" to unlock it, which is common with iphones purchased on ebay. There are posts daily here just like yours. There is no way to officially unlock your phone, as AT&T does not offer unlocking and they would be the only ones who could unlock yours. As already stated: ANY ATTEMPT to update software or restore a "hacked" iphone will re-lock it to the carrier it was originally locked to. You have three choices: 1. Sell it and buy a phone you can use, 2. Take it back to the US & activate it on the AT&T network(very expensive to use where you live if you do that), or 3. Enjoy it as a paperweight.

How do I active my first generation iphone without sim, wifi, or itunes

How do I active my first generation iphone without sim, wifi, or itunes?

You don't. And an iPhone 3G is not the first generation iPhone.

Reactivating first generation iPhone?

So I currently have a 3GS (had it since it first came out) so I know, it's time to buy a new one. But because I just can't afford it I've just kept using it, which was never a problem. That is, until I made the terrible decision to download iOS 5 on it. Now I can't receive any incoming texts, which is a huge problem. I still have my first generation iPhone so I thought maybe I could reactivate it just until I can afford to get a new phone in a couple of weeks. But whenever I try to activate it (after putting my current SIM card into it) the activation process never fully works. I was wondering if it's just not really possible to reactive a first generation iPhone or if something's just going wrong? Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks!

I'm talking about your 3GS.
If you didn't lose "everything" by installing iOS 5 on your 3GS, you won't lose "everything" when restoring the 3GS with iTunes.
Where you do get you will lose everything on your iPhone when restoring it with iTunes?
All iTunes content on your iPhone - all music, movies, tv shows, podcasts, ringtones, audio and print books, and 3rd party apps should be in your iTunes library on your computer. All photos on your iPhone that were transferred from your computer should remain on your computer. Photos and videos in your iPhone's Camera Roll can and should be imported by your computer as with any other digital camera. Contacts, calendar events, and Safari bookmarks are designed to be synced with a supported app on your computer so all this data should be available on your computer as well. This leaves data such as iPHone settings, SMS/MMS, and 3rd party app settings and data created and stored by a 3rd party app which is included with your iPhone's backup.
If you switch to your original iPhone, you won't have all the data that is on your iPhone 3GS available on the original iPhone anyway.

First generation iphone vs iphone 3g

between these iphones, is there any difference in sim card compatibility.
i ask this question because someone told me that iphone 3g can't be used in Myanmar, though one of my friend is using first generation iphone now here in Myanmar.
sim card in Myanmar is 2G. ( can do SMS message but not internet access )
any expert who know this problem, pls help me.

The sim card that comes with the v1 & v2 iPhone is a 3G sim card. What your friend did was unlock the phone to use a local sim where he lives. This voids the warranty on the phone and can possibly cause permanent damage. IF you were able to do this with the 3G model, unless it was compatible with a local 3G network - if you have one, you would only have access through the Edge service or GPRS that you have access to locally.

First generation iPhone wallpaper

Is there any way I can transfer wallpaper photos from a first generation iPhone to an iPhone 3gs running OS 4
Thank you in advance
dave

You can't transfer the wallpaper photos included with the firmware/OS, but you can transfer photos from your computer to your 3GS that were transferred from your computer to your original or first generation iPhone.
