HELP! Try to set up bluetooth using a D-link 120 on a Dual 1.8 G5

I have just got a Apple bluetooth keyboard and am trying to pair it to my dual 1.8 G5 using a D-Link 120 USB adapter. I have search the forms for hours trying to see if I can find the answer with no luck...
Here is what seems to be taking place.
Plug in D-link 120 USB Adapter, power on keyboard, open bluetooth setting set-up assistant, select keyboard as my device, it shows that it sees the Apple keyboard and I click continue, gives me a passkey number to type in and hit return and say it should pair but after 45-sec. I get "Pairing attempt unsuccessful"... what could I be doing wrong?
I am new to bluetooth and my goal is after pairing it to the D-Link 120 adapter I will move the D-link to my IOGEAR KVMP switch and plug it into the USB port where the keyboard plugs into so I can use it with both my Macs (this G5 and a new Mini i have connected to the KVMP... if possible?)
I understand that I might not get it to work with my KVMP (I have read that others have used this adapter with a KVMP) but right now I cannot even get it to work with my G5 like it says it can?
Any assistance that I can get with this would be helpful! please keep in mind that i am new to bluetooth so please try and keep an possible solutions low-tech.

i steered away from the USB adapters for bluetooth... i tried one from best buy that was 1/2 the $ of the d-link 120... had crazy problems happen?!?! i actually had USB components drop out on me! i use eyeTV and every time i tried to use the bluetooth it disappeared?!!? i assumed it was pulling too much power through the USB ports and subsequently the other devices got dropped due to lack of power...
i was told the d-link was the best one for our macs, but i never tried it again... i want to get an airport card with the bluetooth adapter on it... you can find them on line and peeps in these forums have posted links for them (can't remember where at the moment).
japamac uses it and has no problems... maybe he can chime in and help!
SITE FOR COMBO CARD
try that and look for your mac...

Help needed to set up Bluetooth support in Netbeans

Hi all,
I have to develop an application for GSM/PDA, that uses Bluetooth. So I installed NetBeans 5.0, and the wireless toolkit. But when I try to launch the bluetooth example MIDlet, I get this error:
Can't initialize bluetooth: javax.bluetooth.BluetoothStateException: JSR082 support is not available.That's really strange, because it's written in the kit's description that JSR 82 support is available, as you can see on this image: http://img99.imageshack.us/img99/5771/captureupdatecenterwizardgb1.png
What can I do to make it work? I tried everything the last 3 days, I searched Google thousands times but it doesn't work...
Help would be very appreciated!
Many thanks!
PS: I run Ubuntu Linux Edgy Eft.

Well, I solved my problem :-)
I added this line:
127.0.0.1 xxxxin the file /etc/hosts, where xxxx is the name of my computer.

Millietrixie-
Are you trying to call yourself to test FaceTime? If so, you must have a second E-Mail address registered with your Apple ID. In other words, there must be a different E-Mail address on each unit.

Sorry but that makes no sense in English. Only your mobile phone company (i.e. "carrier") can enable the Personal Hotspot feature.

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).

iPods (except for iPod touch) are not linked to any iTunes "account." They are associated with your iTunes library. The account in iTunes is your Apple ID, and that is used to buy and download content from the iTunes Store. It is not required to use an iPod.
The 1st (and 2nd) gen shuffle can only be used with one iTunes library at a time. When you connect it, iTunes should prompt you to start using it with your iTunes library, and warn that the shuffle's existing content will be erased. Have iTunes erase the shuffle, and it will be associated with your iTunes library going forward. You can then add content to your shuffle.
The need for the previous owner's Apple ID and password should only come up if you are trying to transfer existing content from the shuffle to your iTunes library, AND the previous owner had content purchased from the iTunes Store. Just cancel out of that step, if iTunes asks.

I have multiple Apple IDs. Is there a way for me to merge them into a single Apple ID?
Apple IDs cannot be merged. You should use your preferred Apple ID from now on, but you can still access your purchased items such as music, movies, or software using your other Apple IDs.

Hi

Please help

Reset all settings and try again. If that doesn't help contact Apple.

When trying to verify the email address, I get the following message. Please help. This email address is already in use or you may already have an Apple ID associated with this email address. Please try again or sign in using your existing Apple ID.

I bought a used iPod touch and when I try to set up my iCloud account, it says that the maximum number of free accounts have been activated on this device. Is there a way around this?

I bought a used iPod touch and when I try to set up my iCloud account, it says that the maximum number of free accounts have been activated on this device. Is there a way around this? I thought I could maybe set up the account on my PC and go from there, but it won't let me do that. It is forcing me to set up on the iPod. Am I doomed to have no iCloud account because I opted for a used device?

See this previous discussion.

Can you use 2 sets of bluetooth headphones at the same time with the Ipad 4?

Hi, I was wondering if anyone could tell me if I can use 2 sets of bluetooth headphones at the same time with the Ipad?
It is so my children can watch a film or listen to music together.
Thanks

No

Can I pair and use more than one set of bluetooth speakers at the same time on my ipod touch 4.0

can I pair and use more than one set of bluetooth speakers at the same time on my ipod touch 4.0 or Iphone 4s or Ipad 2?

You can only connect to one device at a time using Bluetooth, See article below for more information.
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1664
While your iOS device can maintain multiple pairing records, it can only connect to one headset or hands-free device at a time. This prevents your iOS device from sending your data to the wrong Bluetooth accessory.
