How can I use my bluetooth (cell phone earpiece) as a Mic?

I have read in theory it should work? I have a plantronics bluetooth earpiece for my cell phone. How can I set it up as a Mic on the MacMini? in preferences? I want to be able to use it in iMovie.
I was doing a search under Microphones, someone posted : besides isite and imic, one should be able to use a bluetooth set as a Mic.

thanks. Shawk. I figured it out last night when I got home. Works great. Actually like it better than microphone (no wires) and sound is good.

    Depending on which soundcard you have there, but if your card is capable for
    ASIO -> activate I/O drivers on Sonar/Options/Audio/Drivers -tab (mic/line sources should be listed there --> activate) and select the mic or/and Line sources on tracks "I" - dialog
    WDM/KS -> use the Surround Mixer or windows recording controls for recording source selection (mic should be listed there)
    MME32 - > same w/ WDM/KS
    If you use Asio4All --> same w/ WDM/KS & MME32
    No mic and line source simultaenously w/ WDM/KS and MME32.
    You perhaps be able to do this w/ kX drivers.

    ADDED:
    You can also install modded version of Audigy 2 drivers/software but I have never done this w/ Li've! 5. so I can't be sure if you get ASIO support for your card.
    Here are the instruction --> http://www.tech-pc.co.uk/audigy-2.php

  • If iPhone needs repair, can I use my old cell phone as back up?

    If I need to send my iPhone in for battery replacement or repair, will I be able to use my previous cell phone until I get my iPhone back?
    The newly posted iPhone Service FAQ states that Apple will be "renting" AppleCare Service iPhones for $29. I realize that none of the info stored on the SIM will transfer to my old phone, but I can always sync contacts to that phone from my computer, and I'd rather do that than shell out $29 for a loaner.
    By the way, don't most cell companies provide loaner phones for free? Why is Apple charging $29... other than because they can.

    Definitely...your iPhone sim card will work fine in any of our current phone models (as long as they are gsm/cingular/at&t...yada yada yada). Voice service will be instantly transfered to the phone and your data service will continue to work with the temporary phone's browser...Just remember, the opposite isn't true. You can't take the sim out of another phone and expect it to work in the iPhone without repeating iActivation. Hope this helps!

  • How can we use icloud to share phone calendars?

    I have an icloud account.  I would like to link my phone, my husband's phone and our ipad all to it.  I would like to share music and games and calendar so that when I add something to my calendar it will appear in my husband's phone calendar as well.  I do not however want to share contacts text messages email etc.  How can I do this?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    You can share an Apple ID for iTunes, but each have a separate ID for iCloud (to keep your personal data separate). If you each then sign into the others ID as a secondary account at settings > mail, contacts, calendars and turn on calendars or anything else you wish to share with each other.

  • How can I use ipad for a phone.

    I want to use my ipad2 as a phone (i am outside USA)
    and use a blue tooth ear piece for phone call to limit my devices as I travel a lot.
    I also would like to know how to use VOIM like vonge call fowarding etc...

    You tried it with Skype or other similar service?
    You can get a Skype phone number and treat your web enabled device (laptop or iPad) as a phone.
    Not sure about the Bluetooth thing though, worth a try.
    There are some logistical issues however, for one you need complete internet access. if you lose 3G service your system probably wont work on a degraded network like Edge or GPRS.
    Also, incoming calls will not behave the same way as an incoming call on your phone, for example, you'll need to enter your password before you can access Skype and then launch the app. Chances are you'll have missed the call by then.
    Hope this helps, let me know if you try any of it.

  • How can I use a bluetooth remote to pause a video on Keynote?

    I used to use a bluetooh remote to pause videos on Keynote during my presentations.  However, since the Keynote update to 6.2 I am no longer able to do it and it was a very helpful tool for me.  I use the Satechi bluetooth remote GBR-100 for that.  I use the MacBook Air which does not have the infra red remote capability.  Is there any possible set up that I can try?
    Thank you!

    The document states that my new iPad (iPad 3) SHOULD mirror on the VGA device... but it doesn't.
    The Apple Store sold me a standard VGA adapter, not the digiital one.  The back of the packages states the adaptor supports iPad and iPad 2, but no iPad 3 or "New iPad" is listed.  Did they sell me the wrong adapter?
    No. It was packaged before the new iPad was released so it won't list it but is is compatible.
    Is it possible that my VGA projector won't accept the 1080 input?
    Possibly. Either this or it is not set up corectly.

  • How can i Use my apple 4 phone again - I was instructed to restore my phone with itunes and now it's stuck with the itunes logo and black screen Itunes has said unable to restore and now left unable to use my phone and not sure if I have any data on it?

    I was instructed by I Tunes to restore my Iphone 4 - ITunes has since said it is unable to restore.  I  am now left with a black screen with Itunes logo on it and a picture of the charger attachment at the base of the screen and I am unable to do anything now with the device.  I think I may have lost all of my information on the device too ~ can anyone help please?

    You have lost all your data, but hopefully you were backing it up with iCloud or iTunes. You can try this:
    Turn your phone off and connect your cable to the computer, but not the device just yet. Start up iTunes. Now, hold down the home button on your phone and plug it in to the cable - don't let go of the button until iTunes tells you it's detected a phone in recovery mode. Now you can restore to factory settings.

  • How can i use whats app in iphone 3g

    how can i use whatspp on i phone 3g?

    Whatsapp requires iOS 4.3 or later which will not run on an iPhone 3G. If you want to run Whatsapp or any of the increasingly-more-common apps that also require iOS 4.3 at minimum, you'll need a newer iPhone.

  • How can i use my iPhone 4 and connect via bluetooth with my macpro

    how can i use my iPhone 4 and connect via bluetooth with my macpro

    The only way that you can connect your iPhone to the mac is to use it for a "Wi-fi hotspot" meaning that you can use the celluar connectivity of your phone to connect your computer to the interent.
    Do you mean a MacBook Pro of the desktop MacPro?

  • How do i use a Bluetooth phone to connect my Mac to the internet?

    Please help me connect to the internet using my Bluetooth enabled phone's GPRS feature. I know an easier way would be to use Launch2net...but at 75Euros...too expensive. It used to be easy prior to Leopard but since I've upgraded to Leopard...the feature seems to have vanished.

    who is your provider, here in the UK t-mobile give you launch2net for free.
    however you dont need that software.
    You just need a modem script for your model of phone.
    you can get modem scripts for most phone from ross barkmans' homepage

  • Can't connect Samsung WIFI cell phone to Tmobile using Airport time capsule

    I am using Tmobile for cell phone service and Comcast for high speed internet. I am unable to mske a WIFI cell phone connection. I get Tmobile ISP errors. Talked with Tech support from Apple, Tmobile and Comcast.
    Took the phone and the time capsule to the local Bridgeport apple store. They managed to get the connection up and running with my router. My phone also worked with their store network. We had to open UDP ports 500 and 4500 both ways and also IP protocols 50 and 51 both ways on the time capsule to make it work.
    With the same settings, it does not work at home using Comcast.
    Help is appreciated.

    I still can't use it the way I was hoping because it then becomes a T/M back-up disk and not a normal usb/firewire disc.
    You are first mounting the drive on the desktop, correct?
    Not sure what you mean here.
    You can drag/drop files normally or copy/paste files to the drive icon on the desktop, just as you would a normal drive that is displayed on the desktop.
    Or, double click the drive icon on the desktop and drag/drop files into the open window there.
    Tell us the steps that you are using to mount the drive on the desktop. What happens after each step?

  • I was trying to get the iOS 8.2 on my iPhone 5 but then it stopped and my phone is now on recovery mode I have pictures I need and they did not all fit on iCloud  how can I use the phone again with ALL my pictures and videos without restoring it?

    I was trying to get the iOS 8.2 on my iPhone 5 but then it stopped and my phone is now on recovery mode I have pictures I need and they did not all fit on iCloud  how can I use the phone again with ALL my pictures and videos without restoring it?

    Contacts are designed to be synced to a supported application on the computer or a cloud service.
    Pictures taken with the device are designed to regularly be copied off the device to a computer as would be done with any digital camera.
    If you have failed to use the device as designed it may be too late to recovery anything.
    Is the device regularly backed up to a computer via iTunes?  If so, the most recent backup (when restored to a replacement iOS device) should contain all contacts and pictures as of when the backup was created.
