  • How do I connect multiple bluetooth devices to macbook pro

    Hi,
    I would like to connect bluetooth headset(Bose), my Magic mouse together to my macbook pro. 
    Also, If possible, I would like to use bluetooh headset and wired headset at the same time.
    Is it possible, if yes, could some one guide me.
    Regards
    Sandy

    Multiple Bluetooth devices may be connected to your computer at the same time.
    Set up differs from device to device. The Bluetooth set up assistant should find new devices when they are turned on and in range of your computer.

  • How do I connect two monitors to my macbook pro?

    How do I connect two monitors to my macbook pro?  This question applies to both DVI and VGA, as I might have to work with multiple sets of monitors.

    The MacBookPro only has enough horsepower in the video card for one external monitor.
    If you want two or more, you need a MacPro.
    Or a MacBook Pro and a Remote Desktop controlled MacMini.

  • My iPhone 3GS no longer connects through Bluetooth to my MacBook Air, nor my BMW X3.  Is this fixable?

    My iPhone 3GS no longer connects through Bluetooth to my MacBook Air nor my BMW X3.   I've made no recent adjustments, it's just stopped functioning.   Any ideas?   Can this be fixed, or is my iPhone on the way out?

    Problem solved!! I finally managed to pair the SE HCB-100 car kit speakerphone with the 3GS. I surfed the SE web site and it mentioned resetting the speakerphone. Tried it on 'one color ID' but it didn't work so I did it on all 'color IDs' and left it on reset mode when it 'accidentally' was picked up by my 3GS while searching!!! Found 'headset' and then recognised it as HCB-100. One happy guy for the holidays!!!

  • How to i connect my imac and my macbook so there doncuments are up to date

    how do i connect my imac and my macbook so they are in sync and up to date with the same documents?

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    There isn't a way to connect both Macs with a cable to keep your documents updated on them. However, if you need all your documents updated on both Macs, you can use a cloud service as iCloud or Dropbox to sync your documents. Preferably, I recommend Dropbox because it can sync all type of files between both computers > http://www.dropbox.com
    Another thing you can do is to buy an external disk and put your documents here

  • How do I connect via bluetooth my ipad with my Blackberry Torch

    How do I connect my ipad to my blackberry torch via bluetooth.

    am kinda regretting why I bought an iPad if it cannot interact with other devices, like the blackberry phone I have. I want to share pictures between the two devices but I cannot! Why is this so??????
    iOS does not support file transfer via Bluetooth. If you want to transfer photos, you'll need to sync through your computer or use a cloud-based service.
    Please help me otherwise this will be the last iPad I'll ever own.
    If you think some other device will suit you better, by all means sell your iPad and buy that other device.
    BTW, posting in a thread that's over two and half years old is not usually the best way to get help from us, who are all just your fellow users, just FYI.

  • How can I connect 5.1 speakers to Macbook Pro 13 bought Summer 2011

    Hi all
    I am very new to the mac world. Basically I need to know how I can connect my Macbook Pro 13" to a 5/1 set of speakers.
    Do I need something to plug to mini display port?
    Thanks

    I conclude that I cannot use any 5.1 Computer Speaker sets that go with my Macbook Pro 13 and get a real Dolby sound,right?
    "Computer speakers" Basically no. They mosty are either stereo analog (for music playback) or 5.1 gaming PC speakers that are married to a 5.1 sound card for PC towers.
    You would have to have a stereo reciever and 5.1 speakers that can accept:
    1: Toslink optical inputs
    2: Decode Dolby Surround Sound
    3: The media your playing back must have a Dolby sound option.
    Most 5.1 computer speaker setups are for gaming PC towers and takes a sound card that does the processing for each channel, has three analog wires
    Wire 1: Left and Right front channels
    Wire 2: Left and Right rear channels
    Wire 3: Subwoofer and center, common ground (returns all the used electrons to complete the loop)
    Your Mac has none of these, it's just a stereo analog, 2.0, a left and right channel, common ground (three sections on the plug)
    So no you can't use a PC based 5.1 system on a Mac, unless you bridge the first two wires either with adapters or splicing the cables. Then it's not true surround sound, just two stereo channels that fills the room with sound.
    With true surround sound, you can hear people creep up behind you, bullets whizz by your face, planes flying past overhead. It's a more immersive experinece.
    So unless the "computer 5.1 speakers" has it's own Toslink optical inputs and decodes Dolby (and other) surround sound formats, has a built in amplifier to power speakers, then no. As most 5.1 comptuer speakers are designed for PC 3D gaming, thus inexpensive.
    The Mac market for 3D gaming is rather small, tiny in fact. I haven't seen any "computer speaker" setup with the required stuff to playback true suround sound.
    Mac's are used for music and video production, that's why they have the better optical ports.
    Your just going to have to buy a home theater system to playback Dolby 5.1

  • How can I connect to Bluetooth of my iPhone when the screen is off ? (Bluetooth is ON)

    I need to "Page" my iPhone whenever its Bluetooth is ON. I couldn't figure it out how long is the listening time of the Apple's Bluetooth when its in Idle mode. Does anybody know how is the procedure of Apple devices to listen for available paging? I am not talking about "Inquiry" for the first time. Assume that I know the MAC address of embedded Bluetooth in iPhone.

    A backup of a device with a newer version of iOS cannot be retored to a device with an older version.  The solution is to connect to itunes and update the new device's iOS, then perform a restore.
