How to connect my iPhone to my iMac trough bluetooth?

If you have a wifi router you can set up/turn on the wifi... set the user name and password wifi in your router... open wifi in general settings on the iPhone... log into your router, user name and password. (If your don't know how to turn on the router wifi. Google the router make and model and you will find instructions on how to do this.)
If you don't have a wifi router and your Mac has wifi capabilities you can hookup to the internet over wifi from your Mac to your iPhone.
System Preferences on the Mac... Network... Wifi... Advanced tab... Hit the '+' to add a user name and password...
Make sure you use WPA2 Personal for Security... Hit ok... Turn on the wifi... Same as above with the iPhone, log into your wifi settings on the iPhone.
*Important point... Use WPA2 for the encryption/Security setting. If you use anything else for this setting, your wifi can be hacked.

  • HT4111 I'm trying to connect my iPad to my iMac trough Bluetooth, my iPad don't connect or don't find any thing, the iMac does find it

    Hi there
    As I mentioned above, I'm trying to transfer a document from my iMac to my iPad through bleutooth but I couldn't!!!
    The iMac find the iPad but the iPad keep loading for a long time without finding anything.
    So, what it's the problem?
    Thanks.

    You cannot transfer files via Bluetooth for the Mac to the iPad. That is not a supported bluetooth function on the iPad.
    IOS: Supported Bluetooth profiles.

    For what purpose are you trying to connect the two?
    The only thing you can connect a Mac to an iOS device for is Internet Tethering (Personal Hotspot) - nothing else.

  • How to connect my iPhone and iPad to Apple TV

    How to connect my iPhone and iPad to Apple TV

    Connect the iPad and Apple TV to the same WiFi network. Double Tab the home button on the iPad and then swipe your recently used apps from left to right until you see the mirroring icon which looks like a retangle with an up arrow. Tab that icon until you see the Apple TV. Tab Apple TV and slide the slider to the ON position. You should now see your iPad screen on the TV the Apple TV is connected to.

    How to connect my iphone 4s to a USB sound card for 5.1 speakers?

    You can't:
    1. iPhone sound output is stereo, not Dolby 5.1 compatible.
    2. iPhones do not connect sound output by standard USB.  The connecting device has to be iPhone compatible.

    When i connect my iphone to my imac, itunes opens but my itunes is not there.  My wife has recently added herself to the computer
    and her itunes appears but i cannot find my itunes?

    Not really! Anyhow, what do you want to achieve. The only things you can access in your iPad outside of using iTunes are photos and videos. [Locate the iPad as any other external device through Windows Eplorer or Finder and dig through the folders.]
    You are fortunate that iTunes opens when you connect the iPad since many other users have difficulty in achieving this. It is from there that you can manage what you want synced to the iPad.

    How do I send files from my IMAC via bluetooth to my new Ipad?  They will not "pair" but they are connected and discoverable.  I send a file from Imac snow leopard OS X 10.6 to the ipadusing bluetooth,  but the failure message says the ipad does not have the necessary services.  What are these?  Do I neeed to have iphoto and ms word to send pix and .doc files?

    File Sharing over Bluetooth is not a feature of iOS devices. iOS does not include the required Bluetooth profiles to allow this. You cannot add this feature, so you may as well stop trying.

  • When I connect my iphone to my iMac, iTunes does not open automatically

    When I connect my iphone to my iMac, iTunes does not open automatically, even though I have the "open iTunes when this phone is connected" option checked. I'm on the latest Snow Leopard with iTunes 10.4 and use an iPhone 4 with iOS 4.3.4.  I think the problem began with the latest iTunes update.

    Found the answer in another discussion! Here's what worked:
    "I also had the same problem, iTunes 10.4 wouldn't launch when connecting iPhone 3GS.
    I unchecked "Launch iTunes when this iPhone is connected", restarted, launched iTunes and connected iPhone, rechecked "Launch iTunes when this iPhone is connected".  I was asked if I wanted to install iTunes helper and said yes.  All works again."

  • What will happen after disabling iCloud and connecting my iPhone to my iMac?

    Now that I disabled iCloud on my iPhone, indeed the data is still available on my iPhone.
    But now I tried to disable iCloud on my iMac, the data is lost.
    Is it safe to connect my iPhone to my iMac and will my data (from my iPhone) be restored on my iMac? Or will I los all data?
    Thanks in advance for your advice!

    The other 2 applications open like normal. All three give me info.
    Pages     ver.4.1          265.8MB
    Numbers ver. 2.1          89.5MB
    Keynote ver. 5.1.1        238.1MB
    They all list Apr 3 as the last time opened. That was when I upgraded to Mavericks. I certainly used pages and numbers since then as I have alot of my work files on this computer?
    Just very odd. I did find my original iWorks disc from when I bought the computer. I'm assuming i can reinstall it. Will try that. Thank you for all your help. Would still like to know what did happen?
