How to set up Bluetooth with iPhone and computer

Hi there.
I am now the proud owner of a brand new iPhone 3GS 32GB and I'm in love...
I'm trying to set it up with Bluetooth. I used to be able to "Bluetooth" files to and from my computer with other mobile devices but I have difficulties with the iPhone. It won't connect. Anybody knows what I need to do? Cheers.

The iPhone _does not_ support Bluetooth file transfer. You must use the USB cable for syncing, or there are file transfer/storage apps in the App Store (Files, File Magnet, Air Sharing, there are lots) that use Wi-Fi.
On the iPhone, Bluetooth is limited to voice calls, music streaming to stereo headphones, and tethering (using the phone as a cellular modem). Tethering requires carrier support - O2 and Orange support it, Tesco does not.

  • Set up iCloud with iPhone and iMac, and all my calendar items disappeared from my iPhone.  Help?

    I had a full calendar on my iPhone4 before I activated iCloud on my iMac and iPhone.  All that's left on the iPhone calendar are a few birthdays.  Can someone please tell me how to sync my iMac with my iPhone via iCloud (boy, that's a lot of "i's")??

    If you are going to use iCloud then stop using iTunes. Set up 2 user accounts on your PC, one for you and one for her, in each account enter the correct iCloud credentials (ie: yours for you and hers for her), do not sync the items that are on iCloud with iTunes, it will make a mess.

  • How to set up Windows with Reader and certificate for all users

    Good afternoon (GMT),
    we're dealing with a Win XP (SP3) system that is set up by an Administrator. One task is to set up the system in a way that all users (w/o admin rights) become able to read a certified-protected PDF. Currently we know a way to install the "public key" for this certificate only for one known user. But how to proceed when not all users are known? The users shall later on never be asked to confirm the certification installation/registration.
    If it helps, here is the software version:
    Acrobat 8.12 to encrypt the PDF via certification. In near future I will switch to Acrobat 9.x
    Reader 7.x and/or 8.x on customer PCs.
    Thank you for ideas and hints.
    BTW: Next time we want to provide a solution for Win7 systems, too.

  • How to Set Input Levels with FirePod and GarageBand

    Hello ....
    I/ve got Garageband and my Firepod 8 channel interface working ... but I need some tips .. especially on the relationship of input levels between my Firepod and Garageband ....
    When I am setting input levels for a recording ... where should the input level be on the track in Garageband? .... Is that volume setting only for playback and mixing? .... or is it for the input as well ...
    Thank you ....

    Where should the initial input levels be set? ... Would you use the loudest
    part of the song to do this? ...
    Yes, as loud as possible without lighting the FP's clip leds.
    When I mix the final product ... and change the volumes on the different
    tracks.. aren't you then changing the input levels?
    No, you're changing the output levels.
    can't you red line and overload the track?
    Yes, that's why each track has a fader, so that you don't clip.
    Is there a master ouput level indicator
    Yes, right over the Master Volume slider.
    I guess you can't just put each track as loud as you want ... correct?
    As loud as you want without clipping.
    I would strongly suggest doing some web searches on "Mixing and Mastering" to learn more about how to mix, there's a TON of info floating around the web.

  • How to set up facetime with iPad and MacPro that have the same Apple ID?

    I have a iPad and a MacPro both with the same Apple ID but they are different locations. I am using the iPad in NY and my husband is using the MacPro in a different location. I cannot call him on the MacPro with facetime. When I call the message says "....not available"

    Hello Susan Dietz,
    Much like calling from one phone to another, you would need a separate Apple ID to contact with FaceTime (just as calling your own phone number would direct you to your own voicemail, rather than ring your phone).

  • HT1947 There are 5 of us in this house with IPhones and we all want to control the apple tv with our phones.    We all have separate iTunes accounts.   How do we do this?

    There are 5 of us in this house with IPhones and we all want to control the apple tv with our phones.    We all have separate iTunes accounts.   How do we do this?

    I have 3 iPhones in my house and 1 apple tv.
    I do NOT set a password on my apple tv, so any iPhone can send video to the tv.
    Any iPhone can use the apple remote option also.
    Just play a video and click that square with an arrow and play on apple tv. The video comes up from any iPhone in my house.
    Same goes for pics, etc

  • How do I avoid having to pair my bluetooth with iPhone 4 every time I use it?

    How do I avoid having to pair my bluetooth with iPhone 4 every time I use it?

    I think I didn't make myself clear. My bluetooth device is paired. If I turn the device OFF while keeping it ON in the iPhone 4, and later on come back and put the device ON, the iPhone doesn't find it. The solution is to turn it OFF in both the bluetooth device and the iPhone and start again, which was not the case with my previous iPhone 3 and is a real pain to have to do this each time... Any one familiar with this? Thanks in advance.

    Install ClamXav and run a scan with that. It should pick up any trojans.

  • HT3546 So i recently bought an Apple AirPort Extreme BaseStation (the mushroom shaped one) and was wondering if someone could tell me where and how to find a power cord and how to set it up with my Macintosh (2011 edition with 1.7.5) Thankyou! :)

    So i recently bought an Apple AirPort Extreme BaseStation (the mushroom shaped one) and was wondering if someone could tell me where and how to find a power cord and how to set it up with my Macintosh (2011 edition with 1.7.5) Thankyou!

    Welcome!
    Last question first, as we need to know what operating system that the Mac is using.
    If you are not sure, click the Apple icon in the upper left corner of the screen, then click About This Mac, and post back with the OS X Version number that you see there.
    Two possible solutions on the power cord
    ORIGINAL OEM APPLE AIRPORT EXTREME BASE STATION POWER SUPPLY AC ADAPTER A1202 if you want a white power supply and white power cord to match up with the Apple device
    AC adapter for Apple AirPort A1034 Extreme B... if you don't care what color the supply and cord might be
    If you don't already have a Setup Guide.....look here:

    when you change PC how to make connection with iphone and new PC

    Yes, you can do it the same as any other database. The code would be similar.
    I'd also suggest you not to use the JDBC ODBC bridge for connection. There are other drivers available for that.

  • How to sync Address book with iphone(iOS 6) and 10.7.4?

    How to sync Address book with iphone(iOS 6) and 10.7.4

    i'm having this issue too.  it's a bit more complex though i think so i'll give the details:
    a few days ago i added some people to my contacts using my phone. the thing they have in common is they're all new contacts.
    they synced over to my macbook address book ok.
    then a few days later i had to do a full restore of my iphone for various reasons (the new one, already!) which i did. when i then looked in my iphone contacts, these contacts were no longer there. they WERE however, still in my macbook address book.
    so i figured i'd switch icloud syncing off for contacts and then resync to get them back on my phone. it didn't work. so i then turned off icloud sync and tried a good old manual sync via itunes, making sure to check the box for syncing contacts.  it still didn't work.
    now i'm at that odd place where the contacts are in my macbook address book but not in my phone and i can't seem to get them onto my phone (which is frustrating as ultimately they are phone numbers and in my phone is the best place for them!)
    any ideas?

  • How can I completely get my iPhone and iPad disconnected from iTunes Match? I don't usually have Cloud access and find iTunes Match to be very annoying.

    How can I completely get my iPhone and iPad disconnected from iTunes Match? I don't usually have Cloud access and find iTunes Match to be very annoying.

    Csoud1 is correct. But if you still want to keep your iTunes Match subscribed and did not want to sync with your iOS devices, do the following:
    On you iOS devices, just go to Setting > Music > disable iTunes Match
