HT1153 can't connect my iPhone to my mac

how do i get my mac to connect to my iphone 4 through bluetooth?

I use Hotmail plus on my Iphone. Works perfectly. Don't believe anyone who claims they don't work well together, try it yourself, you will love it. I have had a hotmail account since before Microsoft owned it, and have never had a problem. The plus feature also gives you 10GB of protected storage. Here is a link to the signup page, and I cut-n-pasted all the settings below. Good Luck!
1. Go to Settings
2. Go to Mail
3. Go to Add a new Account
4. Click Other
5. Click the POP button - do not leave it on the default IMAP button (this is where I made my mistake)
Then fill in these values:
NAME: Enter your name here, or some other value.
ADDRESS: Enter your full hotmail email address
DESCRIPTION: Create a description such as "hotmail account"
INCOMING MAIL SERVER
Host name: pop3.live.com
User name: (enter your full hotmail email address)
Password: (enter your password for this account)
OUTGOING MAIL SERVER
Host Name: smtp.live.com
User Name: (enter your full hotmail email address)
Password: (enter the password for this account)
Under the ADVANCED SETTINGS
Make sure incoming and outgoing SSL is 'ON' - Authentication is set to Password

  • How can I connect my iPhone to my Mac without deleting all the apps on it?

    Last night I bought a bunch of apps using iTunes on my Mac. Then I connected my iPhone and put the apps from the computer onto the iPhone. So far so good.
    Today I opened up iTunes on another Mac and before connecting the phone first selected Store > Check for available downloads. A dialog came up saying "all purchases have been downloaded for this account."
    Under preferences I checked "Prevent iPods, iPhones, and iPads from syncing automatically.
    I then connected my iPhone to this second Mac and did the update to iOS 4.1.
    (By the way the reason I used the second Mac to do this update was that it failed repeatedly on the first Mac with an error saying something like can't create a session. I went through Apple's related troubleshooting document extremely carefully and methodically, but that didn't help. I then followed the recommendation in that document to try with a second Mac.)
    Now all my new apps as well as several others are gone from the iPhone.
    Also in iTunes itself on the second computer all my new apps are missing. I looked under the "Library" section in iTunes and a bunch of apps that I've been trying over and over for months to simply delete are present and none of the ones I bought last night are present.
    Questions:
    1. How can I get my apps back? It cost me a lot of time and money to discover those apps and get them onto the phone. Are they just gone now?
    2. How can I connect my phone to my computer without completely ******* up my phone? Does Apple provide a way to do that?
    3. Is there ANY way that I can effectively control what is and is not on my phone (apps, videos, etc.) or is that just supposed to be sort of random?
    By the way it appears that Apple doesn't allow "potty words" on its forum because we all are, after all, six year olds. So just to be clear, what I MEANT and what I WROTE was "eff u cee kay i en gee up my phone."

    Now all my new apps as well as several others are gone from the iPhone.
    Look on other screens. The 4.1 update ands Game Center to the home screen. If that screen was full it create a blank screen and moves one app from the home screen to the new screen to make room for Game Center. All the other screens are pushed back one place.

    If they are really gone, you can download them again. You will not be charged again if you use the same iTunes account.

  • How can i connect my iphone to a new itunes library without losing my contacts and photos ?

    how can i connect my iphone to a new itunes library without losing my contacts and photos ?

    Is the new iTunes library on a different computer, or the same computer?
    Are you concerned about photos that you have taken with the iPhone in the Camera Roll, or photos you have synced to the iPhone from your computer?
    Contacts should be configured to sync with an app on your computer. You set this up in iTunes on the Info tab with the iPhone connected. You will not lose any contacts if the app on your computer has at least one contact.

  • I purchased a new router and now can't connect my Iphone 4S to it.  All my other devices work fine.  How do I get the phone to connect.  It finds the router but wants IP address: CHCP/BootP/STATIC.  I am confused!!

    I purchased a new router and can not connect my IPHONE 4S to it.  All my other devices connect fine including my IPAD.  HELP!  I am not a techie!! I am a newbie

    My guess is that when you see the router on your phone, you press the blue arrow on the right - thats why you see all the IP stuff.   Don't press the blue arrow.  Press further to the left. You should be prompted for a password then.

    Again without stating the trouble shooting steps you have taken, its hard to direct you with any information.
    Try a different port on the computer.
    Does the iphone beep when u plug it up. ?
    Plug iphone into computer and give it 3 to 4 minutes to see if it connects and is running slow.,
    Delete the apple mobile device from your computer.
    Upgrade itunes to newest version.
    Is you USB cord defective ?
    Any USB 3.0 on your system ? .
    Delete or Disable  any antivirus program on your computer ?
    I will tell u the problem is your computer not the phone.
    We could do this for hours.

    By Design you can only Sync the phone to One iTunes Library at a time...
    Syncing & importing pics/videos in the camera roll are two entirely different things & have nothing to do with each other.
    You can import iPhone camera roll photos/videos using any computer you want...this has nothing to do with iTunes or syncing.
