Welcome to the world of Macs. See this introduction to Macs. It might be that you need to sync your iPhone with you MBP. To do this you would connect your iPhone to your MBP which should start up iTunes so you can sync music, vids, and possibly contacts.

  • HT1386 simple and easy way to sync my contacts from iPhone 3gs to Macbook Pro that both my partner and I use. Have tried with photos and and only 350 of 3,500 items have synced. Remember simple and easy, I'm still learning-slowly.

    Simple and EASY way to sync contacts from 3gs iPhone to MacBook Pro. Partner and I both use macBook. I have tried and get a message that only 350 of 3,500 item have syncd- all photos. I'm still learning and am very afraid of doing something that will wipe out all info,contacts and photos. Entering this site, the account shows my partners name, but accepts my other information.

    First of all, you should always save you photos on computer like any other digital camera.
    Backup on iCloud or iTunes only backup your Camera Roll. The other photos should be already on the computer.
    Note: Photos are not saved in iTunes, it's only a conduit between your iPhone and your photo managing software on computer.
    What computer do you have?

  • Bluetooth from iPhone 3GS to MacBook Pro not working?

    I am having (seemingly) bluetooth connection issues with "some" devices to my MacBook Pro.  I note:
    * Mouse pairs fine
    * iPhone 3GS does not remain connected (focus of this forum question)
    Error - after pairing my iPhone 3GS to my MBP I get an error:
    The Bluetooth Network is Unavailable
    There was an error connecting your device.  Make sure the device is turned on and in range.
    Notes:
    * MacBook Pro details:
      Model Name:          MacBook Pro
      Model Identifier:          MacBookPro6,2
      Processor Name:          Intel Core i7
      System Version:          Mac OS X 10.7.3 (11D50b)
    Background: Ultimately interested in teethering my iPhone 3G data connection to my MacBook Pro, but for the moment the bluetooth connection won't even remain in place.

    nothing in these articles helped unfortunately - some more clarification:
    tethering via USB from iPhone 3G to MacBook Pro => WORKS
    tethering via Bluetooth => does NOT work, with bluetooth connectioning not staying up
    During pairing process:
    devices "see each other"
    pairing appears to work, then you see that the connection drops out directly afterwards (almost immediately)
    on iPhone message = "Connection Unsuccessful - XXX's MacBook Pro is not supported"
    on MacBook - it's just the connection in Bluetooth options shows up as not connected
    in /var/log/system I see some bluetooth related lines:
    Apr 18 19:33:14 Gregs-MacBook-Pro bnepd[18950]: [IOBluetoothDevice instantiateChannel] BluetoothHCIAuthenticationRequested failed (0x0006), so retry
    Apr 18 19:33:14 Gregs-MacBook-Pro sandboxd[18966] ([18950]): bnepd(18950) deny mach-lookup com.apple.blued
    Apr 18 19:33:14 Gregs-MacBook-Pro bnepd[18950]: [IOBluetoothDevice instantiateChannel] BluetoothHCIAuthenticationRequested failed (0x0006), so disconnect device
    Apr 18 19:33:53 Gregs-MacBook-Pro blued[22]: Removing Bluetooth configured device: 00-26-08-23-23-9d
    Any other ideas?  Is it a physical problem with my MBP?  but then again my bluetooth mouse stays connected ok.  And in terms of the iPhone well it tethers fine to the iPad via bluetooth....

  • How to import contacts from iphone 3GS to outlook?

    Hi i got the new iphone 4GS but i just found out that my new computer has no contacts at all, so i am trying to move my contacts from my old 3GS to my outlook express. Could I do that? And How?

    There is no 4GS, it's a 4S... minor nit-picking on my part.
    The iPhone does not sync with Outlook Express.
    This article is a good place to start on syncing content with your iPhone.

  • How can I sync my notes from iPhone 3GS to MacBook Pro?

    How can I sync my Notes from the iPhone 3GS running IOS 6.0.1 to my MacBook Pro running OSX 10.8.2?

    The most straightforward way (assuming your iPhone 3GS is running iOS 6, which it should be) is to use iCloud to house your contacts.
    Then it would be trivial to have your contacts synced and maintained between your MacBook Pro and your iPhone.
    P.S.:  Sorry, I said contacts but meant notes.  iCloud would work for both.

  • Stream Audio From iPhone 3GS To MacBook Pro

    Is it possible to stream audio from an iPhone 3GS (playing in the iPod app) to a MacBook Pro over Bluetooth, so that the music plays through the MacBook's internal speakers?
    Obviously you could just connect the headphone socket of the iPhone 3GS to the line in socket of the MacBook Pro, but doing it over Bluetooth would be much tidier.

    There is a way with WiFi, but you need to "Modify" your iPhone to do it.

  • Can't move contacts from iPhone to new MacBook Pro

    Hi,
    my father-in-law has an iPhone 3G which he's used with his PC without a problem. I finally convinced him to buy a MacBook Pro (which he did today) and we've been unable to move the contacts from the iPhone to the laptop. The phone is connected to iTunes and all looks normal but when we select "contacts" to be synced to the laptop and then click apply, nothing happens. Tried to sync it, the phone and iTunes say "syncing" but the contacts are not showing up in the laptop's address book - very embarassing. I'm assuming it's something I'm doing wrong but I can't for the life of me find an answer.
    Any help would be hugely appreciated.
    Many thanks,
    Ole

    Before you connect your phone to the mac, you should make sure that auto sync when a phone or ipod is connected is NOT CHECKED in preferences for itunes.
    Once you've authorized the account, you should then transfer your purchased apps & music to itunes from your phone.
    You do that by going up to file, select transfer purchases made on this ipod to this computer. All of your purchased apps & music will be transferred, music you ripped on your own or photos will not be, you'll have to restore those from a backup.
    If you already have contacts in your address book, you should have received the merge prompt when you synced. Are you sure in itunes you have the contact tab checked?

  • Syncing SMS from iPhone 3GS to MacBook Pro

    I want to sync SMS from my iPhone to my Mac, but I don't know how and Google has failed me. I don't want to jailbreak my phone, or hack it in any way, and I don't want to pay for software if there is a free alternative. Everyone seems to be recommending Syphone, but it's outdated and won't support my phone.
    How can I do this quickly and easily?
    Thanks in advance.

    Like it or not, you need third-party software and I don't know of anything free that works. Get this:

  • Can you copy contacts from iphone 3gs to a pc?

    I want to copy my contacts from iphone 3gs to pc so i can copy them back to my new iphone 4 is that possible?

    Contacts are designed to be synced with a supported address book application on your computer. With XP, this can be with Outlook 2003, 2007, or with 2010 if 2010 is supported with XP along with syncing calendar events and notes, or with the address book app used by Outlook Express called Windows Contacts for syncing contacts only. Not a good idea to depend on your iPhone or on any cell phone alone for this data which can be lost or stolen.
    If you don't have Outlook available and you don't use Windows Contacts - Windows Contacts is empty, before the first sync for this data, enter one contact in Windows Contacts. This will provide a merge prompt with the first sync for this data, which you want to select. Syncing contacts with Windows Contacts is selected under the Info tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes.
