Importing via bluetooth

Hi
When I connect my Iphone it auto syncs the photos with iphoto which is nice. However as the Iphones camera is so bad, and it doesnt do video clips, I use my Nokia for snaps. To import from my Nokia, I bluetooth over. This then gets the files in my documents folder and I then have to import to iphoto. I was wondering if I can get the photos, and MP4 clips, directly into iphoto when I bluetooth.
Thanks

Thx for answering
Can be either but as I have more storage I save it to a card. The Mac sees the cameraphone OK as it asks if I want to download. It just sticks it on the desktop and I then drag into iphoto. not a biggi but it would be nice if it did it automatically.

  • How do I import music to my mac from phone via bluetooth?

    I am trying to import music from my brother's mobile phone to my macbook (itunes) via bluetooth connectivity.  I can send one file at a time from his phone but obviously this is very time consuming so am trying to find a shorter method.  When i go to import playlist in itunes, the phone is not recognised in 'my devices'. Any suggestions please?

    Bluetooth file transfer is not supported by iOS devices.

  • Import contacts via bluetooth

    Hi there,
    I'm trying to send contacts from LG shine 8700 to my new curve.  Does anyone know if this is possible or another workaround?  "send via bluetooth" is the only way I can export contacts from the LG. 
    If this isn't possible this will be my first and last BB.
    thanks,
    G

    In another thread, I learned that there is an app to import Vcards called VCardin. So here's the workaround.
    1. make sure that USB Mass storage is enabled. (Settings/Media storage)
    2. export your contacts as Vcards. I did this on my Mac. It may not work on your phone and you'll need to use your computer.
    3. send the file to the ZTE phone via bluetooth
    4. run the VCardIn app.
    5. your contacts are now in your phone
    It's not the smoothest way to do it but it works.

  • Address Book vCards via Bluetooth to Samsung a900 "Blade" cell phone

    I'm able to export Address Book contacts as vCards and then import them into one of the new Samsung a900 "Blade" Sprint phones using Bluetooth, but with a couple of vexing problems.
    1. I should clarify that I can import vCards into the new "Blade" cell phone from Address Book via Bluetooth, but only by dragging one card at a time, a very tedious process. Unfortunately, no data transfer occurs if I select multiple cards and drag them all at the same time. I'm using OS X (v10.4.2). Perhaps v10.4.4 and/or a more current AddressBook update will make a difference, or perhaps the problems are solely at the Samsung end...
    After activating the paired phone and then launching Apple's Bluetooth File Transfer Utility, I'm dragging the vCards onto the OS X dock icon...
    But before I do this, the "No Name" problem is forcing me to manually enter the Company Name into Address Book's last name field for every card that has no personal first/last name. Again, this is necessary just to get the Samsung a900's internal phone book to display something useful for these records (besides listing each record as "No name").
    2. When the phone software sees an entry with a Company Name only (but no First/Last Name entered), it goes brain dead and lists each entry as "No Name" instead of ignoring the empty Name fields and simply listing the Company Name. This is an age-old problem with dumb cell phone software (my previous Sanyo phone did this too). Unfortunately, Address Book exporting is useless without fixing this...Is there a way to get Address Book to format exported vCards to compensate for this shortcoming in the Phone interface?
    More info on this phone and Macs is posted on an a900-Mac thread in the Samsung discussion at www.sprintusers.com. The "Blade" is Samsung's new model that copies the look-and-feel of the popular Motorola RAZR, and it is a very nice, if not entirely original, design, and a very hot phone at Sprint right now. It does have a few bugs, but some already have been addressed with a firmware update from Samsung. It's only been out since late November or early December of 2005.
    I also cross-posted these questions in the Address Book and Mail forum...

    All metioned problems are Samsung's fault. Blame them.
    I've been assuming it was a Samsung problem, and have posted help requests in cell phone forums that Samsung engineers and/or support allegedly reads. I was hoping there might be some way to automate a workaround from the computer end...
    Now, if Address Book had an option to define the fields that are to be exported or perhaps automatically sub Company Names for last names the problem would be solved when exporting for cell phones. I can't belive no one has ever encountered this before -- it has been a problem with every cell phone I have ever owned.

  • Qosmio G20-118 and Active Sync via bluetooth

    I cant make activesync to work when connecting my Pocket PC (With Windows Mobile 2003 second edition) via bluetooth. Can anyone help or post a link to a help page?
    Thanks in advance,
    Miguel Amaro

    Hi
    As far as I know the Pocket PC must be in the cradle.
    1. "Tap" on start and choose the ActiveSync program
    2. Then "tap" on "Tools" and choose "Options" in the ActiveSync Program
    3. Check under "Enable synchronization when cradled using" to see if the setting is on Bluetooth
    Important: Please remove the Pocket PC from the cradle and then return it to the cradle.
    This activates the new setting
    Bye

    how to send a photo via bluetooth from iphone 5s to laptop

    Connectivity between an iPhone and a computer via Bluetooth is extremely limited. It supports tethering (hotspot or internet sharing) if your cellular plan allows that but does not support transfer of photos. You can import photos from the Camera Roll to the computer via USB or via wifi as described in http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083

  • IPad to iMac via Bluetooth

    Is it possible to connect the iPad to an iMac via bluetooth?  I ask because my iMac does "see" the iPad via bluetooth but when I try to 'Browse' the iPad via the iMac I get the message "The device does not have the necessary services".   Am I correct then in assuming then that the iPad cannot exchange files with an iMac?

    And another thing...  Even if you did have BT capability, you can't copy any file over since each data file has to be associated with an app, thus you'd need to use iTunes to associate the file with an app in order to copy.  Alternatives are to use Dropbox or iDisk, if the associated app has that capability.  For example, to get a Pages document to the iPad, you use either iTunes to copy it to Pages/iPad or put the file on iDisk and then use Pages/iPad to import it.  But you can't just connect via BT and copy the file to some folder on the iPad. The iPad doesn't have a traditional folder system like computers.

  • IPhone 5s with hearing aids via Bluetooth. Need to use the phone for voice, what's the best distance that the mic will pick up your voice

    I wear hearing aids that are made for Apple, the audio will go into the hearing aids via Bluetooth. I'll need to use my phone for voice only.. I drive for work and have a wok oh one too and both are synced to a bluetooh headset (LG). I'm trying to figure out how to talk on both phones ( use speakerphone on work phone?) without using a bluretooh headset.  I don't know the range of the microphone on the IPHON, thinking about hanging it around my neck or put the phone into a stand/holder on the dash and use the speakerphone feature.  Looking for ideas to make this simple

    You can't do anything with that problem.
    Take your iPhone to the closest Apple Store and they will give you new one for 200€/$ or if you bought your iPhone in less than 12 months you will get it for free.

    I looked at the same sight for that and it does not say that.  This is the first time I have posted a question, you don't have to be mean about it.  I am trying to get this to work for a good cause. 
    It may be the best source of assistance is the manufacturer of the device. I suspect you will need a specific app for the iPhone to get it to work, but the site is rather ambiguous about that.

  • My iPhone 5 won't discover my iPad or any other devices via Bluetooth. Has anyone else experienced this?

    My iPhone 5 won't discover my iPad or any other devices via Bluetooth. Has anyone else experienced this?

    You haven't said which generation iPad you have, but this article might help you regardless:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3647
    I imagine Keynote Remote uses Audio/Video Remote Control Profile which should be available on both your iPhone and iPad.
    I think you're saying that since you got the new iPhone 5, these two things occur:
    1.  Your iPhone cannot discover your iPad
    2.  Your iPad cannot discover your iPhone.
    If that's true, when you turn on Bluetooth on each of the devices, you might see old devices listed that are no longer used.  If you do, I suggest clicking the white arrow to the right of such devices and clicking "Forget this device".

  • TS3048 My early 2009 Mac Pro does not connect via bluetooth to my sound bar or bluetooth mini speakers. Both my wireless keyboard and mouse have no problems connecting. What do I need to do to connect to external bluetooth devices?

    My early 2009 Mac Pro does not connect via bluetooth to my sound bar or bluetooth mini speakers. Both my wireless keyboard and mouse have no problems connecting. What do I need to do to connect to external bluetooth devices?

    I would always have a wired keyboard and mouse on hand (need not be expensive ... any cheap wired devices will work).  "Emergency recovery" procedures can activate features in random order, so the opportunity to select a recovery partition may pass before the wireless devices are recognized.
    That will let you select the "turn on Bluetooth" icon.

  • I can't connect my iphone5 to my Macbook Air via Bluetooth?

    Can someone please tell me why I can't connect my iphone5 to my Macbook Air via Bluetooth?
    Is this just the most ridiculous oversight or is there some underlying reason why this doesn't connect and function properly? How amazing would it be if I could just click on a contact number and dial from my phone like I could in 2008 via my Lenovo and my Blackberry. This blows my mind that two devices that scream compatibility are far from it. From my bluetooth options it see my device, then sends a code, I confirm and then it briefly connects only to disconnect almost immediately. #fail #appleoversight #failfailfail
    Fix it or I'm going back to PC ****

  • Print via bluetooth direct to printer

    I have the 8330 BB Curve (my 3rd blackberry) and I am trying to print directly from my bb to a printer via Bluetooth. Now I was in a store and made it work with a multifunction HP printer. I then took home a Canon IP100 portable and got a bluetooth adaptor. Canon, however does not support direct printing, only HP. So I returned it and got a portable HP H470, but the wi-fi version (couldn't get the bluetooth one easily) and tried putting the bluetooth adaptor in it, but cannot get it to print. Any suggestions?

    hello,
    it is a HP H470 issue. Contact HP support and ask them if there is a way of using that device with a bluetooth adapter.
