Intermittent outgoing signal failure with Bluetooth

Now and then, randomly, the person I'm calling using Bluetooth can't hear me, though I can hear him/her. This occurs using both a Motorola headset and my Ford Sync system, so the problem seems to be with the phone's Bluetooth. It isn't predictable; it may work fine for one call, then exhibit the problem with the very next - same call conditions, nothing changed, phone in the same place. The phone in question is an iPhone 5, with the latest software installed. The problem also happened with the iPhone 4 I had previous to this one, with about the same degree of randomness, so it probably isn't associated with anyting unique to the 5. Anyone else seeing this, or have a solution?

Alright, just got to know from the user communities that this is a common problem across many users and for some, this got rectified by getting the phone replaced.

Intermittent USB automount failure with GNOME 3

Hi all,
I'm running an up-to-date Arch64 system with a USB 3.0-capable motherboard (via xhci-hcd driver). This is a desktop system that is either in use or in sleep mode most of the time (I don't reboot often). Most of the time, auto-mounting of USB sticks or my camera works perfectly. Plug the device in, it shows up in Nautilus.
However, over the past 4-5 months I've experienced intermittent failures of auto-mount, always after the computer has been through several suspend/resume cycles. When I plug a USB storage device in, I can see it with lsusb, but it doesn't auto-mount. The only way to restore automount functionality is to reboot (restarting GNOME shell, the X server, or logging out don't do it). I've searched the forums, double checked my package installations, udev rules, etc., but can't find any problem. I finally caught some info in the logs tonight; can someone please help me understand what's going on?
This was the first time auto-mount failed after working fine a few minutes before (prior to suspend/resume). Immediately after plugging the device I got this:

A few minutes later, I unplugged the device and plugged it into a different USB hub, and automount worked! It looks like this time a scsi driver was invoked somehow....what's going on?

I am getting this problem as well. lsusb command does not show my device as being plugged into the computer. The only way to get anything off of any USB storage device is to reboot the system. Very annoying. Again, after suspend/resume is when this problem turns up.
What can I contribute to help solve this issue?

Need the opinion of experts: N85 with Bluetooth pr...

Really need the opinion of experts on this one.
My N85 was swapped after the complaint that the Music Library Menu opened automatically after pairing with bluetooth of the car (permanent failure). Another complaint was that video recording was defective (intermittent failure). Also, Nokia detected great consumption of battery.
My question is: the swap came back the same relating to the bluetooth problem.. Is this a case of bad repair or a case of low knowledge...? I'm wondering if the Music Library Menu is to open when pairing with car bluetooth (strangely)....

The Dell Precision 380 has 3 PCIe slots: a x16 (for video cards), a x1,
and a x4. I'm sure there are other PCs on the market with
multiple PCIe slots.
Alternatively, the PCIe-8362 has TWO cabled PCI Express links. So
you only need one slot in your host PC. This may not be the best
solution, however, if bandwidth is your primary concern. With one
8362 connected to two chassis, the total maximum throughput is 160
MB/s. With two 8361s (each connected to a different chassis), the
total maximum throughput is 220 MB/s (110 MB/s on each).
Finally, keep in mind that the PXI chassis in your system are still
running at PCI speeds (132 MB/s). Plus, this bandwidth is shared
across all devices in the system. So the MXI Express connection
to the chassis may not be the bottleneck in the system.
Good luck!

I cannot get my iPhone to connect with bluetooth to my Sony sound bar. I have tried everything. It searches and says underneath in the gray "Now Discoverable". Suggestions? It is the Sony 4-452-002-14 sound bar.

We just installed our soundbar and cannot connect our iphones with bluetooth. My friend has the same iphone (5S) and works fine.
He does have a different carrier (ATT) I have Verizon. I would not think that would matter. His iphone connection was immediate. We did repower the speaker and that did not work. My phone is searching for a signal and below that in the gray it says (now discoverable) THe powerbar is the Sony 4-452-002-14. Suggestions?

Hello, OhBuckeye.
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
Sometimes the issue may simply be resolved by placing the accessory in pairing mode. However, when experiencing issues with Bluetooth connections, here are a couple articles I would recommend going through.

Intermittent HDMI signal on my Mac Pro late 2013

Brand new Mac Pro. Used for short periods of time for a week with no problems. After these few days, during a little bit longer session of work, I got display problems. Intermittent output signal by HDMI cable with image disappearing from monitor and coming back for some times. Problem occurred both in 720P and 1080i mode. The problem appeared and disappeared for several times. During one of this occasions also some bad green pixel remained stuck on the display.
Left the Mac on for all the night, this morning I do not notice any problem. Does anyone knows which kind of problem I got??
It seems to be a graphic card problem isn't it??
Thanks for help to everyone.
System: Mac Pro late 2013 - 6-core - 32 Gb ram - 512 Gb HD - FirePro D500 3 GB - Mavericks 10.9.5

Nothing connected to Thunderbolt ports.
Do I need to to reset SMC and PRAM anyway??
The Mac is connected to the Tv/monitor through my Bose LifeStyle.
Bose LS is setted to 1080i resolution and upscales the signal of the mac when in 720p.
Already tried at 1080i on 1080i and changed HDMI plug but problem shortly occurred.
Same device used in tha same way for years with Mini Mac without problems.
Is it possible there is some conflict between output of the Mac PRO HDMI and Bose LS??

Bluetooth Dongle for MacPro ('09 with Bluetooth)

Folks.
I am really keen on buying a Magic Trackpad to use with my Mac Pro (2.93Ghz 8 Core 2009 model with Bluetooth internal).
I purchased a Magic Mouse - only to find it was useless due to the poor Bluetooth reception. My Tower sits to my left under my desk in a compartment just for the tower - my right (mouse) hand is some 4.5 feet away from the Tower - The bluetooth signal has to pass through 2 thick layers of MDF. If I was left handed I'd be fine, however
Im worried the Magic Trakpad will have similar issues (ie: I won't be able to use it).
So, what USB dongle is supported by MacOS X 10.6? Which one should I buy. I could stick it into the back of one of my 2 x 24" LED displays.
Any help is greatly appreciated - as I really want to be kitted up for multi-touch for when Lion arrives.
Scott

Ah ok, yeah removed the network settings.
Still not working. I've got fresh batteries in it. Pairing light is flashing on trackpad.
but im getting these screens:
Thanks

Intermittent Home Button Failure on iPad 1

I bought one of the early iPad “1” 64GB iPads in June 2010 in the Apple store, Belfast. Used for leisure at home and always within a good case it has provided great service since then; that is until loading the pre-iOS 5 download.
It may have been just a coincidence (a point confirmed at the Belfast Apple Genius Bar yesterday) but ever since then my iPad has contracted an intermittent Home Button failure.
Yesterday, after around 6 weeks of hoping that subsequent iOS upgrades would have corrected the fault I finally took the ailing iPad to the Belfast Apple Genius Bar for a hopefully simple resolution. Unfortunately there was none. The two options provided were:
1.    Live with it and use the accessibility options which has a floating software-based home button overlaid on the screen; or
2.    Pay over £220 for a replacement iPad. – Ouch
That really stung, particularly given the light use the iPad has received compared to the pounding the home buttons on the couple of iPhones I’ve used over the past 3.5 years without failure.
Three questions really:
1.    Has anyone else had a similar Home Button failure on an early iPad 1
2.    Does anyone have any better solution than forking out for a replacement
3.    Could Apple not give their ailing iPads a new lease of life and develop a plug-in home button to fit into the connection socket underneath and clip over the ailing Home Button as an optional override which could also double as an accessibility accessory?

IT WORKED!! :)
After growing increasingly frustrated with the lack of responsiveness while both multitasking or simply closing an app, I tried this this little trick rather than taking more extreme measures.
I'm very happy to report that it seems to have worked like a charm!!
The home button works as well as it did when my phone was brand new over a year ago!
THANK YOU Henk B.!!

Intermittent Weak Signal; is base station dying? (Graphite)

I have a graphite base station running through a Netgear router and then a cable modem. For the past few months I've been experiencing an intermittent weak signal, which makes internet browsing extremely frustrating. There are 3 computers that use the internet through the base station - 2 running Jaguar, 1 with Panther. (Planning to update the Jaguars to Tiger very soon). The base station has been in the same location for years. This seems to be a dense wireless location, so I suspected interference. So, I tried several things including changing the channel several times, physically moving the station somewhat, changing multicast rate, changing password, etc. Though there are times when I do get a relatively normal speed internet transmission, I'm still experiencing the random periods of extreme slowness. The slowness seems to occur most often when I've been online for awhile or late in the day.
Any opinions? Should I think about replacing the base station or is it possible that some interference problems are insurmountable? Other ideas? Thanks for suggestions.
Jen

No, there isn't any unusual LED behavior. The signal/transmission is just very very slow sometimes.
The utility program connects and functions normally. Also, I checked the router via an ethernet cable. It is running normally, at normal speed. The problem appears to be occurring in the ABS (v 3.84).

Intermittent StgCreateDocfile / StgOpenStorageEx failure

I'm posting this on the hops that someone else has run across this.
I;m trying to get out ahead of this as we've never seen this issue before and with in the last two days we've received a number of failure reports from customers
detailing this problem.
Our legacy application uses structured storage. It's been working well for the last 15 years... (Damn I'm old!)
In that few days we've received reports from customers that they are receiving an error when opening data. The failure occurs when StgOpenStorageEx is called. it returns HRESULT 0x80004002, with error message "Class does not support automation
or does not support expected interface."
Interestingly enough if I try the StgOpenStorageEx call with IID_IPropertySetStorage instead of IID_IStorage it returns an interface.
As noted the same code has been running properly for 15 years. Now we've got several reports of these failures. All appear to have happened on Windows 7 Pro, 64 bit, with up to date with Windows Update fixes/patches/updates.
I'd sure appreciate notification if any one else has run across this. It is intermittent.
Thanks for any help.

STDMETHODIMP Session::LoadFile(BSTR file)

STGFMT_ANY, 0, NULL, NULL,
IID_IStorage, (void **) &store);
if (hr == S_OK)
try
CComPtr<IStream> stream;
// got a file to write to....
hr = store->OpenStream(OLESTR("Session"), 0, STGM_DIRECT | STGM_READ | STGM_SHARE_EXCLUSIVE, 0, &stream);

// and release the stream

TLS connection failure with Exchange 2013 (SEC_E_WRONG_PRINCIPAL)

Hi all -
I have Lync 2013 with a single front-end server and am trying to properly integrate with a single Exchange 2013 SP1 server. The Exchange server has certificate signed by GeoTrust, assigned to all roles - IIS, SMTP, POP, IMAP, UM, and UMcallrouter. I'm
seeing the below in my FE logs and am unsure as to why Lync is using the .local address when I have been specifying external FQDNs for the mail server in Lync.
TLS outgoing connection failures.
Over the past 1 minutes, Lync Server has experienced TLS outgoing connection failures 1 time(s). The error code of the last failure is 0x80090322(SEC_E_WRONG_PRINCIPAL) while trying to connect to the server "MAIL.xxxx.local" at address [172.16.3.14:5061],
and the display name in the peer certificate is "Unavailable".
Cause: Most often a problem with the peer certificate or perhaps the host name (DNS) record used to reach the peer server. Target principal name is incorrect means that the peer certificate does not contain the name that the local server used to connect. Certificate
root not trusted error means that the peer certificate was issued by a remote CA that is not trusted by the local machine.
Resolution:
Check that the address and port matches the FQDN used to connect, and that the peer certificate contains this FQDN somewhere in its subject or SAN fields. If the FQDN refers to a DNS load balanced pool then check that all addresses returned by DNS refer to
a server in the same pool. For untrusted root errors, ensure that the remote CA certificate chain is installed locally. If you have already installed the remote CA certificate chain, then try rebooting the local machine.
Any advice/pointers you can give are greatly appreciated.

When integrate Lync and Exchange UM, you need to generate new certificate. The certificate should contain the server’s FQDN.

Welcome to Apple Discussions
It is frustrating to find content not playable on Safari. Yahoo Music is one example. The Mac does come with adequate plug-ins - if only certain sites would cooperate too! Eventually, these limitations will go away. But for the moment there is a PC bias evident in certain web sites. When I run into the Safari wall, I use Firefox as an alternative. Seems it has an easier time with media content than Safari. Have you tried it?
Not sure why you had problems with the WMP download? Flip4Mac, which lets you view Windows Media content through Quicktime, would be a good alternative for Windows Media Player.

Does the printer actually support BlueTooth? If the printer is wireless, then most likely it uses Wi-Fi. Did you read the user guide that came with it? Or contact Canon tech support at their website.
