ISync (and BT File Exchange) Mysteriously Stop Working...

Hi there. I've been very happily syncing my Sony Ericsson Z520a with my Powerbook G4 for a while. Almost a year in fact. Now, suddenly, isync stopped being able to connect to my phone. I have checked everything I know how to check; bluetooth is enabled on both my phone and my computer and the two are able to see each other, and all the settings on my phone and my computer are the same as they were before this stopped working.
I'm getting this error:
[Z520a] Connection to the phone failed.
Please make sure that your phone is turned on. If this error occurs again, please restart your phone.
Device "Z520a" synchronization failed
At first my computer couldn't see my phone, and my phone couldn't see my computer. When this first happened and I was trying to figure out what was wrong, I noticed that the "Computer Name" in the Bluetooth System Preference pane had gone to "Not Available". Initially I tried changing the name of my computer under Sharing, but that didn't help, so I restarted the computer and the phone. Then I re-paired the two devices. They saw each other just fine after that, and when I hit sync in iSync my phone is definitely communicating with my computer (its bluetooth activity indicator says it's communicating) but I still get the above error, and nothing is being transfered between my phone and computer. When I try to Browse my phone with Bluetooth File Exchange, it tells me "The connection Failed or Closed."
So, can anyone help me? Synchronizing my phone's calendar with my iCal is a big thing for me, and I really need to find a way to make it work again.
Thanks!

Hi- I'm a Verizon customer, not Cingular but I know that Verizon purposefully cripples their phones to not allow BT file transfer... forcing you to email your pics, etc... which costs money. I would guess that maybe Cingular does the same?
As you've noticed... the Razor IS compatible with iSync... and there aren't a ton of phones that even do that, so that's a positive. I have a Motorola e815 and there ARE ways on the net to hack it to enable BT file transfer, though I'm not going to try them. Does the Razor have a memory card? I bought a memory card for my phone and I do transfers that way.
Anyway... like I said, I'm not sure that this is a Cingular issue, I'm just offering a thought since that's what I'm dealing with. You might try browsing the iSync part of the forums to find more info!

Hi,
Did you try to restart SCSM's services?
If this doesn't help, I would try to delete and recreate the connectors.

If your iPod Touch, iPhone, or iPad is Broken
Apple does not fix iDevices. Instead, they exchange yours for a refurbished or new replacement depending upon the age of your device and refurbished inventories. On rare occasions when there are no longer refurbished units for your older model, they may replace it with the next newer model.
ATTN: Beginning July 2013 Apple Stores are now equipped to do screen repairs/replacements in-house on iPhone 5 and 5C. In some cases while you wait. According to Apple this is the beginning of equipping Apple Stores with the resources needed to do most repairs for iPhones, iPads, and iPod Touches that would not require major replacements. Later in the year the services may be extended as Apple Stores become equipped and staffed with the proper repair expertise. So, if you need a screen repaired or a broken screen replaced or have your stuck Home button fixed, call your local Apple Store to see if they are now doing these in-house.
You may take your device to an Apple retailer for help or you may call Customer Service and arrange to send your device to Apple:
Apple Store Customer Service at 1-800-676-2775 or visit online Help for more information.
To contact product and tech support: Contacting Apple for support and service - this includes international calling numbers.
You will find respective repair costs in the appropriate link:
iPod Service Support and Costs
iPhone Service Support and Costs
iPad Service Support and Costs
There are third-party firms that do repairs on iDevices, and there are places where you can order parts to DIY if you feel up to the task:
1. iResq or Google for others.
2. Buy and replace screen yourself: iFixit

When I import PSD file then Catalyst stopped working why?

HI,
When I import PSD file then Catalyst stopped working .why? it's a BUG?
Please find the attached image

I'm an a mac, and I haven't had the problem, so I'm not the best for advice. That said, I am sure FC on the pc can import .psd file. I would check the psd for anything "abnormal". If it is a complicated file, simplify as much as possible, flatten effects especially.
**Upload the psd, I could try to import it and upload a fxp

Microsoft exchange just stopped working.

Microsoft exchange just stopped working, getting error message "cannot get mail, the connection to the server failed" no settings have been changed on my iPad.

Handed it over to my LAN administrator and they managed to sort it out. Basically deleted everything and switched it off then re loaded mail account. Now it works.

After a tryout with AdBlock, the videos on Facebook, on BBC and on some others websites stopped working and there's always a message asking me to install the latest version of the Flash Player. Even though it's already installed. How can I fix that?

After a tryout with AdBlock, the videos on Facebook, on BBC and on some others websites stopped working and there's always a message asking me to install the latest version of the Adobe Flash Player. Even though it's already installed the situation remains the same since the last month.
Can I fix that just doing the upgrade for the Yosemite?

Well, after hours of trying to figure it out I gave up and un-installed and re-installed that last verion of Adobe Flash Player and now it seems I can play games again in Messenger. Everything else had been fine just that. I can only figure it was because it was having a hard time updating the first time and took me 3 tries. So even though it said it was installed, apparently it wasn't done correctly.
Though when I couldn't figure out what was wrong at first I looked and checked to see all the things were enabled that were supposed to be and they were.
I even tried to go to the Adobe site and download the last version I had and couldn't find it. Kept coming up with the new version. Others said if you download a particular older version it may not have all the security features in it.
This really gets to be a bit much, especially when you're by yourself and have only a smattering of knowledge of technical things.
Thanks fore responding to my question.

Very simple take it to an Apple Store or AASP and have it professionally diagnosed. Anything else would be guessing. Do NOT spend a penny on it until it is professionaly diagnosed otherwise you stand and excellent chance of throwing good money after bad.

Command+Return and Shift+Return keyboard shortcuts stopped working

I'm using Firefox 4.0 on a 21.5" iMac running Mac OS X version 10.6.7. Just this morning, the command+return and shift+return keyboard shortcuts to auto-complete the .com and .net addresses of websites stopped working. Command+w still closes a tab, and command+left click still opens a tab in a new window. However, when I type anything in the address bar ("mac" for example) and then hit command+enter, Firefox opens up a new tab with a Google search for the word I typed. The address for this new tab is as follows:
http://www.google.com/search?q=mac&ie=utf-8&oe=utf-8&aq=t&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&client=firefox-a
Any idea what gives? I'm rather perplexed and frustrated.

Just removed OmniBar and the problem went away.

I have just upgraded to the latest version of OSX as invited by Apple. Since then iTunes will not play and my volume controls have stopped working - in Preferences the sound controller is not able to find any input or output devices. What is going on?

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, or by a peripheral device.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards. Boot in safe mode* and log in to the account with the problem. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
Shut down your computer, wait 30 seconds, and then hold down the shift key while pressing the power button.
When you see the gray Apple logo, release the shift key.
If you are prompted to log in, type your password, and then hold down the shift key again as you click Log in.
*Note: If FileVault is enabled under OS X 10.7 or later, or if a firmware password is set, or if the boot volume is a software RAID, you can’t boot in safe mode. Safe mode is much slower to boot and run than normal, and some things won’t work at all, including wireless networking on certain Macs. The next normal boot may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
There will be no audio output in safe mode. The question to be answered by the test is whether any devices are listed in the Sound preference pane. After testing, reboot as usual (i.e., not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

From the Safari menu bar, select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
Turn all extensions OFF and test. If the problem is resolved, turn extensions back ON and then disable them one or a few at a time until you find the culprit.
If you wish, you may be able to salvage the errant extension by uninstalling and reinstalling it. Its settings will revert to their defaults. If the extension still causes a problem, remove it permanently or refer to its developer for support.
