K800i Bluetooth to Mac problems...

Hi, I just got myself a Sony Ericsson K800i, a superb phone, really pleased with it but one thing's bothering me...It's acting strange when connecting to my Bluetooth USB adaptor on my Mac?
I've managed to send files and phonebooks from the phone to the machine, I've also just used the remote control feature...
The one thing I can't do is a simple 'send' from the mac to the phone. I discover the phone, click send and it simply says 'validating device' and that's it, nothing happens!
I have a Belkin Bluetooth F8T012 USB Adaptor, I'm wondering if it's the driver on this but then it's strange that send file is the only thing that doesn't work?
Any help appreciated.
Alex

Yes, there seems to be some incompatibility problems with the Belkin Bluetooth F8T012 USB Adaptor. I've heard quite a few other reports from people trying to use my iSync plugins from here:
http://mobile.feisar.com/phoneplugins23.html
If you switch USB adapters to the D-Link DBT-120 (not 122) then the problems disappear for most people. The D-Link is the only officially supported by Apple USB Bluetooth Adapter anyway.

    THERE IS SOMEONE CAN HELP ME...? THANKS :-)

    What kind of problems, viniade? You didn't say.
    If it's internet problems, a connectivity problems could be related to the hosts file, which is in red.
    If it's printer problems, could be the failed Brother printer background process loading failure.
    As far as John Galt's reply is concerned, I agree with him on the Geneio problem. I've never heard of it but after I looked it up it's apparently a real problem-causer with lots of Mac users:
    https://encrypted.google.com/#q=genieo+mac+problems
    And as far as CleanMyMac is concerned, I use that myself & I've never had any problems. HOWEVER, I stick with the software makers' default cleaning procedures. Because OS cleaners, when you get into areas that you're not sure of, just do what you tell them to do. And if you're not sure of what you're doing & you go exploring & pick some cleaning procedure that you're doubtful of but despite your doubts you run them anyway, and you're wrong, then guess what..... a lot of times it's reinstall from a backup time, or even reinstall a whole OS all over again time. IF you're lucky, and IF you learned something. So lesson learned for you there, eh?
    In my experiences with people who know just enough to be dangerous (and yeah..... been there myself decades ago with both Windoze from 3.1 to 7, & Mac's OS, so done dat, learned), a lot of those folks download apps & programs & utilities that're advertised as miracle cleaners. Problem is, it seems like that the more they hype, the more likely you are to get a bunch of crap also installed if you're not paying attention to EVERY SINGLE installation dialogue that pops up in succession. Those things are written so that stuff gets installed that you really don't need, which you'll miss because they're writtent to BE missed & zoomed right on by, but which benefits the company plenty, sometimes to your Mac's detriment & sometimes to your Contacts' detriment (emailed spam), if they get into that database. Those kinds of "helpful" cleaners are in fact hackers' semi-Trojans, aka malware, spyware, adware, etc etc.
    So having said that, I'd recommend dumping your "TuneUpMyMac" app for at least the time being, until you get your Mac back up & running well again. And then, think twice about reinstalling it. Generally, in my experience, cleaning out the caches is all that's usually necessary to do as far as cleaning is concerned, aside from what should be ordinary tidiness & organization of your personal stuff on your HDD.
    Not knowing your level of expertise, I'll go ahead & suggest something I use whenever my Mac starts getting flakey: Applejack.  It's a fixit utility that's run in single-user mode (Command-S at startup chime, type in "applejack" at the prompt).  You can download it from here: http://applejack.sourceforge.net
    Currently, the Applejack makers don't have a version for Mavericks, but their latest version 1.6 runs in my own Mavericks just fine. The biggest culprit I've found thru using Applejack to most minor problems, like persistent beachballing for example, is clogged-up cache files. Applejack dumps them all, System & User caches. I should point out though that in Mavericks, Applejack may not be able to find your User folder when it asks if you'd like to clean out any User's cache folders. If that's the case, just *accurately* type out your own User folder's path: Users/yourusername and press Enter.
    Good luck to ya. And remember, if in doubt, RESEARCH WHAT YOU WANT TO DO UNTIL YOU'RE NOT IN DOUBT.  Then, with *learning* in mind, do what you WERE unsure of.
    But nontheless, make sure your Mac's backed up first AND that your restoring-from-backup apps work like they're supposed to work, using the backups that were created with those same apps, whether it's Time Machine or, say, Carbon Copy Cloner.

  • HT1515 Just installed Airport Express on Mac 10.6.8  Can't see base station.  Hard Reset the Airport.  Rebooted machine.  How can I tell if this is a Mac problem or Airport Express Problem?

    I have a Mac 10.6.8.  Just installed Airport Express.  I can't see any base stations.  I did a hard reset on the Airport Express, turned off all devices,  turned them back on.   I see plenty of Airport networks in the neighborhood.  How can I tell if I have a Mac problem or an Airport Express problem?  Airport Express blinks Amber. 

    Obviously,  I'm still using ethernet to be able to reply to this.
    Alright, use the same ethernet cable to plug directly into the airport express. This will FORCE the airport utility to now see it regardless of weak signals & interference. You can set it up that way.
    BTW, what is the original intent on the express?

  • I am running on OSx 10.6.8 using a HP officejet 6000 printer. On a 8.5x11 paper, I cannot print closer than 5/8" at bottom. Images or type cuts off at that point. HP says it's an mac problem. I tried changing evry possible print setting. Am I missing somt

    Running on OSx 10.6.8 using a new HP Officejet 6000 printer. How can I get to within 1/8" on all sides of an 8.5x11 sheet of paper. Images and copy cuts off at 5/8" at bottom. HP says it's a mac problem, not an HP problem. I tried every combination of print settings. Nothing has solved the problem. Have I missed something?

    Yes you are unfortunately you as the consumer are caught in the middle. I totally disagree with what HP told you, they supply the print drivers to Apple, Apple doesn't write printer drivers that I know of. Look in the print settings to see if you can go below 5/8", I know I can with my HP printers (Laserjet 1012, Color Laserjet 2600N, OfficeJet 7410 & OfficeJet 7700 series) so I'm sure the issue is specific to the OJ6000 series.

    Pearson put out a tech note on this today - the new versions of Java are what's causing the problem. If you can use Time Machine to rollback java prior to a java 7 or 1.6.0_37 version that will get you going again. I've been searching for hours for a place to download the older version but it seems Apple's site and Oracle all only have the latest release. Still trying to see if I have a copy downloaded on a system that hasn;t been updated to copy off to a network drive or usb and install the older version on to systems.

    An update to Java for Mac OS X was released on October 16, 2012. An issue has been identified with this Java update (Java for OS X 2012-006) which prevents teachers from launching PowerTeacher Gradebook.
    Teachers using PowerTeacher Gradebook should avoid taking this Java update to version 1.6.0_37 until notified that PowerTeacher Gradebook has been certified with this latest version of Java 1.6 for Mac OS X. PowerTeacher Gradebook will continue to work on Mac OS X workstations with Java version 1.6.0_35.
      Additional communication will be provided once a workaround is identified or an updated version of PowerTeacher Gradebook is available.

    Because Microsoft Mobile Community is rather high volume in threads, I recommend to create one thread for each topic. Especially in this case, because MixRadio has its own section. Are you able to log-into MixRadio with your Nokia Account? Are you about:
    A) individual songs (or complete album; purchase),
    B) offline mixes of MixRadio+, or
    C) MixRadio Unlimited download subscribtion.

    This is not a Mac problem. It's a known issue (although not recognized by Microsoft), it's just a flaw on the Windows Live network. it happens on the Windows client too time to time. The exact reasons are unknown.

  • Berklin bluetooth for mac

    Hi,
    I recently bought a Berklin bluetooth for mac. I have built in blue tooth in my computer but the range is not enough ( I hook up a motorola blue tooth to my computer and talk on skype this way).
    The New Berklin Bluetooth is letting me use the headset. When I hook it up it acts like another blue tooth device and recognizes my computer too (and the headset for that matter). It is not letting me sync the headset.
    In the instructions it says that Mac OS X driver and software provided by Apple.
    What can I do to make this blue tooth act like it is taking the place of the Blue tooth in my computer and not acting like another device.
    Thanks!!!

    You can use almost ANY internet connection and service provider for Macs (even if they say they don't support Macs usually)
    An ADSL connection over your phone line can get you speeds of 512kb/s minimum, usually much more. Or a cable connection (via your cable TV provider) can get you similar speeds.
    AOL is not the only internet service provider for Mac. There are literally hundreds, if not thousands in the US.
    AOL do offer ADSL broadband connections, but to be honest, you'd get a better deal elsewhere.
    Have a look here for alternative Internet Service Providers, that can provide you with better speeds at lower costs than AOL.
    Jools
    P.S. If you can't upgrade your internet connection soon, why not ask a friend to download the updates for you and burn them onto CD.
    Windows PCs are able to download these files too.
    Or ask in your local Apple Store.

  • Using Magic Mouse without a  bluetooth enabled Mac Pro?

    Is there a solution to use the Magic Mouse since I don't have a bluetooth enabled Mac Pro??

    Buy one of the small USB adapters by Belkin that support bluetooth. The only catch with my Magic Mouse has been that you have to leave the computer on -- do not let it go to sleep. Once it sleeps, you have to go back to your USB mighty mouse, restart the MP, and then you will have full access to your Magic Mouse again.
    This is not an issue for me since I leave the Mac on all the time. It puts the display to sleep, the hard drives to sleep, and everything else to sleep, except the machine itself. It works, and it's easy.
    Another catch with this setup is that it does not seem to work on Bootcamp in Windows 7, but the USB mouse seems to take care of that archaic OS just fine.

  • Problems with Bluetooth and Mac OS X 10.4.4

    Hello all,
    I recently installed the the X.4.4 update on my PowerBook, and now it is having problems connecting to my RAZR. When I try to "Rebond" to it, it says an unexpected error has occurred (on the PB), and shows no bluetooth devices. Also, I am using a program called "BluePhoneMenu", and about every 15 seconds, it changes from active, to error. It waits another 15 seonds, and changes back (never connecting to the phone.) Does anyone have any suggestions? I have created a website to show visually what the problem is. It can be found at http://homepage.mac.com/chwebb1
    Thanks,
    -Chris

    For some reason, Bluetooth is temporarily working. Is there any suggestion to get bluetooth to work 100% of the time? It is really annoying that is only works intermittently. Any help is greatly appreciated.

  • Mac mini bluetooth and safari problems

    I have done research on the boards,and so far haven't found a solution so i decided to make my own discussion.
    I have a 2009 mac mini that has run fine until this last month.When comeing out of sleep, the bluetooth magic mouse doesn't work. When i plug in a regular mouse to get me to my destop, everything in the top right toolbar is missing (adobe icon, time machine icon, bluetooth icon, wireless airport bars, and date and time) the search icon is still there, but if you scroll the mouse towards it, i get the not respinding beach ball.... if i go to system preferences, I get the not responding ball of doom as well... If i go to safari, it says i am not connected to the internet, even though when i do a network check, it says everything is up and running, If I go to restart, it just stays on the white screen with the loading circle unil i have to restart by holding in the button.....after the reset, everytihing works fine till i put the computer in sleep again (or logout of my name) .......
    I read that there are bluetooth problems with the mac mini of 2009, but this kind of sounds like more than that.. this hasn't happened before until i updated to LION... but sometimes it sounds like the mini is making a faint "squeaking" sound when it is trying to process things.. this doesn't happen often though... the mini is only 2 years old,almost 3, i can't imigine it dying soo soon... any ideas??? any help would be appreciated... thanks-bruce

    problem solved. Replaced key board, mousse and changed brands of USB bluetooth adaptor, which is now a D-Link brand I bought from an Apple store. Works like a champ.
