LOCATION OF MOST RECENT BLUETOOTH WIDCOMM SOFTWARE...
1. I have btwinitialupdate.exe. I currently have software version 4.0.1.2101, but am told by Nokia tech support that I need the latest version, which is 5, in order for compatibility with the latest version of PC Suite. I realise that, at /discussions/board/message?board.id=connectivity&thread.id=114, Karim includes Widcomm 4 in the list of compatible versions, but tech support say this is not the case.
broadcom.com is incredibly difficult to search for the right thing, especially if you're a bit simple with technical things. I'd be very grateful if anyone could locate it for me.
2. My problem is that, though my 6820 is paired with my laptop, only certain thin gs can be sent by bluetooth. I can't synchronise. I've pointed out to tech support that in my Organiser > Synchronisation > Settings, nothing's set up, but they just ignore that as if it's not relevant. Is it not relevant?
3. I’ve tried to use a different way of transferring data to Outlook, seeing as Syncing wasn’t working. I’ve tried to use bluetooth in combination with the PC’s Widcomm software to do something called PIM Synchronisation. When I go to the system tray and clik Quick Connect > PIM Synchronisation, the phone asks me to accept exchange of data. I click Accept. I don't know what you do from that point on, though.
4. How do I send my Contacts & Calendar by Bluetooth individually? If I select a contact and choose to send it by bluetooth, the phone just asks if I want to disconnect from the laptop 1st. When I select No, nothing happens. It's the same for sending something from the Calendar.
Thanks very much for your help.
I especially like this part...

and then you post it on Apple forums and expect a response.
Did you send an email asking what is going on?

What is the most recent iPhone 4 software?
I try to update my software but it says I have the most recent software. However I know this is not true because I just had my phone replace by the apple store and the software that was on my phone before I re-synced it to my computer (from the back up) was more advanced then what was on my previous phone ( I.E> being able to FaceTime from a text message). So I was wondering if anyone knew the most recent version.

If that were true, you would not have been able to restore the backup.
iTunes will not allow you to restore the backup from on version onto a device running an older version of iOS.
Do you have facetime enabled? I believe there is an option in the settings to disable facetime entirely. -
Problem with most recent apple combo software update
So about a month ago I posted here about a problem I'd been having for a while that others seemed to have as well, with safari crashing and for me dashboard as well. Looking at my crash report, I was advised that most likely this was a javascript error and I did an archive install of Leopard and this did fix the problem.
However, of course the Leopard from my install disk was a little old, so today when I did all the updates again, lo and behold, my problem is back. Looking at the date that the last combo update pack came out (mid June) I'm pretty sure this is when my problem started, and now its back again because I know that's one of the updates that I just did on my computer.
So my question is, has anyone else experienced problems with this recent update, and secondly, what can I do? Should I re- archive/install and not do the update, and then just wait until the next combo update? I did the updates in order to get my itunes back in order, but I don't know if it would be detrimental to my other programs to not do this last combo update... And is there anyway I can go into my system and fix this while keeping up the update? Its just strange to me that no one else I know is having this problem, even though they keep up-to-date on all the software updates.
Any help appreciated!I get the error when I try…downloading it from the Support pages
That's very strange. Can you download anything from http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/ ?
Launch Keychain Access, select Keychain First Aid from its left-hand menu, enter your password, select verify, and click on start. If that shows any problems, then select repair. If not, select X509Anchors, click on the top item, and then click the down arrow key until you find a bad/invalid certificate. -
Cannot locate my most recent domain file
Hello,
I opened an older site in iweb that I designed a few years back, then closed it (made no changes). It was saved as a separate domain file. Now when I open iweb, it automatically opens that domain file. I have several more recent website designs that I now cannot locate. WTH??? Please someone tell me they are hiding out somewhere and I have not lost them to a technology error! Certainly it would not have saved an old domain file over a new one without at least a "hey stupid" warning???? Please help! I have no idea how I would even go about reconstructing.What I do is rename the domain files to match the website it contains, i.e. toadstutorials.sites2, etc.
So rename any existing domain files to match what they contain.
When you create a new domain file it will be named domain.sites2. Once you close iWeb go to your Users/Home/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder and rename that new domain file. This way you won't be overwriting any domain file with a new one. That'a just one approach to using that application. Using that application is more important if you're running Lion than it is when running Snow Leopard. I just find it a convenient way to quickly change the domain file to be opened by iWeb. -
Itunes wont locate the most recent backup of my iPhone
Hi
I was having a few issues with my iphone 4s so synced it in itunes and backed it up then put phone into DFU mode to reinstall the firmware 5.0.1. then went back to itunes and in the drop down list of "restore from backup" i couldnt see the backup i had made, the newest one was from Oct 2011.
in the following directory Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup i found a file with the date stamp of when i did my last backup, but this dosent show up in itunes.
is there a way of directing itunes to this specific file to make sure i can restore from my latest backup as i dont want to have to backup from a file which is 3months old.
any advice please?
Thanks
DanThis process is described in this article: iTunes: About iOS backups
Where iTunes backups are stored on your computer
The folder where your backup data are stored varies depending on the computer's operating system. Make sure the backup folder is included in your periodic data-backup routine.
iTunes places the backup files in the following places:
Mac:~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup/
Basically you'll have to restore the whole backup folder, leaving the content untouched, from that point in time when you still had your latest backup. Before you start, copy the backup folder to a save place, just in case. -
"White Screen" error after most recent update 60 gig video iPod
I just received the most recent iPod updater software. I installed the updater and ran same. After the update process my 60 gig video iPOD cannot be recognized by my MAC G5. It has a "White Screen" and WILL NOT turn off! When I attempt a reset it simply gives me a 2 or 3 tone beep (I've never heard the tone before). The screen goes dark and it reboots to a white screen. I've re-installed updater and iTunes. I've switched USB ports. I've shut down the computer as well as rebooted same. I've allowed the iPOD to fully discharge (which happened quickly since the screen will not blank). When the unit is plugged into the USB port it charges and the white screen reappears. The updater now refuses to see the iPod so I cannot reset to factory defaults. Any ideas?

Ok, for all the others out who experience this problem....I spent about an hour on the phone with Apple. You have to go to their SECOND level of support to get an answer. But there is a fix.
If you have a white screen and the unit beep 3 times after a reboot here's what you need to do to fix the problem. Warning all you data will be lost. It will have to be downloaded via iTunes again!
Disconnect the iPod from the computer. Hold the Select and Menu button down for about 7 seconds to until you get a beep. Then hold down the Select and PLAY button for 10 seconds. This will put the unit in hard disk mode. Wait awhile until the Apple screen goes away and if you get a progress bar wait until it is gone.
At this point it will take some finagling, but you basically hook the iPod back up to the computer and do a RESTORE. The iPod should be recognized by iPod updater. Your data MAY still be in place, but if you do not do a restore to factory defaults with the updater you will get the white-screen-three-beeps-problem again.
Once you reboot into the language screen you can reconnect the iPOD and download your data from iTunes.
I complained this info SHOULD be posted online. They guy was very nice and agreed but said that engineering was still collecting data. He thought it was a dumb idea not to post online or allow the first level support guys to fix the problem.
Hey Apple...if you read this how about collecting data on your goddamned time and at your expense. You're the SOBs that collected $399 for the product! Ever seen the Comcast or AOL video on YOUTUBE? You guys could be next! -
Since installing the most recent version of iTunes, I have to accept the software terms and conditions every time I go in to iTunes. I sign in to my account, but when I re-open iTunes, as well as having to accept the terms and conditions before continuing, I find that iTunes has logged me out of my account. None of this has happened before. I am using a PC with Windows 8.

Hi, I have a late 2011 MacBook Pro but cant get the mirroring function to work with Apple TV. I've got the most recent Software 10.7.5 but cant see the mirroring icon or turn this on. I'm able to mirror from my Ipad but not my Mac, any thoughts?
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
AirPlay Mirroring is supported on your Mac, but it needs OS X Mountain Lion (10.8). See > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5404
You have two possibilities:
1. Make a backup, open App Store and purchase Mountain Lion to upgrade to this OS X. Then, you will find the AirPlay Mirroring icon at the top right of the display, on the menu bar, or on System Preferences > Displays.
2. Keep OS X Lion and use AirParrot > http://www.airparrot.com
Both options work properly, but I recommend AirPlay Mirroring as it doesn't need a third-party program -
In IE when you show the drop-down list from the location bar, it show you all of your most recently visited pages in descending order with the most recent at the top. Firefox is showing me a list that I have no idea where it's getting the pages from or how it's ordering them. It doesn't update the pages or the order when I go to a new page. I have recently switched from IE to Firefox and cannot figure out how to get Firefox to do this; very annoying.
That drop down list doesn't show recently visited pages, but shows list list of most visited sites sorted by what the Mozilla devs call frecency (frequency and recency) and is based on bonus points. It is not possible to have much influence on what shows on that list.
If you want a list of recently visited sites then you can use a smart bookmark e.g. on the Bookmarks Toolbar with the location set to this smart folder.<br />
Name: <b>Recently Visited</b><br />
Location: <b>place:queryType=0&sort=4&maxResults=30</b><br />
You need to close and restart Firefox to make that folder work as intended.

How can I convert my Open Source document files into Word document files? I cannot download Pages since my Macbook Air does not have the most recent software. I downloaded open office to my mac to try and save money. It worked well for a while. Now I get this pop-up message that asks me to "Reopen" and when I select the option, nothing happens. I cannot save my documents anymore and I cannot convert them to word. Help!

Does OpenOffice output Word documents by default or do you have to select it manually?
You have 17 options to save as in Open Office, one of which is .doc files, yes it needs to be saved manually.
You may be able to default to DOC, but have not tried same.
Since Open Office is 99% same as Word, I use it, or Word, either one. Open Office is a bit less buggy than Word 11' -
After the most recent update, I can no longer access stand alone GPS services. What's up with that? I am now forced to use google location services which use up some of my data allotment.
ddmathias, I want to make sure all services are working correctly on your phone. What GPS services were you using before the update happened? What kind of issues are you having with the services? Do you get any kind of errors? Please keep us posted.

i just updated my software to maverick and my iTunes to the most recent version and i can no longer transfer songs from my iTunes to my iPod. The tracks stay gray with a stagnant circle beside them in the left column. Any ideas?
Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Unsync/delete all music and resync
To delete all music go to Settings>General>Usage>Storage>Music>Tap edit in upper right and then tap the minus sign by All Music
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device. -
When I click the down arrow on the right side of the location bar (without having typed a full or partial URL in, I am just clicking the down arrow) a history dropdown is displayed which shows 12 website URLs that I have visited, but there does not appear to be any rhyme or reason as to what is being displayed. How can I cause this dropdown to display sites visited from the most recently accessed on down? And how can I cause more than 12 URLs to be listed in this dropdown? Why I can't I scroll down through my entire history in chronological order from most recently accessed site?
