Macbook pro 17 inch and iphone bleutooth tethering broken again.

Hi,
Before the lastest security patch my bleutooth tethering connection finally worked. That was cool
However now it doesn't work anymore. I believe the latest security patch of mac osx broke it.
Does anyone have the same experience?
regards,
Okpail

Hi Okpail,
Try recreating the bluetooth connection as described below.
Make the iPhone forget the MacBook Pro by tapping Settings> General> Bluetooth> tap the MacBook Pro connection> tap the blue (>) arrow> tap Forget this Device.
Also, forget the iPhone on your MacBook Pro, just click Bluetooth, in System Preferences> click your iPhone name> click the minus icon> Restart your computer.
Then setup the Internet tethering over Bluetooth as described here: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2756

I'm having trouble with "maps" on Macbook Pro, iPad and iPhone. It shows my current location and hour away from where I am. As soon as a move iPhone away from my wifi at home to cellular it shows my correct location. No help from Time Warner.

What can I do to get "maps" to work on my Macbook Pro, iPad and iPhone when connected to wifi at home. iPhone "maps" work fine when connected to cellular service. Maps on wifi shows me about 55 minutes away from my current location. Very frustrating. I called Time Warne,r my service provider, but they had no answers since they were not knowledgeable of this situation. Anyone else having problem? I just updated all devices to newest update. Is that the problem.

Did you bring your wireless router with you? If so, it's possible the iPad is getting its location through the router and the router still "thinks" it's where you used to live.
Try taking your iPad to another location where there is wifi (such as a coffee shop). Then, try an app that uses location services. If it's accurate at another location, then the source of your problem is your router.

I keep trying to sync things among my MacBook Pro, iPAD, and iPhone. Usually this works fine for a few days, but then I notice that the calendars aren't syncing and the "notes" aren't syncing. How can I get them all to stay in sync?

I have a MacBook Pro running OS X Yosemite, version 10.10.2.
I have an iPad 2 running 8.1.3
I have an iPhone 6 Plus running 8.1.1
I have my Mail, Contacts, Calendars, and Notes set up to sync over iCloud among the three devices.
I haven't had a problem with the Mail or Contacts syncing (at least not as far as I know), but the Notes and the Calendars don't seem to stay sync'd up. I will notice that they aren't sync'ing, will delete and re-sync and they are fine for a while, but inevitably they stop sync'ing at some point. This has been true through earlier incarnations of operating systems, so not something new.
How can I get them to sync and stay sync'd?

There used to be a tab under Itunes that allowed you to select to sync things like calendar, notes etc. but this is no longer there, can anyone help?
This was removed in 10.9. You may have better luck getting assistance in the relevant Mac forum.

HT6154 Updated os now mac mail errors on macbook pro, mac, and iphone

I recently updated my os on my macbook pro (os 10.9.2) and my iphone (7.1.1), now I am unable to consistently access my email accounts on any of my devices. My gmail works sporadically, my exchange worked at first, and stopped working on my iphone and my mac. I have tried deleting & adding accounts that solved the problem for a little while when it first happened, but it has conitnued. I get pop up errors on iphone including "The connection to the server failed." When I try to add my exchange account, the error reads, "unable to verify account information." It allows me to save my account info, but then continues to ask for my password and never connects. On my macbook pro, the accounts will go off-line and I have to regularly use the connection doctor. I can access all of my accounts through my email service providers. Any suggestions?

Please follow these directions to delete the Mail "sandbox" folder.
Back up all data.
Triple-click the line below to select it:
~/Library/Containers/com.apple.mail
Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
Services ▹ Reveal
from the contextual menu.* A Finder window should open with a folder named "com.apple.mail" selected. If it does, move the selected folder — not just its contents — to the Desktop. Leave the Finder window open for now.
Quit and relaunch Mail, and test. If the problem is resolved, you may have to recreate some of your Mail settings. You can then delete the folder you moved and close the Finder window. If you still have the problem, quit Mail again and put the folder back where it was, overwriting the one that may have been created in its place. Post your results.
Caution: If you change any of the contents of the sandbox, but leave the folder itself in place, Mail may crash or not launch at all. Deleting the whole sandbox will cause it to be rebuilt automatically.
*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C). In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar, paste into the box that opens (command-V). You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.

Can I put an app i bought for my macbook pro onto my iphone without buying it again?

I was just wondering if I bought an app for my Macbook Pro and I want to use it on my iPhone as well, is there a way to download it onto my iPhone without purchasing it again?

The issue is that apps that run on an iPhone run on the iOS. Apps that run on your Mac are designed for the Mac OS X. Two different operating systems.
An app that runs on an iOS based device cannot run on the Mac OS X and vice versa.

I have different music on my IPod, Macbook Pro, IPad, and IPhone, how can I get all the music from all my devices onto all of my devices?

Iam new to Apple apart from my IPod. All of my devices have different music on them and I want all of my music on all of the devices, how do I go about this. Some has been purchased from ITunes so that has been fine, but other stuff purchased from other online stores and my old CD's I put onto my IPad via an old PC I have no idea how to get onto everything.
Thanks
Dean

This is all just a partial answer since details will depend upon how you want to do it.
Post by Zevoneer: iPod media recovery options - https://discussions.apple.com/message/11624224 - this is an older post and many of the links are also for old posts, so bear this in mind when reading them.
Commercial software utility for transferring songs from i-device to Mac - http://www.fadingred.com/senuti/
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1848 - just media purchased from iTunes Store
You'll need to get it all onto one iTunes collection on your Mac Pro, then sync the devices to that. iTunes only lets you transfer purchases from a device, otherwise you have to use third party software.
I guess you could also look into getting iTunes Match.

I have a mac mini server with leopard, macbook pro, imac and iphone 4 i would like to use the server as the host for all mail, contacts, directories, intranet etc i would like all devices to have mail pushed using outlook as the prefered mail client?

can anyone shed some light on how to do this i am currently using the server as a file storage system but feel it can deliver far more; ideally i would like the following;
email to push to all devices once sent form one device all devices have a copy of the sent item
accounting software that is shared on the server
access the files and directories securely form anywhere
create and host an intranet site
any ideas of how to setup easily or step by step guides
help would be greatly appreciated

Start by getting DNS properly configured. If DNS isn't properly configured, most other services won't work right.

Then, the OS X server documentation will provide a wealth of knowledge on configuring services.

I saved photos from my Macbook Pro onto my Iphone (using itunes, 4 years ago). My macbook is now dead and I need to get the photos I saved off of my iphone 3GS transferred to a pc. Any help... From my PC I can only access "internal storage"

The iphone is not a storage/backup device. The picture sycn is one way - computer to iphone. The photos are also reduced in size when synced to iphone so they are not of the original quality
It has always been very basic to always maintain a backup of your computer.
Have you failed to do this?
If so, not good at all, you can e-mail the pics to yourself - keep in mind they will never be of the original quality

HT1386 I had to replace the corrupted hard drive in my macbook pro recently, and after I did so I did a full factory software & application restore. Now my iTunes says my iPhone 5 is no longer an authorized device. What should I do?

I had to replace the corrupted hard drive in my macbook pro recently, and after I did so I did a full factory software & application restore. I had to rebuild my iTunes Library by dragging my music folders in my iTunes Media into the iTunes Application and rebuild my playlists manually. After plugging my iPhone 5 into the computer USB, it immediately recognized my iPhone 5, showing: last backups, space left on my iPhone & all options available. I then checked the box to manually manage music etc. The problem I am now having is that when I actually try to drag music from my iTunes to my phone a prompt comes up saying that my iPhone is not an authorized device. What should I do? Any and all advice would be greatly appreciated!!

jrmetzger,
iOS runs on iPads and iPhones; OS X runs on Macs.
Given your situation, I’d highly recommended that you purchase a SATA-to-USB adapter, so that you can test both your old disk and your new disk externally, since it might be that the problem is due to a faulty internal SATA cable rather than due to faulty disks.

You will have to make a second Apple ID.

I want to transfer an audiobook and a movie from my MacBook Pro to my iPhone 4S, and can't figure out how. I went to "Help" and it said after connecting the two devices I should "Click Apps," but I can't find anything labeled "Apps" to click. Help?!!

If you have iTunes 11 on your Mac then you can enable the left-hand sidebar via option-command-S, that might make it easier to navigate.
Connect the phone to your Mac and select it on that left-hand sidebar, and on the right-hand side of the screen there should be a series of tabs which you can use to select what to sync to the phone. If it's an audiobook then it should appear on the Books tab for selecting/syncing, and films will be on the Movies tab. When you've got the audiobook on your phone you should get an Audiobooks option in the Music app (you might need to tap the '...' tab at the bottom of the Music app to see it).
