N73- Mac Bluetooth problem

i followed each step at this link http://www.nokia.co.uk/A4630765
i cannot proceed to step 8. i did everything till step 7. mac keeps on saying 'getting additional information' but nothing happens. mac has been authorised for automatic connections in the n73
i read in another thread that the pairing is to be made from the phone and not from the mac. so i did it. both sides said pairing successful. now with bluetooth and discovery on at both sides i tried exchange files either ways but failed.
i dont know what to do.
my mac and well as nokia firmwares have the latest updates.

That's your problem, Nokia are still refusing to fix this issue, that they have known about for over 8 months. Just another reason to buy an iPhone!
You are not alone...

  • N73 and Bluetooth problems

    Hello,
    I have recently purchased a N73 on Vodafone.
    Just tried to connect it to two different bluetooth headsets but neither one is detected.
    I have checked the bluetooth settings on my phone and bluetooth is switched on, phone is visible etc, but still no joy.
    One of the headsets I tried worked fine with my old phone (6610i) and the other headset is brand new (OK it is stamped with O2 on it, but I'm sure it should still work).
    Any ideas?????

    I have a new N73 with the latest firmware (I checked today) and a Nokia 610 car kit.
    I can successfully pair the 610 with the N73 but am unable to download the contacts from the handset. The Nokia support pages show a download application for a variety of handsets, but not the N73.
    Did you manage to download your contacts and, if yes, how did you do it?

  • Bluetooth problems all around - Modem in the first row.

    Hi there,
    I've got a really annoying problem with the Bluetooth Setup of my Mac. Like you can see in my system description, I use Mac OS X 10.5.6. For a long time I used my old mobile via Bluetooth and GPRS as a Modem. Now it was time for a change. I bought a new mobile which supports 3G (Nokia 5800 Xpress Music).
    I used the Bluetooth Wizard and told him to use all possible bluetooth functions of my device. I looked in the internet for the right configuration (APN, CID,...) and choosed to use the Nokia GPRS/3G Modem script which is preinstalled in Mac OS X (I also tried another one from www.taniwha.org.uk, it didn't work either).
    The very strange thing is, the first connection worked without any problem, but after disconnecting and reconnecting it didn't work anymore. Instead I've got a message that the RFCOMM-Channel can't be opened.
    I tried to fix the problem myself by searching wrong settings in some plists, but although I restored the original settings after recognizing that my changes didn't work, I've got a new problem.
    Now the status symbol of the bluetooth modem always shows up that no modem configuration could be found, although I can still try to connect via Network -> Bluetooth. Of course it doesn't work this way too.
    Sometimes the bluetooth modem works once after a reboot ( not after every reboot ). But only once!
    File Transfer always works! The Nokia Multimedia Transfer also always works.
    I definitely need advice of some of you, experts.
    I'd love to hear from you!

    Hi,
    sorry, but the problem isn't solved yet. I tried different things but nothing helped:
    I backuped and deleted the following Files:
    /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/Preferences.plist
    /Library/Preferences/com.apple.Bluetooth.plist
    /Users/benutzername/Library/Preferences/ByHost/com.apple.BluetoothHASH.plist
    But it didn't help. In fact it made things worse. Therefore I restored the backuped files.
    I deleted all bluetooth devices and installed just my new phone a bunch of times. - No change at all.
    I used FSEventer to control the Filesystem Access. That leaded me only to the files mentioned above.
    In the log-file:
    /private/var/log/ppp.log
    is the following error message logged:
    Failed to open /dev/cu.Bluetooth-Modem: Resource busy
    Up until now, I don't understand why this resource is busy.
    I figured out, that the modem works using a USB-connection. That isn't a satisfying solution but it works for now.
    Nevertheless I am still really interested in resolving the Bluetooth problem.

  • Bluetooth problem Yosemite

    I bought a new iMac 21,5 with wireless keyboard and the Magic Mouse.
    I've been using it for about two weeks now and everything was working fine, until i installed the new OSX Yosemite when it released.
    Now, about 10x an hour the computer loses the bluetooth connection with the keyboard.
    This is very annoying, since i use it for 3D drawing, and everytime it loses connection, i have to fill in the numbers again.
    I've read on the internet that a lot of people share these problems.
    Is Apple coming with a solution or update? Or can i fix this myself?
    Read something about resetting RAM etc as well. But since my computer is new, I dont think that'll do it.
    Thank you very much.

    I had the bluetooth problem where my MacBook Pro wouldn't reconnect to my external bluetooth keyboard after the initial connect when I upgraded to Yosemite. I found the solution in another thread from nashntk:  "everything were solved by resetting SMC Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)."
    So far, the SMC reset fixed all of my bluetooth issues after the Yosemite upgrade. And it seems to be an ongoing solution as one reset has allowed me to disconnect and reconnect again multiple times.

  • Bluetooth problem & restoring system software

    i am running a ppc mini with built-in bluetooth module that stopped working shortly after i bought it. i have been doing a lot of research into the 'missing bluetooth' problem which may be the result of an os update, judging by what other users report.
    the bluetooth symbol in the menu bar has the squiggly line through it, and clicking on it reveals 'bluetooth: not available'. to try and resurrect this bluetooth module i have tried the following: restarting, repair permissions, using disk utility, using tech tool, resetting the pmu, resetting the pram, deleting the 'system configuration' folder in ~/Library/Preferences... but it's still dead.
    someone has suggested that i could restore the system software, and this is where i need some advice:
    apparently the bluetooth system driver may be missing which could be reinstalled with the system restore. the mini originally shipped with 10.3.x, which i updated to 10.3.9, then last month upgraded to 10.4.x and used the recent update to reach 10.4.8, which is what i'm currently using (i haven't yet updated to 10.4.9 amidst the problems people have been reporting - i have enough problems to worry about!).
    do i restore my original 10.3.x software which shipped mith my mini, or do i restore the 10.4.x software to which i have upgraded? and in either case must i use a system restore disk which came with the mini, or software which is available for download?
    any help would be greatly appreciated. lee.

    Have you ever considered that the problem is hardware and not software?
    However, if you wish to restore your system from scratch you will have to do so from whatever system disks you have, 10.3 or a retail set of 10.4 disks which is what I am guessing you used to update to 10.4 in the first place.

  • Computer Lab bluetooth problems

    We have a lab of 8, 27" iMac i5s that all came with bluetooth mice and keyboards. The tech department at my school have no idea of how to work with macs, and named all the computers similar, and with no uniformity whatsoever. Having 24 bluetooth devices in the same room is very problimatic, as one would assume.
    What would be the best way to keep the input devices paired with their computer and ONLY with their computer?
    I have full administrative privilages (another bumble by the techs) and have a bit of experience sorting out these bluetooth problems, but i'm tired of it.
    Thanks,
    -Superdave

    I recently began teaching in a middle school with 60 iMacs in one room.  We have a constant problem with mouse connections where one computer's mouse starts controlling another computer.  We go in and unmatch them but it is a constantly recurring issue. 
    I know it was said here that once a mouse is matched to a computer that it cannot match with another but that doesn't seem to be the case here. 
    I am suspicious that perhaps this is an issue of different mice being on the same frequency (or whatever bluetooth uses) and problems crop up when computers are started before others. 
    All computers and mice are numbered so there isn't an issue of confusion there. 
    I am wondering if there is a systematic way to go through all the computers and rematch them with the mice and ensure that they are all on completely different frequencies.  Is there a limit to the number of mice that can be in one room?
    Thanks!

  • Very Strange Bluetooth Problem

    Hi There
    My mac seems to have developed a very strange bluetooth problem. When i try to connect my mighty mouse, it 'connects' then a couple seconds later disconnects, then connects and disconnects etc. during the time that it is apparently connected, the LED on the bottom of the mouse keeps flashing in the way it does when it's searching for a connection, which tells me it ain't connected at all.
    Thinking this was just a mighty mouse problem i try connect my iPhone, same problem. This time I do it with the bluetooth preferences open i notice that the status of the iPhone connection has gone funny (like it has not connected on top of the word connected in the status, one atop the other) this weirdness happens irrespective of what you connect, and only to the iPhone status, even if it's bluetooth is off.
    This weird status thing has happened before, when i was messing about with bluetooth tethering on my iPhone. So, naturally, i assume the iPhone's buggered up the system somehow. I remove it from the list of paired things and try the mouse again, no luck. I try to re add the mouse, but the pairing process doesn't complete itself before the mouse drops signal again. I can't re-pair my iPhone either for the same reason.
    how can i fix this?
    Cheers, Joe

    Hey there,
    Navigate to HD > Users > Your Account > Library > Preferences.
    Locate, and move to the Trash, this file com.apple.Bluetooth.plist.
    If still no luck, try zapping the PRAM to see if that helps. Instructions on how to do that can be found [HERE|http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1379].

  • Applet in Apple Mac OSX problem

    Hi all,
    have developing an applet long while using WinXP platform, everthing seem ok, but when i try over Apple Mac OSX, i has a loading problem saying that init failed to load ArrayList as error message said:
    ArrayIndexOutOfBound, 0...
    but when i debug print out the ArrayList content and its length, i'm sure that this ArrayList is NOT NULL and its length is NOT ZERO either. what is happening here? oh, ya, this only happen in Safari, in FireFox for Mac no problem, even Camino also pass the test, why? anyone have idea about this? because i'm new to Apple Mac.
    also, there is another question whereby, when i use FireFox for Mac to load the applet, the applet load seem no problem but it just can't display properly. what i mean is that in Windows platform (IE6), this applet show entire applet successfully, but when i try it in Mac, it show only a part of applet without any error, but when i try to refresh the page, applet is now successfully show, why?
    lastly, when a button of an applet being click and this will bring a new window with some parameters value, its work on IE in Windows platform, why it won't work for FireFox or Safari for Mac? i see prompt out saying is security problem, is there any workout of this? thanks. to summary out of junk above:
    _______________________________FireFox_____Safari_____IE
    _______________________________Win | Mac_____Mac____Win
    1. load applet for 1st time___________OK_|_NO_____FAIL____OK
    2. refresh applet after 1st load failed___OK_|_OK_____FAIL____OK
    3. when applet button click (security)___OK_|_NO_____-_______OK
    p/s: all above test was using same applet with same parameter and value.
    below is the sample i capture from Apple Mac just now:

    i has a loading problem saying that
    init failed to load ArrayList as error message
    said:
    ArrayIndexOutOfBound, 0...Well, post the stack trace.
    but when i debug print out the ArrayList content and
    its length, i'm sure that this ArrayList is NOT NULL
    and its length is NOT ZERO either. You can still get an out of bounds exception with those conditions. The list could exist, its length could be N, but you're trying to dereference position N + 5, for example.
    try it in Mac, it show only a part of applet without
    any error, but when i try to refresh the page, applet
    is now successfully show, why?My guess is that you're not calling repaint() when you should, but that's just a guess.
    lastly, when a button of an applet being click and
    this will bring a new window with some parameters
    value, its work on IE in Windows platform, why it
    won't work for FireFox or Safari for Mac? i see
    prompt out saying is security problem, is there any
    workout of this? thanks. to summary out of junk
    above:Often you can sign applets so they can do things that unsigned applets aren't allowed to do.
    Maybe you're making some kind of security mistake that Firefox and Safari are (properly) catching but IE isn't. In any event, post the error message.

  • How to Solve Wi-Fi or Bluetooth Problems on your iOS Device?

    Do you have any problem with Wi-Fi and Bluetooth on your iOS Device? Please read these steps carefully and follow it!
    These Steps that I am sharing are TESTED by 10 iOS users what had problems with Wi-Fi or Bluetooth or both and was successful
    - Please note that Resetting/Factory Resetting/Hard Resetting or Recovering or un-jailbreaking your device will not work at all -
    To Solve Wi-Fi Problems Follow these steps (But before doing anything please restart your iOS Device and see if you still have network problems):
    Step 1 Go to Settings > General > Reset > Rest Network Settings and Reset your Network Settings and wait until your device re-boots
    Step 2 Go to Settings > Wi-Fi and see if you can connect to your Wi-Fi If you can't then go to next step
    Step 3 Go to Settings > Airplane Mode and turn on Airplane Mode and shut down your device. Go to your network provider and ask to restart the Modem or do it your self (Just unplug power cord and plug it back in) You have to wait 30 seconds.
    Step 4 Boot your device and go to Settings > Airplane Mode and this time turn if off and go to Wi-Fi and see if you can connect it again. If you can't then go to next step - Note: If you are going on to Step 5 it means that your device is experiencing Critical System Error that cannot be fixed easily -
    Step 5 Go your laptop/desktop and open your browser then type this on the webpage search bar 192.168.0.1 and click enter. If it doesn't work then go and ask your network provider for an address for your modem/internet settings.
    Step 6 Change your modem/internet settings to no password and make it "available/visible for everyone" and go to your iOS device and got to Settings > Wi-Fi and see if it works this time. If it still doesn't work go to next step - Note: If you are going on to the next step it means you are experiencing Critical System Error that had been cause by glitch/bug -
    Step 7 Connect your iOS Device to iTunes on your laptop/desktop and update your iOS version -Note: this process if basically re-installing your operating system- If you can't update if because the new update if not available you have to wait for next update unfortunately
    Step 8 After updating your iOS Device Go to Settings > Wi-Fi and see if it connects to your Wi-Fi. It normally fixes the problem but if it still doesn't, it means your device is experiencing hardware problem. Visit your local Apple Retail Store or reseller and ask them for complimentary/device-exchange/warranty help or go to Apple website for online support: www.apple.com/support/ for better support.
    To Solve Bluetooth Problem all you need to do is resetting (not factory resetting) your device and see if it works, if it doesn't you will need to update your iOS or Google for more technical troubleshooting because it could be your pairing device's problem. Visit www.apple.com/support/ for better support.
    If anyone of you had these experiences and was successful troubleshooting please do share your experience. I will also be avaliable to answer your questions if you have one! Please do share your openions about my post if you have one

    If you don't mind, would you do that for me please?

  • I have a carillon 25 keyboard (bad choice, I know) and I can't get it to communicate with my mac at all! I'm running logic pro 9 and reason 5. I get signal in from my M Audio trigger finger so I know it isnt an entirely mac based problem. Thanks!!!

    Well, how have to determined no signal is being recieved to your mac?
    Have you got something that shows the actual signal? Or have you just been trying to control a VST? What software are you using by the way?
    I personnally went with a AKAI MPK25, because it's made already mapped for logic & ableton etc, so it just makes things incredibly easy.
    I would suggest you return it if you can as a dead unit & perhaps look at something else a bit easier?
    Otherwise, if you just want to get this working we can have a look a bit deeper.
    And driver? OS X driver?

  • Airport & Bluetooth problems after 10.4.7 update

    (Note: I posted this in the Tiger forums and after no response, thought I'd try here.)
    Greetings,
    After updating to 10.4.7, my iMac G5 20" iSight exhibits occasional loss of signal strength in the Airport and poor or lost Bluetooth connections with the wireless keyboard and mouse.
    The Airport and Bluetooth problems happen together at the same time. I can see the Airport signal strength drop and seconds later the mouse starts becoming slow and I usually lose connectivity with my keyboard. After about 10 minutes, signal strength returns on both.
    The system is well isolated from interference, the cordless phone is a 5 ghz unit, and all cellphones have been removed from the room, but the symptoms continue. The wireless G router is only 3 meters away in the same room.
    I reapplied the combo 10.4.7 updater, repaired permissions, cleaned caches using Applejack, zapped the PRAM and reset the SMU but the problem still happens.
    Any suggestions? It is driving me crazy.
    Thanks in advance for any help.

    I'll add a "here, here". I have a 20" iMac G5 (1.8 GHZ). Since applying 10.4.7 I have had Bluetooth disappear twice. Disappear as in: keyboard and mouse no longer function and the bluetooth icon in the menu bar disappears. Power cycle works to recover the system. A far from elegant workaround.

In the box with the disk came the product key, have put it in and it doesnt work. Please help..x

    unfortunately - you can not.  you can't even buy outlook by itself at microsoft's own website.
    does it have to be outlook?  maybe you can get away with using something else that's outlook compatible.
    how about trying Thunderbird for Mac OS?
    or maybe you can call apple and let them know you purchase the wrong version - they might give you a break and just pay the difference for the home and business version.

  • Using My N73's Bluetooth connection as adapter for...

    Hey guys,
    This is not a question that can be put into one sentence...
    I shall put it as short and descriptive as possible.
    I can connect my laptop to the internet using the Built-in Modem I have in my laptop (Dial-Up).
    My brothers laptop is new, He does not have a Modem built in and I do not have any other hardware here.
    I was thinking, Is it possible to Have the following setup
    Dial-Up -> Laptops Modem -> N73's Bluetooth connection -> Brothers Bluetooth connection (on his laptop) -> Internet.
    So actualy making a Networking Bridge from My Laptops Modem to the Bluetooth of my N73.
    (I could maybe buy a Lan Cable somewhere here and make a Networking Bridge between the Modem and the Lan port, but only if this is not possible whatsoever.)
    Thanks In Advance...

    This has been a while, and I am back home now.
    What I ment is what I said, I never mentioned my laptop having a Bluetooth connection nor using my telephone as a modem. I said that I wanted to use my Laptop as Modem and my brothers laptop as the client connection through bluetooth to my telephone wich in his way would be just a bluetooth adapter for my laptop. Now I figured that out myself and I had Dial-Up Internet on both laptops.
    Since It worked I am going to ask another question hoping that you guys will just say I don't know instead of It's not possible.
    How do I configure my N73 to become my laptops Bluetooth Adapter so I can connect any bluetooth device to my laptop.
    (saves me 20 euros, but that is not the point)
