Os News Bluetooth How-To

Once again Arch has made headlines on Os News.  This times it's in the form of a how-to to get bluetooth working with Arch.

Cam wrote:What were you planning on doing with it?
Get on the net via a Bluetooth/GPRS phone. My laptop is dual-boot Arch and Debian, and I did this on the Debian side a good while ago, before I'd even heard of Arch. I'm gradually preparing for Arch to become my principal distro, and this is one of a few applications that I still have to transfer over.

Me neither. I have used some of the Gnome Bluetooth stuff with XFCE4 on Debian, though.

  • TS3048 I just bought a new Bluetooth mouse but I can't set it up bc my other mouse broke

    I Just bought a new Bluetooth mouse because our old Bluetooth mouse went out. I'm trying to set it up with no mouse. I can't click on anything because I have no mouse. Is there anyway to open the Bluetooth connections just using the keyboard?

    You have me confused as to where the apps really are. You mention iPod and mention that the iPod isn't your primary computer. Obviously, it can't be - its an iPod. I'm not trying to be a jerk - I just dont understand what that means.
    The you say that the old computer is the primary computer for iTunes. That makes more sense. Anyway, you could have transferred the iTunes library from the old computer to the new Mac, but I assume that you did not realize that.
    So ... If the apps are on your iPad - but did not transfer to iTunes when you synced the iPad with the new Mac - transfer Purchases. Connect the iPad to the Mac, launch iTunes, right click on the iPad name on the left and select Transfer Purchases. That will put the apps in iTunes on the Mac.
    Movies cannot be downloaded again for free because Apple does not have an agreement with the movie studios to allow for that. At least that is how I understand the way that works.

  • Creative's HS-1200 Wireless Headset Featuring New Bluetooth Alternative.. coming to the UK?

    I've been having a lot of problems with Bluetooth stereo headset that incorporate a Voip functionality for hands-free talking especially in the stereo mode so I was just about to spend hundred pounds plus on the Plantronics CS60-USB with its proprietary wireless hundred metre range which would serve my voice recognition and voip needs and also the Plantronics .Audio™ 770 which is a non-wireless stereo multimedia headset with a voip and voice recognition incapable microphone.But then I remembered reading the CES 2008 gizmodo.com coverage about this little beauty coming from Creative, "Hands On: Creative's HS-1200 Wireless Headset Featuring New Bluetooth Alternative" hit the link to read, for that my reason for coming to the forum today as I'm hoping that somebody from creative Europe read these forums and can tell me when the HS-1200 is coming to the UK?we are having a full duplex propriety wireless technology be able to listen to stereo music and games while using the microphone for voice or voice recognition, how cool is that! Which is something I have not been able to do with any of my previous four Bluetooth headsets.Any help appreciated, thank you - Optical10

    Hi Guys
    Seems like there's still no concrete date or no definate commitment for UK & Europe?

    What version of Premiere Elements is still installed activated on the old computer (what is your old operating system)?
    What version of Premiere Elements are you going to install and activate on your new computer (what is your new operating system)?
    Before you do anything, how many of your computers now have the same Premiere Elements purchased/activated serial number installed on them - just that one old one?
    The answers to the above might help us to help you so that you do not have to contact Adobe.

    Pages 08 fonts- problems with Arial, Times New Roman - how do I repair them?

    I am running Snow Leopard. Transferring the same texts to TextEdit has no problems, so this is a Pages problem, I think.  Corruption of Times New Roman and Arial fonts, I suspect, but where? and what do I do about it? I just need to be pointed to a source of advice, I think.
    Thanks

    Assuming your MBP is a recent model, i.e. bought in the last couple of years, and that your TV has HDMI inputs (if you've bought it new then that's a safe assumption) then you need a mini-displayport to HDMI cable.  The Apple Store sell one:

    You are allowed to have two machines with activated installations, so if you only had one installation, you still have the option to install on a second without doing anything further than that.  If you originally downloaded the purchase thru Adobe then you might find a download link available in your Adobe account online.  You can also download thru the following page if you can find your version:
    Download and Installation Help -
    https://helpx.adobe.com/download-install.html
    You can have the first installation deactivated to free up the activation and have it available for another machine again as well.  YOu need to contact Adobe Support thru chat for that.  For the link below click the Still Need Help? option in the blue area at the bottom and choose the chat option...

  • Connected a new 2nd phone to my laptop and when asked to setup as new or restore, I chose to restore. Now thinking I should have setup as new. How do I change this?

    I connected a new 2nd iphone to my laptop. When asked to setup as new or to restore from backup, I chose restore because I thought it would load all of the apps and their relevant data faster. Now I'm wondering if I shouldn't have done that. My 1st phone is my work phone and now my 2nd phone (personal) has my work Exchange information loaded in it and they are both syncing my personal phone number it seems. Maybe I should have set it up as new? How do I change that?

    If you don't transfer the backup for your other iPhone or leave it as is, you must set up and transfer everything manually after restoring your new iPhone as a new iPhone or not from the backup.

    - To transfer other music you need a third-party program like one of those discussed here:
