Sharing internet: Mac OSX 10.5 and WinMobile 6 (HTC) device

Hello there,
I've recently bought an HTC Touch, running WinMobile 6.0. Right out of the box it connected seamlessly with my iMac running 10.5, and is now happily sharing the internet connection (the ethernet is shared through airport). This enables me to synchronise with Exchange without the need for active gprs or edge all the time, and i can surf using the htc.
I bought a second HTC touch for a collegue, who runs MacOSX 10.5 on a Macbook Pro. Same story, sharing internet, all settings identical. Both HTC's "connect" to the shared internet, though have no access to the internet.
The second HTC does connect to my iMac's shared internet connection.
We've tried loads of settings but can't figure out how to make the bloody thing work.
We both upgraded from OSX 10.4.x to 10.5.1, so perhaps a long lost setting is preventing the system from working properly?
Any advice and tips?

Hi s2foster2, well I am certainly willing to try to help you, just don't know if I can be much help because I am not very
familiar with Mac. I was able to help a couple of people but that was due to them being able to send me screenshots.
I understand Flash Player but where programs, add ons, ActiveX Controls, even where the Flash files are located I don't know. I do know Mac has a Library:-)
Some new information has come to light tonight however, by one of our most helpful people on the forum. This was about
the 3rd party content, etc.
I looked at your FF add ons and you have the SWF and it's correct. Do you know where the Flash files are and could you
post back all of the Flash files with version numbers? That will tell me if Flash Player is installed with the correct files.
We can have a go at this if you want. I can tell you what info I need as long as you know where to find it, because I don't.
Let me know,
thanks,
eidnolb

Mac OS X 10.5 Leopard installation system requirements
http://support.apple.com/kb/TA24950
Leopard is no longer available at the Apple Store but may be available by calling Apple Phone Sales @ 1-800-MY-APPLE (1-800-692-7753).
If you can't obtain a retail install DVD from Apple, look on eBay or Google the installer part numbers to possibly find at an on-line store. Here's what to look for:
MB427Z/A Leopard 10.5.1 install DVD
MB576Z/A Leopard 10.5.4 install DVD
MB021Z/A Leopard 10.5.6 install DVD (single user)

HT5527 If I have both Mac OSX for laptop and desktop, and iPhones/iPads with OS 5 and later, does a single purchase on one of them cover all of them?

If I have both Mac OSX for laptop and desktop, and iPhones/iPads with OS 5 and later, does a single purchase to expand iCloud on one of the devices apply to all of them?

Yes, it's icloud's storage you will be expanding. All devices logged into an account will be able to use that storage.

Mac OSX 10.9 and HP Officejet Pro 8100 Compatibility

Can we please get a driver for the HP Officejet Pro 8100 that is compatible with the Mac OSX 10.9? I bought the printer so that my roommate and I could share it to print wirelessly, but I am unable to do that without a compatible driver. Please develop one as soon as possible!
Thanks!

Hi,
The Drivers are available via Apple Software Update,
In order to configure it wirelessly you may use the HP Easy Wireless Install app.
You may find a step by step guide in the following document:

MAC OSX 10.9 and Java Web start

Hello All ,
We are facing a warning when we tried to launch the JNLP on MAC using Java 1.7_45 .
Warning message - "This Java Application will be blocked in a future Java Security update because the jar file manifest does not contain the Permissions attribute . Please contact the Publisher for
more information "
Warning is about adding permissions to application jar files but we have already done this on all the jars .
Added code base and permissions attribute in manifest file of each jar . This works fine on Windows 7 and XP with same Java version .
Example -
Permissions: all-permissions
Codebase: code base location from jnlp
Interestingly Java console does not show any warnings so i am not sure why Java is showing this message that the application will be blocked in future java releases on MAC if permissions is not added to Jar file .
Looking at all the testing it seems there is some kind of issue between Java 7 update 45 and MAC OSX 10.9
(As the same jnlp works without any warnings on other OS )
Any help will be much appreciated .
System Details
OS - MAC OSX 10.9
Java - 1.7_45
thanks
Rupesh

Cord unplugged from headphone jack causes Mac OSX to fail and shutdown.

I have a sound system running through my iMac. When I unplug the sound system, my iMac desktop turns gray & a message tells me that Mac OSX has quit. This has happened multiple times & I would like to know why.

Obviously, this should not happen. Mac OS X does make a software setting change when it senses the headphones mini-jack being removed. The System Preferences Sound pane Output tab setting gets changed to +built-in speakers+ and the speaker output volume is set to the previously set value for the +built-in speakers+ (which is stored separately from the headphones volume). It is not just a hardware speaker on/off switch like in most PCs.
So with that in mind, my first suggestion is to reset the PRAM.

Some sound parameters are stored in PRAM.

NSS3000 folder permissions for Mac OSX 10.5 and 10.6

Dear all,
I'm working under the following specs:
Cisco NSS3000
Network with Mac OSX 10.5, OSX 10.6 and Windows 7
MacOSX computers are connected through NFS and SMB
Troubleshooting:
When we copy a file or a folder from a Windows, there's no problem with permissions. We can read, write, edit and delete the files
When we are using a MAC OSX 10.5 or 1.06 and we copy or create a file or a folder, the file or folder is only available for the user who copied the file or folder. It happens with all kinds of files.
The first idea is there's a problem with permissions settings in the NSS, or maybe in our OSX computers.
Any help will be welcome.
Best regards,
Joaquim Fonoll

One more thing:
If the folder or is created on the desktop of the mac, then can be edited (just change de name). The files it contents, cannot be changed.
Again, any help will be very welcome...
Best regards

Problems sharing internet to macbook over wifi and bluetooth

I have an iPhone 5S with iOS 7.1.2 and I want to share its internet connection to a Macbook Pro (early 2011) with OS X Mavericks 10.9.4.
When I share using USB connection, it works fine, but with Wifi and Bluetooth I have some issues:
- Bluetooth: I have never been able to make this work. I can't pair the iPhone with the Macbook. The iPhone appeared in the list of bluetooth devices in my mac, and I tried to pair it; in the iPhone a dialog asked me to confirm if I wanted to pair with the mac, and I selected Yes. After a few seconds it disconnected. If I try to pair from my iPhone to the mac, I get an error message "Device not compatible".
- Wifi: this sometimes works but is very buggy. Sometimes the iPhone wifi network is not visible to my mac. Other times, when I select the wifi network in the mac, I get an error message that says it was not possible to connect. I have to turn off/on the wifi and internet sharing in the iPhone several times to make it work.
This is all very frustrating. Is there a way to fix this?

Same issue here with WiFi using latest iOS version on iPad Air and latest Macbook Pro. In my opinion, "Personal Hotspot" (or tethering) is totally broken on iOS.
WiFi tethering works once and then I need to enable/disable hotspot or enable/disable WiFi to make it work again. Bluetooth is so slow it's unusable. Even over USB I have to reset the iPad a couple times a day as the internet connection is displayed as online but just not working any more. Very disappointing. "it just works (not!)".

Which format for External HD using Mac OSX Windows Xp, and Vista?

Hi
I've had problems with using an extermal HD and am looking for some further information...
I have recently purchased a 500 g external iomega hard drive. I need it to be compatible with my mac using osx, and with pc's using both Windows XP and vista. I will routinely be needing to transfer files from all three platforms.
I had reformatted my hard drive to FAT32 on the pc using windows xp and it worked fine, then took it home and used in on my mac, and it is now no longer recognized on the pc.
The HD is under disk manager is showing that it is formatted as FAT32 but I cannot use the drive. I cannot download programs to use on the PC's to make the drive compatible but could on the mac.
What are my best options to share files reliably?
Thanks

Add NTFS write support to Mac OS instead.
MacFUSE +3G is a good start.

HT1338 i have a really old mac book with mac osx 10.6 and I cant purchase mountain lion in the app store. it says its not compatible with this computer. what can i do

I have been trying to purchase mountain lion from the app store and it doesnt let me. I keep getting mobile me in the system preferences and i want to upgrade so i can link this mac book with my icloud account and devices. How can I uograde to mountain lion?

Choose About this Mac from the Apple menu, click on More Info, and check the model identifier against the following, which are the earliest models capable of running 10.8:
iMac7,1
MacBook5,1
MacBookPro3,1
MacBookAir2,1
Macmini3,1
MacPro3,1
Xserve3,1
If your computer is incapable of running 10.8 but has at least a Core 2 Duo(not Core Duo) CPU and at least 2GB RAM, phone the online Apple Store and order a download code for Lion.

I have a mac osx 10.4 and all the new versions of fire fox are not compatible with my computer, how can upgarade so I can get to my gmail account, etc?

I can't access my email on firefox , it states that I am using an old version of firefox that is no longer compatible with gmail, however when I try to upgrade to a newer version I get a window that says that my computer is not compatible with the new version. Is there one that is??

Current Firefox versions require a Mac with an Intel processor and OS X 10.6 (Firefox 16 runs on Intel Mac OS X 10.5).
*http://www.mozilla.org/firefox/25.0/system-requirements/
For an unofficial Firefox 17.0.10 ESR compatible version that runs on a PowerPC Mac with OS X 10.4.11 or OS X 10.5.8 you can look at TenFourFox.

Using Terminal in Mac OSX to program and test java

I bought a book on java and it says I should not use a JDK like Net Beans when first learning java.
Right or wrong I would like to know how to use terminal to program and compile simple scripts.
So my question is:
How do you go about setting up the computer to use terminal to write and compile a java program? I know my Mac sees java in terminal because tells me Im running "version 1.5.0_07"
I just need a link to some info on how to get started using Terminal for my command line with java.
I think if I could get a path set up from the command line to my text file and have javac see it I would be in pretty good shape. At least for now.
If I use a text saved plain text file (.java) how do I set up a path to it using javac from the command line?
Where can I find or link to this kind of info?

Hi,
seems like you have not tried out a few things.
1. Set up the JAVA_HOME environment variable. (I assume you pretty much know it) the folder where java is installed.
2. set up the environment variable to point to the bin folder inside the java installation folder.
3. open up a console (it seems from your post you know it.), type java -version see the java version.
4. type in javac, press enter: you should get the javac options.
5. type in java, you should see the java options.
Write your programs in a text editor, save it as somename.java.
open a console, change to the directory containing the java file.
type: javac somename.java <PRESS ENTER>
you should get the compilation errors if any.
if not
type in: java somename.java
Hope this helps.
Regards,
AyusmanStep 1 and 2 are generally not needed. Mac OS X comes with Java configured up and running right out of the box.

My freind tried to get os x lion and i dont hav eit now im stuck on the mac osx utillites thing and i dont have osx lion and it wont reconize my hdd so im stuck on it

can someone help me please

Yet another example of why it's a VERY BAD IDEA to do a clean install of Lion unless you are already VERY familiar with how to tweak the Mac OS. There's a reason Apple engineers removed it as an option. To accomplish it you have to erase your disk; not for the faint hearted.
Do you have a backup? PLEASE don't tell us you did this without a robust backup.
You erased the operating machine, so your computer went to the only place it could find one, the Recovery partition. And it's minimal, so it has to download everything in small chunks to reinstall itself. So yeah, it could take 10 hours.
Here's another option. Do you still have the original disks that came with your machine? Put one in and restart from it. You can reinstall your old system much faster. Then go to the Mac App Store and your purchase history and see if you can redownload Lion (I think that still works).
And this time just do yourself a favor and install per Apple's instructions. When the machine starts into Lion, use Setup ***'t (the first thing that fires up) to migrate from your backup.

How do i expoert files from Outlook and import them into iphone? operate with Mac OSx at home and trying to convert contacts and calendars from work and carrying on iphone. txs

How do I export calendar and contact files in Outlook and import them into iphone 4. I operate Mac OS X at home and wish to carry my work information with me on my iPhone.

You do not export anything.
Instead, sync the content from Outlook to your device via iTunes.
Try reading the manual, it's included on the device or here.
