Slow Bluetooth between computers

Hi
My iMac G5 & iBook G4 have internal Apple bluetooth 1.0 modules. Transferring files between them is slow 4-5 kbps. Yet when using the computers with mobile phones the rates hover around 50 kbps.

Sounds like a question for your network administrator.
It would be really difficult, if not impossible, for any of us to explain your network performance issues without an intimate knowledge of your infrastructure.

  • Bluetooth Connection between computers

    I have a question concerning file transfers between computers. I know how to use the file sharing via the ethernet connection but is there any way to transfer files from my computer to a fellow Mac users computer via Bluetooth?? I don't always have a cable on me so that would be a great way to transfer stuff!! Thanks to anyone that can assist in this area.

    See here and here for information; if the destination machine has Mac OS X 10.5 installed, turn on Bluetooth Sharing in the Sharing pane of System Preferences.

  • How to share files between computers and TC

    What is the best way to share content/files between computers (iMac and MacBook Pro)?
    I thought about using Time Capsule for this...is this NOT wise?
    Thanks

    What is the best way to share content/files between computers (iMac and MacBook Pro)?
    The simplest way to do this would be to enable File Sharing on both Macs.
    On each Mac....
    Open System Preferences (gear icon on the dock)
    Open Sharing
    Enter a check mark next to File Sharing
    Now when you open the Finder or Macintosh HD, you will see the "other" Mac and you will be able to access files/folders, etc. on the other computer.
    I thought about using Time Capsule for this...is this NOT wise?
    The Time Capsule was designed to work with the Time Machine application to back up your Mac(s). As such, the TC will make a complete copy of each Mac on the first backup and backup any changes after that to keep a complete timeline of each Macs files. Each computer normally will only be able to access the backups for that given computer.
    While it is possible to store normal files or folders on the Time Capsule disk, this is not generally recommended as there will eventually be a struggle between Time Machine and the files on the disk as the drive begins to fill up. The other thing to keep in mind is that access to the drive for "normal" files will be quite slow.

  • Any way to sync between computers?

    I can't sync my Tungsten E2 to my Vista 64 computer.  But I can sync to my XP Pro computer (32).  Is there a way to sync between the computers?  Or to use the files on the XP on the Vista 64?
    Thanks,

    You cannot sync between computers, What can be done though, to get the data from your E2 to the Vista 64 bit PC is to sync by bluetooth. You can check in your device manager to see if the PC already has bluetooth installed. If it does just find the bluetooth port on your PC, put the E2 a couple of inches away from the PC and in hotsync manager choose to hot sync by bluetooth. If you don't have bluetooth already installed on your PC you will need to purchase a USB bluetooth dongle, install the drivers that come with it and then sync. The first time you sync it could take a little while depending on how much data you have on the device.  Hope this helps.....

  • Is it possible to share a sequence between computers and different projects?

    Is it possible to share a sequence between computers and different projects without copying the sequence, closing the project, opening the new project and pasting in the sequence. This workflow is to slow when it takes 40 minutes for Premierer Pro CC to load a 4tb project. Just this simple thing would take 80 minutes.

    Okey, I found out how to import the seaquens, it is actually possible to make that choice after you click to import seaquence. But the problem is i do not want to import the media again. I already have that media in the other projekt. And once importingit it is offline and when I want to delete it it want to remove things from the timeline defeting the purpus. Is there a way to get aroun the fact that the program wants to import the media with the timeline.
    The thing is that I want to editing on two computer. On the second computer I will edit just a few scenes that I will later bring back in to the big project that has all the material. I have been copying the material for a few scenes to another external drive and also copied the big projekt and then opened this on my laptop. Then I made all the missing material offline while the projekt found the existing material. I editid the material. Copied the projekt and opened it on my stationary editing computer and copied the timeline with the scene that I had been working on while the media was loading, then shut down the project and opend the old big projekt and pasted the timeline in to the project.
    Is there an easier way?
    It would be nice to be able to import the timeline (without importing the media) when I have the program opened. Since it takes 40 minutes for my media to load.

  • ITunes Library shared between computers?

    I have an iMac (OSX Lion) with two user accounts that are both sharing the same iTunes Library.  We now have a Macbook Air with the same user accounts.  The Macbook Air obviously does not have the same hard drive space and I therefore did not choose to migrate the library to the Air...What is the best way for each user to access the shared iTunes folder from the iMac?  I would like to do this while on the same LAN as well as remotely if possible.
    I assume that simply setting iTunes up for "Sharing" will handle the local area question, but what about while we are away from home?  I assume that iCloud with iTunes Match would be the only answer?

    Rented movies cannot be shared between computers. They can only exist on a single device at a time, and can only be moved from a computer to a player such as an iPod, iPhone or Apple TV. You cannot move a rental from one computer to another.
    And yes, actually they do say that, in the Rentals FAQ, among other places.

  • How do I drag and drop files between computers when using Home Sharing in ITunes?

    How can I drag music files between computers while using Home Sharing? An older version of ITunes had a Home Sharing icon in the column browser near the playlist so it was easy to drag and drop.

    Hello cacalenni,
    Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities. I understand that you wish to learn how to import songs using Home Sharing in the new iTunes. The following resource should assist you in doing so:

  • How do I share files between computers (mac's) on the same wireless network?

    How do I share files between computers (mac's) on the same wireless network?

    Turn on File Sharing in System Preferences - Sharing, then you should be able to see them in the other Macs' Finder sidebars (under Shared). Click on them, click Connect As, and log in with the user credentials you're sharing from.

    You might also need to turn Preview generation off for any existing Projects. Select the Project in the Projects pane and use the cog button at the top of the pane to uncheck 'Maintain Previews For Project'.

  • Home Sharing, 9.0.2 and Copying Between Computers

    I've upgraded to the new iTunes version and can no longer copy files between computers. Unfortunately, when I try to drag a file over from the library, it will not drag (previously no problem with this function).
    I've followed all of the "help" pages I could locate and searched the forums (2 hours for these processes), checked all connections and can load the library from the "other" computers. I've also noticed some function buttons are missing on the lower right hand corner as instructed in various help screens.
    Any help is greatly appreciated.

    reinstall the program because one of the dll. files didn't load. these programs are the same just an upgrade

  • The Creative Cloud application becomes inoperable continually on both my Windows 7 and 8.1 operating systems. I'm tired of re installing the application after deleting the OOBE file to get updates and syn settings between computers for Photoshop. Is this

    The Creative Cloud application becomes inoperable continually on both my Windows 7 and 8.1 operating systems. I'm tired of re installing the application after deleting the OOBE file to get updates and syn settings between computers for Photoshop. Is this an endemic problem with others? I'm using Google Chrome as my browser. Is this an issue with the problem?

    Similar problem just happened to me with the Creative Cloud Update 1.7.1.418—slightly different so I thought I'd share. I have multiple Adobe Creative Cloud programs installed on my computer, all working just fine. I updated the Cloud App to the latest version and then it shows me that I have only one program installed! All my previously installed programs (Photoshop and the like) still work but show as "install" instead of "Up to date". Initially I thought I'd have to re-install the Cloud app or recreate the OPM data base but then I noticed that some of the Cloud app preferences (Apps > Settings > App Language) were different to what I had set previously. I use English (International) language, the update had reverted the app back to English (North American). I flicked back to my previous language and bam, all my apps now show as being installed correctly.

  • Drag and drop between computers

    Can you drag and drop between computers on the same network? I am using leopard and can move files via the finder; when using screen sharing it would be good to drag and drop between screens.

    Well, the obvious question is... did you try just dragging them between screens, and what happened? My guess is that it works - but if it doesn't, there's the nifty Get Clipboard Contents/Paste Clipboard contents commands that work between screens, and they work to copy and paste files cross-computer (which is actually much more convenient than drag-n-drop, since you don't have to worry about positioning two windows juuusst right...)

  • Stored passwords not syncing between computers.

    I'm trying to use Firefox to Syncronize data between computers. It was working, but somewhere along the way it has stopped. I now have three computers, of which I'm trying to have two of them synced together. I thought that the issue was account related, so I deleted my original account & had to create a new one (with a different e-mail address - I'd like to change that back if possible). Anyhow, now it seems as if bookmarks are synced OK, but my saved passwords are not. Given that I can't tell what the status is of a sync, it is hard for me to tell where the process is.
    So, I have one computer (a Macbook) with passwords on it that I am syncing and I have another (a new Dell Laptop), that I would like to have updated.
    What do I need to do to get my passwords synchronized?
    Thank you,
    Paul

    Make sure that you are forcing syncing by pressing Sync Now in your computers and allow some time (several minutes) to have all the information sent to the server and down from the server. If this still doesn't work, follow the steps in this blogpost to create a bug:
    https://philikon.wordpress.com/2011/06/13/how-to-file-a-good-sync-bug/
    This would be really helpful. I've seen other people having issues with passwords but I'm unable to replicate it.
