Stream Soundcloud from Android to Mac (via Bluetooth) ???
Hello, im new to mac. Basically I have my Galaxy S4 and Id like to be able to play / stream any Music (Soundcloud) to my MacBook Pro Retina which is connected to Speakers via HDMI.
Is there any way to stream music via Bluetooth or Wifi to my mac?

Does anyone know how or if it's possible to stream my music from the iPhone to iTunes via bluetooth or wifi? Essentially I want to share the iPhone's library with iTunes (I know one can go the other way).
Here's why: I'd like to stream my music at work to my computer's speakers without taking the phone out of my pocket. I obviously don't have my home music collection on my company computer. And I figure if I place the phone on my desk to plug it in and play through iTunes, I could easily walk off without the phone. That would be bad (out of contact) and potentially sad (stolen).
It seems right now the only bluetooth connection to a computer is for the remote application.
Wait until November. Airplay/Airtunes iOS 4.2 announced for iPhone to iTunes/iTV. If you want a BT audio stream now, you can add a dongle to the PC for headset streaming.
As far as WiFi file transfer iPhone to iTunes, you can't. There's talks on it but nothing concrete. Except JB.

Transfer of photos from ipod to ipad via bluetooth, help
transfer of photos from ipod to ipad via bluetooth, help
The blluetooth isn't meant to do that. It's largely meant for headphones and keyboards.
now, if you have the camera connection kit you can attach your iPod to your iPad using that (plugging the iPod's charging cable to the USB part of the CCK) and the photos will transfer. I've done it with my Touch. -
Streaming Video From Android to Adobe Media Server
Hello All -
i am looking for the best advice on how to live stream videos from Android Phone (3.0+)to Adobe Media Server.
Thanks,hi,
yes you can do that but for that you need to write your own server side module for handling streams and storing them -
Hi there,
New to the iphone, and love it, but I would like to send a couple of files and photos to it from my previous phone via bluetooth... My previous phone was an LG KM900 and im having difficulty pairing with it... saying its not supported.,
Can someone give me a list of compatible bluetooth(able) phones, and i will do it through a third party...
Many thanks and I do hope there is a way to do this
regards
DebzThis is not a feature of the iphone or iOS.
Bluetooth is supported for stereo headsets/speakers, handsfree telephone
devices/headsets, some keyboards, some peer-to-peer apps from the app
store and internet tethering where provided by the carrier.
Other than this it will not connect to a phone/computer/device. (thanks to ckuan for the wording)
You could try emailing the files/photos from the LG and then open the emails
on the iPhone. Depending on the type of file, the iPhone should be able to at
least view the contents - editing will require an app capable of dealing with that
particular type of file. Photos should be viewable unless in proprietary format. -
Does anyone know how to transfer a contact from an iPhone 5 via bluetooth to a car stereo?
Your stereo must support PBAP(Phone Book Access Profile).

Sharing Internet with another Mac via Bluetooth
I'm trying to help my wireless-less iMac G5 get online. It sits about two inches away from a MacBook Pro on my desk, which connects to the household wireless network via the in-built AirPort card. I'm hoping I can share that AirPort connection via Bluetooth.
Both systems are running Leopard, although the G5 is running a vanilla 10.5.0 install since I can't update without an Internet connection. The MacBook Pro is up-to-date and then some.
On the MacBook Pro, under System Preferences -> Bluetooth -> Advanced, I've checked "Share my Internet connection with other Bluetooth devices." Under Sharing, I've turned on Internet Sharing from AirPort to Bluetooth PAN. I've also paired the devices together.
I'm trying to connect from the iMac G5 to the MacBook Pro with "Connect to Network" in the Bluetooth menu. However, it's grayed out. If I do the same from the gear menu in System Preferences -> Bluetooth, nothing occurs.
This seems like a pretty complicated process for a technology that's meant to make networking child's play.You're making life very complicated for yourself!
1) Bluetooth is far too slow for sharing an internet connection, unless you like accessing the internet at dial-up speeds or less.
2) As the computers are so close, just run an Ethernet or Firewire cable between the two to create a network, and share the internet connection over Ethernet or Firewire.
3) You can easily update the G5 to the latest Leopard by downloading the standalone updater on the internet connected Mac from the Apple web-site, then just copy the Update to the G5 via CD, DVD, USB Disk, Firewire Cable, Ethernet Cable, external hard disk etc... -
Why does iPhone (3gs) sound better than Macs via Bluetooth?
Why does my iPhone (3gs) sound so much better via Bluetooth on my (Jawbone) Jambox than my new Mac Mini or 3 year old MacBook Pro? Proxmity is about the same and doesn't seem to make a difference.
sound from via Bluetooth sounds muted like in a cave or can, pretty darn good from the iPhone, ideas? (in a test I did with a Braven speaker via Bluetooth = same, in that case the Macs sounded even worse!)
Thanks,
PaulIf I were you then I would have asked this question in the mac forums
as people there have a much much higher chance of owning those macs then people in the iphone forum who could own windows computer or linux computer or no computer at all -
Playbook not accepting FILES from my nokia c7 via bluetooth
I got the playbook recently.
I have nokia C7 phone having JPG files and mp3 files. I wanted to transfer files from nokia phone to playbook.
I have done the following -
1. Bluetooth of the both the devices are ON and they are paired successfully.
2. FILE sharing option on playbook is also ON
3. however, when i send any file via bluetooth to playbook, my C7 says unable to connect.
I dont understand this. All the pairing and file sharing options are set correctly.
Please provide a solution ASAP.
I can also do the internet teethering from my c7 successfully, then why it doesnt transfer files via simple bluetooth. What am i missing?At the present time there is no bluetooth file sharing on the playbook. Use a pc or Mac to put the files on an then transfer them to the playbook. At least you will have a backup of the files.

Neighbor below my office tried to 'PAIR UP' w/ my mac via BLUETOOTH
This is the deal, I live in an apartment and I have my home office in the spare room, which incidentally is directly above a teenager who's bedroom is right below my office. There are, of course many people in the building with computers etc, and there are about four wireless networks (that I can see) at any given time. What I did not consider was that my computer could be vulnerable (wirelessly) via bluetooth, mainly because I don't use it that much and certainly not on a regular basis.
I have a bluetooth mouse that I use only occasionally, preferring the hard wired version. Also, when I travel, I do have a portable BT printer (a Canon) which I practically never use at home. But, probably because of my lack of using the bluetooth technology on a regular basis, never really thought of it... except for yesterday..
I was at my desk working, and a screen popped up saying something to the effect of a certain bluetooth device, the name for the 'device' was actually the teenager's first name!.. so it was easy to know who it belonged to, requesting to 'pair up' or something like that w/ my mac. Of course I denied it, but then, and for the first time, realized that I hadn't paid ANY attention to bluetooth as an access to my computer. Which made me wonder what ELSE I didn't know about BT. So that's why I'm here posting my question & concerns.
I realize now, that I had left bluetooth 'ON' as well as it was 'discoverable'. After this event, I obviously turned the discoverable OFF and also just turned BT off altogether - until I figure out what I need to know to keep my computer safe. Which precisely is my question. What do I need to do w/ bluetooth to keep my computer secure and keep my nosey and tech-savvy neighbor out of my computer - and still be able to use other BT devices myself, if I want to??
I don't know what kind of BT device he had, nor do I know if he's tried this before. I was ignorant about the possibility, honestly. So, since I don't know, what do I need to do to keep this kid out of my computer via BT and still have the possibility of using bluetooth devices myself? I'm somewhat clueless of what's possible simply because I've used it only in limited and occasional situations.
Any particulars on this issue will be appreciated.
Best regards.While it is true that we should all be concerned about security, in your case, I'm not sure you need to be worried about your neighbor. In all likelihood, your neighbor has a Bluetooth device that he is using for his own computer and is not actively seeking to pair with yours. But, even if he is simply seeing if he can do it, you can do a few things to be a little more secure.
To be on the safe side, turn Bluetooth off when you are not using it. And, when you do use it, after initially pairing your device or devices, turn Discoverable off. After your devices have been paired, there is no need for Discoverable to be on. Finally, go to System Preferences, open Sharing, and make sure Bluetooth Sharing is not checked and that Pairing is required is checked. That should keep you safe. -

Streaming music from iPhone to Mac?
Hey guys, I'm currently using a Macbook Pro with Retina Display, the late 2013 version and also the iPhone 6, 64GB. I recently found out that I could play music from my computer but controlling it with my phone. It's called streaming music, I guess? I'm not too sure. I've been trying to figure out how to do that for the past few weeks and I've been unable to do that and I'd like to know how to do it cause I'd love to stream music from my phone but playing from my Mac.
I could really use some help with this.simple really. You get a box (that's the Apple tv), You plug it into the wall, and then into the tv set. You run setup, it finds your network, then you get out either your Macbook pro, mac pro, iPhone or whatever else has Airplay built in (it's under iTunes--I don't know if you can share all of your music or control it, but I know it's there). You find something you want to stream to the Apple tv, make sure airplay is on , you click play on it, and it shows up on the tv. It's $70. Reflector or something like that, which lets you stream from your iphone to your Mac, is around $15. XBMC should be free (I just found out that you have to jailbreak your iphone first), so there's that. Along with Reflector, there's AirServer and X-Mirage. You also have to turn mirroring on. I've also found out it works with Airport express. I think Apple designed Airplay to work with Apple tv and airport expres only, so I'd recommend going with Reflector, AirServer or X-Mirage, all of which should do the job okay

Unable to recieve contacts from pearl to bold via bluetooth please help
hello everyone. I have a BB pearl 8100 and a bold and my pearl has the option for sening all the contacts to another device via bluetooth, i have paired both phones but i do not get the option for sending contact list to device like i do with the other phones i have paired with the pearl. why do some decives recieve this option and others dont, i need to send my info via bluetooth because my usb connection is failing on thes pearl and i have almost 1000 contacts.
please help, any ideas?This is exactly my issue, even when the 'entire music library' is selected on the music tab, the gauge at the bottom (the blue showing audio) only shows 2GB.
On the top right of this tab however, it still states 8,000 songs. My iPhone 4S is in (almost) complete denial of my library. The other iPhone 4S linked to this library has no issue syncing the entire collection.
I have also tried selecting the other option where you manually check playlists, albums etc, and selected EVERYTHING manually, and still only 2 GB of my entire colletion is picked up.
My next options are backing up my entire library, deleting iTunes and all components and reinstalling, but what if this doesn't fix it? I have wasted so much time on Match so far :-( I could also make an appointment with a genius and bring laptop and iPhone 4S to the shop as a next step.
At this stage I would be happy if they refunded my Match subscription so long as I had my entire collection back on my iPhone. -
Upload contacts from e71 to lexus via bluetooth
The E71 allows you to "mark all" contacts but not to send them to another device via bluetooth. Why else you you need to "mark all"?
Sending 250 odd individual business cards doesn't appeal. Anybody have a solution?No it is a MB issue
The C class need to be at the correct level of Bluetooth to support ( or command system does )
Speak to your Dealer to understand the car's capability and compatibility
Note the iPhone is the host and the car is the client .Up to MB to provide compatibility not the other way round
