Decktop 6.2, HotSync not see Bluetooth as Connections option, Vista 64-bit

I got a new Dell Studio XPS with Vista Home Premium 64-bit and discovered that I could not perform a USB sync with my Treo 755p (Verizon). Since bluetooth sync was recommended, I purchased an IOGear Bluetooth 2.0 USB Micro Adapter (GBU421) and allowed Windows to discover the device. When prompted by Windows to insert the disk to install the driver, I went to the IOGear website and downloaded the most recent software (WIDCOMM bluetooth software version 5.5.0.4400 released 03/11/09 for Windows XP & Vista, 32 & 64-bit). Prior to installing this software, I had done a "clean" uninstall of all Palm files as directed in these forums and did a restart of the computer. I installed the bluetooth software & configured it to be "discoverable" and did another restart. Finally, I downloaded Palm Desktop 6.2, installed it and restarted the computer again. However, HotSync Manager does not see Bluetooth as one of the Connection options. My Treo 755p does "see" the computer when configuring bluetooth. Is there any hope that I may be able to sync this computer with my 755p or am I forced to look for a different smartphone? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

bonz1973: It worked! I am so relieved & happy after so many hours of frustration. I want to thank you so much for your reference to messages #353 & #354 on "Vista 64 Hotsync solution found!" I want to share some of my experience that may help someone else. My comments are in [ ] and take off of those from edwardek.
1. Installed Palm v4.2 [I found that I did not need to do this]
2. Installed Palm v6.2
3. Installed Palm Outlook 2007 [ didn't do this part either since I use Outlook 2003]
4. Installed Bluetooth apps
5. Inserted the ... dongle in the USB port #6
[edwardek claims that he needed to use USB port #6 but my computer does not have a USB port #6. Instead it divides the many USB ports into Hubs. What' more important is that some software sets up the Bluetooth to transmit on a COM port. Mine was COM3. To see how your adapter software installed your Bluetooth devise, check the Device Manager in the Control Panel. It does list "Bluetooth Devices" where you can find the Device, right click, choose Properties, and see which USB port the Bluetooth adapter is in. However Device Manager also listed my Bluetooth under "Network adapters" and "Ports (COM & LPT)" which is important because I had to configure HotSync using Serical port COM3. I think it depends on the Bluetooth software you get.]
6. In your PC tray (at the bottom of your PC display), Right Click Hotsync Manager and select "Settings" [Yes, you need to configure your computer's HotSync method.]
7. Wait a long time (2 minutes) and the Hotsynch Manager window will be displayed. In that window click "Connection" and when the window opens click "USB" (a checkmark will then appear), then click COM (a checkmark will appear), under this you'll see a pick list drop-down menu showing all the ports. Select COM6.
[I didn't have to wait at all for HotSync to display. Yes, check both USB and Serial connections and at this point a dialog box showed the Serial connection was COM3, matching what was in Device Manager. I suspect that some software actually creates a Bluetooth option that shows up in the Connections list like the instructions from PALM specify. My software didn't set up the Bluetooth device is this way and so I was totally frustrated by not finding Bluetooth on the Connections list.]
8. Next set up your Bluetooth application and make sure it is paired with your Treo (I'm assuming everyone knows how to do this but in essence you make sure the Bluetooth application sees your Treo (your name) and that your Treo sees your PC (the PC name). [Before this step you have to configure your Treo so Bluetooth is ON and VISIBLE and you can see your computer as a Device. I had a shortcut to my Bluetooth software in the PC Tray beside the HotSync icon. Once I had the Connections set for USB and Serial in step 7 and the Treo set up to be Visible, the computer saw my Treo using the name I had given the Treo.]
9. From your Treo start the HotSynch, then on your Bluetooth application (Bluesoleil) right click on the Treo device and select connect. You should then see that the 2 devices are connected and the exchange begins. [Yes, start the HotSynch from your Treo.]
It worked for me and hope this helps you sync your Treo and your Vista 64-bit. Thanks for everyone's input and help.

I have a new time capsule (replace my old time capsule). I want to erase my old one. My computer does not see the old one anymore, how do I connect it (the old TC is not connected to modem)

I have a new time capsule (replace my old time capsule). I want to erase my old one. My computer does not see the old one anymore, how do I connect it (the old TC is not connected to modem). I want to erase it and then use it as either a second hard drive (sired/sirelesly?) or as a hard drive/bridge. So,
1. why doesn't my cmputer see the old TC
2 once i have solved that, how do I erase the old one
3. Can I use the old one as a supplemental hard drive
     a. wired?
     b. wirelessly?
4. Can I use the old one as a range extender?
I know .. a lot of questions but I would appreciate any help.
Thanks

1. Because it is either the same IP as the new one or hidden by being plugged in as a second router.
To access it, isolate one computer from the existing network and plug it directly by ethernet to a lan port of the TC. Use the erase function in the TC to remove all the content of the hard disk.
Then go to the internet tab, connection sharing and select off bridged. You can then reconnect the TC to the network.. and the computer as well. The TC will act as bridged device.. getting IP from the main router and should then appear correctly in Airport utility.
2. I covered in 1. But you just go in airport utility manual setup. disk, and you will see the erase function. You can also set it to bridge and leave the erase until you put it back in the network.. but be careful you erase the right one.
3. You can use the old TC via wired or wireless.. although I would always stick to wired connection if possible. Speed on wireless is 10x worse than wired.
Also note the reliability goes down dramatically after 2 years.. a series 1 3 years old or more is ebay fodder unless you want to repair it. Do not trust vital data to it.. when it dies you will have issues recovering it.
4. Yes, all apple routers will function as wireless extenders. when you do that the ethernet ports turn off so it becomes a purely wireless device.. strange apple decision on what you want to use your TC for.

"Your computer does not seem to be connected to the internet." when trying to sign into Lightroom Mobile

I want to connect Lightroom 5.5 with Lightroom mobile. I click on the identity plate in Lightroom and select "sign in". A window opens saying "connecting...". Eventually the message changes to "Your computer does not seem to be connected to the internet." My machine is a Windows 8.1 PC and I already tried to solve the issue by allowing LR through the firewall.

I just found a solution:
- Close Lightroom
- Rename your .lrprefs file to e.g. .lrprefs.old
- Launch LR
- Sign in
- Close LR
- Delete the newly created .lrprefs file
- Rename your previous .lrprefs file from .lrprefs.old to .lrprefs
- Launch LR again and sign in

My computer does not see my printer

Hi: I am having a problem with my HP Photosmart 4500 printer. My computer does not see it. I have a USB connected to it, have uninstalled and installed the software two time, dowloaded the latest update and nothing. Add to that, I can not connect it by WIFI. WIFI on the printer is on but again, it's no where on any of the screens. The only variable I can think of that has changed has been the router I got recently from AT&T. Everything else works with the WIFI but no computer. I'm running 10.7.5. I have read the install instructions and nothing seems to be working. The one thing I do get from the HP install disc is a message reading the printer isn't recognized but there are no updates in support. OK, what am I missing here?

Try these steps to uninstall the current software using the HP scrubber and then reinstall using the current HP driver available through Apple.
To do so, perform the following steps:
1. Go to Applications/Hewlett Packard/ and then click on “HP Uninstaller”
2. Next click “Continue”
3. Highlight the device on the left pane.
4. Press and hold control+alt+command on the keyboard simultaneously while you click on “Uninstall”.
5. After you do this, you will see a pop up that asks you if you want to uninstall all HP software. Please note, that in doing this, it will remove any other HP printers that you also have installed.
6. Click “continue” and wait for the program to finish.
7. After it completes, reboot your computer.
Once the computer is back on, do the following steps:
WARNING: This is will delete all of your printers.
1. Go into “System Preferences” and then select either “Print & Scan” or "Print & Fax".
2. Right click (or control + click) on the rectangle listing your printers and then select “Reset Printing System”.
After you have reset the printing system, let's make sure you have the most recent HP driver package installed.
You can do this two ways. First, check for any available HP Update's by clicking the Apple icon and then Software Update. If there are any updates available, they should show up here. However, if the printer is connected by USB, it will not show any available updates. The other option is downloading the drivers from Apple's website.
You can download it here: http://support.apple.com/downloads/DL907/en_US/HPPrinterDrivers2.14.dmg
Once you have downloaded the driver package and completed the installation, you will want to plug your printer back in (if you were using a USB connection). After the printer is plugged back in, go into your print settings under System Preferences > Print & Scan. To add the printer, click the plus sign. You should see your printer listed here. If not, click "Add Printer or Scanner." Click the name of your printer and then click "Use:” box. Make sure that says the name of your printer and not AirPrint. If you are using the printer wirelessly, make sure that the printer "Kind:" is set to Bonjour or Bonjour Multifunction. Click "Add" down in the bottom right hand corner.
This will add your printer back using the most recent HP print driver available through Apple. Let me know if this helps resolve your issue or not. If it doesn't, let me know I will see what else I can do.
Best of luck,
Kyle

My computer can not see my phone to put music on why what do I need to do

I'm trying to load music on my phone but my computer doe's not see my phone what do I need to do

Saving music directly to your phone is a great and easy way to have access to your music on the go. jimpick, there may be a few reasons why your phone and computer are not seeing each other. Are you using the original USB cable that came with your phone? If not, that cable may not support data transfers.
When you connect your phone and computer together, does your computer recognize that something has been plugged in to the USB port? It should attempt to install drivers/software. From your phone, please sweep your finger downward (from the status bar at the top of the screen) to display your Notifications. You should see a connection alert with the option to choose Media Device. This way your computer knows to treat your phone as a removeable hard drive.
A window should populate, providing the option to open this storage device. From there you should be able to save your music in the Music folder. Let us know if you have any additional questions. Thank you, jimpick.

HP DJ4645 scanner does not see Mac OS 10 Maverick and computer does not see scanner

HP DJ4645 scanner does not see Mac OS 10 Maverick and computer does not see scanner.
I installed drivers and software from the HP website. Printer works fine but scaner does not work over WiFi. I did not try over USB because printer and computer are not in same room.

Hi @mamedina ,
I see that you are not able to scan over the wireless network. I would like to help you resolve this issue.
Check the driver name that is installed for the printer. Make sure it shows just the printer's name.
Click the Apple menu and then click System Preferences. Click Printers & Scanners, highlight the printer name on the left side and on the right side of the screen it should show the printer's name. (Deskjet 4645)
If the full printer name isn't listed correctly, delete it and add the printer name back in from the list. Click the - sign to delete the driver and then click the + sign to add the driver, might have to click the drop down to select the printer's name to add it in.
I have provided a document to make sure the Scan to Computer is enabled. You will have to select 10.8, then Network Connection. A 'No Computer Detected' or 'Connection Error' Message Displays When Scanning for HP Officejet 4610 ...
If you are still not able to scan, then I would connect the printer to the computer by a USB cable to see if it is a network issue or the scan port might be blocked on the router. Unfortunately the printer isn't accessible in the same room, but this will rule out a software issue or a network issue. You can contact the router company to check and open these ports 9220/9500/427 on the router for scanning.
Please let me know the outcome.
Have a nice day!
Thank You.

Help! Computer still not seeing Apple TV

No matter what I do, my computer is not seeing my new Apple TV (got it used). I have a ATT Uverse modem and both my G4 (OS X 10.4.11) and the Apple TV are plugged into it. They can both connect just fine, but the computer is not seeing it when I go to preferences>Apple TV. Both iTunes and the Apple TV have the latest software and I even reset the Apple TV to factory settings and re-installed iTunes. I even went so far as to use a wireless modem plugged into one of the Ethernet ports on the back of the Uverse modem and connected both my computer and Apple TV to that modem so they are on the same network.
Is there something I am missing? No matter what I do it is not working

While I have a PC, I went through exactly the same problem you are having. No matter what I did, I could not get it to see the device. After clicking on pretty much every possible link, I found a message stating iTunes could not see Apple TV because the Bonjour service was not enabled. Only problem was ... there is nowhere to enable Bonjour + searching for this word through Apple's help had no results. It wasn't until I Googled it that I found a link to download the program (which the book never mentions by the way). The link ironically leads back to Apple's site. Once downloaded, it saw it immediately and worked fine. While a Mac is configured different, it sounds like you need the Mac version of this software.

My Dell Inspiron 1525 is USB connected to my Canon Pixma MX 392 printer, but is "not detecting".

My Dell Inspiron 1525 laptop is USB connected to my Canon Pixma MX392 multifunction printer. Though the
printer is functioning properly in all respects, a message is showing that my laptop "cannot detect" the printer.
At the same time I'm receiving a message (wizard?) "Found New Hardware - Windows Needs to Install Driver
Software for Your Universal Serial Bus (USB) Controller". My Printer folder shows my Canon is "ready",
and the Port is shown as "USB..Virtual printer port for Canon MX390 series Printer". My Device Manager
folder lists the Canon printer and fax under "Printers", and under "Universal Serial Bus (USB) Controllers"
are listed: MX390 series (1 time); Universal Serial Bus (USB) Controller (7 times); Unknown device (7 times);
USB Printing Support (2 times). I've tried unistalling and re- installing everything associated with the printer,
but get the same results. As I've stated the printer is functioning fine, but the "incessant" appearing of the
message, "Found New Hardware, etc." is extremely annoying. When I follow the "wizard's" instructions to,
"locate and install driver software (recommended)", I'm finally told to" insert the disc that came with your Universal Serial Bus (USB) Controller". I don't have any discs that came with either the printer or laptop. Is
anyone able to make any sense of this...and, hopefully, offer help in getting rid of the "Found New Hardware"
message. Many thanks!

I'm not sure the error is related to your printer.

The path to this file on my Windows 8.1 computer is:

Windows 7 will have the same sort of path. Windows XP won't.

Hello c:
Welcome to Apple discussions.
Your post was hard to follow, but, for openers, very few people should EVER use terminal commands. As you have found out, you can screw a system up badly.
So much for the lecture.
OS X requires a system administrator password when anyone tries to install software that will affect the operating system. This is an Apple security feature that keeps people from, hopefully, doing dumb things to their system.
You cannot use a "friends" disk on a system that differs from your own.
Bottom line, you need to reinstall the operating system (whatever came with the system). If it is OS X 10.5, you could do an archive and install.
There is no way that I know of to undo the damage caused by entering the arcane terminal commands.

please help me, How to connect my printer Canon pixma MP160 to my mac OS X Yosemite?

You do not need the Setup Assistant; in fact, you do not need any software on an external hard drive. I have two LaCie's; I erased the drive as soon as I plugged it in. You will need to format it anyway because most hard drives come Windows formatted. So, if you only want to use it with the Mac, highlight it in Disk Utility and choose Mac OS Extended (Journaled) as the format and the GUID Partition scheme under Options. While doing that, it will erase the drive (and get rid of the LaCie software) - once finished, your drive is ready to use for Time Machine or any other backup plans you have for it.
