Treo 650, Bluetooth, Internet access, and 10.4.6

I have a Treo 650 on Cingular's network and would like to use it to connect to the internet using the Treo as a modem via bluetooth. I called Cingular and obtained the following information:
User name: [email protected],
password: CINGULAR1,
connection string:7**#.
(BTW this information is public.)
I haven't spent a whole lot of time attempting to connect to the internet however I was able to pair the device with my computer and enter in the information that Cingular supplied. Of course they don't support this so I was unable to get a modem script which a few other providers seem to supply via their websites.
I was curious if anyone else has a similar set up and has been able to connect successfully with reasonable speeds and up time. If so can you please provide the information that was used for the set up?
Thanks a bunch!
Oh also I am aware of the latest update version 10.4.6 of Mac OS and was wondering if this update adds better support for the Treo 650?
G3, G4, G5, iMac G5, Xserve G5, XRaid, PowerBook, iBook, MacBook Pro, Mac Mini   Mac OS X (10.4.6)   Have used every Mac OS since version 8 to date.

I do this with a Treo 650 and the MBP on T-Mobile and it works fine.
I don't know about password so I can't comment. On T-Mobile you don't really need it.
For connection string I'm sure it must be wrong. Every GSM phone in the world uses something like 99*1# (or similar with 1 substitute with something else). That is what I use.
The other issue is the modem script. I've had mixed success until I used the shareware program called GPRS script generator ( http://www.macronsoft.com/pages/en/gsg.html ). It's costs to get it generate a script, but I use the one it made for T-Mobile and it's worked flawlessly with several devices including the Treo 650.

  • As a stockholder, I would like see the development of iTV with Retina display and integrating Siri control, internet access, and iTunes apps. This new product would be a large screen, thin wall mounted television, much like a oversided iPad.

    Do you think this product is possible?

    In general theory, one now has the Edit button for their posts, until someone/anyone Replies to it. I've had Edit available for weeks, as opposed to the old forum's ~ 30 mins.
    That, however, is in theory. I've posted, and immediately seen something that needed editing, only to find NO Replies, yet the Edit button is no longer available, only seconds later. Still, in that same thread, I'd have the Edit button from older posts, to which there had also been no Replies even after several days/weeks. Found one that had to be over a month old, and Edit was still there.
    Do not know the why/how of this behavior. At first, I thought that maybe there WAS a Reply, that "ate" my Edit button, but had not Refreshed on my screen. Refresh still showed no Replies, just no Edit either. In those cases, I just Reply and mention the [Edit].
    Also, it seems that the buttons get very scrambled at times, and Refresh does not always clear that up. I end up clicking where I "think" the right button should be and hope for the best. Seems that when the buttons do bunch up they can appear at random around the page, often three atop one another, and maybe one way the heck out in left-field.
    While I'm on a role, it would be nice to be able to switch between Flattened and Threaded Views on the fly. Each has a use, and having to go to Options and then come back down to the thread is a very slow process. Jive is probably incapable of this, but I can dream.

  • Why must I have Internet access and be logged into Adobe to use Photoshop Elements?

    I can not use Adobe Photoshop Elements 13 unless I have Internet access and log into an Adobe account.  Why?  This means you can't install the software on a laptop and use it while traveling unless you have 100% Internet access throughout your trip.  What a load of .......  Why is this?  I there a way around it?
    Any advice appreciated.

    Thanks Barbara.  I tested it (trust but verify ) and that is the case.  I must have been logging out, and thus deactivating, in my earlier testing.  I agree, bad choice of words or phrasing by Adobe.   Thanks again.

    It the same phone but you don't have to have data on it if you don't want since they are older phones.  We had these phones without data as I didn't think they would be good for surfing the net compared to a smart phone.  Mary

  • Treo 650 Bluetooth syncing

    I just got a new treo 650 (Telus) and I have been able to sync it to my Powerbook G4. but only by cable. I want to do it with the bluetooth.
    1) when pairing with the BT Setup Wizard I get: "There were no supported services found on your device"
    - I think this is a problem.
    2) When I click on the "bluetooth-pda-syn" in the Hotsync manager, (conection settings) I have to set some modem script settings.
    Please if anyone has any clue about this... let me know...
    Thanks a lot!
    Rob

    Typically, the required Bluetooth profiles—including SYNC—are present and enabled on a Treo 650. This document, a User Guide for Telus-provided Treo 650 smartphones, explains Bluetooth pairing beginning on page 61:
    http://www.palm.com/us/support/handbooks/treo/treo650telusUGEN.pdf
    The only synchronization information, however, refers to USB synchronization, and—by implication—seems to indicate that Telus does not allow Bluetooth synchronization to any platform, either Windows or Mac OS X.

  • MacBook does not recognize Treo 650 Bluetooth DUN!

    Hey gang-
    We got our new MacBook today. For some reason, it does not recognize the Bluetooth Dialup Networking (DUN) capability of my Palm Treo 650. I have no problem creating the trusted pair, and the MacBook and Treo discover each other no problem. But when I finish setting up the trusted pair, the Bluetooth Setup Assistant reports "There were no supported services found on your device"
    Now here's why I'm worried- In the exact same setup, my 1-year old iBook G4 recognizes and offers the choice of Bluetooth Dialup Networking from my Treo! Something is definitely different in Bluetooth support in the MacBook.
    Any got a MacBook to recognize Treo 650 DUN?
    Thanks!
    Dave

    I am having the same problem with both a brand-new Macbook and intel iMac. After going through setup identically to several other Macs around, I only get "There were no supported services found on your device." Bluetooth syncing works fine, but neither of the Intel machines will find the DUN. Powerbook G4 12in and iBook G4 12in both work fine with identical setup procedures. There is definitely something buggy here.

  • Treo 650 Bluetooth iSync

    Hi, I can iSync my Treo 650 to my Powerbook using a USB cable, but haven't been able to get this to work over Bluetooth. I have followed the instructions on the following page: http://www.palm.com/us/macintosh/wireless.html. I notice that my Bluetooth-PDA-Sync port is perpetually in use though. Any ideas?

    Take a look at these instructions from Palm about interconnecting a Bluetooth wireless Palm device - in this example, a Zire 72:
    ] http://www.palm.com/us/macintosh/wireless.html
    Once you've paired your device, this somewhat outdated page provides instructions for configuring iSync for use with a Palm device:
    ] http://www.palm.com/us/macintosh/isync.html
    Although the instructions apply to Mac OS X 10.3.9 and iSync 1.5, you can use them as a general guideline to connect your Treo under Mac OS X 10.4 and iSync 2 or later.

  • Treo 650 ( as a modem and Maxis Malaysia as a service provide ) + iBook G4

    I have sucessfully connect using dial-up networking with Maxis 3G and hotlink 2G ( Malaysia service provider )
    Below is settings for Win XP :
    The trick is to modify the advanced property settings in Bluetooth Modem (Control Panel -> Phone Modem Options)
    Select on Bluetooth Modem, click on property Button.
    Select Advaced tab, and enter this extra settings.
    AT+CGDCONT=1,"IP","unet"
    the above line is for 3G APN
    AT+CGDCONT=1,"IP","net"
    the above line is for 2G/GPRS or hotlink
    Now I can connect using DUN between my laptop and Treo 650 as modem.
    I also managed to use DUN between Treo 650 and N70 as 3G modem.
    How about using iBook G4 ?

    Under Bluetooth in System Preferences You can go ahead and put Alltelin Service provider if you want, it doesn't make any difference. Under Account name you need to put..your [email protected] as an example [email protected], then for password it is alltel all in lowercase. The telephone number to call is #777 then click apply now. You then click dial now. Now as far as your phone you need to go to bluetooth and turn dial up networking on or else it won't work. And yes you need to have the unlimited package that Alltel offers for $29.99. I am an alltel employee and know this works. If you have anymore ?'s just let me know.

  • Is it possible to be connected with a 3G modem for internet access and a WiFi router for printer sharing at the same time?

    For our only internet access we have a 3G wireless modem. I have since purchased a WiFi printer and router to connect all the comptuters to in the house. The PCs have no problem with using both the 3G connection and the WiFi signal at the same time to print, however, the MacBook Pro will not connect to the 3G network and the router, it will drop the internet access from the modem and attempt to connect via WiFi (which has no internet access). Is there a solution that is available to remedy this? I attempted to create an adhoc printer network, however, the macbooks again will not print off of this, only the PCs. And I'm getting a bit frustrated overall with this.

    The 3G wireless modem is on one of the PC's correct?
    Why don't you pass the Internet through the Ethernet port to the router via Cat5 cable, then have that transmit a Wifi signal that everything else can use, then connect the printer to the router for print sharing?
    You would have to turn off the wifi on the comptuer with the 3G modem as it's physically connected to the router and can't connect to the other machines as they are all connected to the router for sharing.
    The Mac has the ability to pass, Internet Sharing in the System Preferences.
    Do you have software for the Mac to run the 3G modem?

  • My TC has been working fine. Using WIFI my iMac, ipod touch were able to access the internet. Last night, no internet access and when I plug the router connection in my Mac all is good.

    My TC was fine, it supports a Mac and an ipod touch. I have had no issues until last night. Nominternet access, Timecapsule app cannot detect or finf the TC. I have my router cable plugged into my Mac and it's fine. I am using Leopard and have no idea what TC firmware version I am on. The TC does get hot! Any clues?

    Firmware downgrade.
    Go to the airport menu at the top of the page when you have airport utility open.
    The second screen will open over the airport utility.
    Now hold down the option key when you select firmware so not just new ones open but also old ones.
    You get a warning ..
    You proceed.
    Now you have your TC with whatever firmware you chose.
    That is about as Gumpy as I can do it.

  • New (last night) 4s.  at home everything works but at the office, I can't seem to send or receive emails.  Don't know about texts yet.  I manually connected to my company's wi-fi network, have internet access and a good signal.  The phone function works

    Just set up my 4s last night - works fine at home but can't get or send email at the office.  Wi-fi connection working and signal is good and telephone and Internet functions working.  Manually set to my company's wi-fi. 

    Your company has most likely blocked the ports necessary to connect to mail servers outside the corporate network. Shut off WiFi and see if it works. If it does, you'll need to talk to your IT department about it.
    Odds are they are not going to change the policy without a valid business reason to do so.

  • I have an issue with my 3G connection: my iphone can't connect anymore to the data network even though I have a contract with unlimited internet access and the date/3G is turned ON. Anyone knows this problem ?

    Hi guys,
    This problem showed up a few days ago. Even though I have turned on the 3G and the cellular data, my phone tells me there is actually no connection. But the network indicators shows a maximum network. I went to the genius bar and they fixed it by restoring the phone and it started working again. Then I restored it at home with my back up. Today, it started again: network issue. And the problem does not come from the network (I have tried my sim on another iphone with the same carrier). It really does come from the device.
    Any ideas ?
    Many thanks
