Trying to connect my iPhone 5s to my macbook pro
Hi there,
Im new to Mac and have just got my first macbook pro. Im trying to take advantage of the iPhone and mac feature that lets me answer and make phone calls on my macbook, and I'm having trouble connecting my iPhone and macbook together. Ive tried to connect them using bluetooth, but it comes up with an error saying that "Adrians Macbook Pro" is not compatible.
Thanks in advance.
The warranty entitles you to complimentary phone support for the first 90 days of ownership.
If you bought the product in the U.S. directly from Apple (not from a reseller), you have 14 days from the date of delivery in which to exchange or return it for a refund. In other countries, the return policy may be different. If you bought from a reseller, its return policy applies.

I'm trying to pair my iPhone 4 with my MacBook Pro and it is saying my MacBook Pro is not supported. I just bought this thing and it's telling me that it isn't supported???
Do you mean Bluetooth?
If you are trying to activate your iPhone you need to use iTunes.
There's no need to "pair" an iPhone with a Mac. Syncing, restoring, backing up, apps/ music / photos etc., is all done with iTunes. -

Hello,
When I connect my iPhone 4S to my MacBook Pro (through the USB port), the synchronization process by iTunes failed with the following message "My iPhone could not be synchronized, because the synchronization process has not started".
What does that mean?
Thanks in advance for fixing my problem.I think I remember hearing that if you quit iTunes with your device still connected, then open iTunes up again, it should work.
EDIT: Here, this might help: http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1567 -
I am trying to sync my iphone 4s with my new macbook pro and it says that i need to erase the content because i am connected to another itunes store, which i am but i dont know if i want to erase my content.... any sugustions???
"would it work if i backed up or restored my iphone on my macbook? "
No.
"The computer it is synced to is a dell"
So, copy everything from the Dell to the Mac.
Your iphone will be erased and the content replaced with the content from the new computer. You need to amke sure that everything is on the new computer.

I have two different iCloud accounts - business and personal. I can't sign into Photo Stream with my personal account because it says my business account is my primary account. They are separate but equal accounts. I have tried deleting the iCloud account from my iPhone, then my MacBook Pro and signing in again on both devices. The iPhone says that my primary account ismy personal account (which is good) but my MacBook Pro still will not sign into that account so I can use Photo Stream.
Any suggestions? This iCloud stuff is getting annoying.you have a ps cs4 license for mac and you have some way of finding your serial number.
if yes, download an install the installation file. if you already have the installation file, what is its name and file extension? (eg, if it's one file, it should be a dmg file.)
if you need the installation file,

Hi. Can I connect my iphone 4 with my macbook pro via bluetooth? Thanks
It will be great if you can connect your mobile phone to your computer right? Easy file transferring and no cable needed.
You can't, file transfer by bluetooth is not supported.

I cannot sync my iPhone 4s with iTunes (MacBook Pro OS X 10.5.8)
Whenever I attempt to connect my iPhone 4s to my MacBook Pro to sync and transfer music I receive the following error message: "The iPhone cannot be used because it requires iTunes version 11.1 or later. Go to www.itunes.com to download the latest version of iTunes."
I tried downloading latest version of iTunes but when I went to install, received error message that I needed OS X 10.6 or later. Subsequently, I just purchased OS X Snow Leopard 10.6. Once I upgrade to that OS, will I be able to software upgrade to the appropriate versions of OS X and iTunes so that I can sync my iPhone 4s with my iTunes on MacBook running OS X 10.6.?Yes.

I have tried connecting a number of devices to my MacBook Pro but I have found if I try to connect 2 or more using either usb ports or a usb hub the computer reports 'disk not ejected properly' and sometimes it will fail to recognise the device and remove it from the desktop or it stalls operation and I have to turn the computer off at the power button.
I have tried erasing the hard drive and reinstalling the operating system.
I have done various types of reset suggested by apple support.
The computer has been to an Apple dealer who has tested the hardware but found nothing due to the intermittent nature of the problem.
I have operated the computer with only the software originally installed on it present.
Could it be possible that a virus could be present on the usb devices I am trying to connect?
My computer is a MacBook Pro (13-inch, Mid 2012)
Processor 2.5 GHz Intel Core i5
Memory 4 GB 1600 MHz DDR3
Startup Disk Macintosh HD
Graphics Intel HD Graphics 4000 1024 MB
Operating System X Yosemite 10.10.1
Devices I have connected to USB ports all USB 3.0 compatible in a variety of combinations:-
7 port superspeed USB 3.0 hub (powered).
4 port Inateck USB 3.0 portable hub (not powered).
Buffalo ultra portable 500Gb USB 3.0 hard drive.
Seagate Expansion portable 500Gb USB 3.0 hard drive.
Seagate Expansion desktop 2Tb USB 3.0 hard drive (powered).
Seagate Expansion desktop 3Tb USB 3.0 hard drive (powered).
ScanDisk Cruiser Edge 16Gb USB stick.
ScanDisk Cruiser Edge 32Gb USB stick.
Hewlett Packard 16Gb USB stick. (This causes an instant crash now.)Why?
- Because when I'm editing/ rendering lots of HD video everyday, I don't want to share system resources between virtual machines... I want the entire system's resources devoted to what I'm doing.
- I don't want to spend anymore money than I have to in order to buy one of the faster virtual systems. Not to mention, I've had a bad experience with Parralels in the past and I'd rather not use one again.
- I really don't want to clutter up my system anymore than I have to for a project that's only going to take a few weeks.
- I don't mind swapping hard drives... it takes two minutes, and I have an empty ssd just sitting on the shelf.
So, back to my original question. Can I just swap the computer's drives, then install Ubuntu on the second drive and be good to go without any harm to my MacBook Pro or OSX on the other drive (which wouldn't be connected when Ubuntu is running)?
Thanks. -
Why do I lose some of my contacts when syncing my iPhone 4 with my MacBook Pro?
If I connect my iPhone 4 to my MacBook Pro using the lead a few of the contacts on my phone are wiped, but not on my MacBook. Text messages etc are still on there but it just states the number it came from not the person's name. Why does it do this? Why does it only happen to a few numbers? What do I do to stop it?!
Many thanks.i think is because when you snyc for the last time you doesnt save your informations on your computer and, for one reason your Macbook Pro dellect all the thing who was not saved.. (its happening to me and, the losted information never will be back.. i'm sorry..) :/

I get error message 42032 when trying to connect an iPhone to iTunes. Any ideas how to fix it?
Did you already try these suggestions?
Check USB connections
Related errors: 13, 14, 1600-1629, 1643-1650, 2000-2009, 4000, 4005, 4013, 4014, 4016, “invalid response,” and being prompted to restore again after a restore completes.
If there’s an issue with the USB port, cable, dock, or hub, or if the device becomes disconnected during restore, try troubleshooting the USB connection, then troubleshooting your security software.
To narrow down the issue, you can also change up your hardware:
Use another USB cable.
Plug your cable into a different USB port on your computer.
Try a different dock connector (or no dock).
Add (or remove) a USB hub between your device and computer.
Connect your computer directly to your Internet source, with no routers, hubs, or switches.
If you checked your connections and are still seeing the error message, check for hardware issues.

trying to connect my iphone 4 to my home wifi network! my android phone gives me the option of pushing the arrows button on my router and on my android phone but cannot find the "push the arrows button" option on my iphone 4. is this option available?? and if so, where is it located???
No such option on an iPhone. Just go to Settings>wifi, tap the name (SSID) of your your home network from the list, then when prompted, enter the password.
