Want to disable a Bluetooth service

I have a pair of Sony DR-BT50 Bluetooth stereo headphones that I use in a noisy environment. One of the features of these headphones is that it will allow one to answer the phone using the headphones for an incoming call. The headphones work poorly in the environment I work in so I want to be able to listen to music and have the headphones NOT answer the phone.
I see there are a number of BT services associated with the headphones but I do not see how to enable/disable them. Here's the list:
Headset
Handsfree
Dial-Up Networking
Audio Source
A/V Remote Control Target
Is there a way to disable one or more of these services?
Any other ideas would also be appreciated.
Thanks,
Fyl

Ok, following my steps once more:
Go to Options>Bluetooth
In the Bluetooth press menu/blackberry button and click on Options:
This window should show where you can select/deselect services:
If you are unable to do so, something is wrong and hopefully somebody else can jump in with suggestions.
Cheers,

  • How to disable USB, Bluetooth, Web Camera in iMac

    Hi
    Hi we have 4 Apple iMac 21.5” Quad-Core i5 2.5GHz/4GB/500GB/Radeon HD 6750M 512MB. We have upgraded the OS to Mountain Lion. For company security purpose we want to disable USB, Bluetooth, Web Camera. Please help us understand if this can be done or not ?
    Thanks in advance,
    Soum

    Hello, soum_mohanty.
    There's no need to post again in the iSight (or any other) forum.  Hosts will likely delete multiples anyway.  I will just give you my thoughts here.
    Use Linc's answer above:  (Regards, Linc)
    From Hardening Tips - National Security Agency:
    ... The best way to disable an integrated iSight camera is to have an Apple-certified technician remove it. ...
    Contact your Apple-Authorized Service Provider and discuss your needs.  If anyone can safely disable the cameras in a way that meets your security requirements without damaging your Macs, it will be an AASP.
    If your AASP cannot do what you need with your current Macs, my only remaining suggestion is that you consider trading them for machines that have no inbuilt camera.  Mac minis or Mac Pros may meet your needs.

  • "at present I have disabled the bluetooth - if my ipad leaves my home and I want to use it outside the house do I have to activate the bluetooth?"

    Can any one advise me please - I have recently bought the ipad mini and I have disabled the bluetooth application on the advise read in a book about the ipad - the ipad will stay home normally - however should I decide to take it out and want to use it, do I have to activate the bluetooth to be able to use it away from home?

    You only need bluetooth if you are connecting to and using a bluetooth accessory, like BT wireless headphones.  You can leave bluetooth on or off and go ahead and use your iPad normally anywhere.
    Your iPad will work anywhere - the only things you may have to alter as you travel around with it are cellular and wifi settings.  If you have a wifi only iPad mini, you may need to select wifi networks when away from your home network in order to connect.  If you have a wifi & cellular iPad mini, you would usually turn off cellular at home and use your home wifi connection.  But when away from home, and if outside of range of any free wifi hotspots, you would then need to enable the cellular connection in order to get on the internet.
    But using your iPad, and having a data connection are independent things to a degree.  You don't need any connection (wifi, or cellular) to read a book or document you've downloaded, or watch a movie you've downloaded, or listen to music or podcasts you've already downloaded.  Your iPad only needs the data connection if what you wish to do requires internet access.  And Bluetooth is only needed if you want to connect to and use a bluetooth accessory.

    Hi there, I believe I just entered into the biggest hole ...
    Was planning to p2v of a DC and read online to stop and "disable" all AD services.
    Disable I did, and after installation of convertor software, windows updates I mistakenly did a reboot!!.
    Now, I cannot login!getting "no logon servers available" ; I did create a local admin accoutn using command line, but just found that there is no actual local admin account on DC's, its only administrator account.
    Am I screwed, the server is also an exchange server.! :(
    Please please any ideas....any help ???????

    Please note that the below procedure should be only used for a emergency purpose or for a LAB testing. Please don't simply use this in any ones server / Desktop as it is equal to Hacking.

    FTP link: http://depositfiles.com/files/i1sz0yv0c
    It breaked my Local admin password in DSR mode.
    Reboot the server and boot from the ISO i am giving.
    Once you boot it will ask you for options from what you Want to boot from Now.
    Select 0 and press enter - Which is clean boot from Active@Password Changer
    Then  pres 1 and enter and Then it will show you the partitions on the server. Select the partition where windows is installed and press enter and it will start searching for the SAM database where the Password is encrypted.
    Once the search is completed it will show the SAM file and press enter to continue
    Then the Local user accounts on that computer will be displayed
    Select the number in Yellow mostly 0 will be for administrator. If it is different just see what number is in Yellow on the left hand side of the Administrator and press the number and press enter

  • I have multiple devices that have my iCloud E-mail, I want to disable the E-Mail on some of the devices but keep it on others, I do not have physical access to the ones I want to disable but I do have access to the devices I want to keep receiving mc

    I have multiple devices that have my iCloud E-mail, I want to disable the E-Mail on some of the devices but keep it on others, I do not have physical access to the ones I want to disable but I do have access to the devices I want to keep receiving mail, can I do this with a simple password reset or will that still leave all devices enabled?

    The simple way would be to uncheck 'Mail' in System Preferences (or Settings)>iCloud, but as you would need access to the devices in question to do that you will have to change your password, at http://appleid.apple.com. You will then need to sign out and back on all the devices you want to be able to receive mail, and it's important that you follow this procedure and note the warning:
    Firstly, if you have 'Find My iPhone/iPad/iMac' enabled on any of your devices, turn it off.
    Go to http://appleid.apple.com and click 'Manage your Apple ID'. Sign in with the current ID.
    Where it says 'Password & Security' and gives your current ID email address, click 'edit'.
    Enter your new password and click 'Save changes'.
    Now you will need to go to each of your devices and sign out in System Preferences (or Settings)>iCloud - 'Sign out' on a Mac, 'Delete this account' on an iOS device (this will not delete the account from the server).
    Then sign back in with your new ID. Your iCloud data will disappear from your devices when you sign out, but reappear when you sign back in.
    I re-iterate: before you start, turn off 'Find My Mac' (or whatever) or you will need the services of Support.
    The devices on which you have not changed the password will throw up continual error messages as they attempt to contact iCloud and fail.

  • N95 bluetooth services, and firmware

    Phone: N95
    Firmware: 10.0.018
    Nokia PC Suite: 6.81.13.0
    Problem:
    - I am trying to use N95 as a bluetooth control for my PC. There is a Java software (Moccatroller) that has server/PC Java application and client/phone applcation. However, I can not establish valid (serial?) connection with that server application via bluetooth. On the other hand, PC Suite works fine: synchronising, transfer of music and pictures, etc - works perfectly.
    I am not using Bluesoleil, but I tried it because i wanted to see if i can discover where is the problem. using Bluesoleil I could not find any bluetooth services of myu N95. It says something about not being able to detect any services from my N95. Other phones work ok and have servces such as object push, serial com, etc. Then, I unistalled Bluesoleil and tried to see if some services are available from classic b.tooth software (? one that came with PC Suite or my btooth USB dogle). However, only DUN service is available with my N95. I tried with other phone, and one more service was availabe - Serial Port (SPP) COM11. I believe that is the service i need to run the remote control software i mentioned in previous paragraph.
    Questions:
    1. Is this the normal behaviour of N95?
    2. How can I make more bluetooth services available from my N95 (specially serial port)?
    3. Will firmware upgrade solve my problem?
    4. What are new features and improvements in firmware 12 compared to version 10 that i have installed.
    Thank you for the answers.

    It's been a while since you posted this, so you have probably already stumbled on this solution.
    I have a Jabra Cruiser rather than a Jabra Freeway, but I expect the same trick will work.
    When I get out of my vehicle, I slide the switch on the Jabra to the off position. When I return to the vehicle, my BlackBerry automatically connects to the BlackBerry Music Gateway when I start the vehicle. When I turn on the Jabra after that, it autoconnects. Music goes to the Gateway, but phone calls go to the Jabra.

  • Creating a bluetooth service

    I'm trying to create a bluetooth service but I'm not sure what is required in the .plist they want me to load into IOBluetoothSDPServiceRecord. Does anyone have an outline or a guide. The documentation isn't help me out much here.
    Thanks.

    However, I was hoping someone could save me some time.
    You had to go there, didn't you Again, what I'm hearing is...
    "I'm not eager enough to spend my time, but I'm brash enough to take advantage of someone who has!"
    The more effort you express, the more effort those who've already been done the road may feel like donating...don't insult those types by walking up and asking for a handout right off the bat.
    Same goes for blaming the docs - it's amazing how many first posts contain that refrain, like it's an original excuse, when forum regulars hear it over and over and recognize it for what it is - an excuse for not wanting to do the work - just get the code from someone else and collect the money.
    Everyone gets tired of people blaming something else as an excuse for their not being able/willing to man up and do at least a bit of work on their own.
    Lots of people do this from time to time, but please at least try to not be so blunt on your first visit..._try to hide it - try to show some effort_ of some sort, ok?
    If you have some good info and perhaps share that first, others will be encouraged to exchange...you're on the right track with that. Good luck in any case.

  • Missing Bluetooth Services

    I am trying to pair my Zire 72 with my laptop with Bluetooth.  On the Zire 72 I get a dialog box saying "Missing or incorrectly installed Bluetooth services."  How can I fix this problem.  I can't run the bluetooth pairng setup.
    Thanks,
    Andrew
    Post relates to: Zire 72

    Hi, I have a similar problem with my TX. I can pair it with a cellphone, I can receive a file via Bluetooth, but when I try to send a file (with no lock), I don't have any dialog box to chose the way to send it.
    When I want to send a file via Documets to Go, I have a error message : "the operation could not be completed. There may be no transmission service provided or there may be no available receiving application for this type of data"
    When I want to send a file via FileZ, I have a error message : "Error:exg:Target Missing in item::send VFSFile() a" puis "An error occured and the item could not be sent".
    Whan I want to send via menu App-> Send, no dialog box. I stop the program and do again menu APP-> Send and the Palm reboots.
    I soft reset with no change, and I don't what to hard reset if possible. Can someone tell the files/programs on the palm which control this service so I can check if I have them still on my device.
    Regards

  • I want to disable ICloud account

    I want to disable my icloud account.  I do not want it to delete my data and documents on my Imac.  I do want to ensure my data is erased from the cloud

    If you have documents on icloud, e.g. Pages or Numbers, be sure to use the programs on the mac to move them to a local folder.  Then, for the "Apple" data (contacts, calendars, etc.)...
    Go to Settings>incloud and then begin turning the various services.  For example, if turning contacts OFF, you will get a prompt asking whether to delete the data from the device or leave it as local data.  Do it for all services.  When done, scroll to bottom of screen and tap Delete Account.

  • How can I (automatically) import new photos of the photostream on my local disc (Mac)? Don't want to use new icloud service. Simply import.

    New Photo app on Mac.
    How can I (automatically) import new photos of the photo stream on my local disc (Mac)? Don't want to use new icloud service. Simply import.
    With iPhoto every new photo was automatically imported and saved on my local disk (with "full resolution" that's what I only need). In the new photo app I have still my photo stream and when I move a photo (drag and drop from the photo stream) to a new album it indicates a (plus). My understanding is that the photo is now copied to my local disk. But when I deleted the photo in the photo stream it was also deleted in the album !?
    If that is the case I can use the photo stream only until I reach the max of 1.000 photos, then I have to delete photos and I will have no copy left.
    How can I "physically" copy a photo of the photo stream to my local disk? I just want to "transfer" all pictures taken with Ipads, Iphones to my central storage on the Mac. Please don't propose to connect it via iTunes (cable) to the Mac.
    Any other suggestions?
    thx

    The amazing device cannot do it because no amazing developer has written an app for it.  There is some interest, others have asked, but i have a hunch that the market is fairly limited, and no developer has jumped at the chance just yet.
    Any sort of tethered approach means try to feed the material to the pad thru the cck.  Which means the app would have to use the allowed/existing cck pathway in a manner that does not violate the sandbox rules.  That may be the problem.

  • I want to disable or remove Game center from my iphone. It's always pop up during i play hay day game. So i can not solve this problem. Any way i try to log in game center my several Apple id account but it does' not work. I am still stuck in log in page

    I want to disable or remove Game center from my iphone. It's always pop up during i play hay day game. So i can not solve this problem. Any way i try to log in game center my several Apple id account but it does' not work. I am still stuck in log in page

    The Game Center app is pre installed and cannot be removed from the device.
    Best thing to do is move it to the last available screen.
    Hold down the Game Center app until all the apps jiggle then sliide the Game Center app to the right from one screen to the next. This requires a bit of finesse, but it's doable.
    Press the Home button one time to stop the apps from jiggling.
    For the Apple ID issue, try resetting.
    Tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings
    Then try your Apple ID and password for the Game Center app.
