What devices can I pair with on bluetooth with my Mac Pro?

When I try to pair my iphone5 or ipod touch with my Mac Pro, they pair then disconnect and I receive message on the iphone5 or ipod touch that Mac Pro is not supported.

Those devices are supported for tethering.

What new monitors are compatible with my Mac Pro 2008

My monitor Samsung Sync Master didn't turn on the next day after simple putting the computer to sleep at night. Now I am searching for a new monitor and want o make sure I find on that is compatible with my Mac Pro 2008. What do I need to pay attention to while searching?

Does the monitor work now from a reboot?
IOf yes then:
OS X: When your Mac doesn't sleep or wake - Apple Support
Apple computers: Black screen or unresponsive Mini DisplayPort display after sleep - Apple Support
Just about any modern monitor will work with your Mac

What internal hard drive can I get with 2007 Mac Pro?

Hello,
I own a Mac Pro that I purchased sometime Early 2007 and I want to add an additional internal hard drive. I am a little confused as to what my options are after visiting the Apple online store. It seems they do not have a choice for 1 TB drives for my machine. I do know that my current drive is a Seagate Barracuda 7200.10 SATA 3.0Gb/s (SATA II) 500-GB (16 MB cache buffer) Hard Drive.
I was wondering if I could add a 1 TB drive or do I need to stay with 500 GB size drive? Also, do I need to stick with 16 MB cache buffer or could I go with the 32 MB cache buffer size? If anyone has any recommendations, please let me know. Normally, I would just think I could get any drive that uses a SATA II standard.
Thank you,
Leapstepman
Hardware Overview:
Model Name: Mac Pro
Model Identifier: MacPro2,1
Processor Name: Quad-Core Intel Xeon
Processor Speed: 3 GHz
Number Of Processors: 2
Total Number Of Cores: 8
L2 Cache (per processor): 8 MB

Bus Speed: 1.33 GHz
Boot ROM Version: MP21.007F.B06

I would still steer clear of Seagate, and WD drives are doing well across the board - Mac Pro and PCs.
Any SATA drive today is fine. SSD, 10K VelociRaptor, WD Green 1TB, Black Caviar... choice is yours.

Magic Trackpad is not pairing with my Mac Pro

Hello.
I just got a new Mac. It worked with the trackpad for a while, but then I picked up the trackpad and I was holding down the side button without knowing it. It lost connection with the Mac and now I cannot re-connect it.
I have no idea if it is turned on or off.
Also, when I go to Bluetooth and delete and re-add it as a device, the Mac can see it (which means that it is on), but it fails to pair every time. I've tried this 5 or 6 times.
I rebooted the Mac, and I even deleted the com.apple.Bluetooth.plist file and started from scratch. It still sees the device but refuses to pair.
Help!!

Try these in this order to see if one of them fixes your problems: (1) SMC reset, (2) PRAM reset, and (3) reset BT to factory settings. Re-pair after doing these of course.

What best software to order with my Mac pro 6 core to use it for rendering

Hello everyone,
we're migrating our equipment from PC to Mac, I ordered a new Mac pro 6core.... and the supplier asked me for what software to include in it. Well I'm using this computer for rendering so its obvious I will ask for FInal Cut x, but is there's anything that I should ask for other than it, I just need a list of essential softwares to ask for, hope someone can help me here and one tiny detail, I have a microsoft wireless keyboard and mouse, would they function normally on my new mac, or I'm obliged to get a mac wireless mouse & keyboard ( i need wireless stuff cz of my office, its a bit small). Thanks in advanced.

Check out Apple Compressor. It offers a wide range of encoding and reformatting capabilities. Compressor's basic capabilities are embedded into FCPX, but the stand-alone application offers far more control. You can increase rendering speeds by setting up multiple instances of the application. Not saying it's the best compression app on the market, but for $50,, it is an excellent value.

HT201412 my new iPhone 5c does not pair with my Mac Pro via blue tooth while Mac Pro do find iPhone 5c and display paired

my new iphone 5c does not pair with Macpro while Macpro display pairing via blue tooth and also my new iphon 5c does search other smart phones while Macpro does so

The iPhone supports only a limited number of profiles and will only pair with a computer for internet sharing (tethering, hotspot if your cellular carrier plan supports that). http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3647

I have just replaced my mac mini because previous motherboard was damaged. I want to pair with my existing wireless keyboard and mouse but can only pair with thebold mac mini which will not start. Any ideas?

See title. How do I unpair a wireless keyboard and mouse when the previous paired mac mini is damaged and will not start?

You should be able to go to System Preferences -> Keyboard and System Preferences -> Mouse and discover the bluetooth devices.
Also, do you have a bluetooth icon on the top bar of your mac? Should look sort of like this:
If you can figure out which device is which (by trial and error, if nothing else), you can connect to them on this menu.

HT1843 hi my bluetooth cannot see the other bluetooth devices. When it is picked up by a different device tries to pair with it but the pairing does not occur. what can I do apart from throwing this **** thing in the bin?

It isn't supposed to pair with the MacBook. You can use WiFi to connect but not Bluetooth. You can setup a personal HotSpot on the iPhone and connect the MacBook, or setup the MacBook AirPort to create a network and attach the iPhone, and use the USB cable to connect the iPhone to the MacBook for syncing and backup purposes.
The communications are rather limited.

What devices can i download and play itunes with

My daughter inherited a very old laptop of mine, which is barely working. All she essentially wants it for is to play her itunes through. I want to buy her a new device but do not want to buy an actual laptop, as they are pretty expensive. Ideally, I'd like to spend less than $200. What devices can she play itunes through, besides her phone and ipod. Any suggestions for what I could buy in my price range. I was considering a chromebook but don't think that itunes supports that. Also, was considering a kindle...but i don't know if that's supported either.

Hi Stacy,
The requirements for running iTunes on a computer can be found here -
Apple - iTunes - Download iTunes Now
http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
For a PC those requirements are -
PC with a 1GHz Intel or AMD processor and 512MB of RAM
Windows XP Service Pack 2 or later, 32-bit editions of Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
64-bit editions of Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8 require the iTunes 64-bit installer
400MB of available disk space
Broadband Internet connection to use the iTunes Store
For a Mac -
Mac computer with an Intel Core processor
OS X version 10.6.8 or later
400MB of available disk space
Broadband Internet connection to use the iTunes Store
As a Chromebook fits neither of these using it would not be supported. iTunes is also not supported on a Kindle.
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Best,
Brett L

How can I pair with Apple TV without going to set up on Apple TV?

How can I pair with Apple TV without going to set up on Apple TV?

Sign up for what? All you need is airplay enabled on ATV, then when iPad is on the same network you double tap home button, swipe (left to right motion) and you will bring up the volume/brightness controls, along with airplay. Tap on airplay (rectangle with triangle in it) and select ATV, toggle ON mirroring.
The only way to mirror the iPad is wirelessly through ATV or by purchasing the adapter and connecting directly to your TV. Bluetooth via your Blu-Ray player won't help with this.

Why can't I get my LG CG300 phone to pair with my Mac?

I cannot get my LG CG300 phone to pair with my Mac. Both of the devices are supposed to be bluetooth equipped in such a way as to allow me to do this, though no go. My computer (in attempting to set the phone up as a new device) gets as far as recognizing my phone, getting "additional information" on it, but then the computer can get no further, saying it is unable to pair with the thing. When I try to add my computer as a new device in the phone's bluetooth menu, the phone begins searching for it, though never finds anything. Nobody seems to have reported such occurences with this model before, unless I am just the first to mention it.
Somebody please advise as soon as possible!
PowerBook G4 Mac OS X (10.4.7)

You're not alone in this situation. I also have a PowerBook G4 (1GHz, 17") and I have the exact same problem with my Nokia N80. In my case, both devices see eachother. However, they fail to get the other to ask for the pairing code. I tried with my girlfriend's new MacBook and it worked flawlessly. I suspect this is an incompatibility of some sort with PowerBook that have Bluetooth 1.1 instead of 2.0. Sorry, I've got no solution for you...

Is there a way to get around the pop up, "this device is already associated with an Apple ID. You can download past purchases on this device with just one Apple ID every 90 days. This device can be used with another Apple ID in 13 days."Someonehelp please

What exactly are you trying to do?

How many device can one sync with iPhone? I own a Mac Pro and an iMac desktop. Can I sync with both machines?

How Many devices can I sync with my iPhone? I own a Mac PRO and an iMAC. Depends on where I am, I will plug my iPhone to either of the machines. I haven't sync with either machine yet.

Please explain how one would accomplish that feat.
There's not much to explain. When a device is connected, you see the row of different categories across the top: Summary, Info, Apps, Tones, Music, Movies, TV Shows, Podcasts, Books, and Photos. For example, it is perfectly safe to sync one iOS device to the Music category on Computer A and no other computer, and the same device to Photos on Computer B and no other computer.
You might be confusing what I'm saying with one iOS device enabling sync to the Music library on multiple computers. That is a huge no-no and will result in the disaster being suggested. But I am not talking about that, I'm talking about the opposite arrangement. What I am describing preserves category exclusivity. It turns out that exclusivity at the category level, not the computer level, is what really matters.
As long as a device is synced to a given category on only one computer, it doesn't matter which computer it is or whether that computer is different than the ones synced to on other categories. The instant a given category is enabled for syncing on more than on computer, that is where the trouble starts.

Trying to do so is asking for trouble. Don't do it. Move the content you need to one machine and sync only with that machine. If you don't, you'll be back here asking how to fix the mess and recover all the stuff you lost...
I will agree that it is something you should only do mindfully. But if you do make sure each category is syncing to only one device, there will be no data loss and no mess.
