Why won't an MP3 file on my Mac play on the boombox?

Hello, I tried to pair the Sony Bluetooth Boombox Model #ZSBTG900 with a new Macbook Pro (for the first time) with the boombox close to the computer & Bluetooth turned on. The proper words appear on the boom box display and the necessary blue light is on. Running OS 10.9.4, in Bluetooth Preferences the boombox model # appears as a Bluetooth device and is connected. When I "Send File to Device..." using Bluetooth File Exchange v.4.2.6 (4.2.6f1), the MP3 file on my Mac doesn't play on the boombox. Sony told me that the bluetooth version of the boombox is 3.0 and it will connect only to a device having the same bluetooth profile.
The Sony specs in the Operating Instructions say: The audio formats supported by this unit are as follows: MP3: file extension “.mp3”; WMA: file extension “.wma”. Compatibility requirements for the devices are as follows. Before using with this unit, check that your device meets the requirements. Devices must conform to BLUETOOTH Standard version 3.0.Devices must support A2DP (Advanced Audio Distribution Profile) and AVRCP (Audio/Video Remote Control Profile). NFC capability (required only when using the NFC pairing function of the unit).
Can anyone kindly suggest how to troubleshoot this issue?
Also, could I ever play more than one music file (on the computer) at a time through the boombox? Thank you so much for any ideas.

Hi photosr4me! If it did not work after pairing, you need to contact Apple Support here for assistance on how to setup an audio system as speakers for your Macbook Pro.

Why won't my SWF file attached to html play in Safari but work fine in Firefox?

I've tested the files in dreamweaver, on all browsers, and they work fine. But when I uploaded them to my site they only work in Firefox. The crazy thing is when I check the file in file management they work just not from the main site. What am I missing?

I have a MacBook Pro bought in 2010. I had been burning Sony DVD+R's without any problem.
Then I ran out of blanks and bought a cake of Sony DVD-R's. Put one into the drive and the
macbook spit it out. Launched Toast then inserted the blank again and Toast says "You can't write
to this disk". Quit Toast and out comes the blank.
The system info for the DVD drive says it can read/write -R, -R DL. +R, +R DL, etc. Anything.
I don't know what the problem is, but it is not a failing or dirty drive. I don't think it is a problem with
the blank DVDs either. It is probably a compatibility problem between MacBook Pros and
Snow Leopard/Leopard and -R DVDs.

Why won't FireFox 4 play mp3 files that have been created since the FF update? It will play mp3 files created prior to the FF update. All of the mp3 files have been created in the same manner, as bounces from Logic Pro 9. Thank you.

Hi David,
Thank you for your detailed question. It sounds like the real issue is pdf files. Are there any antivirus/firewalls that might be blocking this specific file type? or are there any preferences in your control panel that might be blocking this?
Do you have any stored preferences for PDF files in Firefox?

Why won't some pdf-files open on tablet/phone?

I simply get the error saying: The document cannot be opened because it's not a valid pdf-document.
However I have no problems opening the file with my laptop, only my phone and tablet (Jellybean 4.2.2) won't open it.
My friends also have managed to open the file on their tablets (android/windows).
Have reinstalled and checked updates and tried other programs but none has worked for me.
I simply have no clue and would appreciate help.

Hey,
Seems like the problem was in the web browser I was using, as the file just
didn't download correctly.
Thanks for the help anyway, much appreciated.

Hey,
spent some time discussing this with some friends of mine and found out
that the document can be opened by downloading it to the computer and
transferring then to the tablet or phone. The difference is that when
downloading with tablet/phone I get a .pdf file, which only has some html
code. So I guess the problem has something to do with the encryption of the
file. Here are the 2 different files I get as attachments. After all this
might not have anything to do with adobe, but some other stuff I don't
really understand.

Why is the audio file stop playing midway through a .mp3 file in Firefox and not in the IE browser ?

I added an audio file on to my website, http://www.widescreenonlinereview.com/COMIC-REVIEWS.html. However, the mp3 file stop midway though the song, but the .mp3 file plays completely in the IE Browser.
I tried update Firefox, but I lost some major add-on, which me caused to return to my present Firefox browser, and the .mp3 file still would not play completely in the updates browser either.

Hello,
'''Try Firefox Safe Mode''' to see if the problem goes away. Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.
''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
* You can open Firefox 4.0+ in Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you open the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
* Or open the Help menu and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
''Once you get the pop-up, just select "'Start in Safe Mode"''
'''''If the issue is not present in Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one. Please follow the [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article for that.
''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before opening Firefox for normal use again.''
''When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help other users who have the same problem.''
Thank you.

Maybe its time to "return to the source". If you can arrange it, have the .mov file provided to you examined by QT 7.0X within the Apple OS. The .mov is a wrapper and it is possible that the video format(codec etc) within the wrapper is something unreadable by QT under windows OS.

It's not just Download Helper v4.8.3, it's also RealPlayer: the download display window shows .mp3 files downloading, but nothing shows in the folder when it is done downloading.

# Question
It's not just Download Helper v4.8.3, it's also RealPlayer: the download display window shows .mp3 files downloading, but nothing shows in the folder when it is done downloading.
Also in the '''Properties''' window of Windows Explorer I '''no longer have the Details tab''', so I can't update my mp3 files with Artist, Album, Genre, etc. But the details tab does show up when I access it thru Windows Explorer.
I ran the AVG rescue disc an no viruses found. Now on '''FF3.6.15''' '''RealPlayer''' shows when I right click but then '''immediately disappears and an icon appears in the System Tray''', but as soon '''as I hover my mouse over it it disappears'''.
Does anyone have any ideas or suggestions?
How can I get this fixed? I have time-sensitive mp3s that I won't have access to anymore if I don't get this resolved in a hurry. (no pressure on you, I'm the one that's stressed about this) Can you help? Thanks so much for responding to this '''inquiry.''''''bold text'''

The title of my initial post is a bit misleading. I already took a chance deleting one of the iPhones, hoping if I deleted the wrong one, I can still reauthorize it (all with the same Apple ID acct, so not subject to 90-day waiting period, right?) The iTunes database just updated itself, and it says I have 4 "devices" "in the Cloud", but 5 "computers" associated w my account. How can I find out what computers are associated? Isn't there a list I can see? I dont have a clue what computers they might be. If I use the "Deauthorize All" option, is it a pain to add them all back in. I assume I would have to log in from each computer to reauthorize each one. Would I have to be running the newest OS or version of iTunes to reauthorize? I think I have a PowerBook G4 Titanium with an older OS and iTunes. I'd like to keep that authorized, if possible.

Is this for text you've already typed? Did you select it first? If that's not it, for PSE 11 and 12 go to the far right of the tool options, click the four-lined square and choose Reset Tool. For PSE 10 and earlier go to the far left options bar, click the tiny triangle (or the tool icon for really old versions) and choose Reset Tool.

Sorry no mind readers here so you have to tell us details, context and any error messages - just stating an abstract problem that could have thousands of causes is not enough
What version of iPhoto? Of the OS? what has changed since it worked? How are you trying to open it (clicking on the icon in the Dock, double clicking on the application in the applications folder, ???)?

Why won't my apps show on my main screens? The only way I can access them is by going back to the App Store and clicking open.

Why won't my apps show on my main screens? The only way I can access them is by going back to the App Store and clicking open.

So there are no apps at all on your home screens? Try a reset. Hold the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo and then release. The phone will reboot. If you don't see anything after that, take a look at all of your home screens and folders to see if something is hidden. It that doesn't work, you can go to Settings>General>Reset>Reset Home Screen Layout.
