bluetooth

I've been using an Apple bluetooth keyboard with my 17" G4 Alubook for nearly 18 months. It has worked fine until now. I can't get it to pair. When I try to set it up the Alubook can find it OK. It shows up as 'phillip's keyboard' as before. The Alubook generates a passkey, but when I...

We just installed an airport card with bluetooth on the Mac Mini, and the bluetooth configuration assistant keeps coming up. It keeps asking to configure a bluetooth mouse when there is none. How do I get rid of it? Also, it is in Dutch (we changed the OS back to english, but the bluetooth...

I have a Targus Bluetooth adapter (ACB10US) that works with a PC, but on several Mac it will not recognize my RAZR. There's no software on Targus' site, and OS X shouldn't need anything special. Any ideas?

i did a sync with my Macbook Pro and Nokia 6682 and to my surprise all contacts in the phone were gone. I did this sync right after installing the latest quicktime update last night. Has anyone seen this happen. I took the phone back to Cingular and we attempted a sync with a new phone with the...

Ok I have asked the god that is Google, in god knows how many way 3 things and have been batting a big fat Zero! So I come to you all asking this one thing.

Hi, A project I am working on requires a long range (100m) Bluetooth connection to be available. My powerbook has built-in Bluetooth, but (I believe - please correct me if wrong) this has a range of 10m. If I purchase a 100m Bluetooth dongle, e.g. the Belkin model, will OS X allow me to...

I just bought some portable stereo speakers from hammacher.com which were advertised as for PC or mac. Upon arrival, the box says "for Windows XP or 2000 only". The catalog rep said the ad was a mistake and that the speakers won't work with a mac. I'm confused. Not familiar with bluetooth...

I realized this just the other day. My Bluetooth icon is dimmed out, and when I click on it, it says that "Bluetooth: Not Available". I rarely use bluetooth, and the last time I used it was last month sometime to send files to my phone. Between now and then, the only major thing I did was...

I have had nothing but headaches trying to use Bluetooth mice with PowerBooks. The symptom is that the connections are very intermittent. I could be in the middle of using my mouse and it would loose connection. Most of the time it would reconnect after a few seconds. I've tried three...

I had a random Kernel Panic this morning, and it seemed unprovoked. when i rebooted, i ran fsck twice until it was clear, and now i notice that the Bluetooth menu is 'unavalable' in the menu bar. it is no longer a present preference pane, and the Bluetooth menu in the system profiler says 'no...
