IPhone :: Mac / Windows OSX Compatibility
Aug 17, 2010
I just got the new iPhone. I'm still using Tiger 10.4.11 on my MacBook Pro.I plugged my new phone in to the computer and it said that the phone isn't compatible with my version of OSX. I didn't think this would be a problem since my iPhone 3G works just fine with it.
I know I can buy a new version of OSX, but after spending £450 on the phone, I'm not really in a position to afford the £132 it's going to cost me to upgrade (Apple website says I need to go for the Mac Box Set, and not just Snow Leopard) at the moment.
This isn't my main question, but if I was to ask someone who already has the Mac Box Set for a copy of the disk, would it install on my Mac, or do I have to buy it myself? Sorry if that's a silly question.If I was to set up my new phone on the PC I have here, I wouldn't be able to then plug it back into my Mac, would I? All my music and contact info etc is stored on my Mac so it'll be a major hassle to have to start all over again on the PC.And also, say if I did start using this on the PC, when I do eventually get Snow Leopard, do I have to start all over again if I want to go back to using the phone with my Mac?

My new N86 8MP came with a CD with OVI Suite software ( a Help file implies version 1.1). This says it is compatible with Windows XP (SP2) or later. My own OS is Windows 2000 Pro.Is there any known software I can download that will permit info exchange and compatibility between the N86 and Microsoft's Windows 2000? Am I best to try to sell the N86 and try another phone?

My wife and I share family photos and videos with each other using iphoto and itunes to sync. Recently, she upgraded to an iphone 4s. I am still using iphone 4. Since the upgrade to 4s, I continiue to get an error ("unable to sync items. See iTunes for details") when trying to sync videos taken with her 4s with my iphone 4. Itunes doesn't provide any further detail on the error.
Info:
iPhone 4, iOS 5.1

confirm that the difficulty in pairing these two with each other is that they both have a Master BT protocol and so cannot adopt a Master - Slave relationship? setting the iPhone to a Personal Network for example. I haven't managed to find this on the iPhone 4S, just VPN, Wi-Fi or Data. Or should I just accept that they won't ever communicate via Bluetooth!?
Info:
iPhone 4S, iOS 5.1

I recently updated my iPhone 3g and am irritated with how slow it's running as I've heard a lot of people are. I've read about downgrading to the old OS but I'm beginning to consider jailbreaking it. I only have a few questions and i was hoping someone would know:
1) I'm planning on spending 6 months in SE Asia toward the end of this year. I'd like my phone to work there if possible. I'll completely admit that I've not researched this topic enough but my general question is, can I jailbreak my phone and then enable it for use in SE Asia, if so how?
2) Would jailbreaking the phone make it more difficult in some way to enable it for use there?
Unintelligible questions I know and I apologize but I have no idea with where to start for all of it.

Since upgrading my iPhone 4 to iOS 5.1.1 it no longer works with my 2009 Audi A4's AMI/MMI interface. I have replaced the cable to discount that, but it makes no difference. After a lengthy attempt to connect I am given an error on the Audi's MMI screen saying that either the cable or device are not compatible. Hard reboot doesn't fix it. It worked fine before the update.
Info:
iMac 24", 4GB, 1TB, Mac OS X (10.6.1), Additional 20" Display

I'm looking for a car kit that supports 5800 XpressMusic and 6303 Classic.Can I get the nokia 6303 classic to work with the car kit CK-600? I imagine the screen would make the use easier. If not the CK-300 should work with both phones, right?

I purchased the Sony Ericsson Xperia X10a from AT&T last month to monitor my surveillance system from the phone. The software (Meye) is for 1.6 and I can't find any more information about it. However, I want to upgrade to 2.1 for voice to text. So my questions are: 1) is 2.1 stable because I have read all kinds of horror stories about it being unstable and crashing, restarting, etc; 2) is 2.1 backwards compatible to 1.6 since I must have the surveillance software installed; and 3) what can I use to upgrade other than Sony Upgrade Service since I tried using it and it just reinstalled 1.6 again?

I have a VX4400, and someone else living here just ordered a used VX3400 that's coming without a charger. If they use the same plug, can they use the same wall charger? The VX4400 I got came with a TC98A charger, and the "official" charger for the VX3400 is supposed to be the TA-P01WR.

A problem getting wall papers to appear for selection. Pictures I take are available as wallpapers, as are some that I upload to my phone, but not all, even when they are in the same folder. Photo viewer doesn't show them either but if I use file manager to select them they display ok.What do I have to do to get these pictures I have put on my phone available as wallpapers and viewable in as photos? Do they have to be a certain size or format or in a particular directory or something else?

My problem is that suddenly (since yesterday) when I open the Ovi Maps site (http://maps.ovi.com/) I don't see the map surface anymore, I just see a white surface!!! Everything else is in place. I can zoom in and out of this white surface I can even change to 3D and the blue sky on top appears but no map. Needless to say the same goes for satelite or any other option. No map appears. If I reload the page the map appears for a second and disappears immediately. When I deactivate the ovi maps plug-in (4.0.12.12), the map reappears and stays. I even tried to unistall it and reinstall it but the same thing happens, NO map visible. When I reinstalled it, it said that the plug-in is not compatible with firefox 3.6.3. The strange thing is that I didn't updated my firefox since yesterday, it just started to happen suddenly. I couldn't find anything like that elsewhere on the web so this place is my last hope. Has anyone had a similar experience or even better a possible solution? By the way I have windows 7 but I can't imagine a reason for this being relevant since it work just fine until yesterday.

I have a unused/unregistered comes with music pin and a nokia e71.I tried to enter the pin on ovi player with little success. After a conversation with nokia support, I was finally told the E71 isn’t a comes with music phone. The pin was originally with a nokia 5800 comes with music t mob device which I have sold and posted already to the new owner. It’s been literally a week. I wanted the e71 instead of the 5800 so i got the 5800 on contract, then sold it and bought a e71.My question is.
1) If I was to get a Nokia E72 - would I be able to activate it to use with the service with this pin?
2) Is there any difference from a 5800 comes with music phone and a normal 5800?

I have a BB Curve 8530 (Verizon Wireless). On March 22nd a device software upgrade was applied 5.0.0.508. That upgrade caused some of my 3rd party apps to have issues with some functionality in particular anything to do with "virtual serial ports". A prime example is the IntelliGolf app that had been working on perfectly prior to the upgrade. Once the upgrade was applied the application on the device was no longer able to sync any information with their Desktop application as it does not recognize that there is a USB connection. I raised the issue with the other software vendor and was told that there would need to be a RIM patch to address the backward compatibility issue. The other option would be for me to revert to a previous RIM device software version. I don't know where to find an acceptable "previous version" nor do I think it's advisable for me to address this issue without direction from RIM My question is this, will there be a patch to address this issue? If so, when? If not, what should I do get my applications working again?

are there some serious compatibility issues with Blackberry and Microsoft Outlook 2007? A lot of my emails go only to my Blackberry, only to delete after a while! It is set to leave them on the server. I never even see my emails on my home computer! I don't see any posts like mine. Verizon even sent me a new phone, and it does the same thing!

I just spent most of the day getting the PC Suite (6.011.00) to work with IVT BlueSoleil. So here's how I got it to work. I wanted to use Bluetooth but my laptop doesn't have BT so I got the BlueSoleil USB dongle. Basically, Windows failed to install the BlueSoleil device properly yesterday so I ran the BlueSoleil setup.exe. Big Mistake. PC Suite couldn't see Bluetooth at all.
But the BlueSoleil app could do file transfer etc. So the bluetooth pairing/connection etc. was working for BlueSoleil's app but the Sony Ericsson PC Suite couldn't access it at all. Sony Ericsson support were totally useless - they refused to provide any troubleshooting at all for the problem because they don't make the BT dongle. And they wouldn't even recommend a BT dongle that they know to work. Anyway, after much cursing and rebooting, here's what worked:Don't run BlueSoleil's setup.exe!
I uninstalled the IVT BlueSoleil software and uninstalled the BT Radios from the Device Manager. I then rebooted and plugged the dongle in. Windows attempted an install and most of it succeeded but a couple of bits (BT peripheral or something failed). Then the Windows Control Panel / Bluetooth Devices could see my C510. Then running PC Suite allowed it to see BT and go right through to connect to the phone, etc. Hope that might save someone a few hours.
