Hi
Just wondering if anyone has had any issues with Bluetooth
functionality after the recent updates from Apple. I am having
intermittent problems "Bluetooth not available" and some system
flakiness and wondering whether it is related to the updates or
perhaps some other hardware problem with this MacBook.
Thanks
Adam
No problems here. I've just taken delivery of a nice new Sony
Ericsson W850i Walkman Phone. Bluetooth connection works flawlessly
(with all the recent updates installed). The one minor problem was
that iSync didn't have a plugin for the W850i, but I found one at
www.feisar.com (for the princely sum $3.50) so now I have everything
working. Whatever problems you''re having, I don't think it's on the
Mac side.
BTW - out of curiosity I installed the software on Windows-only CD
which came with the phone into my copy of Windows running under
Parallels. Took a little under an hour after all the starts, re-
starts and mis-starts. I have yet to get the Windows stuff to connect
to the phone properly, even through the supplied USB cable. It does
connect, but only partially: and boy, is the software ugly!
