Hi,
I am a content producer so I rely on my technology to make a living but do not understand all the nuances as I am not a programmer. Thank you for any assistance.
I upgraded my desktop and laptop (both) to Lion yesterday and have had bluetooth issues. The bluetooth connection to the trackpad is still there and works fine. I have none of the issues others have reported with not being able to wake up the OS with a track pad.
The problem is that my iPhone 4 will no longer connect to my desktop (it was never connected to my laptop, so the fact that it won't now is not of note) My laptop and desktop will also not connect with each other - and I used this connection to share a printer/scanner before.
The iPhone connection I was using heavily with SL because I use the Dragon Dictate for Mac wireless version. I have some carpal tunnel issues and being a writer it is a lifesaver to be able to fold clothes or clean while dictating copy to my computer.
I cannot re-establish the bluetooth connection between them and as such can't run the wireless anymore which is a very big problem for me.
Details: the desktop is 2x2.6 quad core intel xeon, OS 10.7. Laptop is 2.5G intel core 2 duo OS 10.7.
I do know how to connect the iPhone and computer(s) - this was already done before the upgrade.
Now I can connect the two (already tried "favoriting" the iPhone per the other suggestion) and pair them....but the iPhone refuses to change the status from "not Connected" to "Connected" once the pairing is made- it says my computers (both of them, doesn't matter) are "unsupported". My computer sometimes asks if my iPhone is connected to the network. It says 3G enabled but wireless is turned on and this is how it was configured before.
Also the laptop and desktop won't connect. Sometimes the laptop will recognize the desktop and once I got them to both recognize each other. But they will not connect. It just says it was unsuccessful.
I have been trying for several hours now, all different combinations of settings on the bluetooth - advanced. Nothing seems to change the "device unsupported" error on the phone. I have also rebooted multiple times - both computers and the phone itself.
Thank you for any help or advice.
