6670 and sending sms's via bluetooth

2 replies · 3,252 views · Started 19 July 2005

Hi

I'm using Apple's Address Book to send sms's with the 6670, connected via bluetooth. I've got a problem with the bluetooth connection though; it drops out after about 10 minutes, meaning I've got to keep reconnecting it to send another message (and miss out on the feature of the caller's name coming up on the computer screen). I've enquired whether other mac users have the problem with their phones - they don't - which makes me think there must be a setting on the phone which drops it out after 10 minutes of inactivity. Does anyone know how I change that?

Cheers

In the Bluetooth app on the phone, have you paired the phone and the Mac and also marked the Mac as "authorized"?

Are there any Bluetooth software or iSync updates you could apply to your Mac (to make sure you have the latest sw on it)?

Thanks for the reply. I do have the computer marked as "authorised" on the phone and all software on the mac is up to date (running Tiger 10.4.2, with recent update to isync).
