I have an app for Windows which connects to my mobile phone via Bluetooth and allows me to send and receive SMS text messages via Windows, via the phone. It's by SmartData (http://www.smartdata.ch) and is called "Mobile Phone Suite" or "Easy Messaging" and comes bundled with some Logitech keyboards & mice.
Is there anything like this for Mac? SmartData say they make it for Mac but I can't find it anywhere. I've tried all the obvious channels like Logitech's support/downloads section, the SmartData website, Download.com etc etc to no avail.
I have Iphone 5 (IOS 7.0.4) and MacBook Pro running OS X, Mountain Lion, Version 10.8.5. I want my iPhone SMSs to be sent and received through my computer because sometimes it is difficult to run an SMS chat with tiny keyboard of iPhone instead better doing it with my computer keyboard. I opened my computer's Messages/ Preferences/Accounts, tried a lot to configure my phone number and build the bridge to send and receive SMSs from my computer instead of iPhone, but unfortunately couldn't find the proper steps to do it.
my imail is receiving but not sending. I have 3 other computers in the office with different email address using imail and they are working fine? I deleted the account then added it and still cant send mail. its not a server issue because all other email address for our office email work just not mine.
I recieved an update from Apple today - it took for ever to install and then noticed that my mac outlook was sending e-mail ok but not receiving. When I hit synch i can see that the message at the bottom right of the screen {This Folder is uo to date} but when it changes i can see in box downloading with a bar and 0/22 which i think means 22 messages are trying to download but cant?.

Hey I just picked up the new AEBS and so far I'm liking it. I have istat menus installed and have the network activity showing and since connecting to my AEBS, I am constantly sending 0.1k/sec and receiving 0.3k/sec. Anyone happen to know why? It's happening on my laptop and iMac so I'm sure it's supposed to happen but the OCD in me has to know why lol. Seems like the AEBS keeps sending out data to my modem too because the ethernet light on my modem never stops now.
I have a mobileme account with a further 3 names added using mail only. Because of legacy I cannot move to OS Lion at the moment. Can we still use our mac.com/me.com email addresses after June without signing up to icloud. If one or more of the email only account holders update to Lion and icloud, can they transfer their emai accounts without the main account holder doing so. If we all have other apple devices ie iphone and ipads, and sign up to icloud, can we then use our mobile me mail addresses also on our OS Leopard macs.

My Mac OS X 10.6.8 Safari must have some sort of virus. It is sending messages to everyone in my address book without my knowledge. What is happening? How can I stop it?
I have some Speakers with a 3.5" end. I hopefully plan to get a MacBook Pro. FREEDOM!... 'till I want to listen to my music, is there something I can connect to my Speakers and Mac so I can listen to the Music from wherever I am (I'm thinking around my room really).
when setting up an account in apple / mac mail below are my configs: [URL]
now i need to configure 3 accounts with these details and also be able to send out email with same account. It was working before when i had the same settings on my earlier pop server as the outgoing server but now this is not allowing me 2 add the other 2 accounts for outgoing. Says same server name so stays offline.
I am running mac os X version 10.5.8 and I find that mail will download not all my mail and will not send from any of my mailboxes.
I have set up mail with my googlemail account my mobileme account and my yahoo accounts. all are set up as stp and I have set them up according to all the online help lines. I have had mail set up for many months now, and have been trying to fix this problem for a long time now off and on.
One thing that I have tried is changing the outgoing port number from the default to 587, but still no joy.
I'm a new convert to Mac, and I'm having a problem receiving all of my e-mail. I still have my PC desktop hooked up, and I am receiving messages there that I'm not receiving on my Mac. I am using Mail, version 3.3 on a MacBook Pro. My ISP is Comcast. I was using Outlook Express on my PC but converted to Outlook in order to export/import all of my messages, etc onto my Mac. That process seemed to work reasonably well.
Last week, when I set up my new computer, I got some messages but not others. By the time I left town for a conference, I stopped getting messages on my Mac altogether. When I got home, I saw that the messages were on my PC.
I spoke with Comcast and Mac yesterday about this problem. Comcast basically told me that they couldn't help me. With the Mac support person, I deleted my account and set it up again. That seemed to fix the problem, until later in the day when some messages were not delivered. There seems to be no pattern.
1. Yesterday, I received (on my Mac) two of the three daily messages I get from a list serv. This morning, I didn't receive the first message from the list serv. (But I did get it on my PC.)
2. Yesterday, I sent a message to someone and received a response on my Mac. I responded, but her response did not reach my Mac.
3. When signing up for these forums this morning, I received both automatic messages on my Mac.
4. Yesterday, I did not receive a response from someone that I e-mailed.
5. Yesterday, I received some messages from a google group but not others. There was no rhyme or reason to this either. I would receive one message from one person and not receive another from that same person (using the same e-mail account).
I am having no difficulty sending messages. And I believe that all of my messages are coming to my PC account. There are no messages on the server (aside from junk that Comcast filters for me), and no messages are landing in my junk folder on my Mac.
ichat seems to not be receiving my messages, when I write and hit enter I can only see the ichat bubble (attachment below), my friend can see my message but when he sends a message back I still see the same bubble, doesn't even look like he's sent a message.
All of a sudden yesterday I stopped receiving any emails. I could hear the message alert that one had come in but there was nothing in the mailbox.
I spent much time with the ISP and they say its an Apple problem. All settings appear to be correct and I can't figure out where those emails have gone. I have an iMac G4, OS 10.5.8
I am with Tiscali Broadband and although I can send emails from my computer, I cannot receive them, so have to use a separate webmail system instead. I have tried changing the codes as instructed by Tiscali but I have had no luck. can you help?
I am working on a MacBook Pro OS X and my server is Tiscali. I can send out emails but cannot receive them unless I go onto a webmail system which is annoying because I cannot retain addresses on the same system. I have asked Tiscali about this and I have changed codes and altered various settings but with no luck. They now tell me it is a Mac problem!! Can you help?
We've just taken delivery of a new Mac Pro and all is well except I cannot get Mail to receive any incoming mail. It sends allright but won't receive. I work for a charity (ex-service) which has it's own IT Department and they have given me the server settings and told me it's an exchange server. I have set Mail up according to the settings but no joy. What can I try?
Yesterday, I tried to send a message with some photos attached.Turns out the message was too large to make it through the servers.Today, I am not receiving any emails on my IMac.I do get them on the IPad and IPhone.how to clear out the IMac Mail?
Info: IMac, Mac OS X (10.7.2), 24 Inch IMac and everything else
I am regularly receiving GIF attachments from friends by email that show some nice and funny animated cartoons on my laptop and/or iPod touch email.
But when I try to forward them, either from the iPod or from the MacBook, they arrive at the destination showing a small cross instead of the animated cartoons?
Same thing happens when I try to forward a mail that I receive as an HTML page. It will only forward as a text page full of unreadable scripts?
Could someone please tell me if I am missing something in my System to allow me to forward those mails exactly as I receive them?
Pardon the screen name, new convert with mail issues. I cannot get my POP3 email to receive through Apple's mail client. Settings are correct and I can send a-ok; just not receive. And to make matters more screwy for me, I can get Entourage to work ok; just prefer Mail.
Only recently, Mail.app has had delays in receiving mail. I have it set to check for new mail every minute, yet somehow my iPhone gets mail before my Macs do, including my brand new iMac.
I'm brand new to the Mac world, so please excuse me if I'm missing something simple or if I don't give all the necessary information.
I'm using a MacBook Pro and running Mac OS X 10.5.6
I set up macmail and used it successfully for 2-3 days. All of a sudden I stopped receiving some of my emails. I didn't realize it for 2 days, since I was still receiving some emails. My husband mentioned sending me one I hadn't received, which is when I realized the problem. I checked my old machine which is still running Windows and Outlook and the messages were all there. I've looked through some forums, but can't find anyone with the same situation. It seems everyone is either receiving all or none.
I can't find a commonality between the messages I'm not receiving. I've tried Connection Doctor which reports everything is normal.
