I have managed to get the bb and macbook to connect via bluetooth - bb says connected to pc but the macbook doesnt recognise that there is an internet connection.
i have set the APN on the bb but dont know why it doesnt recognise that the internet is connected.
As I have BB Desktop installed, i cant connect via USB and as such, require BT method to work.
Any steps i have missed out.
Thanks for the reply.
I was under the impression that it was incompatible only in USB mode, not BB mode as well.
If it's incompatible for both modes, there should be an error/warning just like there is one when I select USB.
Is there an ETA as to when the compatibility will be fixed?
Edit : I tried it on the other account where the USB method works and still couldn't get the BT method to work.
Your assumption is correct. It works side-by-side over BT, not USB. Can you answer autobot's questions below?
What error are you seeing? Do you have your Airport disabled?
I have just joined for the 1-week trial today and have had the same trouble. I have definitely paired my MacBook and BB Bold via BT correctly but get the Tether Error message "The tether service could not be found on the phone". The phone gets a similar message, "Failed to find a similar port." I'm sure I installed everything as per the the instructions. Have I missed a critical stage? Assistance would be much appreciated.
MAC BB Desktop Manager is not compatible with Tether. In order to have Tether to work, BB Desktop will need to be removed.
