Bluetooth issues/Lion (different ones than the other threads)


hi,
content producer rely on technology make living not understand nuances not programmer. thank assistance.
upgraded desktop , laptop (both) lion yesterday , have had bluetooth issues. bluetooth connection trackpad still there , works fine. have none of issues others have reported not being able wake os track pad.
problem iphone 4 no longer connect desktop (it never connected laptop, fact won't not of note) laptop , desktop not connect each other - , used connection share printer/scanner before.
iphone connection using heavily sl because use dragon dictate mac wireless version. have carpal tunnel issues , being writer lifesaver able fold clothes or clean while dictating copy computer.
cannot re-establish bluetooth connection between them , such can't run wireless anymore big problem me.
details: desktop 2x2.6 quad core intel xeon, os 10.7. laptop 2.5g intel core 2 duo os 10.7.
know how connect iphone , computer(s) - done before upgrade.
can connect 2 (already tried "favoriting" iphone per other suggestion) , pair them....but iphone refuses change status "not connected" "connected" once pairing made- says computers (both of them, doesn't matter) "unsupported". computer asks if iphone connected network. says 3g enabled wireless turned on , how configured before.
laptop , desktop won't connect. laptop recognize desktop , once got them both recognize each other. not connect. says unsuccessful.
have been trying several hours now, different combinations of settings on bluetooth - advanced. nothing seems change "device unsupported" error on phone. have rebooted multiple times - both computers , phone itself.
thank or advice.
 

i figured 1/2 out - !!!

had not reenabled or re-identified bluetooth headset input device in system preferences. upgrade lion had set universal access switch "off". 2 things in system preferences - launching iphone app connects 2 (dictate microphone) made link again.

still cannot link laptop , desktop such can again share scanner/printer. ideas there great!!!

can't recommend dragon mac product enough, in case interested. dictation mode not perfect close enough, , saves hands typing , command mode better know how use it.

dragon voice powered controls iphone.

thank reading this....these forums helpful of rely on technology aren't whiz @ keeping running - esp through changes.
