When I bought a Bluetooth Keyboard for my PC, it also came with software that allowed me to read and write SMS messages and send them via my mobile. is there something which would do the same job on a Mac? I've searched the internet, but not having much luck.



Thanks

    You can use the Address Book app for writing SMS messages.



    - Connect your phone to address book (by clicking on the Bluetooth button on the left upper side of the window).



    - Click on the phone number,



    - And select "SMS Message".



    As far as for Reading messages, I have no idea. Perhaps someone else could help you with that.

    Thanks for that tip. Is there anything that can't be done on a Mac? I just keep learning about new features, then showing them to people at work who then ask "Why doesn't Windows do that?"

    There are also several Dashboard Widgets that do this.



    Go here and do a search for sms.

    As are virus, worms, spyware and porn games... We can't have it all I guess.

    I've just downloaded and tried BluePhone Elite, and it's very impressive. Exactly the sort of thing (and more) i was looking for. Many thanks for that

    We dont't have spyware - so why have professional tools for people who need them and want to use the platform?
