IPhone :: Pairing Macbook To IPhone 4 Via Bluetooth
Jul 16, 2010
I tired pairing my iPhone 4 to my Macbook, and while the two devices discover each other and once paired my MB can see my iPhone, but my phone cannot seem to connect to my MB.
I friend of mine just bought an iPhone 4S unlocked. He doens't have an internet plan yet, so I decided to pair my iPhone 3GS via bluetooth to share my internet connection. But to our surprise, neither of our iPhones could "find" each other. How can that be? I shared my iPhone connection with my Macbook, Mac mini and iPod touch by bluetooth pairing and it always worked.
Have an iPhone 5 with IOS 7.1.2 and MBA with IOS 10.9.4I can not pair them via BTWhen the MBA finds the iPhone it sends the numeric code which is received OK by the iPhone.When I accept it the iPhone is listed as Connected in the BT menu of the MBA. For a couple a seconds.It then shows as not connected. In the phone the MBA is listed as NOT CONNECTED, of course.When I touch the MBA in the list of devices of the Bluetooth screen in the iPhone a pop-up tells me the MBA is not compatible. I have tried with airplane mode, turning BT off and on, and several combinations thereof with no result.
I have an iPhone 3GS running OS4. I recently purchased a Billionton bluetooth audio receiver that is supposed to connect with the iPhone through bluetooth and has RCA line-level outputs to connect into my stereo. The idea was to be able to listen to music on my iPhone wirelessly through my home stereo.
I cannot get the iPhone to "discover" or find the bluetooth receiver. I have connected wireless headsets to my iPhone in the past and all I have had to do was put the device in pairing mode and the iPhone would automatically find it once I entered the bluetooth menu on the iPhone. I tried my wife's Blackberry and it seemed to be able to pair and connect to the receiver without problem.
The receiver is a Bluetooth v1.2 compliant, Class 1 Radio. It supports A2DP. The model of the receiver is a Billionton GMHSBTAR.
I used to pair my iPad2 with my iPhone 4S (both iOS 5.1) using Bluetooth. Not working anymore.I can pair the iPad to a BT keyboard; 2) The connection was usually started from the iPad; 3) The iPhone doesn`t always find Bluetooth devices around (the other day, a rented car BT recognized my iPhone and I was able to pair them); 3) Both the iPad and iPhone do not find my iPod touch (iOS 5.1; 64 Gb)...
I have a different problem than I've seen here, all of the BT posts seem to be about difficulty pairing or having a phone and a BT device auto-connect.
My issue is that after connection... even after making calls successfully... my phone and my car will to stop communicating. Both devices continue to indicate they are still paired... but calls do not come in through the car, nor can the calls be initiated through the car's controls. Thusly, the stereo remains on (sometimes loudly) and I miss calls when the phone rings. The connection is gone, even though both devices never reported loosing it. This happens about 30% of the time when I'm in my car more than 15 minutes or so.
I have a 4S running iOS 5.1... this is my third iPhone and my last. It is the 2nd iPhone I've used in this car... a 2011 VW CC. I've also had no issues with other BT 4.0 phones, a blackberry and a samsung.
Additionally the genious bar has replaced my phone once already, even though they couldn't find any hardware issues. Subsequently they did a complete reset on the replacement, again finding no hardware issues. It was then set up as a new phone, and not restored from a backup. Volkswagen has tested the car's BT unit against their test iPhone 4 with no issues, even after leaving it connected for the duration of a 20k service.
I just purchased a Zoom 4322 (bluetooth adaptor) for my Canon iP100 printer. My MB pro late 2011 running 10.7.4. MBP saw the printer immediately and connected. However my iphone 4s running 5.1.1 doesn't see the printer with the Zoom 4322.
My iphone 4s is not pairing with my new bluetooth headset. I turn on the bluetooth on phone- make sure all other devises are off - turn on the headset - it says it is pairing - but my phone only shows it is now discoverable - shows the headset name - but never makes the connection.
My samsung wep460 pairs and works perfectly with my Nokia 5350. But it just won't pair with iPhone, My iPhone on the other hand can recognize other devices like my laptop but doesn't find the WEP460. Is this headset incompatible with iPhone 4s? I have tried turning on/off airplane mode, siri etc. to no avail.
So I wanted to bluetooth something from my Iphone4 to my macbook pro laptop and my phone tells me that it is not compatible. How are 2 apple products that are both fairly new not compatible with each other?
my laptop (running 10.7.3) and iPhone (running version 5.5.1) don't connect properly via Bluetooth. I can pair them OK, but when I try and browse the phone from the computer, I get the message "This device does not have the necessary services". I have Bluetooth sharing turned on in System Preferences.
I have an E71 phone purchased from UAE and was working pretty well till i got the phone updated to the latest 510.21.009. The phone started giving problems thereafter.Initilly i found the phone not responding after installing whatsapp. I removed that program and the phone was fine. It restarts in between without any reason. The latest problem is that the bluetooth pairing menu is missing in the bluetooth option. It used to be a secondary tab on the right hand side of the main menu. Now its missing.
I am unable to pair my device to my new Ford vehicle SYNC bluetooth system. When I search for the pin number that SYNC sends me and I enter that number into the block the block directly under the pin number block reads "empty" so I have no way to send back to SYNC the pin they have sent me in order to pair my device to the SYNC system in my vehicle
Since I installed the latest build 2.1.A.0.435 I am unable to use my Sony headset MW600 with my X10. I tried calling myself or dialing out to locate the bluetooth button but have been unsuccessful at this moment.
I got my G3 back in February - within about a week of getting it, Lollipop came through & I never felt the need to do a factory reset since everything was working fine. But being the curious creature that I am, I've been wondering if anything would be different if I did a FDR, so last week I did one.
Tonight when I tried to pair my heart rate monitor again, instead of double-checking what password I needed to re-pair it with my phone, I guessed wrong. It's not coming up with an option to put in the password again, just asks me Yes/No if I want to retry after it fails.
Any way to get the "enter password" option again, without doing another FDR?
I just got my G4 and I'm having trouble with the Bluetooth pairing. I have a 2011 sonata and I can pair it fine but my it won't download my phone book, also when I have it dial a number it drops people. I got a Bluetooth stereo that won't pair with it keep getting a bad passkey or id number. These all worked fine with my G3 and had no trouble.
I purchased an Iogear USB Micro Adapter Model GBU421WM to try and transfer things from my computer to the phone.After updating the Bluetooth software and trying several times to pair my phone with my computer nothing would happen. It would sit with the serial number window up even after I typed the serial number in several times.I have tried making the phone see the computer and vice versa, and nothing has worked yet. Yet it does know the phone is there and the phone talks to the computer. Just pairing will not occur.So my question is: Is it even possible or am I missing something to make my phone/computer talk through Bluetooth.I have a StraightTalk Samsung R451C Phone.
I am having some trouble trying to connect my E6-00 to some devices through Bluetooth. For those devices I get messages such "no device support" and "impossible to connect" after providing the password to pair them. At this moment, the device I am trying to connect is shown at E6 list as paired, but the connection is not possible. It does not happen to all of them.I installed all updates available through Nokia Suite, but the problem was not solved.
My 2006 BMW X5 comes with a bluetooth handsfree feature. It used to pair and work with my iPhone very well. Now, I am off the iPhone and much happier with my Atrix.However, the bluetooth doesn't work too well. I can pair the phone with the car fine. However, the phone keeps constantly disconecting and connecting (like every minuto or so), which makes it unusable with the car's handsfree. I know it is not a problem with the car (it still pairs fine with the iPhone) nor with the phone (it pairs well with my bluetooth headset). It's just the combination that is bad. I've read somewhere else that BMW's are tricky and several android users are having trouble. It seems that android lacks a handsfree profile required by BMW. Anyway, is anyone having the same problem? Any ideas of what can be done? (I've already unpaired all phone from the car, repaired, removed the battery from my phone, etc, etc, etc).
Recently purchased a 6760 slide and it does not seem to retain its pair on my car bluetooth. Previously had a blackberry and this worked fine everytime I started the car. Everytime I get in the car and want to use bluetooth I have to register the 6760 phone and basically start from scratch. I thought it may have been the technology in the car kit, but friend just tried their brand new blackberry and it connects and works fine all the time. The car kit is built into the car stereo so is relatively new.
