Anyone noted Bluetooth connection issues with iPhone 4s and Ford sync?

My wifes iPhone 4 with IOS 5.0.1 auto connects to Ford Sync at least 75% of the time on first attempt. My new iPhone 4S with IOS 5.0.1 takes 4-5 attempts and rarely if ever connects without multiple attempts. Any one else seeing issues with failed Bluetooth connections with iPhone 4S phones?

Look at the right panel for links to other threads concerning problems with Fords. And it's not just Fords, cars in general.  No solutions seem to be given.

  • Connectivity issue with iPhone 3GS and Time capsule 7.6.1

    I've upgraded the firmware of my Time Capsule. Now i have WiFi connectivity problems with my iPhone 3GS. My iMac and two iPads (version 1 & 2) are doing fine.
    Very strange in this situation is when I at a rare moments are able to connect my iphone to the wifi my iPad2 connection falls out. But after a minute or 2 the system disconnects my iphone and reconnect my ipad.
    For info: I'm using an iMac 27" 3.4 Intel Core i7 with Mac OS 10.7.3 - all software is updated.
    Thanks for reaction

    The iphone is very sensitive to channel selection..
    Open the airport utility manual settings.. Go to the wireless.. change its name to something simple without spaces.. TC24 would do nicely.
    Set the wireless to b/g a/n so it works with everything .. not auto.
    And set the channels manually.. 2.4ghz (which iphone uses) set channel to either 1, 6, 11.. these are the only channels that do not overlap..
    Try and see if the iphone connects..
    Set security.. WPA2 personal and put in a suitable key.. pure alphanumeric no spaces.

  • Car Bluetooth Connectivity Issue with iPhone 6

    Just got the iPhone 6 on Friday -- very exciting! But I can't get the phone to connect to my Mini Countryman's bluetooth. The phone will detect the car's bluetooth signal, and says it's connected, but calls aren't audible via the car stereo system, but rather the phone itself. And if I don't turn the bluetooth off, my car thinks I'm on a call and the radio won't work.
    It's frustrating because this feature use to work with my 5s. A friend of mine is having the same issue in his car. And I've seen others complain about this -- seems like an Apple issue. Not sure though.

    I did what ever everyone suggested, reset all setting, reset network setting, deleting from car memory.   It's works fine after you reset it and reconnect to the car with fresh new connection at first, but after I power the phone off and turn it back on, boom the problem comes back.  It's got to be a IOS 8 issue.  I did this 3 times and I am getting sick and tired of it so I am going to restore and set up as a new iPhone from Itune and wait and see how Apple is going to fix this issue.
    I have 3 cars and the Bluetooth is having the same issue on all of them, work first then no more even with the suggest tricks.  I hate my iPhone 6 now.

    Oh I forget to mention, My wife's iPhone 5 with IOS 8 have no issue at all with all 3 of the car. Only my iPhone 6.

  • Is there a fix for the connectivity problems with iPhone 5S and ISO 7.0.2?

    Is there a fix for the bluetooth connectivity problems with iPhone 5S and ISO 7.0.4?
    I am having problems connecting the BT Audio and the handsfree phone connectyion is unreliable in 2012 Mitsubishi Lancer XL.
    All worked OK with ISO 6.

    Hello CraigNicholson
    You would need to sync with iTunes to get that process to work for you. Check out the article below for more information on how to resolve that issue to get the proper token to use Push Notifications again.

  • TS1398 Has anyone had WiFi connectivity issues with their iPhone 5 after accepting the latest IOS 8.0.2?

    Has anyone had WiFi connectivity issues at home with their iPhone 5 after accepting the recent IOS 8.0.2 update?

    Yes, despite being it an iPhone5 (8.0.2) attempting to connect to an Airport Express.
    In my case the iPhone "connects" to Airport Express 2nd generation, but no Internet packages are available; Airport Utility shows the Airport Express as not connected to the Internet; but the iMac, MBP, Motorola phone, Samsung Smart TV and HP printer connect without any trouble.
    The actual issue is the DHCP :
    sometimes the iPhone gets none, and
    when an address is assigned it just doesn't work,
    even renewing the address won't work all the times,
    switching off and on the WiFi won't work all the times neither,
    going on Airplane mode, then back won't work all the times.
    Solutions attempted and failed:
    Reseting and reconfiguring Airport Express;
    Reseting iPhone;
    Switching off and on the iPhone;
    Setup the DHCP renewal for every 5 days;
    Meditation and stark visualisation;
    Other possible patch not yet attempted : setting fixed IP addresses
    All suggestions received resemble Windows' "Plug & Pray"
    I gave up after reading several notes around the WWW complaining about it.
    Last credible suggestion : wait for 8.0.3 or 8.1, whichever fixes the issue first.

  • Is anyone having problems with the Bluetooth connection between the iPhone 5s and Renault Media Nav is so is there a solution.

    IiPhone 5s Bluetooth problem with Renault media Nav very poor connection, both phone and media Nav are up to date software is there a solution

    Here we use MediaNav with iPhone4s, 5, and 5s. I use spotify to stream music, it works great. But each approx. 15s the signal drops for a moment.
    I believe there is nothing wrong with the bluetooth connection of the iPhones, as I use them with other audio systems.
    The link belows shows the following stated:
    "There is a fault with the MediaNav Bluetooth connection when streaming music."
    "Renault are aware of the fault and will not be telling any new customers"
    "It is not a priority"
    "There is no timescale for a fix"

  • Bluetooth connectivity degrading with iPhone 4

    The bluetooth connection to my iPhone 4 has become weak and unreliable over the past week. I use a Sony DR-BT 160AS stereo headset that has been very reliable up until recently. I am having the same intermittent connectivity issue with my Plantronics Voyager PRO, so it seems to indicate the problem is with the iPhone. The connection is good if I have the phone in my hand, but as soon as I try to snap it into my Otter Box belt clip, the sound breaks up, cuts out, and eventually disconnects. I tested this by cupping my hand over the phone and the same problem occurs, indicating a signal send/receive weakness. Any ideas why this would have changed? I have been able to listen to music with the phone on the belt clip since I bought this phone a year ago.

    I don't know why this is happening, but I may have found the solution. I leave my iPhone powered on almost constantly. I powered of and back on again and the bluetooth connectivity has been restored to its former strength.

  • Ios 5.0.1 + Iphone 4 bluetooth connection issue with car stereo

    My Iphone 4 will not connect with my new JVC car stereo I have spoken to JVC customer support and they say its an Apple issue that they need to fix (changed something with the bluetooth connection scripts in the latest update update, as they have done before).
    The phone finds the stereo and then tries to pair with it, however half way through the pairing process the phone losses connection with the stereo and the pairing is then deleted.
    I have deleted all the existing pairing in the phone memory and ensured that the stereo has been rebooted to ensure no conflict of previous installs would effect the process
    Does anyone know if Apple are going to fix this glitch in a new softwre update (and if so when is it being released) as at the minute i have an expensive stereo which is cant use to its full ability?

    Similar problems occured when Apple released iOS 4 last year. It was NOT fixed with an update from Apple. It was fixed by the system vendors and automakers releasing updates for their equipment. There are ongoing complaints from people with some Toyota built cars (Toyota and Lexus) with some systems as well as some BMW drivers.
    I'm willing to bet money that the head unit you have is not fully standards compliant. Unfortunately, getting JVC to admit that is going to be nearly impossible. I suspect they will just quietly issue an update sometime in the next few months. Assuming the head unit can be updated by the end user at all.  You may have to resort to an inexpensive visor mount speaker phone in the mean-time.

  • Bluetooth buggy issues with iphone 5s after ios 8 upgrade

    I am having issues with my Handsfreelink in my 2013 Honda Pilot after the ios 8 upgrade.Basically, music works the phone does not. 
    What I have tried:
    1) Hard reset
    2) deleted and re-setup all bluetooth settings on both phone and car
    I suspect this is a bug in ios8 that needs to be addressed. On a sidenote I am also unable to plug my phone into the USB port on the car, now says unsupported.

    The same thing happened to me on my 2012 Subaru Outback.  I'm not sure this will help you since you have a Honda, but I'm posting this just in case.
    I paired the audio on my car with my iPhone 6.  However, when I turned the car off and back on again, the iPhone would not pair automatically.  I had to manually connect the iPhone with the car.  Turns out there are two separate bluetooth pairings on my car: one for phone which allows up to 5 devices and one for audio which allows only one device.  So I did the second bluetooth pairing for the phone (had already done the audio), and that fixed it.  YMMV

  • Is anyone having WiFi connectivity issues with 6.02

    Is anyone else having problems with connectivity to WiFi hotspots since upgrading to 6.02. I have an iPhone 5, and ever since I upgraded, I can't connect to public hotspots without first restarting the phone. An example would be AT&T WiFi at Starbucks. All I get is an endlessly spinning gear icon unitl I restart my phone. I'm currently traveling and staying in a Sheraton with free public WiFi in the lobby, and once again, I can't get the logon page to display without restarting the phone. While the problem seems most prevelant with sites that require the opening of a web page to accept terms, it happened to me today at someones house where the only way I could successfully connect to their wireless was to restart. Until I did, the gear icon just kept spinning. Once I restarted I was able to connect successfully. This is becoming a major PITA!
    I sure hope that engineering gets this corrected in 6.1. I expect more of Apple than to say they've upgraded iOS to fix WiFi issues, only to make them worse.

    I have this same issue.  I'm hoping there is another update in the works.  I finally got the issue resolved when my new Iphone 6+ continued to crash so now I'm dealing with internet issues.  Phone resets are not helping!

  • 8.1 did not fix Bluetooth issue with iPhone 5 and car

    8.1 didn't fix my issue with Bluetooth. I can receive calls and play music thru my Mazda CX-9 but I cannot make outgoing calls. My daughter has same issue with her iPhone 5 in her car so it has to be glitch with Apple yet. Please help. I'm so totally frustrated and I'm not eligible for iPhone 6 until January.

    I found there is another contact group list as part of the Bluetooth sync menu; altering that took care of the issue.
    This is a non-issue.

  • Is anyone else having connection issues with O magazine?

    The iPad connects to everything else fine. It can surf the Internet using Safari, it can download apps from the app store, it can also download other magazines but when trying to download the "O magazine", it gives us an error that states "cannot connect to the server please try again". I have tried everything, even called tech support and no one can figure it out. Already deleted all settings and that didn't help either. Is anyone else having this issue?

    Try rebooting your router by unplugging it for 15 seconds or so, if it is WiFi connections taht aren't working.

  • Ios 7 wifi issues with iphone 5 and iphone 4s

    I downloaded and installed ios 7 on 3 iphones and an ipad on Thursday. initially after install all devices wouldn't connect to my homes wifi (but other devices in the home are connected and can access the internet with no issue)  I rebooted each device and was able to connect problem soved. WRONG  this has been an on going issue, most of the time my devices wont even see my wifi network and when they do, I still can't connect.  I have reset wifi settings, I have double checked passwords, I have rebooted the IOS devices and rebooted the router (which was likely not needed as my 2 apple tv's, windows 7 laptop, windows 8 laptop and 2 imacs all are connected with no problem as wel as my ps3, and sony smart tv. 
    So, 1) is anyone else experiencing this issue 2) have you found a way to resolve the issue 3) has anyone gotten a response from apple support i.e. is this s known issue and are they working on an update to resolve.
    I guess my gut instinct to wait a few weeks to install ios was right and I should have listened to my gut 
    Thanks, any help would be appreciated.

    I agree, Bluetooth is rubbish since 4.2 The phone won't connect properly with my carkit Parrot ck3000 evolution, when the iPhone 4 connects to the the carkit it resets the volume on the carkit to minimum volume. so every time you get in the car you have to manually set the volume!. fix this Apple and when your at it fix the wifi reception on it too its woeful! For all the mouthing Apple does on their features on the phone, it's pretty weak as a phone!
