I cannot get my iPhone to connect with bluetooth to my Sony sound bar.  I have tried everything.  It searches and says underneath in the gray "Now Discoverable".   Suggestions?  It is the Sony 4-452-002-14 sound bar.

We just installed our soundbar and cannot connect our iphones with bluetooth.  My friend has the same iphone (5S) and works fine.
He does have a different carrier (ATT) I have Verizon.  I would not think that would matter.  His iphone connection was immediate.  We did repower the speaker and that did not work.  My phone is searching for a signal and below that in the gray it says (now discoverable)  THe powerbar is the Sony 4-452-002-14.  Suggestions? 

Hello, OhBuckeye. 
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
Sometimes the issue may simply be resolved by placing the accessory in pairing mode.  However, when experiencing issues with Bluetooth connections, here are a couple articles I would recommend going through.

    How do I get my iphone to connect with my PC via WiFi?

    I Believe you are trying to use personal hotspot so you can use your 3G/LTE on your pc.
    If that's the question, you'll need to turn on "Personal Hotspot" in settings (it's right below bluetooth), then go to your Mac/PC and connect to your iphone as you would with a normal wi-fi connection. You can change the random default password in the same menu where you have turned on "Personal Hotspot"

  • I cannot get my itunes to connect with my new ipad

    I cannot get my itunes to connect with my new ipad, it keeps telling me that it cannot be activated because the server cannot be reached and the my itunes tells me my network has been reset

    Just have to give it some time. The activation and verification servers are all slammed right now 'cause of all the people trying to update at the same time. Give it a couple hours (or overnight if you can wait) and it should sort itself out.

    Usually if you have some kind of hardware failure there is some beeping during POST or most motherboards now have LED indicators to produce and error message based on the type of failure
    So if its bad memory, not place properly, mismatched, processor not inserted properly, mismatched voltage or voltage connector not present etc it beeps or generates the error id.
    Power supplies can be tested for failure. There are some walk throughs for testing just them with a switch, paperclip or a jumper (I'd suggest not doing this if you are not familiar with the dangers of electricity).
    Memory can be tested with memory diagnostics programs like Memtest+
    Processors can overheat if the proper precautions have not been taken usually you will get a POST beep or error code for that.
    If the motherboard has no response then do the basics first:
    Check power connectors and power supply. Once you determine that is not the case move on to other items like graphics cards in all the way or memory.

  • I can not join the my home WIFI network. I have iPhone and iTouch connected as well as my windows laptop. I have trie power on rese, and network reset

    I can not join the my home WIFI network. I have iPhone and iTouch connected as well as my windows laptop. I have trie power on rese, and network reset. What do I do next?

    This is something else you can try.
    Go to Settings>WiFi>Your Network Name (tap the blue arrow)>Forget this Network. Reboot your iPad, hold down on the sleep button at the top for a couple of seconds until the red slider appears, slide to shut down. Then press the sleep button again until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button and the iPad will restart. Try to join your network again.

    Most of your purchases content can be downloaded again via the Purchased tabs in each of the store. I realize that this will be a problem for the iTunes Store on the iPad, but that has nothing to do with apps, since apps are in the App Store.
    If you backed up synced with iTunes before you restored the iPad, your content should be in iTunes on your Mac and you should be able to sync it back again.

  • How can I get rid of search.babylon in my address bar, I have tried everything?

    when I open firefox, in the address bar comes search.babylon.com I have tried everything to get rid of it and can't. Please help

    Unless you are a new computer user you may consider doing the above in a different order, and even avoiding the Reset Firefox step.
    # Remove Babylon related and other unwanted software
    #*see also [[Cannot uninstall an add-on]] <br/>and [[Remove a toolbar that has taken over your Firefox search or home page]]
    #Try ''SearchReset''
    #*SearchReset may not have a permanent effect unless rogue software is removed first.
    #*Also I am not certain SearchReset deals with [http://kb.mozillazine.org/User.js_file user.js] files if that was created or modified by Babylon etc
    # Consider using FirefoxReset. <br/>Reset is quick and easy, BUT be aware it removes amongst other things all of your Firefox software extensions. You may wish to at least list them and their websites before you use Reset.
    # If you are confident enough to create a new Firefox profile there may be better; none destructive methods; of sorting out such problems.

  • HT1386 I cannot get my iphone to sync with itunes

    I recently purchased a new iphone 5s, and I cannot get it to sync with my itunes. Last night I tried to sync and overnight it continued to stay on step 2, preparing to Sync and never went any further.

    For resetting the sync history on a Mac running Lion - 10.7.x if needed.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1627
    If you see the Sync menu in the menu bar, skip to step 3: 
    If you do not see the Sync menu in your menu bar, skip to step 7.
    Hold the Option key on your keyboard, then click the Sync menu in the menu bar:   
    if you see the Sync menu but you are unable to open it, skip to step 8.
    Choose Reset Sync Services.
    Click Reset Sync History.
    Test for the original issue. If the issue persists, or if you are unable to open the Sync menu, follow these steps:
    In the Finder, choose Utilities from the Go menu.
    Open Terminal.
    In the Terminal window, type or paste the following command on a single line:
    /System/Library/Frameworks/SyncServices.framework/Versions/A/Resources/resetsync .pl full
    Press Return.
    Quit Terminal after the operation has completed (when Terminal returns to the command prompt with a $).

  • I cannot get my airport to connect with my pc

    i have purchased an airport and just tried to hook it up.  I have followed everything and also set the airport about ten feet from the router and it sill won't connect -  help - thanks!
    Also, wanted to mention that I have an Apple TV connected at the other end of the house and it runs perfect.
    Also, just tested and it will pick up my iPhone just fine and play music through my stereo.

    Thanks for the clarification. I assume that you will want to simultaneously be able to access the Internet and/or stream ... and this is a common configuration for the Express to support. Basically, you would reconfigure the Express from its default mode of being a router to that of being a wireless client instead.
    AirPort Express Base Station (AX) - iTunes Setup
    Either connect to the AX's wireless network or connect directly, using an Ethernet cable, to the Ethernet port of the AX, and then using the AirPort Utility in "Manual Setup" mode, make the following changes:

  • IPhone 4S will not pair or connect to Bluetooth since IOS 7.1.2 upgrade, have done troubleshooting, on phone and with Honda Handsfree link, can no longer pair bluetooth devices with phone after un-pairing them

    iPhone 4S upgraded to IOS 7.1.2. Since then, Honda Handsfreelink would not connect, I un-paired and re-paired phone on 2 prior occasions successfully. Now I deleted system settings in car, tried to pair another BlueTooth (Plantronices M20 that had previously been paired wtih iPhone unsuccessfully. I have tried troubleshooting with Honda HFL, Verizon Tech Support, reset network settings on phone and I can no longer get the Bluetooth to pair. I was told to bring phone to VZW store. I was also told to reset phone to default settings which I do not want to do.

    How to Pair Your Plantronics M20 Bluetooth Headset, M20 Pairing Guide - Plantronics Headsets from Headsets Direct
    You have to reset the plantronics device before you can pair successfully. With my new iPhone the plantronics web site said to reset the headset and then pair.
