Blue tooth Motorola Elite Silver IOS 6 failure

I updated IPHONE 4S with IOS 6 and now it will not recognize my Motorola Elite Silver device. I
I powered down the phone and turned it back on.
I deleated the device and tried to re pair.
The phone says connected and then not connected.
The device and phone just cycle in a loop trying to connect and the restart.
HELP!

After an hour on the phone with Apple they told me:
1. The OS can not be down graded. I am stuck with iOS 6.
2. I will have to get Motorola to upgrade their device.
After 15 mins with Motorola they said our piece still works, it is not broke so there is nothing we can do.
I contacted AT&T, explained I purchased the phone and ear piece in March and they worked. Now they don't with Apple's iOS upgrade that is permanent.
AT&T credit my account for a new blue tooth. Since the iOS 6 is new I want to see a replacement ear piece work before I purchase it.
[b]Great customer service from AT&T.[/b]

  • Motorola Elite Silver not pairing via bluetooth using ios 7

    I am not able to pair my headset to my iphone 5 ios 7.0.2.  The last time it worked was before I updated my phone to 7.0.2.  I have removed the device and started fresh and still the headset will not pair with the phone. I has anyone experience this?

    Hi All
    i am new here but came on for the same reason, iphone 5 not tethering via USB to my PC.
    After speaking to Apple tech support and being told by one of their "senior techs" that the iphone 5 is not designed to tether via USB only wifi or bluetooth I thought it best to look around on here to see if there are any suggestions.
    The problem I had was as follows (in case anyone else has the same);
    a. iphone connected to pcvia usb and pc recognised phone (itunes synced and network connections says connected).
    b. personal hotspot on and identifies "1 connection"
    c. IE and Chrome both unable to open pages as saying no internet connection.
    Seems like there are many on here with the same issue but not fix.
    I HAVE SOLVED THIS after hours and hours!
    1. Go to ..... Control Panel > Network Connections
    2. Right Click on Apple Mobile Local Area Connection (should say it is connected)
    3. Click on Properties
    4. New window comes up. Click on Advanced tab
    5. Under Internet Connection Sharing header, tick the box that says "Allow other network users to connect through this computer's Internet connection.
    6. Click the OK box at bottom of window.
    Since doing this i have been connected to the internet and finally able to open emails etc.
    I hope this helps other PC users. I should probably point out that I am by no means a computer specialist and so cannot confirm how secure this connection is so if anyone out there can advise on this and maybe of a safer way to activate the connection then please feel free to let me know.
    Thanks and good luck.

    PS. sorry if this is not relevant to Mac users, I'm not one but if it offers a start point to solution then great.

  • I updated my IPAD 2 to ios 7 and now it will not connect wirelessly or recognize my blue tooth devices

    I updated my IPAD2 to ios 7 and now it will not connect wirelessly or recognize my blue tooth devices

    Some things to try first:
    1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
    5.  Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
        •    Launch Settings app
        •    Tap on Wi-Fi
        •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
        •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

    Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.
    Some Wi-Fi losses may stem from a problematic interaction between Wi-Fi and cellular data connections. Numerous users have found that turning off Cellular Data in Settings gets their Wi-Fi working again.
    You may have many apps open which can possibly cause the slowdown and possibly the loss of wifi. In iOS 4-6 double tap your Home button & at the bottom of the screen you will see the icons of all open apps. Close those you are not using by pressing on an icon until all icons wiggle - then tap the minus sign. For iOS 7 users, there’s an easy way to see which apps are open in order to close them. By double-tapping the home button on your iPhone or iPad, the new multitasking feature in iOS 7 shows full page previews of all your open apps. Simply scroll horizontally to see all your apps, and close the apps with a simple flick towards the top of the screen.

  • Ipad 3  crash IOS 7.04 kensington keyboard blue tooth

    My Ipad 3 crashes every three or four days. Only a hard reset will wake up the ipad.
    IOS 7.04
    Kensington blue tooth keybaord
    Ipad 3

    Do you have a backup either via iCloud or on your computer via iTunes?  If so I'd recommend going in to Settings>General>Reset>Erase All Content & Settings.
    Once this has completed, setup as a new iPad and try testing the sound on it? Does it sound better?  If so, do the above steps again, but this time select Restore from backup.
    I had issues with Siri which sounded terrible and nothing like it did on my iPhone when I first updated to iOS 7 on my iPad and doing the above fixed it for me.

  • Help with problems with Blue tooth with ios 8.1

    I recently downloaded ios 8.1 because of previous problems involving blue tooth connectivity.  Any solutions?

    Hi 23serenity,
    Thanks for participating in the Apple Support Communities.
    It seems like your iPhone is in recovery mode, but it doesn't appear in iTunes when you connect it to your computer.
    Next, give the troubleshooting steps at one of the following links a try:
    Learn what to do if you don't see your device in iTunes for OS X, or in iTunes for Windows.

    Come on Nokia!!!  I need to be able to blue tooth other phones, Why haven't you come up with a patch that will do the job. You're letting us Nokia customers down. I really don't want to change to another suppier. 

    As previously stated countless times elsewhere in this forum, media file transfer via bluetooth in included in the next WP7.8 update.

  • Blue tooth problem after JB Update

    Updated system this morning. Have been using a motorola elite flip blue tooth with the MOTOSPEAK APP. worked great before update. Now after udate when I use the hands free button on blue tooth it activates a google speak prompt by default. The google speak voice recognition is terrible and just calls the wrong contact without any suggested options. The MOTOSPEAK still works but is not hands free if i am driving. How do i get rid of the unfriendly, anoying google speak ??????

        Bobbydub, voice dial and Bluetooth are such useful features and I want to make sure they are working well for you. Please try disabling Google Search by going to Settings, Apps, select the All tab, Google Search, Disable. Let me know if this helps with your Bluetooth issue.

    Try this  - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

    Saw this solution on another post about an iPad in a school environment. Might work on your iPad so you won't lose everything.

    ‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
    Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
    I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
    Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
    1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
    2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
    3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
    4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
    5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
    6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
    7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
    8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just canceling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
    If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.

  • Loss of Blue tooth function after upgrade to 10.6

    I have a MacBook Pro... I also have a Motorola Droid that was working perfectly with blue tooth when I was using OS 10.5 etc... I was able to "Browse" my phone, Transfer files, it worked like a dream. After upgrading my OS to Snow Leopard... I am unable to transfer files or do any thing of any value using the blue tooth connection on my computer. When I attempt to "Browse" the phone I get the message "The Device does not have the necessary services" I have searched the forums for help with this issue... I'm seeing a lot of "your phone doesn't have that capability" or "your provider has disabled that to make you pay more" or worse yet... I've seen things like "blue tooth isn't made for file transfer it's only for headsets and headphones.
    Admittedly most of the people posting these questions had never been able to browse or transfer files before and were just now trying to make this work. I on the other hand had been able to use all these services. Which is why I am not considering my phone as the source of the problem at this time.
    Nothing has changed on my phone "no updates in software" and the only change that was made is going from Leopard to Snow Leopard. This is leading me to the conclusion that there is something I'm not seeing in 10.6.x that has caused an issue with my blue tooth functionality... I have gone in to system preferences, in to file sharing and enabled sharing in bluetooth... I have also tried to delete the Bluetooth plist file as was suggested in other discussion forums.
    This has not changed any thing I still get the same error when trying to transfer files or browse. If any one else has any advice on something I could try to return my bluetooth function to Pre10.6 that would be most helpful... I'm aware of work arounds "Emailing my self,,, etc." I'd prefer to have my bluetooth back.
    Sorry if this post sounds harsh or snippy... I'm getting very frustrated.

    Is it smarter economically to repair replace the board, or use the computer as it is and purchase a replacement?
    This depends on your usage. If you find performance with 1GB to be satisfactory (maybe not optimal, but satisfactory), just keep using it as is. A new logic board (which will likely be used or refurbished depending on the source) is $400-$800 plus installation. I don't know what company's charge to repair the logic board.
    If you decide to go with a new system, you can sell your current system to offset the cost. Or just keep it as backup/extra/computer, or give it to a family member who can use it. If I were going to give it to a family member, I'd reinstall Tiger, as it probably will work a little better in 1GB than Leopard.

  • HT204368 after downloading ios7, iTunes no longer works through my blue tooth (car)- but other programs (pandora) work just fine

    After downloading ios 7.02, iTunes no longer works through my blue tooth (car), but other music apps work fine.  iTunes and iTunes radio work fine though headset and on speaker, but won't work through bluetooth.
    Anything that can be changed in 'settings' or with my iTunes so I can use it through my blue tooth?

  • HT204387 When I connect my Iphone 5C to Blue tooth it gets connected but only I can hear incoming voice. The called party cannot hear my voice. may i have the solution please.

    I have just bought this expensive phone. I tried connecting to Bluetooth car kit. It gets connected but only incoming voice can be heard. No voice goes out from Iphone.
    I also tried connecting to Samsung Bluetooth but the problem is same. There is only in coming communication and no out going.. But both the Blue tooth devices works fine with my Samsung SII.
    A working solution help will be very juch appreciated. Thanks in advance.

    I'm having the same problem. I had a plantronics 975 (which I lost, sadly). When connected, the ringer would always be routed through the bluetooth and the iPhone's external speaker. When in silent mode, the iPhone would only vibrate, but I could still hear the ringer in the bluetooth.
    I just bought a new Plantronics Voyager+. Now when it's connected, all sounds are routed to the earpiece - including the taps, etc. The iPhone's speaker doesn't ring at all, unless the bluetooth is disconnected or powered off. I'd really like to be able to hear both, like I was before. This is an iPhone 3G running iOS 4 (latest version, not sure what it is exactly). Haven't updated software/firmware in between bluetooths, just changed the earpiece.

  • Wi fii and blue tooth  turn will not turn on I phone 4s

    I can get the wi fii to turn on and the blue tooth either? the sklide bar will not work

    Hello gadavisllc1,
    It sounds like you are unable to turn on either Wi-Fi or bluetooth on the device because the slider is grayed out. I recommend the troubleshooting from the following article named:
    iOS: Wi-Fi settings grayed out or dim
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1559
    Restart your iOS device.
    Make sure that airplane mode is off by tapping Settings > Airplane Mode.
    Reset the network settings by tapping Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings.
    This will reset all network settings, including Bluetooth pairing records, Wi-Fi passwords, VPN, and APN settings.
    Make sure that your device is using the latest software. To do so, connect your device to your computer and check for updates in iTunes.
    If you still can't turn Wi-Fi on, please contact Apple for support and service options. If you can turn Wi-Fi on but are experiencing other issues with Wi-Fi, see how to resolve those Wi-Fi issues.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    All the best,
    Sterling
