Bluetooth Adapter and Headphones Woes!! It was Better on OS 2.2.1

I am hoping someone can help me with my bluetooth scenario. I connect my iPhone to the car stereo via its headphone jack and also to my Jabra SP700 bluetooth device. I cruise listening to the iPod feature of my iPhone and when a call comes in, the music stops and the bluetooth kicks in for the call. I get sound and microphone through the bluetooth. When I hang up, the bluetooth stops emitting sound and the iPod resumes music play over headphones and I am HAPPY!
With the OS 3.0, that appears to have gone away -- my happiness that is! I have found at least 2 undesirable features:
1. When I receive a phone call bluetooth kicks in and I can talk fine. However, when I hang up, the music doesn't resume anymore. I have to unlock the phone and hit play again (or double 'home' click) -- BUT now the music plays over my bluetooth headset instead of the headphones like it was before the call. I then have to fiddle with it to return it to 'headphones'. This seems less user friendly than it was before OS 3.0.
2. If I try to make a call while music is playing, it tries to handle the call via the headphones, but nothing comes out. The bluetooth does not kick in and I can't hear anything. I again have to change the audio option manually once it actually starts ringing. When the call is over and I hit play on the iPod again (yes it does not resume playing like it used to), it starts playing music over the bluetooth adapter -- Again, not what I want.
I have looked at the settings and I can't find anything to help me out here. I would like an option that lets me state what output to play iPod out of and what channel to interact the phone over. That way I could always have music from headphones and telephony via bluetooth.
I realize that stereo bluetooth is a cool new feature, but I would just like the option of it working like it did under OS 2.2.1.
Anyone have any suggestions? Can I easily revert to the old OS?
Thanks,
Blaylock

I'm having a similar issue - only iPhone is connected directly into my iPod-enabled car stereo (through a USB connection to back of stereo/standard iPhone connector cable into iPhone; installed by 3rd party vendor.)
If I'm listening to iPhone music through speakers (whether from a playlist/iPod selection, streaming Pandora, etc.) and turn on Jabra SP700 device, music is diverted to play through the Jabra speaker instead. This means I can only have the Jabra on when I know I'm going to make a call (I'll temporarily switch car stereo to radio, which doesn't conflict), but it also means I can't use it to intercept incoming calls without taking eyes off of the road, ugh.
I'm going to try to re-pair the devices later this afternoon - have already deleted my existing JabraSP700 profile on the iPhone - & will try re-pairing the devices later this afternoon. But are there other configuration changes I need to make to either the iPhone or the Jabra if that doesn't work?

  • Nano 6th generation I attached the motorola D650 bluetooth adapter and it says unsupported device... Any suggestions?

    Nano 6th generation and i connected the motorola D650 bluetooth adapter and it says unsupported device?  Any suggestions, this should work as Apple told me it would and instruction manual for headphones specifically mentioned Ipod.
    Thanks

    I've heard that there are some Ipod adapters out that will work with this trick but it would be nice if anyone knew a way to make this adapter work. I think it is a popular trick since the adapter from oakley that does work is now on back order.

  • Hotsyncing a palm centro using a bluetooth adapter and windows vista 64 bit

    Please help. I have read and followed all of the other suggestions on this forum and nothing has worked. 
    I have a palm treo.  When I try to hotsync using the bluetooth adapter, it gives me a message stating:
    "unable to connect,port is being used by another application".
    I have rebooted, soft reset, etc.    and still get the same message.  
    I do not know how to set up another port on the windows vista program.  That was one suggestion.
    I have selected both bluetooth and serial port under the hot sync manager.
    Nothing works.
    Any help is greatly appreciated.
    thanks

    Hello akashmedehrotra and welcome to the community.....
    Windows Vista 64 bit is only sync with a wireless connection.  Either Bluetooth or Infra Red.  The M515 does not have bluetooth, so you would have to purchase an IR Dongle and sync using Infra Red.  You won't be able to sync with the USB cable on your desktop.

  • Bluetooth Headset and Headphone audio out at same time?

    My GF and I were on our way to NYC on Acela and decided to watch a movie to kill time. I inadvertenly forgot to bring my headphone splitter, so I figured I could plug in one set of earphones into the headphone jack and use my bluetooth wirelessely. Upon doing so, the Mac Pro brand new, would only let me select one output via sound preferences. Any ideas or works arounds to allow audio out to both headphone jack and wireless? Is it possible to attach 2 bluetooth sets for wireless capabilities to watch movies?

  • Simultaneous E71 Bluetooth handsfree and Headphon...

    I have Bluetooth handsfree (factory) built into my Car Audio that is non-A2DP. So to listen to Audio on the E71 I need to connect through Headphone to the Car Stereo system. When I do this , Bluetooth Handsfree malfunctions. The Audio (that Im listening to )  is silenced when there is an Incoming call that I answer, but the E71 seems to cut-off ALL audio through its bluetooth  as well (I hear silence plus the other end is unable to hear anything I say).
    Ideally, I would like to have the listen to my music through the Wired Headphone link, but would like to take the incoming call through bluetooth handsfree. Any way to make both these work together?
    Please help if any of you have a fix for this.

    I doubt if this is possible because  there is interlock mechanism (hardware/software) that once the phone senses a head phone is plug into its socket be it from other source, the speaker(mike too) as well as blue tooth profile for head phone are disable. A2DP in blue tooth means it could transmit/receive in stereo.Have you tried to go the web site of that car kit, it could only be an upgrade of its firmware will solve the conectivity issue your facing. Blue tooth connection only without using a separate cable to the stereo system.

  • 990XA-GD55 - USB bluetooth adapter becomes unrecognised if left plugged in

    Hello all, I just bought and set up my new MSI 990XA-GD55 (bios 11.2) with an AMD FX-4100 3.6 GHz and I'm having a really weird problem with my usb bluetooth adapter. If I plug it in after Windows 7 (Pro 64-bit) is loaded it's recognized, installs drivers, etc. and works fine, but if I leave it plugged in and restart the machine the next time Windows loads up it shows as unrecognized until I unplug it and reinsert.
    The same bluetooth adapter has been used on my old computer and worked fine attached to an internal usb header cable (which is what I'd like to do with this one). Any ideas?

    Did windows do an 'auto' driver install? You might need to go to the manufacturers website for the specific driver package. If only a generic driver is installed, it can make the bluetooth unit do what you are experiencing.

    It did do an auto driver install, but it's not just a generic driver. It shows up as an ASUS bluetooth adapter and it works when you plug it in while Windows is running, but when you restart with it plugged it it won't work anymore.

  • USB Bluetooth adapter stops working after 10.8.5 upgrade

    For several months I've been using an IOGear USB Bluetooth adapter and a USB KVM to share my Magic Trackpad between a Mac Mini and a MBP, both machines happily running 10.8.4.
    Tonight I upgraded my MBP to 10.8.5 and now Bluetooth is apparently disabled when I have the USB adapter plugged in:
    Now I'm left with the unappealing decision of using my Trackpad with only my Mac Mini, my MBP, or constantly repairing it with either to share.
    I've been shockingly happy with this little trick, but I guess it was too good to last. Anyone have any ideas why using a USB Bluetooth adapter would stop working? Maybe I need a different adapter now?

    Thanks! That solved my problem. I just had to swap in my device id which was different than yours.
    I converted my USB adapter's idProduct value from hexidecimal (0x2101) into decimal (8449) and added this configuration:

    Below is the link to your drivers page for your HP Pavilion dm4-3055dx. All you need to do it choose your operating system and click next. After that all the drivers available for your computer will be listed. I would recommend you start with your Chipset drivers and ensure all of them are installed and up to date. I would then run Windows Update as many times as needed to ensure your system is completely up to date.

  • Nokia HDW - 3 with Silicon Wave Bluetooth Adapter ...

    Hi,
    I have the following configuration:
    Nokia HDW - 3
    Silicon Wave Bluetooth Adapter
    Windows XP Pro SP3.
    Many years ago I was able to get this headset working with another Bluetooth Dongle we had bought at the time.
    Since then I have bought the Silicon Wave Bluetooth Adapter and not been able to get my bluetooth headset to work with the adapter and my PC. All three are working seperately, I know this because I've run numerous tests but they are not playing well together.
    Is there something I am missing? Maybe there's some additional software out there I am not aware of that I can use to get Skype working with the hardware I have mentioned?
    Thanks,
    James

    I figured it out...
    On your Wave III remote, press "Aux" until "Bluetooth" appears, then hold down the presets "5" button until "Discoverable" appears. Open your mac's bluetooth in system preferences and it should show up and pair. It worked perfectly for me.

  • Epson RX595 and Jabra a320s Bluetooth adapter?

    Hi all,
    Just a quick question. I have an RX595 currently connected to my Time Capsule, and seeing as it is giving me difficulty with a Vista laptop (printing multiple copies of same job) I was looking into other connectivity options that don't include having to connect it to a computer and networking it that way. I have a Jabra a320s BT USB adapter, and when I place it in the USB port of the printer, it allows me to set up all the options in the menu (recognizes it as a BT adapter), yet when I try to add it to my MBP, I'm able to see it as a printer but it won't pair properly (times out after asking for pairing code). Do I have to buy the Epson Bluetooth print adapter or is there any way to make my setup work?

    I used my RX595 with a Belkin bluetooth adapter. It's a few years old. I can't find it right now or I'd give you the model number. Anyway, I can only print by transferring files to the RX595. This gives me practically no format control. It only uses however I set up memory card printing, paper size and whatnot, having nothing to do with computer settings. I could also only get a .jpg file to work. The printer might do .pdf files, but I don't think it'll do anything else through bluetooth.
    I'm a little bitter about their "bluetooth compatible" not including a bluetooth adapter, being so limited, and their printer sharing simply not working. Support refused to help with any of this. To quote them: "Epson tests and supports a direct connection from the printer to the Host PC/MAC." Advertising unsupported features, this is my last Epson printer for at least 4-5 years.
