Bluetooth cannot connect ipod with Ipad2

I cannot get my Ipod touch paired with my Ipad2, Is it me or it is something wrong with the software?, I can connect either one with my Mac but cannot connect neither share files between Ipod and Ipad.

There is nothing to do. This has never been a feature of the ipod.

Are you running Leopard on your Mac, Laurie?
If so, try instead updating to iTunes 10.6.3.25. (That supports earlier models of iPhones running iOS 6, even though it can't run the new iPhone 5s.)
A .dmg installer for iTunes version 10.6.3.25 for Mac OS can be found at the following download page on the Apple website:

I have the Apple MC184LL/A Bluetooth Wireless Keyboard. The brigtness control works with mine, as do most of the other functions.
Try cycling the keyboard off and on. Hold the power button until the green LED goes out. Then press it one more time to turn it back on.
You might try resetting the iPad's network. Go to Settings-General-Reset-Reset Network Settings. Then you may need to reconnect your WiFi and Bluetooth.
If that doesn't help, try resetting/rebooting the iPad. Hold both the Home and Sleep buttons for several seconds until the Apple logo appears. Ignore the "Slide to power off" arrow. The iPad will restart in a couple of minutes. Resetting this way will not hurt anything, and sometimes clears up mysterious problems.

Cannot sync ipod with itunes after setting up new computer with newest version of itunes

Cannot sync ipod with itunes after setting up on new computer, only songs which tansferred were songs bought on new computer after set up, tried to sync songs and it deleted old songs from ipod. How can I get them back on ipod?? They are showing in music library on itunes still.

If the iPod database gets corrupted, it will add files to "Other" instead of where they really belong.
Restoring the iPod will erase this database and recreate it.
And if I do this, won't I just have the same issue when my iPod is re-updated to the most recent version again?
No, it shouldn't. This is why you Restore the iPod. It erases the corrupt database.

Can I connect iPod (with dock connector) with just a USB connector?

My mother-in-law gave my daughter her old iPod (with dock connector). It was supposed to come with an adapter that converts the 6-pin firewire cable to a USB cable (you are supposed to plug the 6-pin into the dock connector to charge it, then use the adapter to connect to your computer). We never got The adapter, so I just used USB connector from my own iPod nano to connect the old iPod into the computer. All kinds of error messages. I've now restored the iPod and it seems to be working, but I'm afraid to plug it back in using just the USB cable. Is it possible to connect the USB cable directly from the iPod to the computer without the adapter? Or could the problem be that I have also use my iPod nano on this computer? Thanks for any help you can provide.

A 15GB iPod would have to be a 3rd gen iPod. It has a touch (not click) wheel with four touch buttons in a row that glow orange during use, correct? That model needs to be connected using FireWire, because it cannot charge over USB.
If your new Mac has a Thunderbolt port, you can get an adapter for FireWire
http://store.apple.com/us/product/MD464ZM/A/apple-thunderbolt-to-firewire-adapte r
plus an adapter for FireWire 800 to FireWire 400

Another way, if you have the square white FireWire power adapter that came with your iPod, is to get a special docking cable that Apple used to sell a long time ago. It has both USB and FireWire connectors. Here's a listing for a third-party version on eBay
http://www.ebay.com/itm/2-Vanco-iPod-Dock-Connector-to-1-USB-1-FireWire-Cable-/2 71074766489?pt=US_MP3_Player_Chargers_Cradles&hash=item3f1d50ae99
(Search on "FireWire USB iPod docking cable" to see other listings.)
What you do with this thing is plug the USB connector to your Mac's USB port, the FireWire connector to the FireWire power adapter, and the dock connector to the iPod. iPod can then sync over USB while getting power over FireWire.
I would go with that special cable, to avoid using a series of adapters (which adds complexity and unreliability) and tying up the valuable Thunderbolt port for just your iPod.

Cannot sync iPod with click wheel to iTunes...

I cannot sync my iPod with click wheel to my iTunes on Windows. I have already attempted the five R's, multiple times, including restoring my iPod three times, and updating my iTunes software. But when I plug my iPod in, it takes forever to be recognized by iTunes, and just sits there, whizzing and clicking, with the "Do Not Disconnect" message blinking. After awhile, iTunes will download a song or two from my library, then quit. I often get a message that says my iPod is "corrupted." Help! How can I get my iTunes library back on to my iPod?

I am having similar issues. I have received lots of advice, none of which work so far but there is lots to try here. Good luck!

Problem connecting ipod with dvd

Hi. I have an ipod nano. Before installing software version 1.2 I could connect it with my dvd via usb and manage it as a external disk, but after installing ipod software version 1.2 my dvd does not recognize ipod when I connect it via usb. I also have an ipod video with the same software and have the same problem. Anyone could help me?.
Thanks.

If you have a new enough iPod, they are now requiring an apple adapter that has the apple computer chip in it to work. I did a general search on the web and came up with better info than here.

Cannot update ipod with either music or photos

Yesterday I received my new ipod. When it was being setup, I choose the options of synching music and photos (photos was defaulted to unchecked). After it got all setup, a lot of photos got put into my ipod.
Since then, whenever I try to update my ipod with either photos or music, the same bad result occurs. 2 error messages:
The ipod "owner's ipod" cannot be updated. An unknown error occurred (-50), followed by:
The ipod "owner's ipod" cannot be updated. The disk could not be read from or written to
I installed itunes a few days ago, so not having the most up-to-date software should be the problem, I assume.
If I don't get a solution soon, I guess I will have to call Apple support, because I am really stumped.

I had also tried to restore, but got a 1418 error.
BUT I FIXED MY PROBLEM:
Reinstalled itunes
Unplugged ipod
Rebooted pc
Replugged ipod
In setup screen, for synch photos, picked an empty folder
Now, all the photos in ipod were wiped out. I think maybe a non-photo file was originally sycnhed into the photo folder, causing corruption?

HT1349 Why bluetooth cannot connect between MacBook Pro and iPhone 3? If I need how?

I'm trying to connect ipnone 3 and MACBook Pro through bluetooth for photo transfer...but unable to recongnise, please advise?

"I tried enabling Bluetooth on my MacBook Pro and iPhone, thinking I could file transfer some photographs."
This is not a feature of iphone. Never has been.
Other than tethering for internet, where provided by the carrier, you cannot connect to a computer/device/phone and do anything.
Bluetooth is for handsfree telephone devices/headsets, stereo speakers/headsets, some keyboards, some peer to peer apps from the app store and tethering where provided by the carrier.

NAC 3310- cannot connect to with serial connection

I have (2) 3310 NAC appliances that someone else set up and configured. I need to access via a serial connection to my laptop to upgrade the software. I cannot connect via Hyperterm. I have 4 other NAC appliances that I can connect to fine via direct laptop serial connection. My hyperterm settings are correct. Log files do not show anything that could be causing this (per TAC). I can access via ssh over the network, and through the web gui.

Short description is, I serial connected to the CAS's to do
a software upgrade, and could not get a connection to either of them. Through troubleshooting it seemed there were other issues going on with the Active CAS. Once I rebuilt (re-installed software) and reconfigured the HA pair, I was able to serial connect to both and then proceed with the upgrade.

Connecting iPod with AV Cables

I have the 5G iPod and use the AV cables to ocassionally watch some TV programing from iTunes. I find it all right for the shows and music videos.
Has anyone watched a movie yet from their iPod on a TV using the AV cables?
If so, how would you characterize the quality? Is it worth doing?
It seems that this may be a good way to watch the movies until iTV comes out (and even then, if to avoid spending $300)
Thanks in advance.

While I can't speak for the quality of the movie files available for sale through iTunes, I can say that I have updated to firmware version 1.2 and my original 5G 60Gig iPod now has increased video capabilities. I use the Universal Dock to connect to my monitor and amplifier using an s-video cable to BNC connector for video and a seperate 3.5mm to RCA plug cable for audio. I can play the full 640 x480 native rez claimed for the 5.1G iPod on my 5.0G iPod. How's it look? My files compare very favorably to the original DVD when played back from the iPod to a TV. This is a godsend when travelling. The specs of my files: I encode from DVD using NERO 7 - Re-Code, Profile: Nero Digital - Standard, Rez: (We'll use "Bewitched" as an example) 720x384, Bit Rate: Video-1.5Mbps Average Bitrate 2-pass VBR. Audio - 160Kbps Average Bitrate 2-pass VBR. MPEG-4 level 3 (not H.264). My total file size is actually a little smaller (1.08Gigs) using Nero-Recode vs. using Quicktime and the default iPod H.264 export profile (1.16Gigs) even though my native resolution and audio bit rate are higher. When played back from my PC to my TV my Nero MPEG-4 files also have chapter stops and subtitles. In case your wondering, the additional data for subtitles and chapter stops are invisible to iTunes and iPod and have no detrimental effect on their playablity. I don't know if other people are willing to go to the degree that I do to milk out the playback quality that I desire but having done the work I can justifiably say that Yes the iPod with firmware version 1.2 is very up to the task of outputting full DVD quality (scaled for proper display of aspect ratio) to a TV. The one caveat that I have seen is that the iPod has an interlaced video output where as many set top DVD players use progressive out put. This can show up as aliasing most notably during title crawls and scenes with strong single colors, red for example will alias noticably. I know I have been long-winded in my response but I tried to bring some usable information to the discussion. I'd like to hear from others about their video experiences.

Connecting iPod with Treadmill (Nike Program)

According to the Nike+ iPod site, Star Trac treadmills are now being equipped with iPod connectors for direct download of running/workout information, which than be loaded into the same Nike+ online program to track runs. Has anyone used this? It bypasses the need for the special shoes and transmitting chip, but I wonder if special software is required for the iPod to recognize this connection and download this info from the treadmill?

Thanks for your reply, I think that's what caused the problems. I tried to transfer music to the iPod with iTunes today and the OTG playlist remained the same.
There's just one thing that bugs me. Why can't the iPod or iTunes leave my OTG playlist the way it is when I connect? Instead it creates an OTG playlist 1 which can't be altered by adding or removing songs. I mean, is there really no way to keep a live playlist with all songs I prefer to hear? I Don't want to create a new playlist every time I want to add or remove a few songs from my prefered songs selection. It's weird that nobody has thought about that yet.
Well, I guess I gotta talk to Red Chair Software then, hope they'll fix the bug.
