Bluetooth Headset with Bose SoundDock

I tried searching with no success.
If I get a bluetooth headset can I receive calls if I am playing music thru the iPhone in a Bose SoundDock?

I don't have a Bose but I have the same issue with a lesser radio with a iPod doc. I also have an FM transmitter for my iPod. The radio and the FM transmitter both work to play music from the iPhone but will not charge. My understanding that the charging voltage from those docks is something other than the 5 volts that the iPhone uses so the phone protects itself by not allowing the dock to charge it. I have been unable to find any type of adapter that will reduce the voltage so the dock will charge the phone.
I would love to have a Bose but am not glad I did not spend all that money and have a dock that would not charge my phone. Please post if you find any type of solution.

    How do I use a bluetooth headset with garageband? I can't get it to work after many tries.

    I can pair the headphones with the computer but the sound from GB is distorted and muffled. I can barely hear it. The set works with iTunes, but not with GarageBand.

  • I use a bluetooth headset with iPhone 5 but when I ask Siri to read my email she says I must unlock my phone first.  If I take the phone out of my pocket I might as well just read the email then.  Is there a way to fix this?

    I use a bluetooth headset with iPhone 5 but when I ask Siri to read my email she says I must unlock my phone first.  If I take the phone out of my pocket I might as well just read the email from the phone screen.  Is there a way to fix this so the phone doesn't have to be unlocked?

    Apple, as I'm sure you know, now manage official phone 'unlocks' directly rather than the Newtork doing so.
    When a GSM Network Provider buys a consignment of iPhone's they are locked to that carrier and may only be officially unlocked if said carrier requests it. If so, it is Apple who do this, via iTunes.
    I am therefore inclined to think that part of the any generic iTunes syncing process involves the transmission of key hardware data, including IMEI, to Apple whenever the handset is synced.
    If this is the case and, as each iTunes account is linked to a credit card, were Apple to maintain a database of genuinely stolen phones (ones reported to Police) they could advise said Police force when a stolen phone stuck its metaphorical head over the parapets once again? They would be able to identify the name & address of the new user.
    I have spoken to the Police here in Ireland today and they regularly engage with Apple on such matters.
    This may not be tracking as we know it Jim, (not using GSM Triangulation or GPS) but it's arguably even more targetted and leaves an indelible fingerprint of guilt on the thief.
    The laws here are simple in this regard, if you are in possession of stolen property, knowlingly or otherwise, you forfeit the goods once the Police show up. Whether you get prosecuted depends on whether you stole the goods or were duped into purchasing them.

  • Can I share a bluetooth headset with my iPhone 4 and my Mac?

    Can I share a bluetooth headset with my iPhone 4 and my Mac? I don't mean both at the same time. I just think it's silly to buy a separate headset for each. I'd like to be able to sometimes use the headset with my Mac and other times use it with my iPhone. Is this possible? How hard is it to set up and is it annoying to switch over from one to the other.
    The headset would be used 75% of the time with my iPhone.

    Contacts can be synced direct with Outlook 2003, 2007, or 2010 via the iTunes sync process along with syncing calendar events, notes, and reminders. This is selected under the Info tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes.
    If you don't use Outlook for contacts - your Outlook address book is empty, before the first sync for this data enter one contact in the Outlook address book. This will provide a merge prompt with the first sync for this data.
    Or if your iPhone 4 is running iOS 6, you can create your hotmail account using the hotmail account preset with the iPhone's Mail app per the instructions included with this link. If your iPhone 4 is not running iOS 6, you will need to manually create the account as an Exchange account.
    http://www.wikihow.com/Sync-a-Hotmail-Account-on-an-iPhone
    Regardless if you have any contacts available in your hotmail online address book, you should be provided a merge prompt when turning contacts on for over the air syncing with your hotmail account settings on the iPhone, which you want to select. This will merge your existing iPhone contacts with your hotmail online address book and merge your hotmail online address book with your iPhone contacts.
    To have the contacts available on the iPhone 5, create your hotmal account with the Mail.app on the iPhone 5 followed by turning contacts on for over the air syncing with the account settings on the iPhone.
    Or after syncing your iPhone 4 contacts direct with your Outlook address book, sync your Outlook contacts with the iPhone 5.

  • Can't pair up my Samsung WEP410 bluetooth headset with my iphone

    I am able to pair up my samsung bluetooth headset with my other phone. Once I try to connect it with my iphone, my iphone just showing searching forever.
    is there anybody know what's going on???
    THanks

    I have the same headset and paired it successfully using these steps:
    1) Put iPhone in bluetooth discovery mode (Settings > General > Bluetooth > On). While on this page your iphone will have bluetooth visibility on and will search for devices.
    2) Put your samsung headset in discovery mode by holding down the large button for 10 seconds. You should see a constant blue light (not flashing).
    3) Your iPhone should detect the headset and ask for a pin code, enter 0000.
    4) Your headset should now show as being paired with the iPhone.

  • TS2771 itouch stopped working with Bose sounddock after software update 5.1.1

    Have an iTouch that used to work well with Bose SoundDock.  Then updated iTouch software to version 5.1.1  and as usual apple ITouchOS now does not recognize the Bose SoundDock at all now.  Error message iTouch does not support this accessory.  What the heck?  How to fix?  Buying new dock is not solution. iTouch is gen 4.

    You can try the standard fixes:
    Reset. Nothing is lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory settings/new iPod
    - If still the problem then it appears that the iOS update broke the compatibility. That happens sometimes. In that case you have to wait for an update from either Apple or Bose.
    - Also, use the communities search box in the upper right and search for. bose. I think other users had same problem. It is hard to remember the dock manufacturer.

  • Use Bluetooth headset with Shuffle?

    Is there anyway I can use a Bluetooth headset with my latest generation iPod shuffle?

    There is no built-in Bluetooth, obviously, but I suppose it is technically possible if you plug in a Bluetooth transmitter like this one
    http://www.iogear.com/product/GBMA211W6/
    which works with anything that outputs audio through a mini-stereo jack.  It might look somewhat rediculous with a tiny iPod shuffle connected. 
    It might be better to get something like this
    http://www.arriva.com/shuffle/index.html
    where the shuffle becomes part of the headset, with no cord in between.

  • Cannot pair Sony MW1 smart bluetooth headset with Avantree Saturn (bluetooth dongle)

    How can I pair my Sony MW1 smart bluetooth headset with Avantree Saturn (bluetooth dongle)? It kept showing "codes not matching", which means the wrong passkey codes auto-entered. But I can't enter any right codes the Avantree Saturn needed ("0000","1111",.....). Or where can I find the information to solve the problem? Thanks!

  • Which Stereo Bluetooth headset with remote supports for Iphone3Gs??

    please anybody can tell me which is the best Stereo Bluetooth headset with remote support for Iphone3Gs??
    thanks in advance

    Hello thomulusmax,
    Welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums
    As long as your device is running software version 4.2.2 or higher it supports A2DP. (You can verify this under Options >> About)
    Keep in mind that not all Bluetooth headsets are A2DP enabled. As long as your headset supports A2DP and it pairs and connects with your Pearl you should be able to listen to any supported audio format.
    Cheers!

  • Compatable bluetooth headsets with E series

    It would be great, if guys using a bluetooth headset with E series phones could rate them,it could help a lot of people out there.I myself could not find a single review on line that does this job.
    Be free to include non-nokia Blue tooth headsets too,because all that matters here, is the quality and not the brand.

    Hi,
    I use the higher end Nokia headsets. The BH-803 is not bad and is recommended on the site. It will turn itself off if not used or connected within 30 mins. It has DSP as well. It is pretty good. The best all around headset that I have is the Plantronics 640. Very nice.
    Many SE headsets work better than the Nokia ones, but considering they all pretty much use the same chipset (BT), you will not notice much difference.Message Edited by sapporobaby on 15-Oct-200704:41 PM

  • IPod touch 4 with Bose sounddock portable

    Hey buddies, my IPod touch 4 (iOS 5.1.1) isn't fit with Bose Sounddock Portable, how come? You guys have any solution? Thx

    If you mean theat the 4G iPd does not full mate with the dock you have two solutions:
    - Modify the dock with knife and duct tape to make it fit.
    - Use a dock extender:
