Bluetooth keeps turning on

Subject line says it all. Bluetooth keeps turning on - I go to settings and turn it off. Look at phone a few mins layer and it's back on again. How to tuen it off - permanently.

If you hold down the power button and then use the slide on the screen, the phone will power off. Then pressing the button will power the phone on again. If you hold down both the power and the home buttons together and keep holding them until the Apple logo appears, then releasing both buttons and ignoring the slide to power off screen, that is a reset. If that doesn't help, the next step is to do a reset, first from a backup, next as a new phone, or not from a backup.
I'm assuming that you had turned bluetooth off before you did this and when you looked again it was on? See what happens with the reset and see if that corrects it. If not, the next step is to make an appointment at the Apple Genius Bar and have them examine the phone. You can make an appointment online at http://www.apple.com/retail/geniusbar

  • After the new update, why does my Bluetooth keep turning itself on? I keep turning it off, but it still finds a way to turn itself back on

    After the new update, why does my Bluetooth keep turning itself on? I keep turning it off, but it still finds a way to turn itself back on

    hi Apfelwurm,
    why do you say it's not normal.
    it always switches itself on after i update. it just did again, this time for 7.1.2.. i t also will switch on after a restore.
    i never use bluetooth and make sure it's not on for any other reason.
    it's been noticed by others too.

  • Why Bluetooth keeps turning on?

    I turned off it for ~5 times in the settings, I don't need it, but it keeps turning back on by itself.

    I have the same problem.  It's new to ios 7 I think.  I just turned bluetooth off, restarted the phone and guess what, it's back on again.  Bumping for any suggestions!!

  • Odd problem after Kernel update - Bluetooth keeps turning on

    I recently upgraded from the 2.6.30 kernel to version 2.6.31. With this upgrade I have noticed something odd - there's a light indicating that the Bluetooth controller is on. This light now turns on when I boot Arch. I have never installed any Bluetooth drivers or software, and I'd prefer if bluetooth disabled as I do not use it with Arch. Does anyone have any ideas?
    Btw, my machine is a Thinkpad T61 with a "Broadcom Corp. Bluetooth Controller", according to lsusb.

    I've a Thinkpad T60 with the same controller and problem.  I've taken to working around this by disabling bluetooth in rc.local, though I'd be very grateful for a solution.

  • Sony ps3 bluetooth headset keeps turning itself off

    I recently purchased the official sony ps3 bluetooth headset, hoping it would also work with my mac. I've paired it, and successfully used it but the headset itself keeps turning off. Has anyone else experienced this issue?
    Thanks~

    Yes, it's fully charged. I plan on posting on the sony forums also, but I figured I'd try this approach also, given I have a feeling both companies are going to put the blame on the other. It does seem like sony's issue to me though, but you never know. I was just hoping I'd find someone who had the same experience (or a good experience where it does work) on these forums.

  • My Macbook keeps turning on

    Last night I noticed that my Macbook (13'', about 16 months old) wouldn't go to sleep. When I closed the lid, it keep waking up every few seconds (= it gets the apple light and the dvd drive sound) and then going to sleep again.
    What is worse, it can't be shut down either. If you try to shut it down (both by choosing the option from the menu or by using the button), it turns on itself immediately - the OS is on & it asks me to introduce my profile password.
    The only way to actually turn it off is to remove the battery & unplug it.
    Also, my Macbook sometimes can't see the battery - even if fully charged. It's enough to remove it and put it again in to solve the problem.
    The bluetooth is turned off and there are no phones/hardware with the bluetooth active in my flat.
    I've tried resetting smc and have run the hardware test - no results.
    Any thoughts / suggestions on that?

    Try starting the MB in Safe mode. If the trouble goes away in Safe mode, then there is definitely a problem with the configuration of your main account. If the problem persists under Safe mode, then it could be a hardware problem, in which case you will need to have it serviced.

    Thankyouuu
    it looks like that when it is locked and when its unlocked it looks like this

    Have you checked the volume button? It might be physically stuck. To determine whether a hardware repair is needed, you need to follow these steps:
    1. Try doing a hard reset:
    Press and hold both the Home button and the Sleep/wake button simultaneously for about 15 seconds and release when the Apple logo appears.
    After that: test the device to see whether the issue is solved.
    2. If the issue is not solved, you should backup the device and restore it as new.
    In that case, use: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137
    NB: set up as a NEW device because a software issue will be in the backup.
    If the issue persists after restoring as new, you should offer the device for service.
    If you get specific error messages/codes in iTunes when updating/restoring, check this: http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3694 for causes and solutions
    Good luck

  • My iPhone 3GS keeps turning itself off all the time for no reason every time I put it on silent or just get a Facebook message I have a broken sleep/power button anyone know how to fix this problem?

    My iPhone 3GS keeps turning itself off all the time the power/sleep button dosent work so it's quiet annoying having to plug it in all the time dose anyone have a fix for this?

    The "fix" is to get the phone repaired.  There's no magic solution for a broken phone.
    Bring your phone ant $149 to Apple for an out of warranty replacement, or find a 3rd party repair shop near you. 

  • Two iPhones on same MobileMe account but one keeps turning a calendar on.

    Hello. I have two iPhones that I have connected to one MobileMe account. We do that so certain calendars, notes, etc will sync. I have a certain set of calendars turned on on one of them and a different set on the other. I made a new calendar for bills and one for other reminders that we both don't need. Turned them on on one and off on the other. On the one which they are turned off, one of them keeps turning back on after it is switched off. I have not been able to determine how long it takes but it eventually does turn on because the next time the reminders are supposed to come up it is definitely on there. Any idea why this might be?

    But could I at least use the Find My Iphone app on the second Iphone if I just leave all the other Icloud options off?  If I activate Find My Iphone on the second phone, will it just show two Iphones in the menu when I search for the Iphone on my Mac, or do I need to set up a second Icloud account for the second phone?
    That will work just fine.

  • Cellular data and 3g keeps turning on by itself

    i have an iphone 4 on ios 7.0.4 and it was working fine but since 2 hours ago the cellular data network and the 3g keeps turning on by them self even when i'm connected to wifi and when i turn them off they turn back on again every singe time !!!!! why is that happening ???
    ps: the only thing i did in the last 2 hours was restarting the phone , i don't know if that has anything to do with it
    so can anyone tell me how to make it stop doing that

    When I turn off the data connection that checks my emails, it will switch back on by itself later.
    I think if you have email on a schedule to be checked, Windows Mobile will try to reestablish your connection. You might try changing the schedule (or having mail checked Manually) and see whether that solves the issue.

  • Apps keep turning cellular data on

    I keep turning off data for most of my apps so that I can only use them on wifi but lately some pass keep turning their cellular data on. I try to turn it off again but they always manage to turn it back on after I leave my settings

    I've seen similar things going on even though I explicitly turned off Cellular data.  I also added restrictions to disallow changes to "Cellular Data" settings, still managed to enable itself.  And just to clarify, I know for a fact that the Cellular Data setting was not explicitly re-enabled.
    But, notice the per-app settings below the Cellular Data ON/OFF under General Settings / Cellular Data.  My guess is that each application ALSO needs to be set to OFF to disallow Cellular Data use -- in fact that may be the very thing that's causing the setting to be magically re-enabled. 
    IMO it's a pretty poor design to even allow application to change the ON/OFF switch of Cellular Data, period.  If the global setting is set to OFF it should stay off unless the user explicitly re-enables that feature.  The fact that the user needs to set not only the global feature to OFF but also enable protections in other places per-application is a huge concern.
    Just consider all of the unauthorized charges that are being racked up by the cellular vendors against users that are unknowingly "authorized" by the use of, in most cases, a fully approved downloaded application.  Hmmm...
    Terms and Conditions per application will need to be heavily scrutinized but even if mentioned in the T&C's somewhere on page 74, line 62 -- that doesn't guarantee indemnity.  It sure sounds like a class-action lawsuit is on the horizon.
