Bluetooth not working, activating but not connecting

My blackberry 8310, when I turn on the bluetooth it finds my other devices (macbook and Samsung mobile ) but when I try and send to send files to my blacberry from these devices it keeps coming up, connection failed. I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong? Does anyone have any ideas.
Many Thanks

Transferring a file from your PC ( or other BT enabled device) to your BB is not "passive" once paired. You have to go into the appropriate program and from the program's menu select Receive using Bluetooth.
So if you are transferring mobile to mobile...pair them
Sending unit "Send using Bluetooth"
Receiving unit "Receive using Bluetooth"
Sending unit of course can be a PC with BT capability.
Remember just because they are paired doesn't mean it will receive it automatically.
If sending from computer I find it eaier to connect via USB and drag and drop.....

My safari doesn't work sometimes, but I connect with the internet.

my safari doesn't work sometimes, but I connect with the internet. Some of the videos I can't see with the Safari browser, but I can see it with other brower. But my friend can see these videos with her safari. And I can not connect with the app store sometimes.

Before you try to configure the settings on your Router, first thing which you need to do is, Press and hold the reset button for 60 seconds...Release the reset button...Unplug the power cable from your router, wait for 60 seconds and re-connect the power cable...
Connect the Modem to the Linksys Router on the Internet Port and then connect your computer to the Linksys router on the LAN Port 1. On your Computer click on Start - Run - CMD and click Ok... Now in the Command Prompt window type "ipconfig" and hit enter and note down the "IP address, Subnet Mask and Default Gateway" , Now again in the Command Prompt window type "ping default gateway IP" and hit enter and check if you are getting any replies, If yes then you can login to the setup page of the configure all the settings on it from scratch.

Bother...IOS 8.1 but BlueTooth not connecting

Oh dear, I've just updated my iphone 5c with IOS 8.1 and it cannot connect via Bluetooth to my MacBook pro running Yosemite. Sigh. I updated my ipad air with 8.1 and it pairs with the MacBook pro. Apart from the ipad not having a sim card the setting on both seem the same. I tried the reset network on the iphone but no luck. Any ideas what to do, or do I have to wait for an 8.xxx update.

Ok I got a good response. I was trying to connect iPhone to iMac with bluetooth as I thought this is how the iMessage linking to iPhone worked. It seems that iPhone will not connect to iMac as it was not designed to do so. (?!). The iMessaging must work through WIFI and my problem was my apple ID was an email address that I also included in the iMessage preferences as additional emails. Removing this 'duplication' solved my problem. No doubt other bluetooth connection problems exist in connection to external BT devices (though I've not had a problem yet), but pairing with an iPhone to and iMac appears to be a no no as I'm informed that even if it did, what the heck would the connection be doing that is not done by another means.

Wireless network works fine but Ethernet connection does not

Airport Extreme base station connected to DSL line connects perfectly with remote Macs. However, the hardwired Ethernet connection to my G4 is not recognized. When I connect the DSL modem to the G4 using an Ethernet cable, it works perfectly. Genius at the Apple store replaced my AP Extreme base station to no avail. Can anyone suggest what I should check for?

I have seen this exact problem when attempting to configure his iMac through Ethernet to a D-Link Router and an iBook with Airport Extreme (wirelessly) to the D-Link. The D-Link was connected to a DSL modem. The symptoms were that the wireless connection was working perfectly, but the iMac was unable to connect through Ethernet. I worked for hours trying to eliminate every possible issue. Finally, called D-Link for support and discovered the problem. I had configured the D-Link through the iBook for connection. Consequently, with it was necessary to change the iMac connection to DHCP, otherwise the logon attempt was redundant. After a fews of frustration, the lesson was thoroughly learned.

IPhone 4s bluetooth not connecting to macbook pro

My iPhone 4s bluetooth is not connecting to macbook pro. My 3Gs has always worked perfectly fine. Is there a problem with the 4s hardware or iOS 5? Anyone have any ideas?

I'm trying to connect using Bluetooth to use my iPhone as a remote for keynote while on the go (no network to connect to.) maybe it can't be done with the new iPhones but it seems like we should be able to. Thanks for the snarky and super helpful answer though.

Bluetooth not connected

Hi
I have never been successful in getting Bluetooth to connect to any other devices.
I have an iPad2 with latest OS (and iPhone 3 & 4). Turn on Bluetooth on each device and it does find each other but when I ask to pair it comes up confirm code is same on each ... Yes, ok ... But then says 'not connected'.
Don't understand that or why I cannot see other friends devices running Bluetooth as well.
Searched groups but all talk is on connecting to iMacs or other macs.
Anyone help with this one?
Thanks
Andy

"Initially a friend wanted to send me a photo from his Nokia via Bluetooth but I couldn't even see his phone."
not a feature of iphone.
"So why does my iPad and i4 see each other and ask the code question if they have no intention of talking to each other?"
They do not pair, unless it is from within an app or for internet thethering where provided by the carrier.

8520 Bluetooth not connecting to a paired device

Help, I have paired my bury cradle to the 8520 but it will not connect!! its keeps failing, anyone else had this issue?

Windows network names should be short, have no spaces and be pure alphanumeric.
Does your airport have a wireless name like,
Fred Blog's Airport Extreme wireless.
It is 1. Too Long.. make it short. 2. Spaces, get rid of them, 3. Illegal apostrophe.
Try AEwifi for eg
And AEgenx for base station name.
Still have issues, try giving a different wireless name to each band, eg AE24ghz and AE5ghz and lock the wireless channel at least for the 2.4ghz.
Test with no security and then use WPA2 Personal with password of 8-20 characters, pure alphanumeric mix of upper, lower case and numbers.
Still got troubles.. some info would help.
What device.. what windows.. what airport.. to start with.

IPad Bluetooth not connecting

You haven't really provided enough information to help you. What have you tried and what was the result. Did you change something recently? New device or old?

IMac Bluetooth not connecting to keyboard

Hello All, I have a new 2013 iMac with an Apple Wireless keyboard and Magic trackpad and for some reason the bluetooth stopped working the other day. I have tried deleting the bluetooth.pst as well as resetting the PRAM and doing a softwear update. I updated to Mavericks and that still didn't fix it. Neither the Trackpad or the Keyboard are paired with anything else and the light is flashing on both meaning they are in discovery mode

yes i have changed the batteries twice just to make sure and tried connecting it to my friends imac and it worked perfectly.Tried my old one which has a damaged key and it automatically connected

Bluetooth not connecting

SInce the 8.02 update my Bluetooth no longer works in my van. It connects and disconnects intermittently. As a handicap person I find it not only frustrating but dangerous. My call will not always connect and hangs up in mid conversation. That is when it connects. My 5s is only 2 months old. I've never seen apple drop the ball so badly with an update that made things much worse instead of better. I've owned several thousand dollies worth of Apple products over 26yrs including buying several iMacs for my classroom through grants. However I'm disappointed that the update has made things much worse. Apple please fix it so I can continue to recommend your typically superior product to others.

Hi Onemoreradar,
That's not good! I know how important your Bluetooth feature can be. Let's get this fixed. When did this issue start? What software version/build number is your device on? Settings>about phone>software or build number. Have you tried powering the device off>on, then attempting the connection? Keep me posted
Thanks,

Blackberry 9300 bluetooth not connected to vaio E series bluetooth

My blackberry curve 9300 bluetooth device not get connected to vaio E series with windows 7 (64 bit). Kindly help me how can i connect my blackberry to my laptop.

Ah I see.
Thanks for the reply..
Then I guess the problem is not the "Connected" part but the fact that I get this message..."The Device doesn't have the necessary services" after I select the file to be sent to my bluetooth device. I had thought that because there wasn't a green light connection that they weren't talking to each other. There must be some setting in my phone I need to activate or something?
