Bluetooth paring on iTouch wont work

I cant get my iTouch and MBP to pair using Bluetooth.
If I can get it to work, what would I be able to do with it.

Hello FCPeditor,
Your iPod Touch only supports Bluetooth for headphone/speakers and peer-to-peer gaming only. Sorry. For more information on support bluetooth profiles, see this Apple support document.

    Hello Allycat11,
    Here is a great article for troubleshooting the multi touch display software issues.
    iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Troubleshooting touchscreen response
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1827
    Symptoms
    Use this article to troubleshoot the following iPhone, iPad, iPod touch Multi-Touch display (or touchscreen) response issues:
    Multi-Touch display (or touchscreen) does not respond
    Portions of the Multi-Touch display do not respond
    Multi-Touch display is very slow to respond
    Multi-Touch response is erratic
    Resolution
    If your device is experiencing any of the symptoms listed above, try the following steps:
    Restart your device
    Hold the On/Off button until "slide to power off" appears. Slide to power off your device. When it is off, press the On/Off button to turn it back on.
    If you can't restart your device, reset it by pressing and holding the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for a least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    Clean the screen with a soft, slightly damp, lint-free cloth.
    Avoid using the device while wearing gloves, with wet hands, or immediately after applying hand lotion.
    If you have a protective case, or if you are using a plastic sheet or film on the display, try removing them and testing the device without it.
    If the steps above don't resolve your issue, please schedule a service appointment with an Apple Retail Store for evaluation. If an Apple Retail store is not an option, contact Apple to find out your best service option or see theService FAQ for your product. 
    Additional Information
    Tip: To isolate an issue related to a portion of the Multi-Touch display, follow these steps:
    Open the Maps application and double-tap each corner, then the center, to verify that it zooms in to each section.
    If a specific area is affected in another application, note the location and try to verify touch functionality for that location in the Maps application.
    On iPhone and iPod touch, you can also use Calculator:
    Open the calculator app to test all but the top row of the screen. Press each button on the calculator and verify activity.
    To test the area at the top of the screen, rotate the device to change to the scientific calculator and press the buttons in the left or right two rows.
    When speaking with a Mac Genius or Service Provider, you can use this information to assist with evaluation of your issue.
    All the best,

  • My Itouch wont work, can anyone please tell me what to do?

    I was just using my itouch a while ago then I locked it. After 5minutes I tried to unlock it but nothing happened. I tried pressing the ON button in case it shut down but again nothing happened. What am I gonna do?

    After updating to iOS6, I lost all sound for apps like YouTube, Netflix, games, and even notifications. The only time sound worked was during a phone call or when the head set was plugged in.
    I did a full back up and restore- sound restored but only for a day before the problem returned.
    Called Apple Support and was advised to do another restore, but this time restore it as NEW first, then do the restore from back up.
    Seemed to do the trick.
    Here are the instructions of what I was given- hopefully this will help you too:
    Here is a link about backing up your iPhone with iTunes.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766?viewlocale=en_US
    Once you back up your device you will want to restore it.
    You will need to have iTunes open on your computer screen.
    Please turn your iPhone off.
    Press and hold the Home Button.
    Continue to hold the Home Button as you plug you iPhone in to the usb cable.
    You will want to continue to hold the Home button until you get a screen with the message "device found in recovery mode".
    Please follow the prompts and restore device as NEW.
    once the restore is done you will have to set up the device and test the sound.
    If it works you will then need to restore the device from the back up to restore your user settings.
    You can find the instructions how to restore from back up also from the the link I provided.

  • Best aftermarket car iphone 4 mp3 player with bluetooth paring working

    Can anybody recommend a good aftermarket car stereo that works well with the iphone 4 mp3 player and has bluetooth paring working? Thanks

    I got the JVC KW-XR810 at Best Buy.. Only a few of the mass issues but for the most part it plays well... I have found I have the best luck using it in ipod mode instead of headunit or external modes which if you get it you will see what I am referring too.. If you would happen to purchase this unit please contact me after you are familiar with it so maybe we can help each other overcome the common issues everyone is having with all the audio units in any make whether it be aftermarket or the factory radios.. in anything from the cheapest car to the most expensive from what I have read in this thread.. Hope this helps

  • Rocketfish Bluetooth Keyboard RF-BTKB2 not working under Windows 7 64 bit

     Rocketfish Bluetooth Keyboard RF-BTKB2 not working under Windows 7 64 bit
    Anyone had successs in this or another Bluetooth Keyboard after a bit of a struggle?  What did you do to get it working?  When I Add Device in Bluetooth it sees the keyboard but enlessly scans for it when I try to select and connect.  The Rocketfish Bluetooth mouse worked just fine.

    My friend, i have both, the bluetooth mouse and keyboard here that your talking about. and the keyboard was a struggle to pair with the windows 7 64 bit.... i think i spent 2 days working with it. and i didnt try anything special, i just kept trying to pair
    it, and unplugging the dongle and working with it... and after a while. it worked... Lately though, i have been looking into getting a wired mouse and keyboard becuase of the delays and sleep time i have with my current keyboard(rocketfish). supposidly there
    is a way around the delays but it disables all the options on your keyboard. IE the media buttons, and web browsing features. and my mouse keeps dieing off too....
    Also, after researching these products more, i found that alot of people experienced similar problems with them, Being delays and mouse failure. Even with fresh batteries and all. The products werent meant to be used long term(2-3 years) for extensive use...
    I dont know about you but i thinki paid 100 bucks for the pair so thats only 25 bucks a year... Which is kinda silly considering i coulda got a better one that wont cough up on me.
    If anyone reading this finds a good wireless keyboard that doesnt delay, and a mouth that doesnt delay...(my biggest concern). Please mention it. i am very interested in.

  • Mac mini screen wont work after lion

    My hdmi connection to my tv wont work after installing lion last night. It worked once last night but hasnt worked since. All cables are in tact and computer is set up the same. I cant even see anything to fix it!

    I called apple - I'd have been in trouble if my mac had been my only internet access!
    I had to reset the P-RAM
    as so:
    mac is powered off
    turn on power then instantly press keys: command option P R
    the mac will chime as usual then on the second chime let go of the keys.
    After this my screen worked again.
    For info - command key is cmd, option key is alt
    I did this with an old mac wired keyboard - not sure if it will work on bluetooth keyboard, but it might.

  • External isight wont work with imac g4

    Hello,
    I recently purchased a second hand isight camera using ebay.
    I have an older imac g4 and the isight wont work with it at all.
    I have scoured the forums on this topic and looked through all of EZ Jim's suggestions but I think my problem is a little bit different.
    I'll explain exactly what happens and my troubleshooting so far...
    The imac G4 is powered off, I plug in the external isight via firewire 400
    The imac boots up into leopard 10.5.8 (using leopard assist)
    In system profiler the isight is listed under the firewire tab.
    ( I can post system profiler info on this if its needed)
    When I turn on the camera ichat launches, but then in the video tab it says no camera is connected.
    Photobooth just has the no camera sign, but interestingly when ichat is opened photobooth says "camera off"
    sometimes photobooth even lets me click the photo button, it counts down but then it doesnt take a picture... obviously!
    Skype doesnt work.
    I have an imac 24" running snow leopard 10.6.6 .... that also detects the camera but it won't work with any application such as skype or ichat.
    I have tried (on my G4) unplugging my usb bluetooth module but nothing changes.
    My G4 is connected via ethernet to an external router.
    The firewire cable seems ok, I dont have any other firewire devices, but if it was a problem with the BUS or the cable then im guessing it wouldnt show in system profiler.
    I am thinking the camera is probably damaged, but before I start a paypal enquiry I would like to see if it is just my computer or a setting i need to change.
    (oh I used the application isight updater in core services but the install button is greyed out)
    Any help would be amazing!!
    Thanks!!!

    Well, about all you can do would be to try a different and known good
    FireWire cable, as a replacement for what may be a defective FW400
    cable that came with the iSight camera. The cable can be defective
    with one bad wire, yet sometimes appear available to the computer.
    • How to Troubleshoot iSight (note external vs internal)
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2090
    • iMac G5 (iSight), & Intel-based iMac: Using External video camera:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2819
    If you know of someone with an older Mac without a built-in iSight
    camera, to test that one on, this may be an OK idea. Not sure if you
    could get any traction by taking the camera to an Apple Specialist
    and ask if they could check it out for you; that may also cost you.
    {And since your computer does not officially support Leopard 10.5,
    the other avenues of support would probably not be open to you.
    At least not with the old iMac G4 and an unsupported 10.5 install.}
    I have an external iSight camera which was included with my G4 Mini
    1.5GHz model, and that appeared to work OK with 10.5.8 at one point.
    But I really have no need for it, since I don't use photobooth & so on.
    And haven't tried that with my iMac G4 computers at all. No need to.
    With a computer not equipped with an iSight camera, the Leopard 10.5
    installation should still support the eventual addition of one; even if the
    computer itself appears to not officially support a Leopard 10.5 install.
    (You refer to Leopard Assist, a means to install in slower CPU Macs.)
    The FW cable is about the most easy to consider at this point.
    In the course of a year, I've found good replacement cables at
    several places, even those at thrift stores in perfect shape, work
    and I use them for FW external hard disk drives, primarily. To have
    spares is nearly always a good idea. Test & keep known good ones.
    I'm not certain how the external iSight FW camera may work on
    a newer Intel-based 24" iMac with a built-in iSight camera, too.
    Does your 24" computer have FireWire 400+800 ports? Can you
    choose an external iSight camera and ignore the built-in one?
    These secondary topics have probably been discussed in the other
    forum area for Intel-based iMac computer models; if you chose to
    try & use that camera with a model computer with one built-in...
    • Apple - Support - Discussions: for Intel-based iMac
    http://discussions.apple.com/category.jspa?categoryID=189
    There is a possibility, if never tried and the iMac G4 computer was
    acquired second-hand, that the FW port within it may be band; but
    the cable is the first item since it is cheapest, in troubleshooting.
    So, anyway, the hour is late here (1AM) so hopefully the matter
    can be resolved with a known-good replacement FW400 cable.
    You should not have to restart the iMac G4 (800?) model in order
    to get a FireWire item to be recognized. It should appear in the
    System Profiler's list under FireWire, such as things normally do.
    Of course, the camera could be defective as well. Been some
    time since they were available on sale, new from Apple...
    You could ask around to find out if there is a way to use that
    external iSight camera with your newer Intel-based 24" Mac
    by someone having it ignore its own built-in camera; in a
    way as to not affect its normal operation, that is.
    Good luck & happy computing!

  • Itouch wont turn on/ connect/ broken home button

    My iTouch was working a little ago... now it wont turn on, the home button only responds if I press hard and twist, and it wont connect to my laptop... WHAT DO I DO?
    FYI, theres no Apple store nearby

    You will probably have to download the computer program as well as iTunes on the other computer.
    You can also try the following on your computer

  • Wireless keyboard wont work....

    I bought a wireless keyboard (KB1) and it wont work.  I suspect a defective receiver or possibly I was given the wrong receiver......it is a big square receiver (bigger than any I have seen) and it doesnt say HP anywhere on it.  Does anyone know if it is the correct receiver or if I can get the correct one? Or is it too much of a hassle?

    Hi:
    The newer wireless Bluetooth keyboards only have two batteries (the older ones have three).
    Try a couple of "standard" troubleshooting steps to see if that helps:
    Trash a preference file (com.apple.bluetooth.plist) and restart.
    Reset the PRAM
    Reset the SMC.
    Instructions for resetting PRAM and SMC are in knowledge base articles.

  • My Ipod touch wont work and ive tried everything!!

    Please help! My ipod touch (8gb) just stopped working one day and I think it had something to do with being Jailbroken and having less then 20% of battery, But now it wont work and ive let it charge for 2 days straight, Ive tried plugging it into the computer - Nothing, Ive tried holding down the sleep and home button - Still nothing! please help, i dont want to get a new one because this one has absolutly Everything on it.
    Also, my iphone comes up with No wifi and its all grey but my bluetooth is fine...and ive restored it and everything...help on that too?

    Your iPod.
    When you held both Sleep & Home Button, did you hold for more than 10secs until you see Apple logo?
    If that still does not work
    try this.....
    1. Plug into a power source
    2. Hold down the power button(Sleep button) for about 5 seconds
    3. After 5 seconds of holding down the power button, hold down the home button while still holding down the power buttom (so now you are holding them both down) for about 5 seconds.
    4. After 5 seconds of holding them both down, let go of the power button - but still keep holding down the home button - hold the home buttom alone for about 5 seconds.
    You should then see the apple icon on the screen. be patient. after about 5 seconds of the apple icon on the screen, the ipod should turn on.

  • Ipod is recognised under my computer but wont work in itunes,

    My ipod worked fine on my old computer i dont think i had the most recent itunes but everything was working fine i had windows XP. Now i have a new laptop with windows 7 and my ipod wont work in itunes, i have uninstalled and reinstalled itunes 9 and even tried itunes 8 but nothing seemed to help the situation, i know its not the cable as it shows under my computer, i have taken all my music off the ipod because it asked to reformat it i have tried that twice, i get the message your ipod needs to be reformatted for windows i click ok and it opens itunes but nothing happens, iv downloaded the 64 bit itunes as it doesnt like the 32 bit one. Iv ran a diagnostic test on my ipod but cant get past the firewire detect and usb detect maybe this is because i dont have itunes installed at the moment, any suggestions please?

    I had the same problem with my iPod classic. I got a new laptop that has windows 7 and downloaded itunes 9. As soon as itunes 9 was downloaded my ipod would not be recognised anymore. I tried everything like reformatting etc and nothing was helping. What I did was downloaded itunes 7 and my ipod was then recognised. Your problem may be that your software on your ipod is not up to date enough to run on itunes 9 (that was the problem with mine) and may also not be up to date enough to run on itunes 8. Try itunes 7 (or if that doesn't work even itunes 6) then once your ipod is recognised go to the summary page on your ipod and update your software to the current version. Once i did this my ipod was recognised on itunes 9 when i plugged it in and worked perfectly. Hope this helps!
