Bluetooth problems help

I have paired my iphone to the computer but for whatever reason it will not let me connect to use it. I don't know if there is something else I am not doing. It says that it paired correctly...please help.

Yes I know it well.  I flashed the -400 version (E71-2) with still no success.  I have a 2007 Acura TL.  Your HFL system is identical to mine (BT s/w version and HFP version).  The nice people at www.handsfreelink.com can do nothing until Nokia and JCI agree to test the phones and post the results.
What I am about to share with you is a very lame work-around, but it has worked for me for a year consistently.
1.  Pair the phone.
2.  Incoming calls should work fine once paired (you should see BATT and Signal LVL)
3.  I was unable to load the contacts into the NAVI with that phone so I can not help you there.
4.  Turn-on the "Show Call Duration" on your phone.  Menu>Settings>Calling
5.  Place all calls FROM THE HANDSET (Voice activate if that works for you which is safer)
6.  Look for Connection.  When the call connects you will see a timer beginning to increment 00:00.
7.  When you see the timer display, select the right shortcut key that says Bluetooth.  There will be a 2-3 second delay but you will be handed off to your car kit speakers with full volume control from the stereo system.
8.  You can hang up with the steering wheel control or using the phone.
The E72 is marginally better.  The T-mobile based Nokia 7510 works very well and the Nokia N900 also works (both use BT v2.1) although both phones are aligned with T-Mobile UMTS frequencies.  Nokia's implementation of BT version 2.1 may solve the problem but only time will tell.

  • Nokia 5700Xm Bluetooth problem Help Me !!!!!!

    Dear frnds im using Nokia 5700XM, two days ago suddenly my phone Bt. got prob. it cant send files via Bt but it can recieve all kind of files..... plz help me Help me.

    Firstly check that there are no proxy set-ups in your browser, go in Internet Exploerer to tools, connections, LAN settings and make sure all the tick boxes are deselected.
    Also check your phone has the correct APN, go on the phone to tools, settings, connection, access point in use and set it to the default as per your operator, Usually it is just "internet"
    If all else fails, try install another browser like Firefox or Google Chrome and see if they give you the same issues.

  • How to Solve Wi-Fi or Bluetooth Problems on your iOS Device?

    Do you have any problem with Wi-Fi and Bluetooth on your iOS Device? Please read these steps carefully and follow it!
    These Steps that I am sharing are TESTED by 10 iOS users what had problems with Wi-Fi or Bluetooth or both and was successful
    - Please note that Resetting/Factory Resetting/Hard Resetting or Recovering or un-jailbreaking your device will not work at all -
    To Solve Wi-Fi Problems Follow these steps (But before doing anything please restart your iOS Device and see if you still have network problems):
    Step 1 Go to Settings > General > Reset > Rest Network Settings and Reset your Network Settings and wait until your device re-boots
    Step 2 Go to Settings > Wi-Fi and see if you can connect to your Wi-Fi If you can't then go to next step
    Step 3 Go to Settings > Airplane Mode and turn on Airplane Mode and shut down your device. Go to your network provider and ask to restart the Modem or do it your self (Just unplug power cord and plug it back in) You have to wait 30 seconds.
    Step 4 Boot your device and go to Settings > Airplane Mode and this time turn if off and go to Wi-Fi and see if you can connect it again. If you can't then go to next step - Note: If you are going on to Step 5 it means that your device is experiencing Critical System Error that cannot be fixed easily -
    Step 5 Go your laptop/desktop and open your browser then type this on the webpage search bar 192.168.0.1 and click enter. If it doesn't work then go and ask your network provider for an address for your modem/internet settings.
    Step 6 Change your modem/internet settings to no password and make it "available/visible for everyone" and go to your iOS device and got to Settings > Wi-Fi and see if it works this time. If it still doesn't work go to next step - Note: If you are going on to the next step it means you are experiencing Critical System Error that had been cause by glitch/bug -
    Step 7 Connect your iOS Device to iTunes on your laptop/desktop and update your iOS version -Note: this process if basically re-installing your operating system- If you can't update if because the new update if not available you have to wait for next update unfortunately
    Step 8 After updating your iOS Device Go to Settings > Wi-Fi and see if it connects to your Wi-Fi. It normally fixes the problem but if it still doesn't, it means your device is experiencing hardware problem. Visit your local Apple Retail Store or reseller and ask them for complimentary/device-exchange/warranty help or go to Apple website for online support: www.apple.com/support/ for better support.
    To Solve Bluetooth Problem all you need to do is resetting (not factory resetting) your device and see if it works, if it doesn't you will need to update your iOS or Google for more technical troubleshooting because it could be your pairing device's problem. Visit www.apple.com/support/ for better support.
    If anyone of you had these experiences and was successful troubleshooting please do share your experience. I will also be avaliable to answer your questions if you have one! Please do share your openions about my post if you have one

    If you don't mind, would you do that for me please?

  • Bluetooth problems all around - Modem in the first row.

    Hi there,
    I've got a really annoying problem with the Bluetooth Setup of my Mac. Like you can see in my system description, I use Mac OS X 10.5.6. For a long time I used my old mobile via Bluetooth and GPRS as a Modem. Now it was time for a change. I bought a new mobile which supports 3G (Nokia 5800 Xpress Music).
    I used the Bluetooth Wizard and told him to use all possible bluetooth functions of my device. I looked in the internet for the right configuration (APN, CID,...) and choosed to use the Nokia GPRS/3G Modem script which is preinstalled in Mac OS X (I also tried another one from www.taniwha.org.uk, it didn't work either).
    The very strange thing is, the first connection worked without any problem, but after disconnecting and reconnecting it didn't work anymore. Instead I've got a message that the RFCOMM-Channel can't be opened.
    I tried to fix the problem myself by searching wrong settings in some plists, but although I restored the original settings after recognizing that my changes didn't work, I've got a new problem.
    Now the status symbol of the bluetooth modem always shows up that no modem configuration could be found, although I can still try to connect via Network -> Bluetooth. Of course it doesn't work this way too.
    Sometimes the bluetooth modem works once after a reboot ( not after every reboot ). But only once!
    File Transfer always works! The Nokia Multimedia Transfer also always works.
    I definitely need advice of some of you, experts.
    I'd love to hear from you!

    Hi,
    sorry, but the problem isn't solved yet. I tried different things but nothing helped:
    I backuped and deleted the following Files:
    /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration/Preferences.plist
    /Library/Preferences/com.apple.Bluetooth.plist
    /Users/benutzername/Library/Preferences/ByHost/com.apple.BluetoothHASH.plist
    But it didn't help. In fact it made things worse. Therefore I restored the backuped files.
    I deleted all bluetooth devices and installed just my new phone a bunch of times. - No change at all.
    I used FSEventer to control the Filesystem Access. That leaded me only to the files mentioned above.
    In the log-file:
    /private/var/log/ppp.log
    is the following error message logged:
    Failed to open /dev/cu.Bluetooth-Modem: Resource busy
    Up until now, I don't understand why this resource is busy.
    I figured out, that the modem works using a USB-connection. That isn't a satisfying solution but it works for now.
    Nevertheless I am still really interested in resolving the Bluetooth problem.

  • Airport & Bluetooth problems after 10.4.7 update

    (Note: I posted this in the Tiger forums and after no response, thought I'd try here.)
    Greetings,
    After updating to 10.4.7, my iMac G5 20" iSight exhibits occasional loss of signal strength in the Airport and poor or lost Bluetooth connections with the wireless keyboard and mouse.
    The Airport and Bluetooth problems happen together at the same time. I can see the Airport signal strength drop and seconds later the mouse starts becoming slow and I usually lose connectivity with my keyboard. After about 10 minutes, signal strength returns on both.
    The system is well isolated from interference, the cordless phone is a 5 ghz unit, and all cellphones have been removed from the room, but the symptoms continue. The wireless G router is only 3 meters away in the same room.
    I reapplied the combo 10.4.7 updater, repaired permissions, cleaned caches using Applejack, zapped the PRAM and reset the SMU but the problem still happens.
    Any suggestions? It is driving me crazy.
    Thanks in advance for any help.

    I'll add a "here, here". I have a 20" iMac G5 (1.8 GHZ). Since applying 10.4.7 I have had Bluetooth disappear twice. Disappear as in: keyboard and mouse no longer function and the bluetooth icon in the menu bar disappears. Power cycle works to recover the system. A far from elegant workaround.

  • To Nokia - Bluetooth problems or 6300 and 3110

    Dear Nokia,
    Please, please you are killing everyone with your Nokia bluetooth phone incompatiblity.
    What do you guys intend to do?
    Do you acknowledge there is a problems.
    I bought a 6300 when I lost the best Nokia ever phone 6230i.
    The bluetooth connectivity is appalling.. Echoes and cut outs plague the receiver of your call.
    So far bought BH200 useless, HS26W Jabras do not work, and BH100 does not work.
    I then thought it was the phone, but so bought another 6300 it also has the same problems.
    I then bought the 3110 classic which actually has a lovely keyboard layout. The phone is great, but the bluetooth problems are the same/ slightly better.
    Nokia Uk are not helpful... They just say return the phone to o2. They live in denial...curse on their houses.
    Nokia has beeen very sloppy on this bluetooth issue. They will kill their business. They have lost my loyalty...
    I am now faced with buying a Samsung. Sonys are terrible and Blackberrys are too small to use in a moving car.
    My hi-tech friend says it is incompatible bluetooth software on the phone. Nothing you can do till NOkia acknowledge the problem and send out a new patch..
    Edit: removed e-mail addressMessage Edited by scousermodman on 25-Sep-2007 11:10 AM

    I am also having the same problem.
    I have a 6300 and a Samsung WEP150 headset.
    The headset works fine with My SonyEricsson W810i and I can also transfer contacts between the W810i and the Nokia 6300 using bluetooth but for some reason the 6300 can't see the headset.
    Seems like Nokia haven't got thier bluetooth implementation quite right (At this point it seems the most likely cause). If they can provide a solution I'll be very happy to be wrong.
    I'll let you know if I find a solution.

  • MBP late 2007 startup problem - Help!

    I have an MBP from Nov. 07 that only displays the magnifying glass search icon upon startup. When I restarted in safe mode, I download the latest firmware update and installed it carefully following the instructions. When my computer automatically restarted, it still only displayed the magnifying glass search icon. So here I am in safe mode, without a clue what to do to fix my poor MBP. Help!

    If it starts up fine in "safe" mode, amandamuses, it is very unlikely to be a hardware issue (though there are a couple of situations where airport card or bluetooth problems can cause such things) .
    If it isn't directory corruption, (follow the process with Disk Utility suggested by PBookie but "Repair Disk" as well as "repairing permissions"), then my next step, before checking things like RAM, would be an "Archive and Install" of the OS. THis will usually resolve situations where a computer will start in "Safe" mode , but not in the normal fashion.
    If you have any peripherals attached (especially third party keyboards or mice, USB hubs, external hard drives etc) you should also disconnect them while you are "troubleshooting".
    Cheers

  • Water and macbook air- bluetooth problem

    I spilt a whole glass of water over my macbook air, I dried it off and put it straight in the airing cupboard for 5 days. When I came to turn it on I could hear a high pitched buzzing noise coming from the top of the keyboard. I powered down and performed a SMC reset and it came back on with no noise. Everything seems to be working now apart from the bluetooth. Have I got lucky?- if I take it to Apple about the bluetooth problem will they blame water damage, is it any easy fix?
    Thanks

    Thanks Linc.  Tried all of that but still nothing.  I can't help get the feeling that it's me doing something stupid but I've never had this problem with my iPhones, iPads or iMacs.

  • Bluetooth problem & restoring system software

    i am running a ppc mini with built-in bluetooth module that stopped working shortly after i bought it. i have been doing a lot of research into the 'missing bluetooth' problem which may be the result of an os update, judging by what other users report.
    the bluetooth symbol in the menu bar has the squiggly line through it, and clicking on it reveals 'bluetooth: not available'. to try and resurrect this bluetooth module i have tried the following: restarting, repair permissions, using disk utility, using tech tool, resetting the pmu, resetting the pram, deleting the 'system configuration' folder in ~/Library/Preferences... but it's still dead.
    someone has suggested that i could restore the system software, and this is where i need some advice:
    apparently the bluetooth system driver may be missing which could be reinstalled with the system restore. the mini originally shipped with 10.3.x, which i updated to 10.3.9, then last month upgraded to 10.4.x and used the recent update to reach 10.4.8, which is what i'm currently using (i haven't yet updated to 10.4.9 amidst the problems people have been reporting - i have enough problems to worry about!).
    do i restore my original 10.3.x software which shipped mith my mini, or do i restore the 10.4.x software to which i have upgraded? and in either case must i use a system restore disk which came with the mini, or software which is available for download?
    any help would be greatly appreciated. lee.

    Have you ever considered that the problem is hardware and not software?
    However, if you wish to restore your system from scratch you will have to do so from whatever system disks you have, 10.3 or a retail set of 10.4 disks which is what I am guessing you used to update to 10.4 in the first place.

  • Nokia 6234 Bluetooth problem

    Basically, it wont turn on.
    I got the phone about a month ago, and at first the bluetooth worked fine. Then, I came to use it, and whenever I try to turn it on, on the connectivity screen, it wont turn on, no matter how many times I press the ok button.
    Oh, and at one point, I locked myself out of my phone, and had to get the PUK code. I dont know whether that could have affected it at all.
    Any help on this problem would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks

    Hey people i bought one of these nokia 6234 about 3 months ago and just recently i am experiencing the exact same bluetoothe problems as described here,anyway i tried turning the fone on and off a few times then the bluetoothe connected,but this didnt seem to work for long and it kept disconnecting,so i took it and all my bluetooth accessories to a vodafone shop twice and they told me that it has to be sent off to vodafone for maufactures warranty repairs which will probably take 2 months thats vodafone for you !! so i m not going to bother apparently vodafone thinks its internal software probably.

  • Mini Bluetooth Problems - Dongle instead?

    Given that the new Mini has old Mini Bluetooth problems (and no solution in sight from any Apple folks), anyone have luck or solutions for disabling the internal 'radio' and using an external BT Dongle (say, D-Link)? When I turn BT off, and plug the dongle in, nothing happens - even after a reboot.

    Well, - I'm having the same problem as described in the first post. The N97 mini connects flawlessly with some PCs, headsets, and handsfree car systems.
    I disagree with the purpose of remote SIM mode as before mentioned. Remote SIM access is to support the rSAP (remote SIM access profile) installed in some premium handsfree systems (like in my Skoda Superb) and basically lets the handsfree system 'steal' your SIM, including PIN etc. over BT for use with its own built in phone.
    But in my new Mazda MX-5 I am having trouble to place calls with the handsfree car system. It is not a rSAP capable system and I have tried with and without rSAP in the N97 mini enabled, to no avail.
    The N97 mini pairs fine and I can receive incoming calls. Also, I can place calls from the device itself, but when I try to place a call over the car's handsfree system it basically freezes for a few minutes before the car system throws an error. During these minutes I can see on the car display that it looses connection to the phone, albeit the N97 mini still shows connected state. Once these 1 or 2 minutes have passed, the phone shows disconnected, and then reconnects immediately. By experimenting a bit, I found that when I change the BT visibility, from not visible to visible or vice versa, during those minutes, the phone catches up with the number and dials.
    And yes, my N97 mini is on the latest FW (12.0.110).
    It's a pity that this problem is obviously already so old, that I have little hope Nokia is going to fix it. My old 6600i slide, and my wifes 6131 are working like a charm, unfortunately I need the N97 mini to work for other reasons ...
    Despite I don't know if the N8 would work, it's not an option since it's not supported by PC Suite anymore, thus doesn't synchronize with Lotus Notes, which is what I need at work.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated ... thanks
