Bluetooth to Phone: Pairing, but not working properly.

Hey everyone. I am the owner of a Black MacBook and a Sony Ericsson W850i, which until recently, both worked fine with each other using bluetooth. Now, however, even though the devices are properly paired, I cannot use 'browse my device' to browse my phone from my MacBook, nor can I send files to my phone. The message I get is "Failure to establish connection to device." According to my Mac and Phone, both of them have OBEX Object Push and File Transfer in their services list. In the advanced tab of the Bluetooth Settings, I have one serial port named "Bluetooth-PDA-Sync." It is on and the type is set to "modem." Under "Edit Serial Ports" for my phone in the Bluetooth Preferences, I have three ports. One generic one, one OBEX File Transfer and one OBEX Object Push. Any ideas what could be causing the problem? All support is greatly appreciated! Thanks.

If your phone has worked before, try to do this:
1. Shut down your Mac
2. Disconnect power and battery.
3. Press power button for 10-15 sec.
4. Put all together and try to pair the two again.
Sometimes this is all it takes.
Also, have you upgraded your software, recently? That may have caused the problem.
Note: According to this link (http://www.apple.com/macosx/features/isync/) your phone may not be supported. I don't see W850i on the list. I had the same problem with RAZR. Mac supports v3x but not v3xx.

  • Ios7.0.1 bluetooth connectivty with car stereo not working properly?

    I have updated my Iphone to Ios7.0.1  Before this update connection between my Iphone and car stereo was not an issue.
    Now the only way to play music through this device is to use the iphone. Select track, volume, Etc the hands free buttons on the sterring wheel do not work. I think you will agree this is not acceptable, convenient , or safe to drive. However the phone call option is working perfectly as before. My vehicle is a 6 month old Jaguar XF I have contacted them and they have inspected my car and have assured me the problem is not with my car audio equipment.
    I am a little reticent to do a factory reset on my iphone until all avenues of trouble shooting have been exhausted.
    Can anyone help, advise, or even been experiencing the same problem/

    I have a similar problem with my XF.  I upgraded to 7.0.2 and deleted all my paired devices in the car and on my phone. 
    I reapired the phone and all seemed fine - I could happily make/receive calls.  However the phone will NOT connect to the audio part of the XF and will not play any music or connect via Bluetooth to Audio.  I can see the phone and try and connect but I get the message that the Audio connection has failed.  The phone continues to work normally through the phone setup.
    Previously you could effectively connect a device as a phone and a device as an audio device (or the same device to both phone and audio) but this is no longer possible with IOS7 it seems.  My wife and my son also have iphones upgraded to IOS7 and they cannot connect to audio either. 
    I have tried rebooted, resetting, deleting all settings etc, etc but I am having no luck.
    ANy further help greatfully received.  My XF is a 63 plate and just over a month old.

  • Pioneer dvr-110d installed but not working properly

    hello,
    i'm new to the forum. i just purchased a pioneer dvr-110d for my my powermac g4 466mhz. it plays dvds correctly but the only thing that it doesnt do is load my osx 10.4 disc. i got the drive so i can install software without borrowing an external drive (i needed to reload my 10.4 because of other errors) so everytime i put the 10.4 disc in it reads it and says to restart but when that happens it restarts to a gray and sometimes blue screen. so the only way i get the disc back out is with restarting with the shift key held down and then i can force eject it. you guys are my last hope. it seems to working fine except with the startup disc. which is so strange to me.. and the system profiler recognizes it also

    Hi
    When you installed the drive, did you set the jumper block on the left rear of the drive to "Master"?
    Have you set Energy Saver to sleep NEVER & unchecked HDD sleep?
    Have you tried starting up w/ the "C" key?
    Have you tried updating the drive firmware? Search Discussions for DVR-110, there are many threads with links to updating on a Mac.
    Assuming you've also tried cleaning the install DVD, and updating firmware makes no difference, you should try booting from some other installer CD/DVD, to confirm that the drive is bootable; if it will not boot ANY installers, I would return it.
    EDIT: you may want to also try
    resetting PRAM & NVRAM, always a good idea when replacing hardware.

  • Magic mouse paired  but not working

    My new magic mouse installed ok and paired up ok . The pointer moves around but when you click nothing happens. The icons on the dock raise up when you move over them but nothing opens up.

    Just one thought. The new Magic Mouse comes with tape and packing material that prevents clicking. Make sure that all tape and wrapping materials have been removed. They are transparent and sometimes hard to see.

  • My iphone 6 connects to the car via bluetooth, the music works good, but the phone calles does not work.  It looks like it is working but doesn't.  I have tried in my Hyundai and a Dodge rent car and get the same results.  I updated the last 8.0.2.

    My iphone 6 connects to the car via bluetooth, the music works good, but the phone calls does not work.  It looks like it is working but doesn't.  I have tried in my Hyundai Sonata and a Dodge Dart rent car and get the same results.  I updated the last 8.0.2.  It worked the first day i had the phone, and then i updated to Ios 8.0.2 and it quit working.
    Now when i get in the car, it acts like it is connected and makes the same call it was on after syncing to bluetooth, but it really isn't on a call.  This is happening on both cars.
    Does anyone know if this is the phone and i need to take it to Apple or if there is an issue that Apple is working on getting a fix for?
    My son in law has the exact same phone as me, we both got the on 10/6, he had a Dodge Dart and his is working via bluetooth.
    Someone HELP please, as i consider this a safety issue by not having my calls go to bluetooth.

    We had the same problem, but figure out the solution.
    You MUST have at least 1 song added to your ITUNE!  After you add a free song, then everything else should work as normal!
    Hope this helps!

  • The head phone jack on my brand new iPod touch 5th generation is not working properly

    The head phone jack on my brand new iPod touch 5th generation is not working properly. It has sound without the headphones in but when I plug them in it has no sound, it's low, or poppy. I had only used my apple supplied headphones once before and it worked fine. I know it's not the headphones because I tried them on my girlfriends phone and they worked fine.

    - Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so. There is a little switch in the headphone jack that disconnects the speaker when the headphone jack is inserted.
    Try the following to rule out a software problem
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be 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.
    - Reset all settings
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. Seems you have a bad headphone jack.

  • After updating iso 6.1.3 in my 4s my phone is not working properly

    After updating iso 6.1.3 my 4s is not working properly the main problem is touch is not working properly and battery problem also there pls anyone have some solution

    IOS 6 has had a lot of issues to date. I have a possible solution to offer but I cannot  be sure it will work. Two ideas.
    1. Reset the phone: hold the lock button and home button in at the same time for 10 seconds. This does nit erase anything, it's basically like rebooting a computer.
    2. Factory reset: Hook up to a computer and go to iTunes. Sync the phone (if possible). Once synced, in the summary screen select factory reset (or may be another name, I'm working from memory) it's right beside update software. This will completely reset the phone, you will need to restore it after the reset it complete. I don't know if this will help you, but it may. I hope you can fix it, good luck!!!

  • I phone 3gs home button is not working properly

    Hi Folks..
    From the last few days my I phone 3GS is giving me a hard time.. Its HOME BUTTON is not working properly. Have to press it 2-3 times and have to press it hard to make it work. I am now running 5.1 iOS, it had the same problem with 5.0.1 iOS too. Can you suggest me what to do??? Do i need to take it to the service centre????

    I've just noticed this too, after updating my 3GS to iOS 5.1.  It seems to be happening off and on, but it is more of a problem when the phone has set locked and idle for a few minutes.
    I usually wake it from sleep with the power button, unlock it, and wait for the ability to use the home button.
    It might be worth it to take it to the Genius Bar or at least try to live chat with Apple Customer Service.
    I feel your pain.
