Bluetoothctl successfully pairs with device but cannot connect

Hello,
I'm trying to get my phone (nexus 4) to connect to my computer. I have bluez and bluez-utils installed. I've been able to successfully pair the device with my phone, but I can't connect to it.
Here's some output from bluetoothctl:
$ bluetoothctl

I'm trying to set up my phone to send keyboard input to act as a kind of remote control for pianobar. Does anyone have an idea why this might not connect?

EDIT: I've looked into the problem a little bit more and it seems like it has something to do with audio. I've set the default agent to KeyboardOnly, but the error still persists. Despite this, I've tried installing pulseaudio-git, which hasn't messed anything in my system up just yet, but has done nothing to fix the problem. I also tried reverting to bluez4. bluetoothctl refused to acknowledge hci0 (my device) and wouldn't work, the bluez commands worked somewhat, bluez-simple agent works, but you need to specify hci0 before the address, this works. Any other bluez command will fail. I've reinstalled bluez since (bluez5).

My device is an IX12-300r with 4.08 firmware.  I have 4 volumes setup as iSCSI targets.  Two were the orinigal volumes on the drives that came with the device and are still accessible.  Those are working, fortunately, and still able to be connected as iSCSI targets.  I purchased 4 x 3 TB drives in December and setup two more volumes as iSCSI targets for additional resources on our servers/network.  All worked well with the new volumes/iSCSI targets until 3 weeks ago when the system was restarted.     Now, althoug all the volumes are still present, the iSCSI page on the Web UI shows only the two original volumes are iSCSI targets.  The new volumes are not present there and therefor not accessible from the Microsoft iSCSI initiator.    I've installed the Lenovo Storage Manager for Windows: Version 1.4.4.14439 to check if it could connect the other targets, but sadly no. 
So I called Lenovo to see if I could get some support, knowin that it was out of warranty, and so expecting to pay per incident.  BUT that's no longer available, and they don't offer extended warranties on out of warranty products.  SO BUY an extended warranty NOW if you plan on keeping this product.  Better yet ditch it and get something that offers support beyond "I'm sorry we can't help you at all.  I suggest you call data recovery service if you want your data back".        :- P
Any idea how much it would cost to recover 4 TB of data?!?  
This product is being ruined by Lenovo and their decisions to remove support options previously available.  I would STRONGLY RECOMMEND anyone using these products to think twice!   Also, I'm an IT consultant and have been steering all my clients away from ANY LENOVO products, Thinkpads, Servers, desktops, to avoid runnning into this kind of issues.  My reputation is on the line when I make recommendations to my customers and cannot possibly consider using products with this kind of support.

    You can always manage or configure the switch via HyperTerminal. You can connect the PC to a serial cable and access the switch via the serial port. Hyper Terminal doesn’t depend on the IP address of the switch so you can manage it. To access the switch via Hyper Terminal, follow this link:

  • Spotify Connect & Yamaha Reciever problems - See the device but cannot connect.

    I have a Yamaha RX-V577 reciever with Spotify Connect and update to the last firmware.
    When I try to connect spotify using the Android APP, I see the device but cannot conect to it.
    What are the steps you took to get to the error/issue?
    1. I star a song
    2. Click on the speaker sign with a circle, and click on the receptor (Yahama device).
    3. The grey rounder speaker sign goes from grey to green and the sound waves moves (like tryng to connect).
    4. After a while it goes back to grey.
    IMPORTANT I dont know how sometimes it works, dunno how but after trying alot yesterday It worked. But cannot reproduce it.
     

    I have the EXACT same issue BUT on a Sony STR 1050! It worked fine up until lately. Sometimes I get it to work, but mostly not. When it works, it's very unreliable and often not in synch. 
    It still works absolutely fine with my Computer/Spotify App. I can even tell my PC to use my AVR as sound output and the connect to my PC to listen via my AVR. But connecting directly to my AVR is a PITA. Since more users have the same problem across different AVRs, it seems to be a new Spotify problem and not an issue with my AVR.
    When can we expect that this issue is fixed!? I'm using this feature constantly.

  • IPad successfully paired with iMac, but it says it isn't connected

    It says my device is not connected and on my iMac, it shows the bluetooth connection to the iPad, but has a red dot and it says not connected. How do I connect them. Thanks!

    My iPad isn't house broken, never mind jailbroken. It's a bog standard Gen 2 iPad (no 3g).
    The iMac is by the window, where it's able to pick up a free WiFi signal. The iPad doesn't see the WiFi at all, even when I stand by the window with it. The iMac seems to have a better receiver. That's when I decided to see if I could use the iMac to share its internet connection, and after a bit of mucking around it worked via bluetooth.
    Hope these images help...
    1. iMac SysPrefs 'Bluetooth' tab screen shot
    2. iMac SysPrefs 'Sharing' tab screen shot
    To check "Bluetooth PAN" checkbox on the right, you have to uncheck "Internet Sharing" on the left first. (Re-check it when you're done)

  • Bluetooth paired my devices but not connected

    Hi everyone,
    I have this problem and maybe someone could help.
    Devices to pair
    Blackberry 7100
    GlobalSat Bluetooth GPS BT 338
    I have managed to get them paired and that is where everything starts to "not work". The embarassing thing is that I brought my macbook to the shop that sells the GPS and after telling everyone how cool the macbook is, I couldn't connect the Bluetooth GPS.
    I need the gps for my field assignment and if I can't get it to connect, I'll just use my windows laptop. I still think the mac is cool though and if I can find the solution, I'd feel vindicated.
    Thanks

    Hi:
    There are no dumb questions...answers, yes, but not questions.   Sometime I use acronyms and forget that I should explain things a bit more. 
    Resetting those two things sometimes helps and cannot hurt.

    If that does not help, delete the phone from your computer (system preferences>Bluetooth), restart, and then add it back in:

    P.S.  If everything fails and you are near an Apple store, make an appointment with a "genius" and take the devices in for them to assist.

  • HT1843 hi my bluetooth cannot see the other bluetooth devices. When it is picked up by a different device tries to pair with it but the pairing does not occur. what can I do apart from throwing this **** thing in the bin?

    It isn't supposed to pair with the MacBook.  You can use WiFi to connect but not Bluetooth.  You can setup a personal HotSpot on the iPhone and connect the MacBook, or setup the MacBook AirPort to create a network and attach the iPhone, and use the USB cable to connect the iPhone to the MacBook for syncing and backup purposes.
    The communications are rather limited.

    Hi ..
    Reset the device:
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings
    If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings
    You may have to re enter your Wi-Fi password.
    If nothing above has helped, try here >  iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections

  • My PC can connect to the airport extreme but with encryption it cannot connect to the internet my iMac has no issues, any help.

    My PC can connect to the new airport extreme I just purchased but with encryption it cannot connect to the internet my iMac has no issues.  If I open the airport exteme up and provide no security everything is fine which leads me to believe it is something with the encryption between the two devices.  Not sure what step I'm missing here this shouldn't be this difficult.

    Sorry, I should have been more clear. I am asking if the DNS IP addresses, not the IP addresses assigned by the DHCP service, are the same. DNS is like the Internet's version of the Yellow Pages. Your ISP typically will provide them to you or you can elect to use those provided by another source, like OpenDNS.
    DNS is the service that translates a website's URL to its actual IP address so that you can access it. I am just trying to rule out that the PC is not configured properly with the correct DNS IP information.
    The other thing to check is if the PC is configured to use a Proxy service. By default, it would not be.
    Finally, what is the make & model of the PC. More importantly, if the PC is using either a PCI or USB wireless adapter, what is its make & model?

  • TS1394 how can i get upgrade the ios x v 10.5.8? I purchased an iphone 5 but cannot connect with my macbook 5. I cannot update itune 11 as my ios is not up to date

    how can i get upgrade the ios x v 10.5.8? I purchased an iphone 5 but cannot connect with my macbook 5. I cannot update itune 11 as my ios is not up to date

    Start by checking if you can run Snow Leopard:
    Requirements for OS X 10.6 'Snow Leopard'
    http://support.apple.com/kb/SP575
    OS 10.6 Snow Leopard is once again available from the Apple Store:
    http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
    and in the UK:
    http://store.apple.com/uk/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
    but nobody knows for how long it will be available.
    To use iCloud you have to upgrade all the way to Mountain Lion:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4759
    You can also purchase the code to use to download Lion (Lion requires an Intel-based Mac with a Core 2 Duo, i3, i5, i7 or Xeon processor and 2GB of RAM, running the latest version of Snow Leopard), or you can purchase Mountain Lion from the App Store - if you can run that:

    When you have installed it, run Software Update to download and install the latest updates for Snow Leopard.

  • I have a Power PC G4 which is running on OSX 10.5.8, it has the AirPort utility but cannot connect to the internet as my iMac can, I think I might need an AirPort Card? Is that the case or do I need something different to connect to a wireless modem?

    I have a Power PC G4 which is running on OSX 10.5.8, it has the AirPort utility but cannot connect to the internet as my iMac can, I think I might need an AirPort Card? Is that the case or do I need something different to connect to a wireless modem?

    Welcome!
    Only one variant of the PowerMac G4 could use the faster Airport Extreme Card. The rest used the original Airport card that is pretty slow.
    To get fast wireless without buying more than one thing, consider this:
    http://eshop.macsales.com/item/Edimax/EW7722IN/
    It goes in an available PCI slot
    There are USB solutions also. However, all PowerMac G4 towers had only slower USB 1.1 ports, so any USB wireless adaptor can only run at about wireless 'B" speeds (slow) unless you also install a PCI USB 2.0 adaptor card. Doing that would allow a USB wireless adaptor to run at its maximum rated speed. These items working together would accomplish that:
    USB wireless "dongle:"
    Newer Technology MAXPower 802.11n/g/b USB Adapter + Plug and play direct or with extension cradle
    USB PCI adaptor:
    http://eshop.macsales.com/Search/Search.cfm?Ntk=Primary&Ns=P_Popularity%7c1&Ne=5 000&N=7069&Ntt=USB+PCI
    Each approach has its advantages. The PCI wireless card is a one-piece solution that takes up no desk space. The USB2 card+USB2 Dongle gives you more fast ports for transferring date from other external USB devices (primarily cameras and external hard drives) at hugely faster rates than can the original ports. I have a USB 2 PCI card in my G4 tower strictly for transferring images from my digital SLR camera in a timely manner.

  • TS1277 Devices show 'Cannot connect to Itunes Store' when try to purchase via device, however able to purchase via computer, this has only happened today on both devices iphone and ipad. Purchased a film via ipad yesterday no pronlem. I have tried turning

    Devices show 'Cannot connect to itunes store' when try to purchase via device. However able to purchase via computer therefore password is correct. I purchased a rental film yesterday via ipad so this has just occured today. I've tried rebooting both devices and re sincing with itunes, but the problem remains. I back up via computer not icloud if this makes a difference, which it shouldn't. Any ideas??

    I had this exact issue.  However, I was not even able to "see" the pending downloads when I tried fixing them using the solution above.
    In another thread, I saw that someone mentioned an issue with the use of the "&" (ampersand) symbol in your appleID information.  I had recently changed my name and it did include the & symbol in my name (not the appleID itself).  I replaced the ampersand with the word "and" and saved.  I then went to the iTunes store and logged into my account there and made the same change on my billing name.
    Voila!  I could now access the 7 pending downloads on my desktop Mac and download them, and all iPhone/iPad/Ipods were again able to download from the app store.
    incidentally, I had several support tickets open on this issue and never once did the Apple person even suggest that this might be the issue.

    Hi toeamon,
    Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    Congratulations on the purchase of your new iPhone 6 Plus! The article linked below has a lot of great troubleshooting suggestions that’ll help you resolve the issue connecting to the App Store or iTunes Store on your iOS device.
    Can't connect to the iTunes Store - Apple Support
    Troubleshoot issues on an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
    If you haven't been able to connect to the iTunes Store:
    Make sure your date, time, and time zone are correct in Settings > General > Date & Time.
    Note: Time Zone may list another city in your time zone.
    Make sure that your iOS software is up to date by tapping Settings > General > Software Update (iOS 5 or later) or connecting your iOS device to iTunes and clicking Check for Update on your device's Summary page.
    Check and verify that you're in range of a Wi-Fi router or base station. If you're on a device with cellular service, make sure that cellular data is turned on from Settings > General > Cellular.
    Note: If connected to cellular data, larger items may not download. You may need to connect to Wi-Fi to download apps, videos, and podcasts.
    Make sure that you have an active Internet connection. You can check the user guide for your device for help with connecting to the Internet.
    Make sure that other devices (portable computers, for example) are able to connect to the Wi-Fi network and access the Internet.
    Try resetting (turning off and then on again) your Wi-Fi router.
    If the issue persists, try troubleshooting your Wi-Fi networks and connections.
    Take care,
    -Jason

  • Device Central Cannot Connect

    I'm having two related problems which I've seen posted here before with no real resolution as to cause or solution.
    1. Attempts to connect to the online device library or download a device profile fail with the "Device Central cannot Connect..." message.  To be precise, about 19 out of 20 attempts fail.  Tantalizingly, for reasons I cannot discern, after repeated failures it will connect.
    2. When connected, I can usually download community device profiles but not ones from the Adobe Certified listing.  Except, of course, once.
    The fact that it works intermittently indicates that there is no proxy/router/firewall blocking issue.  All other web functions seem to work.
    System is XP SP3
    Device Central CS5 3.0.1.0  installed with PhotoShop CS5
    I have deleted the Adobe Device Central CS5 directory in order to create a new one with no effect on the problem.
    I have unsuccessfully used both context menus and drag-and-drop methods of initiating downloads.
    Has anyone managed to fix this problem?

    Having the same problem, though I can't get it to connect even once. I just started researching the problem tonight - no solution yet...
    I'm on Windows 7 Pro 64-bit, Production Premium CS 5.5.
    I've got no other internet issues, Adobe update works fine.
    Please - Anybody have an idea how to troubleshoot this problem?
    Thank you.
