Can I have 2 Bluetooth connection active at the same time? Works with other phones...

Is it possible to have one Bluetooth connection for "phone audio" and a 2nd connection for "A2DP" music streaming at the same time on my iPhone 5? My car-stereo has Bluetooth for phone calls but NOT for audio streaming. However, there's a 3.5mm aux in on the head unit. On my S5 I can create one Bluetooth connection to the car-stereo and select "phone audio" and a 2nd for my Bluetooth aux-in adapter. It works perfect since months but last week I changed back to an iPhone (5s) and it appears that I can only have ONE BT connection active at a time!?  Any ideas anyone?

Hi SwedelostinAmerica,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
The iPhone can maintain multiple pairing records, but it can only connect to one headset or hands-free device at a time. However, in your situation there may be a solution. You can connect the iPhone via Bluetooth for calls and use the 3.5mm jack on your iPhone and car radio to connect for music.
The following article explains Bluetooth pairing and usage. Please use it as a reference.

    You can have them both on the same computer as I and many others have done for years.
    Just go ahead and install FCS 3 normally.
    There will be absolutely no problems.

  • Can I have 2 browsers open at the same time

    I heard from my friend that I cannot have 2 browsers open at the same time. He said that it will damage the computer. I have an iMac with the intel chip. I do somethings online that I need 2 browsers open for long periods of time. Is this okay?

    Yes of course you can. I have run Safari, Firefox, Chrome and Opera simultaneously.

  • How can I have 2 webpages open at the same time?

    With my previous IP I could have 2 websites open at the same time, useful when making comparisons. I'm sure there must be a way to do this with Firefox but I can't find it.

    Open the first website you want and then click on "file" and then on "new window." Another window will appear so now you have 2 windows on your screen. Reduce the two windows so that they both fit on your screen. Now click on the edge of either window and then on the book mark of the website you want and that website will appear in that window, and do the same thing on the other window for a different book mark, OR type in a different website name in each of the windows and you will get those websites in the respective windows.
    I know...it seems so easy, but I had to ask someone else how to do it too !

  • Can you have more than 3 Bluetooth devices active at the same time?

    I have trouble getting my Sony DR-BT101 to link when my mouse, trackpad, and keyboard (all wireless) are connected. I need to link by stereo headphones for music analysis and cannot get all to work at the same time. My Sony headset either won't pair or connect or causes alert that interfere with the running of other programs during my work. Even when I answer one of the alerts and turn off the Mouse it refuses to connect and finishes with a Stop Using Headset message. Even if I choose "Ignore" instead of turning off the Mouse or Trackpad, same thing. I once had everything working at the same time, so I can't figure out what is going on but it won't honor more than 3 devices, it seems. And also, when a new email arrives in my mailbox (iMac OS Lion 7.1 Mail), the alerts stop popping up and go through 3 iterations as each new email arrives. Weird. Any response on how to deal with this?

    @kalos
    Uninstalled everything PA, also uninstalled mangler which was the only thing that depended on PA. It didn't work anyway.
    No pulseaudio --kill command so I couldn't run.
    Checked systemd journal and there is no mention of PA this time.
    Checked top, and grepped ps aux and there is no PA there either.
    I also rebooted the machine completely just to make sure. However VLC and HTML5 have the same incompatibilities.

  • Can I have 4 videos playing at the same time?

    Ok, here is my dilemma. I use final cut express 4 curently. And I do music videos. As in multitracks. Here is an example of what I do.
    http://youtu.be/vWvyjN8KupU
    ^^skip about 15 sec in to see example^^
    Basically, I want to know if what I do there can be done in Final Cut X. I currently just go into the motion settings. Change the scaling to 50% and then adjust the offset from center to be the lined up. But can that be done in Final Cut X somehow? I usually do clapping before the video, set a marker then line them all up the same way. Delete the audio for the actual video then put in the recorded "good" audio from the mic.
    Anyways, can someone let me know if I can do this? I have not been able to find if "multitracking" is supported on FCPX. I would have many other uses for my video production stuff as well. But I do the multitracking the most. and it would be helpful to use the 4:2:2:4 color codec for my video too.
    Thanks all for the help.

    Sure you could do that pretty much the same as you would have in FC Express. Simply put one track in the Primary Storyline then anchor the others above it and change their scale and offset their position. Ultimately you'll see all angles simultaneously.

  • Can't have multiple videos open at the same time?

    I often start buffering another video when one is finished, so I usually tend to have 3-4 videos open at times. However, about a week ago, the adobe flash plugin would crash. So, I followed this guide:
    http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/The+Adobe+Flash+plugin+has+crashed?style_mode=inproduct
    I also disabled the plugin container. Now, the plugin stops crashing, but firefox stops responding whenever I open a third video. Then, firefox itself crashes. Please help!
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == About a week ago.

    The same thing just happened when I opened a second video instead of a third one.

  • But can you have two libraries open at the same time?

    I have a few libraries stored externally, that I don't acceess much as they have older images, and my main current library. I was wondering whether, with the new management scheme, it would recognize the external libraries as source images, linked to my main library, so that when I'm connected to the external drive, they appear in my main library, fully editable, but when the external is offline, they appear as linked offline previews.
    In other words, will the other libraries be suitable as "other" source folders?

    I don't know if it would quite work like that, but you could import all the projects from those other libraries, then use the new tools to move the master files back to those external drives. Then you would essentially have what you were looking for, which is one central library with some master images held offline in case you needed them later.

    With Firefox 23 and TabMixPlus 0.4.1.0 installed, an additional box is added to the Tabs options panel that allows 3 options for the tab bar:
    *One is to '''Always''' hide the tab bar. I do not know whether future versions of TabMixPlus will remove that option. I have tested in Firefox 23 and it is possible to completely hide the tab bar regardless of the number of tabs open.
    Other options added in the additional box with TabMixPlus 0.4.1.0 are:
    *Never
    *When I have only one tab

  • Can I have diff transacton Variant for the same tcode?

    Hi Experts,
    Can I have diff transacton Variant for the same tcode? If so i will i assign it to diffrent users.?
    Requirement Details:
    I have three diiffrent roles accessing XK02.
    I need to provide diffrent transactions variants for these 3 roles, through Variant groups. How will i do this?
    When i tried to do this, i found that, we need to activate a standard variant for the transaction, which inturn will be default for all these roles. S how will i specify different Transaction variant for diff  roles...
    Please help..
    In the below link i have seen a solution where i need to login into each users profile and set it.
    link: [Variant Groups;
    Thanks,

    The way you explain is strange, I don't understand. You can't assign manually a variant group to a transaction variant, this is done automatically based on the names, maybe you make confusion with assignment between variant group and user?
    A little example:
    Say we have : ZG1 for group 1, and ZG2 for group 2. Transaction is ZT.
    Say user is assigned to group ZG1 by default, and also ZG2 (he may switch to ZG2 using the transaction I mentioned above)
    When user runs ZT transaction, SAP uses automatically ZG1ZT transaction variant (the standard variant is ignored when a transaction variant is found based on variant group). If the user switches to ZG2 variant group, SAP uses automatically ZG2ZT transaction variant.
    If you activate a standard variant, this will taken into account for users which don't have a variant group assigned, or those which transaction variant doesn't exist for variant group + transaction code.
    If it doesn't work as I said, maybe there is a bug, check SAP notes...

    In other words, can I have my screen rotate automatically as I hold my iPad in either portrait or landscape AND hear sounds from my apps at the same time?
    Yes, you can. You can configure the Side Switch (above the volume button) either as Mute switch or Rotation lock.

    Can you have two itunes accounts on the same computer and if so how do you access them without syncing each others music?

    Yes. Use separate iTunes libraries(launch iTunes with the Shift(Windows) or Option(Mac OS X) key held down as needed), or different user accounts on the computer.
