Cannot pair bluetooth speaker with iPhone 6

My JBL Chrome worked perfectly with my iPhone 5. Now the iPhone 6 will not pair with the speaker, yet I'm able to pair the phone with my car (Infiniti Q50).The guy at the Apple store told me it likely is a bug in ios8. Is this true? Do I have to wait for several updates to restore former functionality. I'm disappointed.

I would try to reset the speaker. If you were able to pair it with the iPhone 5, and you activated the 6 from a backup of the 5, the speaker may be "confused" with a device of the same name. Also, the speaker may not be able to pair with more than one device and needs to be reset. Check the speaker's user guide to see how to reset the device and then put it into discovery/pairing mode again. Then attempt to pair with the phone.

HT2995 Trouble Pairing Bluetooth speaker with Mac Mini

I can't seem to get the Bluetooth on my Mac Mini to recognize my LG wireless speakers (though the Bluetooth on my iPad recognizes the LG wireless speakers). Any thoughts on how to correct this?
The Mac Mini simply does not seem to recognize that the LG speaker exists. I know the LG speaker is in Bluetooth discxoverable mode, as my iPad sees it.

You do have the iPad's BT turned off, right, when you try to pair with the Mac?
Better yet, on the iPad make sure the speakers are unpaired-removed, and then try pairing with your mini.

Suddenly, I cannot sync my Boselink with iPhone. Iphone 4s says Bose sound...not connected. I JUST updated software to iOS 6.1.3. Why isn't this working? I can not play pandora on my Bose.

They are absolutely now paired after doing all you said, as I reset both the Bose Link and the Iphone. Now we have a pair, but no sound on the speaker or the iphone when they are connected. I know they are connected b/c the iphone says they are in the blue tooth setting AND the Bose has a solid blue tooth light on.
Now what? This is beyond frustrating and only happened when I UPDATED ios!
Thank you!

I cannot connect bluetooth between an iPhone 3GS and iPhone 4.

I cannot connect bluetooth between an iPhone 3GS and iPhone 4S. Any reasons this might be happening? Any suggestions on how to fix it? Thank you.

To access iCloud all your iPhone needs is iOS 5 or later and an Internet connection, either via cell service or WiFi. Then just set up iCloud with the same Apple ID and password you've been using on your iPhone 4.
You might want to consider just getting your iPhone 4 replaced by Apple. Based on the prices I've seen for iPhone 3GS units, Apple's replacement price isn't that much more, and you'll be certain of getting a working, non-hacked iPhone. Apple's replacement price for the iPhone 4 is US $149.

I use a bluetooth headset with iPhone 5 but when I ask Siri to read my email she says I must unlock my phone first. If I take the phone out of my pocket I might as well just read the email then. Is there a way to fix this?

I use a bluetooth headset with iPhone 5 but when I ask Siri to read my email she says I must unlock my phone first. If I take the phone out of my pocket I might as well just read the email from the phone screen. Is there a way to fix this so the phone doesn't have to be unlocked?

Apple, as I'm sure you know, now manage official phone 'unlocks' directly rather than the Newtork doing so.
When a GSM Network Provider buys a consignment of iPhone's they are locked to that carrier and may only be officially unlocked if said carrier requests it. If so, it is Apple who do this, via iTunes.
I am therefore inclined to think that part of the any generic iTunes syncing process involves the transmission of key hardware data, including IMEI, to Apple whenever the handset is synced.
If this is the case and, as each iTunes account is linked to a credit card, were Apple to maintain a database of genuinely stolen phones (ones reported to Police) they could advise said Police force when a stolen phone stuck its metaphorical head over the parapets once again? They would be able to identify the name & address of the new user.
I have spoken to the Police here in Ireland today and they regularly engage with Apple on such matters.
This may not be tracking as we know it Jim, (not using GSM Triangulation or GPS) but it's arguably even more targetted and leaves an indelible fingerprint of guilt on the thief.
The laws here are simple in this regard, if you are in possession of stolen property, knowlingly or otherwise, you forfeit the goods once the Police show up. Whether you get prosecuted depends on whether you stole the goods or were duped into purchasing them.

Cannot pair bluetooth with iPhone

Hi!
I am trying to pair my Macbook Pro (10.6.4) with my iPhone (3GS, iOS4.0.2) via bluetooth in order to get internet tethering to work.
When I initiate the pairing from the Macbook, the "Bluetooth Setup Assistant" finds my iPhone, attempts to pair and shows me in big numbers the code. On the iPhone, an alert pops up to confirm that "...woult like to pair with your iPhone" and to confirm the passkey is the right one.
I now press "Pair" on the iPhone, and a few seconds later an alert pops up, saying "Could not pair with ..."
I can pair different devices to my Macbook (keyboard, mouse,...) and also the iPhone pairs without problems with a company Dell laptop, just Apple with Apple seems not to work.
Rebooted both Mac and iPhone, no success. And, no, the iPhone is not jailbroken.
Does anyone have any idea how to get this to work? Thanks lot!!
Cheers,
Hendrik

IPhone 4S will not pair or connect to Bluetooth since IOS 7.1.2 upgrade, have done troubleshooting, on phone and with Honda Handsfree link, can no longer pair bluetooth devices with phone after un-pairing them

iPhone 4S upgraded to IOS 7.1.2. Since then, Honda Handsfreelink would not connect, I un-paired and re-paired phone on 2 prior occasions successfully. Now I deleted system settings in car, tried to pair another BlueTooth (Plantronices M20 that had previously been paired wtih iPhone unsuccessfully. I have tried troubleshooting with Honda HFL, Verizon Tech Support, reset network settings on phone and I can no longer get the Bluetooth to pair. I was told to bring phone to VZW store. I was also told to reset phone to default settings which I do not want to do.

You have to reset the plantronics device before you can pair successfully. With my new iPhone the plantronics web site said to reset the headset and then pair.
Your car dealership is best equipped to connect to your phone with your Honda. Physically go to the dealership.
Good Luck

Cannot pair Bluetooth with 2008 BMW - 'Uncaught exception: java.lang.Classcast Exception' message

I have been trying to pair my 8100 with my new 2008 model BMW 135i built in car kit using Bluetooth set up. The phone finds the car kit and the two appear to pair (confirmation numbers entered etc) but then the Smartphone screen freezes and the following error message appears 'Uncaught exception: java.lang.Classcast Exception'. The phone cannot then receive or make calls (won't even turn off until battery removed). Have been through the whole process several times. The car will pair with other phones and my 8100 will pair OK with other devices. Can anyone help?
Thanks, Paul.

I have got aorund the problem by disabling address book transfer. I can now receive calls and make outgoing calls by either dialling on the blackberry itself or using the BMW idrive controller. It is better than nothing and my main use anyway is for incoming calls while driving. The whole idea of the integrated system was to be able to scroll through the address book on the steering wheel buttons and view the address book entries on the satnav screen.
I have had similar problems in the past with an integrated system in a Porsche. The Blackberry never establised bluetooth contact with that system at all.

Bluetooth problems with iPhone 3G

Does anyone know why my iPhone 3G will only find some bluetooth devices and not others? Since i got it i have only been able to successfully pair with my Samsung bluetooth ear piece.
Cheers

What devices are you trying to pair with? Note that the iPhone only supports protocols for voice and music, not for file sharing - so, you cannot pair with other phones, computers, etc. (except for tethering, if your carrier supports that).

Pairing bluetooth speaker

I have a new Kakkoi WOW speaker. I can pair it with my iphone 5, but when I try to pair it with my computer I get this error message:
"The pairing attempt was unsucessful. Make sure your headset is in range of this computer, turned on, and discoverable.When ready click Connect to try again."
There's no option to use it as a speaker, and it automatically picks "headset". Also, I'm running os x 10.5.8

1. Clear the memory of the Bluetooth speaker
2. Make sure all Bluetooth devices nearby are turned off
3. Make sure speaker are within range of device
4. Turn speaker off and on again
5. Make sure it's not muted

Creative d200 bluetooth speaker with the Z10

I've been using this great little speaker in the kitchen for a while now, with:-
Torch 9800 / 9810
Playbook
Works fine on them, but the Z10 wont play ball. I know the phone works with the blackberry media bluetooth in the car, and streams fine. Finds an 'audio device' but sits there for a while and refuses to pair.
Any ideas?
Martin
Annoying I-fone boys, one feature at a time.

Hey deuxflower,
Welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums.
Thanks for the question.
What version of BlackBerry 10 are you currently running? This can be found under Settings>About. Also is the Bluetooth speaker in pairing mode when you're trying to connect to it? Try removing the battery from the BlackBerry Z10 and place it back in and try to pair.
I look forward to your reply.
Cheers.

Bluetooth issues with iPhone 5

Is anyone experiencing connection issues since updating? Since updating iPhone 4 w/iOS 6 I've been experiencing Bluetooth connectivity with VW Jetta 2012. Now I have the iPhone 5 & it's still an issue. Which leads me to believe its the iOS 6 update. It works and then it doesn't. Very frustrating. And in most cases it connects but allows no controls using car stereo as before. All you see is "Bluetooth audio" on car stereo dash.

My Harman Kardon BT Headphones keep cutting out intermittently. I found that the music would stop streaming to the headphone but it would continue playing on the phone. To get the music back I had to keep pressing the play button on both my iphone and headphone and it would eventually come back. Is it an issue with the 5 or is it my new headphones?
Had issues too. RESET my Jawbone Icon per online PDF and removed from iPhone and re paired no problem now.
