Connecting Bluetooth to car

Just discovered another very annoying thing.. When I am in my car, and I select "Bluetooth" from the car, the Z10 automatically starts playing audio files from my Z10's music folder , which happens to contain all my ringtones.
I have to go into my phone and close out the music folder to make it stop.If I toggle through the input devices on my car, and back to Bluetooth again, once again, the music folder opens up, and starts playing my ringtones. What the heck is up with that ?
Anyone else experience this ?

Well I took my concern to the Bell store today, who in turn , handed me over to Bell support , upon which I was transferred to Rimm Level 1 support, he agreed there was a problem, then I was put through to RImm Level 2 support, and finally Rimm Level 3 support, upon which they were mostl helpful in my problems. She agreed there is a problem, and she had me create a log report of my phone, which I emailed to Rimm, and after an hour or so reviewing it, said yes, there is a problem, but arent sure of the fix yet. They are going to contact Honda tomorrow, as this is a problem between my Z10 and my 2012 Civic, and they are going to figure out why there is a problem , as they stated , this is a brand new software, and new operating system, and there could be bugs which havent been found yet.. I have to say I am highly impressed with Rimm's customer support, as I was amazed in the lengths they went through with me to try and correct this problem.
They are going to call me back tomorrow, and check in with me, and keep me updated on the status of the diagnosis. I have no doubts, they will figure it out. Hats off to RImm. !!!

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!

Since updating to iOS 5, my bluetooth and signal have been destroyed. Before the update, the phone worked perfectly, connecting to my bluetooth in car for both calls and music. Reception was also perfect. Now, my bluetooth doesnt work, and I cant be heard

Since I updated my iphone 4 software from 4.3.3/4.3.5 - bought brand new only 2 weeks before the update came out - to iOS 5, my bluetooth no longer works in me ford fiesta and when I ring people, they literally can not hear a word I say. It has nothing to do with poor signal areas as they are the same areas I was in with the same phone before the software update! i have even sent for a replacement phone and received a reconditioned phone (after paying excess charge - JOKE!) and the same problem occured when I updated again. I cannot believe there is no downgrade as this iOS 5 is a shambles and to be honest, I see very little difference in terms of apps and photos so i have no idea why apple are recommending this upgrade!
Is there anything I can do to improve the fact that nobody can hear me on the phone when I speak?!! Or are apple going to insist I keep a phone that is of no use to me if I can't actually use it as a PHONE!
Please please help!

Hi,
Thanks! I forgot to add, I have debonded and rebonded the bluetooth in car and phone and have carried out 3 restores on the phone in my ITunes. All to no avail. I have also jsut spent £40 on a lead from Ford that has made no difference too! I went to them today to request a software upgrade on my car as I though perhaps the lack of connectivity in the car was down to the car being behind the iOS5 software but was informed there was no need for an upgrade and this problem is purely an apple problem! Is there any way around the downgrade? Or are apple gong to resolve this problem at all??

My home wireless is no longer recognized, even going through the set-up process. It does not connect to the car through Bluetooth seamlessly--I have to add my phone as a new device each time I get in the car. In attempting to solve these problems I have gone to settings-phone-upgrade and it states that the upgrade is available-select to continue-(which I do)- it checks -please wait and it then states that update not available - try later.

Maybe not too late to help you.
For specifically fixing the Bluetooth, un-pair your phone with the car, and go through the process of repairing the two.
In general, the KK update requires many of us (different phones) to perform a Factory Data Reset after we back up our personal content (pictures, music, movies, or other downloaded files) to a PC or MAC. This will result in you having to do a bit of work to setup icons for the programs you use, and maybe putting in the specifics again for email accounts and other specialized apps. So if you are going to do this sort of thing... copy important information/settings down on paper.
HTH.

Bluetooth connection with my car OK but receving time asking hand set. it should go direct bluetooth

I am using bluetooth in car and call incoming time it is asking to connect bluetooth. It should automatic goes to bluetooth and if don't want that time i can slect to heandset.

Fortunately, my S3 has no problems pairing, connecting and reconnectiong with my Acura MDX (06) Handsfree Link and a Dual BT aftermarket unit I installed on the other car. Also, both my cars have generic OBDII BT adapters adn the Phone connects simultaneously to both the audio, hands-free and the OBDII (via Torque) without any issues or hiccups.
WiFi and Cell signal are another story - where other devices have no problems connecting, the S3 struggles to maintain WiFi and Cell signal. Hopefully, they will fix that with a software update.

Airplay Icon not Showing when connected to my car's bluetooth stereo

I have an UVO system in my Kia. It has been working great with the Iphone Airplay since October. I recently updated my phone and now, just like many others, no airplay showing up on my music apps.
I basically use Spotify and Pandora all the time with zero issues. Now when my phone is connected to my car through bluetooth, my phone works perfectly and can talk through the speakers for calls but the music apps do not display the icon to switch between dock connector or bluetooth audio. This has led me to believe it's not a problem with my UVO system in my car but rather an apple related issue. Why would they dissapear? I have tried shutting off, rebooting, and all that jazz on both my Iphone 4 and Ipad2. Also, even when connected through the USB port, the UVO still doesnt recognize the audio.
Any advice would be awesome!

I DON'T text and drive. I just want be able to hear, for example, alerts that I have put on my calendar. I can/do pull over to look at texts--but not when I don't know that I have a message. This was never an issue until a couple of weeks ago.

Problems connecting Nano 7th generation to bluetooth in car

Why does my new nano 7th generation have problems connecting to my cars's bluetooth. All it does is search, search, search.etc etc etc?

Does your car use the A2DP Bluetooth profile? If not, I'm afraid you won't be able to connect the iPod to your car stereo system via Bluetooth.

HT204387 what is the bluetooth pairing default code to connect to bluetooth device (car).

What is the bluetooth pairing code to connect to bluetooth device (car) for iphone 4 w 7.os

first you must put your iphone in the discover mode by going to bluetooth on your phone which places it in discovery mode. Them you must go to your car's bluetooth discovery mode and place it in discovery mode. If the phone sees the car and visa versa, the car will give you a code to place into your phone. Once you put the code into the phone the two will be linked. Make sure that your car has "automatic" link set so that your phone will link every time you turn on the ignition. Refer to your car's manual for more help or go to your dealer, they should be able to help you or even do it for you, but you need to know how to be able to discover and then link bluetooth devices yourself because every bluetooth device uses the same discovery formula especially if you want to use your IOS devices to play music through your system using bluetooth.

Is anyone having problems with connecting to your car's Bluetooth Hands Free System since installing iOS 8.1?

I have an iPhone 4S and I just installed iOS 8.1. Now I am having issues maintaining my connection to my Car's built-in Bluetooth System. I have a 2013 VW Passat with the stock Fender, Audio, NAV & Handsfree System.
I can establish a connection, but lose it almost as fast. I'm wondering if something changed with my iPhone's Bluetooth settings with iOS 8.1. I never had any issues before upgrading.
I'm just wondering if anyone out there is having the same problem that I am having.
Thanks,
Greg Landry

There are a number of reports from people with VW vehicles. Try removing the phone from the list in the car. Then, remove the vehicle from the list in the phone. Do a reset on the phone, hold the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo and then release. After the phone reboots, put the devices into discovery/pairing mode and see if they will connect. Otherwise, you might do a search of the forum looking for issues with VW vehicles.

I just switched from iphone 4s to LG G3. I'm having issues with bluetooth in my car, iphone would sync automatically but with G3 I have to manually connect to my car's bluetooth every time I turn it on - it won't sync automatically. Any fixes?

You can turn on BT tethering but it disables Wifi so if I have to do that step every time I get in my car, I just as well manually connect on BT every time.

Please stop posting in ALL UPPER CASE; it is considered SHOUTING, is harder to read, and is considered rude.
If you have not yet done so unpair the car kit from the phone, or better yet reset it completely, Forget the car kit in the iPhone, and pair it anew.

Lumia 800 cannot connect to my car's bluetooth

Got my Lumia 800 last week and i'm very happy with it - except for one thing. It refuses to connect to my car's bluetooth hands-free system.
The car is a Ford Mondeo XR5 (2009), with factory-fitted bluetooth. I've used several other phones with the car system with no problems, including my old Nokia 6700 classic, Samsung Galaxy S2 and Nokia N9. These all conenct and work fine. Just not the Lumia 800.
I've used Zune to get the latest software for the phone, and have checked bluetooth is turned on (can connect to my laptop OK).
I've spoken to Ford and they say the car system is working fine, since it can connect to all the other phones OK. Spoke to Nokia support & they refer me back to Ford .
Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Check for updates for your in-car bluetooth system, 2009 hardware is very very old by today's standards, especially since car bluetooth systems are lagging a few years behind other technology by default.

Connecting music through car bluetooth kit

I can successfully conect my iPhone to my car using a blueooth car kit (Volvo). This is fine for telephone calls and is marvelous. My problem is how do I connect the ipod function and hear my music through the car audio system. Is it something I need to do to the iPhone or to the bluetooth car kit. There is no obvious connection and the car kit gives no advice in the hand book so I am worried that it may not be possible. Any successful experiences and if so, what do I need to do?

Hi,
In our Volvo V50 Edition II (Netherlands, 2008) we have the iPod connector option installed and it works great with my iPhone and iPod Nano (3rd gen). It's well worth the price and you can control your iPhone through the steering wheel and/or the audio system. You can browse through songs, folders, artists and playlists.
The bluetooth carkit is a Motorola IHF1000 (at least I think it is) which mutes the audio when calls are made.
With the Volvo iPod connector you will get an iPod connector and also an USB connector, the last one for connecting USB memory sticks with your favorite MP3's.

A friend of mine drives an Acura and said she is also having the same problem? I have to connect the phone every time I get in the car.

Turn Off BT on your Phone & ReBoot..
Delete the phone from the vehicles memory..
Restart the Vehicle & go thro' the Pair set up..........

I have an Iphone 6 plus. Can the bluetooth connect to the cars speaker system and a Garmin HUD unit at the same time?

I have an Iphone 6 plus. Can the bluetooth connect to the cars speaker system and a Garmin HUD unit at the same time?

Hi,
Normally yes, Bluetooth can connect to multiple devices at the same time, so yes.
The only thing is that you'll be able to send sound/music to only one at a time, but I understand the Garmin HUD doesn't play sounds.
cheers
