Connecting Bluetooth

BB Curve 8380. I am new to BB and figured most things out, but not the bluetooth. I'm trying to connect it to my laptop and can't figure it out. Any help for a newbie? Thank you.

Hi there!
8380? For some reason, I don't find that model number...
But, all BT pairing instructions are in the user guide. You can find your user guide here:
http://docs.blackberry.com/en/smartphone_users/categories/?category=BlackBerry+Smartphones&userType=...
If you've already tried that, then please report back with exactly what you've attempted and exactly what the result is.
Cheers!

This worked in the previous version of PC-Suite.
I have tried to re-install , clean out previous settings etc etc... I can workaround for now with my USB cable but any pointers as to what is worng would be most helpful.
Thank you all in advance.

I had the same problem as this on a Nokia E51.
The general solution to this problem for any phone.... from first principles...
1... Delete the Modem entry for the phone, in Phone and Modems,
       Control Panel.
2... Delete the RFCOMM Protocol TDI in Device Manager.
3... Delete the pairing for the phone in Nokia PC Suite.
4... Unpair the computer in your phone handset
5... Re-Pair the phone, and test its paired and connects
       in PC Suite.
6... Rescan for devices, Device Manager.
       This will reinstall the 'RFCOMM Protocol TDI' in Device Manager.
7... Check you are connecting to the correct access end-point for your network.
       You can...
            7.1... enter the correct network address in the PC Suite
                      'Connect to Internet settings', Access point box.
                       If you configure the connection manually,
                       there is a greater chance it will work, as opposed to auto.
                      OR
            7.2... enter the correct network address in the modem Properties,
                     Advanced, 'Extra initialisation commands' box.
Extra Initialisation commands for the UK Vodafone network would be
      +CGDCONT=,,"wap.vodafone.co.uk"
If you choose the 7.2 option you don't need PC Suite open to connect in future. You can simply find the connection in Start Menu, 'Connect to' menu. Either 'double-click', or 'right-click | connect' and you will be connected.
This network connection is normally created by PC Suite. If you play around with it and connections start failing, you could 'right-click | delete' and set it back up in PC Suite. to reinitialise it back to sensible settings - remebering to re-enter your network access end-point.
That should deal with any hosed connection, whatever the reported reason on connect.
Happy browsing :-)

Problems Connecting Bluetooth

I Can't get my new i6 to connect with Bluetooth. Any suggestions.

The attempted connection is to a land line Panasonic home phone. The car
is a 2015 model. I did not restore the 6 from my old 4s. Does the name
have any relevance? Pardon my ignorance, but I am NOT a sophisticated
techie. It was very simple with the 4s. I turned on bluetooth, put it in
proximity to the other electronics, the phone identified them and I could
connect. With the 6, the phone won't identify any bluetooth device with which to
connect. In my simplistic mind that seems to point to a problem with the 6
or its software. I have noted that others report similar problems on the
internet in non-Apple forums. Do you have any suggestions?

The Bluetooth in the iPhone will not connect to another phone. What
year/make/model of car are you trying to connect to? Did you restore the iPhone
6 from a backup of the iPhone 4s? Does it have the same name as the iPhone
4s?

How can I connect Bluetooth in iPad retina with non apple devices ?

How can I connect Bluetooth in iPad retina with non apple devices ?

What devices?
The iPad can only pair with earphones, speakers and keyboards.
It cannot directly pair with other phones or computers for file transfer or other operations.
Most Bluetooth devices will have a user guide to connect them to other devices. follow that to start the process.
From the iPad side, its just a matter of going inot Settings->BlueTooth turning it on, and searching for the device to pair.

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.

L775D-S7330 Need software to connect bluetooth.

I did a fresh reinstall of Windows. I need to be able to connect my bluetooth devices. I believe I have successfully installed the driver, but I need some utility that will let me manage my device connections for this laptop. I prefer to not use the Toshiba recovery software to do this.
thanks

Here’s how to connect Bluetooth devices in Win 7; however note this fact:
If you’re using Bluetooth software from a manufacturer other than Microsoft, Windows might not be able to detect your Bluetooth device and let you add it to your computer. This certainly the way my Qosmio works searching for the help, such as “Change settings for a Bluetooth enabled device” is not supported in Toshiba.
http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows7/connect-to-bluetooth-and-other-wireless-or-network-devic...
On the other hand, another computer I have with Win 7 OEM installed will support exactly as help states.

have you tried toggling bluetooth off/on again? if so, try doing a hard reset:
Press and hold both the Home button and the Sleep/wake button simultaneously for about 15 seconds and release when the Apple logo appears.
If that doesn't solve the issue, you could also try backing up the device and restoring the device as new.
In that case, follow the steps in: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137
NB: set up as a NEW device because a software issue will be in the backup. If you still can't detect or pair with any compatible bluetooth device you should offer the device for service.
If you're not able to restore the device, this one might help: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808
Using his article will erase everything on the device, so make sure you have a backup!
Good luck

Is there an Auto connect bluetooth headset option?

Is there an Auto connect bluetooth headset option? I hate having to always choose to send a phone call to my hands-free device. What's the point of a Bluetooth headset if I have to use the phone every time to connect to it?

Keep it on or re-pair the devices and toggle the Auto-connect setting.

Mid-2012 Macbook air wifi connectivity, bluetooth interference, and SD slot

I've had issues with all off these things since right around the time my warranty expired:
-Wifi is often slower than all other computers in my house no matter where it is; it doesn't work at all if i have bluetooth on and connected to something. this seems to be a known bug that apple won't acknowledge- there are discussions of it here and on macrumors forums
-The SD card slot often ejects or unmounts the storage expansion that I keep in it full time. not just when battery is low or even while sleeping, but sometimes while I am sitting at the computer working. I've had to repair the sd card with disk utility multiple times as a result.
-Battery life is down to about 3 hours- battery health says it is at 83% of its original full capacity but I know it used to get 6 hours easily, and mavericks was supposed to improve that. I'm wondering in part if the SD card is part of what's killing it, but there is no way I can find to really get a deeper analysis of what's using the power. I do nothing on my computer except use office applications, browse the web and listen to music through headphones or a wired speaker (since BT won't work with the internet).
Mid-2012 13" MBA, running 10.9.4. I have no pirated software on here and have been gradually moving things to cloud storage, so the hd is only 54% full. I'm going to have to pay for a support ticket to get any help on these things, so i'm wondering: Is it worth it? Will I end up paying for every separate issue? I feel pretty confident Apple support is not going to acknowledge the first two points are part of larger and unacknowledged issues, especially being out of warranty, and battery life is so subjective.
I'm honestly feeling close to buying a windows 8 machine.

I have seen lots of issues on Yosemite with Wifi (and have been having issues myself), but yours seem different. It is a pretty new computer, have you tried taking it in under Applecare (if you live somewhere this is convenient)? Maybe you just got a defective wifi card. I won't defend Apple over this wifi mess, because it really is terrible, but your issue seems not the same as the ones I've read about while researching how to fix mine (unsucessfully....).

Mini doesn't always connect bluetooth and external (USB) drives on boot

I have had a new Intel mini for 4 months now (we also have a PPC G5, which we love). In the last few weeks the mini started to not connect my Bluetooth keyboard and mouse, nor recognize some of my USB peripherals when booting up. When this happens, it also makes a repeated "startup sound - bong!" echo when the start button is pressed. I have two external USB drives, one 500GB Phantom and one 500GB WD MyBook. When the Apple logo appears at boot, I can see the activity lights flashing on the drives as the BIOS interrogates the USB connections, but after the Leopard start up desktop appears, the only drive shown is Macintosh HD, the mouse pointer is at the top left of the display and will not move, nor will the keyboard do anything. I have read every post on this subject and tried all of the resets suggested. Sometimes this works after a few attempts, sometimes it takes 6 or more tries - disconnecting all cables, and turning the computer on again and again. Occasionally the WD MyBook drive appears on the desktop, yet still the Bluetooth is unresponsive and the other drive absent. I am getting frustrated having to disconnect everything and trying to boot this thing up, sometimes for one hour or longer before I can use it properly (all of my work is on the external drives).
There MUST be a firmware update for this by now, because I see that I am not the only one experiencing these problems, and this is obviously some problem with how the BIOS is communicating with the bus.

Hi amyta pdx-
I'd be careful jumping to conclusions or the troubleshooting process may get clouded. For one thing those WD drives are junk and most people using them eventually have problems.
What happens with everything disconnected from the Mac except a mouse connected to a USB port on the Mac and the monitor connected to the video port only?
Luck-

How can I get my iPhone 4 w/ iOS6 to Connect bluetooth with my Alpine CDE-133BT Car Stereo?

My iPhone 4 with iOS6 will not send a bluetooth signal to the Alpine CDE-133BT Stereo I installed on my 2006 Toyota Tacoma. It had previously connected with iOS5. I contacted Crutchfield where I opurchased the stereo from and they said this is a common complaint with multiple brands of stereos not being compatible with the new iOS6 update. Has anyone had this issue and has a solution? Or is this something that Apple will have to fix?
BTW, my phone recognizes my stereo as a bluetooth device but the stereo does not recognize the phone.
Thanks.

Hi I've had my CDE-133BT since July and recently updated to IOS6 on my iPhone 4 (not an S).
I had to hold the BT phone button and forget all the devices paired to the 133BT.
Then pair the phone again.
I can stream music now however I can't control (change tracks, pause or play from the 133BT).
This is because Alpine needs to update the firmware I believe.
Hope that helped!
