Thanks for that info.
Directions for how to Pair a Bluetooth headset ... with iPod touch are given on Page 40 of the iPod touch User Guide for iOS 4.1 Software:

Testing will let OP know whether the "Bluetooth headset" is one that can connect.

  • Can anyone tell me why Apple does not sell a Bluetooth Headset that is compatible with the IPhone 6??  The Bluetooth 4.0 version that the 6 runs has been in place since 2010.

    No Bluetooth headsets are compatible with IPhone 6 series-

    I originally wrote this post to see if anyone else had come up with a solution to Apple's inability to engineer the Iphone 6 product line to be compliant with Bluetooth 4.0 that has been around for ONLY 5 years.  Since you want to talk about driving while talking let's look at your evidence.  1) When you consider that the Washington Post will not admit to the number of participants participating in the study they site makes the study in valid as you cannot tell if any conclusion is statistically valid.  The National Safety Council does not give what data it had or where it came from but is pure opinion- not factual. 2)  When you look at your second source from Forbes- did you realize that the person who wrote it is a CONTRIBUTOR with no scientific data to back his conlusions?  I happen to have be a licensed Insurance Agent for over 30 years.  The largest insurance companies (who pay the claims) have not been able to draw conclusions about talking and driving as the number of incidents per million miles (determines the rates charged for coverage) have not been statistically different enough to go to state insurance commissioners to ask for rate increases due to talking and driving at the same time.  The states that have enacted Hands Free Laws did so for 1 reason- if a person has 2 hands free to try to avoid an accident there is a higher probability that a driver will maintain control of their own vehicle vs. 1 hand.  Can we stick to the subject- Do you think that APPLE should have made the IPhone 6 Compatible with Bluetooth Headsets and why haven't they done so yet?

  • 10.4.8 Issues with bluetooth headset

    Hello!
    I have always used a Logitech Bluetooth Headset with the SIP client XMeeting under OS X 10.4.5 without any issues. AfterI updated to 10.4.8, the headset only works when I switched on PRIOR to booting the Mac.
    If I switch it on after booting the Mac, its LED blinks blue with a strange sequence (two short blinks every 2 seconds or so - a headset state that the user's guide does not even mention).
    But even if I switch it on prior to booting the Mac, it will not really connect (i.e. get out of standby mode) when I start XMeeting, instead it will connect with a delay only when I start a call with XMeeting.
    Does anyone else face issues with bluetooth headsets? Or has someone found a fix for that?
    Thanks,
    Erik

    Issue resolved with patches to 10.4.8 and follow-on versions.

  • 3GS doesn't work correctly with Bluetooth headset?

    Why won't my husband's 3GS work correctly with Bluetooth headset? I have a 4S, and I bought a Plantronics 903  Bluetooth headset, and it plays music great out of headset, but when I tried to do that with my husband's 3GS, only one earpiece plays?

    It is not supposed to fit, and murray65 is correct - Apple never made a dual dock for the iPhone 3G, and in fact, early this year they discontinued the Apple Bluetooth Headset. You can either just use the travel cable to charge both devices, or you can use a Dremel (or carton knife, etc.) to widen the opening in the dock for the iPhone to accommodate the slightly larger and more rounded iPhone 3GS. See the last few posts in this thread for some links to pics of the process.

  • C2-00 Problem with Bluetooth headset

    I use it for a week and have a problem with bluetooth headset.
    When I finish a call my mobile is stop working.
    The only way to get it back is remove a battery.
    I try to use other bluetooth headset but it have the same problem.
    Please help me to fix this problem.
    Thank you.

    conceivably, yes, that is how its supposed to work
    i was just wondering if there was a way to turn it off somehow, so as to only enable the bluetooth for calls and not for all audio. unpairing and pairing the bluetooth definitely works, but it just seems like overkill everytime i want to anything regarding sounds (asise from calls)
    thanks,

  • How to listen/watch videos on ipad mini with bluetooth headset

    how can I listen/watch videos (e.g You Tube) on ipad mini with bluetooth headset. The headset is paired but the sound comes only from the ipad mini internal speaker

    I was the fan of this feature until ios 6 version. I have two mini ipads @ my home for my kids. It helped my kids a lot to play all the episodes within a tv show. Apple some how decided kill the features linked to someone's patent in ios 7, thereby they can avoid paying royalty fee to the patent holder. Even from the initial days there are lot of such features missed out in ipad, iphone or MAC. You might overlook these features as a consumer.
    I will be surprised if Apple listens to this customer feedback.
    I am seeing the same question being raised in many forums including within apple forums.

  • HT2822 What is the better Connection on Apple TV v2, Ethernet or Wifi 802.11n???? does not support with ethernet gigabit?

    What is the better Connection on Apple TV v2, Ethernet or Wifi 802.11n????
    Does not support with ethernet gigabit?

    If you have stable wifi with good connectivity it should work fine - in reality many people struggle with wifi.
    I was plagued by interference issues with wifi whenever the microwave was used and would always use ethernet now as my first preference for stability.
    As the house is not wired for ethernet several years ago I tried mains powerline network adapters that are made by many companies.
    I use these from Devolo currently:
    http://www.devolo.co.uk/consumer/81_dlan-500-avmini_starter-kit_product-pictures _8.html?l=en
    They are excellent and you can create a wired network in minutes without running long lengths of cable.
    As with wifi they never achieve the highest rated speeds and are dependent on the wiring quality but are more than adequate for HD streaming to multiple AppleTVs.
    Many other manufacturers produce these eg Belkin, Netgear etc as well as lesser known brands.

  • Can't get Dlink DBT-122 to work with Bluetooth headset

    I have seen the various posts on trying to get an external usb bluetooth adapter to work with a mobile bluetooth headset e.g. Jabra bluetooth headset.
    I get the following error when trying to connect to the headset:
    Failed to setup the headset. Headsets are not supported on your Bluetooth hardware.
    When I try and use the bluetooth firmware updater i get the following error:
    This computer does not have an Apple Bluetooth module installed. It cannot be updated by this application.
    Please help and Thanks in advance

    The firmware upgrade does not work with the DBT-122

  • IPod touch bettery with Bluetooth headset

    Because I saw the power was getting low so quickly!
    Thanks

    This is not a feature of the ipod 3rd gen.

  • Google Voice Won't Work With Bluetooth Headset After Jelly Bean

    I am SO frustrated. I had no idea I was installing the Jelly Bean update when I updated the software on my phone. Note to Verizon Communications team: PLEASE do a better job of communicating significant software updates. I would not have installed Jelly Bean. I learned long ago to stick with factory OS on my phones.
    Since the update, I noticed that I could no longer dictate texts and emails. Also, my call recording app no longer worked. I switched to Swype and it would work for a few minutes and then stop.  I could still use my bluetooth headset to make calls and S voice worked (although, like others here, I noticed that it's now worse--it doesn't recognize any contact names I request anymore). After trolling Android forums I found that the problem is with the bluetooth headset. You can still dictate when the phone's bluetooth is on, but when a device is connected, all bets are off.
    I almost did a factory reset, but then I read that a hard reset will not restore ICS, nor did it resolve this bluetooth Google Voice issue for the few people who tried it already. In fact, resetting caused more problems (eg., more battery drain and removal of Adobe Flash, etc.).
    Does anyone know how I can go back to ICS? Bluetooth and Google Voice are the two features I value most in my phones. This is a NIGHTMARE.

    rcschnoor -
    The Bluetooth/Voice Search/Dictation issue is a valid issue for the OP, a valid issue for me and oh yeah, the hundreds of other people affected by the, "Google Voice Search stuck on "Initializing" bug filed here on the Google Android Project page.  Here is yet another reference to the same issue from Android Central.
    The "Google Music freezing after Jelly Bean Update on Galaxy S3" is also a valid and documented bug located here also on the Google Android Project page.
    So I ask, how does sharing with these people that do have these issues, and are affected by them, that you are not experiencing these issues help in any way?  Isn't that the whole purpose of a community forum to help others?

  • I have problem with bluetooth headset.

    My bluetooth headset does not work well.
    and google and wiki.archlinux do not give me a good answer.
    so I come here, ask you.
    bluez gnome-bluetooth and other packages related to bluetooth are installed.
    and gnome-bluetooth can find and connect to my bluetooth headset in mode A2DP.
    but when I open music player Rhythmbox, the sound goes to loudspeaker, not bluetooth.
    i find it need .asoundrc to play via bluetooth, and "aplay -D btheadset xxx.wav" works well.
    Rhythmbox still can't use bluetooth. I think some plugin may do this, but I can't find it.
    and more funny, "mplayer -ao alsa:device=btheadset xxx.mp3" makes system die. Is that command right?
    Do i need install pulseaudio, if I want bluetooth headset is connected, and sound is switched automatically.

    With the word 'automatically', yes you do need pulseaudio. I'm sure you could cook up some udev or related rule to do that in Alsa, but pulseaudio would be easier.

  • Using Nokia 6680 with Bluetooth Headset BH-601

    Hi all,
    I have Bluetooth headset model BH-601 and need to use it with my 6680 mobile.
    I was able to pair the headset with the mobile but I couldn't listen to music as stereo, I was able to listen to music on the left speaker of the headset with very low quality as I was listening using normal headphone.
    I tried to use the headset with my PC and it worked perfectly.
    Is there a way to configure the mobile to use the BH-601 as stereo headset?
    Is there a compatible music player.
    Thank you,
    Hadi

    The 6680 does not have the bluetooth profile necessary for listening to music in stereo on a bluetooth headset. As far as I am aware there is no way to get this profile onto the phone.
    The only Nokia phones that have this profile is the 8800 and possibly the 7390 which I dont think is even released yet.

  • Why the iPod Touch does not support GPS Bluetooth Reciever

    Why the iPod Touch does not support Bluetooth GPS.
    I had to make a jailbreak justto install and use roqyBT a Bluetooth GPS receiver,
    This aplication run witch these software:
    TomTom
    Navigon
    iGO
    Maps
    Google Earth
    Around me
    And run wich several receives as iBT 747, QSTARZ Q-1000, Holux M-1000 and my Nokia LD-3W.
    But I didn´t like to use Jailbreak, I only make the jailbreak to use a GPS bluetooth.

    Ipod touch supports bluetooth for stereo headsets/speakers and some peer to peer apps from the app store.
    Why is not a question that can be answered here.
    Only Apple would know.
