Hands free wont work

hi , my headphones don't respond when i click the button on them to answer a call or pause music - i can hear the caller but they can't hear me once i manually answer with them still plugged in - the headphones arent at fault as i have tried 2 different pairs and they also work on my brothers iphone - the handsfree did work when i first got the phone just not now - any help would be greatly appreciated as its doin my head in !!!

You may have sorted it out already but I had the same issue. Turns out that a lot of pocket fluff can get down the headphones socket! I cleaned it out (phone off and with great care) and now the hands free function is working. Hope this helps.

HT204387 iphone 5 hands free stopped working on my Nissan Juke after oil change?

My iphone 5 hands free stopped working in my 2012 Nissan Juke after I took it into dealership for an oil change. I could see calls coming in on the car display screen and the call connects but caller can't hear me and I can't hear them. I took my car back to dealer and left my phone and car with them for a full day but they told me it was an iphone issue. I tried removing and adding my phone again but it hasn't helped. I can still hear music when I connect the phone w/ the usb port. Anyone else have this problem?

Delete the pairing form the device and the vehicle.
Pair the devices again.

Muffled speaker for hands free and music

I'm having problems with my iPhone 4S speakers. Music sounds muffled and my hands free function can't be heard. Callers complain they can't hear me. Has anyone else experienced this?

Yes the iPhone4 is listed for my model as equiped. It does not have all the functionality such as uploading contacts but the hands free should work. My Subaru service depart verified there was no software update listed for my navigation system for using the iPhone4. A quick google of iPhone and bluetooth returns a significant number of message threads. That includes a thread on the Apple forums that is now up to 44 pages. It is not an isolated issue with just Subaru.
I made an appointment at an Apple store today and after describing the problem they replaced the phone a second time. So far during one phone call there were no issues. I have yet to restore a backup so I don't have any contacts or applications on it yet. I will try it for about a while to see if the problem occurs again. If there are no issues I might try loading stuff back on it progressively to determine if it might be a software issue. I shouldn't be dealing with this mess. It is a serious pain in the *** and I have better things to do with my time. If I knew before hand I have this kind of problem I wouldn't be using a mobile phone with an apple on it.

Hands Free

I have a Verizon Samsung Galaxy S4, and I can't get the hands free option work, can anyone help me?

Did you try deleting the Bluetooth profile for the headset on the phone and re-pair the headset?

Using hands free phone thru mp3 connection?

i have been currently using my curve 8330 in conjunction with a parrot bluetooth system for hands free phone. worked great.. unfortunately last week driver ran a red light and totaled my 05 honda element. just bought a 2008 Ford Escape XLT. does not have the microsoft sync system but does have an mp3 input jack. i know my blackberry will work as an mp3 player but can i use the phone funtions such as voice dialing and hear the audio thru my audio sytem without purchasing another parrott system? much appreciate your advice.

Actually you can talk with the iPhone still connected to your car audio. I owe an '06 Nissan Armada with an auxiliary jack included. Sometimes I will use my Apple BT. Here lately, I've been using nothing other than the iPhone plugged in and talking. I can hear the person I'm talking to and vice-versa. I always knew I could talk using the BT, but I just found out two weeks ago, that I could talk and listen without a BT, at all. The only thing you'll need to do is, make sure to decrease the volume of your system, in order to avoid any feedback. It'll work just fine, if you do it right. trust me.

Iphone 2.0 update no longer working with Chrysler Uconnect Hands Free

Hello. I recently downloaded the 2.0 update for my original iphone and it will no longer work with the my Uconnect hands free setup in my 2008 Dodge Ram. I am a Chrysler Dealer Parts Manager and have installed and shown many people how to set these uconnect hands free devices up but I have no connection with the 2.0 update. I pair the phone as a new phone and it will pair but will not show up at all and it says "No Phone". Anybody know a fix for this. Help Apple!!!

I have a new Dodge Nitro. U Connect and iphone were working great. I had no problems until the 2.0 update. I tried calling apple care but gave up quickly when I realized I was going to be waiting forever with everything else they have going on.
The weird thing was that I was on a call trying to get some help from a friend of mine and all of a sudden the phone started working with the u connect. Then after leaving and returning to the car it stopped working again. Haven't been able to get it working since. I though maybe you had to be on a call for a while before it would transfer over. That wasn't it.
I tried turning off wireless too. Again no effect.
The phone shows that it is paired with the u connect. I've tried unpairing and repairing several times still to no effect. They just aren't working. This is a HUGE problem. I love my iPhone but may have to give it up and switch if they don't come up with a fix in the next month or so.
Anybody who can help me solve this would definitely move to the top of my Christmas Card List!

Does the ipod nano 7th gen work with Belkin Blue tooth In car hands free? Customer support said it did when I bought it, but the box doesn't say it does and I dont want to open it in case I have to return it.

If the Belkin supports the A2DP (Stereo Bluetooth) profile then it will work.

mono 8 bit 8k is 64kbps, yes. 8 bits times 8,000 = 64,000 = 64k bits/sec.
And yes I think that's a typo - there's no such thing as 'Mone' that I've ever heard of...
But you might want to check to find out if this is a mu-law non-linear format, possibly - there are several ways that 8 bit 8k wav files can be encoded, and typically phone systems don't use linear ones. If you have a log-in to Zultys' user-base system they have an FAQ there, I believe - the answer might be in that, and it won't cost $500.

Hi Guys does anyone know of a way i can get cyclops speed camera alert to work through bluetooth incar hands free kit , i used to be able to connect it via an app called drivesafely but this app is no longer available in apple store ????????????

I think the easiest way to do this is to have the EyeTV app running in one user account and sent via HDMI to the TV, and use a separate user account for Screen Sharing. Both logins can be active at the same time and with Lion you can connect via screen sharing to which ever login you need.
With regards to the Mac video resolution changing, when it is not the current input on your AV receiver. This is 'normal', if the Mac sees no signal it drops down the a lower level. What you need is to buy a HDMI Detective Plus which tricks the Mac in to always seeing a signal and hence it will not drop down the resolution. See http://www.gefen.com/kvm/dproduct.jsp?prod_id=8005
The Mac mini does have an IR receiver. This can be used with the EyeTV app, iTunes, and similar. Yes I believe EyeTV would run for prolonged periods quite happily, it is has been around for a long time and had most of the rough edges polished off. However one issue you will have to deal with is that it does not automatically update its program guide data. For this you might have to write or modify an AppleScript. Elgato support or their user forums will be a lot of help.
You can set EyeTV to convert recordings to an iTunes (Apple TV) compatible format and then delete them from EyeTV.
The HDMI Detective should solve your handshaking problems.

Hello there stidhambr15,
I was researching the issue you are having and recommend a couple of things. First it might be a good idea to reset the device following iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting found here http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
Resetting your device
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
If that doesn't quite get the device going again, I recommend restoring the device.
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1414
Might even be a good idea to turn off the phone, reseat the SIM card, and turn it back on.

I am unable to pair my Iphone 4 with my car stereo or hands free device. It has worked in the past, recently stopped. Please advise. Thanks.

I am unable to pair my Iphone 4 with my car stereo or hands free device. It worked preveiously; please help.

The item that was previousl paired is no longer seen by the hands free unit.
The new system, car stereo and Iphone see each other, but do not pair.
Hope this makes more sense and you have a fix!!

Car audio not connecting via Bluetooth therefore Hands free does not work

How long before Apple fixes something they broke by new OS.
Here in the UK it is illegal to use a phone whilst driving unless your using a Hands Free device. My Panasonic 4600 worked perfectly until OS 8 upgrade and now voice command is broken. I have read many other blogs etc with different car and radio owners have the same problem. So Apple, how long before you make us legal users again?

Apple aren't going to budge, are they? You'd be more likely finding an OS update for your car! Take it into your dealer; if it's a widespread issue, they'll probably have/be working on a patch

Q10 microphone not working hands free

Greetings,
I just noticed that my microphone will not work if I want to call hands free or use Skype with video on.
I just updated to 10.02 but I don't know if the problem is due to the upgrade or if it a hardware issue as I did not try using hands free before the system upgrade.
Please help as I need to use hands free when driving and using Skype.
Thanks,
Michel

Hi and Welcome to the Community!
Anytime random strange behavior or sluggishness shows up, the first thing to try is a proper reboot:
Pre-BB10 Devices ONLY. With power ON, remove the back cover and pull out the battery. Wait about a minute then replace the battery and cover. Power up and wait patiently through the long reboot -- ~5 minutes.
BB10 Devices. Hold the top button down until the counter reaches zero. Wait for the device to be fully shut down (e.g., nothing at all displayed on the screen, no LED lights, etc.). Hold the top button until the red LED is lit. Wait through the full boot-up process. If this fails, you can attempt the battery-pull method above, but it is normally NOT recommended unless nothing else works.
See if things have returned to good operation. Like all computing devices, BB's suffer from memory leaks and such...with a hard reboot being the best cure.
Good luck!

HT201401 Microphone works only when using the phone in hands-free

Microphone works only when using the phone in hands-free (speaker on) mode. Otherwise, only a constant buzz, accompanied by regular clicks (repeating 2-3 times/sec) can be heard by called persons or when recording a memo. Makes Siri unusable, and cannot make private calls unless in a private area. Does anybody have a fix for this?

Okay I just solved the problem myself..
For anyone that may have the same issue:
The microphone used when recording video, is the little dot next to the jack on top of the iPhone 4S (maybe also iPhone 4, don't know). There was some dirt in this tiny little hole, and I simply just removed it with a very thin needle, and now it works great!
