How do I transfer iPhone contacts via Bluetooth to my car

I just bought a Mercedes-Benz GLK 350 and I cannot figure out how to transfer my Verizon iPhone contacts to the MB console via Bluetooth vCard upload. Having trouble fidning a resource that can enlighten me on this.

The iPhone 4 does not support the OPP profile that is required for Bluetooth contact transfer. So your out of luck using conventional methods.
Who knows? Maybe iOS 5 will allow this... I know that they have improved bluetooth support, however I don't know if that includes OPP.

Your stereo must support PBAP(Phone Book Access Profile).

How do I transfer iphone contacts to my PC

How do I transfer iphone contacts to my PC

1.Plug your USB cable into the computer and charge/sync cradle, which comes with your phone.
2.Place the iPhone in the cradle. iTunes should start automatically and recognize your iPhone.
3.Click on the iPhone logo in the left navigation pane of iTunes. You’ll be taken to a screen that gives you an overview of your phone and has several tabs along the top of the window, among them, "Contacts."
4.Click on the "Contacts" tab and select which contacts you want synced with your iPhone. You'll need to choose which program you want your contacts synced from. Mac users will want to use "Address Book" or "Entourage." PC users should use "Microsoft Outlook" or "Outlook Express."
5.Click the "Sync" button at the bottom of the "Contacts" pane. Your sync status will be visible in the top middle of the window. Do not remove your iPhone from the cradle until the sync is complete.
6.Eject your iPhone by clicking on the "Eject" button next to your iPhone’s logo in the left margin.
7.Check your contacts on your iPhone. Your new downloaded contacts should be there.

I can't connect my iphone 4 via bluetooth with my car phone

I cant connect my iphone via bluetooth with my car phone. Bluetooth is switched on on the iphone and the car phone says ready for bluetooth telephony yet the phone just keeps on searching without connecting? Any ideas as Apple phone support doesn't start until 9am (not very accommodating for a company whose equipment runs 24/7)

Car phone?

How do i transfer iphone contacts to my mac

anyone done this ?

Use your Mac Address Book and sync your iPhone with iTunes. From the Info tab, under Contacts, make sure to select “Address Book” from the drop-down menu before you sync.
I am not sure whether it works on Mac, but you can use copytrans contacts to transfer the contacts too (in case you do not want to use iTunes sync):
Finally, you can simply use the iCloud app and install it on your Mac. Make sure to enable iCloud contact sync on your iPhone. Then import contacts from your Mac to your iCloud application, this will move and sync the contact entries to your iPhone.

How do i transfer iphone contacts onto imessenger on my mac?

Plz Help.
Ive just installed imessenger onto my Macbook and none of the contacts from my Iphone have tranferred onto my computer so I have no idea who im messaging from my Macbook?
Is there some option I can choose to transfer the contacts from my iphone onto imessenger without having to do each one manually?

Howdy solomon1992,
I see you are using OS X Yosemite on your MacBook. If you are using the Messages app that comes with OS X it gets contact information from Contacts.
You can sync Contact information between your iPhone and computer with iTunes, the Info tab. Please see
Sync your iPhone, iPad, and iPod with iTunes using USB - Apple Support
Info: Sync your contacts and calendars.
I'm not sure what the app imessenger uses.
Best regards,
Nubz

How can you sync your contacts via bluetooth to a sony in car media centre

i need help, does anyone know how to bluetooth your contacts to a in car media centre with iphone 4?

If syncing contacts from a Cloud service or a supported application on the computer, remove the groups there.
There is no functionality for the user to initiate sending contacts in iOS. If the head unit support PBAP, the contacts sync automatically when connecting to the head unit.

How do I transfer video files via bluetooth from N...

I am new to Bluetooth and this forum. So far I've managed to send photos to my pc OK but having problems with video. The file appears to send OK but then I cannot play it back, seems to be an unrecognised format or something. Any suggestions?

Just guessing as I've not done this yet but; install iCloud 4.0 on your Windows PC, drag your video to your Photo stream folder, after a disturbing amount of time it will appear on your iPad and be accessible from the iMovie media icon (or share it wth iMovie from your Share icon).
Provisos would be; the movie needs to be in .MP4 format (why would it be anything else?), you need to be logged in to iCloud with the same AppleID on each device.
Let me know how you go as I know I'm going to be called on to do this soon.

I am trying to transfer my contacts to my iphone from a Casio G'zOne phone but I keep getting Connection Unsuccessful. How do I transfer the contacts?

I am new to Apple products and I am trying to transfer my contacts to my iphone from a Casio G'zOne phone but I keep getting Connection Unsuccessful. How do I transfer the contacts?

How are you trying to transfer them? Via Bluetooth? If so, that will not work.
You need to get the contacts from the Casio phone into a supported contact manager on your computer (Address Book/Contacts on a Mac or Outlook on a PC) then sync them to the iPhone via iTunes or iCloud.

You are syncing contacts or trying to sync contacts how - direct with a supported address book app on your computer via the iTunes sync process, which is selected under the Info tab for the iPhone sync preferences with iTunes?

How to send contact via bluetooth?

I just purchased a vehicle that has handsfree bluetooth capbility to use my iPhone. I got the thing to call but my question is, how do I transfer my contacts from my iPhone to my car?

Not possible as the iphone does not support the bluetooth protocols to do that It does support HFP (hands free) and PBA (phone book access), which allows another hands free device which supports PBA to look at and use the iPhones contacts while the devices are paired. But the iphone's contacts cannot be transferred to another device by bluetooth (iPhone has never been able to do that).

How can I link my iPad Air and iPhone 4s via Bluetooth, please? They haveBluetooth turned on but will not find each other.

How can I link my iPad Air and iPhone 4s via Bluetooth, please? They both have Bluetooth turned on but will only search and find nothing. The words 'Now Discoverable' appear under the search panel.

for the devices to find each other via Bluetooth you would need to turn on the iPhones cellular hotspot and then let them search for each other. As far as I have found this Bluetooth connection is only for connecting the iPad to internet via iPhones data plan.
To transfer photos you could setup a new photo stream and put the photos you want transferred in it. When it syncs to the iPad you can save directly to the camera roll and delete the photo stream. You may also be able to delete the photos old photos and re-add them to photo stream so it looks like they are new to the iPad.

You don't. File transfer, by Bluetooth, has never been supported on any iPhone.

How do i transfer my contacts from my iphone 3gs to the new iphone 4s?

How do I transfer my contacts etc from my iphone 3gs to iphone 4s ?

You do it via iTunes on your Mac or PC (by syncing the contacts to the equivalent desktop app), or via iCloud (but you'd need to upgrade the 3GS to iOS5 and open an iCloud account).
With iTunes, sync the 3GS, then connect the 4s and sync it
There are utilities like PhoneView (Mac) and others that will allow you to extract the data from your 3GS, but iTunes or iCloud are the preferred methods.
I should add that, if you're not using iTunes to sync your phone, you're at risk of losing data.

IPhone ios 5 still won't send vCard contacts via bluetooth to car system

I have an iPhone 3GS and am running iOS 5.0.1. I have a 2011 Toyota Camry with built-in bluetooth. I see a lot of posts from people talking about the fact that the iPhone can't send vCard name/phone number contact information to a car bluetooth system. Sending via MMS or e-mail is not an option to a car system like this. The car bluetooth system gets put into a mode where it waits for the information from the phone. But there is no option in iOS to send vCards via bluetooth. This capability is something my wife's free Samsung Solstice phone can do, but my "smartphone" / iPhone cannot. Every number I call from the iPhone, therefore, shows as calling "no name" as I can't get basic contact names/numbers sent to the car's system. This is not a far fetched feature and many phones (free ones at that) can do this. When will users be able to get this basic feature? All I need is send vCard contacts via bluetooth...As I said, sending via MMS or e-mail doesn't work for a car. I shouldn't need some app to do this either. It should be another transport feature on the vCard export from iOS.
Thanks,
Michael

In order to get contacts onto your in car system, it will need to support the PBAP bluetooth profile (Phone Book Access Protocol). If it does, contacts will transfer automatically on connection. You can not transfer contacts the way you're trying to.
Contact Toyota and see if there is an update available for your system.
