How do you get ipad2 and iphone4 Bluetooth to recognize each other? I tried turning on Bluetooth on both devices, but they can't detect each other

I have been having a lot of trouble connecting my ipad2 and iphone4 via Bluetooth. My iPad detects every other phone nearby except my iPhone. It does not even detect my wife's iphone4. It does detect my daughter's iphone 3S. The is very weird cause my iPhone is on iOS5, while my daughter's iphone3 is on the older iOS.
My iphone4 is simply unable to detect any other Bluetooth devices, apple device or otherwise.
This is very frustrating indeed when such advanced devices cannot do a simple function.a
Help anyone??

my problem exactly. Did you ever figure it out? I had to resort to turning off labels in the web interface for Gmail. Not ideal

    how do you get your library off your old computer if it will not turn on?

    You can extract the drive; put it into an external enclosure to mount it to another computer by USB or FireWire (if available) to acess the files. Copy and paste (Windows-style) or drag and drop (Mac-style) to another destination-- another external HDD or another computer.

  • How do you get documents (and other links) to open in Safari?

    I have a website that I use for school and there are course documents and such that I would like to open right in the Safari window, but Safari always downloads them. I know that they can be opened in the same window, but I can't figure out how to get Safari to do it.

    Most modern Web browsers can only "open" a few file extensions. Some are .html, .htm, .asp, .php and .txt.
    Most software create file extensions at saving. Some users choose to "hide" the file extension from the file name and rely on "icons" to decide which app will open them.
    So. What does a person have to do to get the browser to open the file?
    Example: Microsoft Word creates .doc file extension files and they will always be downloaded in a browser.
    TextEdit can create .rtf (Rich Text Format) or .txt (Text) file formats. The .rtf will download but a .txt file can be displayed by a browser.
    Microsoft Word can also save a file as .html and it will be viewable in a browser (as long as all the support and image files are inside the same folder).
    What is the application that makes the files? What save as (export) options does it allow?

  • How do you get notified of Gmail archived labels that skip the inbox with the mail app on iOS devices?

    If you are fimiliar with Gmail you know that you are able to set up labels/filters. Well i have my filters set up so when a certain person/company emails me the email gets archived into a certain folder and skips the inbox. This works great for me. This orgnazation method to keep an amazing clean/empty inbox works great. It's just like having a Filing cabinant and inside the filing cabinant you have a folder(label) for each file(email). Below is a sample Gmail that has Archived Labels that have content in each Archived Label that as you can see.. skip the inbox completely regeardless if the message was read or not.
    If the Archived Label has a new message in it it will have (1) next to it.
    Ex.
    Client One Folder (23)
    Client Two Folder
    Client Three (2)
    Client Four (5)
    Understand how that works? It works great for orginaziaonl reasons..
    Here is a photo of what it really looks like. (Info Blurred for security reasons)
    On the Gmail end of things this works great if you ask me...only flaw to this is my iOS device won't notify me that i have a new email in my ClientArchived Folder due to the fact that the Mail app preinstalled on the device only checks the inbox for new mail and does NOT check for new mail sent to Archived folders where majority of my mail is set up for orginazional reasons.
    I am aware that if i am using my iOS device that i can go to the Mail App and scroll down to account > Gmail > Scroll down and my archived folders for each client are their & shows how many emails are from each client..
    but why doesn't it notifty me about this emails that get sent to these organized archived folders in notifcation center?
    See the Mail App icon below? Well above it says i have 16 unread emails throughout my Gmail folders/labels.. Why doesn't it give me a red bubble via NC(noticication Center) on the app saying i have 16 unread messages?
    My problem isn't that i can't get the emails on the phone.. it's just if i am not expecting an email and someone emails me.. i won't get it until i go and pysically check in the mail account > gmail > archived folder. It's very frustrating seeing as if i like to be quick to respond to emails. Well it's hard to be quick to respond if my phone doesn't notify me about the emails.
    Why won't the App notify me when i have emails in folders other than "Inbox"?
    Called Apple and talked to a Technician.. He was clueless of a solution.
    Does anyone have a fix for this or a work around?
    Any help/input is apperciated!
    -Thanks

  • How do you get sound and video from a macbook pro (before 2010) onto a 2010 toshiba 40" tv?

    Any help on connecting a macbook pro (late 2009) to a 2010 toshiba 40" for both sound and video?  I have the mini-hdmi cable, but have no idea about running sound through the tv.  I can use the headphone jack, but don't know where to connect it to on the back of the tv.  Am I supposed to change any settings on the tv or computer to allow the sound to go through the tv?  thanks for any help.

    You need a stereo mini to RCA break out cable.

  • How do you get to preferences in safari on ipad2

    How do you get to preferences in safari on ipad2

    Tap  Settings / Safari.
    Not the same as Safari for Mac but you can select your preferred search engine, select AutoFill, Bookmarks Bar...  etc.
    If you have problems with Safari for the iPad, click the History / Cookies and Cache. That usually helps.

    Why can't my ipad2 and iPhone4 and 5 recognise each other as devices using bluetooth?
    Bluetooth should allow me to connect to other devices to transfer data like photo's, music, files, whatever between my apple devices and non apple devices.
    Other phones allow me to do this..........what is happening here?
    An unhappy apple devices owner.
    I want to know who I complain to if this is how Apple devices operate.
