How do you get iPhone 5 to connect to iMac through bluetooth?

How do you get iPhone 5 to connect to iMac through bluetooth?
I know the basic steps, but all I get is pairing unsuccessful. I'm using an older bluetooth, would that make a difference? I got connected once with a Motorola bluetooth, but can't reconnect. TIA!

Note that you need to have Personal Hotspot set up with your carrier and on your iPhone before you can connect the computer.

  • How do you keep iPhone charged while connected to carplay

    How do you keep iPhone charged in the car while it is connected to the cable for CARPLAY?

    The next time you connect your iPad to your laptop, click on your iPad under Devices and then click on the Apps tab on top. Once it opens and lists all your apps in iTunes on the left (both iPad and iPhone ), simply uncheck the boxes next to the iPhone apps you wish to leave off from future syncs. They will still be in iTunes and available for your iPhone, but won't be synced to your iPad. Click on Apply.

  • How do you get iPhone to display horizontally

    How do I get my iPhone 5s to display horizontally?

    Fist make sure Rotation lock is NOT on. Swipe up from the very bottom of your screen to reveal the Control Center. The Rotation Lock icon is the circular arrow around a small padlock. Make sure that is not on. It should not be White.
    If Rotation Lock is not on all you have to do is rotate the iPhone while holding vertical. Those apps that support rotation will rotate. Many apps and the Home screens, however do not Rotate.
    To check rotation start Safari. Then try and rotate the screen. Safari does support rotation. Report back if you are still having problems.

  • How do you start the hardware test on an imac with bluetooth keyboard

    How do you start the apple hardware test on an imac with a bluetooth keyboard as the instructions is to press the D key whilst restarting? And of course the imac cant see the keyboard whilst booting up as the bluetooth connection has yet to be established

    Have you tried following the directions for running it from the DVD? The instructions are on the Hardware Test link.If you are correct and it cannot due to the wireless keyboard not making a connection you will need to borrow a wired USB keyboard.

  • Help-how do you move iphone photos into iphoto on iMac??

    I have 4,814 photos in my iphoto library (categorized into 114 events). On my iphone 4, I have 1,028 photos taken exclusively with the phone. Can someone tell me how to get all of my iphone photos into my iphoto library on my iMac?
    Thanks----

    Never mind..figured it out. Just in case anyone else is dense like me, just plug iphone into iMac, then launch iphoto. In iphoto, the iphone will be listed on the left as a device and all your iphone photos will show up to the right. Simply click import at the bottom of the screen and you're on your way.

  • How do you get a cd out of the imac g5 drive if the computer doesn't know it's in there.  I've tried shutting it off and holding the mouse button, but nothing works because the computer can't eject what it isn't registering to be there in the first place.

    I can't get access to the cd that is probably slid past where it is supposed to go.  The computer doesn't note it is in there.  This happened once before and I used another cd to tap it into place, and then I could eject the cd.  It's a library music cd and nothing I've done to eject it, works.  The dvd drive is empty to the computer, even though I've tried to trick it by getting it to burn a cd or dvd.  It says insert disc.  Hope someone knows how to pop it into place or open the thing up to get access to the drive.  That cd is due! 

    power off your machine.  hold down your left mouse button.  power on your machine.  This should eject the cd.

    Here is a web page on twelve ways to eject the cd.

    You indicate you are running on a g5, but 10.6 doesn't run on on a G5.
    On a PowerPC-based Macintosh (but not an Intel-based Macintosh), you may use Open Firmware to eject a CD or DVD disc when normal methods for ejecting it have not succeeded.
    Immediately after the startup sound, press and hold the key combination Command-Option-o-f. Enter commands:

  • HT204387 How do I get my 4S to connect to my Cars bluetooth?

    I have a 2012 Mazda. It has Bluetooth Built in. When I had my BlackBerry, I never had any trouble getting it paired.
    I just got my iPhone and when i try to get it to pair, it doesnt even show my car as an option. it stays on "Searching..." and cant locate my car.
    Any advice?
    Please & Thanks.

    Apple is a bit more picky with the bluetooth, I have done some reasearch on your car and currently there are problems with iphone and mazda vehicles with bluetooth, are you 100% sure in your car manual there is no reset button?

  • How do you get DHCP to work through a controller?

    I thought I asked this question in the past...
    If you add a controller to an external network in a soho environment, how do you get the controller to pass DHCP requests through it.  In order to get it to work, I have to set up a DHCP scope in the controller, which is not what I want to do.  I want to use the existing DHCP service.  The controller doesn't seem to want to send the requests through.           

    "Also of you use ISE with the dhcp probe for finger printing, you need to disable it .."
    I'm dealing with this exact issue now. You can't simply put ISE in as a secondary DHCP server for the WLAN because it doesn't unicast to BOTH primary and secondary server addresses.
    So you're left disabling dhcp proxy and using helper addresses on VLAN SVI's, which is fine if you want *ALL* of your WLANs to use an external DHCP server. In this case we'd like the Guest users to get DHCP addresses from the WLC (they get tunneled to a mobility anchor in a DMZ where there is no DHCP server) and the regular users to use the SVI helper addresses so that the DHCP packets can also be sent to ISE for proper profiling.
    I guess we're kind of stuck with it and may have to get the customer to stand up a DHCP server in their DMZ, I see no other way around it at this point.
