HT204368 trying to pair jawbone bluetooth device to new 5s iphone ... just searches endlessly; what should I do?

I'm trying to pair my jawbone bluetooth device to my new 5s iphone but the phone just searches endlessly, what should I do?

to pair a headset one needs to put the headset in pair /discovery mode it's not in that constant because that would mean their battery would run out very quickly
read the manual of the headset how you put it into pairing mode

  • My iPad wont locate a Bluetooth device. Bluetooth is on, the Logitech keyboard is on, and the iPad just searches. What should I do?

    My iPad wont locate a Bluetooth device. Bluetooth is on, the Logitech keyboard is on, and the iPad just searches. What should I do?

    This happened to me. I determined that my keyboard was paired with some other device (iPad or iPhone). I had to find the device which was paired with the keyboard, unpair it from that device, and then the new device that I wanted to pair it with could discover the keyboard. Bluetooth devices already paired with something cannot be discovered. There needs to be a better way.

  • Have had to re-pair all Bluetooth devices since iOS 7

    It seems that I've had to re-pair all bluetooth devices with my iPhone and iPad since upgrading to iOS 7.  Was this expected or is there some issue with iOS 7 that is affecting existing bluetooth pairings?
    Has Apple posted any knowledge base articles on this yet?
    Thanks,

    WiseJD's comments are fascinating to me, because I had the opposite situation.  My iPads, with which I have never used Bluetooth, both came up with Bluetooth "On" after updating to iOS 7.  I was surprsed by this.
    As I recall, my iPhone also had Bluetooth on after the upgrade.
    By the way, I also have a Lexus and can report no pairing issues since the update.

  • Is anyone else having issues pairing their bluetooth device to the new iphone 6?

    Is anyone else having problems with pairing their bluetooth devices like Blue Ant or Jabra to your iphone 6?

    Hi Diana,
    There are dozens of threads and posts regarding this topic in this forum alone, and probably a lot more in other forums on the Web: it's a known software issue affecting iDevices running iOS 8.0.x, and it won't probably be fixed by Apple until they release iOS 8.1, in about two weeks, maybe less.
    I too would prefer to use my (old but reliable) Sony Ericsson Bluetooth headset to listen to my music, but for now, I'm back to the regular cable one that came with my iPhone 6. It's not half-bad, but no match, sadly.

    I'm trying to connect my Bluetooth JBL speakers to my Macbook Pro but it isn't working. I can't seem to find Bluetooth Setup Assistant because I updated my laptop. What should I do?

    Make sure you set the speakers as discoverable, which usually involves holding down a button for a few seconds. Go to System Preferences / Bluetooth and you should be able to add it.

    You can disable autoupdate by following these steps:
    Go to main menu > Tools > Options > click on Advanced tab > click on Update tab and then click on the round radio button that says ''Never check for updates (not recommended: security risk)''
    Refer the attached screenshot

  • I just rent a movies from my imac. I tried to move the movie to my ipad and when i tried to watch the movie I couldnt. It was all black. What should I do?

    I just rented a movie from my imac and moved to my ipad. When i tried to watch the movie i couldn't. Help.... what should I do?

    Is it just the one film that is showing a black screen, or does the Videos app appear to be frozen ? If it's the complete app then try searching for the name of one of your videos on the iPad's spotlight search screen - swipe your first homescreen to the right, type in it's name, and if it finds it tap on it to see if it plays.
    If that doesn't work then try closing the Videos app completely : from the home screen (i.e. not with the Videos app 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Videos app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
    A third option if the two above don't work is a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

    My Ipod nano says its locked and screens on and it's staying frozen.  I have tried pressing the menu and select button simultaneously and still not reset.  What should I do?

    Right click on the iPod Nano icon.  "Eject" should pop up.  At least that is the way it works on Macs.
