  • Can't Pair iPhone to iPad using Personal Hotspot

    Hello. I have an iPhone3GS and an iPad (WiFi only). I recently updated my iPhone to use the new 4.3 software and see that it now has the "Personal Hotspot" option. I called AT&T and activated the functionality. However, it appears that I can only use the "Hotspot" via bluetooth or USB.
    That's OK but I am trying to connect it to my Ipad. I cannot seem to figure out how to pair the iPhone to the iPad. In the Bluetooth screen, neither of them will show the other. Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.

  • HT204387 Can you pair iphone to ipad2 via Bluetooth

    Just wondering if it's possible to pair apple devices to each other via Bluetooth or do I need to find an app

    No.
    There is no reason to do so.

  • How can I pair iPhone 6  / 8.1 with Audi and Mercedes until 8.1 is fixed?

    How can I pair iPhone 6/8.1 with Audi and Mercedes

    Generally your put the vehicle into discovery mode, turn Bluetooth on for the phone and the two should discover each other. I don't know what you mean about getting 8.1 fixed, as it is working just fine for me in my vehicle. Try going into the phone and removing the car(s) from the phone list. Turn off Bluetooth. Go into Settings>General>Reset Network Settings. Do a reset on the phone, hold the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple Logo and release. The phone will reboot. Go into the vehicle(s) and remove all reference to the phone from the vehicle list. Turn the car off, then back on. Put the vehicle's system into discovery/pairing mode. Turn Bluetooth on for the iPhone. The two should pair after following any additional instructions from the vehicle's user guide, such as entering a PIN code.

  • Can't pair iphone 5c to ipad mini

    Both devices will pair with a Bose soundlink mini, and the iphone has paired successfully to my car Jabra. I've turned each device on/off, turned bluetooth button on/off for good measure. Both tell me to have the other turned "on and in range", [which they are and in the same room]and that the pairing was unsuccessful. House has wifi.
    Iphone 5c is 32GB  version 8.1.2
    Ipad mini is 32GB version 8.1.2   
    Thanks for any help.

    No. The iPhone is not designed to pair with an iPad or a computer via Bluetooth except for personal hotspot and then only if your cellular plan supports it. It does use Bluetooth for things like Continuity and Airdrop but in those cases Bluetooth must be turned on for both devices but they are not paired. The following has more information including a link to the Bluetooth Profiles the iPhone does support: Bluetooth: Why can't I pair my iPhone or iPad with my computer?

  • Can't pair iPhone 5s with Macbook Pro via Bluetooth

    I have an iPhone 5s and Macbook Pro with retina display (running on iOS 8.0.2 and Yosemite respectively). For some reason, my iPhone can never see my MBPr but the MBPr can see the iPhone. Pressing the "Pair" button on in the Bluetooth setting panel in OS X will trigger the pairing confirmation to show up on my iPhone. After confirming the pair request, the devices remain connected for no more than 2 seconds. Then they just disconnect. (The status is "Not connected" underneath my iPhone on the Devices list in OS X)
    This has been bugging me for a while, even before I upgraded to iOS 8 and Yosemite. I was hoping the upgrade will solve the issue but apparently not. My iPad  on the other hand has no problem in connecting and remaining connected to my MBPr. That's just baffling.
    Just some context: the reason why I wanted to connect my MBPr and my iPhone via Bluetooth is because I want to use my my iPhone as the hotspot. Yes, I can use the USB cable, but can't blame me for trying the wireless route (And no, connecting via wifi doesn't  work)
    Any help is appreciated!

  • Having multiple iDevices, messaging is becoming a nuisance. I can disable on iphones and iPad, but but I'd still like texting on macbook pro but not group. How to disable, other than delete app?

    Ok, new to this, sorry for long title, thought I was in text/message part. I have two iPhones, and iPad, and a MacBook Pro. Invoking messaging and receiving on two iPhones and an iPad was cute in the beginning but now it's beyond useful. i've solved the problem on iPhones just by turning off messaging, but find nothing in settings to turn off messaging on the MacBook Pro. I'm assuming that turning off messaging on my phones reverts to SMS tho' not sure what Apple uses if not SMS.
    I do not want iPhone messages being received on my MacBook Pro. How do I de-authorize, can't seem to find anything in settings and don't want to delete MESSAGE.APP  as who knows if I want it in future.
    Thanks in advance. All deviced up to date with software, and am using Mt. Lion on MacBook.

    HI,
    The iOS Messages app send either iMessages or SMS depending on the receiver.
    If it is Off then you can't send SMS either.
    Turn Messages back On in the iPhone.
    Go to Setting > Messages > Send and Receive and delete the Apple ID (And any other email) you listed for iMessages
    You will get a warning alert that the ID will be deleted across all devices (and it included Messages on the Mac)
    The Messages app on the Mac can have iMessages turned Off.
    Two ways to do this.
    Simplest is to go to  Messages Menu > Preferences > Accounts and Untick the Enable this Account Box.
    The second is to use the Sign Out Button (in OS X 10.8.2 which has updated Messages to version 7.0.1)
    The Second logs you out and removes the Apple ID from the iMessages Account settings.

  • Can't pair iPhone Remote App in 3.0

    After updating to 3.0 I now can't pair my iPhone Remote App with my ATV. I had it paired at one point in the past. Since I've done a factory reset of the ATV and today upgraded to 3.0. The option to even add an iPhone in ATV is greyed out and the option to select ATV on the iPhone is also greyed out.

    I am having the same problem in that the iphone does not even show up under the remote section on ATV. I have three ATV units and it does the same thing on all of them. They all were accessible using the remote app in the past. Had no issues previously with pairing the iphone as a remote. Updated remote application just the other day and it still is not working. Anybody have a fix. My network is fine we have tons of devices that use it daily. ATV's are connected through ethernet.

  • Can you connect iPhone and iPad to iTunes at same time?

    Just received my new iPad2 and it will not show up in iTunes. I have my iPhone connected for a long time, but even if I disconnect it the iPad does not show up.
    Any Ideas?

    What if you manually quit iTunes?
    I can see why iTunes would not want you to try to sync two devices at the same time, but I don't see why both can't be attached. I guess that's just how they designed it. Probabaly makes sense. But if you quit out of iTunes (and iPhoto if that's running too), then I bet both devices would take a charge at the same time.
    By the way, I set my iPhone and iPad to NOT sync automatically - so they don't cause iTunes to launch when attached.

  • Can't pair iPhone 3G 3.0 with Unibody Macbook

    I've updated my iPhone 3G to 3.0, but I can't pair it with any of my macs.
    I've tried:
    15" unibody Macbook Pro (last. gen, no SD slot)
    13" unibody Macbook
    24" iMac (latest gen.)
    It pairs fine with my XP laptop.
    When I pair it, it seems to work ok, I get the popup on the phone screen, "confirm you see XXXXX on the computer "Name"", I tap pair, and then nothing happens and on OSX, it says there was an error pairing.
    What's up?

    I had a similar problem with my iPhone and Macbook.
    What I did that did work was this:
    1) Make sure bluetooth is turned ON on your iPhone, but tethering off
    2) System Preferences
    3) Bluetooth
    4) + Sign to add device (Launches Bluetooth Setup Assistant)
    5) Click Continue
    6) Select Mobile Phone, Click Continue
    7) Click Continue to let it gather information
    8) It will show a passcode, and this should also appear on the iPhone
    9) Click allow/accept or whatever is says on the iPhone when promoted with the code
    10) It will appear like its waiting for something else, just click continue on the Bluetooth assistant and it should continue the rest of the process.
    11) It should then create that Bluetoon Pan network connection
    What was failing for me before was after clicking allow/accept on the iPhone I was waiting thinking it should automatically detect this on the Bluetooth Setup Assistant on the mac, at which point it would fail.

  • Can't pair iPhone

    Why is it that I can't pair my iPhone 4 to my son's iPod Touch 4G? It seems a bit ridiculous to not allow Apple devices to connect via bluetooth.

    Because this is not, and never has been, a feature of either iphone or ipod touch.
    You can play some peer-to peer games/apps between iphones/ipods, but it is specific to those apps.
    File sharing is NOT supported via bluetooth.

  • Can I pair iPhone to iMac to utilise Bluetooth function?

    Hi everyone,
    I currently own one of the first iMacs built in 2006 that were originally built for the education sector. This model doesn't have a Bluetooth card so obviously I can't use any wireless peripherals with it.
    But my question is whether I can use my iPhone 4 as a substitute. Is there any way to pair the iPhone with my iMac and use it as a Bluetooth access point?
    I'm planning on getting a Magic Trackpad for it and I don't really want to buy an adaptor if I can somehow do this.
    Thanks in advance for all the help!

    The iMac must have Bluetooth too in order to pair with another Bluetooth device. So the answer is no, if your iMac doesn't have Bluetooth you cannot any Bluetooth wireless devices to it. You may however use your Iphone as an access point for wi-fi if you do not have Wi-Fi access, you will need to check with your carrier to see how this is done and what the additional costs would be.

  • Can't pair iphone ios 8.1 with mac

    Am running Yosemite on my Mac and cannot get handoff to work. Tried to pair iphone with the mac and haven't been able to do it. Keep getting not connected on bluetooth.Am supposed to be able to get phone calls on Mac and make them using Contacts. No to both.

    Exact same problem on my end. 
    MBA 2012 Yosemite with an iPhone 5s 8.1
    Not only is the phone NOT pairing with my iMac, I can't seem to get handoff to work. When trying to pair in the system preferences, it shows that the phone is connected for a split-second, then I get the "Network Unavailable" message also.

  • Can't sync iphone with ipad

    Hi All,
    I have searched the data base for answers, but none provided a workable solution. What I am having an issue with is having data pushed (through iCloud) between one device over to the other. From iPhone to iPad and vice versa. In particular, when I take a photo or video I am looking for it to appear on the "other" device. I followed all the instructions and all my settings are correct. I even followed recommendations from this forum about resetting the devices, but I still have no result.  What anI doing wrong? Is my apple ID bad? If yest how can I check it? I a mable to sign into iCloud with my OD so I suspect it is correct.
    Not sure what to do.  Thanks for all the help.
    Karchi

    I don't use iCloud for other stuff, but I do use photo stream and it works quite well. Take a photo on my iPad and as soon as my Touch is on wifi, the photo will show up.
    never tried it with videos but the same premise should apply
