HT204387 Can't find my car hands-free kit

Hi, With iphone 5 I can't find my cars hands-free kit when searching bloutooth, but I can find it and pair it easily with my iPhone 3GS. My car is Cadillac SRX 2012

Try unpairing the iPhone 3GS from your Cadillac, then try pairing the iPhone 5 again.
You can find more troubleshooting info in this Apple doc -> iOS: Troubleshooting car stereo connections
Also, iOS 6 uses AVRCP 1.4 so you may need to update the reciever in the car to make it compatible with with all versions of ACRCP.

Having trouble using my 9720 connecting to car hands free kit

Hi, i am utterly frustrated with my company blackberry 9720 phone. The trouble i am having is with the car hands free kit, my skoda superb uses the bluetooth premium and cannot use the normal hands free setting like with my Iphone. The problem i am having is firstly connecting, i can only use the bluetooth premuim, which completly changes all the setting on the phone i.e turns the network off on the phone and then a screen pops up saying running SAP mode (must use an ittenna in car?), which in turn stops emails from coming in, i can stupidly write texts messages on my dash board and receive them and read them on my dash board while driving. So when i remove the keys from the ignition the phone does not put the phone back to its normal working settings, it keeps the network switched off i have to go to settings and turn the network on. Thirdly when i turn the car on the phone will not connect automatically it says cannot connect to mobile, but if i switch the phone off and on it automatically connects, but if by the grace of god it does connect an second time the phone crashes and resets and then connects five minutes later after reseting. forthly this is not an phone issue it is definatly software as i have been given an second 9720 and the fault is present on both phones.
can anyone help

as I believe it a car bluetooth hands free can only be paired to one device . ie if you wish to pair with another device you would have to reset back to default and search again.... so does the cuve work if you reset the bury and pair again but then your other phone does not work with it ... this is logical as if we drove down a motorway we would pick up loadsa phones.... therefor we can only pair to one device

HT204387 cannot pair phone and car hands free using bluetooth!!! HELP!

I just bought a VW Scirocco 2010&the previous owner used the car handsfree bluetooth with his 2 phones(nokia&blackberry)with no problems.I have iphone 4 and although the car finds the phone,the phone never finds the car; it keeps looking for a device but doesnt seem to find anything &as a result, no pairing.Help!

Thx Laurence.... actually tried doing that but couldnt figure out how to delete the previously paired devices although i followed the manual instructions. i guess have to take the car to VW to do this for me... its also giving me : phone not compatible whenever i try pairing from the car's side. probably cause the phone doesnt recognise the car's bluetooth. i'll let you know if it works

Bluetooth connection to car hands free

i have a motorola car hands free kit installed with my old 6230i the connection was automatic but i now have a 5500 sport this needs to be re-installed every time i get into my van does anyone know why or is the sport a H.O.S

If you try resetting your motorola car kit ( i dont know how) then pair your phone again this should work. also in your phone bluetooth settings see if you can change the motorola kit to automatically authuorise connections. It sound like the kit is still looking for your 6230i which needs to be deleted.

HT204387 how to use synched phone in a car hands free

Hi,
I can't use my 4S phone in my car hands free, it is synched but when I actually talk on phone I have to use the phone in my ear, somehow my setting is changed and I can't get to use the phone hands free, the bluetooth is on, don't know what else to to.

That would be interesting to see an app that's able to do all this and be able to have a keypad to dial a number. Alot of consumers see the iPad as a replacement stereo, if you really look at the features and price between haveing a high-end double din stereo with GPS vs. an iPad/Mini. The high-end stereo w/gps,bluetooth,usb for media storage and all the bells & whistles will cost you well over $1000; As for the iPad.... the iPad already does most of the features that a car stereo can do and alot more, with the exeption of not being able to make a bluetooth calls, but with a price well under $1000 depending on storage space. I have seen that the iPad,& iPad mini has made an impact in the caraudio scene ever since the very first iPad was released. If seeing is believing.... I would suggest to do a search on the web and youtube "ipad in car".

Not allowing bluetooth connection to car hands free

Hi
I have a blackberry curve 8520 and a Bury hands free kit.
Normally as soon as the car is switched on the Bury comes on and starts searching for the blackberry and finds it immediately over the bluetooth and connects without any trouble.
Recently it no longer does this. Now I have to stop the Bury auto searching, turn off the blackberry bluetooth and then turn it back on for the bluetooth to connect.
If I allow for the Bury to keep searching you can see in the wireless networks screen that if briefly connects for a second and then disconnects and continues to do this.
I have restored the Bury to factory reset and it is not the Bury device because my Blackberry Pearl connects fine without any problem, it is my other phone that won't connect.
I have deleted it out of devices, played around with encryption settings and tried every setting I can see.
What is going on? why is my curve not allowing a connection to be made? I don't understand what can have happened for it to suddenly not work.
Any help would be great.
Thanks

as I believe it a car bluetooth hands free can only be paired to one device . ie if you wish to pair with another device you would have to reset back to default and search again.... so does the cuve work if you reset the bury and pair again but then your other phone does not work with it ... this is logical as if we drove down a motorway we would pick up loadsa phones.... therefor we can only pair to one device

Does the ipod nano 7th gen work with Belkin Blue tooth In car hands free? Customer support said it did when I bought it, but the box doesn't say it does and I dont want to open it in case I have to return it.

If the Belkin supports the A2DP (Stereo Bluetooth) profile then it will work.

Where can I find a car charger for my new iPhone 5?

Where can I find a car charger for my new iPhone 5?

I use a power inverter which works great. You can get one that plugs into your car charger for about $30-$50 on Amazon. You just plug it into your car charger and plug the MBP power pack into that.

I think the easiest way to do this is to have the EyeTV app running in one user account and sent via HDMI to the TV, and use a separate user account for Screen Sharing. Both logins can be active at the same time and with Lion you can connect via screen sharing to which ever login you need.
With regards to the Mac video resolution changing, when it is not the current input on your AV receiver. This is 'normal', if the Mac sees no signal it drops down the a lower level. What you need is to buy a HDMI Detective Plus which tricks the Mac in to always seeing a signal and hence it will not drop down the resolution. See http://www.gefen.com/kvm/dproduct.jsp?prod_id=8005
The Mac mini does have an IR receiver. This can be used with the EyeTV app, iTunes, and similar. Yes I believe EyeTV would run for prolonged periods quite happily, it is has been around for a long time and had most of the rough edges polished off. However one issue you will have to deal with is that it does not automatically update its program guide data. For this you might have to write or modify an AppleScript. Elgato support or their user forums will be a lot of help.
You can set EyeTV to convert recordings to an iTunes (Apple TV) compatible format and then delete them from EyeTV.
The HDMI Detective should solve your handshaking problems.

#6680 - connecting car hands-free + speaker to pho...

The 6680 phone fails to operate through the car hands-free unit (amplified speaker + mike). The phone remains in normal mode for receive/call.
The cable connection (plug and cradle is OK) as the phone charges when connected.
Grateful for some comments/help.
MikeS

try disconnecting the conector from the bottom of the cradle and plugging into bottom of the phone, i this works then you have either a dodgy cradle or a poor conncetion, this connector is easily knocked out of place. Has this kit been working ok previously or have you just aquired it.

Can I use my Bluetooth hands free device to listen/watch videos on touch 4g?

I know I can connect my motorola Bluetooth hands free device to my touch 4th gen, but does anyone know what setting to change I order to listen to music and videos through the device?

Go to Settings/General/Bluetooth and sync up the device there. Once done, you should be good to go,...

Battery condition with in car hands free

My iPod touch 2nd Gen has spent most of its life plugged into my Parrot hands free kit in my car, now Ive disconnected it, it seems the battery only lasts a few hours.
Does anyone know if the iPod will automatically bypass the battery when fully charged, ie, keeping the battery in peak condition.

For maximum battery life Apple recommends:
"Use iPod Regularly
For proper maintenance of a lithium-based battery, it’s important to keep the electrons in it moving occasionally. Be sure to go through at least one charge cycle per month. If you use your iPod infrequently (gasp), you might want to add a reminder to your calendar program."
Thus, it appears you have not done that and thus the battery life would be shortened. I conclude that what you see is not unexpected.

Hi there, did u ever figure this out? After all my searching you're the nearest match. I can only find software that allows you to send SMS from your PDA (bluetoothed to your mobile). have also found some Dialer software but that just dials your phone from your PDA and that' it.
I'll dig the links out if you're interested? let me know if you get the handsfree sussed out.
cheers

I saw this kind of software yesterday on a car navigator myguide 3300 and it was pretty cool and I want to find something like that fot PDA too.

IPhone Map & Tom Tom iPhone hands-free kit

Hi everyone - can anyone help me with this teaser?
I recently bought a Tom Tom hands-free kit to use my iPhone 4S in my car. I am having trouble with audio... I have been able to connect the phone with the TT unit via Bluetooth, and after talking to the TT help-line, I chose this setting; Settings>General>Accessibility>Incoming Calls>Headset, but I am still having trouble.
The only audio I can hear via the TT speaker is the phone and Siri. All the other audio is either muted (no Music at all!) or else comes over the phone speaker. While it's a reliaf to be able to use the phone 'hands-free' the main reason I bought the unit in the first place was to use the turn-by-turn directions available from the Maps app, and the voice via the phone speaker is too quiet to be audible while I'm driving - does anyone know which settings need tweaking so I can hear the turn-by-turn voice via the TT unit speaker?

I have just spent a few quiet ( ) minutes going through settings, sitting in the car, and can report that the 'Tom Tom Hands Free' option appears both in the Map app and the Music app, but even though I can pop a tick against it, it don't come out of the TT speaker...
