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

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.

Pair phone to Acura hands free link not working

I've deleted all paired phones and other Bluetooth devices. I still am unabl

Hi and welcome to the community! Since you're new please be sure that you have checked out our Discussion guidelines.
In all honesty this sounds like a compatibility issues, I suggest contacting the Manufacturer of the BT device and asking if this device is compatible or not, they may even be able to supply firmware update instructions.
You could also try resetting the in car BT as well, this would remove all previous BT profiles for other devices, which may be causing an issue.
I apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.

Cannot pair my IPhone with iPad 3 using Bluetooth

I bought a wireless music system and my iPhone 5 is pairing with it using Bluetooth but my iPad 3 is not. They are also not pairing with each other. What I am doing wrong

You can't. It can only be done through iTunes.

Using iPhone in car speakers and talking hands free without bluetooth ?

Just got a new car with an AUX in - works for using iPod music when on AUX mode in the car. This is no problem. But as I am looking at various options for phone functions (handsfree) in the car, just wondering : although I have used the speakerphone from time to time without other connection, can I do the following : use the AUX in the car to get the voice of the person I am talking to, and just speak freely (as I would do in speaker-phone on the iPhone) so we both can have a clear conversation ?
Which settings would I choose for that on the iPhone ? (I assume if I click speakerphone mode, this would not work with the AUX-out, or would it ?... Then what if I get a phone call (while in AUX mode in the car) while I play music in this mode (from iPhone of course) ?
In other words, can I completely avoid using any kind of external bluetooth device (from a GPS or other)??
Thanks

Yes that works, use the speakerphone mode. Some people report that the callers hear themselves via the car speakers and iPhone mic. It won't cost anything to try it and see if it meets your requirements.

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".

I phone compatibility with hands free car systems

I purchased an I phone which replaced a Palm Treo 650 (verizon). It worked perfectly.When I am using my in car hands free system, the I phone Tries to work but the voices break up,especially at he beginning. When I am speaking I phone to I phone it is almost impossible to understand the conversation. I phone to land line is better.
I phone to I phone not thru the handsfree is perfect.There seems to be a compatibility problem. My device is bluetooth.

There are several threads on this subject that you can use the search function for... I suggest you make sure to mention what in-car system you are using (car make and model), since this is about the most important piece of information. Also, you might try the forums at edmunds.com that have lots of related threads organized by auto make and model. For me, my Treo 700p worked, but had some issues, with my '07 Toyota/Lexus system. The iPhone works perfectly.

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.

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

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.

#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.

Compatibility between the iPhone 6 and certain vehicles, and the hands free connectivity in those vehicles?

How can I findout about the compatibility between the iPhone 6 and certain vehicles, and the hands free connectivity in those vehicles?
I am interested in the iPhone 6 but have several meetings that have to call into for work. Where can I find out about the compatibility with iPhone 6 and if there are issues I need to be aware of for connecting to hands free option in the car?
Please point me to the right direction. The dealership was useless in helping me. I figured Verizon can be more helpful.

ShaM1,
I understand the importance of the bluetooth compatibility between your new device and your car. What make and model is your vehicle?
Here is the information that Verizon Wireless has on Bluetooth Car Kit compatibility; http://www.verizonwireless.com/support/how-to-use-bluetooth-car-kit-compatibility/. However, Apple does not have any information listed here. We can assume that the latest and greatest iPhone 6 has the technology to be compatible with most vehicles. If you'd like to discover further information I'd suggest contacting Apple directly; 800-275-2273.

Thanks, this was the clue I needed to figure it out.
From Settings you can pull up Control Center.
In Control Center you can enable "Access from within Apps" (also "Access from Lockscreen")
Now when I'm playing music, I can swipe up from the bottom and a little control center window slides up. Neat - this is new since my old iPod. On this window, the name of the current Bluetooth connection appears. Tap on that, and a list of connected Bluetooth items appears. I just tap on the one I want to connect to and I am now playing through the speakers I want.
