  • My 2010 MacBook A1342 will not connect via Bluetooth to my iPhone 5S

    I am able to connect my 2010 MacBook Pro to my iPhone 5s in order to use the Internet connection via Bluetooth. However I just purchased my son a 2010 white MacBook A1342 via Bluetooth to my iPhone 5s in order to use the Internet, I received a message on my phone that says "MacBook not supported".
    I am able to pair other Bluetooth devices to this same MacBook and I know that I can connect via Wi-Fi but I would like to know why this is not working.
    Thanks!

    And I am also trying to connect it to my iPhone 5s via Bluetooth***

  • How can I tranfer audio files from my iPhone 5 to my laptop?

    Is there a way to transfer audio files (not music but an audio recording) from my iPhone 5 to my laptop?

    Yes, you will need to connect the phone to the computer and iTunes, and check sync voice memos on the Music tab.

  • Why can't I get my iPad to connect via bluetooth to my iPhone 5s?

    I never have been able to get my iPhone 4s or the new iPhone 5s to connect with my iPad via Bluetooth. Both are running the latest 7.0.3 software.

    What are you trying to accomplish by this type of connection? iOS devices use Bluetooth to connect to dado phones, speakers, some keyboards and a few other devices. Bluetooth on iOS devices is not set up to connect two iOS devices.

  • I can't connect via Bluetooth with my JBL Flip with iOS 7.1

    Since the iOS 7.1 update, my iPhone 4s won't pair with my JBL Flip. It shows up as a nearby device in Bluetooth settings, but I am unable to pair with it or connect at all. Please help!

    I had the same problem with iPad Air and iPhone 5S.  Try this- go to settings, Bluetooth, devices, JBL Flip - tap the "i" to "Forget This Device".  Then turn the JBL Flip on, wait for a beep, then hold the power/pair button down until it flashes red/blue and you should hear 2 beeps.  This should pair it it your device, then tap JBL Flip on your phone (while the blue/red is flashing), it should connect now.

  • Is it possible to stream music via bluetooth from an iphone 4S to a Windows 8 pc?

    I have a Windows 8 laptop (HP Envy 6-1113TX) with bluetooth capabilities, I thought it would be straightforward to pair the phone with the PC and stream music to my laptop speakers...not so, both devices report being connected but I can't seem to establish any audio services - has anybody been able to do this?

  • Can't connect Face Time from my iPhone 4S to my iMac

    Hello, I have a problem similar to one many people seem to be having, in that I can't get Face Time to connect. The difference with me is that I can Face Time connect from the iMac to the iPhone 4S but not vice versa. When I try the latter, the connect button appears momentarily on the iMac before disappearing and an alert appearing on the iphone saying that the email address I'm trying to contact "is busy"
    The same applies to my MBP
    Any suggestiions for fixes
    I am in the UK, by the way, using O2 with wifi.

    are you using the same Apple ID on both devices? If so, that is the problem. Its much like trying to call your own phone number with a regular phone, you'll be forwarded straight to voicemail.
    let me know if this helps.

  • How can I connect to Bluetooth of my iPhone when the screen is off ? (Bluetooth is ON)

    I need to "Page" my iPhone whenever its Bluetooth is ON. I couldn't figure it out how long is the listening time of the Apple's Bluetooth when its in Idle mode. Does anybody know how is the procedure of Apple devices to listen for available paging? I am not talking about "Inquiry" for the first time. Assume that I know the MAC address of embedded Bluetooth in iPhone.

    A backup of a device with a newer version of iOS cannot be retored to a device with an older version.  The solution is to connect to itunes and update the new device's iOS, then perform a restore.

  • How can i get my pictures from my iphone 4s onto my laptop? (windows 7)

    i took some pictures with my iphone 4s and i want to transfer them onto my laptop. Now, my iphone connects to my lap through itunes but not on 'my computer' and it says that i have some photos but there is no tab on the side i can click on to see the photos or put them onto my laptop. any solutions?

    Read this...  import photos to your computer...

    As an added note, if you are trying to use photo stream, that will only work on newly taken photos.  Existing photos when photo stream is turned on will not sync to the stream.  Use the connection to your computer as descibed in the link as the way to get photos to your computer.

  • My Laptop was stolen. How can I get my photos from my iphone onto my new laptop that are in albums, not the camera roll?

    I have photos in albums that are stored on my iphone. My laptop that I had everything backed up on was stolen. I would like to be able to re-sync my iphone with my new laptop (Windows 8) without losing the photos that are in my albums. I'd prefer not to have to individually email them all to myself and I have everything off the camera roll already. I would appreciate any and all help. Thanks.

    Also, ALL of the photos were taken by my iphone.

  • Can you send files via bluetooth from a imac to an ipad mini

    Just purchased an ipad mini and was wanting to transfer some pictures via bluetooth from my Imac to my Ipad mini? Is this possible?
    They are paired but when it goes to transfer files, it says connection lost. Is there another way of transfering files from the computer to the ipad mini?
    Any help is much appreciated.

    No, Bluetooth on the iPad is aimed at devices such as keyboards and heapphones : supported Bluetooth profiles.
    You can sync photos to the iPad via your comptuer's iTunes. Connect and select your iPad on the left-hand sidebar of your computer's iTunes (with iTunes 11 you can enable the sidebar via option-command-S), and on the right-hand side there should be a series of tabs, one of which should be Photos - if you select that tab you can then select which photo folders/albums to sync to the iPad. There is a bit more info on this page. You will need to sync all the photos that you want on the iPad together in one go as only the most recent photo sync remains on the iPad - synced photos can't be deleted directly on the iPad, instead they are deleted by not including them in the next photo sync.
    There are also third-party iPad apps such as Simple Transfer which allow you to copy photos to (and from) the iPad via your wifi network.
    For documents you can use the file sharing section at the bottom of the device's apps tab when connected to iTunes, via wifi, email, dropbox etc.

  • HT204378 2 iOS8.1.1 devices can't connect via BT "Using Keynote Remote with Bluetooth" - HT6112

    I'm unable to get to iOS devices to connect via Bluetooth for Keynote control.  It's described above under the heading "Using Keynote Remote with Bluetooth".  Am I missing something?  I see the article mentions iOS8 so I know it's been updated recently.   I also see that this hasn't worked in the past.  Curious that the articles suggests it can be done now.
    I have 3 iOS devices all 8.1.1.

    Just talked to Bose and learned the solution.
    Reset the speaker ....hold down the bluetooth button until you hear a tone. Delete the Bose in the Bluetooth Device directory on the iPad. When it is automatically rediscovered it will connect.
    Worked for me .....

  • Why can't I connect via Bluetooth on iPhone 5

    I am unable to connect anything via Bluetooth on my iPhone 5. It constantly searches but never finds anything. Help need to be able to use my hands free ear piece. Any advise appreciated :-/

    Typically bluetooth is for an input or output device like speakers, headphones, keyboard....
    i Know it is being used for the continuity and handoff feature.  If that is what you are trying to do, hang on till a user with more experience with those apps replies.  (I do not have an iPhone, so can't use these apps )
