I cannot get my iPad Bluetooth to find another Bluetooth device

I cannot get my iPad Bluetooth to find another Bluetooth device. I want to play scrabble with my iPad and iPhone and they do not see each other. Any ideas?

Hello:
The devices you mention have limited Bluetooth connectivity (peer-to-peer).

  • I cannot get my iPad 2 to work with VPN provider.

    I cannot get my iPad 2 to work with my VPN service provider.  Using OS 4.3.3.  iPad purchased in the USA.  Have heard there are issues with iPad 2 and VPN support.  Any suggestions?

    You can try this ... hold down on the sleep button and the power button at the same time for about 10 seconds until you see the Apple logo on the screen, release the buttons and see if the iPad restarts and you can use it.

  • I cannot get my ipad icon to appear in iTunes

    I have gone through all the tutorials that seem to apply, but cannot get my ipad icon to appear on the left side of my itunes screen so that I can synch the 2 together. I am not an expert, and need some help here. Thank you so much.

    I will assum that you are using the latest version of iTunes 11. Do you even see the devices heading in the sidebar or do you even see the sidebar? If not, go to View>Show Sidebar from the iTunes menu so that it is visible.
    If you have done all of that and the iPad still doesn't show up.....

    Not knowing if you are using WiFi or cable syncing, you can simply try, quitting iTunes, reboot the Mac and restart the iPad and see if that helps.

  • I cannot get my iPAD air iOS 8.1.2 to work with my epson WF 3640.  Driver is 9.31.  Is the driver of the epson up to date with the iOS?  Help please

    Hi otterSD, 
    When it comes to using AirPrint and it is not seeing your printer, the check the troubleshooting below to get it sorted out. You have already made sure it is on the same wireless network, so check to make sure that the printer does not need attention with any errors and check Epson’s website if there is any firmware updates for the printer. 
    About AirPrint
    http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201311
    If you're unable to print
    Check these things if you are unable to print, or if you see the message "No AirPrint Printers Found."
    Make sure your printer has paper, and enough ink or toner installed.
    Make sure your printer is connected to the same Wi-Fi network as your iOS device.
    Make sure your printer has power and is turned on. Try turning your printer off and then back on again to see if it resolves your issue.
    Check to see if your printer has any error lights or indicators displayed on the printer's control panel. Check the documentation that came with your printer to clear any errors displayed.
    Check with your printer's manufacturer to see if any firmware updates are available for your printer. Check your printer's documentation or contact the printer vendor for more information. A firmware update may be available, even if you just bought your printer.
    Take it easy,
    -Norm G. 

  • I cannot get my ipad to print using my wi if printer. It works with my computer

    I cannot get my iPad to print with my wifi printer but it prints from my computer

    Is your printer listed on this page as supporting AirPrint : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4356 ?
    If it doesn't support AirPrint then you could see if the printer manufacturer has their own app in the store which supports it (e.g. Epson have an iPrint app, and HP have an ePrint app). If not then there are third-party printer apps such as Print n Share and PrintCentral Pro which might work with it

  • Cannot get my iphone 4 to connect via bluetooth to another phone or my pc

    I cannot get my iphone 4 to connect via bluetooth to another phone or my PC, despite activating bluetooth on the iphone it just says 'devices' 'searching' 'now discoverable'. I have put the 2 devices very close to each other as well.
    Anybody have any ideas?
    Thanks

    That's because it's not supported. The iPhone supports hands free devices, keyboards and A2DP audio streaming. Bluetooth can only be used to a computer for tethering. Some apps can establish peer to peer connections for gaming and data sharing, but that's it.
    What you're trying to do will NOT work.

    I cannot get my ipad to connect with my wireless router- talk talk.

    Look at iOS Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections  http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1398
    Also try this - Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.

  • TS1368 I cannot get my iPad 1 to connect to iTunes to update my apps.

    Hi,
    I am puzzled at the moment.
    I cannot get my iPad 1 to connect to iTunes to update my Apps.
    I have connection to iTunes to view/buy apps but it wont connect to Apps update.
    I have connection to the internet via safari so I know there is an internet connection????
    I have done a full back up, sync, all software updates are up to date, and I have managed to do the App updates on my iPad 3, Iphone 4GS and iPod Touch without getting the "Cannot connect to iTunes Store. OK." message, but not on the iPad 1???.
    How do I fix this?
    Thanks.

    Have you tried Settings>General>Date and time>Set Automatically>Off. Set the date ahead a year or so, you may have to experiment a little - then try to update the apps? You may get an error message and have to go back and correct the date and then it might work again.

  • We cannot get our Ipad Air to charge.  We have tried the wall plug and the computer plug in.  It just gives us a message saying it's not charging.

    We cannot get our iPad Air to charge.  We have tried the wall plug and the computer plug in.  It just gives a message saying it's not charging.

    Could be the charger, cable or iPad. Plug the USB cable into your computer. It may say "Not Charging", however, it is charging slowly and will verify that the cable is good.
    Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
    The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W or 12W (5W on Mini) USB Power Adapter. iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter (5W). When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (2.5W, most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge very slowly (but iPad indicates not charging). Make sure your computer is on while charging iPad via USB. If iPad is connected to a computer that’s turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPad battery will continue to drain.
    Apple recommends that once a month you let the iPad fully discharge & then recharge to 100%.
    How to Calibrate Your Mac, iPhone, or iPad Battery
    http://www.macblend.com/how-to-calibrate-your-mac-iphone-or-ipad-battery/
    At this link http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/galaxy-tab-android-tablet,3014-11.html , tests show that the iPad 2 battery (25 watt-hours) will charge to 90% in 3 hours 1 minute. It will charge to 100% in 4 hours 2 minutes. The new iPad has a larger capacity battery (42 watt-hours), so using the 10W charger will obviously take longer. If you are using your iPad while charging, it will take even longer. It's best to turn your new iPad OFF and charge over night.

    In rare instances when using the Camera Connection Kit, you may notice that iPad does not charge after using the Camera Connection Kit. Disconnecting and reconnecting the iPad from the charger will resolve this issue.

    Are you using the USB cable? Have you updated to the latest version of iTunes? Have you tried booting your iPad into Recovery Mode and restoring it from the latest backup?
