IPhone 3Gs no longer connects to my Blue Tooth hands free cars
Within the last week, there appears to be a software update to my iPhone 3Gs. Since that time, my phone can no longer be paired with the hands free blue tooth options in both of my vehicles. The first vehicle is a 2010 Lincoln MKX with Sync and my other vehicle is a 2010 Volvo C30. Have other people experienced this? I have updated the connection between the phone and both vehicles. If I cannot get this fixed it looks like my iPhone is useless as a phone with blue tooth.
Problem solved!! I finally managed to pair the SE HCB-100 car kit speakerphone with the 3GS. I surfed the SE web site and it mentioned resetting the speakerphone. Tried it on 'one color ID' but it didn't work so I did it on all 'color IDs' and left it on reset mode when it 'accidentally' was picked up by my 3GS while searching!!! Found 'headset' and then recognised it as HCB-100. One happy guy for the holidays!!!

My iPhone 3GS no longer connects through Bluetooth to my MacBook Air nor my BMW X3. I've made no recent adjustments, it's just stopped functioning. Any ideas? Can this be fixed, or is my iPhone on the way out?

DeanoHi gofroggy08,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
It's possible that the iTunes software didn't update properly. Try the specific steps below for the iPhone first:
iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for Windows
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1538
If the issue is not resolved, you may need to uninstall iTunes and all of it's components, and reinstall the latest version as explained in this article:
iTunes 11.1.4 for Windows: Unable to install or open
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS5376
I hope this information helps ....

Iphone 3GS no longer connects to computer or Itunes.
I have a decomissioned Iphone 3GS that I've been using as an Itouch (I don't use the phone features). Up until today it would connect to my computer and Itunes with no problems. When I had to uninstall a bunch of stuff and reinstall the new Itunes (the update is what screwed everything up) since I had a C++ runtime error R6034. Now I finally have Itunes again however my Iphone no longer wants to connect to my computer or Itunes. There is no beep from the USB no syncing, nada. The only thing it does is charge...which is only sort of helpful. I've tried two different cables, restarted my computer, restarted my Iphone. I just want it to connect so I can get my new music. Does anyone have any suggestions. Preferable if I didn't have to restore my Iphone.

My iPhone 3GS no longer connects to home network but connects to others
I recently moved my router into another room and when I did, I messed it up big time. I fixed it and now the internet does work, BUT my iphone will not connect wirelessly to it. The network shows up on the phone, asks for a passcode and I input the pass and it it's right. It doesn't say it's wrong but it doesn't connect. This is making me mad because I can't be using my carrier's network, 200 MB can go quick when you download music or websites all the time. I'm almost over now, and I can't use my phone while home for internet until our next billing cycle.
SUM UP: Phone won't connect to wireless router anymore.Problem solved!! I finally managed to pair the SE HCB-100 car kit speakerphone with the 3GS.

IPhone 3GS no longer works with bluetooth since ios 4.3.2 update
Hi all. Since the ios 4.3.2 update my iPhone 3GS no longer works correctly with the bluetooth in my car (2006 Acura TL). I know it's not an issue with the car and the only thing that has changed is the update with the phone. Anybody else having this issue? I have unpaired, tried to re-pair, reset the network settings, reset all of the settings, and did a restore. I'm at a loss with what to do next.
Any thoughts?
ThanksIts becoming a problem of epic proportions...so many people are having the exact same problem...I have a Feb 2010 Toyota Land Cruiser Series 200 and since upgrading to OS 4 my USB function no longer works like it did before the upgrade.
My Apple has become a LEMON!!
Would be nice to hear that Apple recognises there is a problem...buut maybe they are too busy counting all their money to care!! -

My iPhone 4 no longer connects to my car or alarm clock after a recent sync to my computer. The message at I get when trying to. Connect is "this accessory is not optimized for the device" or something like that. Anyone know how to fix this?
Hello there philp_69,
If I understand correctly it sounds like your phone hasnt been recognized in iTunes on your PC since the last couple of updates. I would use the troubleshooting in the following article which will walk you through the steps one by one.

My iphone 3gs will not connect to itunes and it says that I need to do a system restore. It also says that I need to enter my password on the iphone to connect to itunes but I can not do this because the phone is in emergency phone call mode only.
Turn your phone off and connect your cable to the computer, but not the device just yet. Start up iTunes. Now, hold down the home button on your phone and plug it in to the cable - don't let go of the button until iTunes tells you it's detected a phone in recovery mode. Now you can restore to factory settings.
Unfortunately, the data on your phone is already gone if you're seeing the connect to iTunes logo. -
my iphone will no longer connect to my home wifi. it recognises it, but the searching cirlce is constant next to network name. there are three laptops and another iphone on the same wifi that have no connectivity issues. i have reset the network settings but that did not help. the issue started last week when the second iphone was introduced to the house, could this be the cause?
No.
Any problem connecting your iPhone to any other wi-fi network besides your own? -
Iphone 5 no longer connects to my PC after last update OS8.1
Firstly I am not a "tech" expert and really do not understand the whole lingo etc - in fact I find it VERY overwhelming whenever I have an issue that needs to be solved with all the massive volume of technical jargon thrown around and end up being totally lost and frustrated - so if there is anyone who can help that will be just wonderful.
I have an I-phone 5 and a Toshiba PC which runs Windows 7 - easy so far.
I use my phone for a small business (otherwise I wouldn't have one at all) and when I go to do quotes I take photos and then downloaded them to my PC for future reference (I have ALWAYS been able to do this by simply plugging my phone into a free USB port (always use the same one for all devices) and away we go all works great.
HOWEVER, since the last 2 updates my Iphone will no longer connect to my PC. After the first one was botched (the one that was recalled quickly) and OS8.1 (which I know have) - whenever I do this exact same procedure my Iphone does no longer appear.
How do I make it work again - the simple, easy, straightforward way that it used to (I guess that since the Apple thing has now been "improved" and made "better and easier" for me it will be impossible to do?Hello there philp_69,

Iphone 5 no longer connects to wifi. Finds network, password correct but then ' cannot connect to network'. Connected to network till today, connects to other networks. Other iphone 5's are able to connect to this network. Please help?
I have turned the phone on and off and reset the network settings. I have also turned the wifi switch on and off.Call Apple support or take it to an Apple store for evaluation. If it is defective they will replace it.

Since installing iCloud, my iPhone 3GS no longer syncs with my Outlook2010 Calendar and Outlook2010 Contacts. I don't know what else to try, short of resetting the iPhone and completely reloading as a new device. Any ideas, anyone?
It's good to know. The Apple instructions for loading iCloud on a PC just seem to have either overlooked or hidden this limit. The larger problem is that it partially works: partially and erratically. So clean-up is great fun.
