I have a Garmin 760 and it pairs with my iPhone but it is always getting disconnected and then reconnects moments later. Is there something wrong with what I'm doing? I've updated the firmware to the latest release.
updating the firmware in the iphone is the problem. there's a huge thread somewhere of people having problems with the bluetooth disconnecting with their garmins after they updated their iphones to 1.3:

  • Iphone and garmin gps

    Hello,
    Does anyone know if any of the garmin gps units, specifically the 680, work with the bluetooth on the iphone?

    I have two Nuvi 680s and my iPhone pairs up perfectly. The phonebook works flawlessly, you can dial the number and even bring up the dial pad during a call to use touch tones. You can hang up a call, choose to ignore the call and see the call duration. Recent calls and missed are also shown on the Nuvi.
    All you have to do is pair up the phone with the Nuvi and it will work! Much easier than when I had a Treo650.
    Enjoy!

  • IPhone and Garmin Nuvi GPS

    Besides my Motorolla headset, I managed to pair my iPhone to my Garmin Nuvi 360 GPS with no problems. This particular Nuvi model as well as some other Garmin models have Bluetooth built in. The benefits of this device is that besides the wonderful Nuvi GPS features, the device is also a car kit with speaker and microphone. What I found quite remarkable was that during the pairing, the entire phonebook I have on my iPhone came over as well. So, when someone on that list calls, their name comes up on the touch screen. Or if you want to call someone, either click through or search the directory on the Garmin. Very cool.
    Powerbook   Mac OS X (10.4.4)  

    iPhone works with my Garmin Nuvi 360 via bluetooth, downloaded address book and all, but after a day or two the connection stops working (iPhone says they’re paired, but Nuvi doesn’t show phone icon) and I have to manually set up the connection again. Anyone else having this problem?
    Thanks.

  • IPhone and Garmin Nuvi 660 pair!

    Thought I would mention that the iPhone successfully pair with the Garmin Nuvi 660 via Bluetooth, AND all of the address book entries (including multiple numbers) gets transferred to the Nuvi for use. Great feature to dial while on the road without even taking the iPhone out....

    I have not had any problems; I get in-and-out of the car and each time the two devices have successfully paired. I once turned off BT for a while in the iPhone but had no problems when I turned it back on and then later got in the car to go somewhere. I keep my Nuvi plugged in all the time -- maybe that makes a difference? Do you unplug your Nuvi when leaving the car and then replug it when starting out again?

  • IPhone with Garmin Zumo 550

    For those unfamiliar, the Garmin Zumo 550 is a motorcycle oriented GPS unit that offers an "all-in-one" interface including bluetooth to a cellphone so you can make/receive calls from the Zumo interface.
    Good news! The Zumo connected to the iPhone and paired with it via bluetooth. The make/receive calls from the Zumo (using the iPhone as a gateway obviously) works great. AND, the Zumo retrieves the Address Book from the iPhone in realtime, so you can browse it from the Zumo. Interesting note - when looking at a contact with multiple phone numbers on the Zumo (remember, this is simply talking to the iPhone in real-time - not stored on Zumo), it will show a contact and say "2 phone numbers", so when you click the person's name, it then shows the various numbers with appropriate "mobile", "work", "home" icons!
    Awesome!!

    When a call comes in, does the iPhone send the caller ID information over bluetooth to the Zumo, in order to display it on the GPS screen? Would seem handy to be able to "screen calls" on the GPS without necessarily having to have two devices within eyesight, especially when on a pocket rocket.
    I love my Garmin 378 (large GPS for auto and marine, but alas, no bluetooth), so I might be interested in the Zumo depending on what else it supported re: the iPhone. Thanks for the "heads up" (pardon the semi-pun).

  • Issues between iPhone and external GPS bluetooth

    I have paired my Garmin GPS bluetooth with my 3G iPhone. Seemed to work fine. I could call and talk through the GPS speaker-mic.
    However, realized today that when receiving a call, 1) the GPS ring, and I answer by clicking the answer button on the GPS. However, I do not hear the caller. Only way was to press the speaker ON the iPhone and talk handsfree through the iPhone !!
    Also realized I can use the car speakers when iPhone iis connected through car AUX, and simply use the iPhone mic.
    Cool, BUT : we're talking about driving safe here... What am I missing so there could be a simple way to make or answer calls without having to play around with both iPhone or GPS or disconnecting the AUX cable, whenever a call is coming ??
    Unless (and I hope) I am missing something, I am getting to conclude that iPhone was not designed with mobile-slash-driving security in mind.
    Thanks,
    Rob

    Well, I use a bluetooth headset with my iPhone when I drive. I have familiar people set with different ringtones, so when the phone rings, I know without looking who it is. All I do then is press the button on my headset and talk. Press it again to hang up. If it is my default ringtone, then I just look down at the phone for a second to see who it is and decide whether or not to answer it.
    As far as your other statement about having to perform checks everytime a call comes in, I'm not sure I understand what you are referring to, unless it is my statement about checking the phone. I would recommend that you test that while in the driveway of you home before venturing out on the road. It may be a limitation on that particular version of Garmin. I know not all of them work 100% with the iPhones.
    I agree about searching for a song on the iPod as being dangerous. If you cannot find a handsfree solution, then I wouldn't use the phone except for when you are stopped. I agree it isn't worth a fine or worse!

  • HT1351 Some of the songs I bought from iTunes will not sync to my iPhone.  They show up on my phone, but the letters look faed and I can't play them.  How do I fix this?  I tried restoring my iPhone and it didn't work.

    Sorry, I meant the letters look "faded" not faed.

  • Jabber for iPhone and iPad cannot receive calls

    We currently have Call Manager 9.1.1 and Presence 9.1.1.
    I am starting to use the Jabber Client for iPhone and iPad, but am having trouble receiving calls dialed to a particular extension.
    If I can go settings for the iPhone Jabber client as an example, I am succesffuly connected to all accounts: IM, Phone Services, Voicemail, and WebEx.
    When I go to the keypad, I can succesffuly dial internal extensions and make outbound calls to any numbers and they come accross as using my extension.
    When calling the extension, my desk phone rings, but not the Jabber client.
    Not sure what could be causing this issue to occur for Jabber not receiving the calls.
    Thanks for any suggestions.
    Paul Gaydos 

    Should still work. But would be good to check indial into jabber with the phone unplugged, just for testing purposes.
    also, you have checked the partition and configuration on the TAB device is the same as on the deskphone?
    Can you attach call manager traces when making a test call and attach to the case.  Let us know the extension and device names you have used in the test, and a timestamp of the test.
    thanks

  • How do we split our iCloud accounts but keep one iTunes account so we can share purchased content for our multiple iPhones and iPads?

    How do we split our iCloud accounts but keep one iTunes account so we can share purchased content for our multiple iPhones and iPads?

    You can migrate a copy of the data to a new account, then delete the other person's data from each account.  To do this, on the phone that will be changing accounts, if you have any photos in photo stream that you want to keep on the phone, save these to your camera roll by opening the photo stream album in the thumbnail view, tapping Edit, then tap all the photos you want to save, tap Share and tap Save to Camera Roll. If you have any synced notes that you want to keep on the phone, email these to yourself so you can create new notes in the new account.
    Once this is done, go to Settings>iCloud, scroll to the bottom and tap Delete Account.  (This will only delete the account from this phone, not from iCloud.  The phone that will be keeping the account will not be effected by this.)  When prompted about what to do with the iCloud data, be sure to select Keep On My iPhone.  Next, set up a new iCloud account using a different Apple ID (if you don't have one, tap Get a Free Apple ID at the bottom).  Then turn iCloud data syncing for contacts, etc. back to On, and when prompted about merging with iCloud, choose Merge.  This will upload the data to the new account.  You will create a new icloud email address with you turn Mail to On.
    Finally, to un-merge the data you will then have to go to icloud.com on your computer and sign into each iCloud account separately and manually delete the data you don't want (such as deleting your wife's data from your account, and vice versa).

  • We have three Ipads in our house.  We have one itunes account with multiple devices like two Iphones and Apple TV.   My question is about our three Ipads.   How can I set up the imessaging and facetime on all three devices while only using one Itunes acct

    Okay.  We have three Ipads in our house with only one Itunes account.   When I go into imessaging and facetime on each of the devices, it wants to start switching my wife's cell phone and then the three emails associated with each Ipad to the contact information for all of the Ipads.    As of this morning, only the imessaging and facetime are turned on my wife's iphone and ipad.   My kids imessaging and facetime is turned off.     Do you really have to have an itunes account for each device to make then work???    Any help would be very much appreciated.
    Ryan

    There is only one solution. Each user must have their own separate user account. All of their respective data would be contained in their separate user accounts. This also means each will have a separate iTunes Library. If you all use the same third-party apps, then each will have to purchase their own copies under their own Apple IDs. Some data sharing is possible. See:
    iTunes- How to open an alternate iTunes Library file or create a new one
    iTunes- How to share music and video
    iTunes- How to share music between different accounts on a single computer

  • I currently have one iTunes account for my personal iPod Touch and for my work iPhone and iPad.  Can I create a separate account for work and keep my current account for my personal use - on the same computers?

    I have an iTunes account for my personal iPod Touch - have had for several years.  When my work provided me with an iPhone and now and iPad 2, they all fall under my personal iTunes account.  Is it possible for me to create a separate account for my work devices and apps, while leaving my personal account intact?  I use both my compter at home and at work to sync occasionally.

    A much simpler solution would be to go into Settings > Store and turn off Automatic Downloads

    I set up one apple id for icloud on my iphone and another apple id for ipad.  I cannot use icloud to automatically sync the two.

    How can I delete the incorrect apple id?

  • HT204053 I have one apple id for my iPad and a second apple id for my iPhone and laptop. I just want to use one apple id. How do I delete the apple id on my iPad and make it consistent with the other two devices?

    I have one apple id on my iPad and a second apple id on my iPhone and laptop. I want to use one apple id for everything. I tried wiping my iPad and synching it with my laptop. The old apple id still remains on my iPad. I can't get rid of it. Help.

    On the iPad open Settings/iCloud and delete the account using the button at the bottom. Once deleted log in using the other account. For iTunes Stores use Settings/iTunes & Apps Stores, tapp on the Apple ID at the top then sign out. Once done sign in using the other account. Once you are happy with the changes plug your iPad into your computer to update the backup.

  • If you registrate one Apple ID for each iPhone/iPad, you'll get 5GB on iCloud for each Apple ID, right? I have two iPhones and one iPad  with the same Apple ID, why can't I get 5 GB fo each of them?

    If you registrate one Apple ID for each iPhone/iPad, you'll get 5GB on iCloud for each Apple ID, right? I have two iPhones and one iPad  with the same Apple ID, why can't I get 5 GB fo each of them?

    Actually, everyone missed one point, when a device is priced, the cost of icloud storage space for that device is also included in it that is why they are able to give you 5gb each for each user ID, in nutshell there is nothing free coming with apple device purchase, it is paid for.  What they are trying by giving only 5gb per user ID irrespective of the number of devices used is pure broadlight looting, they take money from you when you buy each device and give you nothing, This is a case of goods and services bought but not fully deliverd ie apple can be suied for discreminatory treatment towards it's users. I wonder why no one tried this yet in America where everyone sue everyone for petty things..... there is no one to take up this issue? . if tim got any love for the guys who shell out money for the devices his company makes, he should be implimenting this as priority before someone wake up from sleep and sue him.
