IPhone pairing to MacBook via Bluetooth

Hi Everyone,
I have been trying to pair my iPhone with my new MacBook with no success. It will detect my iPhone, I'll enter the given pin on iPhone, but it doesn't connect. Is it possible if done right, I'll be able to receive calls on my MacBook and talk through the built-in mic?

No, the iphone does not currently support tethering the iphone to a mac by bluetooth (or by cable). The iphone bluetooth only supports handsfree devices for phone calls.

  • My iPhone 5 does not connect to my Macbook via Bluetooth (this is so frustrating!!)

    Ok so i bought my iPhone 5 a couple days ago. So i installed and applications from app store ( on my mac ) which enables me to control my iphone through my mac (via bluetooth). It's very cool when my iphone is docked so i don't need to reach to it every single time. AND. guess what. my iphone refuses to connect to macbook and vice versa.
    This is sooo frustrating i'm gonna die.
    When i go to the general settings and bluetooth menu, it doesn't even find my macbook. I need to go to the bluetooth menu on mac, set up bluetooth device and then select my iphone. Then, it does pair. BUT it doesn't connect it says:
    Connection Unsuccessful
    "Macbook Pro" is not supported.
    And gives me only on option: "Forget Device"
    Any help?

    you mentioned you purchased from the mac app store, the only thing I could find is Type2Phone, and that app has some ts'ing steps in its description that match almost exactly what you described /

    how can i use my iPhone 4 and connect via bluetooth with my macpro

    The only way that you can connect your iPhone to the mac is to use it for a "Wi-fi hotspot" meaning that you can use the celluar connectivity of your phone to connect your computer to the interent.
    Do you mean a MacBook Pro of the desktop MacPro?

  • Connecting BB pearl to macbook via bluetooth?

    ive been trying to get my blackberry pearl to sync to my macbook via bluetooth but i havent been able to. does anyone know how to resolve this issue? PocketMac also seems to freeze a lot also whenever i try to open the application.

    With PocketMac it will charge/connect with USB, without PocketMac installed it will say there isn't enough power. As for syncing with Bluetooth I don't think that's possible with the BB Pearl, to my knowledge anyways. If anyone finds a way to let me know!

  • Able to connect ipad 2 to iphone 4s personal hotspot via bluetooth or wifi, but no internet access when connected via wifi.

    I am able to connect my ipad 2 to an iphone 4s personal hotspot via bluetooth or wifi.  The problem is that I only have internet access with a bluetooth connection. Both are running ios 6.1.2 and I have tried to reset both to factory settings. Any suggestions would be reatly appreciated. 

    Please don't shout!   Using all uppercase means shouting on the internet.  If your keyboard is stuck please say so, otherwise people will think you are being obnoxious.
    Now the first question is, when you are saying connecting to personal hotspot, have you always been using the iPhone to connect to the internet?   Are you someplace where the only place to connect is available via tethering to the iPhone's celluar network?  Or do you have other options?

  • Is there anyway to connect iphone to other devices via bluetooth.like nokia and other phones

    Is there anyway to connect iphone to other devices via bluetooth.like nokia and other phones

    No
    Bluetooth is supported for stereo headsets/speakers, handsfree telephone devices/headsets, some keyboards, some peer-to-peer apps from the app store, and tethering where provided by the carrier.
    Other than this, it will not connect to any computer/phone/device.

  • 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.

    Not via Bluetooth. You can connect over Wi-Fi, but this needs to be configured when the device is connected with a cable.

  • STILL not able to pair iPhone and Mac Pro via bluetooth. Really, Apple?

    Honestly, I thought Mavericks would usher in a new era and that we'd finally be able to pair our APPLE iphones to our APPLE desktops via bluetooth. I know I can connect via USB but I don't happen to have the cord on me and it just doesn't make any sense that bluetooth is not an option in this day and age.
    Apple, with all of the amazing things you are doing, why on earth can I still not connect two of your most widely used devices? Why do your computers "talk" to other-brand bluetooth devices, but not your own iphone?
    I have an iphone 4s running iOS 7 and a Mac Pro running Mavericks 10.9.3. All suggestions welcome...anything I'm missing here?

    Thanks Allan...just wanted to be sure there was nothing new that I was missing. And hoping the Geniuses see comments like these and pay attention to them. It seems so nonsensical and so "un-Apple" to still not support such a basic way of connecting their devices.

  • HT1222 Ever since I downloaded 6.1.3 to my Iphone 5, I cannot pair my phone via bluetooth with my Camry.  I have tried everything.  What's up???? Help!

    So you cleared all pairings from your head unit and retstarted the car, you Reset the network settings on the car, then you tried to pair them? Does either one see the other after you do this?
    Haven't seen many Camry BT complaints, you might check on their forum.
    If you are convince it is your update then go here: http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphone.html and provide as much detail as possible.

  • Can I sync my iPhone with my MBP via BlueTooth?

    Hey All..
    I'd love to sync my iPhone with my MacBook Pro via bluetooth but when I use the Bluetooth set-up assistant to add a device it doesn't even find my iPhone. I wondered if maybe it wasn't possible to link the two. Also...when I was in bluetooth and "browse device" my bluetooth kept quitting. Not sure if a)Bluetooth cant connect the phone yet b)my bluetooth on my MBP isn't functioning.
    If anyone who can help with suggestions it would be great..
    ~RICKY

    Transferring music, video and photos is slow to me with USB 2.0 instead of using Firewire, so it would be like watching paint try trying to transfer such data via Bluetooth file transfer.
    Not supported with the iPhone regardless.
