IPhone wan't connect with Macbook pro in bluetooth

I Can't conect my iPhone to my Macbook Pro with bluetooth

Have you tried the following:
Pairing another device with your mac and/or iphone?
Maybe the app requires sharing to be turned on for mac?
I would check the app's requirements.. make sure it supports bluetooth versions that you're running.

    You could try updating your apple TV and then restarting it. Bit of a guess.

  • Can't pair iPhone 5s with Macbook Pro via Bluetooth

    I have an iPhone 5s and Macbook Pro with retina display (running on iOS 8.0.2 and Yosemite respectively). For some reason, my iPhone can never see my MBPr but the MBPr can see the iPhone. Pressing the "Pair" button on in the Bluetooth setting panel in OS X will trigger the pairing confirmation to show up on my iPhone. After confirming the pair request, the devices remain connected for no more than 2 seconds. Then they just disconnect. (The status is "Not connected" underneath my iPhone on the Devices list in OS X)
    This has been bugging me for a while, even before I upgraded to iOS 8 and Yosemite. I was hoping the upgrade will solve the issue but apparently not. My iPad  on the other hand has no problem in connecting and remaining connected to my MBPr. That's just baffling.
    Just some context: the reason why I wanted to connect my MBPr and my iPhone via Bluetooth is because I want to use my my iPhone as the hotspot. Yes, I can use the USB cable, but can't blame me for trying the wireless route (And no, connecting via wifi doesn't  work)
    Any help is appreciated!

  • Iphone 4 not connecting with macbook air using USB

  • Slow Connection with MacBook Pro

    Whenever I try to connect my MacBook Pro (Early 2011) to the Apple TV (3rd generation) for Aiplay Mirroring, it takes a long time to connect, and when it connects, the screen is almost frozen and the same happens when I try home sharing, everyting I play starts lagging, Airplaying music works for a bit then starts lagging every two seconds. I've tried AirPlay with my iPhone 4s and it works perfectly with music video and mirroring. I'm using the latest OS on all devices.

    Sounds like it is not getting a great WiFi conneciton.  Streaming video is not tolorant of anyting other than a perfect connection.   You need a newer WiFi routner to support streaming video.  If you have one that supports the N standard then I would try resetting your Wifi router.

    i hear no sound in FaceTime on iPhone while in conversation with macbook pro

    This sounds like something similar to https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3388112?start=105&tstart=0.
    Looks like the problem was on the Macbook Pro. Try ask the person using Macbook Pro turning down the speak volume (System Preferences->Sound->Output->Output Volume)  or the microphone gain (System Preferences->Sound->Input->Input Volume).

  • Bluetooth iPhone 6 Plus issues with MacBook Pro

    Most recently, started having issues with my iPhone 6 plus maintaining connection to my MacBook Pro 15in.   Noticed this strictly through using iMessage, as I use it to text a lot.
    Steps taken so far:
    Verified other bluetooth devices (Keyboards, Mice) working fine. 
    Rebooted both iPhone and MBP.
    "Reset" the bluetooth connection by removing it both on the MBP and iPhone, then re-paried the devices.
    The pairing function will work then suddenly it will display "not connected".   I additionally have verified the iPhone can connect to other bluetooth devices fine.  (Car, Keyboard).  So I definitely can say it is isolated to iPhone--MacBookPro.
    The fact there was no major updates on any side has me concerned, just suddenly "stopped working". 
    Any help is appreciated, thanks!

    You know what, you are right.   Not sure why I thought that.  Now the question is why my SMS is not working with iMessage.   Back to the drawing board!

  • IPhone 4 not synching with MacBook Pro contacts or calendar

    Hi there,
    My issue is that my iPhone 4 is not synching with my MacBook Pro which is running Snow Leopard (I haven't upgraded to Mountain Lion yet as judging by the reviews there's a split in how successful it is).
    The latest information is on my iPhone, both contacts and calendar, however under iTunes (the latest update v11) it does not give me the option box to 'check' and sync these menu's. Any ideas anyone - this is issue is not only baffling but annoying as ****.
    Any ideas of feedback would be greatl

    Doh! Got it working....
    Helps to use the "search" function better. I read another thread where someone was having the same problem and a suggestion was to ensure that he was using the same cable that came with his iPhone...sure enough! That was my problem. My wife has an iPod and somehow we mixed up our wires.
    I swapped cables with her and boom! The synch function is back at work.

  • IPhone won't connect to Macbook Pro Hotspot!

    When I make my Macbook Pro into a hotspot my iPhone won't connect to the network. It'll detect, but won't connect. Running OS X 10.8.2 and  iOS 6.1 on an iPhone 5. Help!

    Post in the iPhone forum in as much as your settings need adjustment.

  • Iphone connecting to MacBook Pro via bluetooth

    I have paired my iPhone to my MacBook Pro and selected bluetooth sharing. Although paired, for some reason, they will not connect. Any Ideas

    Apple sells a bluetooth app to connect your iphone to use it as a clicker for Keynote.
    No they don't.
    Maybe you should actually read the product description? You know, where it clearly tells you Keynote Remote works over Wi-Fi.
    If apple makes me pay for the ** thing, I think it should work.
    They didn't make you pay for it. You chose to. And it does work perfectly. Unfortunately, you didn't bother to read the description of it before buying it, did you?

  • IPhone won't sync with MacBook Pro

    My iPhone 4s won't sync with my MacBook Pro.
    Running Mountain Lion 10.8.5.
    iPhone 7.1
    iTunes 11.1.5
    Last time I synced was March 17.  Can't remember if there's been updates on the phone.  None on the laptop.
    I'm so annoyed.
    I've done the usual shutdown/on again stuff.  Just can't get it to work.
    Any help would be appreciated. 

    Nevermind.  After reading through a bunch of fixes, one suggested resetting my modem, duh!!
    I certainly know to do that when the laptop is acting up, had no idea that would fix the iPhone too!!
    Hope this helps someone else.

  • Problem while using Internet USB Connection with Macbook Pro

    Hi...
    My name is udayan and i am from India, I am using MACBOOK PRO from last 1 year. For most of this period i have used wi-fi connection for my laptop. But recently i have purchased a Relience Net connect Device for Internet facility. As soon as i started using this device, i have started facing an unusual problem. Whenever i start using it, after 5-10 mins. a fade screen appears and asks me to RESTART the laptop. This keeps on happening after every 10-15 mins which is pretty annoying. I have tried to use the same Internet device on normal laptops and it works just fine with that machine.
    Can you please help me to understand this phenomena? Is it a MAC limitation or something else?
    Hope to hear it from you soon.....
    Cheers!!!

    I tried to connect with Ethernet the MACBOOK Pro to the modem but the situation hasn't changed
    Are you saying you cannot connect to the internet wirelessly and through the ethernet?  If so, there is something else going on.

  • Wireless Mighty Mouse won't connect with MacBook Pro in Bootcamp

    I recently swapped my Bootcamp-partitioned hard drive from an older Core Duo MacBook to a late-2007 Core 2 Duo MacBook Pro.  I had no problem using the wireless mouse with the MacBook.  I'd click on the Windows desktop once it booted up and it worked flawlessly.
    But on the newer MacBook Pro it won't stay connected.  I have to pair it with the Windows Bluetooth control panel each time I log in.
    I'm not sure if this is connected to the issue or not, but I'm not able to use the trackpad and buttons on the MacBook Pro keyboard either.
    I've seached the discussions without any success.  Advice anyone?
    Thanks in advance.
    Patrick

    Well, by some stroke of dumb luck it finally connected. I slid the on/off switch open until the green light started to blink, when the mouse connected I opened it all the way and decided to work.

  • DLink router wont connect with MacBook Pro

    Hello Everyone... I need a little bit of help on this one!!
    My mom just bought a brand new MacBook Pro (yay, she finally switched!) , but for some reason I can not get her MBP to connect to their wireless. The Airport card will no even find the network to connect to. There is not a password set and asking my parents they are not sure if there was a cd or anything to set it up. They have a DLink router that is several years old (DI-624 is the model #) and I have been scratching my brain to figure this out and can not get it!! There are several posts that give suggestions, but none seem relevant to my problem.
    Any help would be awesome and thank you sooo much for your help!!

    assuming your mum's previous computer was/still is able to connect to the DLink, it probably means that SSID Broadcast in the wifi settings (of the DLInk) has been turned off. which means nothing can 'see' the DLink that hasn't connected to it previously.
    you'll need to temporarily plug the MBP into the DLink via a Cat5 Ethernet cable, log into the DLink's config website (probably http://192.168.0.1 or http://192.168.1.1), and check the wifi settings. no install CD required
    u said no 'password' had been set. do you mean no wifi encryption had been configured? you'd be well advised to if there's anyone living within 100m of your Mum . while you're at it, see what encryption settings have been set up there / are available. if it's WEP (or no encryption at all as you suggest?), you'd be well advised to change it to WPA. WEP is now hopelessly broken (easily crackable within a minute with the right tools). just be aware that any change here will affect any other wireless device that's also using the DLink.
    if WPA is not offered, goto the DLink website and check for new firmware...
