Mac Air will not pair with iPhone 5

I can not get my iPhone to connect to my MacAir--even though I go through the process and see the code number on both devices. After I click on connect an error message comes up that the MacAir in "not supported." Help

The iPhone DOES support Bluetooth profiles beyond audio.
See: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3647
However, most profiles won't work with a Mac.

IPhone 5 will not pair with Uconncect since 8.1.1 update

iPhone 5 will not pair with Uconnect since 8.1.1 update. How can I fix this?

Apple would "not" replace my Iphone 5 till went to dealer and had my bluetooth on u connect system updated. Advisor acted like I just come from the planet Mars when I told him what I needed. So a tech advisor went with to my vehicle and connect his 4S then went and about a minute flat "paired" my iphone 5! I seen him go through a step that even the manufacter's manual did not even mention to "pair" an iphone using bluetooth! I then asked what he had done and so he showed me to successfully start the "pairing" process the four digit code he used for the u connect and on the iphone screen came up displaying u connect and just to the right it says "not" paired. I had been there around twenty times myself! He then pressed the "not paired" display and when he did the keypad popped up and the advisor put in the "same" four didgit code that he originally had used to start the pairing in uconnect and then press the "complete or done" button on the iphone keypad after doing this the u connect displays "pairing process has begun" and less than a minute it did! All the phones including my 4GS I "never" had to do that and I had "never" had a pairing problem before so to me it must the new IOS 6 system!

IPhone 4 Bluetooth will not pair with Jawbone Icon, Jawbone 2

Just got my iPhone today and am more or less thrilled to have it. The only problem (other than the antenna issue, which the bumper fixes beautifully) is that Bluetooth will not pair with any of my Bluetooth devices. When I turn on Bluetooth on the phone and turn on the headset, iPhone says it's "searching.." and "now discoverable" but it never discovers anything, let alone pair up. The Bluetooth on my MacBook recognized the iPhone and I was able to pair them, but no luck on the Jawbones. Sounds like a JB problem, but I'm wondering if anyone has had this problem and if there's a fix via the iPhone.

On the icon, turn it off and hold button down while sliding the power switch on. This should put it in pairing mode. Then go into your i4's bluetooth menu and give it another go. Also, Jawbone has recently updated the firmware for the Icon so you need to load it as well. I have the icon and a Jabra cruiser and both work/paired fine. You may want to try rebooting phone and retrying as well.

My iPhone will not pair with Yada Bluetooth speakerphone

My iPhone 5 (iOS 8.1.1) will not pair with a Yada Bluetooth car speakerphone. (Android phone has no problem.) Is there a fix?
Thanks

Hello grassyknap,
For most issues with pairing your iPhone with a Bluetooth device like your car, then take a look at the article below to sort you out. Make sure to reset network settings to clear it out from your frequent pairings to reestablish the connection.

IPhone 4s will not pair with car bluetooth

My new iphone 4s will not pair with the bluetooth in my 07 Volvo XC70. The blue tooth is after market, looks similar to internet photos of Motorolla T605. Blue tooth says to put in scan mode and then enter code when prompted. Pairing fails and then the screen for the code shows up on the phone.
I had a iPhone 3s paired with this Bluetooth, and once when I did a reset of that phone had this issue, put through many attempts it eventually paired. Despite many attempts, I cannot get the 4S running IOS 5 to pair.
The phone does pair with a motorolla bluetooth ear piece.

I've been having this issue since I got an iPhone 4S last week. (Upgraded from iPhone 4 on iOS 5.0.1)
I would think that this is a software issue but I went ahead and visited an AT&T store to see about a replacement phone. I was directed to go to an Apple store which I then did. I explained this bluetooth issue I was having as well as the other issue with no audio on outbound calls (described in a different thread) and they gave me a new phone.
Well, I've tested it several times now with the nav/handsfree systems in two different cars as well as with my headset. All is good so far! No drop of bluetooth connection, can switch at will between audio sources and no lack of audio on outbound calls any more. (And these problems were happening frequently before, even after a complete restore.)

My bluetooth keyboard (Macnus 3.0) is recognised by my iMac but will not pair? I have paired it with my iPad using code 8310 but it still will not pair with my iMac. Can someone help please?

My bluetooth keyboard (Macnus brand - bought recently in Thailand)(similar to Mac small keyboard) will pair with my iPad using code 8310,and is recognized by my iMac but will not pair?
There are very scant instructions with the keyboard and no mention of any code (the code was prompted by my iPad).
I have followed the instructions but it still will not pair with my iMac!
Can anyone help please?
My iMac is 20 inch Mid 2007 OSX10.9.1 4GB RAM

Hi All, thank you for you suggestions. I have been unable to find any website for the maker, but have looked at several Thai/cambodian sites incl <http://www.buycoms.com/Article/8435/index.asp> which mentions the keyboard being suitable for tablet or windows. No mention of iMac! although the box is branded to indicate Mac compatable.
I'm thinking that maybe it just will not pair with an iMac.
Ill keep looking for the maker website, which might come on later in the future? maybe?
thanks again.

Macbook pro will not pair with Vizio sound bar.

Macbook will not pair with Vizio sound bar. It has paired and worked fine in the past. in the menu bar at the top of the screen it says it is connected but it is not. when I open the bluetooth preferences and try to pair it says pairing failed. any help would be great. thanks.

Me too. sigh
All was well until this afternoon, when I swapped out the batteries on my trusty old Microsoft IntelliMouse Explorer for Bluetooth, which has worked flawlessly for me for a few years now. After I put new batteries in, my MBP wouldn't recognize it. I went through the Bluetooth Setup Assistant, and it "saw" the mouse and properly listed it as "Microsoft Mouse". I hit "continue", of course, and the Assistant said "Pairing with your Bluetooth mouse". It got as far as "Connection established" (and I saw the mouse appear in the Bluetooth preference pane", but then I got the dreaded red words: "The pairing attempt was unsuccessful. Make sure your mouse is in range of this computer, turned on and "discoverable." Etc., etc. I made sure of all of those things and tried again, many times, with the same failure every time. I tried different batteries, rebooted the Mac, and so on. No luck.
Figuring my mouse was dead, I went out and bought a Kensington Slimblade Bluetooth Presenter Mouse, brand new, never been paired with anything. Same problem!
Also, I can no longer get my Palm Treo 650 to sync via Bluetooth. It used to be a little flaky (often complained that the port was in use by another application), but rebooting the Treo always solved that. Now, it doesn't.
One trusty old mouse suddenly stops pairing, one brand-new one refuses to pair, smartphone won't sync any more. I haven't installed any system updates or anything else since the Microsoft mouse worked. The only weird thing going on is that I'm having massive network connectivity issues with my broadband connection (probably a flaky cable modem), and a couple of days ago I bought a new Airport Extreme a/b/g/n wireless router, which is at the other end of the house from my computer and now-defunct mice.
Very bizarre. Can the Bluetooth chip or antenna in a MacBook Pro burn out or otherwise fail?
Puzzled and frustrated,

What version of the Mac OS are you running (from "About this Mac" under your Apple menu)?

525G2 will not pair with one of my Bluetooth headsets

My Voyager Pro+ died last week and now my 525G2 will not pair with a Voyager Pro UC that I had laying around. It can see it, but when I enter the PIN code it says that it will not pair. The same headset will pair with my cell phone, so i know it's not the headset that is the problem.

What is an "expense bluetooth". Does it have a brand name and model number? is it compatible with the iPhone? Have you put it in pairing mode and paired it with the iPhone? Has it ever been paired with another device?

MacBook Air will not sync with icloud

my macbook air will not sync with my icloud account.
I have tried reseting the i cloud preferences and have trashed the calender caches
still does not sync.

If you haven't already done so, go to System Preferences>iCloud, click Sign Out, choose Delete at all of the prompts, restart your Mac and go back and sign back in. This deletes the iCloud account and iCloud data (if any) from your Mac but not from iCloud. Your iCloud data will reappear on your Mac when you sign back in.

Bluetooth will not pair with Moto Droid4

My Droid4 has will not pair with either my "Verzion" Jabra VBT-4050 nor my Jawbone Icon. Both these earpieces paired with this phone before, but will not now.
Makes no sense to me.
Thanks...Andy

westa510b,
That can certainly be confusing since it previously paired just fine with your device. We will be happy to take a closer look at this matter with you. Have you attempted to reboot the device? Tried deleting the bluetooth connection from the device, then re-establishing connection? Any changes recently to the devices software or additions of an application when you first noticed this issue began?
