Motorola H700 automatically disconnects.

I am having a lot of trouble with my Motorola H700 headset. I can pair easily, and the headset even shows up in my System Preferences, but I get the "Bluetooth Audio Failed" or "Disconnected" errors when I try to use them as Input or Output.
I noticed in Bluetooth Preferences that in the Devices tab, the "Connected:" spot goes back and forth between Yes and No, it seems for no particular reason as the headset sits 6 inches from the machine. Eventually, it just stays disconnected.
Any help is much appreciated.

Alexander, good feedback. (Oh, BTW my Nokia HS-26W did include a step down adapter in the box, just FWIW) I noticed this sequence of events this morning(generally speaking): I powered up my PBook with the (Nokia) headset(HS) left powered off. Then, after charging the HS I powered it on. Then, all the "problems" from the past re-occurred, and of course I was very perplexed. Then, I powered the HS on and powered the Mac off/on via restart. Viola, everything worked as well as yesterday (see my previous post). I am beginning to wonder if the "problem" in some/many cases may be related to this kind of 'sequence of events', especially considering the fact that you have been successful with all of those different HS. Perhaps something as simple as a "general usage guidelines" would be useful. Dunno. Anyway, I am probably gonna be more scarce 'round these parts, although I will check-in from time to time, mostly because I seem to be off and running with my HS needs satisfied. Thanks to everyone who has helped in general.

  • ITunes automatically disconnects after updating

    Hi I just got a 60GB video iPod and before I had it set to not update any videos and so it would update all my songs and then just stay connected. It would say "iPod update is complete" or whatever the message is, and on the desktop I could still see the iPod icon.
    However, recently I decided to update my videos and clicked on "Automatically update all videos" and so it updated my videos and they're successfully on my iPod, but the minute it updates it automatically disconnects from my computer, the icon disappears from the desktop, and you can use the iPod (scroll, listen to songs, etc.) even though it's still plugged into my computer. Also, iTunes doesn't seem to register that it's been disconnected because it still acts like it's there with the whole "Your iPod" and the greyed song titles and all, and I have to "eject the iPod" for iTunes to go back to normal as though it's not connected.
    Now, my question is: is this normal? Should iTunes be automatically disconnecting but still not registering this? Could this be because I tried to plug my iPod nano in before I tried to update my iPod video and now my computer is confused about things? Sorry if this is a really stupid question; I just got the MacBook Pro and this is my first ever Apple computer so I'm a little lost, but thanks to anyone who replies to this!! I truly appreciate your efforts

    Grey text when you look at the content and lock symbol at the bottom of the screen simply shows that your iPod is set to "automatically update songs and playlists". . If you want to access your iPod directly, play it through your iTunes, connect it to a second computer etc. you just need to change the update method to "Manually manage songs and Playlists" in the iPod preferences. For more detail see this tutorial: Managing Your Songs Manually
    The automatic disconnect is also normal in this mode. You can either enable your iPod for disc use or if you change to manually updating this will be enabled by default. In either of these cases it will remain mounted and has to be manually ejected before the "Do Not Disconnect" message will go away.Safely disconnect iPod

  • Trouble Using Motorola H700

    I have a Motorola H700 that was paring and working just fine with my 8GB iPhone. With the release of 1.1.3 I, like many others, had problems with Bluetooth. During a call, I could hear the recipient in my headset just fine, but there was nothing coming through on their end. I thought the release of 1.1.4 would fix this, but to no avail. I have paired the headset with a friend's phone (not iPhone) and it works fine, so I know the microphone is functioning. I have googled solutions and have tried some popular ones:
    1. Resetting network settings.
    2. Airplane mode toggle.
    3. Unpairing and repairing
    4. Restoring my iPhone
    NONE of these solutions have worked for me. Does anyone have any other suggestions???
    Thanks

    You're going to have to be more descriptive as to what the issue could be. For example, were there any specific error messages that was returned when you tried to duplicate the Mac OS X disc on to, what I presume, is a separate disc or USB pen drive?

  • [Work around] iPod Classic automatically disconnects when open itunes (PC Windows Vista)

    I have a:
    iPod Classic 120GB
    HP Pavilion Laptop
    iTunes 10 (latest)
    Windows Vista OS (32-bit)
    THE PROBLEM
    I connect my iPod to my laptop with a working usb cable. The computer recognises the iPod as is shows up as a drive in "My Computer". But as soon as I open iTunes program, iTunes recognises the iPod for a few seconds, then automatically disconnects from the program and the computer.
    Only after updating my iTunes to 10 have I encountered this problem.
    I have tried all the suggestions on the apple forums and others to no avail.
    THE WORK-AROUND
    Calling this a work around simply because it is definately not a solution. and developers should really get off their backsides and fix this bug.concerning the problem of iPods (particular the older models) automatically disconnecting.
    When connecting the iPod to the computer (NOT IN ITUNES), open the iPod drive through "My Computer", keep that window open as a folder, then proceed to run iTunes. This should allow you to use iPod through iTunes as normal.
    NOTE: this is not a superfix and may not work for everyone, but it won't hurt to try. for more drastic but permanant solution, switching to 3rd party software might be for you. I have tried Songbird and had no problems link: http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/29716/heres-five-alternatives-to-itunes-10-for-ea sily-managing-your-ipod/
    Hope this helps. Peace

    I'll give this a shot, thank you for posting. I don't want to say I'm glad it's a bug but it's better then two brand new ipods in 10 days being crap.

  • IPod automatically disconnects itself within 5-10 seconds.

    Hi All,
    I've been having some problems connecting my 5th Gen iPod to my new MackBook Pro. The iPod was synced to my old MacBook (I think it was the first black MacBook model) and worked perfectly fine. When I tried connecting it to my Pro for the first time everything went swell until about 500 songs in when the iPod suddenly disconnected (with the error message asking me to eject before disconnecting). I could no longer see it in iTunes and it returned to the state where it's not plugged in and not charging. I reconnected it and tried again and it happened a lot sooner. After trying multiple times, the time it takes for the iPod to automatically disconnect itself is about 5 to 10 seconds.
    I've tried multiple cords and have connected the iPod to multiple computers, which leads me to believe that it's a problem with the iPod and not the computer or the cord. I've restarted the computers, restarted the iPod, attempted to restore the iPod (but it doesn't last long enough in the dock for it to work) and played around with the disk mode setting in iTunes. The only thing I have running when I attempt to connect is iTunes. Also, I was able to synced my iPhone to iTunes with no problem at all.
    Any suggestions? Thanks!

    You get 90 days of free phone support after that there is a charge.
    From your description your iPod may have developed a hardware problem and need to be fixed. If you bought it it August it is still under warranty so repair would be covered.
    You could try some troubleshooting suggestions.
    Go to Settings > General > Reset > Reset network settings to see if that helps.
    Turn your iPod off and restart it (press on/off button for 5 seconds or so until power off indicator appears).
    Reset your iPod (press on/off button and home button simultaneously for 10 seconds or so until the Apple logo appears).
    If none of this helps you can try doing a restore on your iPod (make sure you have a backup). See iTunes to do this.
    Good luck.

  • Automatically Disconnect your iPod?

    When I first got my Nano, I swear that it disconnected automatically after updating, but still continued to charge. It no longer does that. I now have to eject it. When my niece plugs her Nano in, it disconnectes automatically. What setting do I need to change to get it to automatically disconnect again?
    I tried searching, but I'm not sure on the correct wording, so it came up with a lot of unrelated threads.
    Thanks for your help and sorry if this is a re-post!

    fist, when the ipod is connected, it is always
    charging, the ipod just dosent display the charge
    when it is being updated. what has happend mos likely
    is that in the ipod options enable disk use is
    checked. if it is uncheck it.
    if not, its a windows problem. you see windows has
    issues being bossed around by itunes and likes to
    view the ipod. it is safe to turn off the computer,
    and while its off disconnect the ipod and try again
    when the computer is back on. if itunes syas at the
    top ipod update is complete ok to disconnect, you may
    remove it and plug it back in, regardless of what the
    ipod is saying on the screen.

    That did it. Thanks!

  • IPOD NANO Automatically Disconnects

    I have 3 IPOD's a 40gb 4th gen, a MINI and a NANO. Songs from ITUNES transfer to the older IPOD's Fine but when I try to transfer to the NANO it automatically disconnects.
    I am using:
    ITUNES 7.0.2.16
    IPOD ver 1.1.1
    I have Tried Reset and Restore on the NANO and then I can transfer some Songs but then the problem rreturns. I am only trying to download about 18 songs and have even tried to do 1 at a time. Any Suggestions?
    IPOD NANO (2nd gen) 8gb   Windows XP Pro   2gbRam

    Ok, so I reset it while connecting to the PC. There's such a hassle of using the "Safely Remove Hardware" to 'stop' the iPod. I downloaded the latest iPod updater and reformatted the nano. Apparently there was an update sometime early last month. So I had to reformat, but it still automatically disconnected somewhere around song # 300, and this iPod had nothing else on it. I uploaded songs 50-100 at a time, and it seems to be ok since. Whew!
    It seems there's a lot of trial and error on having to restart the computer, reformat the iPod, etc. I also find it helpful to go into SAFE MODE on your Windows XP PC and go into Windows/Temp and delete all these little files that pile up from somewhere. I've never been able to delete them as a logged-in user, so SAFE MODE is the only way to do it.

  • IPhone and Bluetooth Motorola H700

    The Motorola H700 can be paired with the iPhone.
    See step by step instruction posted at:
    http://web.mac.com/lpickering

    I use Motorola H700 with iPhone. Used to use it with Samsung for 1 year. Got the iPhone and it paired right up. Very happy. Heard the "Jawbone" was better. Went and bought one at Best Buy, ($139) had problems pairing it but after 2 days got it to work. It sucked. Noise canceling didn't work and the plastic over the ear felt like someone was squeezing my ear with pliers.
    Stick with the 700. I go to bed at night sometimes and reach up to my ear and the 700's there. I'd been wearing it all day and didn't even know it was there.

  • Bluetooth Motorola H700 earpiece no audio

    This is my first Itouch and trying to use Bluetooth.
    My BT pairs with Itouch 4G.
    I can give voice commands to operate music player, but sound comes from external speaker of Itouch. How do I get the sound to BT device?

    I looked at the Motorola site and can't find if the H700 supports the A2DP profile. Thee two site only mention the hand free and headset profiles. A lot of headsets use the HFP (hands free profile) that the iPod does not support.

  • 80 Gig - Automatically disconnects after update

    I have tried to search for this query but cannot find one like it, hence a new post but soory it is a duplicate.
    I am running iTunes 7.02.16 and my iPod is an 80 gig with 1.2.1 firmware. it is set to sync automatically upon connection with itunes.
    Q - for some reason my iPod has started to automatically disconnect when it has completed it's update. I have to reconnect to alter settings or change preferences on the iPod.
    No other obvious problems. and I have tried the usual resets except the iPod restore.
    Help and advice much appreciated. Thanks.

    It will stay connected after sync if you enable disk use in the ipod settings on itunes. This means you'll have to manually eject it when you want to disconnect it.

  • Bluetooth won't pair (Motorola h700  cell phone headset )

    I have been trying to pair the Motorola H700 headset I use with my cell phone with my new iPod touch.
    It will not pair. Is the headset I use with my cell phone different, or should it be able to pair for use with apps like Skype on my iPod Touch????

    Could you please clarify? I understand your point that bluetooth headsets that are only designed for phone calls won't work with the touch, but don't most bluetooth headsets that play music also handle phone calls. For instance, the samsung bluetooth headset that I use with my Windows mobile Omnia will play music and phone calls and skype and voip calls. And it is my understanding that the touch supports skype and voip.

  • IPod automatically disconnecting

    Hi, I am trying to update my iPod to my Macbook but every time I plug it in it automatically disconnects.  Any one know this happens?

    Try this:
    Connect your iPod and in iTunes go to Preferences>iPod. Under the Music tab if you have your iPod set to automatically sync with iTunes see if you also have a tick in the box marked “enable disk use". Remove this tick and your iPod should automatically disconnect after it’s finished updating.

  • Ipod automatically disconnects

    after my ipod updates, it automatically disconnects and disappears from my desktop. is there anyway to change it? i use a scrobbling program that needs to see the ipod to work, and the ipod automatically disconnects everytime it updates, OR everytime i plug the ipod in, itunes opens and automatically updates.
    i know i could do manual updates but i don't really want to risk messing anything up.
    any ideas?
    thanks
    dan

    Enable it for disk use and it will stay mounted until you manually eject it. Connect the iPod and go to iTunes>Preferences>iPod>Music tab, you'll find the radio button for disk use in there.

  • IPod Class Automatically Disconnecting While Synching

    Ok I managed to solve my previous problem and now when while I'm synching my music onto the iPod,it automatically disconnects causing the whole sync to completely stop.Any idea why ?

    Hmm. Well, since the problem happens on both computers, the problem more than likely lies with the iPod itself. The iPod's software may have become corrupt in some way and may need to be restore via iTunes. Keep in mind that restoring will erase all the music and files from your iPod so make sure they are backed up on at least one of your computers. However, that is not a guaranteed fix and I don't think you really feel like reloading all 105 GB of music on it.
    Maybe try manually putting the iPod into Disk Mode while connected and see if that helps the iPod stay connected and mounted properly.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1363
    Other than that, I don't know of any other way to handle this situation and am out of ideas or potential solutions. Maybe try completely uninstalling iTunes and then re-installing. (There is a link right that the beginning of the document if you have Vista)
