My iPad used to automatically connect to Bluetooth audio device, but now it has inexplicably stopped doing so.
I have an iPad 2 and a Logitech Wireless Boombox. It used to be that on powering on the Boombox, the iPad would connect and make it the default audio device. Now, I have to go in to settings and connect explicitly. It's been like this for the past few days or so and I can't see what could have caused the change.
It's not a major problem, but I'd like the old behaviour back and I find it disconcerting when unexplained things happen.
Well, in case some future googler finds this thread, for some mysterious reason it is behaving as it did originally again. Still none the wiser as to why.

Why does my computer keep trying to connect to a bluetooth audio device that doesn't exist?
For some reason, whenever I have my bluetooth on to use my Magic Mouse, every six minutes or so I get an error saying that my bluetooth is having issues connecting to a bluetooth audio device. I do have a Bluetooth Audio device, but it stays at home and is only on when I am watching movies. This happens all the time, even when I am at work, and even when I tell it to stop using the device.
My kernel.log reads the following:
kernel[0]: IOAudioStream[0xffffff8015766a00]::clipIfNecessary() - Error: attempting to clip to a position more than one buffer ahead of last clip position (1,450)->(2,654).
kernel[0]: IOAudioStream[0xffffff8015766a00]::clipIfNecessary() - adjusting clipped position to (2,450)
Does anyone know what is going on?Make sure the device isn't selected in the Sound preference pane.

I just bought a Iphone 5 -- my Iphone 4 and my ipad used to automatically sinc calendars via the Icloud whenever I entered anything on either device -- I can not get the new phone to do this.I have check the settings on both devices and they seem to be t
There are only two things that you must do to connect a device to calendars:
1) In settings>icloud, you must log in, WITH THE CORRECT ID/PASSWORD, and
2) Turn on calendars on the same page.
You said that the iphone 4 and ipad **used** to automatically sync. Do they no long sync? -
Once pictures are moved from your camera to your iPad (using the camera connection kit), how do you get the photos off of the iPad? They do not show up in my photo stream or my iCloud. I am able to see any photo I took on the iPad using the iPad camera (in iTunes, photo stream, or when I open windows explorer and browse the iPad director), however I cannot see any photos transfered from my camera to the iPad. The camera connection kit must have put my photos in a directory I cannot get to and cannot sync.
The links below have instructions for deleting photos.

I have the new IPad and can't connect via bluetooth to any of my apple devices (IPhone 4s and appleTV) neither from my new IPhone 4s. When I turn the Bluetooth on, both devices keep in searching mode... I don't know what to do now... Please help... I can't pair any device because they can't find whitin themselves.

Correct... See Supported Bluetooth Profiles Here...

Suggest you check the User Guides of your Devices to find the Method of what you are trying to do -
Why do I get this error when trying to use my bluetooth headset as a listening device? There was an error connecting to your audio device. Make sure it is turned on and in range. The audio portion of the program you were using may have to be restarted.
I may have already resolved this issue buy removing the device from my computer and re-pairing it. It is currently working just fine.

Can I use simultaneous lightning connection and bluetooth for sound?
i bought a brooks mini beamer and a bluettot speaker. The speaker can also be connected using a jack. Why do this if there is bluetooth available.
Unfortunately my Iphone will only direct the sound to either the lightning connector (to the beamer) or to bluetooth speaker (and disconnects even the video send to the beamer).
any solutions?
I can plug the jack in the beamer as a plan B though.Whether the device supports bluetooth or not has nothing to do with plugging an audio cable in and sending audio to it.
The iPhone will direct audio where the user instructs it to do so.
Swipe up from the bottom to bring up Control Panel.
Select the output option and direct audio where you desire.
For what silly reason would anyone connect a bluetooth audio transmitter to an iPhone? They have bluetooth built in. -
I can't import vertical photos to my iPad using the camera connection kit. Horizontal photos import fine, but verticals have a red exclamation mark, and do not import. Help!?
I have the same problem and apple needs to fix this - but in the mean time you can manually select the vertical photos then "import - import selected" and you can get your verticals. We need a better fix. THIS IS A BUG!

Is it possible to put films on an ipad using a camera connection kit?
I have just bought a camera connection kit for my ipad 3 and a 16GB sd memory card. i was wondering, is it possible to add mp4 films (such as Transformers) onto the ipad using the camera connection kit from my sd card?
You can. It's just not the easiest thing in the world to do.
MP4 files play just fine. Handbrake is one very good video converter app.
Make and have the file on your computer.
Using the explorer on your computer, You make a folder on the SD card named DCIM
You give the movie a 8 character name TRANSFOR.MP4 for example - has to be exactly 8 characters + extension
You put that file into the DCIM folder using your computer
Eject the card from your computer.
You attach that card via the camera connection kit, to your iPad
The photo app should pop up and you'll see either a poster frame or a black box representing your video
You go through the import process and move that file to your iPad
You finish the process, taking care not to delete the file off the card (the CCK always gives you the option of deleting the photos or movies you just imported)
You open the photos app and tap on the movie, it'll open the video app and play the movie
You finish the movie then have to delete it off your iPad.
You will not see file names, so if you have multiple movies on a card you likely can't tell one from the other.
And you have to have room to import the file, you cannot watch it off the card.
So it works, but isn't exactly seamless and easy, largely cause the preferred method is that you simply purchase and download the same movies from iTunes -
TS1398 iPad will not automatically connect to home WiFi, I have to do it manually each time.
My iPad will not automatically connect to my home wifi and I have to manually connect each time. Is there something I can do to correct this?
Update the firmware in your WiFi router. Look for an update on the manufacturer's support Web page.
If you need more help please give the make, model, and version of your WiFi router. -
Can I go online with my ipad using my iphone connection?
Can I go online with my ipad using my iphone connection?
If your phone carrier supports it (and it may be an extra fee/subscription), then yes you can use the iPhone's personal hotspot function to share its connection with the iPad - the iPad should see the phone as a wifi network.

my iPad is disabled.
i connected it to the iTunes, but the iTunes couldn't access it; because the iPad has a pass code.
i can't enter the pass code in the disabled iPad!
do you have any suggestions?You can unlock it on another computer though the content will be wiped and I think that you need to put it into DFU mode e.g. see post https://discussions.apple.com/message/15385719#15385719 in thread https://discussions.apple.com/message/15385641#15385641 .
From http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1212 :
If you restore on a different computer that was never synced with the device, you will be able to unlock the device for use and remove the passcode, but your data will not be present. -
my iphone 5 is not finding any bluetooth divises. trying to connect to bluetooth hands free but its not searching the divice. what do i do to connect bluetooth headset.
have you tried toggling bluetooth off/on again? if so, try doing a hard reset:
Press and hold both the Home button and the Sleep/wake button simultaneously for about 15 seconds and release when the Apple logo appears.
If that doesn't solve the issue, you could also try backing up the device and restoring the device as new.
In that case, follow the steps in: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137
NB: set up as a NEW device because a software issue will be in the backup. If you still can't detect or pair with any compatible bluetooth device you should offer the device for service.
If you're not able to restore the device, this one might help: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808
Using his article will erase everything on the device, so make sure you have a backup!
Good luck -
When I started my ipad I didn't connect it to my iPhone, and now I want to. How do I do this without losing everything and so that my ipad messages will be sent to my iPhone!?!
Did you read the support article that I posted above? Your iPhone number is associated with your Apple ID, so this should be doable.... Unless your iPhone is associated with a different Apple ID. Then this will not work.
From the support article... You may have to sign out on the phone as well.
