My Iphone 3GS with IOS 5.1 won't pair with my Mercedes ML350 bluetooth

Why doesn't my IPhone 3GS with IOS5.1 pair with my Mercedes ML350 bluetooth?

Sorry, I haven't a clue.  However, in "pairing" phones, I've found that it's not a perfect science and most of the time, if I keep making an attempt, my phone does pair. Today, I finally got around to pairing my new 4S with my Ford Flex.  Same story, the first 3 or 4 attempts crashed. Then for some unknown reason, doing the same procedure, the phone did pair with my Flex.

  • IPad 2 with iOS 7.1 will not pair with ZAGGfolio keyboard

    I have been unable to get my iPad 2 to pair with my ZAGGfolio keyboard.  The keyboard is brand new, and it is the first Bluetooth accessory I have tried to use.  When I press the connect button on the keyboard, the iPad will discover it.  When I select it, I receive a Bluetooth Pairing Request, and I am given a 4-digit code to enter on the keyboard.  When I type the code on the keyboard, nothing happens.  After a short time, I am notified that the Pairing was Unsuccessful, and to check that the keyboard is turned on (it is), in range (it is only a few inches from the iPad), and is ready to pair (it is).  Any help will be greatly appreciated.

    Is the keyboard fully charged? The zagg keyboards are great in that their battery lasts for months, but that also makes it easy for you to forget how long it's been and have the battery run down.
    If the simple tweaks don't fix it, call the company. In my experience, they have wonderful customer service.

  • Bluetooth for iPhone 6 still won't pair with my car after iOS 8.1 update

    So frustrated. I assumed that Apple knew about the problem and that iOS 8.1 would fix what is clearly a very common/widespread issue. Bluetooth is not exactly a new technology... how is it that Apple creates a highly advanced phone, but it can't make a 10-15 years-old technology work?
    I never had any issues with my 5S, but my iPhone 6 has not been able to pair with the Bluetooth in my 2011 Mini Cooper since the day I got it (no phone or BT audio). The 8.1 update has had zero effect on the sequence of events that occur when I try to pair my phone. The car has no problem recognizing the phone, and I can see the car listed under Bluetooth devices, and when I select the car from the list of devices on the phone, the screen to enter the pairing code comes up on my car display. The problem is that the phone never gives me the code to enter into the car display.
    I have tried all the "tricks" people have used to get their BT to work (deleting all phones from car, resetting all phone settings, renaming the phone, etc). Nothing works for me. I really don't want to have to get rid of my 6, but since Apple has never publicly acknowledged the problem, I have no way of knowing if this is ever going to be fixed.
    Really disappointed in you Apple. This is my 3rd iPhone, and you're about to lose a loyal customer if you don't get this sorted out very soon.

    The same problem here.  iPhone 6 with iOS 8.1.2 and bmw 328i 2013 with latest Bluetooth update doesn't pair. The phone will see the car in bluetooh settings but fails to connect.  Based on apple tech support I did the following:
    1. powered thr phone down and back on- no help
    2. Removed all other phones from iDrive- no help
    3. Tried with wi if off - no help
    4. Reset network settings- no help
    5. Restored my phone entirely to factory settings- no help
    The phone can pair to other Bluetooth devices and the car can pair with iphone 4 running iOS 7 no problem. my wife's iphone 6 won't pair with my car either.
    I sure hope apple is still working to correct this!

  • Since I upgrade my iphone 3gs to ios 5.1, I have several problems with network and wi-fi, any solution?

    Since I upgrade my iphone 3gs to ios 5.1, I have several problems with network and wi-fi, any solution? (No jailbreak)
    Most of the time the iphone cannot reach any network and when it can, there is no data transfer, I can only make calls and sms.

    Any ideas?

    my iphone 4 been paired with both a sandberg mini bluetooth keyboard and an imac keyboard key <pun>

    Downgrading the iOS is not supported, and likely has caused the problems you are experiencing.
    You'll need to go elsewhere for support.

  • IPhone 4 (with iOS 5.0) won't go to Landscape while taking photos/videos EVEN IF PORTRAIT ORIENTATION SETTING IS NOT LOCKED! However, watching YouTube/Videos is stuck on LANDSCAPE!

    My iPhone 4 (with iOS 5.0) won't go to Landscape while taking photos/videos EVEN IF PORTRAIT ORIENTATION SETTING IS NOT LOCKED! However, watching YouTube/Videos is stuck on LANDSCAPE!
    I was getting this even on iOS 4.0, but under this OS, I can restart the phone, and in some cases, this problem goes away.
    However, under iOS 5, it simply wouldn't go to LANDSCAPE. Photos is not a worry, since I can just rotate this, but videos is now stuck on Portrait!
    Again, the PORTRAIT ORIENTATION SETTING is NOT LOCKED! But it still wouldn't go to Landscape.
    Is this some sort of a "gyroscope" problem??
    O

    Sorry, but you are mistaken about both observations.
    You CAN DEFINITELY take photos in Landscape and you CAN DEFINITELY watch YouTube videos in PORTRAIT (just tried it now using my sister's working iPhone).
    Also, my CALCULATOR does not go to LANDSCAPE (i.e. from normal to Scientific) automatically.
    So I still think it could be a gyroscope problem...but I'm not 100% sure.

  • Iphone 4 version 5.0 (9A334) won't sync with itunes 10.5 (141)....

    iphone 4 version 5.0 (9A334) won't sync with itunes 10.5 (141)....
    this message keeps popping up when I try to sync my iphone
    "could not be synced because the sync server failed to sync the iphone"
    anyone have this kind of problem?
    googled it, and it's so confusing @.@

    There is definitely a problem with iTunes 10.5 and iOS 5.0 syncing correctly.  I've seen lots of workarounds on the forums here.  Just search for it and see if you can come up with something that works.

  • I just downloaded the newest IOS software and now my iPhone5 won't pair with the Bluetooth in my car (the car system says it's paired when I try to re-pair it but then when n try to make a call it tells me it doesn't recognize the phone.

    I just downloaded the IOS upgrade, 7.0.2, and now my iPhone 5 won't pair with my Bluetooth in my car, despite repeated attempts to re-pair the two and despite the fact it's been paired fine previously.  The car system tells me it's paired but then when I try to make a call I get another message that says there is no paired phone.

    You can't override it no matter what you do. The device has to connect to the server to complete the iOS update. You could try rebooting the iPad and see if that lets you connect to the server after it starts up.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
    If that will not work, you can try connecting to iTunes on your computer and see if the activation will complete. Sometimes when thes activation issues arise, you end up having to restore the device again, but first things first. Reboot and see what happens.

  • Updating iphone 3gs to ios 5, is it safe or will i have issues?

    I've been weary about updating my iphone 3gs from ios 4 (4.3.5 to be exact) to the new ios 5.  I didn't have a problem sitting on an older update untill my phone started acting up and the only thing to do to fix it is to do a restore.  itunes is forcing me to update in order to restore (didn't used to do that untill the new itunes update came out a while back...makes me angry) therefore causing a bit of concern with me.  I do recall how the 3G acted when the ios 4 came out, and my worry is will the iphone 3Gs do something simmilar or worse.  What are the experiances you guys have had with it, both good and bad, I'm curious.  Also is it a good idea to update the 3gs to the ios 5 or not.

  • Updated iphone 3GS to IOS 5.01 and now I cannot restore or activate phone

    Hi,
    Today I updated my stock iphone 3gs to IOS 5.01 from 4.3.5. All went well until I noticed that my apps had not be restored. I attempted to restore my phone in iTunes but now all I get is "There is a problem with your iphone" message appear in iTunes and on my device.
    What can I do to restore the phone to working condition? Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
    Kind regards
    Mark Sheehan

    Better yet, just got off hold with Apple Tier 2 Tech - their Verification Server is down. Give it time for a fix.

  • I updated my iphone 3gs to ios 5.0.1 from ios 4 , now its saying that sim is not activated but the sim is still inside

    PLSS HELP ME OUT !!!!

    Sounds like your phone was hacked to work with any network. Doing the update re-locked it to the original carrier. All you can do now is contact the carrier it is locked to to see if they have an unlocking policy. Note that if it's AT&T they do not offer unlocking. otherwise find an un-activated sim for the original carrier and you can use it as an iPod.

  • I cant active iPhone 3GS to iOS 5

    Hey!
    I just upgraded my iPhone 3GS to iOS 5. All went well, then at the end, it asks me a few set ups (like language, Location, and WiFi settings).
    After that, it attempts to activate, and fails, giving me the following error in iTunes: "There is no SIM card installed in the iPhone you are attempting to activate."
    Problem is, there IS a SIM card in the phone, I tried taking it out, and putting it back in, tried with another SIM, tried the SIM in another phone, worked fine, just not the iPhone1!
    I would appreciate any help!
