Hello there, DonnaLou.

If you feel you have gone through all of these steps already, the article recoommends:
If the issue persists after restoring your iOS device in iTunes, contact Apple for support and service options.
Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.

  • My iPhone 5 will not discover any Bluetooth devices I have. I followed the instructions after going to settings etc. and it just continues to search finding nothing. I've made sure the devices are on and ready

    Bluetooth not working

    If the iPhone 5 was purchased yesterday, you should still be within your free ninety (90) days of complimentary phone support.  Was it purchased as a new device, or second-hand?
    You have free options, such as the troubleshooting articles on this website:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3018
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3647
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1664
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4562
    Another free option is to get fifteen minutes of free troubleshooting support at a local Apple store.
    Another free option is the one that you just used, asking a question on this forum.
    Apple customers that pay for the Apple Care Protection Plan ($69 for an iPhone 5, to get double the length of hardware warranty, and twenty-one (21) extra months of troubleshooting support over the phone, live with an tech), get priority over customers that have chosen not to use that service.
    Use the right solution for your needs.  Some people are willing to pay for live tech support, others prefer the free options.

    Bought the Iphone 6   2 days ago. My mac pro finds the phone on bluetooth but phone will not discover ANY bluetooth divices. Have hard reset the phone and restarted as well. nothing. Any suggestions or issues. This is the first apple phone I have owned. Am not very happy that Bluetooth would present a problem.

    I can't help with the other devices but note that an iPhone will not pair via Bluetooth to a computer (Mac or Windows) except for personal hotspot and then only if your cellular plan supports it. https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-7722
    If you are attempting to use Handoff/Continuity, that does involve Bluetooth but the devices are NOT paired; Bluetooth just needs to be on and the devices in range of each other. The following may help with Handoff/Continuity issues: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS5458

  • Firefox will not open any new tabs since windows update

    I have windows 7 64, and recently, when windows automatically updated, my firefox will not open any new tabs, manually or when opening a link...

    Uninstall the Ask toolbar and it should work again. There is a compatibility issue with the Ask toolbar and Firefox that prevents new tabs from being opened.

  • My iphone 4 will not recognize any blutoooth devices

    I purchased this phone from an apple store... it was a refurb. The bluetooth stopped working soon after the warranty  was up. I have tryied almost everything short of taking it apart and swaping out the MB.(?)
    I have several bluetooth headsets none are 'discovered'. I have tried updating software, tuning bluetooth off and on. and restoring the phone.. ( which is a royal pain!)..
    I am wondering if there is any tricks to getting the phone to do a systems check,find a problem and show an error code.. or what part I would actually need to replace..??
    thanks

    Close all open apps by double-tapping the home button, then swiping up and off the screen with the app window (not the smaller icon).
    Reset your device: hold down the home button along with the sleep/wake button until the screen goes black and you see the Apple, then let go. (No data loss)

  • Bluetooth did not detect any Bluetooth device even iPhone  please help me

    I have iPhone 4 my Bluetooth did not detect any Bluetooth
    Device even iPhone so I can not transfer any data to other iPhone
    Please help me

    That is correct.
    This has  never been a feature of iphone.
    Sorry.
    Bluetooth is supported for stereo headsets/speakers, telephone headsets/handsfree devices, some keyboards, some peer-to-peer apps from the apps store, tethering where provided by the carrier.
    Other than these, it will not connect to another phone/device/computer/etc.

  • My iPad will not discover any blue tooth devices

    My iPad will not discover any blue tooth devices. The Bluetooth is turned on but it will only discover a Blackberry phone and not my other iPad or 5s and 4s or a QED receiver.

    To connect the devices over bluetooth, just enable Bluetooth in Settings app on both devices.
    Bluetooth is activated automatically when Wi-Fi connectivity is not available or does not work properly.
    Note: Initial Bluetooth connection takes around 15 seconds to activate.
    This is the directions for the app.  And all the reviews seem to just go right on through!  I have a love hate relationship with my apples!! 
    Thank you so much by the way for trying to help me!

  • Have a bluetooth issue, 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.

    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

    my Iphone 4 does not recognise any bluetooth divice

    Check the documentation for the Jawbone and put it in discovery mode. Turn bluetooth on for the iPhone and the Jawbone should show up on the phone. More than likely it will then ask for a passcode and that should be in the documentation as well. After that, they should be paired.
    Use this link to go to the Jawbone ERA site if you need instructions on pairing. Select pairing with your phone and there is information on how to get the headset into pairing mode and the passcode.

  • HT4623 iPhone 4s will not register with server after iOS 6 update

    My iPhone 4s will not register with server after iOS 6 update.  Does anyone has similar problem?

    Obviously since you have iOS 7 you're a developer.  As a developer, you signed a NDA with Apple not to discuss the iOS on a public forum.  Please log in to the Developer Forum using your credentials and ask for help there, lest you risk having your credentials terminated.
    Thanks, and best of luck to you.

  • T520 will not use any DVD Device

    Folks,
    I was going to do a backup, when I noticed the DVD player was no longer showing under My Computer.
    I when into the device manager, where it showed with a yellow X .. I tried updating the device driver, it said I already had the correct device. I did several other things - nothing worked.
    I really wanted to get the backup done, so I took my portable DVD player/writer and connected it. The laptop found a device loaded OK ... but it did not show up under My Computer. I was the same issue as the internal DVD player.
    Then I took a USB external Passport drive, connected to the same USB port, no issues .. It mounted the drive and I performed the backup.
    My T520 will not use any DVD device ... any Ideas ?

    Thanks .. That worked great ! I am saving that link ... It looks like it will fix other issues ... its not just a fix for the DVD player
    True, somehow this area goes south now and then. Last time I used it was on an old XT system of someone. He had some techs try to fix his machine and couldn't. I had it working in half an hour altering the keys. LOL
    You know there are exceptionally few KUDOS given on this forum for some reason and given the number of posts some people give or respond to. The great majority of posters just don't know or read it exists. Anyway good to see you up and running again.
