My new iPhone 4S won't pair with my iPad

I recently got a new 4s and it won't pair with my iPad 2. I have had 2 4s that have always successfully paired with my iPad. Any suggestions on how to get them to pair?

Over Bluetooth?  No way, unless you're sharing a Personal Hotspot over Bluetooth and all devices are syncing to shared accounts over the internet, but not peer-to-peer over Bluetooth.
If you think otherwise, please explain exactly how, and what apps were being used to sync texting, calendars, notes, reminders peer-to-peer over Bluetooth.

  • I just bought a new 2013 Honda civic and my iPhone 4S won't pair with the cars Bluetooth device but it did on other people's iPhones; I have no other Bluetooth devices on my phone. Any suggestions?

    I have to ask,
    Are you making sure you are in park before attempting the sync?   The car won't allow you to do it in motion, whether or not you're the passenger.

    So are you saying that it does appear in the Bluetooth browser and after selecting it and then entering the passcode the keyboard fails to pair?

    my new iphone 5c does not pair with Macpro while Macpro display pairing via blue tooth and also my new iphon 5c does search other smart phones while Macpro does so

    The iPhone supports only a limited number of profiles and will only pair with a computer for internet sharing (tethering, hotspot if your cellular carrier plan supports that). http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3647

  • IPhone 5 won't pair with blueant

    iPhone 5 won't connect with my blueant headset, won't even find it to pair with it

    Hi Jonath4n,
    When you update or restore the firmware on your iPhone it is necessary to remove old pairing information and pair your BlueAnt device with your iPhone again.
    Please see our knowledgebase article here:

  • Iphone 6 won't pair with ipad air on ios8

    I want to use Continuity to be able to text non Apple phones (Android) from my iPad.  I learned that to do that you have to turn on Personal Hotspot and pair your devices via Bluetooth.  My devices won't pair.  They connect for a few seconds and drop or won't connect at all.

    Sorry to bother y'all.  I found the answer.
    The iPad also gains the ability with iOS 8 to send traditional SMS text messages via a connected iPhone. Previously, users could only said iMessages to Apple devices. While SMS messaging was available to test in iOS 8 beta releases, it is not included in the final release, and Apple has said it will become active in October.
    All of this same functionality will be coming to newer Bluetooth Low Energy capable Macs later this year with the launch of OS X Yosemite, which will also be a free update.

  • I have an old Mac laptop that Apple no longer supports -- so, I can't download the latest version of iTunes. Also, I got a new iPhone that won't communicate with my old version of iTunes. How do I transfer my music from my laptop to my new phone?

    Old version of iTunes on laptop won't transfer music to my new iPhone.

    Your profile shows you are running Lion (10.7.5). If this is the case, you certainly can sync with a new iPhone. If you are not running Lion, you will need to upgrade to at least Snow Leopard (10.6.8). See below to purchase.

  • New Iphone 5 won't synch with my itunes

    I just got a new iphone 5 and it won't synch with my itunes; it shows up in a seperate tab labeled "on this Iphone" and it also showed up as Cast's I phone when i first plugged it in; the only way i can put stuff on it is by manually dragging music to it and my itunes will be updated Hilary's I phone but it wont show up unless i manually drag it to this random tab; i am up to date on all my software on the phone and computer; please help this is so annoying.

    If "Manually manage content" is selected on the Summary tab there is no option to sync.

  • Brand new Iphone 5c won't sync with Itunes

    I am new to the Iphone.
    I just bought a new iPhone 5C and wanted to sync it with my itunes library. I have hooked up the phone to the computer with the USB cable provided, and updated my itunes to most current version.
    Everytime I have searched for help, the general answer is to hook up the iphone, and then choose the device under files tab. Or that the device should appear next to the tab that takes you to the itunes store. But neither of these show up as an option for me. ( I can click devices, but can't click anything after that).
    Any help will be appreciated.

    If you would have looked at the tech specs:
    Mac system requirements
    * Mac computer with USB 2.0 port
    * Mac OS X v10.5.8 or later
    * iTunes 9.2 or later (free download from www.itunes.com/download)
    * iTunes Store account
    * Internet access
    This has been out since the phone was launched. Depending on your Mac it might be a $30, or a 130. best to make an appt with your local Apple store to see what can be done.
    Good luck.

  • Got new iPhone 5 won't work with my computer because I don't have snow leopard.  Which cannot be purchased anywhere in town!  Is this seriously the only solution so that my phone will sync with my computer?

    When I plug in my new iPhone 5 to sync with my computer it tells me I need iTunes 7.  I tried to download it, but it will not load on my computer because I need a software upgrade to 10.6.8, which from what I understand is a paid upgrade to snow leopard.  I cannot find it anywhere!  All of our stores that sell Apple products do not carry it anymore.  My computer is a MacBook I bought in late August 2008, the ONLY thing wrong with it after all these years is this particular problem.  I thought Apple products were superior because of their long life in comparison to other computers, why would Apple shorten the lifespan of its product by no longer supporting it with software??

    10.6 Snow Leopard will run on any Intel mac. So that's any Mac made in the last 6 years. Snow Leopard came out in July 2009 and only cost $29. So you had over 3 years to have upgraded your MacBook.
    You're willing to pay a couple of hundred dollars for a new phone but not the $29 in the last three years to have upgraded your OS on your MacBook.
    The Snow Leopard 10.6 DVD should still be available from Apple for $20. You will have to call Apple Customer Care 1-800-692-7753 or 1-800-676-2775 to purchase it. It may still be in the Legacy Products list. The App Store which is required to download 10.7 Lion or 10.8 Mountain Lion is part of the 10.6.6 update.
    If they no longer have any in stock you will have to buy it from eBay or Apple resellers that still have stock. But you will have to pay a premium since the DVDs are no longer being made. Snow Leopard DVDs are already up to $100 on Amazon.

  • HT204387 My iPhone 4S won't connect with my iPad 4 in Bluetooth

    My iPhone 4S won't connect via bluetooth to my iPad 4 so. I can't use it as a hotspot any suggestions ?

    I have the same problem.  You can still connect via Wifi but it drains the battery on the iphone quickly.  Would love to know a fix for this problem.

  • My iPhone 4s won't pair with my PC, and iCloud hasn't completed a successful backup in over a month! What can I do?

    Hi guys, I would really appreciate some help with this. I've been to my local Apple Store's Genius bar twice and they have told me that they will replace the iPhone with a brand new 4s, however there is nothing they can do to help me get my important data off my phone (and until I do I can't give them this phone). 
    I normally would be able to just use iCloud backup to get my photos, videos and dozens of important audio memos synced off my phone, however (after connecting to a wifi but not paired) my iPhone's iCloud app waits about an hour saying "Backing up... Estimating time remaining..." then keeps spitting out "iCloud Backup failed. Please try again later".
    The other reason this is so frustrating is that my battery will ONLY charge when the phone is turned completely off - meaning, I only get to use my phone for about 1/2 the day before I need to turn my phone off to let it recharge. Plus the battery seems to drain more quickly than it used to.  Anyways, it's a bit of a first-world nightmare, accept that the audio memos I want to get off are so large (<100MB) and I have so many of them that I can't get them off fast enough using Google Drive or Dropbox...the wifi connection speed gets me about one or two every other day. 
    Any suggestions you might have will be really really appreciated...the fine folks at the Genius bar haven't been able to help, and Lord Google has been no help either.  Please help me get my data off my iPhone - thank you!!
    P.S. Also, I think it's a very odd coincidence that when I started using Evernote to record my audio memos (and have them synced off immediately), Evernote stopped syncing after about a dozen successful synced notes and now no longer syncs at all....sidenote: I'm scared to uninstall and reinstall the app for fear of losing the unsynced audio memos.

  • IPhone 6 won't pair with macbook

    I just purchased a new macbook pro with retina display. Upon getting it home and setting it up, I tried to pair it with my iPhone 6. Both devices recognize each other, but when I try to pair them it doesn't work. I've tried restarting both devices and "forgetting" the devices via bluetooth but nothing has worked. Is this a problem with my specific device? Or is this a problem that everyone is having? Any suggestions on how to remedy this?
