N8 not pairing with bluetooth headset when connect...

I have a weird issue!
My N8 connects to my bluetooth headset and functions flawlessly usually. But whenever I connect my N8 via bluetooth to my PC it stops pairing with the headset. The moment it connects with the PC, the headset icon appears in my N8, despite it not having paired the headset.
This issue is nagging me for quite some time. Any suggestions please...

I'm running a bit on thin here but let's see.
It might be possible that your N8 thinks the PC is acting as an audio device to your N8. Have you tried what happens when you have the connection establised over BT and you start playing music on the N8 or there's an incoming call? If the music is played through the N8 speakers or you can take a call, then audio is not routed through your PC.

How do I pair a bluetooth headset when my MAC doesn't recognize it? The hedset work properly because they are paired with my iPhone. The headset is not an Apple product. It'd 3rd party.

Ask the headset manufacturer.

Speech Recognition not working with bluetooth headset

I've got speakable items turned on and everything set the way it should, but I can't do spoken commands via a bluetooth headset. I've tried it on two seperate headsets by differing manufacturers, with no luck on either. I tried with a USB headset and it worked fine, but the bluetooth won't acknowledge any commands. They work fine in every other application, and the speakable items bubble thing that comes up shows sound being recognized fromt the set, just no commands acknowledged.

Problem solved and voice control via bluetooth headset has been restored. Here's how:
With headset off, go to Settings/General/Bluetooth and turn BT on. When the list of devices comes up showing "not connected," click the blue right arrow and then choose "forget this device." Shut down iPhone by holding top button until red slider shows up and sliding it to the right.
Remove battery from headset so it will reset. Restart iPhone (hold down top button until apple appears). Go to Settings/General/Bluetooth and make sure BT is "on." Replace battery in headset and turn it on. You should see the PIN entry screen, meaning that your headset is being re-paired with the iPhone. Enter the PIN for your headset.
At this point, try taping the BT button and see if you get "Voice Control" screen and double beep in headset. If so, you're done. If not, try this sequence again.

MacBook not pairing with Bluetooth Audio Sink Typhoon

I did not have success trying to get my MacBook to pair with a Typhoon Bluetooth Audio Receiver Set (http://www.typhoon.de/en/art.php?p=1523&pv=3 ).
The Typhoon device claims to be a A2DP-SNK (stereo audio sink) .
My MacBook (10.4.8 up to date, with a Bluetooth-MightyMouse) Bluetooth-Assistant finds it in "Search-all"-Mode and labels it as "BT Receiver", and also finds it if I search for Headsets alone.
But after that, it just sits there and "collects additional information.", which "should take only seconds".
There is no timeout on this, no error message is given either.
Actually, with this Audio-Receiver came an Audio-Transmitter (a USB-BT-Dongle). Connecting this with a MacBook USB-Port does not result in any reaction of the machine.
The BT-Dongle should be able to do most BT-profiles, including GAP,SPP,HSP,HID and A2DP.
The System.log does not show anything, except for a "kernel[0]: (3795: ps)tfp: failed on 0:" happening every 3 seconds continually.
I'm hoping for any ideas... Or should I dump this device?
Did anyone of you get an audio-sink (with Line-Out) working with OSX?
Thanks,

I've just found out that my Macbook's Bluetooth spec is Bluetooth 2.0+EDR and my keyboard's Bluetooth is 3.0. Would this be of any issue?

Iphone 4 ios 6 does not pair with bluetooth on 2008 BMW 325i

I just updated my iphone 4 to IOS 6 this morning. I got in my car and tried to pair the phone with bluetooth but it did not pair. I removed the device from the car's memory and tried to re-pair the device but it did not function. Can I roll back my iphone's operating system to 5.1 or how do I fix this?

I just discovered the same issue today in my efforts to get alert times synced on my iCal and iPhone after noticing a difference yesterday. I have been using the iCloud calendar sync since iCloud first came out with zero problems. Today I discover how terrible this sync is. My wife and I use a macbook, imac, 2 phones and 2 ipads to enter in calendar information and we depend on a flawless sync for our work and family schedules.
First, the iCal on my iMac has default times that get applied to every singe item, even if that item had an alert beforehand. But this default alert time is not applied as an alert on my iPhone4 calendar just the imac. I haven't even looked at my macbook yet for fear of what i may discover. After changing alerts and unchanging them and activating default times and deactivating them and wasting time doing this i just need to go through every event on my iphone to make sure that is now correct since I use that the most. What an unbelievable hassle for a program that worked flawlessly beforehand. Apple needs to recify this and have the sync work like it did before.
I am running:
Mavericks 10.9.1
iTunes 11.1.3
iCal Version 7.0 (1835.1)
iPhone4 on 7.0.4 (11B554a)

HT204368 iPod Touch not pairing with a device, when it did yesterday

I was able to connect my iPod Touch to my Samsung soundbar yesterday via Bluetooth. However, today I am having problems. the iPod recognizes my device but when I try to connect it keeps saying "connection unsuccessful, make sure device is turned on and in range". I reset my network settings and even reset all settings on my iPod. I turned it off and back on, turned the Samsung soundbar off and on and still no luck. I have an iPhone as well and that bluetooth is connecting successfully to the soundbar everytime. When I try to connect the iPod, I make sure my iPhone bluetooth is turned off. I just keep getting the same message everytime, that the connection is unsuccessful and it is driving me crazy! Is anyone else having this problem? My software is completely up to date and it is fully charged. Again, it was working just yesterday.

IPhone6 does not pairs with bluetooth head phones

I had been using Bose wireless head phones with iPhone 4S, recently I bought iPhone 6 but now I am not able to use my bluetooth head phones as the new iPhone6 does not reads them. Would appreciate any information on how I can correct this issue.

525G2 will not pair with one of my Bluetooth headsets

My Voyager Pro+ died last week and now my 525G2 will not pair with a Voyager Pro UC that I had laying around. It can see it, but when I enter the PIN code it says that it will not pair. The same headset will pair with my cell phone, so i know it's not the headset that is the problem.

What is an "expense bluetooth". Does it have a brand name and model number? is it compatible with the iPhone? Have you put it in pairing mode and paired it with the iPhone? Has it ever been paired with another device?

I can detect my Bluetooth devices using a BLE scanner and it says they can be connected but - My 5S will not pair with these devices

What devices?
Iphoen supports bluetooth for stereo headsets/speakers, handsfree telephone devices, some keyboards, some apps from the app store and interenet tethering if provided by your carrier.
It does not connect to computers, other phones,etc.

IPhone 4s will not pair with car bluetooth

My new iphone 4s will not pair with the bluetooth in my 07 Volvo XC70. The blue tooth is after market, looks similar to internet photos of Motorolla T605. Blue tooth says to put in scan mode and then enter code when prompted. Pairing fails and then the screen for the code shows up on the phone.
I had a iPhone 3s paired with this Bluetooth, and once when I did a reset of that phone had this issue, put through many attempts it eventually paired. Despite many attempts, I cannot get the 4S running IOS 5 to pair.
The phone does pair with a motorolla bluetooth ear piece.

I've been having this issue since I got an iPhone 4S last week. (Upgraded from iPhone 4 on iOS 5.0.1)
I would think that this is a software issue but I went ahead and visited an AT&T store to see about a replacement phone. I was directed to go to an Apple store which I then did. I explained this bluetooth issue I was having as well as the other issue with no audio on outbound calls (described in a different thread) and they gave me a new phone.
Well, I've tested it several times now with the nav/handsfree systems in two different cars as well as with my headset. All is good so far! No drop of bluetooth connection, can switch at will between audio sources and no lack of audio on outbound calls any more. (And these problems were happening frequently before, even after a complete restore.)

When bluetooth headset is connected to iphone,I can't hear iphone ringing aloud when I have a call or a text. Do i really have to wear the bluetooth headset all the time in my ear to know when I have a call or a message? Why it doesnt ring through iphone?

In other phones, you can hear the phone ringing and if it was connected to bluetooth, you could pick up the call from the bluetooth headset.
Here with iphone, if its connected to bluetooth headset, it only rings through the headset, which means that if you dont have the headset in the ear all the time, you cannot know that you have an incoming call or message.
Any ideas - solutions - comments please?

I'm having the same problem. I had a plantronics 975 (which I lost, sadly). When connected, the ringer would always be routed through the bluetooth and the iPhone's external speaker. When in silent mode, the iPhone would only vibrate, but I could still hear the ringer in the bluetooth.
I just bought a new Plantronics Voyager+. Now when it's connected, all sounds are routed to the earpiece - including the taps, etc. The iPhone's speaker doesn't ring at all, unless the bluetooth is disconnected or powered off. I'd really like to be able to hear both, like I was before. This is an iPhone 3G running iOS 4 (latest version, not sure what it is exactly). Haven't updated software/firmware in between bluetooths, just changed the earpiece.

Bluetooth will not pair with Moto Droid4

My Droid4 has will not pair with either my "Verzion" Jabra VBT-4050 nor my Jawbone Icon. Both these earpieces paired with this phone before, but will not now.
Makes no sense to me.
Thanks...Andy

westa510b,
That can certainly be confusing since it previously paired just fine with your device. We will be happy to take a closer look at this matter with you. Have you attempted to reboot the device? Tried deleting the bluetooth connection from the device, then re-establishing connection? Any changes recently to the devices software or additions of an application when you first noticed this issue began?

IPhone 5 won't pair with Bluetooth or connect to Wi-fi since reset

I reset my iphone 5 just before the latest update and since then it will not work on the bluetooth connection to my car. It goes the whole way through the pairing process but then fails as the passkey is incorrect. I updated the software in the car, I also checked another Iphone 5 and it works so it is not the car. I am now having the same problem with wi-fi, when connecting to a network it says the password is incorrect when it isn't. I have reset all connections, upgraded the software etc but it still wont work. Any ideas?

So let me see if I understand this. You have photos that are very important that you would like to get them back and you have 2-years worth of pictures and you have NEVER backed up the phone?
You can try after letting the device charge for at least 20 minutes to do a reset. Hold the sleep/wake and home button together until you see the Apple logo and then release. This should reboot the phone. If that does happen, I suggest you connect to your computer as soon as possible and you import the photos to the computer before you lose them completely. You should import photos from the phone as soon as you can after taking them, just like you would with a digital camera. And, without a backup, you will lose all of your data.

IPhone 4 Bluetooth will not pair with Jawbone Icon, Jawbone 2

Just got my iPhone today and am more or less thrilled to have it. The only problem (other than the antenna issue, which the bumper fixes beautifully) is that Bluetooth will not pair with any of my Bluetooth devices. When I turn on Bluetooth on the phone and turn on the headset, iPhone says it's "searching.." and "now discoverable" but it never discovers anything, let alone pair up. The Bluetooth on my MacBook recognized the iPhone and I was able to pair them, but no luck on the Jawbones. Sounds like a JB problem, but I'm wondering if anyone has had this problem and if there's a fix via the iPhone.

On the icon, turn it off and hold button down while sliding the power switch on. This should put it in pairing mode. Then go into your i4's bluetooth menu and give it another go. Also, Jawbone has recently updated the firmware for the Icon so you need to load it as well. I have the icon and a Jabra cruiser and both work/paired fine. You may want to try rebooting phone and retrying as well.
