Need bluetooth headset that is compatible with the iPhone and a blackberry
Alright I have a blackberry curve right now because Ive been waiting for 2.0 to come out.
Now that its here, I need a little bit more time to to gather up the funds to get the phone, but I need to get a bluetooth now for work.
I'd like get a bluetooth now that I can use on my blackberry temporarily and then use it on my iPhone instead of having to fork over money twice.
Now I really want to get the dock for the iphone and I think I have seen pictures of a dock for a phone AND bluetooth?
Am I correct that this exsists?
I've seen the apple bluetooths and they dont have a ring that goes around your ear like most and I'm worried that just sticking it in my ear is not solid enough.
Normal music earphone buds dont seem to fit comfortablly in my ear, so I'd rather having something hanging from my ear as opposed to stuffed in it.
So is there a bluetooth headset with an ear ring that will plug into an apple phone dock for charging?

Can you buy a universal hook to clip on the apple earbud?
Yes. I have heard good things about this product:

I mean is there any rumor about them coming out with a new apple dock for 2.0?
Not that we've heard, though I'd imagine that one will be coming eventually.
If they are, and there is a universal hook that will clip on their ear piece, I would prefer to stick with the apple gear.
Apple doesn't make one to my knowledge

No Bluetooth headsets are compatible with IPhone 6 series-
I originally wrote this post to see if anyone else had come up with a solution to Apple's inability to engineer the Iphone 6 product line to be compliant with Bluetooth 4.0 that has been around for ONLY 5 years. Since you want to talk about driving while talking let's look at your evidence. 1) When you consider that the Washington Post will not admit to the number of participants participating in the study they site makes the study in valid as you cannot tell if any conclusion is statistically valid. The National Safety Council does not give what data it had or where it came from but is pure opinion- not factual. 2) When you look at your second source from Forbes- did you realize that the person who wrote it is a CONTRIBUTOR with no scientific data to back his conlusions? I happen to have be a licensed Insurance Agent for over 30 years. The largest insurance companies (who pay the claims) have not been able to draw conclusions about talking and driving as the number of incidents per million miles (determines the rates charged for coverage) have not been statistically different enough to go to state insurance commissioners to ask for rate increases due to talking and driving at the same time. The states that have enacted Hands Free Laws did so for 1 reason- if a person has 2 hands free to try to avoid an accident there is a higher probability that a driver will maintain control of their own vehicle vs. 1 hand. Can we stick to the subject- Do you think that APPLE should have made the IPhone 6 Compatible with Bluetooth Headsets and why haven't they done so yet?

Can Apple please send me a compatiable bluetooth headset?
This is a user to user forum. But I'm sure Apple would be happy to send you a compatible Bluetooth headset if you purchase one from the Apple Store. You could also order one from someplace like Amazon.com.

I recently upgraded from an iPhone 4s to an iPhone 5. I have a Motorola HX550 Bluetooth Headset which worked flawlessly with the iPhone 4s. However, since upgrading to the iPhone 5, I frequently lose audio when in the middle of a call. I am not certain whether it is a full disconnect or just an audio loss. The person on the other end reports still being able to hear me, however, I suppose they could hear me speaking over another source even if bluetooth disconnected. The loss of audio is always preceded by a quick shrill noise, so I can easily tell when it happens. All I have to do to fix the problem is to select Audio Source on the call screen, temporarily switch audio back to the iPhone, and then switch back to the headset, and then it starts working again.
Is is important to note that I am not the only one experiencing this issue:
This is a link to someone using the Motorola H19txt headset experiencing the same issue
https://forums.motorola.com/posts/94ac15ad7c
If you go to the Plantronics website and look at the "Ratings and Reviews" on the Voyager Legend you will see the same issue reported:
http://www.plantronics.com/us/product/voyager-legend (next paragraph is taken from the review since there is no direct link to the review.
Really nice Headset unless you own an Iphone 5. I own several Plantronics headsets and have always loved the quality/ performance. This headset seems not to be compatible with the new Iphone 5. In the middle of a conversation it will lose all incoming audio. This leaves you trying to switch audio sources really fast in order not to lose your phone call. Ive tried 3 legend headsets and they all do the same thing. Hopefully this gets fixed soon because the headset is really nice
Since this issue appears to affect multiple headsets from multiple vendors, I think it is fair to conclude that it is an issue with the iPhone5 bluetooth itself.
I am posting this as a new discussion as I don't see any other posts specific to this iPhone 5 Bluetooth issue. I would have reported this as a problem to Apple, but don't seem to be able to find a way to do this on the web. Hopefully they are already aware, but if not, maybe they will see i here.here is an interesting thing: take the iphone and set lock screen to never. Now make an email with siri--be sure to activate her with call button. get to the body and get some text in there. then just stop talking. LOCK SCREEN APPEARS!!!!!! and of course you draft is gone.
There does seem to be a work around for some--maybe all these issues. Don't use the call button--use the buttons on the phone.
Siri seems to behave properly with scenerio above---sans call button. She does not go to lock. -
Is the MOTOROLA® Roadster 2 Universal Bluetooth In-Car Speakerphone compatible with the Iphone?
Roadster 2 does NOT work well with the iPhone 5 s, has to be unlocked for Seri to work. An older Motorola blue tooth device the T 325 does work fine, speaker is not as great as the Roadster. It is cheaper and simpler. Verizon, who sold me the iPhone and Roadster does not seem to know this, I'll be returning the Roadster ASAP. This was the second unit Verizon sold me, the first only announced the number calling and could not access my contacts.

I'm looking for a digital picture frame that is compatible with the iPhone 5 and 4S. I was looking at the Panasonic MW-20 but from what I can see I don't think it is. Any information would be great. Looking to buy a replacement for Christmas. Thanks!
Hi - the new lightning connector on the iPhone 5 has an authentication chip so very few 3rd party manufacturers have come out with compatible devices - so I doubt that you will find a frame that works for both phones - however Apple has come out with 2 apapters - one is a cable and one is a direct 30 pin to lightning device - you would have to check out each frame to see if one of these might work - I looked at the Panasonic and it looks promising but I would check the return policy of anything that you buy in a case it doesn't work.

I want a Bluetooth headset that will work with my Ipad and Iphone
Hi there,
I carry arround with me a Ipad Air and Iphone 5 and would like a Bluetooth headset that will multi pair so that I can watch videos on my IPad but if a call comes though then transfer to my iPhone and then back to my iPad when the calls over.
Does any one know of a head set that will do this?
MAny tnanks in advance.pretty sure it's not
to both be able to do calls and other audio one need a headset which support the bluetooth profiles called a2dp
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bluetooth_profile#Advanced_Audio_Distribution_Profi le_.28A2DP.29
never heard of a single bluetooth device which supported being connected to more then 1 device at the time
suppose the headset you want would have to include 2 seperate bluetooth systems to support 2 connections -
Will speakers, charging docks, etc that are compatible with the iphone 3g
also work with the touch 2g?
Sounds like you have a pretty neat cordless phone that will sync with bluetooth! I may need to look into that!
I would have to suggest you contact the manufacturer of the cordless phone to see what devices can work.
My deductive reasoning would lead me to believe the iPhone 5 isn't compatable simply because you already have paired it with 2 other devices already that worked.
Good luck with your findings!

Is my Plantronics 245 Bluetooth Hands Free device compatible with the iPhone 6?
I have followed the pairing procedure, but the iPhone 6 does not recognize the device. Is it a lost cause?
Let's not give up just yet, vjpucci. Dilbertaz offered additional excellent clarifying steps for pairing bluetooth devices. Did it help?
If you are still experiencing connectivity issues, if you have not done so, please try updating your bluetooth headsets firmware. There may be a few bluetooth firmware/stack issues causing the problem. This can help!

FYI!!! Not 1 FM modulator on the market is compatible with the iPhone!!!!
Well I just wasted my whole day and ****** off everyone in customer service (returning FM Mods) trying to find one that would work, and guess what... THERE IS NOT ONE OUT THERE THAT IS COMPATIBLE WITH THE iPHONE. So I have 13 days to return my phone for a refund, so I’m giving Apple 12 days to fix this problem. Really, if Apple is going to have a $700 part time phone/part time iPod they can keep it. I'll gladly go back to my SLVRL7 and call it a day. How in the world (it’s 2007) do you not release a FM modulator compatible with the iPhone?? Don’t tell me they’re worried about losing money, this is a $700.00 phone, not everyone is going to stop buying iPods… I just don’t get it. It does bother me that I now have to buy a new FM Mod, but not even a 1/6th as much as it bothers me that Apple didn't release one, I mean they only had a couple of years to design one.
I at least hope this keeps someone from wasting their day.
Brands I’ve tried. (several versions of each)
Monster
Griffin
Belkin
Couple other generic brands1. Apple never released any of the iPods with FM receivers. 3rd party companies do.
2. Apple posted their iPhone specs long before it was released. Did you bother to even read the spec page? I know you must have because no one would blindly spend "$700" on a product.
3. All 3rd party FM tuners are made after the iPod was released (at least to be compatible with the current known generation.
4. The iPhone was released a few days ago. Try giving 3rd party companies some time? -
i've got a vodsaphone payg sim: i've been given an iphone 3g, and when i connected it to my mac and itunes, a message told me that the sim was :not compatible" with the iphone. is this because, as i've been told, my card is an old style sim and i need the newer style that works In smart phones? if so, how do i go about getting the right card.
Contact your carrier & get a new sim...they should give you one for free.

my Extensis suitcaseX 11.0.4 is no longer working with my system OSX10.6.8, what is the best and cheapest font management software to use that's compatible with this system and my existing CS design software?
If you upgraded to Snow Leopard, then it would seem that Suitcase 11 is not compatible with Snow Leopard and you'd need to buy Suitcase Fusion 3 for $99.95.

I replaced a faulty iPhone 4S with a new handset today, another iPhone 4S. I was certain to backup my previous iPhone 4S to iTunes on my PC before returning the faulty unit. The new phone was 'set up' at the Apple Store and updated to the current iOS, 7.0.4, as was the faulty unit prior to replacement. Upon connecting the new unit to iTunes to restore to the most recent restore point from earlier in the day, the following message was shown:
"iTunes could not restore iPhone because the backup was corrupt or not compatible with the iPhone that is being restored."
I've browsed other forums and have contacted the Apple Store Genius Bar, and will hear from the Lead Genius tomorrow. In the meantime, I am hoping someone may have information for me on what I may need to do in order to restore my phone as I'd anticipated doing by now. My photos, email and text messages are what is affected and have not repopulated. My music is accessable via iCloud without a problem and my contacts were kept via SIM. I regularly copy my Camera Roll from my iPhone to my computer, and most of my photos are still viewable via Apple TV/My Photo Stream however only through the photos last saved. The 348 recent photos that were on my faulty unit, and viewable in My Photo Stream were presumedly safe, but have disappeared.
I have yet to shut down or restart my computer, nor have I exited out of iTunes, for the simple reason that I'd anticipated returning home with the new handset and plug it into my computer to restore right away. I did, but that's as far as I've gotten.
Any help would be appreciated. Thank you!Had the exact same problem whilst upgrading my iphone 4 to ios5. Lost all my data.
Backed up ios 4.3 (8F190) iphone4. Upgraded to ios 5.1 (9B176), and then tried to restore.
No joy, repeated the restore attempts countless times - lost all my data
Tried again with a simulated test.
Created a new itunes account on a new PC (64-bit windows 7), latest itunes(10.6.1.7- 64 bit).
As my data is toast, I'm using the ios 5.1 phone to try to see if it was me or an apple bug, or something elsewhich caused this to happen.
After quite a few more hours at it, it looks like a bug in iTunes / ios. I would be very happy to be wrong, though.
Tried repeatedly restoring an ios 4.3 backup to 5.1 - no joy.
Happy to try again - it does restore partially (got the call register transferred, but no SMS'es or anything else).
Any ideas?
