New 3GS Bluetooth is not working

I just got the new iphone today, I tried to pair it with my existing apple headset and is not paring, I tried to pair it with my Jabra 700 (car) and is not pairing.
It does show the right device on under devices pairing ... but it will pair with either of them. Any suggestions?

I had a 3G.
It worked fine with my car (Mercedes).
I bought a 3GS.
It won't work with my car.
The phone can see the car. The car can see the phone.
I can enter the PIN on both the car and the phone. The car thinks the phone is authorized and available.
The phone won't complete connection when I click on the car name in the bluetooth device list, and the car can't activate the phone from its user interface.
Like I said, worked fine with the 3G and won't work with the 3GS.

IOS7 new update = bluetooth still not working

Very, very frustrated. I have an iPhone 5 and a Motorola Elite Sliver and ever since the iOS7 update my bluetooth is inopperable. My phone recognizes i have a headset, recognizes it by name, connects momentarily then disconnects. I've searched support communities high and low and tried all the recommended fixes, waited patiently for a new software update but still no bluetooth fix. This is bush league Apple.

Hello Schmaggin1,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
For more information on this, take a look at:
iOS: How to troubleshoot Bluetooth connections
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4562
Tap Settings > Bluetooth and locate the Bluetooth accessory you are currently connected to or attempting to connect to. Then tap and Forget this Device.
Reset network settings by tapping Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings.
If the steps above have not resolved the Bluetooth behavior you are experiencing, perform a software restore in iTunes.
Best of luck,
Mario

New aluminum bluetooth keyboard not working properly

Got the new aluminum keyboard and paired it with my MacBook Pro and everything went swimmingly. Love the key feel and the compact size. Updated the software to 1.2 and now I get the following behavior:
- The keyboard pairs up fine, and the battery level shows up
- The tab, arrow keys, delete, and tab all work fine
- No other keys work
I've tried restarting the MacBook Pro, and that solves the problem for a couple of minutes, but then the keys become non-functional again. Anybody have any idea what might be happening?

It appears that the problem was that I had Mouse Keys turned on in the Universal Access preferences. Turning that off allows me to use all keys now. Odd, as I've never made any changes to that preference pane. If the default is to have that turned on, perhaps Apple should make it clear that it must be turned off.

I updated my iphone 4S to 7.1.1 and now WIFI and Bluetooth do not work.

I updated my iphone 4S to 7.1.1. Immediately after doing this, my wifi is greyed out, (cannot even turn it on), and my bluetooth is not working at all. I have discussed with Apple several times and even went to an apple service center. They claim that I have a HW issue and that I must pay $200 for another phone. HAving been a cell phone HW designer for 15 years, I know this is not true. If this is a HW issue, it was caused by the FW update. There is a problem with my phone that is a direct result of the FW update. If I could go back to the previous version, I could prove it but there is no way for me to do that. So, it looks like iphone has released an update that "breaks" some phones. What an easy way to force people to pay them $200 for a new phone. Hmmm, if other electronic manufacturers catch on to this, we are screwed. Apple has seen the issues on the internet and has seen the issues reported on thier own Communities. They know that many people are reporting the same problem. If I can look it up, anyone can. They know that they have screwed up. So instead of biting the bullet and fixing what they broke, (peoples phones), they are taking advantage of the opportunity to make more money by telling people that they have a HW problem that they are not responsible for and that it is going to cost $200 to fix what Apple has screwed up. Just let me go back to the previous version of the IOS and my phone will work again. Is anyone else having this same issue? Has Apple lost it? I have been more than pleased with my phone. I have been thrilled with customer support. What is going on with apple? Samsung is looking better every minute.

Even if it is a hardware problem they should fix it regardless of warranty. If you buy a car and after 1.5 years the doors fall off due to a failure in their design and construction, do you think the car manufacturer could pull off what Apple is trying to do? Yes the car still delivers its primary objective of driving from A to B, but significant functionality has been lost due to their fault.
It is the same with this iPhone wifi problem. Apple are a disgrace, I have had significant Apple Hardware failures with my MacBook Pro and iPhone within 2 years of purchase. Pathetic quality.

Bluetooth is not working with Windows 8.1 on U410 touch

Hello,
I have a Lenovo U410 touch, and i just upgraded to windows 8.1 though the store.
And the bluetooth is not working at all, it says that the PC is searching for Bluetooth devices. While everything was working great before.
I have updated all the drivers from the Lenovo websites and still nothing is working
I went to device manager and checked under bluetooth: Intel (R) Centrino Wireless Bluettoth 4.0 + High Speed. Microsoft Bluettoth Enumator, Microsoft Bluetooth LE enumarator all 3 are up to date.
Then I went to network connections (from the start) and i have a red cross under Bluettoth network connection 2 and says not connected.
My windows is also up to date
I really think gooing back to Windows 8 since i cannot listen to my music on my beatbox and connect to my phone and tablet,
Thank you for your help

hi erabbath,
Welcome to the Forums.
If you have the Intel Centrino N2230 Wireless + Bluetooth adapter, can you try to:
1. Navigate to the Control Panel (large icon view) > Devices and Printers and try to pair a bluetooth device (i.e. Bluetooth Headset) and observe if it gets detected under the device list.
2. If the Bluetooth Headset is listed but it's not working try toright click on it > choose Properties. On the bluetooth properties Window, go to the Services Tab and check all the appropriate bluetooth services.
Sample picture
Let me know your findings.

Thank you very much for your answer,
I went to Control Panel > Devices and Printers and i tried to add a new device as the bluetooth doesn't appear this is what i got. By the way the bluetooth was on.
Link to picture
And this is what i have on the Bluettoth
And it search endlessly whereas before the upgrade it was working properly,
All the drivers are up to date as well as windows updates are all installed
Thanks in advance for your help

Yes it's in pairing mode, it worked fine with the 3GS but doesn't seem to work with the 4s, my 4s can't find any other bluetooth device, I think the problem ls with apple?

Bluetooth AR3011 not working SONY VAIO VPCA2S1E

Hello,
my problem is that the built-in bluetooth does not work, however it works on ubuntu. (It did not work there when I installed it either. But I am not using it anyway, just checked if it is available now.)
So I checked which hardware I have and it is Atheros AR3011.
The necessary firmware is ath3k-1.fw, as stated here: http://wireless.kernel.org/en/users/Drivers/ath3k
I have found an aur package for it, but it wouldn't install, since it is installed already. OK, checked it out via package file list, the linuwfirmware has it, which is installed.
Do you know what I could do to make it work?
I am new to kernel or drivers so any -seemingly stupid thing- basic thing would be of help.
(I don't even know if it loaded, tried using modprobe too, but I think without any success, didn't get any output from it - and I am not sure how to use it.)
Thanks,
B

Hi szebenyib
I have a ASUS Bluetooth USB dongle (USB-BT211) that uses the same Atheros AR3011 chip inside.
I've made this adapter work after this steps:
Be sure that your modules section on rc.conf don't load "automatically" the ath3k module.
Make sure that you have the ath3k module in the kernel ( ls -la /lib/firmware/ath* )(Probably you have if you are using a not too old kernel)
Then, load the module:
sudo moprobe ath3k
And, finally, insert the Bluetooth dongle.
Hummm, just after writing this I realized that you don't have a way to remove/insert. Hahahah
So you can try to remove the ath3k module after booting:
sudo modprobe -r ath3k
and after that, load the module again and see if it works.
If this don't work, paste here the "dmesg | tail" output and your kernel version. I'm not an expert in this thing but we can try some others way. Haha
By the way, I have installed the ath3k package from AUR, but I don't think that is necessary either. I will remove it and see if it works next boot.
Cheers,
Gabriel

My New Tab Page does not work at all. I just have the empty squares with nothing in them at all?

My New Tab Page does not work at all. I just have the empty squares with nothing in them at all?
I know how to use about:config & have had the usual problems with newtab page tiles but this is more like a bug- using 33.0.1. Doesn't show tiles icon in top right corner just shows a gear that is used to hide the empty tiles that I can't fill with sites. First it would only show 2 rows of 4 columns even though I had it set to 5 & 6 then few days later for no reason they went empty with a serrated line around the tiles & can't drag from the bookmarks---- really bloody annoying!!!!!!! Possibly a setting in the about:config but i can't fig it out?

Bluetooth is not working in my iphone 4

bluetooth is not working
in my iphone4

The solution that worked for me was to Backup and then Restore.
For the backup: you can do it via iTunes (plug the iPhone and right click over its icon on the Devices section and then choose Back Up) or download your photos, contacts and other important documents to your Mac using iPhoto (just download your photos) or apps like My Contacts Back Up (it will email you the full list so you can upload it to the iPhone later). Make sure you backup properly please!
After you have done the back up choose Restore in iTunes and that will erase all the files and apps from the iPhone so it will be back to the settings it had on the day you used it for the first time (you'll be able to recover all the apps you paid for since they'll be linked to the Apple ID you used to purchase them).
The iPhone will still have the latest version of iOS (6.1.3) so if the problem is -like in most cases- software related it would be fixed and you'll able to pair the device again. If not maybe you will have to downgrade the iOS to the previous version.
Hope this helps!

New FocusTraversalPolicy Mechanism Does Not Work Well With OO Designs

I would like to complain about the new focus traversal mechanism not working well with object-oriented GUI designs.
Specifically, we have many reusable panel classes that can be swapped in and out of reusable dialog classes. On some of these panels, the default focus traversal is not what is desirable, perhaps because one component on the right side of the window is just slightly higher than a component on the left side, maybe due to the component on the right having a label on top, and so the default focus goes to the component on the right instead of the left. So we have a need to be able to explicitly define the order of components in some panels.
If I try to define a focus traversal policy in the panel's constructor, a NullPointerException is thrown because the panel's focus cycle root is null (the panel has not been added to any dialog or frame yet).
If I try to associate a focus traversal policy at the dialog level, it would have to explicitly reference its child panels' inner components, which would break the encapsulation of the panels. It would also make it hard to have generic dialog classes into which various reusable panel objects can be swapped.
Someone suggested making each panel a focus cycle root. This makes it hard to "break out" of one panel to move on to the next panel in the dialog. Special keys would have to be assigned to try to cycle out, and these keys would have to be different than the normal traversal keys, making them inconsistent and nonintuitive to the user. Also, the focus policy would have to know if the dialog had more than one panel, what order the panels were in to know whether to cycle to the next panel or not, etc. This is a mess.
Does anyone have any idea how to get around these problems? I have tried using a global focus policy with a global hash map of prev/next component key-value pairs, but we are still running into trouble with some deeply nested tabbed dialogs. It's just not possible to always have the focus cycle root in existence at the point where you want to explicitly define traversal between two components, or when you are trying to establish the default component for a panel in a tabbed pane.
Has anyone else run into similar issues?
Robbie Gilbert

I agree completely. One of the popular consultants on this forum stated that the new focus mechanism was more versatile and only a little more complex. I would say it's more than a little complex given the trouble average programmers are having understanding how it works...at least at first...and after understanding it realizing that they are going to have type their fingers off to update their code. Oh, and the dread of maintaining this awful mess.
I'm currently having the same problem as you Robbie. Some of my reusable panels need special tab ordering...that's not usually a problem, in most programming environments, till now. Now I have to go around the world and back just to get my stupid cursor to be in the right place when I hit the tab key??!!! and special key mappings just to get out of a focus cycle...lame.
And how is an IDE graphical designer going to work with this? It's not, that's how...ok maybe if some kind person or company creates a custom focus traversal policy editor of some kind, I don't know.
Good grief Sun! We need something to help us meet our deadlines, not solutions that force us to spend 80% of our time customizing every stinking bit of UI functionality we need!!!
JTables are even worse. I've mastered most of the garbage that is JTable after many months of pain and I don't know how I'm going to help my peers understand them in any short amount of time. Most of them were Oracle Forms programmers, not that that is any great solution either. But they will likely have problems.
In conclusion, I wish I had chosen another UI technology for our new product client, and may yet.
