Pairing iPhone with MacBook on FIOS network

We recently got FIOS in our apartment. I have no problem connecting to our FIOS network on my MacBook via Airport or on my iPhone. However, I cannot get my iphone and MacBook to pair via FIOS. I recently had everything wiped off my MacBook and restored. I have Fliq Notes on my iPhone and had synced it using Mark/Space Notebook on the mac. Now, I can't access the notes or their categories on Mark/Space Notebook -- all that seems to be left is the application (recovered through Time Machine). I've been trying to get the information back onto my MacBook by syncing from the iPhone, but when I go to pair the two devices, I just get a ghosted "looking" within Fliq Notes. I'd prefer not having to purchase an ethernet cable, and want to know if there is another way to get the two to see each other and pair so I can sync the data.

You mentioned that the apps were restored from a backup. Try reinstalling the Missing Sync app on your computer. Next go thru the pairing process again. I don't have access to test pairing with a fiber optic connection. If you're able to pair, change the notes plugin settings to Device overwrites desktop. The notes database could be corrupted if the sync fails. You could locate the notebook database, move it and try the overwrite sync again.

Can't pair iphone with macbook (air)

I haven't been able to pair my iphone 3GS with my macbook. I want to pair it via bluetooth to use an app that I purchased to control keynote.
I have had this problem with a macbook and macbook air. Two weeks ago my main computer was an older black macbook and my iphone would not pair with my macbook, I thought maybe because the macbook was just getting on; as my (bad) luck would have it I was foced to purchase a new computer, and purchased a macbook air and I am just finding that it still doesn't work.
When I go to pair it, I can get to the point where I accept the pair but then when I click on pair from the iphone, it says my macbook is not supported.
I have searched these forums and have not found an answer that works for me. Thanks in advance for any help that you can give.

This is a problem with the bluetooth and the macbook air. I mentioned the reason behind my need to pair - as it is not to share music, internet, etc. which I understand may be an issue. I cannot find how to get support from the app maker, which is apple from my understanding. This app, keynote, only controls the keynote app on my mac. I haven't had any problem pairing the iphone and keynote but I need to control my keynote using bluetooth, as I have no garuntee that I will always be in a place with wifi or be able to access the wifi.

If you have your old computer then transfer your iTunes folders to the new computer. If not then you need to use a third-party utility such as Phone to Mac - Pod to Mac | Macroplant.com.

Permanently pair iphone to macbook pro

Hi,
Can someone please tell me how to permanently pair an iPhone to a Macbook Pro? I have had several iPhones and multiple laptops that do the following:
1. Pair phone with laptop. Connect to network (for tether). Everything works fine.
2. After a short period of time (like maybe a week or two), if I try to connect the two devices again, they act as though they've never been paired before and demand that I re-pair them, even though they do actually know of each other's existence (they appear in each other's lists).
3. Goto 1
Contrast this with two wifi-only iPads I have used with the same iPhones:
1. Pair phone with iPad. Connect to network.
2. Use forever.
I would like to make the laptops behave like the iPads. Any way to do this?

One way is via Photo Stream: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4486

Can't Pair Phone with Macbook Air with Yosemite

I just upgraded to Yosemite and now I can't pair my iPhone 6 with my Macbook Air. I believe, and I may be wrong, that I have to have the devices paired via Bluetooth to have the features such s being able to answer my phone on my MacBook Air, or using my Air to make a call via my iPhone etc..
This will be the first time I have tried to pair them together.
Both my Phone and my MacBook Air show the other device. When I click on pair on the Air I get the message with the number, which shows on my phone as well, and then I click pair on the phone to accept, and then I get the error "Connection Unsuccessful" saying that my MacBook Air is not supported. Really?
Is this a fix coming with IOS 8.1?
Anybody have an answer?

ok. I figured it out. Not the bluetooth part, still won't pair, but I have the "answering my iPhone" with my mac part figured out. I just had to turn on the "iPhone cellular calls" option under FaceTime settings.

Cant pair divice with macbook air

cant pair my iphone with my macbook air via bluetooth

I understand Apple does not monitor these forums. That is why, as I said, I already registered my complaint directly with Apple.
Why do I "expect it to change"? I don't expect; nor do I not expect. I'm neutral regarding expectations. I hope, however, as do many. And it's not an unreasonable request: given Apple's slogan "It just works", and their highly touted connectivity among all their devices, this seems a ridiculous exception that is a real inconvenience. Especially since, as I indicated above, USB connection doesn't help either.
Thank you for your suggested workarounds. However, they won't help me. To clarify: I need to print a hard copy of this PDF in the next two hours. I cannot print directly from my iphone. I could print from my computer, but obviously I need to get the document to my computer first. Wifi is temporarily unavailable where I am. There is no cable connection either. Therefore my computer is cut off from the internet, so I cannot check email from it. The only way to get the PDF onto my computer is to transfer it from my iphone. Since Apple does not support Bluetooth connection (which is ridiculous, as noted above), the only other way is via USB cable. But Apple does not support this either (which is even more ridiculous). So there is no way for me to get this PDF to my computer to print it out.
Apple should support both bluetooth and USB compatibility for file transfer between their devices. Judging by the number of discussions on this, it's neither an unusual nor unreasonable request.
I did find one workaround; one way I can get the PDF to the computer: from the iphone, open the PDF in ibooks; then sync with the computer via USB. This will import the file to ibooks on the computer. However, there is a problem: if I open the PDF in ibooks, it is automatically saved to icloud. This may not seem like a problem, but it is: some files — such as this one — are confidential; one may not want it in the cloud. In the case of this PDF, I could get in big trouble for allowing a copy to be in the cloud.
In general, I've noticed a trend (not just with Apple): as they add ways to use the cloud (which is good), they remove ways of doing the same tasks via older methods, e.g. via USB cable. In essence, one is forced to use the cloud. I've spoken with several Apple representatives about this, and it's almost as if they cannot comprehend why anyone would NOT want to use the cloud. They say "but now you don't have to use a cable; the cloud is much more convenient. And it saves a backup for you!" Of course the cloud is convenient, but for any number of reasons I might not want to use it. They should not force one to — they should not remove other simple options that were working just fine.

IPhone kicks Macbook off wireless network?

Alright, this is rather bizarre. I have D-Link DIR 625 wireless router, and I had no issues with Macbook (and other computers) connecting to it at all.
I also connect my iPhone to the same wireless network. However, all of a sudden (the only change I know of is update to 10.5.7), if Macbook is connected to the wireless first, and I connect iPhone second, the Macbook looses the connection. If I restart the AirPort on the Macbook, then they both co-exist on the network with no issues. No other computer on the wireless network is affected.
Does anyone know what could be going on here? This is reproducible each time. All I have to do is turn iPhone on (it auto connects to the preferred network) and Macbook is out .

Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

Pair iphone with GPS receiver?

Is it possible to get an A2DP dongle for the iphone and then pair it with a bluetooth GPS receiver, thereby using the iPhone as a GPS? I don't want to buy all this junk if it's impossible. Thanks for any info!

No. Bluetooth only works for Audio.

Cannot pair iPhone with iMac

I have an iPhone 5c, iOS 8.1, and an iMac running Mavericks. I am trying to pair my iPhone with the iMac (via Bluetooth) and it will not let me do so. I just finished reading a post from 2008, stating that it was not possible. Is this true??? I could pair my old flip phone (non-Apple) to it without difficulty. Hard to believe I cannot pair 2 Apple products together.
Thanks,
Glen

iOS devices don't natively support file transfer over BT.
You can use Photo Stream to access all of your pictures from all of your devices.
My Photo Stream FAQ
Depending on which model iMac you have, you may be able to use Airdrop.
Mac Basics: AirDrop lets you send files from your Mac to nearby Macs and iOS devices
I'd also take a look in the App Stores (Mac and iOS) for apps that will let you transfer pictures between the two devices wirelessly.

Pairing Iphone with Lexus

I previously had a 3G Iphone which paired brilliantly with my bluetooth system in my 4 year old car. However, the new 3GS Iphone does not pair at all, the Iphone can not find any devices. I'm guessing this maybe to do with the 3GS software being version 2.1 as opposed to 2.0 and is now not compatible with my LX-350 Lexus. If this is the case, is it possible to download the older version? or is there another way around this problem?

I had this same problem a couple of times with previous versions of the frimware on my Acura TL.... Here's what worked for me when I upgraded to the 3gs... Do a hard reset on your phone (hold the sleep/wake button and home button simultaneously for about 10 seconds or so) the phone will shut down... Release the two buttons and turn your phone back on... Try the pairing process now, it should have fixed the problem... If that doesn't fix the problem then do a restore in iTunes... The restore method worked for me back in the 2.0 firmware days.... Good luck

Pairing iPhone with a 2006 Audi Q7

Anyone had any success pairing an iPhone with a 2006 Audi Q7. It initially seemed to pair with ease. Now it is less frequently creating a Bluetooth connection with the car. The phone is saying that it is successfully paired with the car. Any suggestions

Your iPhone is probably still running 1.1.3. If you upgrade to 1.1.4, your iPhone will be able to pair up with the GPS perfectly. I have two Garmin Nuvi 680s and my iPhones pair up with them with 1.1.4 with no problems.

Problem after iOS5 with pairing iPhone with Car

I have a Lexus is250 which paired beautifully with my iPhone and I was able to play music from phone in my car. Since the upgrade, I cannot. I have "repaired" "Blue tooth audio", the radio in car "looks" like it is playing (you can use the controls on the car stereo to forward through playlist and it forwards on phone" but no sound comes out. This worked perfectly fine before iOS. Any ideas? I've deleted and re-paired phone twice....

Same problem here with a 2011 Subaru Outback/Harman Kardon sound system. My iPhone 3GS used to work very well and auto-connect with the Harman Kardon system under iOS 4, but after upgrading to iOS 5 the iPhone looses connectivity each time I power the iPhone off and back on. It will keep connectivity as long as I do not do this. Turning the car off and back on works fine, connectivity re-establishes immediately. I even reset my iPhone and re-installed firmware and everything else - problem persists. SHAME ON APPLE FOR LOOSING CORE FUNCTIONALITY IN FAVOR OF BRINGING IN LOTS OF GIMMICS THAT ARE OF LITTLE OR NO USE IN EVERYDAY LIFE. SHAME ON APPLE ALSO FOR NOT PROPERLY BETA-TESTING THEIR SOFTWARE AND MAINTAINING BACKWARD-COMPATIBILITY IF THAT IS THE PROBLEM. We users should be entilted to monetary compensation from Apple whenever a software "upgrade" negatively affects a core functionality. Tim Cook, please correct some of the flawed corporate policies the belated Steve Jobs implemented. Apple still has a lot of room for improving! First of all, focus on optimizing core functionalities and their robustness before wasting time on changing icons or other cosmetic features.
