Removing unused Bluetooth devices

My wife and I have iphone 6's and we see several Bluetooth devices listed under My Devices in Bluetooth Settings. They are not connected, but when I select the i button, there is no content under the device and the "Forget This Device" is greyed out and does not allow selection. How can I get rid of these listings??

GS60 Ghost Pro, remove all bluetooth devices

So I ran into an issue with my Ghost were I paired a Razer Orochi BT mouse and it stopped connecting. I unistalled the mouse and the BT driver for it (not the BT drivers themselves) and now I can't re-pair the mouse with the laptop. Is there somewhere I can delete whatever residual pairings the computer has with the mouse? I have uninstalled and reinstalled the BT drivers and it still shows up as a paired device but it will not connect. Any help would be appreciated.

I do not have a resolution to this problem but i am experiencing the exact same thing. Same mouse.

Cannot remove bluetooth devices in iOS 8

In bluetooth settings, I am trying to remove a bluetooth device using iOS 8 on an iPhone 5; however, when I select the device, "Forget This Device" is greyed out and unavailable. I have done some searching and found that this can happen with jailbroken phones, but mine is not jailbroken. I now have two devices that are in my iPhone bluetooth settings that have this issue: my iMac and my iPad.
Anyone else seeing this or knows of a fix?

I just found a solution that worked for me by disabling Handoff in both my iMac and my iPhone.
For OSX:
System Preferences → General and scroll down. Uncheck Allow Handoff between this Mac and iCloud devices
In iOS:
Go to Settings → General, scroll down and turn off the switch for Enable Handoff
I was then able to select forget for the desired bluetooth devices, and then switch Handoff back on.

Can't remove bluetooth device in file explorer.

I had an LG LS970 Phone paired with my windows 8.1 HP touchsmart PC. After I uninstalled the phone under bluetooth devices, it keeps showing up on my File Explorer. When I double click on it, an FTP No Response dialog box pops up. When i right click
on it, it does not give me an option to delete it. How do i get rid of it? I am also trying to pair my iPad with my PC but its not working. I think this might be a problem. Please help.

Hi,
According to your description, it must the driver which relate with LG-LS970 no uninstall completely.
First of all, please check Programs in Control Panel, make sure the Bluetooth related driver removed completely.
Seondly, Access to Device Manager, check is it had Bluetooth device driver, if so, uninstall or disable it.
Thirdly, Open Registry, CTRL+F, search LG-LS970, if it found any value, delete it.

Remove a Bluetooth Audio Input Device

Quick question...
I added a friend's Bluetooth headset to my MacBook Pro just to show him how easy it is to integrate Bluetooth devices to OS X, and anyway, I go home, and the Bluetooth headset is still under my audio input devices. How do I remove this out of there? I thought of deleting the Sound Preferences pane, but I don't think that would do the trick...

I'd try here.

Remove bluetooth device - device not available

I have a iPhone 5 and recently traded in a car that was paired via bluetooth. I did not think to undo the pairing prior to saying goodbye.
I know it is not a big issue and won't mess with the new vehicle, but I just like things neat and tidy and would like to remove it from the list.
The real stinky thing about it is that both vehicles are the same model and I now have two items in the list with the same name and only one is valid.
Any way to delete it?

I was attempting to remove the device from the list on the phone. For some reason I could not do that when selecting the device. It would not go to the that next screen. This is while I was connected to the new vehicle.
Once I was away from the vehicle, where it could not connect, I was able to access that additional screen and forget the device. I did this before I saw your response. But you are absolutely correct. I would just add a caveat to not have any connection with any bluetooth device while attempting to forget another device unless of course it is the device that you are currently connected to.
Chris - Thank you for your response

How do i add a bluetooth device to my mac? There is no " +" button in my bluetooth preferences and turning the devices to discover mode doesn't work

The Bluetooth setup assistant should "find" a device in range when that device is turned on. What are you trying to add?

Blackberry Device Manager can't find 9320 Bluetooth device (even Bluetooth is switched on and set to Discoverable)

I want to sync my Blackberry 9320 via Bluetooth to a Windows 7 Professional machine using a Bluetooth adapter. Syncing using USB cable works fine.
I can Bluetooth pair with the 9320 and also send / receive files to /from the Windows 7 machine. Fantastic !
HOWEVER, Blackberry Device Manager can not find the 9320 Bluetooth device (even Bluetooth is switched on and set to Discoverable) - see screen shots below.
By the way I have already tried (amongst other things) “Manually Install RIM Virtual Serial Ports in Microsoft® Windows® 7” on http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gK2n5dHxGHI Unfortunately, this does now work - the drivers do load up OK and remove the warning signs when view in Windows Device Manager, but Blackberry Device Manager still can't see my 9320.
Please help !

I have the exact same problem with my 9360. I have also tried all the fixes I could find on the Internet with no luck. I have posted a request as well. I will let you know if I find a solution. What gets me though is that this appears to be a long standing issue with no obvious fix! Best of luck.

Bluetooth device delete

just synced new iPhone 6 plus, I don't know what I did or how it happened, I have my iPad mini and old Iphone 5 in list of devices in Bluetooth
I can't seem to delete the devices. Can anyone help?

It's a bit involved. I had done it last August.
Had the same problem of old device name appearing in the Bluetooth File Exchange. Tried the following….
1. Stop Bluetooth.
2. Went to the com.apple.Bluetooth.plist file in ~\Library\Preference folder.
3. Back up the preference file to Desktop.
4. Open the file with Property List Editor and there is a “FavoriteDevices” array that list your current favorite Bluetooth devices. Further down, you should see another key “RecentDevices” that list current & old devices. Match the FavoriteDevices and RecentDevices and remove the “extras” from the RecentDevices list.
5. Restart Bluetooth.
The old devices should be removed from list when you restart Bluetooth File Exchange.

Bluetooth Device

Is there a way to "recall" or "remember" forgotten/removed bluetooth devices?I've seen this question around the web on different forums, but no answers.

Hello, and Welcome to the HP Support Community!
In answer to your question, No. Unless you pay hideous amounts of money to specialized entities, the data is gone.

Bluetooth device detection

Hi everyone!
(I am newb at Java, and im looking for a very simple application (i think), but im not sure how to find what im looking for, i tried sourceforge.net, but i dont know how to run the java source files.)
What im looking for is an app for PC that searches for bluetooth devices in the area, and logs their MAC address into a file (preferably .xml)
It should continuously search for devices, and update the .xml file everytime it finds a new device, or an old one dissapears, so i always know what devices are in the area at this excact moment.
Have you ever heard of such a thing, or do you simply have some good keywords for me to use :) Either way i would be very thankful for your help! :)
Cheers,
Lars

Ok, here is my code a bit more formatted:
public void run() {
lock = new Object();
while (!done) {
doSearch();
    try {
    thread.sleep(DISCOVERY_LATENCY); //2000ms
    } catch (Throwable t) {}
* Start a new Device discovery
synchronized public void doSearch() {
try {
//get local bluetooth device
local = LocalDevice.getLocalDevice();
//get discovery agent
agent = local.getDiscoveryAgent();
//start a new Bluetooth discovery inquiry
agent.startInquiry(DiscoveryAgent.GIAC,this);
//we lock the thread and wait the end of the current inquiry
synchronized(lock) {
    try {
    lock.wait();
    } catch (InterruptedException e) {}
} catch (Exception e) {}
*We detected one bluetooth devices
public void deviceDiscovered(javax.bluetooth.RemoteDevice remoteDevice, javax.bluetooth.DeviceClass deviceClass) {
try {
// get the bluetooth MAC address of that device and remove any white space
String value = remoteDevice.getBluetoothAddress().trim();
if(checkTable(value) && doneDetection == false)
doneDetection = true;
launchHotSpotPage("test");
} catch (Exception e) {
System.err.println("BLUETOOH ERROR");
* The bluetooth discovery inquiry has been completed
public void inquiryCompleted(int discType) {
local = null;
agent = null;
//We unlock the thread in order to make a new discovery
synchronized(lock) {
try {
lock.notify();
} catch (Exception e) {
System.err.println("BLUETOOH ERROR");
lock = null;
lock = new Object();
}

Try re-pairing the device as "forgetting" has just removed the device identity

Bluetooth Device Name Change

And I do mean "Device Name".
Trying to figure out how to change the device name for a bluetooth device. Now, I know how to change the display name. Select the device in Bluetooth Preferences, click the Gears, and select "Rename." Which is fine. But when you examine the info for the device, their are two names: A "Name" at the top and then a "Display Name."
How do you change the display name? I picked up a refurb trackpad and it still has the previous owners name, Aaron, in the Name block. I can change the Display name to John easy, but I am confounded by the device name.
I tried removing the trackpad, dumping the BT prefs in the library and repairing. Doesn't work.
I even pair it to a Win7 laptop, changed the name there, but Aaron remain when I take it back to the Mac.
So how do you change BOTH names? Is their a way to reset a Trackpad back to factory?

Well I was tired of finding a fix online and ended up calling Apple Care…
Here's is what did the trick:
1. drag the "com.apple.Bluetooth.plist file" and the other 2 .plist files (com.apple.BluetoothXXXX.plist) to your desktop
2. shut down your Mac
3. turn it back on, and quickly press "command+option+p+r", HOLD until there comes the second and third "startup sound"
4. login and rename the magic mouse as usual under Bluetooth preferences
5. dump the old "com.apple.Bluetooth.plist" from your desktop into trash and move the other two .plists back to their original location
Well it worked for me~
Hope this works for those who couldn't find a clue on how to fix the issue (I tried editing the "com.apple.Bluetooth.plist" but couldn't fix it, that's why I had to call Apple Care, you might have to try this if you have no luck editing the "com.apple.Bluetooth.plist" file…)
