Samsung D600 won't pair with iMac

I've just received a Samsung D600 mobile phone (UK), and it will not pair with my iMac (X 10.4.10).
Trying to pair from the phone, and the phone sees the Mac, try to pair and enter the code on both the phone and computer, and it fails.
Trying to pair from the computer and it sees the phone, gives me a pairing code, but the phone doesn't activate and ask for the code.
The phone bluetooth is on and discoverable.
I had no problem with my previous phone (Sony Ericsson W710i), now this is also failing to pair.
Please help as there are several photos on the Samsung I want to transfer. USB doesn't work on the Mac either, plugged the cable into a powered port, and nothing happened on the Mac, even after setting the phone to mass storage device.
Thanks,
Pete.

Update: Just got a Casio G'z One Ravine2. works very good with the car.

  • Apple Wireless Keyboard won't pair with iMac...

    I just bought a new 27" iMac and had customized and shipped from Apple (didn't buy it off the shelf in the Apple Store).
    When the new iMac got here today, I connected it to my aftermarket (wired USB) keyboard and trackball. It works fine.
    My problem is that I need to use my old iMac for several days while I get files off of it, etc. (don't want to use migration assistant). My old iMac is last year's 24" model.
    When I start my old iMac, it comes on and brings up a "Bluetooth Setup Assistant" window and starts automatically searching for a bluetooth keyboard. I read the instructions online, and powered-on the Apple Wireless Keyboard that came with my new iMac. I powered on this new keyboard, and my old iMac starts to recognize it (it says "Attempting to connect to keyboard"), but then says there has been an error, and doesn't recognize it.
    The instructions online say that when I power on my Apple Wireless Keyboard, the green light on it should start blinking. It doesn't. It just comes on for about three seconds and goes off.
    What's wrong? I need to get my old iMac to recognize this keyboard. I can't even safely shut if off if it doesn't. Could it be that it was already paired to the iMac it came with? I've replaced the batteries, and still it doesn't work. Please help!
    Thanks!

    Well, of course that had occurred to me. But I need to use both computers at once for a while, and I only have one wired, USB keyboard.
    Anyway, I eventually got it to work. I still don't know what the problem was.

  • Rapoo Wireless keyboard E-6300 won't pair with iPhone 3GS

    As the title says: Rapoo Wireless keyboard E-6300 won't pair with iPhone 3GS.
    Any ideas?

    my iphone 4 been paired with both a sandberg mini bluetooth keyboard and an imac keyboard key <pun>
    is that I have to make sure it only paired with 1 device at the time or it will not work
    but since it can pair with the appletv then I guess it's not that

  • I just downloaded the newest IOS software and now my iPhone5 won't pair with the Bluetooth in my car (the car system says it's paired when I try to re-pair it but then when n try to make a call it tells me it doesn't recognize the phone.

    I just downloaded the IOS upgrade, 7.0.2, and now my iPhone 5 won't pair with my Bluetooth in my car, despite repeated attempts to re-pair the two and despite the fact it's been paired fine previously.  The car system tells me it's paired but then when I try to make a call I get another message that says there is no paired phone.

    You can't override it no matter what you do. The device has to connect to the server to complete the iOS update. You could try rebooting the iPad and see if that lets you connect to the server after it starts up.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
    If that will not work, you can try connecting to iTunes on your computer and see if the activation will complete. Sometimes when thes activation issues arise, you end up having to restore the device again, but first things first. Reboot and see what happens.

  • My ipod touch 4th gen won't pair with bluetooth audio receiver?

    My ipod touch 4th gen won't pair with my aluratech istream universal bluetooth audio receiver.  It automatically paired the first time I used it, but now will not pair.  I removed the bluetooth receiver from the ipod because it kept saying make sure the receiver device is on and within range.  Now it doesn't even detect the bluetooth receiver.  Any ideas?

    Thank you!  We got the bluetooth receiver to use with our car stereo and our motorcycle stereo and were very frustrated when it quit working.  Thank you for helping me solve the problem!

  • IPhone6 won't pair with BlueTooth on MBPro

    IPhone6, iOS 8.1.1 won't pair with BlueTooth on MBPro nor can I use it as Blue Tooth "hands free" device in my car. Blue Tooth is enabled on the phone and on the MBPro.  I try to "connect to network" on the iPhone, using BT preferences on the MBPro, but get the message "can't connect" . On the MBPro, have gone to Sys. Pref., Network, can see the phone but again get the same message when I try to connect.
    On the phone under the green button (which enables) the BlueTooth, I see the word "other devices" and a spinning beach ball as the phone tries to find additional devices but no joy.
    Have Googled the problem, am reading similar issues - people seem to think it was the new iOS 8.0 and 8.1.1 was supposed to be a fix but it isn't.  Any thoughts out there would be much appreciated.

    Great - finally got our iPhones6 "discoverable" on our car. Whew!!!  Thank you so much.
    But, still can't pair our iPHone with my MBPro.  Follwed directions on your link but no joy....<sigh>
    The MBPro does NOT find the iPhone device. Don't know why......
    However, the biggest problem is solved, hopefully.....that being the car/phone connection.
    Appreciate the assistance.
    thx

  • Bluetooth for iPhone 6 still won't pair with my car after iOS 8.1 update

    So frustrated. I assumed that Apple knew about the problem and that iOS 8.1 would fix what is clearly a very common/widespread issue. Bluetooth is not exactly a new technology... how is it that Apple creates a highly advanced phone, but it can't make a 10-15 years-old technology work?
    I never had any issues with my 5S, but my iPhone 6 has not been able to pair with the Bluetooth in my 2011 Mini Cooper since the day I got it (no phone or BT audio). The 8.1 update has had zero effect on the sequence of events that occur when I try to pair my phone. The car has no problem recognizing the phone, and I can see the car listed under Bluetooth devices, and when I select the car from the list of devices on the phone, the screen to enter the pairing code comes up on my car display. The problem is that the phone never gives me the code to enter into the car display.
    I have tried all the "tricks" people have used to get their BT to work (deleting all phones from car, resetting all phone settings, renaming the phone, etc). Nothing works for me. I really don't want to have to get rid of my 6, but since Apple has never publicly acknowledged the problem, I have no way of knowing if this is ever going to be fixed.
    Really disappointed in you Apple. This is my 3rd iPhone, and you're about to lose a loyal customer if you don't get this sorted out very soon.

    The same problem here.  iPhone 6 with iOS 8.1.2 and bmw 328i 2013 with latest Bluetooth update doesn't pair. The phone will see the car in bluetooh settings but fails to connect.  Based on apple tech support I did the following:
    1. powered thr phone down and back on- no help
    2. Removed all other phones from iDrive- no help
    3. Tried with wi if off - no help
    4. Reset network settings- no help
    5. Restored my phone entirely to factory settings- no help
    The phone can pair to other Bluetooth devices and the car can pair with iphone 4 running iOS 7 no problem. my wife's iphone 6 won't pair with my car either.
    I sure hope apple is still working to correct this!

  • Apple keyboard won't pair with any devices

    I just cleaned my niece's apple wireless keyboard using the mister clean magic eraser. I did not removed the batteries in doing so. What happened was the keyboard did not interact properly with the mac that it was connected to. Now I've tried replacing the battery with a new one. I tried pairing this keyboard to my iPad air and macbook pro. It won't pair with both devices. When I tried putting in the numbers that the computer gives me there's a delayed response. Is they keyboard broke. Apple should've placed a reset button on the keyboard. I don't know what to do.

    i just used the mr. clean magic eraser. it's a sponge that you use to wipe out the dirt. it did a good. I just didn't remove the batteries or the KB was on at that time so the LED indicator was blinking. When I was done cleaning my niece notice that it wouldn't funciton properly. I tried pairing it again. I followed that step were you had to hold the power button for 6 seconds to reset it. It still did not pair. I tried pairing it to my mac and ipad air. It won't pair at all. Whenever I type in the code to pair it. It would stop pairing at the first number that I typed. So I don't know what to do next. Apple should've placed a small reset button to reset the whole KB.

  • Hi, I just returned from the Apple Store in Larkspur CA and paired my wireless mouse with one of their computers, but it's won't pair with mine at home. Bluetooth is on and it recognizes the wireless keyboard, see's the wireless mouse but won't pair.

    I have to ask,
    Are you making sure you are in park before attempting the sync?   The car won't allow you to do it in motion, whether or not you're the passenger.

  • Z10 won't pair with playbook

    Downloaded BBY Bridge on to Z10, won't pair with Playbook.  Phone says I'm paired but Playbook doesn't see it.  OS on Playbook 2.1.0.1753.  Any help?

    That is normal, if you use the browser on the PlayBook, it will automatically use the Bridge to connect to the Internet when you are on the go, as for the contact andcalendar, well they are already shared through the Calendar and Contact on both device since they both can use the same online source.
    The BBM and the texting program where the only program that needed to be shared using the bridge

  • My wireless keyboard won't pair with my computer

    help, my wireless keyboard won't pair with my computer.  the green light blinks and it won't sync during the pairing process.

    Did it pair earlier??
    I just lost my Wireless kbd Bluetooth connection twice recently. And found the following solution:
    1. Delete the kbd from Bluetooth system prefs.
    2. Shut down the kbd
    3. In system prefs, keyboard choose "Configure Bluetooth keyboard..." at the bottom
    4. Press the power button on the kbd until the green LED blinks, kbd gets detected
    5. Switch OFF the kbd
    6. Click "Continue"
    7. Power on the kbd as described in 4.
    8. Kbd gets paired, enter the digit code and Enter
    9. Go to system prefs, Bluetooth and add the kbd as a favorite
    That did it for me. Hope it works for you, too.

  • Z1 Compact won't pair with SmartWatch 2...??

    I just upgraded from an Xperia V to the Z1 Compact.
    My SW2 used to work 100% with my Xperia V - now it won't pair with my Z1 Compact....
    I keep getting a 'Read error - Try again' message.
    When I go into Bluetooth, the SW2 is there and paired, but it doesn't work and the SW2 doesn't show as connected in the notification bar - and I can't change anything in the Smart Connect settings.
    Even when I get a message 'Smartwatch 2 Connected', it doesn't work.
    HELP PLEASE!
    I have an Xperia V, Z1 Compact, SW2 and Tablet S - I'm about to chuck all these devices out and change to Apple - tired of struggling with Sony devices!!

    Before it can pair with a new device you need to perform a reset on the watch - So on your watch open Settings then at the bottom select Reset SmartWatch - then try and pair
    This is because the Watch still thinks your other phone is the Main device and won't allow changes to be made
