Sony BM10 will not pair

I have a Sony BM10 that pairs instantly to my iPhone 4 and 4S but the macbook air and iPad 2 do not even recognise it as a bluetooth device in the list. Help

Hi ApplePasswordHell,
If you are having an issue with pairing a Bluetooth device with your MacBook Air or your iPad, I would suggest that you troubleshoot using the steps in this article -

    I have a Sony radio in my car.   With IOS  4 on my IPhone I could use the docking plug to the usb input on the radio and stream ESPN radio or pandora to the radio.  After upgrading to IOS 5 on the phone the Sony radio will not recognize the phone .  Any thoughts.

    I am reading on this site about the error I am getting and it wants me to change some files that I am not comfortable messing with. Mainly because it is like a foreign language. Will the store do this for me or tell me if it is neccessary?

  • My bluetooth keyboard (Macnus 3.0) is recognised by my iMac but will  not pair?  I have paired it with my iPad using code 8310 but it still will not pair with my iMac.  Can someone help please?

    My bluetooth keyboard (Macnus brand - bought recently in Thailand)(similar to Mac small keyboard) will pair with my iPad using code 8310,and is recognized by my iMac but will not pair?
    There are very scant instructions with the keyboard and no mention of any code (the code was prompted by my iPad).
    I have followed the instructions but it still will not pair with my iMac!
    Can anyone help please?
    My iMac is 20 inch  Mid 2007 OSX10.9.1 4GB RAM

    Hi All, thank you for you suggestions.  I have been unable to find any website for the maker, but have looked at several Thai/cambodian sites incl <http://www.buycoms.com/Article/8435/index.asp>  which mentions the keyboard being suitable for tablet or windows.  No mention of iMac!  although the box is branded to indicate Mac compatable.
    I'm thinking that maybe it just will not pair with an iMac.
    Ill keep looking for the maker website, which might come on later in the future? maybe?
    thanks again.

  • 10.6 client will not 'Pair' to 10.5.8 Xserve

    I am running Mac OS X Server 10.5.8 on an Xserve (intel).
    I have setup a brand new user who is running as a Mac OS X 10.6.4 client (new Mac)
    Under the users account settings on the Mac (System Preferences > Accounts), the 'server account' option appears but will not accept the password / will not 'Pair'.
    I have tried the following on the Xserve:
    Delete user
    Change user password
    Check user services
    I have tried the following on the User's Mac:
    server user short name
    server user full name
    retyped password
    upper and lowercase
    The user can connect to the Xserve's shares with no problem in the Finder using the given username and password (the same as their Mac user account), however I would also like them to be able to use the Open Directory services on the server (initially Time Machine).
    Nothing seems to be working. Is this a problem on the Xserve. Is there a trick to make it work?
    I would like to get this working soon as the user is now falling short of their Time Machine backups!

    We have this working without any problems (on a LAN with one subnet). Try add a new account on another machine for that user and log on from there. Also try the converse - add an account that you know works on the client machine that will not connect.

  • Bluetooth will not pair with Moto Droid4

    My Droid4 has will not pair with either my "Verzion" Jabra VBT-4050 nor my Jawbone Icon.  Both these earpieces paired with this phone before, but will not now.
    Makes no sense to me.
    Thanks...Andy

        westa510b,
    That can certainly be confusing since it previously paired just fine with your device. We will be happy to take a closer look at this matter with you. Have you attempted to reboot the device? Tried deleting the bluetooth connection from the device, then re-establishing connection? Any changes recently to the devices software or additions of an application when you first noticed this issue began?

  • Macbook pro will not pair with Vizio sound bar.

    Macbook will not pair with Vizio sound bar. It has paired and worked fine in the past. in the menu bar at the top of the screen it says it is connected but it is not. when I open the bluetooth preferences and try to pair it says pairing failed. any help would be great. thanks.

    Me too. sigh
    All was well until this afternoon, when I swapped out the batteries on my trusty old Microsoft IntelliMouse Explorer for Bluetooth, which has worked flawlessly for me for a few years now. After I put new batteries in, my MBP wouldn't recognize it. I went through the Bluetooth Setup Assistant, and it "saw" the mouse and properly listed it as "Microsoft Mouse". I hit "continue", of course, and the Assistant said "Pairing with your Bluetooth mouse". It got as far as "Connection established" (and I saw the mouse appear in the Bluetooth preference pane", but then I got the dreaded red words: "The pairing attempt was unsuccessful. Make sure your mouse is in range of this computer, turned on and "discoverable." Etc., etc. I made sure of all of those things and tried again, many times, with the same failure every time. I tried different batteries, rebooted the Mac, and so on. No luck.
    Figuring my mouse was dead, I went out and bought a Kensington Slimblade Bluetooth Presenter Mouse, brand new, never been paired with anything. Same problem!
    Also, I can no longer get my Palm Treo 650 to sync via Bluetooth. It used to be a little flaky (often complained that the port was in use by another application), but rebooting the Treo always solved that. Now, it doesn't.
    One trusty old mouse suddenly stops pairing, one brand-new one refuses to pair, smartphone won't sync any more. I haven't installed any system updates or anything else since the Microsoft mouse worked. The only weird thing going on is that I'm having massive network connectivity issues with my broadband connection (probably a flaky cable modem), and a couple of days ago I bought a new Airport Extreme a/b/g/n wireless router, which is at the other end of the house from my computer and now-defunct mice.
    Very bizarre. Can the Bluetooth chip or antenna in a MacBook Pro burn out or otherwise fail?
    Puzzled and frustrated,

  • My Droid2 Global will not pair to My Ford SYNC since the latest software update.  Please help!

    Since the latest update, my Droid2 will not pair to my Ford SYNC.  The phone will not find SYNC for me to place in the PIN.  It use to work wonderful before the latest update.  
    I can not drive and talk on my phone without SYNC.  Corporate Car- Corporate Policy.
    Thanks for your help.

    Hello rosalee2340,
    Thank you for sharing your concern as I am more than happy to assist you! Are you able to successfully pair your Droid 2 with another bluetooth device, like an earpiece or a computer? This will help us determine if there is an issue with the bluetooth technology after the software update or is it a compatibility issue. Also, what year and model vehicle do you have? In order to successfully pair with the vehicle, the Droid 2 must be in discovery mode. Below is a link to walk thru placing the Droid 2 into discovery mode.
    http://support.verizonwireless.com/clc/devices/knowledge_base.html?id=34745
    Once the phone is in discovery mode, the next step would be to attempt to pair with SYNC again. Here is a video link with the steps on how to pair a phone with SYNC.
    http://syncsupport.ford.com/servlet/technology/connect-phone-sync
    If the pairing is unsuccessful then you can contact the dealership for assistance with the pairing process and/or for an updated device compatibility list of phone. Let me know how the steps above works out for you.
    Thank you...

    My sony ereader will not connect to Adobe Digital Editions even though my computer is authorized

    When you register your ereader with SONY, you'll need to make sure that the
    Reader Library entries were created on your hard drive for the ereader to
    work properly.  Only some of them are supported by ADE.  There's a list in
    the HELP section of ADE.
    Also, there have been some problems with the PRS-T1 model.
    Hope this helps!

  • Apple Watch Will Not Pair - "Device Locked" Warning

    My iPhone 5S has had terrible battery life over the last few days and I am trying to troubleshoot what if the issue is the Apple Watch. In order to check, I tried un-pairing the Apple Watch from my phone so I could re-pair the watch and see if it helped. It is important to note that I have an Exchange account which requires a complex passcode. This situation required me to use the "Unlock with iPhone" feature and not a four digit simple passcode.
    Now my phone will not pair with the watch and the watch will not unlock via the phone. I am stuck on the "Device Locked - First put on your Apple Watch, then unlock your iPhone" screen any time I try to do anything.
    Has anyone been able to resolve this issue?

    I had a similar problem (also with work-forced unlock phone to unlock watch). I did a restore of my watch and it seems to be working since (and I was not required to do anything re: the passcode).
    Also, make sure you turn off the "Mirror iPhone" setting for Airplane Mode - so far as I can tell, if you go into Airplane Mode on the watch, you'll never be able to unlock it again without a restore since Bluetooth will be disabled so you can't unlock the watch by unlocking the phone.

  • My iPhone 6 plus will not pair with my macbook air 2014

    My iPhone 6 plus gives a message unsuccessful not supported when I try and pair with my macbook air.
    both are running up to date iOS and OS X.

    An iPhone will not pair via Bluetooth to a computer (Mac or Windows) except for personal hotspot and then only if your cellular plan supports it. https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-7722
    If you are attempting to use Handoff/Continuity, that does involve Bluetooth but the devices are NOT paired; Bluetooth just needs to be on and the devices in range of each other. The following may help with Handoff/Continuity issues: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS5458
