Transferring specific contacts by Bluetooth to my car.

I have phonebooks for both my car and home portable phones. The only way it will do it is if I transfer the contacts in bulk. I don't need to do but a handful of contacts to my home phone and my car. How do I go about transfering selected contacts via Bluetooth?

" When I got home to trouble shoot I found that the songs on my computer played fine and the songs on my iphone worked fine ."
You said that the songs work well on other devices .. Then
Probably the fault in : ALPINE stereo system circa 2006

How do I transfer iPhone contacts via Bluetooth to my car

I just bought a Mercedes-Benz GLK 350 and I cannot figure out how to transfer my Verizon iPhone contacts to the MB console via Bluetooth vCard upload. Having trouble fidning a resource that can enlighten me on this.

The iPhone 4 does not support the OPP profile that is required for Bluetooth contact transfer. So your out of luck using conventional methods.
Who knows? Maybe iOS 5 will allow this... I know that they have improved bluetooth support, however I don't know if that includes OPP.

HT204387 Does anyone know how to transfer a contact from an iPhone 5 via bluetooth to a car stereo?

Does anyone know how to transfer a contact from an iPhone 5 via bluetooth to a car stereo?

Your stereo must support PBAP(Phone Book Access Profile).

IPhone ios 5 still won't send vCard contacts via bluetooth to car system

I have an iPhone 3GS and am running iOS 5.0.1. I have a 2011 Toyota Camry with built-in bluetooth. I see a lot of posts from people talking about the fact that the iPhone can't send vCard name/phone number contact information to a car bluetooth system. Sending via MMS or e-mail is not an option to a car system like this. The car bluetooth system gets put into a mode where it waits for the information from the phone. But there is no option in iOS to send vCards via bluetooth. This capability is something my wife's free Samsung Solstice phone can do, but my "smartphone" / iPhone cannot. Every number I call from the iPhone, therefore, shows as calling "no name" as I can't get basic contact names/numbers sent to the car's system. This is not a far fetched feature and many phones (free ones at that) can do this. When will users be able to get this basic feature? All I need is send vCard contacts via bluetooth...As I said, sending via MMS or e-mail doesn't work for a car. I shouldn't need some app to do this either. It should be another transport feature on the vCard export from iOS.
Thanks,
Michael

In order to get contacts onto your in car system, it will need to support the PBAP bluetooth profile (Phone Book Access Protocol). If it does, contacts will transfer automatically on connection. You can not transfer contacts the way you're trying to.
Contact Toyota and see if there is an update available for your system.

Need help 2 get my new BB to receive my contacts via bluetooth from od phone!

Hi guys, I just got a lovely BB Curve today and have spent the last 4 hours trying in vain to get it receive my contacts list via bluetooth from my old phone. I have paired them up and can send to my old phone but cannot receive to my BB. My old phone attempts to connect and then it comes up with a connection failed message. I have tried all sorts: making sure phones are visibile, setting them to 2 mins ....then changing it to "yes" ...making sure devices trust connection and then asking for a prompt....taking the encryption off...then leaving it on....
I really am at my wits end as I have over 150 contacts and cannot face having to write them all out and manually type them in
I am also terrified of getting into my new car tomorrow and finding out that my BB won't pair to my in-car bluetooth set up!
Thanks!

Not sure you can send/receive contacts via BLUETOOTH. Once the two devises are paired, then your done with the 2 minute limit and all that stuff. If each devise sees the name of the other devise, your done there. Then make sure there "connected" to each other. If not select the devise, press menu and select connect. Once that's done, your connected. Your car set-up should be just as simple. The setting about phone book entries, is for a bluetooth devise (headset, your car... things you make calls from and talk through) to have 'access' to your phone book to easily make phone calls. It doesn't copy or transfer your phone book, just has access. If your old phone has an option to "send contact via bluetooth" you'll probably have to do that for each contact and even then, I don't know that Blackberry will take it. Blackberry will however take v-cards. So if your old phone can e-mail a v-card, that would work. Blackberry can also synchronize with desktop applications like microsoft outlook and ever google mail. That way you'll have all your contacts from these locations as well. If your old phone can sync with these applications, that's another way to complete this task. This is done through your Blackberry Desktop Manager which also has a sync with other devises' so if your old phone has the ability to connect to a computer, you could try that. Many mobile phone carriers have software in their stores that help with this process and might be able to do this for you without charge.

transferring my contacts to my phone from my computer saved as vcard, what program do i use, i have the apple 3gs. I used Icloud and clicked on import in contact there a message came back with an error

Hello Tehuti2,
There are a few ways to transfer contacts from your computer to your iPhone. I found an article that provides steps on how to import a vCard to iCloud.com:
iCloud: Import a vCard
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH3605
If your PC fits the following specifications, you can setup iCloud to automatically sync contacts with your iPhone:
Microsoft Windows 7 or 8
iCloud Control Panel 2.1.2 or later
iTunes 11 or later (for iTunes in the Cloud and iTunes Match)
Outlook 2007 or 2010 or iCloud.com
Safari 5.1.7 or later or Internet Explorer 9 or later (for iCloud.com and Bookmarks), Firefox 16 or later or Chrome 23 or later (for iCloud.com)

Bluetooth FM transmitter car kit with N73me

Hi,
I have a Bluetooth FM transmitter car kit for my N73me, everything works great...except the below issue, pls let me know if any settings needs to be changed in my N73
issue: I am able to transfer music thru Bluetooth (to my car stereo using FM), problem is when I get a incoming calls while the music is playing the car kit is not picking up the call...instead I get the call in my cell phone. (if i don't play music everything works gr8)
I contacted the car kit support guys and they say..n73 doesn't support A2DP profile...is it true? I have 4.0727.2.2.1 software in my n73ME

I've tested, VW, AUDI, SEAT, SKODA, PARROT,KUFATEC and have not been able to transfert my phone book at all..
I'm still hoping the Rsap profile will be added one day, my phone is useless on any car kit, no Rsap and no phonebook in HFP mode!!

Z30 Bluetooth issue with car handsfree since update to 10.3.1.1784

Hi,
I am having a lot of problems getting my Z30 to work properly with my car's bluetooth system (BMW E46 - built 03/2004) since upgrading to this OS version. The Bluetooth system is factory installed (not 3rd party). I had a read through these forums and found some people who also had B/T issues in their vehicles, but I couldn't see what the fixes were (if one exists, feel free to point me in the right direction or send me the URL). The interesting thing is that my phone WAS working just fine until I updated to this OS version - now I cannot see my phone's Address Book on the in-car screen anymore (when I select "DIRECTORY" or "SPEED DIAL", it just displays a message "PLEASE WAIT" and does nothing).I also have issues making calls (the car isn't able to make the phone dial out). It gives the indication that it is, but when I look at the phone itself, the screen shows no activity. I have tried to Unpair and re-Pair, but no difference in behaviour.The pairing process itself works fine, and the phone asks me whether to share my contacts, etc with the in-car Bluetooth system - but even if I select "YES", it doesn't make a difference. Anyone know a fix? Any help is greatly appreciated!

Just wondering if anyone from Blackberry is monitoring these forums, as my problem still hasn't been resolved. I recently checked for a software update (hoping there would be one available), but my device tells me that I have the latest software.

Can anyone confirm their bluetooth connection to car works fine?

I am having issues with incoming calls not displaying the phone number or contact name on my car's display. Can anyone confirm that your S4 is able to "push" this incoming call information to your car's display over bluetooth? Thanks!

Here is my story so far:
I properly synced my new S4 to my car (2012 Prius Gen III - Package IV) and refreshed my phone book. All contacts are shown on my car's display. Out going calls work fine and I can use voice command to dial by name and all the proper details and picture of my contact show up on the screen for outgoing calls. However, if I receive an incoming call from the same exact contact, it shows up with this message "incoming call from unknown". If I later go into my call history, it shows that call with the proper phone number so I know my car is able to match the phone number with the contact. I think the issue must relate to the S4 not properly pushing the phone number or caller id to my car when it gets a new incoming call.
Here is the strange part, my old phone (Droid X) had no problems syncing with my car and both incoming and outgoing calls would show the proper contact person on the display screen.
I just synced my wife's iphone 5 to the car and both outgoing and incoming calls are displayed just fine.
I just synced my co-workers Droid Razor (4.1.2) and that works fine.
Based on this, my assumption is there is a problem syncing with Galaxy S4 and/or perhaps the bluetooth version with 4.2.2.
Thanks for any help.

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 family put multiple devices on the icloud, and I need to know how to manage duplicate entries. Specifically contacts. If I fix the contact list on my pc will it push the info out to the other devices and maintain it correctly?

All devices signed into the same iCloud account will finish up with the same contacts. Of course if prior to joining iCloud two family members each had an entry for Uncle Fred, then you will finish up with two contact cards for Uncle Fred, and so on. If you tidy this up on your computer then the changes will propagate to everyone else.

My Droid Razor HD updated yesterday. Now it will no longer connect to the bluetooth in my car

Yesterday I accepted the update for my Droid Razor HD. Now it will not connect to the Bluetooth in my car (worked for the previous 8 months).

Christin - Generally your pairings will still be in a list under BT on your phone. Unless of course, you performed a Factory Data Reset on the phone.
Your car's radio should have a reset capability. The front panel on my SONY comes off, and there's a reset button there. Do you have documentation that came with the car for the radio, or if an aftermarket radio, for the radio itself? If not, there is generally information on the web that you can Google to find the reset procedure.
HTH.

Iphone 3gs with ios5 update. bluetooth connection with car problem.

I updated my iphone 3GS to IOS5. After the update, the bluetooth (handsfree) connection to my car (Lexus RX350) does not work anymore. I can connect any other cell phone bluetooth to my car. Only iphone after the IOS5 update is failing. Any suggestions (I reset many times)?

Some people havent had one problem when updating to iOS4, others have been over run with problems. I myself have lost virtually all sound from my loud speaker so calls, txt messages and ipod are virtually unheard now..
Went to my local Genius bar in Liverpool today, complete waste of time, the guy restored it like I hadnt already done that a 100 times, then said oh yeah it is qeit not heard of that one before, to get a new one will cost you £139!!
Yeah right mate, not payin that as its not my fault! did ask him if he ever looks on the Apple forum about faults people are having, and I got a blank look. Told him a thread with tens of thousands people all having the same problem with low sound from the speakers and calls being ended in mid conversation since updating to OS4 seems a bit strange then... another blank look!
Ive lost all faith with apple as a company now and will not be upgrading to a iPhone 4 anytime soon or any apple product, no one seems interested in helping but quick enough to take your money, thats my opinion anyway..
