Unable to switch quickly between bluetooth and handheld

This seems like a basic question/function, and it may be something that should happen automatically, but...
I love using my Bluetooth.  But, if I have turned "off" (basically closed the bluetooth) so that it is not receiving a signal anymore, and my phone rings, I cannot answer the phone without having to reactivate the bluetooth and using it to answer.
Seems to me there should be a quick option, or the Droid Razr Maxx should have a setting where it recognizes whether or not my Bluetooth is functioning and allows me to simply answer the phone "normally"
Would appreciate any advice on this.  It's a little annoying to realize that I have a "hands free" function, but that I need to keep that "hands free" gadget within "hands reach" in case the phone rings!

Thank you for your help -- I am still having problems here!!
When my bluetooth device is Paired but not connected --- for example, if I happen to take my cell phone up to bed with me, but do not bring the bluetooth and the bluetooth device is CLOSED  (so it is still paired, but not connected).....
If my cell phone rings --- I CAN answer the phone and I can hear the other person speak, but they cannot hear me speak at all.  My cellphone display DOES not give me the option to select Bluetooth
The 3 buttons at the bottom of the cellphone page
Bluetooth is NOT lit and I CANNOT select it
Mute is lit in white (and I can toggle that on and off green light)
Speaker is lit in white (and I can toggle that on and off green light)
I have unpaired and re-paired the bluetooth, I have powered down and powered up the phone....
I still have the same problem.

    Hi chuck72352,
    after you have sorted your data, you can use the InRange Function. Combined with a "search 1D Array" you'll get the range you really want.

  • How to switch quickly between Pages documents?

    Is there a way to switch quickly, back and forth, between open Pages documents. Similar to the "tabs" function in Safari.

    We can't get that because the User Guides are translated by beings which never used the application.
    They receive an English text and they must translate it in an other language.
    I'm accustomed to that for years and I would be surprised if something changes in this area.
    As far as I know, nobody in Apple France saw the localized iWork '09 before the day it was introduced.
    I was asked to search oddities *_after the delivery_*
    Some oddities available in iWork '08 French version are always here in iWork '09 and I'm not sure that they will be gone when we will get the next version.
    It was the same for AppleWorks which I beta tested two times.
    Tests where made upon the US version and all of us discovered the localized versions when they where delivered. In the Help, every examples of formulas where using the comma as parameters separators when the correct one was the semi-colon.
    For sure, it's ridiculous but it's the way foreign customers are treated by Apple.
    I'm remembering that I edited a resource dedicated to samples of functions.
    With the edited resource, Swiss users where able to use the "insert functions" feature with the separator matching their system settings.
    The problem is the same with iWork.
    The delivered French version inserts functions with semi-colons between parameters, even is the user setting is "Swiss French" which use the decimal period and require the comma as separator.
    Same behavior with Deutsch and Italian.
    But not is completely bad.
    I never succeed when I requested correct treatment of "curly quotes" in AppleWorks.
    For info, the correct structure is *_« caractères chevrons »_* (the first space and the last one are required, at least for French of France).
    I started to request them when I start using iWork '06.
    They wheren't introduced by the different updaters but, hosannah, they are available in iWork '08.
    In fact, we got only the quotes, not the required spaces.
    So I requested again the spaces.
    They wheren't introduced by the different updaters but, hosannah, they are available in iWork '09.
    I remember that I wrote to Apple that I was surprised to see that their staff of engineers appeared to be less efficient than the single developer which was delivering Bean.

  • How to switch progamatically between line and symbol plot ?

    I am trying to switch between symbol and line plot (XY-graph) programatically. (I know jow to do it on the front panel.) I thought I could do it through property nodes, but there is no PlotType property node, only PointType, LineType, and LineWidth. If I set LineWidth and LineStyle to zero I get a continous line connecting my symbols. If I set LineWidth to zero and LineStyle to 1, althoug, the Legend shows only symbols I get a dashed line connecting the symbols. Also, is somewhere a desciption what the LineType and PointType codes mean?
    Thanks,
    George

    When you right click on a plot legend and select 'Common Plots', there are several plot properties that get changed. There is no single property to change between the different option. I would recomend that you place a property node on you block diagram and select Plot.Point Style, Plot.Line Style,Plot.Line Width, Plot.Plot Interpolation, and Plot.Plot Fill To and create indicators for each. Then manually change the Common PLots setting and take note of the diffferences. There is help for each of the properties and the help will refer you to the front panel menu options. For example, the help for Point Sytle says that the values are 0-16 as shown on the menu from top-left to bottom-right.

  • While listening to music in my car, I don't have the option to choose between bluetooth and headphones anymore. Why?

    On IOS 6 and earlyer, I use to be able to choose between the bluetooth or the headphone jack. Now, I can only play music true my bluetooth and I can't pause the music. Anybody has a solution?

    Basic Troubleshooting Steps when all else fails
    - Quit the App by opening multi-tasking bar, and swiping the App upward to make it disappear.  (For iOS 6, holding down the icon for the App for about 3-5 seconds, and then tap the red circle with the white minus sign.)
    - Relaunch the App and try again.
    - Restart the device. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
    - Reset the device. (Same article as above.)
    - Restore from backup. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766 (If you don't have a backup, make one now, then skip to the next step.)
    - Restore as new device. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137  For this step, do not re-download ANYTHING, and do not sign into your Apple ID.
    - Test the issue after each step.  If the last one does not resolve the issue, it is likely a hardware problem.

  • Switch Service Between Bionic and Original Droid

    I am transitioning from my original Droid to a Bionic.  However, I would like to continue using my original Droid at work.  (I've killed the camera in the original for work, and would prefer not to do the same with the new Bionic).  I was expecting to be able use *228 to switch the service between the two phones, but I now understand that *228 does not work with the 4G Sim Card.  Is there still a way to switch my number back and forth between the two phones?

    Hi Fool68,
    I see the reason why you want to switch devices, since you have limitations on using the camera while at work. Thank you to the community for your responses. 
    With a 4G phone, once the line is switched to a 3G device, the SIM card does have to be replaced in many cases. Changing devices from 4G to 3G is different, as the community mentioned. Below is some additional information. 
    original 4G SIM can be re-used with the same phone number if the technology change back to 4G is processed prior to 12:00 a.m. ET of the day the 3G change was initially completed.
    After 12:00 a.m. ET, a new 4G SIM is required in order for the line to go back to 4G.  
    SIM cards can be obtained online, if needed. There is no charge for a SIM replacement. To order online, please make the change of the devices online and visit http://www.vzw.com  . Login to your online My Verizon Account (with the Account Holder Number). 
    If a replacement card is needed, you will receive this option in the screen when making the change in devices and there is no cost. 
    I hope this information is helpful. Have a good day!

  • After installing lion, my computer switches constantly between dashboard and current screen

    I installed lion this morning and my screen switches rapidly between the dashboard and current screen, initially i thought it was my mouse, but after changing mouse I still get this issue and when my computer has been out of use for a while, i have to "erase" the screen to get to my login, any ideas?

    After restarting your computer, try booting into the "recovery HD" by holding down Option at startup and try re-installing Lion. I had the Same problem when I installed Lion but that fixed it.
    Rember: back up your data first through time machine so you can restore to the backup once you get Lion reinstalled.

  • IOS8 bluetooth do not switch properly between Music and Coursera

    I have a 2012 Subaru outback and a 2014 Subaru Impreza. I have the same bluetooth connection problem on both cars.
    My iphone 6 plus is paired so when I start the car, the bluetooth system will start playing the tracks in the Music or Podcast. That have been working great, no hiccups. However, when I switch to Coursera app to listen to the downloaded videos, the speakers would go on mute while the video is playing. If I turn up the volume, that will trigger the audio system to start playing Music again, although the active app is still Coursera. Does anyone know how to fix this?
    I have 2 hours commute each day, and really need to be able to listen to Coursera along the way. Thanks...

    i am having this problem too
    any ideas?

  • How to switch quickly between the native soundcard and USB speakers?

    My computer has two sound devices: one, the native sound card (which I use for my headphones), and an external pair of USB speakers. However, switching between them is a complicated task, mainly because I find almost no programs to do it:
    * GNOME Control Center, Sound section: What currently works for me, but can only be used within GNOME Shell or Cinnamon. It can be used from other sessions, though (for example Spectrwm), but it's very heavyweight to have the whole GNOME desktop solely to switch between sound cards.
    * KMix: Works only within KDE and nowhere else. What's more, to actually do the switch one must open the program, go to the options menu and select the soundcard (unlike GNOME, which is two clicks away from the status bar).
    * Pavucontrol: Kind of works, but only in a per-application basis. That is, I can't tell the system to start all current and future sound streams in X device. What's worse, I must wait until the application is open to actually do the switch.
    * XFCE4 Mixer: Doesn't work from outside XFCE. Even there, switching cards is not possible without literally editing a configuration file each time.
    * Alsamixer and GNOME Alsamixer: Can't switch sound cards at all.
    So, I'm still on the search of a lightweight program that can allow me to do something as simple as switching between my USB speakers and native headphones without much hassle. Is there anything else besides GNOME that can do the trick?

  • Can you switch back between CS5 and CS5.5 with the same project with Premiere??

    Hey all,
    I just got CS5.5 for Mac (Lion) and was wondering if i am able to save a project and open it with CS5 Premiere because I work with one other editor who has CS5. I have tested saving a project in CS5.5 and opening it in CS5 but it says that it needs to convert first but then it seems to work fine. So basically, is there workflow good between the 2? Any known issues or anything else i should know about when switching back and forth?
    Also, I have the student edition of CS5.5 and was wondering how many times can I install it? I plan on buying a new computer in a few months from now but currently have 2 and was wondering if i should install it on both my current computers and then deactivate one and install it on my new computer in the future? Or is there a limit and that will not work?
    Thanks!!

    Because it has to create a new "version" of your project every time you go back and forth, you'll end up with umpteen versions if you go back and forth every time which could become a nightmare for you... And because it creates new "versions" every time, you're far more likely to end up with a corrupted file at some point... I'd stay away of going back and forth between versions...
    As an aside, does anyone know if you can go back and forth between the same version (CS5.5) on different platforms (Mac/PC)? I may need to start doing that soon at work, and I've never tried...

  • View Selector - Switch issue between Graph and Table Data

    Hi:
    We have created the report with both Table view and Chart View. Both of them has been added to the View Selector and added to the Dashboard. While performing the testing we found that sometimes the Switch between the views are not happening. Meaning when we try to switch from Chart View to Table View, the View changes in the drop down but the original Graph to table will not switch. In order to make that happen we need to try 3 or 4 times across the drop downs from Table to Chart and then chart to table.
    Did any one face the similar issue. Any suggestions or insights on this.
    Please help.
    Thanks & Regards
    Sunil Kumar T.S.

    hey there RAM,
    here are a few tips...
    1. what is the table field with the right value? and is this table field in the *itm extractor?
    2. can you include this field into the extractor?
    3. could it be a calculated value?
    hope this helps.

  • Satellite P10 switching randomly between Battery and AC

    I have a satellite P10 that's been having some strange power issues for about a year now.
    My laptop will switch over to battery power even when plugged in. I will then either use the computer until the battery drains and have it shut down or hibernate before the battery will charge.
    I thought I had fixed it by downloading and installing a new Bios from the toshiba website, which seemed to work for a while but now it the problem seems to have returned.
    I have also bought a new battery and power bar, thinking this was the problem...but this did not solve the problem.
    Anyone else out there with similar problems or a method of fixing this?
    any thoughts would be great.

    Hi Greg,
    I suffered this phenomenon on my SA30-141, and by trial and error I found it to be a poor contact between the AC socket on the notebook and the AC plug on the adapter cable. Using the technique that Dennis described I tried waggling the power plug when it was connected and found that I could induce the notebook to switch to battery power following which it would not return to AC power without a complete re-boot.
    I resolved this problem by anchoring the AC cable to the back of the notebook with a small strip of plastic wrapped around the cable and then clamped to one of the nuts on the back panel of the notebook with a spare bolt. This stopped any lateral movement of the AC plug when it was connected even if the notebook was moved about.
    regards,

  • Unable to Merge Contacts between iPhone4 and Outlook

    I am using Outlook 2007. I typically update contact information on my iPhone since it's always with me. I did this with my iPhone 3GS and did not notice any problems syncing. I cleaned up my address book, removing any duplicates, in Outlook. Not sure if it's the iPhone4 or version of itunes, but when I sync my contacts I'm not given the option to "merge" data. The sync seems to respond in one of two ways. 1) Overwriting my updated contact information on the iPhone4.
    So I lose my new contact info.
    2) Creating a new (duplicate)contact instead of updating the
    existing contact information in Outlook.
    Can someone tell me if my settings are wrong? Itunes only gives you the option of "replace information on device" or "replace information on computer".
    Please advise. You help is appreciated.

    When syncing iPhone contacts with a supported address book application on your computer the first time - if your iPhone already includes at least one contact and the same with the supported address book application on your computer, you are provided a merge prompt with the first sync for this data. After the initial merge in this situation, the sync process for this data should be a bidirectional or true sync process between your iPhone contacts and the supported address book application on your computer. There won't be another merge prompt and there shouldn't need to be.
    iTunes give one option in this regard - replace contacts on your iPhone with what is available in the supported address book application on your computer. After doing this, the sync process between the two should be a bidirectional or true sync process.
    Try resetting the sync history on your computer, which is done via iTunes preferences under the Devices tab.
