Using Keynote Remote via Bluetooth - iPhone 4S + iPad 2

I have used Keynote remote quick happily on my old 3GS. Now I need to use Keynote remote on my iPhone 4S to control a Keynote presentation on my iPad.
WiFi is not an option, so I need to use Bluetooth.
Both devices are up to date and running iOS6
Activating iPad Bluetooth in settings, devices (eg Macbook, Apple keyboard) other than the iPhone appear on the iPad.
Activating Blutooth in settings on the iPhone discovers nothing. It is as if Bluetooth is not activating. The MacBook can't find the iPhone either.
I have rebooted both devices several times.
I have also tried to activate the pairing within Keynote remote - which just says no connection is available and says both devices must have bluetooth turned on.
So.
Am I being stupid here?
Or has Apple screwed up letting their very expensive and overpriced devices communicate with each other?

Hey I was having trouble with this too. I got it to work for me. I have an iPad 2 and an iPhone 5. The fix for me was simple. Turn off WiFi for both your iPad and your iPhone. Turn on Bluetooth for both your iPad and your iPhone. Then KeyNote > Tools > Advanced > Remote. You don't have to do anything just have your Phone Remote app running and the bluetooh enabled when you hit remote on your iPad. They should find each other.
I've had to do this each time I use this function. There should we a way that you can just choose to use Bluetooth.

HT204378 2 iOS8.1.1 devices can't connect via BT "Using Keynote Remote with Bluetooth" - HT6112

I'm unable to get to iOS devices to connect via Bluetooth for Keynote control. It's described above under the heading "Using Keynote Remote with Bluetooth". Am I missing something? I see the article mentions iOS8 so I know it's been updated recently. I also see that this hasn't worked in the past. Curious that the articles suggests it can be done now.
I have 3 iOS devices all 8.1.1.
iPhone 5
iPhone 5s
iPad 3rd Gen
Thanks,
Russell

Just talked to Bose and learned the solution.
Reset the speaker ....hold down the bluetooth button until you hear a tone. Delete the Bose in the Bluetooth Device directory on the iPad. When it is automatically rediscovered it will connect.
Worked for me .....

E63 updating contents using PC-Suite via Bluetooth...

When updating my E63 contacts, calendar etc. using PC-Suite via Bluetooth, every update asks the phone "Accept connection request from PC?" This doesn't occur when using a cable connection but is a real nuisance when using Bluetooth.
Any way of automatically accepting the connection request?
Thanks,
Norm
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Where this wonderfull place is located? I could not find out yet!
I should say that Nokia is to think more when making manuals on E71 et al/
Thanks ib advance

Are there any apps for iPhone to work with an external GPS receiver paired via Bluetooth?

Using Keynote remotely via a WebConference

Does anyone know of a process in which one can create a Keynote that is presented live in front of an audience, along with being filmed during the presentation and allow remote users to view both the video of the presenter and the live Keynote screens? Very similar to the Apple webcasts of Job's keynotes.
Thanks.

Using Nokia headphones via bluetooth

Hi,
G'day all,
After looking elsewhere in the forum, I created the .asoundrc in /home and asound.conf in /etc file as below:
pcm.btheadset {
type bluetooth
device 00:0D:3C:A6:CC:55
Below is the line in /etc/rc.conf
DAEMONS=(syslog-ng network netfs crond hal cups alsa samba bluetooth fam sshd virtualbox)
The bluetooth applet (sorry I could not cut n paste the screen)
shows the Nokia BH-501 headset and three bars orange, green and blue and says connected.
From the command line:
mplayer -ao alsa:device=btheadset /data/Music/somesong.mp3
plays fine.
edit:I use alsa. Pulse is not installed.
Question is how do I get the sound when I play a song / movie in smplayer or vlc ?
regards

thnx ngoone.
Oh no particular reason for not using pulse. Just things are working fine (without bluetooth for smplayer, vlc etc) so far.
Any pointers to use pulseaudio and bluetooth headsets ?
Well, assuming your pulseaudio is working fine, the 'pointers' are just:-
1. Pair with device using bluez.
2. Move your stream to the bluetooth headset in pavucontrol (you may need to select A2DP in the Configuration if your headset supports it, not all do).

You need to choose the btheadset device. If the app doesn't support that you may need to make it default.
In the preferences of both programs (smplayer and vlc) I could not find <btheadset>
cheers
Then try setting btheadset as default in your .asoundrc. Not all programs support non-commandline (or even CLI) selection of alsa plugins.

Can't use Keynote Remote Because of iPhone 5's Bluetooth

I use Keynote Remote with my iPhone 5 to MacBook Air. WiFi works well but Bluetooth doesn't work at all. How to solve this problem.
P.S.
iPhone 5 - iOS 6.0.2
MacBook Air - OS X v.10.8.2

Here's Apple's instructions:
Using Keynote Remote with Bluetooth
When a Wi-Fi connection is unavailable you can use Keynote Remote with Bluetooth to control your Keynote slideshow from one iOS device to another (iPad, iPhone, iPod touch). However, slides may take longer to appear on Keynote Remote when connected via Bluetooth. You cannot use Keynote Remote via Bluetooth with a Mac. The following steps use Keynote Remote on an iPhone to control a Keynote presentation on an iPad via Bluetooth.
iPhone: Go to Settings > General > Bluetooth and turn Bluetooth ON.
iPad: Go to Settings > General > Bluetooth and turn Bluetooth ON.
iPad: Open a Keynote presentation.
iPhone: Open the Keynote Remote app. If you have previously paired your iPhone or iPad, you can immediately begin to control your slideshow from your iPhone by tapping Play Slideshow. If this is the first time pairing with these iOS devices, refer to the steps in "Linking Keynote Remote to Another iOS Device," above.
Note: If your iPhone displays the message "No connection available. Both devices must be connected to a Wi-Fi network or have Bluetooth turned on," continue with the steps above because you may still be able to use Keynote Remote with Bluetooth

Cannot play slideshow using Keynote Remote on iPhone

I have purchased Keynote Remote and installed on iPhone 3GS (v3.1.2), the app connects to MacBook Pro no problem, however I cannot 'Play Slideshow' - Just get the screen 'Could not play slideshow. Make sure a slideshow is playing on your computer.' But still doesn't run, even when I have KeyNote running on MacBook and a SlideShow open as required.
Have tried rebooting both devices, I have also removed the App from the iPhone, deleted it from MacBook and then downloaded and installed it again...
Any ideas please...

How do I connect Keynote Remote via Blue Tooth NOT a WiFi network

Being a novice, at best, "What are the "steps" to connect Keynote Remote, via BlueTooth MacBook Pro and I-Pad

Thank you for the reply.
ctrl B makes the top bar (File. Edit. View. Controls. Store. Help.) appear and disappear.
ctrl S makes a side bar appear on the left side of iTunes. It shows the library which has Music. Movies. TV Shows. Apps. Playlists. Ect.
When I did the steps you suggested, my iPhone did not show up in that list.
I checked my firewall settings again, and they seem to be okay. My firewall is the only thing that I am not 100% sure of. If I go to Control Pannel>System and Security>Windows Firewall>Allow an app through Windows Firewall. It shows that iTunes is allowed. I'm not sure if something else might need to be allowed as well though. I have a few Remote options that are not allowed such as, Remote Event Log Management, Remote Scheduled Tasks Management, Remote Shutdown, Remote Volume Management, and Routing and Remote Access. I'm not sure if any of these need to be allowed or not, or if they are even affiliated with iTunes.

Can't pair bluetooth for using Keynote remote

I can't get my iPhone 5s to use the Keynote remote app with bluetooth. The bluetooth hotspot works fine so I know my MBP can connect to the phone via bluetooth, and the Keynote app works great with wifi, but can't get it to work with bluetooth. I assume that I cannot use the hotspot and connect to the Keynote remote app via bluetooth at the same time. (When I have hotspot activated, the Keynote remote app doesn't work at all--screen appears frozen.) So I turned off hotspot and then try to pair via bluetooth. When I browse devices with bluetooth, the phone appears and I click on pair. I then get a message on my phone to confirm. I click OK and then it shows on my MBP that it is paired for about 1 second and then it disconnects and I get a message on my phone that the device is not supported. I am using the latest of everything, iOS 7, Mavericks, iPhone 5s and a one year-old MBP. So how can this not be supported?

Here is the link you are looking for:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3325?viewlocale=en_US
You might also try turning off wifi on both devices when using Bluetooth. They may be stepping on each other.
There is also a limited distance over which Bluetooth will work. I work my setup of equipment so that I can keep my iPad and iTouch within about 10 feet of each other.
Hope this helps.

Remote use of iTunes via Airport

What's the best way to play music stored in iTunes from the location where my stereo is? As the two systems are on different floors, I would like to access iTunes from where my stereo is (i.e. select songs, playlists, internet radio etc.). Is anybody aware of a device that allows me to do this in an elegant way via the AirPort Extreme?

If you plug your Airport Extreme into your stereo, then all you need is something to control iTunes remotely. The Keyspan Remote will work, but that requires line-of-sight and you won't get any feedback to allow you to browse your library.
I use a Palm T3 (bluetooth enabled) PDA with Salling Clicker software. If you have a Bluetooth mobile phone that will work too. All you will then need is a Bluetooth module for the Mac that has iTunes on it.
BTW Salling Clicker cannot change or select the speakers that iTunes feeds the audio to. You need to select this manually.

How to use keynote remote w/ iPad and iPhone using Bluetooth

Using IOS 7.0.6 on iPad and iPhone can't get a connection via Bluetooth to use iPhone as a remote to control keynote on iPad. Bluetooth is on, remote is enabled in keynote on both devices but that is as far as I get. I'm looking for some instructions for what seems to be a simple process. Searched all over and only find outdated instructions or instructions that appear incomplete. I don't think my Wi-Fi connection at work will allow this type of connection that's why I want to use Bluetooth. I can't get the 2 devices to do this on my home Wi-Fi either. Using the latest update to keynote. iPad is work issued and not sure if it is iPad or iPad 2 but I don't think this would make a difference. Any help would be much appreciated. Very frustrated at this point.
Thank you,
Carl

Hey, I had some issues but I finally figured it out thanks to this article: http://www.cnet.com/how-to/how-to-use-keynote-to-control-keynote-on-ios-mac/
Basically, you find the remote (let's say your iPhone) while your iPad has a presentation active then go to Presentation Tools on said iPad and link your iPhone. Your iPhone has to be searching for a device after you tap "Add Device."

IPhone 5s with hearing aids via Bluetooth. Need to use the phone for voice, what's the best distance that the mic will pick up your voice

I wear hearing aids that are made for Apple, the audio will go into the hearing aids via Bluetooth. I'll need to use my phone for voice only.. I drive for work and have a wok oh one too and both are synced to a bluetooh headset (LG). I'm trying to figure out how to talk on both phones ( use speakerphone on work phone?) without using a bluretooh headset. I don't know the range of the microphone on the IPHON, thinking about hanging it around my neck or put the phone into a stand/holder on the dash and use the speakerphone feature. Looking for ideas to make this simple

You can't do anything with that problem.
Take your iPhone to the closest Apple Store and they will give you new one for 200€/$ or if you bought your iPhone in less than 12 months you will get it for free.
