Why does Apple Bluetooth not work? iPad iPhone and iMac

Quick post, Bluetooth won't work on my new ipad air, trying to connect to sound bar, works on all other non apple devices!?
Have iMac, ipad 2, ipad air and iPhone, non of the apple devices have ever worked properly when trying to use Bluetooth?
Can someone help, already tried apples troubleshooting, no joy!
Apple seriously get on this, your products are way too expensive for basic features not to be working!?

There are various issues, both accessing this forum using iDevices as well as even on the PC/Mac side. The issues seems to be the fault of the forum software itself (Jive software) so there's not much that can be done about it other than wait for fixes (which we've been doing for quite awhile now).

Closing windows in Expose using key press (or why does apple-W not work?)

I often end up with lots of Safari windows open & need to prune them down. (Yes I use tabbed browsing too .
So I thought I'd use Expose, see the windows I needed to close, select the one I wanted to close and hit apple-W which works fine to close a window when not in Expose. However for me it doesn't work in expose (though its fine when not in expose).
This leads to a rather slow process of going into expose, selecting the window you want to close, coming out of expose, then hitting apple-W to close that window, then going back to expose.
I'd much rather just go into expose, hover over the window I want to close (or use cursor keys to pick the right one) and hit apple-W; then I can close a few windows without having to leave expose.
Has anyone ever figured out a way to get apple-W - or any key press at all - to close the currently selected window in expose?
BTW I know you can quit an application in Expose; which is great. However in this case I want to close just a selected window in expose (e.g. a particular safari window), not the whole application.

You have a great idea. But it isn't supported. Yet.
Send your idea to Apple (they read all submissions) http://www.apple.com/macosx/feedback

Why does the alarm not work when the iphone 4 is turned off

why does the alarm not work when the iphone 4 for is turned off works fine when on most other phones work when off

The only phone I've ever had that would turn on and sound the alarm is a Blackberry. So, I'd hardly say "most phones" have this function.

Why does apple tv not support amazon prime?

why does apple tv not support amazon prime?

If you have an iPhone/iPad it may be possibel to 'Airplay' from teh Amazon Prime app on the device - no Amazon Prime in UK so I can't confirm it works. Check reviews of the app in iTunes. Airplay is not something I like much as you have to have another device to work with the AppleTV.
As to why there is no native support for Amazon Prime on the AppleTV itself, we could ask the same for any number of services, but:
1 - Apple/Amazon are competitors to some extent so they may not want to
2 - It may simply not feature in Apple's plans for the device
3 - Rights owners may not allow Apple/Aamzon to collaborate
.....and dozens more possible reasons I suspect, none of which really make sense to you an I as a consumer...

goodnight. as you know apple has evolved considerably until today but there are people who do not have ability to buy new products. in my case I would like to know why the apple do not let the iphone 3g update to iOS 4.3 as are several applications that can not put on my iphone 3g due to this reason. Why does not Apple make a repository with applications for ios 4.2.1? or else do not work in an update to ios 4.3 on iphone 3g?

This has nothing to do with Apple, as Apple does not make the apps.
This is the decision of the app maker.
Contact those app makers and ask them why they do this.

This has never been a feature of iphone/ipod/ipad.
Bluetooth is supported for handsfree telephone, stereo speakers/headsets, some keyboards, some apps, tethering if provided by the carrier.
File transfer has never been a feature.

Why does my imessage not work with only 1 phone number

Why does my imessage not work with only 1 phone number? It keeps going to imessage and then back to text message

Both you and the recipient have to have active data connections, and both devices have to have iOS 5 or higher to be able to use iMessage. Also, they both have to have iMessage activated. If that is already the case, there is a possiblility that iMessage is down. It has gone up and down several times in the past week. Check this page for status, and if necessary you can report a problem with a link in the lower right corner. http://www.apple.com/support/icloud/systemstatus/

Why does photo stream not work on 4g

Hi, I have a iPhone and a Mac and an iCloud account, but why does photo stream not work on 4g, but as soon as I connect to wifi, it send photos to photo stream, can please tell why it does not send photos to photo stream when on 4g, thanks.

The data requirements for sending potentially many photos can be too taxing/costly on a carrier's data plan.

Why does adobe flash not work in my firefox. i have down loaded it several times. it will work in explorer and chrome.

why does adobe flash not work in my firefox. i have down loaded it several times. it will work in explorer and chrome.

IE uses a different version of Flash than other browsers use. You need to install the Plugin version of Flash for Firefox.
1.Download the Flash setup file from here: 
[http://fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player.exe Adobe Flash - Plugin version]. 
Save it to your Desktop. 
2. Close Firefox using File > Exit 
then check the Task Manager > Processes tab to make sure '''firefox.exe''' is closed, 
{XP: Ctrl+Alt+Del, Vista: Shift+Ctrl+ESC = Processes tab}
3. Then run the Flash setup file from your Desktop.

Why does flash player not work with facebook?

Why does flash player not work with fcebook? Whenever I wish to view a video, I get the message that i need to upgrade my flash player. Then no matter how often I download and install flash player I still get the message that I need to upgrade my flash player. When I go check which version I have, I always get the message that I have the most current one. I run Mozilla Firefox with Windows. I don't know anything else.

This means you don't have the latest version installed. Update to 11.9.900.117, and Firefox will allow it: Flash Player Plug-in (All other browsers)

Why Does Dynamic Link Not Work

I purchased the CS5 Adobe Production Premium. I have been working in Premiere and I have been learning about how to use Dynamic Link. I want to be able to alter clips in After Effects and bring them back and forth into Premiere. When I go to File/ Adobe Dynamic Link/New After Effect Composition, I get this message:
Adobe Dynamic Link Requires Adobe Production Premium.
Since I own production premium, I do not know why I am getting this message. I have reinstalled the CS5 Production Premium Software twice and it still gives me the same message. What can I do to get Dynamic Link Working.

Thank you for the tip. Could you possibly tell me how to deactivate and
then reactivate the suite. I am using a Macbook Pro laptop running OS
10.6.4. I do not even know where to start.

Deactivate the software (not uninstall), and then reactivate the suite.
This often fixes this. You can opt to leave the serial number on the
system; no need to clear it and re-enter it.
