Why does my iPhone 4 Bluetooth just keeps saying "Searching" but won't show devices.

When I go to my bluetooth settings, it says it's in discoverable mode & just keeps searching and not popping up any devices. I have iOS 7.0.2. I'm trying to connect my bluetooth headphones.

I even tried to use bluetooth connection on both my parents' iphones, it just keeps saying "searching".

  • Why does my iphone and ipad keep saying apple ID disabled but i can log in to the itunes store on my laptop?

    i can't download or update free apps on my ipad or iphone. i can log in to my i-store account on my laptop and download stuff.  when i try on the iphone or ipad i keep getting apple ID disabled message. i had to enter in my account and new password to get to this community site so the password is working. but when i enter the updated password on the iphone or ipad i keep getting...apple ID disabled.  thanks

    When you try to update the app, is the Apple ID that comes up the same as the Apple ID in Settings>iTunes & App Store?
    Have you tried any troubleshooting steps? e.g. log in on another device, reset password etc.

  • Why does my iPhone 4s 64 gb says it has 57 gb ??

    why does my iPhone 4s 64 gb says it has 57 gb ??

    Formatting mostly but is more down to the misalignment of terminology Mb/Gb and MB/GB
    64Gb roughly 59.6GB
    64 x (1000/1024)x(1000/1024)x(1000/1024)
    So 4Gb is around 3.72GB
    250Gb is about 232GB
    1Tb is roughly 931GB
    or something like that
    But the formatting will be proportional to size too as it kind of stores directions to where the data is
    AND of course because of the iOS (operational system that the device has installed on it)

  • HT1632 My ipod seems to be stuck in a "Loop" as my nike+ tries to download, just keeps saying, "downloading" but nothing happens, runs my battery down. What can I do?

    My ipod seems to be "stuck" downloading of workout information to Nike+. Ipod keeps saying it is downloading but doesn't complete download, runs my battery down and my computer doesn't now recognize my ipod and I get "error" message (2005).  What can I do to fix this problem?

    I suggest try getting it back to your stock iOS and forget about jailbreaking.

  • Why does my iPhone 4S WiFi keeps shutting off?

    This is the SECOND black iPhone 4S with problems with WiFi once the IOS 8 updated is downloaded.  So frustrating!
    Just after the IOS 8 update was available, I updated my black iPhone 4S.  Soon after, I experienced a hot battery, screen freezes, and the screen toggle button for WiFi was grayed out.  I called Apple support and they tried to help me.  Very pleasant!  After about 30 minutes, we concluded to reset the phone back to the original factory settings.  This fix did not work and the Apple tech told me about purchasing a new replacement phone.  Mind you, the 4S was less than two years old.  Not long after, I went into my cellular carrier and they agreed to provide me with a new Apple iPhone 4S.  The new one worked just fine for several months.  Now, that 4S has begun freezing up, and the WiFi screen toggle is again grayed.  Again, so frustrating!
    I am mentioning the BLACK 4S only because my wife has the white 4S and it has not experienced any issues, even with the IOS 8 updates.
    I need help please!  This cannot be a coincidence that two separate black 4S phones each have an issue with the WiFi toggle.
    Thank you,
    Mike

  • My iPhone 5 just keeps saying 'backing up...' When I try to back it up to iCloud. It is my first time backing up to iCloud as I have just bought a iPad. What can I do.

    There's noting on my iPad yet..

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    The first back up to iCloud may take some considerable time. Just how long isn't really possible to say without knowing how much is in your back up and your connection speed.
    What many people don't realise is that upload speeds are often significantly less than download speeds, so for example a user may have a download speed of 40 Mbps, but only 1 Mbps for uploading. As a rough guide it will take around 2 ¼ hours to upload 1 GB of data at 1 Mbps.

  • Why does my iPad 3rd gen keep saying "not charging"?

    My iPad (3rd gen) is frequently saying "not charging" when I plug it into my computer or ac adapter. I'm using Apple cords and adapters, too!

    There has to be a power going through to charge it surley , it is ither of or on not low power? . Also daughter judy said '' i have tried ac adapter''. Maybe if you have another device e.g xbox with a usb port in try to connect through there

    Most computer usb ports do not provide enough power to properly charge the ipad. If the computer goes to sleep while the ipad is plugged in, it can actually drain the battery. Use a wall charger.

  • Why does my App store just keep loading?

    I love how Apple notifies you that they are changing your password. And then you can't even update your Apps. Leave it to Apple to screw things up yet again.

    I havent had service for a week now. It comes and goes and just keeps saying searching. The AT&T rep said to back up on computer and then do a restore of the iphone. When I go to restore it wants me to turn off the find my phone in icloud. I go to do that and it says it cant deregister the device??

    Hello Becklee21,
    It sounds like you are trying to restore your phone but are unable to turn off Find my iPhone to do so. If you have already backed up your phone to iTunes on your computer with the info from the article named:
    iOS: How to back up and restore your content
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766
    I would try deleting the iCloud account from the phone altogether, then restoring the phone again.
    On your iOS device’s Home screen, go to Settings > iCloud, then at the bottom of the screen, tap Delete Account.
