Why doesnt my ipod not connect to other device through bluetooth

Why doesn't my ipod touch 4g connect with other devices through bluetooth ?

Because the iPod does not have the necessary BT profiles to do that. You can pair with another iOS device via BT via some apps that for peer-to-peer gaming.
You can also use apps for limited file transfer between iOS devices like this app:
https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/id590369016?mt=8
Without apps you can pair to newer iPhones to share there interent connection if you have subscribed for sharing with your carrier

    My home wireless is no longer recognized, even going through the set-up process.  It does not connect to the car through Bluetooth seamlessly--I have to add my phone as a new device each time I get in the car.  In attempting to solve these problems I have gone to settings-phone-upgrade and it states that the upgrade is available-select to continue-(which I do)- it checks -please wait and it then states that update not available - try later.

    Maybe not too late to help you.
    For specifically fixing the Bluetooth, un-pair your phone with the car, and go through the process of repairing the two.
    In general, the KK update requires many of us (different phones) to perform a Factory Data Reset after we back up our personal content (pictures, music, movies, or other downloaded files) to a PC or MAC. This will result in you having to do a bit of work to setup icons for the programs you use, and maybe putting in the specifics again for email accounts and other specialized apps. So if you are going to do this sort of thing... copy important information/settings down on paper.

  • Ipod not connecting to itunes store through wifi

    My ipod had been fine since i bought it but all of a sudden it stopped connecting to the itunes through wifi. safari worrks ine as well as youtube but everytime i try the itunes store it says cannot connect to itunes store. ive tried from several different wifi locations and it still wont connect. Help please?!

    Since this sounds like it is website specific, try this:
    a) go to iTunes > Store and make sure you can log onto your account
    b) go to Settings > Safari > Reset History and clear that
    c) go to Settings > Safari > Reset Cookies and clear those
    d) try the iTunes store again

  • Why my ipad does not connet to android device using bluetooth

    I am trying to connect my Ipad to android phone using bluetooth, it shos the name of device but does connect to android phone although they both were able to discover the device. I am trying to transfer some files from android to ipad.
    any help?

    IOS devices dont allow bluetooth profiles for file sharing. Bluetooth is too slow for that in my opnion to be of any use. I have heard there are apps that allow you to do so. I dont know what they are called. I would use email, it is way faster!
    Dropbox? Maybe

  • Why does my Ipod not synchronize all playlists? Some get synchronized, others don't. Yet there is enough space available.

    Why does my Ipod not synchronize all playlists? Some get synchronized, others don't. Yet there is enough available space.

    The S.I. prefix Giga is used to mean both 1000x1000x1000 and 1024x1024x1024. Computer software typically uses the second version, but using the first number makes the same number of bytes appear bigger when expressed as Gb, so is favoured by hard drive manufactures.
    80Gb10 = 74.3Gb2
    It's a bit like specifying a quantity in gallons without saying whether they are US or Imperial gallons - everybody gets the same volume but one number will be bigger than the other. I could offer you a tank with 10 Imperial gallons of fuel in it - but if I tell you it's 12 US gallons it sounds like you're getting more for your money.
    Once the total size of your library exceeds the capacity of your device all you need to do is create some size limited playlists to determine what goes on the device. Don't sync all movies, sync one or two that you plan to watch soon. Likewise with TV Shows. Limit podcasts to unplayed episodes and finally create a music subset. What worked for me for some time was a smart playlist called Steve's Tunes defined as Playlist is Music and Playlist is not Exclude where Exclude was regular playlist that I would manually add to until Steve's Tunes was small enough to fit. These days I run an iPhone and have a number of smart playlists with ? Gb of most played, ? Gb of highly rated, ? Gb of recently added, ? Gb of essentials, ? Gb of unplayed etc. Each time I sync I get slightly updated selection without having to put any extra effort in.
