HT203646 Blue tooth will not connect to macbook pro

Since mavericks my iPhone 5 bluetooth connects for a second then disconnects for good. I have tried several recommendations including taking the apostrophe out of my computer's discoverable name. Turning bluetooth on and off and a host of other suggestions. I don't have usb devices as suggested to disconnect. Airdrop works so I can use that but bluetooth should work unless apple says it is not required and should not work.

The phone and computer are only BT supported for tethering.

iPhone 4 will not connect to macbook air via bluetooth

Try the suggestions here > iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for OS X
If nothing helped, repair permissions.
Disconnect the iPhone.
On your Mac open Disk Utility located in HD > Applications > Utilities
Select the startup disk on the left then select the First Aid tab.
Then select: Repair Disk Permissions
This process can take a few minutes.
When it's done, restart your Mac and connect the iPhone.
If that doesn't help, reset the PRAM > About NVRAM and PRAM

CD will not eject and MacBook Pro won't restart

CD will not eject and MacBook Pro won't restart.

Do a SMC reset, that hopefully should get you booting and while booting, hold the option/alt and trackpad button down at the same time. Once a row of icons appears and if the disk hasn't ejected via the trackpad method, then press the eject key on the keyboard until it does.
Click the arrow to boot up OS X.

If this doesn't work, then take the machine in for service.

IPhone 4s bluetooth not connecting to macbook pro

My iPhone 4s bluetooth is not connecting to macbook pro. My 3Gs has always worked perfectly fine. Is there a problem with the 4s hardware or iOS 5? Anyone have any ideas?

I'm trying to connect using Bluetooth to use my iPhone as a remote for keynote while on the go (no network to connect to.) maybe it can't be done with the new iPhones but it seems like we should be able to. Thanks for the snarky and super helpful answer though.

External keypad will not connect to MacBook

If anybody knows what to do..please help!
Also, there is not "Num Lock" but a "State Lock"
Thanks!

I am having a similar problem with using an external HD and timemachine for backups. When I first connect the HD with a USB cable timemachine "sees" the drive and allows the backup to start. The backup fails after about 5gb and says that the drive was "disconnected" and then drive is no longer recognized by timemachine and does not show up in Finder. I also did not have an issue until I installed Mt. Lion.

TS1363 iPod Classic 160gb will not connect to Macbook.

My iPod classic will not connect to my macbook. It is recognized by my wall charger, speakers, and FM transmitter in my car. I've had this trouble for some time, but before I attributed to my previous Macbook which had a few other problems. However I just got a new macbook, and it is still not coming up in Finder nor iTunes. Any advice is much appreciated!

What have you tried so far in terms of troubleshooting this issue? Are you plugging the iPod into a high powered USB 2.0 port on the back of your Mac? Have you tried another USB cable just in case?
What happens if you try to reset the device with it still connected to the Mac?

if you can't mount the image, you probably have a corrupt download.

Airport extreme will connect to some iPhones and iPads, but not all, and will not connect to MacBooks.

Why will the airport extreme not connect internet to macbook or some iPhones? It will connect to all our iPhone 6's and iPads but not to the MacBooks. The macbook says wi-fi has the self assigned ip address of ___,____,____,___ and will not be able to connect to the internet,

Have you done a full restart of the network in correct order?
Shut down everything.. OFF not standby.
Power on in order.
Modem.. wait 2min
Router.. (Extreme??) wait 2min
Macbook.. Only the Macbook.. do restart anything else yet.
Any luck??
No luck reset the Extreme to factory and redo the setup.. this time use all short names, no spaces and pure alphanumeric. Bonus for names <10 characters.
Use passwords with the same rules.. only can be 8-20 characters.. mixed case and numbers.
Try again with the Macbook..
No luck give explicit details of the setup of the whole network.

Iphone 4s will not mount on MacBook Pro (Via USB)

My iphone (6.1.3) won't connect to computer (Macbook pro (10.7.5). I rarely do this, so perhaps have inadvertantly turned off an important setting? But typically iphone is accessible from desktop, itunes and iphoto. Not visible anywhere currently. I performed a restart on iphone (apple logo visible) but still won't mount. I am using an Apple USB cable as always, and have also tried the backup cable -both of which will charge the phone pefectly. I did hear the connection sound when cable was attached.
I have wifi & phone works perfectly on that, but I typically use cable connection for computer access.
I have not "upgraded" to ios 7 as I'm not to fond of its current UI. But perhaps this is the problem? Until now this phone was fully compatible w the laptop & 10.7.5 OS.
Suggestions? Thanks

Hello JazzJunkie,
I would be concerned as well if my iPhone was not recognized by iTunes. Thank you for providing all the information with the steps you took in regards to this issue. I recommend continuing with these steps:
Follow these steps to resolve your issue:
Ensure that your Mac meets the minimum system requirements for your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch.
Install software updates on your Mac.
Note: If an iTunes update is available, apply the update.http://apple.com/itunes/download
Check USB connections. iOS devices require USB 2.0 to function properly. If you're not sure your Mac has USB 2.0 ports, refer to the computer's specifications.
Disconnect other USB devices and connect your device directly to a USB port on your Mac.
Restart your Mac.
Additional Information
In rare circumstances, your device may be recognized after reinstalling iTunes, but after you restart your Mac, the device may not be recognized again. If this happens and you're using Mac OS X v10.6 Snow Leopard, please follow these steps.

Why is First Generation iPad not connecting to MacBook Air?

We received our daughter's first generation iPad. Whenever I connect it to the new MacBook Air the iPad will keep beeping, and give a message that "this iPhone is not longer connected to itunes" The beeping continues.
It connects OK to my Macbook Pro, but I don't want to sync it with the MacBook Pro.
I re-installed iTunes on the MacBook Air and then plugged in the iPad and got the message that the USB port was being disconnected because there was too much power draw on that port. The only USB connection is the iPad.
Any ideas on what this could be? I'm using a newer cable, the iPad was 45% charged. Is there some limitation of the power draw on the MacBook Air? Is this older iPad drawing more power than the MacBook Air is capable of?

- Macbook Air is plugged into external power
- I cleaned the connections on the iPad and on the cable
- Nothing changed, still get the USB power message and/or the message from iTunes that the device is no longer connected.

Photoshop CS6 will not launch on MacBook Pro. Adobe icon appears then disappears.

On a macbook pro.photoshop will not open. i've tried everything all that happens is an adobe icon appears and then quickly disappears. i have photoshop cs6 suite for a little over a year now. no problems until today. please help - i have a project due tomorrow.

Hello:
I am sorry but I am a Windows user and so I am not sure I can help you. I do not know if you have enough time before your project is due but if you do not get an answer here you may want to just call Adobe. They have techs that can walk you through everything. They can take over your computer and fix it for you. They have done this for me many times when I have had problems and I have always been helped.
I do not know if Mac is the same but have you tried going to your Program Files? Like... your C drive > whatever > whatever > program files? and then right + click to open it from there ...?? does Mac have something similar??
I totally wish that I could help you more than this!! Best of luck and I really do hope you can get your project done or an extension!!

Word document will not open on macbook pro?

ICal posts from iPhone 4s will not sync onto Macbook Pro iCal

I have a MacBook Pro version 10.6.8 and an iPhone 4s iOS 6.1.3
I cannot seem to transfer the events that I add to my iPhone's iCal to my MacBook's iCal.
I have all the calendars synched to my iPhone, but can't figure out to get the stuff from my iPhone to MacBook Pro.
Any suggestions?
Thanks.

When you say "I have all the calendars synched to my iPhone," what is on the other end of that synch? iCloud? Google? Something else?
If it's iCloud, you have a problem. 10.6.8 doesn't really play well with iCloud, which did not exist when 10.6.8 was created. (10.6 was built to use MobileMe, which was replaced by iCloud.) iCloud was one of the new features announced with 10.7, and it didn't really come into its own until 10.8.
At one time, I would have recommended that you purchase BusyCal 1.6, which could run on 10.6.8 and could synch with iCloud. Unfortunately, BusyMac no longer sells BusyCal 1.6 or any other version that runs on 10.6.8.
There may be other products with similar capabilities, but I never tried them, so I cannot recommend one. Maybe somebody else will come along with a recommendation.
