Why won't my iphone4s pair with my mercedes bluetooth?

Driving me crazy -- I turn on Bluetooth sitting in my car, and under Devices, it just says "Searching...."

Here's another article that may pertain ...
It could be that your car stereo needs a firmware update. See:
TS4483
UPDATE: Never mind -- not likely since you said it works with your iPhone.

Why won't my remote pair with my Mac Book Pro.

Battery works
Paired with Apple TV and then my iMac, both work fine. Latest versions of OS installed everywhere.
Have upaired with other devices and when I try to pair with MacBook, it won't.
MacBook Pro has Mountain Lion and is 6 months old. Not retina.
What's going on?

Did you disable this option? Look in System Preferences/Security and Privacy/Advanced. Make sure there's no checkmark in the box that says to disable the remote control receiver.

Why won't my iphone5 pair with my bmw2007 535 XI?

My iPhone 5 will not pair with my 2007 BMW 535 XI. My 4 paired just fine. My blackberry pairs well. When I bring up the pairing screen it shows lnothing but locals talking about boring stuff. I have tried multiple attempts but the phone reverts back as soon as hit the 4 th digit in the code string. Is there something Tim not doing?

If you have the same app on both the phone and the iPad then you might be able to directly transfer them. Otherwise you could email them or copy them to your computer from the phone, and then sync them to the iPad (syncing photos).

Why won't new nano pair with BMW?

I just bought the new nano. I like everything about it but am disappointed about the inability to pair it with the bluetooth in my 2008 BMW 328i.
According to bmwusa.com, my vin # has the latest bluetooth that BMW offers. I'd think that would mean it would pair, but it will not.
Caveats:
1.) I have meticulously followed the BMW instructions on bluetooth pairing.
2.) I can pair my iPhone 4s in this vehicle
3.) I tried deleting the 4s and power cycling both the car and the nano. But I still could not not pair the nano.
Anyone out there know how to solve this?

Thank you deggie. I did not know about A2DP or, for that matter, that there was a distinct stereo flavor of bluetooth which the nano needs
Do you by chance know if a car's bluetooth can be upgraded to A2DP?
Btw, I checked with my BMW dealer and they couldn't really help. Their only feedback was that my 2008 vehicle has the latest-and-greatest bluetooth offered by BMW and that their 2012 models have no capabilities beyond that of my 2008.

Other than above, it does not connect to other phones or computers.

Why won't my printer print with Windows 8?

Why won’t my printer print with Windows 8?
Have you just upgraded, or purchased a new computer with Windows 8, and now you can’t get your printer to work? If so, this may help you. A lot of people have questions about installing their printer on a new OS. This will help you answer those questions and make sure that you get everything installed.
Before You Start
Before you try to install the printer on a Windows 8 computer, you should check to make sure the printer is compatible with the new OS. The link below will give you a list of the printers that will work in Windows 8.
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c03168175&lc=en&cc=us&destPage=document&dlc=en
If you have upgraded your computer to Windows 8 form another version of Windows, make sure to completely uninstall all of the software for your printer. It should still print, but to use all the functions you will need to reinstall the software, if it’s available.
Another thing to consider is how you want to connect the printer to the computer.
USB. You should make sure that you have a USB cable that is no longer than 6 ft. (roughly 2m). Make sure to connect the printer directly to the computer. Do not use a USB hub.
Ethernet cable. Make sure you have the network setup, that you have a free cable port on the router, and that you have an Ethernet cable available.
Wireless. You should make sure that you have the wireless network setup, and that you have the password for the wireless network.
1.     Installing Via USB
Installing via USB in Windows 8 has become much simpler for HP printer users. In other versions of the Windows OS you had to start the installation and wait for it to ask you for the USB connection. If you didn’t, you would have to uninstall the printer from the Printers/Devices folder, and then start the install. In Windows 8, that will not be a problem. If you plug the printer’s USB cable in and then install the printer’s software, it will still work. Now for in depth instructions on installing the printer via USB click the link below.
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c03460670&tmp_task=solveCategory&cc=us&dlc=en&la...
2.     Installing Via an Ethernet Network Connection
For an Ethernet network connected printer the install is amazingly simple. All you have to do is connect the printer to the network. Once you have that done, Windows 8 will automatically install the drivers for you. Then, all you have to do is install the rest of the software, if it’s available. It’s really that easy.

3.     Installing Via a Wireless Network Connection.
For a wireless network connected printer the install is amazingly simple as well. All you have to do is connect the printer to the network. Once you have that done, Windows 8 will automatically install the drivers for you. Then, all you have to do is install the rest of the software, if it’s available. It’s pretty much the same as an Ethernet install, just wireless.
http://www8.hp.com/us/en/support-drivers.html
Alternate Install Methods
With Windows 8, many printers’ drivers are installed with the OS. These are known as InOS drivers, since they come built into the operating system. If you have one of those printers, all you should have to do is connect it to the computer via USB, or connect it to the network via Ethernet or wireless. Once you have that done Windows will handle the rest. There are alternate methods of installing your printer if the normal methods are not working for some reason. You can install the printer either using the Printer Install Wizard, or through Windows Updates.
Printer Install Wizard:
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c02681060&tmp_task=solveCategory&cc=us&dlc=en&la...
Windows Update:
http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c03460648&tmp_task=solveCategory&cc=us&dlc=en&la...
Note: The Laserjet drivers for the Asia-Pacific and Japan won’t be released until a later date. Check the support site linked below for driver availability. I will update this post once they become available.

Ok, so sometimes apple's servers may crash, temporarily. Just check the following site: http://www.apple.com/uk/support/systemstatus/
and it will notify you of any crashes. The link above is for the UK. Change to adapt to your country if you are outside of the UK. If your problem isn't listed I am sure it will be resolved within 24 hours. If this problem persists best thing is to contact apple.
Hope this helped :)

Open Safari and navigate to www.apple.com to verify data connectivity. Learn more about troubleshootingcellular data or a Wi-Fi connection if a data connection isn't available.
iMessage over cellular data might not be available while on a call. Only 3G and faster GSM networks support simultaneous data and voice calls. Learn more about which network your phone supports. Go to Settings > Wi-Fi and turn Wi-Fi on to use iMessage while on a call if your network doesn't support simultaneous data and voice calls.
Restart your device.
Tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings on your iPhone.
If you are still unable to send or receive an iMessage, follow these steps
Make sure that the contact trying to message you isn't blocked in Settings > Messages > Blocked.
Verify that the contact you are attempting to send a message to is registered with iMessage.
If the issue occurs with a specific contact or contacts, back up or forward important messages and delete your current messaging threads with the contact. Create a new message to the contact and try again.
If the issue occurs with a specific contact or contacts, delete and re-create the contact in the Contacts application. Create a new message to the newly created contact and try again.
Back up and restore your device as new.
Best of luck,

I just bought a new 2013 Honda civic and my iPhone 4S won't pair with the cars Bluetooth device but it did on other people's iPhones; I have no other Bluetooth devices on my phone. Any suggestions?

I have to ask,
Are you making sure you are in park before attempting the sync? The car won't allow you to do it in motion, whether or not you're the passenger.

HT3702 Yes you placed a hold but then when I went to complete an in app purchase it says I can't. I have no restrictions on this **** thing and never had this problem.. Why won't your iTunes communicate with my games so I can purchase stuff.

We are fellow users here on these user-to-user forums, you're not talking to iTunes Support nor Apple.
If you are getting an error message then what is the full text of it ?
The temporary store holding charge is standard, it should disappear within a few days or so.

My Iphone 3GS with IOS 5.1 won't pair with my Mercedes ML350 bluetooth

Why doesn't my IPhone 3GS with IOS5.1 pair with my Mercedes ML350 bluetooth?

Sorry, I haven't a clue. However, in "pairing" phones, I've found that it's not a perfect science and most of the time, if I keep making an attempt, my phone does pair. Today, I finally got around to pairing my new 4S with my Ford Flex. Same story, the first 3 or 4 attempts crashed. Then for some unknown reason, doing the same procedure, the phone did pair with my Flex.
