Q: Blue tooth

Hi there,

You can't actually connect these two device via bluetooth. You can use a charging cable.

Hope this helps,

Aaron

Because it appears that you are trying to connect the iPhone to the computer. It cannot be done. See this. Bluetooth: Why can't I pair my iPhone or iPad with another iOS device or with my computer?

You can use your iPhone as a hotspot for your computer but you do not need to pair them to do so. Use the hotspot setting on your iPhone.

Even attempting to use the iPhone as a hotspot, you do not pair the phone in that manner. You turn on Bluetooth and it should be located. See this support document about setting up your device as a hotspot and using Bluetooth to connect. Just one hint though, using Bluetooth to connect for hotspot is not going to give you the best speeds. I would consider wi-fi or a direct connection with USB and lightning.
