"we have the same Apple id in our family so you can do according to your answer but then you would have to do this all the time when using several units at the same time."

Apple Computer: As for your Mac, if you never want it to connect, then you have to block it out (and then unblock it, when you want to use it once more). If blocked out, it would never connect.

Go Here: Set up and listen to Bluetooth devices on iPhone - Apple Support

Troubleshooting This:

You would either:

  • disable Bluetooth when only needing to use one of them at the moment

or

  • you would unpair it from the device that it is paired to - repair them later on.

What to do:

Try a fresh restore: backing up your iPhone. Then, restore it to factory settings. Once reset to factory settings, restore it from the backup you just made. Corrupted file should then be fixed.
