Apple Intelligence is now available on iPhone, iPad, and Mac!
How do you turn ON bluetooth on a earlier model: MC989LL/A IPAD version 9.3.5 ?
iPad 2, iOS 9
Thanks, I wish it was that easy. BUT, Bluetooth never goes to ON status. In the BLUETOOTH right side window on the IPAD it has a circling symbol that never stops. Something is not configured or not turned on elsewhere. What am I missing that is not set yet ?
For iPad models with a Home button, do a simple hard reset of your iPad by holding down both the Home and sleep/wake/power button simultaneously until your iPad goes to black and restarts with Apple logo, then release the buttons.
If the Bluetooth switch does not appear at the top right and instead there is an animated circle there, then there's likely something wrong with the BT hardware. There is no other place to configure Bluetooth.
You can try some of the suggestions listed here: https://macreports.com/ios-bluetooth-wont-turn-fix/
If none of that works, then it may be a hardware issue with the Bluetooth chip and it would need to be repaired or replaced by Apple or an Authorized service provider.
Settings>Bluetooth = ON

Tried the hard reset. Did not change the symptoms for bluetooth. I will keep searching and if you have any other ideas, let me know. Thanks for the technical support ideas.
