Do i have to turn off bluetooth on both my iphone and my apple watch to sync phone or ipad to my mac

I cannot sync my phone or iPad to my Mac. I have an Apple watch.

It starts, then stalls and never completes.

i turned off bluetooth on iPhone as recommended; still did not work.


iPhone 15

No, but you don't sync your iPad with your Mac using BT, the 2 best methods are (in this order):


  1. Use iCloud on both devices to sync the data you want synced.
  2. Sync content between your Mac and iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch over Wi-Fi - Apple Support
