I am trying to pair my LG rumor 2 with my new iPad 2. The iPad sees the device and the phone can detect the iPad but each time they fail to connect. On the phone I go to trusted devices choose my iPad and press connect while at the same time telling the iPad to connect. First the iPad says "failed to connect" the cell takes a little longer but eventually says the same. Is this phone just to old to move pictures via bluetooth?
Oh, I get it, you are Beavis' sidekick, old what's his name.
I believe that tethering on the iPad is handled by wi-fi, not BlueTooth, which is what the lady said because the OP is inquiring about BT abilities of the iPad.
'' Internet tethering is not supported via Bluetooth. ''

Internet tethering is supported by bluetooth it uses the bluetooth to connect to the iPad or any other ios 4.3 device. The only thing you cannot do through bluetooth is information transfer.
Get online in more places.
On the road, in an airport, at the park — now you can take Wi-Fi with you wherever you go. Download iOS 4.3 on your iPhone 4, and the next time you find yourself without access to Wi-Fi but in 3G territory, enable Personal Hotspot and share your mobile data connection with your Mac, PC, iPad or other Wi-Fi-capable device. You can share your connection with up to five devices at once over Wi-Fi, BLUETOOTH and USB.4 Every connection is password protected and secure. And it’s power friendly too. iPhone detects when your Personal Hotspot is no longer in use and turns it off to save battery life
I know Some one I overheard talking in class said they had moved pictures and such from their phone to their iPad 1. I admit I think she had a newer phone than what I'm using, any names of apps that allow this? And no I'm not trying to tether the phone for 1 this is a wifi model iPad and 2 the rumor 2 has a failure of a Internet browser 🙂
You might want to take a moment and study this thread to learn how to respond to a particular comment or to the thread in general. It looks like you are responding to Meg when you should have been responding to me. There is less confusion when one responds to the person who actually made the comment.
But my point was not an exhaustive comment about tethering, just to point out to our detractor of that moment that in the iOS devices, tethering was not accomplished using BT, but is accomplished using wi-fi.
