New iPhone 4s bluetooth won't pair with anything

New iPhone 4s 64GB Verizon.


Won't pair with Jawbone Jambox.


Or MacBook Pro 15" (OS X 10.6.8). Pairing code shows on MBP and iPhone, but pairing is unsuccessful.


Or Pioneer AS-BT100.


These are the only things I've tried to pair so far.


All these paired easily and intuitively to iPhone 3GS.

Hi

yep that sounds identical, the way that i've resolved this was to buy an iphone app (i think it cost two or three quid) called airsharing, this synced up the iphone with the imac very nicely for drag and drop wireless transferrs. I think what it did was register the iphone with the mac as a server,(but not certain i ain't really a techie) anyhow it wasn't too tricky to set up Good luck ;}

I finally got mine to work based on some advice on the BluAnt website.

I did a total reset on my bluetooth hands free, then paired them and it FINALLY worked!

Not sure about cars or ipads. :-(


If there is firmware update for your bluetooth, I would do that too before you do the reset and pairing.

Good luck!

I have problems with my new iphone 4s. It will not pair with my ipad2, BMW x3 or my Sony radio for hands free calling & playing music from iTunes. I still have my old iPhone 3GS & I can still pair this with all 3 items. This is a major problem for me & I am getting nowhere with either apple or Vodafone in solving this problem. Can anyone HELP PLEASE!
