bluetooth

I'm hanging the same problem with Jabra hands free (cruiser). I ran iPhone 4 with iOS 5 beta and gm with no problem. Problem started with iPhone 4S. iPhone 4S with ios 5 won't discover ANY bluetooth devices that were discoverable with iPhone 4 with ios 5. Suggestions welcome. (am cross posting this to a couple of BT problem threads)

Having...the same prob...

I am having the same problem, it keeps searching and searching....:(

Same problem... extremely frusterating. Apple can make a top of the line phone but cant seem to have it do the basics. Maybe focus a little more on the basics and then all the glitter.

Similar problem for me as well. I was able to pair my iPhone 4s to my Garmin NUVI, but am having trouble pairing my HP printer. The printer sees the iPhone, but the iPhone doesn't see the printer. Just keeps searching and searching and searching.

I have 4s ios5 and having the same problem, i cannot even access settings for bluetooth, it simply has "searching and "now discoverable" displayed, i am tygin to connect to plantronics headset which i had no problem with on old I phone 4.

The Bluetooth logo up the top is greyed out while in Bluetooth settings but dissapears as if it isnt on when i go out.

I have since found out that the iPhone does NOT support a Bluetooth connection to my wireless HP printer. Even though my 3 year old LG will do it, the iPhone will not. I'm told I have to get a new HP printer with the AirPrint feature in order to use the bluetooth oon my iPhone. That *****.

I have problem with my Bluetooth too. I have iPhone 4 wit iOS 5.1.1 and use some headsets from Plantronics, Jabra, Blade and have every time the same problem with any of them. The pairing procedure is going always very well, but when I switch off any of the headsets for longer tome, for example more than 1 hour and then switch on the headset again, the headset cannot be connected to the iPhone automatically, nevertheless that the Bluetooth is on in searching mode. Very occasionally I found out the following procedure which works:

Settings>General>Bluetooth Off>Bluetooth On> Tap on the device name to connect

and the connection is established.

It is but very bore to do this every time when I sit in my car and as usual I am in a hurry. I tried different thinks like to delete the device and pair it again or to reboot deeply the iPhone but nothing helps. Has anyone solution for this problem?

After Updating iOS newest Version 6 the Apple iPhone does not work with our Bluetooth in any of our vechicles. Everyone that we've asked that owns an iPhone 4 has stated the same thing that after they updated their iPhones iOS to the newest release 6. Their BlueThooth in their vechicles is sporattic at best. Does anyone know of a Fix.

i phone 4s works well with my TATA Vista car which was released in 2012. But the worst thing is I CANNOT share any file (like a photo or music ) with any other device NOT even MacBook. Isn't this ridiculous???

Apple MUST improve the Bluetooth connectivity amongst ite own products first. This blue connectivity MUST be independent of the following as this is one of the communication options amongst WiFi, Bluetooth, Cellular (data plan), Personal Hotspot. Bluetooth MUST NOT be hiding under WiFi or Cellular data/Personal Hotspot at all.

This will make the family members or one with a few Apple devices to share stuff with the devices. We have not even included other android phones.

Shouldn't Apple lead in this techie thing?

Agreed. I'm already regretting upgrading from my rock solid iPhone 4s to the iPhone 5s. The old phone connected via Bluetooth to my Subaru, my Bose headset and home answering system and never had a issue, I could leave my iPhone in my backpack toss it in the car and it connected to the Subaru headset. The same went for my Bose headset now every time I want to use any Bluetooth device I have to open the iPhone 5s and connect manually. This is UNACCEPTABLE APPLE! Both phone are running the latest version IOS so the issue is the iPhone 5s.

Feel free to delete my last post, this discussion is based on older devices and IOS. I'll re-post elsewhere.
