iOS 6 Bluetooth problems

So I have an iPhone 4S and IPad 2. I have updated them both to iOS 6 and am having Bluetooth problems on both devices... It connects and plays for about a minute and for some odd reason it cuts out every couple seconds/minutes. I have to keep pausing or skipping tracks in order for the music to play comfortably again. This happens to me on BOTH devices and also happens on my buddies iPhone 4S as well.


I never had any of these problems in iOS 5... So does anyone know if it could be a bug or how I can fix it?

Iam also having issues with BT on my 4S. I used to be able to 1 click to SIRI and it worked great. Now my 1 click gets a male voice asking for a "COMMAND". I have found that if I say "phone" "he" will try to call the last number called. However if I yell "PHONE" it will connect to SIRI but I can only get 1 call/e-mail/text done and then the whole process starts over again. I am really confused on why the volume of my command "PHONE" gets a different action. Anyone found any solutions?

Hi, guys.


Same issue in France: Since IOS 6, no way to pair my iPhone 4S in my 135i anymore. Process stops after entering a pairing code.

Also, sometimes, the screen goes black and I struggle to get it bck.

Also losing frequently the 3G or complete network...


I'm iPad, iPhone, Apple TV, Macbook Pro, Imac equipped but will reconsider it as it gets worse and worse.

ME TOO! I love my Beats Wireless use them daily wit my high itensity work out. Since the upgrade I have to frequently stop to reconnect the blue tooth. The music also microskips, never occurred before. Funny think is, when I finally get fed up and attach the the cord to by beats, disconnecting the blue tooth it appears to work without any problems. (Perhaps I should not have said that...). If I had wanted to use a cord I would have not purchased the headphone with the blue tooth option.


Hey Apple! I hope you are working non-stop on a fix and get it out to us loyal Apple Consumers. (After 20+ years I am on the fence now).

New I Phone 5 with IOS6 and when I make blue-tooth calls via my Mercedes the recipients tell me that the call quality is VERY POOR (choppy, weak and muffled). It seems like this is a software problem. I'm posting this so (if Apple readsthis blog) they will know that there are plenty of us who need a solution. By the way, it worked well on my 4S with ios5.

I'm having a similar Bluetooth problem. I have a 2013 Subaru Forrester with Bluetooth built in. I could use it hands free to make calls and listen to iTunes on my iPhone 4s. Then I upgraded to iOS 6 and while the phone works fine, it no longer can control the audio functions. With iOS 5 I could pause/play, advance to the next song, go back. But with iOS 6, nothing. So I took a look at the phone, and its seeing the car as an AirPlay device. So I can send audio to the car and control it from the phone, which is the exact opposite of how it worked before.
