Try resetting you network settings. And make sure your other device is discoverable.
hmmm... I tried to restart my iphone 5 and now it's working fine... 🙂
Thanks for this info....I have a blue Ant system in my car....can't see it...bought a brand new Flex3, could see it but didn't work...or should I say the 3 songs I bought from itunes showed up and started playing while we were driving (didn't tell it to do this either), then when a call came through, music stops, can't hear the person .....well you get the picture. So I came on here to see what everyone else had to say....and I was so excited to have a new Iphone5.
I can't get my screen protector on straight either, finally tossed it...grrrr.
I am disappoined APPLE!! I have all t hings apple here but this phone is irritating when you can't connect.
PS, I dug out an old bluetooth earpiece, connected quickly, could hear clearly, but realized no one could hear me cause the dog had chewed on it!!! Ah phooey
wait - it's Apple's fault that you are too fumble fingered to apply a screen protector? An accessory that isn't even needed or recommended?
Try this for 3rd party Bluetooth connections http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1664 and this for troubleshooting Bluetooth. http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4562
Thanks Chris for being so helpful.
Thank you very much i too faced similar issues with Bose BlueTooth Headset with my iPhone 5 and didn't have any idea, but yours make it work out - presto
with kind regards JM
I had to reference my owner's manual for my bluetooth speaker b/c I couldn't get my 5s to even recognize it. I have the Logitech Z515. After following the instructions of holding down the volume + & - buttons simultaneously for 10sec my speaker was then recognizable & I could pair it. It's amazing what you can find out if you just read the instruction manual! And surprise it wasn't b/c of ios7.
Thanks for adding a little sanity where it is needed 🙂
Thanks Josh. I tried your sugestion and it worked!!! I was having trouble with pairing my iPhone 5S with BMW328. Just cleared all paired phones from the car and then tried re-pairing the Iphone 5S. It worked. The name of my old iPhone 4S and the new 5S was the same since I restored everytihing from a backup. The car audio system was getting confused with the old setting saved in its memory.
THANK GOD I GOT MINE FIXED--- This is what worked for me -----
navigate to General > Accessibility > Physical & Motor. From here, change the Incoming Calls setting from Default to Headset. This change ensures that the iPhone creates a Bluetooth headset pairing to your car’s audio system, which is needed for phone calls to work as expected. When you are not in your car, the iPhone reverts to its “normal” behavior.
Thanks Zoomgirl for the tip for the Bose Bluetooth headset! press the call button 5 seconds and it was discovered.
Brandnew Iphone 5s that won't connect with bluetooth to apple keyboard or iPad3 on iOS 7.0.4

Any cues?
On the keyboard make sure it is not paired with another device.
As to the iPad what are you attempting to do?
I have new iPad air and iPhone 5s with latest patches and they cannot see each other via Bluetooth...nice...i have enable and disabled Bluetooth and also rebooted without any success
