Could you explain how you managed to pair the device to your phone I have wireless headphones that I accidentally did this with and now can’t use them

You need to put the headphones into pairing mode according to the manufacturer's instructions. If you've lost the printed instructions, go to the manufacturer's website and look up the instructions.

I have a winter hat with Bluetooth. It would connect so hit forget this device like an idiot hoping it would reset. How can I pair it again?? It didn’t come with a man

Check the manufacturer's website for instructions.

I keep pressing power button and up volume botten at the same time, immediately appeared “pair device” in my phone, some i did it again like a first time.

That only works if that's how you put the device in pairing mode. There is no universal way of doing that. Many of my speakers have a dedicated button. My Amazon Echo uses a voice command.

What do you mean?

If your BlueTooth device didn't come with a manual or you've mislaid it, go to the manufacturer's website to find the instructions for how to put that device into pairing mode.

I have discovered the fix for this. Turn the Bluetooth setting to “off” & after a few second turn it on again. This enabled my iPhone to recognize again my “forget this device” victim.

That won't do any good unless the device you're trying to pair is in pairing mode.

I tired to pair to my keyboard but I accidentally hit forget device when I really just wanted to disconnect, I have tried turning my Bluetooth on and off on both things and then I have done a Network reset and that hasn’t helped. What else can I do?

Is the hands free device in discoverable (pairing) mode? If not, then the phone won't find it. Check the manual for the device you're trying to pair with.

Once a device is forgotten it will never connect again until it is re-paired. You must put the device into pairing mode, as Tim said.

Can u post how u got yours to re-pair ? I can connect and pair to other devices Bluetooth, but can not re. Discover my brookstone keyboard with my iPad 3 iOS 7.04. Thx

Don't forget to turn on the 'personal hotspot' in 'settings'

Had the same problem with Plantronics Voyetra Edge and iPhone 6, I held down the call button on the Edge then pressed and held the volume up button which reset the connection

Thank you. it helped me!
