All devices on the iPad appear as Not Connected, but I have tested with my Blackberry and it is connected as it can see the iPad Bluetooth address and states it is connected. But my Parrot Zik headphones will not connect/pair. I thought originally it was the headphones but now I think it is the Bluetooth on the iPad?
iPad 2, iOS 7.0.6
Kind of confusing, what you're doing, but if I'm reading your post correctly:
1. Your iPad can not pair with your Blackberry. iPads only pair with speakers, keyboards and headphones
2. If you can not pair your headphones correctly, it is likely because the headphones are paired with the Blackberry and it is nearby, so it won't pair with your iPad.
Again, your post is somewhat confusing, so please clarify if my assumptions are not correct.
Sorry, let me explain again.
The iPad cannot connect using Bluetooth with any device. It requests that I make sure they are close enough and switched on.
With the Blackberry it can discover the iPad but the iPad will now reciprocate. The blackberry and the Parrot Zik headphones will pair so I know their Bluetooth works, it's an iPad problem. I have tried a reset but it makes no difference. These headphones use to work only thing that has changed is iPad OS?
Again, your iPad can NOT connect with your Blackberry via Bluetooth. It's simply not supported.
And as I stated above, the headphones probably won't pair with your iPad because they are already paired with your Blackberry.
The Blackberry is not connected to the headphones it was I one off test to eliminate the headphones as being the problem, as I first discovered this problem when using the headphones.
The iPad will not pair with the blackberry or the headphones?
I'm sure it will pair with the headphones, but it will NOT pair with the Blackberry. Chances are you're just not using the correct pairing method for pairing the headphones with your iPad. Make sure your Blackberry is off, or at least Bluetooth is off when you try to pair the headphones with your iPad. If you don't have the directions on how to pair them, then google the directions. iPad uses standard Bluetooth pairing, so you shouldn't have an issue with your iPad.
