I have had a similar problem!! I just got an iphone 6 upgrading from the 4 and my wireless headphones used to connect very easily to the 4 and now in the bluetooth settings on my iphone 6 it can't even recognize or find my headphones let alone connect to them! Is this a bug? Please help, thanks!

Mark, my issue was a result of too much fatigue and too few brains. I had merely forgotten to turn on pairing on my bluetooth device. Once I realized my idiotic mistake, it worked immediately. Don’t know what the problem on your side could be. I believe the newest bluetooth technology (iPhone 6) is backward compatible with the oldest bluetooth technology (headphones) so it should work.
