Since the latest "upgrade" my iPad does not connect to my Sony Bluetooth speakers. I've restarted everything. I unpaired the speaker and then paired again, nothing. The iPad says they are connected but no sound and the gear keeps spinning.

Since the latest "upgrade" to iOS my iPad mini no longer connects to my Sony Bluetooth speakers. I have restarted the iPad. I have unpaired and repaired the speakers. Bluetooth showes as connected but the gear keeps spinning saying it's still looking for devices Even though it says it has paired with the speakers. Any suggestions? and yes the volume is up.

iPad Mini, iOS 9.3.1

Wowww, wow, wowww ... I see I'm not the only one, shame on you Apple :-)! My iPad Pro (top notch product according to many ratings and advertisings) CANNOT connect to any bluetooth device! I tried restarting it multiple times but it keeps searching and searching ... In my case this is a simple transmitter-receiver bluetooth plug that gets connected to a car computer for engine diagnostics using an app. It doesn't have any power button for restart (that device) - as it was suggested in some posting to help, hopefully solving the problem! Well, I guess I will have to borrow some old Android player, phone, tablet or e-reader to do the job ... Dear Apple, isn't that RIDICULOUS :-)?!!! ...
