My iphone will not detect other bluetooth devices or allow any others to send to it

Same Problem

Apr 26, 2009

-   My iphone will not "discover" my bluetooth speakerphone Jabra sp5050
It is supposed to be compatible and many people have posted that theirs works just fine
I don't know how to set it manually, but the automatic discovery doesn't work even when the two of them are side by side.

This is not strictly true - my iPhone connects wonderfully to my Plantronics Voyager 520 headset. It will not connect to other phones, headphones, etc. via bluetooth. It is intentionally crippled and will only connect to a headset via bluetooth.

My guess is that Apple sells songs and doesn't want you trading them around to your friends via bluetooth. Whatever the reason, it's quite annoying.

You can only use iPhone bluetooth to connect to a headphone but not for any thing else. You can't transfer pictures and files from or to the iPhone using bluetooth. this is very stupid, the interface is there, yet you can't use it properly, i think i am selling my iPhone.

Cannot use iPhone hands free in car despite ViseeO device costing £ 299!  Don't buy either!

Comment by rgpearse, posted on Dec 22, 2008

I cannot transfer any of my phone numbers stored on my iPhone 3G to the incar telephone (Mercedes S class 2003) via ViseeO MB1000 and bluetooth.
Basically if the iPhone wont work in the car then it can go on the scrap heap.

BT on iPhone keeps searching for devices, not finding computers or other phones. Seems not to be working at all. Bluetooth on iPhone has problems connecting to anything. Didn't try with other Apple devices.

Comment by APcell, posted on Dec 08, 2008

-- it's not you or (just) your phone .. when it comes to Bluetooth compatibility .. they cannot recognize any device and cannot be used to receive or send any files .. overall, the BT on the iPhone seems to carry little functionality outside use of accessories like the Apple Bluetooth headset. -- Apple’s Bluetooth File Exchange for Mac OS X cannot send files to the iPhone stating “Device does not have the necessary services.-- iSync for Mac OS X cannot be used to synchronize with the iPhone via Bluetooth, delivering the message “iSync can not connect to this device.

iphone does not have the necessary components to even connect properly to macbook--it says it's paired with it but does not allow browsing or media files to be sent to and from it!!!!!! Even entering the passkey from the laptop doesn't work.......Apple needs to fix this-what's the point of having bluetooth if it doesn't work!!???
