bluetooth

For some reason the bluetooth audio cuts out after a track or two and will not come back on until restarting bluetooth all together on my 2015 BMW with iDrive (latest idrive firmware). I thought it was the OS at first so I did a network reset first that didn't help. Second I did a full erase of...

I've got the little white one. It connects to iOS but now that I've upgraded to iOS 10 games seem to be unresponsive to inputs on the controller. I've put in a ticket with the company, who don't even offer an option for iOS10 on the operating system dropdown selector yet. I'll update with their...

iPhone 5S on iOS GM 10. Previous Bluetooth audio quality was fine. I am getting terrible quality audio when using Bluetooth in my car. This happens using Siri and while making a call. The audio is low and sounds almost "raspy" - like a cheap mono speaker over AM radio. I had to raise the...

With Apple pushing for a wireless audio future on their iPhones, one scenario holding them back for a (probably small) group of people is with their own Garageband app and similar apps. Garageband requires wired headphones to hear a track while recording a new track on top, in order to stay...

Since updating to iOS 10, Siri is now cut off when I use Apple Maps through my car's Bluetooth (not CarPlay, BTW). She'll go to say, for example, "Start at Smith Street," but only get through "Start at" and then stop. If I'm playing music or a podcast, it will pause for the full length of what...

Weird issue here. I have a Mazda CX-9 and when my iOS 10 iPhone connects to the Bluetooth to play audio I can't shuffle or repeat. Basically if I bring up the nownplaying card and hit the shuffle button, you see the list get shuffled and the button get toggled but only for a fraction of a second...

Hi all I've decided to create this post to hopefully impart some wisdom/experience onto you guys. A while back I broke the headphone jack on my iPhone 6 and was forced to go wireless as I didn't have a headphone jack BEFORE Apple made it cool. Since then I have upgraded to a 6S+ and although...

The iPhone 7 will feature Bluetooth 5. The new Bluetooth 5 quadruples range, doubles speed, and increases data broadcasting capacity by 800% over Bluetooth 4.0. The iPhone 4S was the first smartphone to feature Bluetooth 4.0 and the MacBook Air and Mac mini were the first computers to get the...

I've mouse/keyboard/headphones connected via BT to macbook pro 13 (2014). Everything works fine, until I wake mac from sleep. Once I wake it up from sleep, everything starts to stutter (OS X GUI, video, or audio I'm listening to, everything becomes choppy) - if I disconnect any out of 3 BT...

I don't know a lot about the internals of iMacs, but I had a question... I took my Late 2012 iMac into Apple Store for repair as I had lines on my monitor (not like the ones you can google, like grid lines/guide lines that you'd see in Illustrator/Photoshop and it turned out I had to have the...

Hello! I've noticed, in the Reminders App car-location-based Reminders (Getting in the car/Getting out of the car) are working with some bluetooth car receivers, that aren't CarPlay capable! (iPhone 6, iOS 9.3.5) :-) With my old car receiver Sony MEX BT 3700 U (in Germany, since 2009) it...

Hi all, I have a Macbook Air from 2014, and most of the time I do not have wi-fi, while using my Magic Mouse, or if Bluetooth is on. As soon as I turn Bluetooth off, everything loads quickly. Otherwise, it just tells me that Safari couldn't connect to the server. (Had similar issues with...

Hi everyone, Long time reader, first time poster, as they say. I decided to make an account because a lot of threads have helped me a great deal, or at the very least pointed me in the right direction. Now I can give back to the community, but I also have a question of my own :confused: One of...

All: I have a random problem with bluetooth in my vehicle since Apple released one of the their 9.xx releases in the spring. I will get into my car and the car will pair with the iPhone 6s plus. The car is a 2015 model with top of the line Navi from Honda. Randomly the initial outgoing call I...

I have the Sleep Cycle alarm app, but I usually just turn it off and go back to sleep. I want to put my iPhone on my dock across the room so I have to get up to turn it off, but it needs to be next to your bed for the app to function. Is there some sort of app that will allow me to use my old...

I am trying to simultaneously connect bluetooth headphones and a bluetooth heart rate monitor to my apple watch so that I can work out without carrying my phone. It seems to connect to both, but has trouble maintaining the connection. Apple support says the watch only supports one device at a...

Hello I just purchased a pair of Wireless beats 2 studio. I used them at a 6-hour train trip and I didn't have any problems, but today I woke up with a headache, which eventually went away after about half an hour. I also own a pair of Powerbeats 2 wireless, with which I didnt experience such...

Are any of you still having connection problems with Bluetooth headphones? I have a brand new pair of Sony MDR-XB950BT headphones and I keep getting multiple audio dropouts when using them. I pair them up and play music but as soon as I put the iPhone in my pocket I get random audio glitches...

Hi Forum I'm attempting to find a bluetooth option for playing my wedding music in a small to medium sized church. Only one power outlet is available and don't want to trail speaker wires so streaming the music folder via my iphone 6 seems more convenient with a trusted operator as some of the...

Guys, I use many HomeKit devices. Some of them are only Bluetooth connected - Elgato EVE weather, switch, power receptacle, August lock etc. Some are via wifi bridge as Philips Hue. I have 2 ATV4 and 1 ATV3 in my apartment , all of them are on and with the same iCloud account. Usually I have...
