Question

Can I use Bluetooth for transferring songs or images?

Community Answer

Yes, but you can only transfer songs or images between two iPhones. If you want to transfer files between an iPhone and an Android, you will need to download some apps to help you transfer the files.

Question

What do I do if it says connection unsuccessful?

Community Answer

Make sure airplane mode is turned off and that the Wi-Fi is on. Wait a few minutes and try pairing it again. Don't keep pushing the button for that will mess it up and might make it load longer.

Question

My iPhone 5S connects to the car, but the phone book display has stopped showing. My wife's 4S still works, so I know the car system is okay. What settings on the 5S do I need to adjust to make it display properly?

Community Answer

You need to go to the menu and reconnect with bluetooth. Press the name of the device, and switch the switches in the menu on your phone.

Question

What should I do if my speaker disconnects from my iPhone when I walk away?

Community Answer

Bluetooth can only operate when the phone is in a certain range of the device. The best thing to do is to leave your phone in the room or close to the speaker; otherwise, the device will not pick up your phone's bluetooth.

My wireless headset paired beautifully with my iPhone and then just disappeared. Now the headphones won't pair. What should I do?

Turn off both devices. Or, simply read the directions to the pairing button for the headset.

Question

Why does my phone never find my car's Bluetooth to connect after I told my iPhone to forget the device? I have tried to reset and nothing has worked.

Community Answer

Your phone's Bluetooth signal goes into a standby mode after a few minutes of no activity. Try to reset or turn it off, and then turn on both Bluetooth signals at the same time, look for your vehicle's signal in your phone, and pair it. This should work. Make sure the Bluetooth function is enabled on both.

Question

Why isn't my iPhone finding my TDK A33 speaker?

Community Answer

Turn your Bluetooth off and on again on your iPhone. When you turn on the speaker, it should beep once and pop up on nearby Bluetooth connections. Press connect, and job done.
