I have just bought an iPhone (doing this post on it now!) but I can't find my iPhone when I search for Bluetooth devices. Bluetooth is definitely switched on on my phone and my f900 finds other phones but not my iPhone. Any ideas please?
Connecting iPhone via bluetooth
No big help, my 1st gen iPhone works fine with my 90BT. Perhaps try tunring on the iPhone Bluetooth after your 900 is up and running. It may not notice if the phone is already there when you have it scan to pair with new devices. I don't remember doing anything special in particular to get mine to pair the first time. Now it just does it whenever I get into the car when it recognises the phone. As I recall, you do have to tell the iPhone to allow the pairing. My 90 is running the Pioneer 3.0 software.
There's not any reason you won't have the iphone connect via BT, it works reliably for most of us.
However you normally make one device discoverable, and have the other hunt for it, if it's not working for you whichever way you're currently using, swap it, so instead of having the AVIC look for the iphone, have the iphone look for the AVIC, or vice versa.
Even if Bluetooth is turned on, you need to have the phone on the Bluetooth page while the pairing is happening. With out 910 it failed the first time for both my 3gs and my wifes 2g. But the second try worked for both.
My iPhone is a 3gs. I have tried searching for other items with my iPhone when Bluetooth is onanfit doesn't find them. I am running version2.9 on my f900 but not sure what version Bluetooth I am running
Managed to sort it, with bluetooth switched off on the phone, I started the F900 to search for devices , while it was doing this I switched bluetooth on on my iphone and it found it and paired together fine.
Thanks for your help!
