I just got my BMR but it keeps on disconnecting from my Iphone 4s (with in a 5 foot range). Do I have to pair it everytime i play music?

every time I use this device i have to take it off my speaker and place back on and pair it again. It's really annoying and it always says that it is not connected enough though it's already on my speaker. So yes unfortunately you will have to pair it every time you use it.

disconnect at 5 ft range is not reasonable. the unit may be defective unless the bluetooth adapter is blocked by the speaker itself or big/thick object in front of speaker. Please email amazon or bentsai01@msn.com for replacement. Thanks!

If it is disconnecting on its own in the middle of use, I think there is a problem with the device but if you are turning it off and then reconnecting later, yes, I need to reconnect using my iPhone bluetooth settings.

Yes i had to pair it each time but then after a few uses it stopped working and we sent it back. But when it did work it did have a range of 20 to 25 feet. However I will not purchase another

This just arrived, and when I plug in my 4S it says "This accessory is not supported by iPhone." Am I doing something wrong? The radio works through the speakers, but not my iPhone. Help!

The instructions in the manual are a bit vague so I can see how it's confusing. Try this: 1. Turn off Bluetooth on your phone. 2. Turn off the speaker. 3. Go to the Bluetooth section in Settings on your phone; don't turn on Bluetooth via the control center (which you may not even have on an iPhone 3). 4. Turn on the speaker (switch on bottom); the blue LED sbove the little Bluetooth symbol should be flashing. 5. Turn on Bluetooth on your phone. 6. "Jam Classic" (or similar name) should appear as a pairing device under "Devices" on your phone; tap to select; you should hear a chime from the speaker letting you know it's connected and the word "Connected" should appear next to Jam Classic (or whatever) on you phone. 7. Voila, you're paired. 8. Always turn on the speaker first and then the Bluetooth on the phone to pair in the future (at least that's what I have to do); no tapping to select the speaker necessary once your phone "knows" your speaker. If this doesn't help (it worked for me) then I'm not sure what you can do.

make shure your jam is charged turn jam on by pressing the button under you will get a notice saying your jam is ready to pair then turn your Bluetooth on your iPhone it will scan for devices I nce you see your jam hit pair and it should pair if it ask for password hit 4 zero's and that should do it i hope it works if not most likely is a bad unit hope not. bye

That is typical. I can't connect one phone via Bluetooth if another that was last connected is nearby and on. I just shut off one. Same withe my Bose sound link and JBL Bluetooth speakers.

I didn't have any problem pairing them with my iphone 4s. Its been a year or so since I did it, so I really don't remember the steps. I just followed the instructions and it worked. Sorry I can't be of more help. Perhaps you got a defective set?

If you are connected to this device with your iPhone, then connect to your headset to your iPhone, it will disconnect this device. You can only connect to one bluetooth device at a time.

Turn them both off, Bluetooth only on iPhone, then turn them on again. Should work. If not they will replace it

I cannot speak for every device or every Bluetooth stack implementation. Here is what I know from my own devices. I can connect my phone to both my standard Bluetooth headset I use while driving (Plantronics Voyager Legend) and my workout headset (Plantronics BackBeat FIT) at the same time. Music will only play out of the one I connected last. If the sound is coming out of my Legend, I can press a button on the FIT and have it transferred to the FIT, but it will not play out of both the FIT and the Legend, and I cannot switch back from the FIT to the Legend (should I want to) without turning off the FIT. I am sure this has something to do with the Bluetooth profiles for each device, but I am not a Bluetooth specialist, so I cannot provide any further details. I do not have any Bluetooth speakers (like a Jambox or a Pill or anything like that) so I do not know how it works in combination with those kinds of devices. Additionally, I do not have any other phones (besides my iPhone) to test this with. Those are my results. Your mileage may vary.

I just got these and had the same question, because my iPhone, iPad and Mac were always connecting to it so quickly that I couldn't pair it to the device I wanted. Figured it out, without having to do anything with the previous device. All you have to do is turn the headphones off (unless they are already off). Then hold down the power button and KEEP HOLDING IT even when the red/blue lights flash. Then while holding the power button still, select it on the device you want to use now. It connects to that device and you can let go of the button. Then repeat the process to pair it with the other device.

You might want to make sure you don't have your iphone trying to connect to another Bluetooth device that it once connected to. Mine takes a little bit to connect to my devices but it still works. I think they're all that way, just be patient.

I connect easily through bluetooth with my iphone. Just go to settings and bluetooth 'on', then select your music to 'play'...it should play over the headset now. Hope that helps!

I'm pretty sure it was easy to pair. I think I just held down the main power button until the light flashed successively, then went to Bluetooth settings on the iPhone and selected the device corresponding to the headphones. The phone should then indicate that it is paired. After that point, it is helpful to have the headphones on your head as you turn them on or off. To turn them on or off, you simply hold the power button until the tone is heard, then release. Once the phone has been paired with the headset, you should only have to power up the headset and the phone will automatically remember the pairing.

Ours says waiting for connection and then we turn the Bluetooth on the iPod and it connects. If Bluetooth was already on then it disconnects after a few seconds. We didn't have to do anything special. I hope this helps :)

I had a similar problem my daughter and I had both paired our iPhones to the JBL speaker and what we had to do was turn off one So the other could connect or just disable Bluetooth for the one that you do not want to stream music from. Try that it may help

Idk maybe if your phone has Bluetooth, but if you do you use it, I say keep it synced at all times or it might never, NEVER connect again. That's what happened with my iPod 4th gen

I've had no problem with the Bluetooth staying connected. Only problem I've had is the speaker volume is very low when connected with another helmet.
