Bluetooth not syncing

Post by atf » Mon Apr 19, 2010 1:48 pm

I just bought a new iPad for our HS team and iScore for the iPad. I personally use iScore for the iTouch and we are using the most recent version of both licences. I tried to use the Bluetooth Data Sharing option to transfer some data to the iPad and it did not work. I set the iPad to "Get via Bluetooth" and set my iTouch to "Send via Bluetooth". The devices were within 2-12 inches of each other and could not connect and were basically stuck in "Looking for other iPhones or iPod touches. Is this an iscore problem or an Apple problem? Are you aware of this problem?

You can't sync between the iPad program and the iPhone/iPod Touch program via Bluetooth, only via the admin site. Bluetooth only works between like programs (iPhone version/iPhone version and iPad/iPad version). This is because of the Apple Bluetooth framework that only allows the exact same program to talk to another copy via Bluetooth.

You will need to sync via the Admin web sites.

jcbeckman got it right... here is a link to some FAQ on the Data Sharing:

Syncing through the Admin Website is very easy, but it does require having an internet connection.

We will continue looking for ways to sync an iPad with an iPod/iPhone without requiring an internet connection for a future release.
