Hi Sarah, Do you mean that you went to System Preferences > Bluetooth to find and pair your iPhone? I may have had to do that for the very first version release of Type2Phone I tried (would have to search the list archives, but I remember that the initial pairing was the tricky bit, and I had to read someone's blog post about how he initially se up pairing.). I read that a few users who were having difficulty using Type2Phone under iOS 7, so I wasn't sure if that was why you had difficulties.
Good to know you got this working. Cheers, Esther On Dec 14, 2013, at 9:48 AM, Sarah k Alawami wrote: > Ok. I think I solved it.
