Found this on Apple Support Communities. It did work although I had to do it a couple of times to pair with the 150. I don’t get what is going on here but it smells like the problem is Apple’s not Dual’s. Is there any data to suggest that an upgrade to IOS 7 might be more user friendly? I realize that it’s pretty early to know how IOS 7 is going to act but thought I’d ask.

Good News!

 

Today I received an email from Dual which simply fixed the problem with the external bluetooth gps receiver!

 

Step-by-step instruction:

1. Turn bluetooth-device off

2. On iOS device go to Settings->Bluetooth and find your external gps device, tap on the blue arrow, than tap on “Forget this device”

3. Close all applications

4. Hold power-off-button an swipe to shut down your iOS device

5. Turn it on again

6. Turn on your external Bluetooth GPS-receiver

7. Go to Settings->Bluetooth find your gps-receiver an tap on it to pair

8. Here we go! GPS-receiving should work again!

 

Thanks you guys at Dual!

Oh, one more thing. I loaded MotionX before I tried Pocket Earth. That worked with my GPS device but the app blows in my opinion. Anyway, I am pretty sure that the GPS and the Ipod are working together in a reasonable fashion. Just no communication with Pocket Earth. 🙁
