Di2 D-fly not showing up on Bluetooth enabled tablet?

I finally got my edge 520 to register the d-fly unit. But the E-tube app on the iPad will not register the D-fly unit either in system preferences under Bluetooth or the e-tube app. I've enabled the Bluetooth on the junction A box on the bike according to instructions, yet still no connectivity with Bluetooth on the iPad. What am I doing wrong, if anything?

Can I ask, where you purchased your Bluetooth D-fly from? Shimano told me a couple days ago they will be out soon but they weren't available yet. Thanks

Is this the new D-fly or the prior one. The old one is ANT+ only. The new one, supposedly coming end of the year, is bluetooth and ANT+. I'm in for one at my LBS but it's apparently not out yet. Are you *sure* you have the new one?

The difference is that the new D-fly has a chip in it that can talk ANT+ and Bluetooth the old one is/was ANT+ only. So if you did not get the new D-fly unit, you'd be able to talk to the 520 but would not be able to talk to the iPad/iphone via bluetooth.

The 520 is talking to it via ANT+, I'm sure.
