Bluetooth Headset not working in safari?

my motorola h9 works great with itunes/quicktime, but when using it with Safari like watching a video in youtupe our listening to anything through safari i don't get any sound .
i did some recearch and found software called Airfoil that send the audio from Safari to the headset and it worked! BUT there is a couple seconds time difference between the sound and picture! so that didn't actually help!
I'm trying to figure what is the story behind Safari? am i using it in different computer
does it have something to do with the features of my bluetooth headset?
Any help from you guys would be VERY appreciated?

Late arrival. I posted re this topic about a year ago, to no avail. Then - 10.5.2 - the youtube, etc. files froze along with no audio via bluetooth, now (10.5.7) the video plays and only the audio stops!
This is not 'a Safari problem', it is a bluetooth/Mac/Flash problem that is ultimately only going to be sorted by Apple, I fear. And, I fear, it is not much of a priority for them while all their talent is still puzzling over the Java security problems...
You could try looking at this thread:

but nothing in it helped me, alas.

doesn't work with my headset (and probably works with none) either. Anybody know a hack that will allow changes to audio sampling rates offered in the Audio MIDI Setup app??
Or any other solution? A number of us would be very grateful!

Bluetooth Headset Not Working in Bootcamp/Windows XP

I have a Plantronics Bluetooth headset that works fine in OSX, and is paired successfully in Windows XP. For some reason though, Skype doesn't recognize it, and it is not visible in the sound control panel. The latest Macintosh Drivers disk seems to have updated the Bluetooth driver, and I thought all of those issues were resolved. Anyone know what the problem could be here?
Thanks.

Bluetooth headset not working with flash files

Just got a Plantronics Voyager 510 bluetooth headset. Works just fine, except when viewing clips at YouTube. Not only is there no sound, the clip freezes after a few seconds. I believe they are Adobe Flash. Now this is on my new late 2007 MacBook with Leopard.
So I figure I'll try the headset on my Intel 1.66 Mac Mine with Tiger 10.4.10. Same thing
Any ideas.

Apparently Apple cheaped out on the Bluetooth support in the Tiger OS X (or an official profile wasn't even available)....something to do with not having Stereo Headset support.
It is possible to circumvent it: http://blog.david.connolly.name/2007/06/stereo-bluetooth-profile-a2dp-on-mac-os. html However, as indicated on the top of that topic - it is outdated (and IMO too much effort).
In a nutshell - you're being quietly coaxed in to buying Leopard OS X - which does have the Stereo Bluetooth profile installed.
What I don't get is why Apple can't release to us a nice little patch for Tiger to give us the full use of our Bluetooth hardwares.

IPhone Bluetooth Headset Not Working Now

My Bluetooth Headset was working fine last night. I charged in completely over night, and when I went to use it on my handy dandy iPhone 3G, I could not hear anything. It showed on my phone as connected and I could hear the beeping when I pressed the button on the Bluetooth, but I could not hear the other person talking! My phone has the current update, 2.2.1, and I have never had this issue before!
If someone could please help me, I would greatly appreciate it!

You should try restoring your iPhone through iTunes. I hear restoring has helped in such situations. Please report back with any news.

Anyone know how to fix Bluetooth headset not working properly after iOS 8 update?

I have an iPhone 5S and I use a Plantronics PLT M20 model bluetooth headset. I am no longer able to answer calls by pressing the button on the headset, since updating to iOS 8. I also also cannot end calls by pressing the button on the headset. This only happened after iOS 8. The Apple Care rep stated that "this is most likely a problem with the bluetooth manufacturer and they need to update their firmware, so now it's just a waiting game until they do that". Is that correct? Anyone encountering this?

Hi - I'm a student with disabilities and rely heavily on accessibility features that make my life easier. For example, I use a Bluetooth headset to trying answer phone calls and use Siri… I especially use the "Raise to speak" option for accessing Siri. Since updating my iPhone five us and my iPad air, I've been scrambling to access the "raise to speak" option for Siri without success. When I called AppleCare, the representative stated I should have that option to enable in my settings. When I explained to her that the option is not showing, she wanted me to reset my phone to factory settings. When I told her I googled the issue and found that it may have been removed in iOS 8… She put me on hold, Came back and told me I was right.
What's worse is that that my Bluetooth headset is no longer working with my iPhone 5S. She stated that it may being I needed adjustment from the manufacturer of the headset– Plantronics. All I know is that the apple care representatives seem confused and I am extremely disappointed in this really impacts my use of Siri and my phone.
When I asked her to submit feedback to her supervisor or the powers that be… I was simply asked to submit feedback to the Apple.com website. While I understand Apple might read that feedback, I also recognize that they don't reply and I don't feel that is great support to someone like me who has a disability and needs a solution. The"Hey Siri" option is not working for me.
Does anyone have any workarounds for the "Raise to speak" problem or the Bluetooth problem? Specifically, the Bluetooth issue is when I try to hit the button on my Bluetooth headset to answer a call or end the call. It's a Plantronics PLT M20 model.

Follow-up to my earlier post that iPhone 6 Bluetooth not working correctly. I purchased a Jawbone MiniJambox to use as a speaker phone in my office. Everyone in our company thinks they are the best. However, it is experiencing the same issues as with all my other Bluetooth headsets. Everything works except cannot answer or hang up calls pushing the buttons on the Bluetooth devices. The Bluetooth patio speakers in our courtyard also have the same issue. However, my colleagues using iPhone 5 and 5s who did not update to iOS8 are using all Bluetooth devices without any issues. Apple says it is a problem with my Bluetooth device. Come on Apple.... This makes 7 different Bluetooth devices with different manufacturers. You cannot possibly believe the problem is with the Bluetooth devices when iOS7 works perfectly fine...
On another issue, my iPhone 5s worked perfectly fine in my vehicle entertainment center connected via USB. The vehicle entertainment center had complete control of my iPhone and iTunes. However, now I plug in my new iPhone 6 and it no longer communicates with my vehicle entertainment center. Again when I called Apple, they said my vehicle entertainment center needed a firmware update. Are you kidding me... That is a bunch of BS...!!!

Bluetooth headset not working with 2008 Macbook!

Hello,
I just got a new Macbook and love it!
But, the other day I tried out my Bluetooth headset and the A2DP headphone choice works great.
But when I change it to headset for use with skype I can hear the person but all they hear is weird repeating static. I listened to myself with skype call testing service and it sounds bad. I looked in preferences of sound and most of the sound bars are purple and moving as if
i am yelling into the microphone. I know it is not the headset for it works with my cellphone and eMac.
Anything I do to the headset doesn't solve this or even brake the pattern in the purple bars.
I turned off the headset when it was showing these bars and they kept going.
It is not the headset. The Macbook is capable of receiving files through Bluetooth so it is not the input of Bluetooth that is the problem.
Also, when I first started the microphone of the headset it was clear then after a couple seconds it started to drown out my voice then it was gone, replaced by shhhhhhchhh.
My headset is a Plantronics 590E.
Thanks,
MIBM

Yes, thank you.
I was recently on Vacation and scheduled a Genius Bar visit and they tested my headset with another Macbook and same thing. I am very mad at Apple after finding this out. I had a feeling it was drivers or something but obviously could not test seeing as I only have one computer running Leopard, eMac runs Tiger. I actually have a third party bluetooth dongle working with my eMac. It is an Iogear dongle and on the box it says all features work with Mac and then I plugged it in and was unable to turn on/off and couldn't use headsets, then after hours of research I found a forum and downloaded a Broadcom driver and voila! it worked. That is also why I wasn't sure if it was a driver problem or hardware.
If anyone needs a tutorial and the driver for a broadcom bluetooth USB dongle I would be happy to help.
Thanks,
MIBM

Bluetooth headset - not working

Hello,I have a bluetooth headset - Jabra Move Wireless. And I have a problem with Skype. Either mic works or speakers, but never both. When I go to Skype audiosetting and disable mic, then speakers work. But when I enable mic, the speakers stop working (but the other party can hear me). Can you please help me with this strange issue? My bluetooth drivers are up to date. My laptop is Asus R556LD and my system is Windows 8.1. I use skype for desktop.

Here is the solution:
As any Nokia headset, a lengthy push and hold of the power button sends the headset into pairing mode and the pairing code remains as (0000).

Plantronics 655 bluetooth headset not working with macbook pro

Anyone had problems getting their macbook pro to recognise the plantronics 655 bluetooth headset ?

Bluetooth issue when working with Safari but not other applications

I have tried two new bluetooth headsets (Motorola 9HD and Sony DR-BT100cx) that both can Pair with and work just fine with the local itunes application and any DVD I use. But these devices do not work with Safari. I tried going to Hulu, YouTube, etc and i can tell the bluetooth device is 'listening' because I can hear it click or wait for a signal. But I never hear anything. If i switch over to DVD or my Podcasts that are local, it works fine. If I go to bluetooth settings and select 'stop using headset' the MacBook speakers pick up right away.
Note: I am a brand new Mac user, so please disregard my OS version I have selected. I have no idea how to find my OS version, nor do I know how to install Firefox to see if it is simply a browser issue.
Thanks,
Jay

I have the same issue. I've tried 3 different btooth headsets, and they all react the same:
- music: ok
- skype: ok
- webcasts / video (safari or firefox): no sound, and video stops
HOWEVER: same system, same headset, using Internet Explorer in my windows xp VM: everything works.
Anyone know how to contact Apple and log this issue?

Bluetooth is not working with Windows 8.1 on U410 touch

Hello,
I have a Lenovo U410 touch, and i just upgraded to windows 8.1 though the store.
And the bluetooth is not working at all, it says that the PC is searching for Bluetooth devices. While everything was working great before.
I have updated all the drivers from the Lenovo websites and still nothing is working
I went to device manager and checked under bluetooth: Intel (R) Centrino Wireless Bluettoth 4.0 + High Speed. Microsoft Bluettoth Enumator, Microsoft Bluetooth LE enumarator all 3 are up to date.
Then I went to network connections (from the start) and i have a red cross under Bluettoth network connection 2 and says not connected.
My windows is also up to date
I really think gooing back to Windows 8 since i cannot listen to my music on my beatbox and connect to my phone and tablet,
Thank you for your help

hi erabbath,
Welcome to the Forums.
If you have the Intel Centrino N2230 Wireless + Bluetooth adapter, can you try to:
1. Navigate to the Control Panel (large icon view) > Devices and Printers and try to pair a bluetooth device (i.e. Bluetooth Headset) and observe if it gets detected under the device list.
2. If the Bluetooth Headset is listed but it's not working try toright click on it > choose Properties. On the bluetooth properties Window, go to the Services Tab and check all the appropriate bluetooth services.
Sample picture
Let me know your findings.

I recently upgraded from an iPhone 4s to an iPhone 5. I have a Motorola HX550 Bluetooth Headset which worked flawlessly with the iPhone 4s. However, since upgrading to the iPhone 5, I frequently lose audio when in the middle of a call. I am not certain whether it is a full disconnect or just an audio loss. The person on the other end reports still being able to hear me, however, I suppose they could hear me speaking over another source even if bluetooth disconnected. The loss of audio is always preceded by a quick shrill noise, so I can easily tell when it happens. All I have to do to fix the problem is to select Audio Source on the call screen, temporarily switch audio back to the iPhone, and then switch back to the headset, and then it starts working again.
Is is important to note that I am not the only one experiencing this issue:
This is a link to someone using the Motorola H19txt headset experiencing the same issue

If you go to the Plantronics website and look at the "Ratings and Reviews" on the Voyager Legend you will see the same issue reported:
http://www.plantronics.com/us/product/voyager-legend (next paragraph is taken from the review since there is no direct link to the review.
Really nice Headset unless you own an Iphone 5. I own several Plantronics headsets and have always loved the quality/ performance. This headset seems not to be compatible with the new Iphone 5. In the middle of a conversation it will lose all incoming audio. This leaves you trying to switch audio sources really fast in order not to lose your phone call. Ive tried 3 legend headsets and they all do the same thing. Hopefully this gets fixed soon because the headset is really nice
Since this issue appears to affect multiple headsets from multiple vendors, I think it is fair to conclude that it is an issue with the iPhone5 bluetooth itself.
I am posting this as a new discussion as I don't see any other posts specific to this iPhone 5 Bluetooth issue. I would have reported this as a problem to Apple, but don't seem to be able to find a way to do this on the web. Hopefully they are already aware, but if not, maybe they will see i here.

here is an interesting thing: take the iphone and set lock screen to never. Now make an email with siri--be sure to activate her with call button. get to the body and get some text in there. then just stop talking. LOCK SCREEN APPEARS!!!!!! and of course you draft is gone.
There does seem to be a work around for some--maybe all these issues. Don't use the call button--use the buttons on the phone.
Siri seems to behave properly with scenerio above---sans call button. She does not go to lock.

Bluetooth is not working in Iphone 4s

I am using Iphone 4s. Bluetooth is not working. it is not identifiying or identified by other phones / Laptop

That is correct. This has never been a feature of iphone/ipod/ipad.
Bluetooth is supported for stereo headsets/speakers, telephone handsfree devices/headsets, some keyboards, some peer-to-peer apps form the app store and internet tethering where provided by the carrier.
Other than this it will not connect to any other phones/computers/devices

My iPhone 4s bluetooth is not working

Dear Apple Customer ,
I m using iPhone 4s but my phone bluetooth is not working . If i bluetooth on after searching device long time.
Pls help me how to solve this problem .
Regards,
Viswa

What are you trying to connect to? iOS has BT profiles for connecting to keyboards, headsets, speakers, car systems. Through the Personal Hotspot settings on the iPhone, you can also connect to other devices to share an internet connection. Sharing files over BT is not a function that iOS devices support.
Please give more details about what your trying to do and what's happening when you try.
Best of luck.
