Why is my bluetooth speaker connected but sound only comes out of the computer speakers?

My bluetooth speaker (JBL Charge 2) is shown as "connected in the blu tooth section of the task bar. I have also gone to system preferences and the speakers are also shown to be connected and chosen as the main speakers. However, no sound comes out of the bluetooth speaker but rather the sounds still comes out of the computer. speakers. I have tried connecting, reconnecting, and restarting computer. The bluetooth speaker is also shown as connected in bluetooth preferences. What is wrong?

I have tried to connect and Jambox and have the same problem; bluetooth speakers are connected and chosen but sound comes out of computer speakers.

  • Sound only comes out from the right ear/head phone. :((

    My iTouch was working perfectly fine til it was connected to the school speaker for my dance. When I used it afterwards (with my headphones), the sound only came out from the right phone. I tried using my spare earphones and still no sound from the left. The headphones/earphones are working fine as I tested it with my laptop and mom's iPhone. So the real problem's with my iTouch!
    What do I do? I tried syncing it to iTunes, even resetting it... but nothing! HELP. :((

    If you connect your iPod with your computer, and if you can hear from both channels, that it is clearly something wrong with the earphone jack, there are few cases reported the dust in the earphone (metal parts?) causing the problem.

  • Bluetooth paired but sound still comes out of the iPhone

    I am able to pair it to my car and both the car & the iphone says it is connected. However, when I try to make a phone call, the sound does not come through the Bluetooth.

    Not that it helps, but I have experienced the same problem with my Bose BT1. It pairs; it connects, and yet when I try to use the earpiece to receive or make a call, the BT1 is not recognized by the phone app. This has got to be an iOS 5 problem, as there are many discussions all over here describing the problem in various scenarios.

  • Why does sound only come out of 1 speaker when I dock my iPod?

    My son's Ipod only plays sound out of I speaker. When I dock the ipod on his ihome radio or my sony radio, sound only comes out of the left speaker. When I put other ipods on the same docks i get sound out of both speakers. It is just this one ipod that won't produce sound out of both speakers, no matter what docking station I use.

    Likely it is a hardware issue for the iPod, you need to bring it for service

  • I have a iPad and I connect it to my tv through hdmi but would like the sound to come out through the headphone socket, can I make this happen

    I have a iPad and I connect it to my tv through hdmi but would like the sound to come out through the headphone socket, can I make this happen.

    Go to System Preferences>Sound>Output  and make sure that you selected the right output. I think if yo use HDMI you might not be abe to select another output.

  • Why is does audio only come out of the left speaker when I press the latency button....?!?!

    Hello
    I have a small problem which I hope someone can advise me on ......
    Everytine I press the Latecny button on Logic 9 the audio will stop coming out of the LEFT and RIGHT speakers and only come out of the LEFT speaker ?
    Audio sent out of DAW --------> Mixng Deck  ------> back into Soundcard via SPDIF (digital) on inputs 9/10
    I am sening al my sounds out of the computer to be summed on a mixing decks and then the 2 channles of audio from the deck is coming back into my soundcard as an digital a signle on INPUTS 9/10.
    Can anyone please advise ..........!?!

    Might want to read on what Low Latency mode does + why and when you should use it.
    It's basically only used in realtime monitorinr when recording and/or when recording softsynths.
    By reading the docs you should be able to figure out why the right side is being muted.
    http://documentation.apple.com/en/logicpro/usermanual/index.html#chapter=41%26se ction=2%26tasks=true
    Be sure software monitoring is Off when recording the summed input.

  • IPad mini, the sound wont come out through the earphones the 2nd tym around,... other than the time consuming hard reset, any solution guys ...please?

    i saw there is a new iOS version for the iPad mini, could this new version be a solution to the problem in question, i'm always on the move thats why i havent updated yet, but if the update solves the problem i will update asap.

    Jimhdk I meant... Say I just did a hard reset the sound comes out of the earphones upon inserting them into the jack but should I remove them from the jack for any reason the sound will continue to come out of the main speakers after re-insertion of the earphones. The sound will continue to come out of the main speakers until I hard reset again.
    Demo, so it's not necessary for me to update for my wifi is bug-less.

  • I have the latest itunes and I've just purchased a season from a series but I cannot the episodes even though they seem to be downloaded. I'm going to the purchased section find the episode and pre play but it only comes up with the 30 sec trailer.

    I have the latest itunes and I've just purchased a TV series but I cannot watch the episodes even though they seem to be downloaded. I'm going to the purchased section find the episode and press play but it only comes up with the 30 sec trailer rather than the full trailer.. any suggestions?

    Thanks for that. Much more constructive than the last comment. It's only the restriction code I can't recall, not the access passcode. So I can currently access the device, just not age restricted content. Does that's make a difference? I also wondered if anyone knew how many attempts you get to try to get it right. Now tried 21 times and so far nothing bad has happened but I am concerned I'll eventually be completely locked out of the device. That doesn't seem in the spirit of things though. Surely it's foreseeable that a child could repeatedly try to guess the code so I can't see that it would be right to lock the device down completely in that circumstance, particularly if the access code is being typed in correctly every time.
    Thanks

  • Sound only come out one earphone.

    Hello,
    The sound in my iPod only comes out the left speaker/headphone. If I jiggle the connection to the iPod a bit it will fix it but if I don't continue you to hold it it will go back to just coming of the left earphone/speaker. It is not the headphones because it does it on any headphones and in the car. Anyone know how to fix this? Thanks.

    You might want to send your iPod in for service (if your iPod is under warranty).
    You can arrange an iPod service request online here:

  • Sound output, comes out headphones AND internal speakers

    I've had my refurbished PBG4 1.33 GHz for a few months and when I plug in headphones, the sound comes out the headphones AND the internal speakers of the laptop. I've tried messing w/ the System Prefs/Output with no luck whatsoever. Any suggestions, or anybody else have this problem at all? I've read threads here that have been similar but not quite this particular problem. I need the sound to ONLY come through the headphones when they are plugged in. Kinda defeats the purpose if sound still comes out the laptop internal speakers w/ headphones plugged in.

    GO to System Preferences and open "sound".
    In "Output" make sure you have selected "headphones" as the source.
    In "Input" make sure you have selected "line in"
    Also make sure your headphones are plugged into the correct socket. There are two. The one you should be using is the one nearest the front of the computer.

  • [SOLVED] Sound will come out of the speakers, but not the headphones.

    So, the headphones won't play any sound (they work with my phone, not on my laptop) when plugged in. 
    When the headphones are plugged into the jack, the speakers mute, so I know that the laptop is registering that they got plugged in, but still no sound comes out.

  • Upgraded to lion now my wi-fi loses connection after sleep mode, it still shows as connected but does not go out to the internet. Please help

    After I upgraded to lion I have been having constant issue with my wi-fi after sleep mode. I close the lid and when I reopen I open safari and cannot connect to the internet. Wi-fi is on and I am connected to my router, but it doesnt seem to be on the internet. Now how I resolve this issue is turn of the wi-fi and turning it back on, then i am back on the net. this is mos-def a bug i have never had that problem with snow leopard. Please assist or provide hot-fix

    I have the same issue and have to cycle the wireless modem on the laptop. Doesn't matter if I'm on a preferred netowrk or no, or if I stay on the same network or move. I come out of sleep, I have to cycle the modem.
    It's not life threatening, or anything, but it's a hassle. I didn't have the issue with Snow Leopard.
