Bluetooth headphones $50... logitech and it works

Okay, i have been wanting to cut the wire from the iPod for a long time. Well, bluetooth seemed the way to go. I have been searching high and low. Logitech's bluetooth headphones seemed the way to go, but why pay $129 for the black pair... it works with any MP3 player... Logitech just dropped the price for the original pair made for the iPod to $99... well i thought i give it a try and when i opened the box, i saw it came witha 2 inch extension that did away with the little prong to control the advance and rewind of the songs, but the volume still worked...
COMPUSA had these on sale for $99 with a $50 rebate... Well needless to say this is just the ticket...
Yes the adapter dangles a bit, but the ipod will sit in my golfbag or book bag and i don't have to worry about any more wires... just battery charges..
overall, a happy camper

Ipod doesn't work on speakers but headphones are fine and speaker works with iPhone. Possible connector issue? Any thoughts on how I can get the fixed?

VN7-791G all bluetooth devices like Logitech mouse not working after Windows 10 upgrade

After upgrading to Windows 10 on my 2 month old Acer VN7-791G, my Logitech bluetooth mouse could not pair, my bluetooth speakers could not pair and neither could by Nexus 7. All these devices were working fine on Win 8.1 earlier. Under Device Manager, only the generic Windows Bluetooth, Microsoft Bluetooth Enumerator and LE Enumerator drivers were showing (dated 21/6/2006). Under Network adapters, the driver showing was the Qualcomm Atheros QCA64x4 ver 10.0.0.62 dated 18/5/2015. I checked that this model is indeed compatible under ACER's website for Windows 10. I have also been checking the ACER drivers for Win 10 for this model but there are no new updated ones for Bluetooth. I downloaded the Win 8.1 ones and installed them but they still would not work (the Microsoft ones are still showing under Device Manager). I had to actually downgrade back to 8.1 a few days ago due to this issue but thought I would try to update to Windows 10 again hoping it would work but still no luck. I had googled but can't seem to find a solution and suspect that I need an updated bluetooth driver for Windows 10 from Acer or Broadcom. The Atheros website do not have any Windows 10 bluetooth drivers as well. I may have to downgrade again and try again in a few months time unless someone could please point me in the right direction. Thank you.

Yay! Success at last! Well, I had to resort to drastic measures which I was dreading and delaying. Basically, I rolled back to Windows 8.1 Then Reset PC to Factory Setting. This wiped out all data and applications/programs After getting back to default Windows 8.1, I tried pairing my bluetooth mouse and it worked I then immediately installed Windows 10 (from ISO file downloaded earlier) off a USB stick I chose the option for a clean install (this doesn't load any of the ACER bloatware) Once logging into Windows 10,I went into Device Manager and uninstalled all Bluetooth drivers Then I ran the setup for the Windows 8.1 Atheros bluetooth drivers as suggested - "LITE-ON Bluetooth_M 3rd WiFi 2x2 AC+ BT M.2 QCA NFA344_3.0.0.373_W81x64" I tried pairing my mouse and Nexus 7 and it works!!! For reference, here is my setup under Windows 10 after successfully pairing bluetooth devices. btw, interesting to see that the event log still reports some error about further installation just like earlier - probably indicates that the Win 8.1 Acer drivers are not 100% compatible yet.

Bluetooth headphones: intermittent cutting and out

When using bluetooth headphones with my g5 (OSx 10.5.8) and listening to my iTunes library the sounds cuts in and out regularly through out the songs.
I am only a couple of feet away from the computer, sitting at my desk. This is not happening with my iPhone 4s. Does any one have any experience and suggestions for this?
Thanks

I'm not sure what the problem is to be honest. I just know I wold love Apple to fix this issue. I've tried turning off the Wi-Fi on my unit and this issue still exist. I was thinking since it's a BT 2.0 and my headphones specs are BT 2.1 + EDR. I'm not sure, and would love for someone to help me fix this issue. I'm on the verge of returning my headphones and purchase the Jaybird Headphones.

My Motorola S9-HD bluetooth headphones sound choppy and sometimes change the pitch of the song that I play on my MacBook Pro, how can I solve this?

I have been using this on my iPod touch and my iPod Classic and they have worked fine without any of these problems. But when I connected it to my Mac it took a couple of trys to play it and now it sounds choppy eve though I sit right beside it, it also like i said above changes the pitch of the songs that i play.

I gwet the same problem wit my pair, especailly when I'm running. If the phone is in my pocket it can cut out quite frequently during my runs.
To be honest I get this with my 3GS and I got it with another headset on my 3. iOS4.0.1 hasn't fixed it for me either
I'd assumed it was a problem with the location in my pocket. I can have it on my desk at work and walk into anotehr room 30 or 40ft away with no problems with my headphones so it does seem odd it can't cope with going through my body at 2 to 3ft.
I've just always lived with it, but glad to hear you think it could be a s/w glitch as that gives me hope

Has anyone found bluetooth headphones that successfully pair with Apple Watch (not Beats)

I've been trying to pair the Apple Watch with a few different bluetooth headphones including LG and Kinivo without success. Not really interested in buying another set of bluetooth headphones or dropping $200 on them. Any one have success pairing Apple Watch with any bluetooth device?

I have the Jaybird Bluebuds X and while I did get them to pair with the Watch, it required me to tell my iPhone 6 to forget the device. Normally I have it paired in Bluetooth settings to both my iPad Mini and iPhone, and while it attempt to pair with the last paired device, just going into Bluetooth Settings and tapping connect will switch device.
But apparently that won't work with the Watch - as I said I had to tell the iPhone to forget this device first.
But what annoyed me even more was after getting it to pair with the Watch, when I attempted to play music using the Glances music app, the music played through the iPhone speaker. Sort of understand this as I don't have any music synced to my Watch and generally have the Bluebuds paired directly to the iPhone.
Not sure if I did something wrong - might get around to playing around with it again.

Bluetooth headphones in 8.1 won't switch between laptop and headphones

can set speakers or headhones as default but won't swich back and forth when push headphone on off button worked perfect on old laptop with win7 now running win 8.1 on hp 13 split x2
turns off headphones totally (need t factory reset) and shuts off music playing until restart

Hi zimmetp,
If I understand correctly you have paired a Bluetooth headphone to your notebook and it works fine. The problem arises when you go back to your regular notebook speakers and/or headphones and the sound doesn't work.
Are you turning off the Bluetooth when you try to go back to regular sound? If the computer still sees a connection to the Bluetooth headphones and they are set to default then it will continue to use those and not the regular ones.
What is your product number?

Should my iPhone 1 (iOS 3.1.3) with Bluetooth 2.0 (Handset HSP?) work with wireless earbuds with BT 4.0 and the Headset (and Handsfree, A2DP, AVRCP) protocol? They pair and connect; status bar looks good. But audio always comes out the speaker. Thx.

Should my iPhone 1 (iOS 3.1.3) with Bluetooth 2.0 (Handset HSP?) work with wireless earbuds with BT 4.0 and the Headset (and Handsfree, A2DP, AVRCP) protocol? They pair and connect as expected (with a PIN); status bar looks good and shows Bluetooth active, and I even see the iPhone displays the battery levels of the wireless earbuds. But audio always comes out the speaker. (If I plug in wired headphones into the headphone jack then audio comes into the wired headphones, as expected.) I have rebooted the iPhone; I have had it forget about the wireless earbuds, and repaired and reconnected; I have reset all network settings. Thx in advance.
PS: I understand that more recent versions of iOS have a way to choose where audio output goes (speaker, headphone jack, Bluetooth device). Does this older version of iOS? I could not find an option or setting.

I've noticed this lately as well, with my iPhone 4. I couldn't confidently pin it directly on any particular iOS update, but my iPhone used to automatically connect up via Bluetooth with my Prius's handsfree feature, and now it doesn't. I work with a CE-based device at my job, with Bluetooth capability, and I used to test out that feature by having it discover my iPhone. This no longer works either.
What I have found (not really a solution, but it does work and may be a clue for Apple) is that if I simply go to the Settings app then the General -> Bluetooth screen and let it sit there, it will pair right up with my car within a few seconds. Bluetooth is always on, and always says "Now Discoverable" at the bottom of the settings screen.

I use a 2003 FW800 MDD desktop, with dual 1.25 GHz processors, and OS10.4.11, and with native Bluetooth card, won't recognize a newer Bluetooth Headphone set as an Input or Output device in System Preferences

I use a Mac 2003 FW800 MDD desktop with dual 1.25 GHz processors, 2 GB memory, and a native Bluetooth card installed. I use OS10.4.11. The FW800 was the only MDD that could use Bluetooth natively, as an optional installation. I use the installed Bluetooth to run an Apple Aluminum Keyboard, and would like to use it with a new (2010) Samsung SBH-600 Bluetooth Headphone set, but, although the set will pair with the computer, and is recognized in both the System Profiler, and the Bluetooth section of System Preferences, it is not recognized in the Sound preferences section of System Preferences as either an Input or Output device. Only the installed external Apple speakers are recognized. I'd like to know if there is anything that can be done to make the Bluetooth system installed work with these headphones - either something that can be changed in the computer settings, or an added external Bluetooth device with different Bluetooth capabilities.

It it may be that you are running either an outdated BT software or the firmware of the card is not up to date.
What version is your BT software? Is it later than 1.5?
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1209
Firmware:
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL354
Along with the firmware, it is likely that the headphones require a later BT revision than you are running. The headphones need rev.2.
You may need to move to Leopard for support.
http://support.apple.com/kb/DL889
It also may be that headphone support is limited to iChat or the like in Tiger.....
If you go to a USB BT dongle, D-Link often gets the nod as having native compatibility in OS X.

Bluetooth headphones not working after ios6 update

I have the RF-MAB2 Rocketfish headphones. I also have an Iphone 3gs.
Both are running their latest firmware releases. After updating the iphone to IOS6 the bluetooth headphone no longer would work.
It showed paried with the iphone but music and other apps would not play any sound through the headphones.
I had to go onto the iphone, forget the device and readd it. This has resolved the issues.

I am talking about the wired headphone which received with the phone.
The problem is after the upgrade to ios6 the voice is only coming from one side ( right side ) of the headphone while listening to music.
However if I use apps like Viber, WhatsApp I can hear voice from both the side of the headphone.

Bluetooth headphones don't work with Macbook pro Retina, but they do with iMac. Why???

I AM NOT AN EXPERT. I AM MAKING ASSUMPTIONS. My issue, tech spec's and assumptions are listed below.
MY ISSUE:
My Rocketfish headphones work perfectly with my iMac but not with my Macbook Pro Retina.
The Macbook Pro does recognize the device but when I try to connect, it gives me the following error message:
"The device does not have the necessary services".
TECH SPEC
iMac has OS X 10.7.5
Macbook Pro Retina has OS X 10.8.2
MY ASSUMPTION
If I upgrade to 10.8.2 I will not be able to use the headphones.
Or
The new Macbook Pro's are only functional with bluetooth headphones that have certain specs.

Bluetooth keybord and trackpad work separately, but not together

Hi Everyone, I just bought an apple wireless keyboard and magic trackpad. The both connect to bluetooth and work fine, if used separately. But if you connect both at the same time, the keyboard works, but the trackpad doesn't. As soon as you disconnect the keyboard, the trackpad works great, until you try to reconnect the keyboard. I've removed and added both several times, rebooted, etc, but no luck. Any ideas?

I've tried that, but neither the smc or pram reset worked... I know the keyboard and trackpad work (as they work on my mbp together) and the bluetooth seems to work ok (works with bluetooth headphones and either keyboard or trackpad), but I can't get the keyboard and trackpad to work together still...

I would like to connect both my iphone and ipod to my bluetooth headphones at the same time. Is there anything that I can buy to accomplish this

I am trying to connect both my ipod touch 5h gen and also my iphone 5c to my bluetooth headphones at the same time. I have been told because of the way the operating system works this is not possible. I used to be able to do this on my old non apple handset.
The reason I would like to do this is because when I am listening to my ipod and have my phone in my pocket it is not connected to bluetooth and I am missing important phone calls some of which are business calls.
Is there any type of device that i can get from apple to allow this to work.
Regards
Bodi

The iOS implementation of the Bluetooth Protocol does not permit use of a Bluetooth device with more than one source at a time.

Backbeat 903 Bluetooth Headphones and iOS4

I have a pair of Backbeat 903 headphones (originally from Altec Lansing, now Plantronics) that I love, and they've worked great with my iPhone 3Gs for 6 months.
I just upgraded to iOS4 on the iPhone, and I found that the Play/Pause toggle button on the headphones no longer works correctly. If the music is already paused, it does nothing. If the music is playing, the button makes the audio cut out for a few seconds while the track keeps playing, then the audio comes back in after a few seconds.
I wondered if something had happened to the Backbeat's button, so I looked into exchanging it under warranty. Before sending it, though, I purchased a new pair. I just got the new pair and they are doing the same thing, which means this is probably an iPhone software issue or Bluetooth issue.
Anyone else having this problem? Any suggestions?

I'm relieved -- I thought I had done a reset before, but I guess I didn't follow all the way through.
My bluetooth issue was fixed by holding down the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons at the same time, waiting through the power down screen, blackout, and finally the silver Apple logo.
When I repaired with the bluetooth headphones, the play/pause toggle switch worked as expected.
