Bluetooth Headphones to listen to Sirius Radio through MacBook Pro

I want to buy headphones so I can listen to Sirius through Safari wirelessly. Too much to ask?
Please let me know if there are headphones out there that will allow this.
I called Apple about 6 mos ago and they didn't help me much.
I REALLY WANT TO BUY A PAIR IF I ONLY KNEW WHICH ONES WOULD WORK!
I have the newest MacBook Pro with Leopard... Thanks!

I was having more or less the same problem. A few times I could hear the music from the computer, but every time I paused the music it was hard to get it working again.
This is what I did, and it seems to be working:
1) Delete the DS980 headset as bluetooth device.
2) Reset the headset following the instructions on the manual (1. On/Off key for 5 seconds and then 2. Press and hold the On/Off key and the call handling key simultaneously for 5 seconds.)
3) Pair the headset again with the computer, but this time I only selected the headphones service (and uncheck the headset service).
4) After that I click on the Bluetooth Status on the Menu Bar, and then go to HBH-DS980, and select "use headphones". (I think this is the important part, but before resetting the headset this didn't work all the times)
And now I can hear the music and other sounds from the computer. I hope this helps.
I think next time I may get the iSkin Cerulean F1 + TX.

  • How do I listen to Sirius XM on MacBook Pro?

    Hello,
    I recently bought my first MacBook Pro and to be honest this is my first Mac-anything outside of an iPhone. I'm trying to listen to Sirius via Safari and I keep getting a "you need to download Flash" message in the browser. I've searched the App Store for a solution and have not found one.
    Can someone please guide me here?
    Thanks!
    -DC

    Flash is from Adobe. You get it from them.
    But I suggest you get Google Chrome as Safari is tied into the OS and sometime it does thing that aren't to user friendly.

  • HT1349 Can I use headphones to listen to Pandora radio without it being broadcast through the speakers?

    I tried to listen to Pandora radio through the headphones,  without music being broadcast through  the speakers.  Have not been able to do this and want to know if it is possible and how to listen this way.

    Yes, listening to Pandora through headphones is no different than listing to any other music/audio through headphones.  When you plug them in your speaker should automatically turn off.  Perhaps there is something wrong with your headphone sensor; try blowing on the opening to see if there is dust/debris getting in the way of its operation.  Sometimes plugging and unplugging your headphone jack multiple times will clear it as well.  If the problem persists take your phone to the Apple store and have them take a look at it.  It should still be under warranty.

    all i have is the internal mic option, can anyone help?
    thanks

    You should also ask this in the MacBook Pro forum. This is the forum for the white and black plastic MacBooks that were discontinued in 2010. You should also post this question there to increase your chances of getting an answer.

  • I have a pair of bluetooth headphones, but they wont connect to my Macbook air (Original 2008)

    I don't know what the brand name of the headphones are, but I know they are NV-02285 bluetooth connecting headphones. They connect to both my iPhone and Macbook Air fine, the only issue is when they do connect to my Macbook, it tells me they are working together. However after a couple of minutes hey disconnect, and then I have to use the setup to connect them again. The headphones also won't do anything after connected, I will play music after i have selected to use them as an audio device, but nothing happens, I still hear sound coming only from my Macbook. If anybody has any kind of information I can use to try to fix this issue, that would be so very much appreciated, thanks!

    This doesn't work for Soen Transit speakers. My MacBook pro (mid2010) running Yosemite has never found the speakers. I'm considering returning them to Apple. Also chances of it discoing my new iPad Air is 50/50. Any ideas?

  • Large "Now Playing" Art for Radio on MacBook Pro?

    On my iPad, iTunes radio goes right to a large "now playing-style" screen once a channel is selected, where it shows the art of the album playing, centered and large.
    Can't seem to make this happen on my new MacBook Pro. Am I overlooking an easy preference or view setting?

    After several more tests I’ve arrived at a solution.
    There seems to be a random element in Boot Camp’s installation process that creates an IRQ resource conflict in Windows. The BSOD I was getting indicated that “IRQL not less than or equal to” and a BCM.sys file was responsible for the conflict. This file is related to the Broadcom Ethernet driver.
    Reverting back to Boot Camp 2.1 actually made Counter Strike crash even sooner, but suggested to me that Boot Camp drivers were responsible. I performed a complete uninstall and reinstalled to Boot Camp 3.0. Hours of game play later and no crashes or BSOD.
    If a complete uninstall and reinstall doesn’t fix it for you the first time, try it again. I think it just has to “randomly” assign the IRQ correctly. Manually assigning the IRQ probably won’t work as Windows apparently cannot detect the conflicts until it fails.
    Direct X 10 is not responsible for the problem. I tested this by running CSS in 9.0c mode via an advanced start command and it still crashed. Oh, and I also discovered that Direct X 10 is integrated into Vista and cannot be uninstalled or rolled back.

  • Downloading High Def Mini DV through Macbook pro to external hard drive

    Hi, I am making a 90min High def documentary with the hopes of selling it comercialy. I purchased a Sony hdr-hc7 and we shot 28 hours of footage with another 30 hrs to come. My plan is to rent a tape deck to download the DVM-63HD Mini DV Video Cassettes through my Macbook pro to an external hard drive.
    My question is will I lose the High Def quality because I only have one firewire 400 input and will have to daisy chain the tape deck through the back of the external Hard drive. I asume that I'll need about 2000 gbs of external storage for the project, correct? Also, will my system be able to handle the editing, compresion and then creation of a master (maybe renting a Blue ray disc burner).
    I have a macbook pro 15" with 1gb ddr2 sdram 667 mhz speed. There is a Bank 0 and a Bank 1 slot for ram that list have ing 1gb of ram (does this mean there are 2gb of ram?). Also, the firewire is 400mb/sec. Graphics card is an ATY,RadeonX1600. I'm using final cut pro 5.1.4. that I bought with finalcut studio pro.

    Hi(Bonjour)!
    If you use Apple Intermediate Codec to capture, you'll need 12 to 15 meg/second of space, that's an hefty 45 to 48 gig. for one hour. ( an external hard disk about 58 X 48 gig: 2784 gig ...)
    As I read in FCS2 additionnal documentation regarding work in HDV and other formats, you can capture HDV natively (same hard drive space than regular mini DV), but you will need more processor power to display and scroll content than media captured with AIC.

  • Headphones volume controller not working on new macbook pro

    Hello,
    I recently purchased a new macbook pro (15" late 2013) and just noticed that when plugging my headphones (beats solo HD), the volume controller in the headphones doesn't change the volume of the laptop. The headphone controller works fine on my iphone, and on my older macbook pro (2010, running on mavericks too). I checked the Sound settings under System Preferences, and under the Input tab, the new macbook doesn't recognize the headphone microphone either, which my old macbook pro still does. In terms of sound, the headphones work well, and under the Output tab, the Headphones appear, as normal. The sound can also be adjusted using the keyboard keys and the volume adjust on screen, but not with the headphones volume controller, which seems odd to me.
    Is there a way to fix this?
    Thanks for your time!
    Melissa

    Hi,
    I also noticed this... when I use my old earphones (the white Apple ones that come with the iphone) on my new laptop, everything works fine, including the microphone, volume control, skipping songs... etc. But my other headphones are not recognised at all, just as audio output and nothing else.
    My old macbook, however, still fully recognizes both my old earphones and my "troublesome" Beats headphones, even after the latest system update, as does my iphone
    So I still don't know what is happening.
    Just telling you this so that you make 100% sure your earphones are faulty before discarding them!

  • Bose Bluetooth wave III won't sinc with my MacBook Pro. What should I do?

    I purchased a Wave III with Doc & Bluetooth adapters. How do I connect to my MacBook Pro & iPhone 5?

    On your Wave III remote, press "Aux" until "Bluetooth" appears, then hold down the presets "5" button until "Discoverable" appears. Open your mac's bluetooth in system preferences and it should show up and pair. It worked perfectly for me.

  • Configure Apple TV through MacBook Pro?

    Is there a way to configure Apple TV through the MacBook Pro? I'm trying not to buy another remote.

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    Unfortunately, there is no way at all of configuring the Apple TV from your computer. Unless your Apple TV is already connected to your network (in which case you can use the remote app on your iOS device) then you will need to purchase a new remote control.

  • XBOX Live through MacBook Pro

    I'm at school connected to the campus's wireless network.
    I've been trying to get onto XBOX Live using an ethernet cable between my MacBook Pro and my roommate's 360
    How do I do it?
    and yes, i have the internet sharing on
    i'm just having trouble with all the IP addresses and such
    help!!!!

    Thanks for the prompt reply Duane. Just to clarify: I need another wireless router? I thought airport express was one. I was trying to configure the ports of the airport express's basestation. My connection system is:
    -An ADSL 2mbps connection that comes into my home from a phone line and into a D-link GLB 802C modem
    -This connects to an Airport Express
    -My macbook pro uses the net through the wifi signal provided
    -I connect the macbook pro to the xbox through an ethernet cable (mainly because it's far from the adsl router)
    I have read that one can forward ports with airport express...

  • My iPhone 4S Bluetooth will not connect with either my iPad1, MacBook Pro or Automobile BT.  Suspect a stack issue in new BT 4.0 (BTLE) release. Has any one discovered fix to this. I have tried this with two separate 4S phones and have same problem..

    One further clarification. I am most concerned with connecting with BT in automobile. I can use WiFi to tether to my other devices.  I cannot change the car very easily! My iPhone 3G had no connection issues.

    I'm new.  Same bluetooth problem. Will not pair with my 2010 VW GTI w NAV system, or my MacBook Pro 17" (just discovered the MacB prob.)
    When I initially discovered the problem I went to an Apple Store. Genius was excellent but requested that I check with VW.  VW people were very helpful. A mechanic had an iphone 4s. He came out to the car ... He could not pair my phone but he could pair his phone ... So, it's the iphone ... Back to the Apple Store ... the genius was really good. He replaced the iphone. Great !  So, back out to the car & it would not pair, still.  So ... can't be the phone , right.  Back to VW. The Audi manager had an iphone 4S. He paired his phone with my car. He could not pair my phone to my car. He tries my phone in a new 2011 GTI sitting on the lot ... my phone pairs with it just fine.  So ... it's my car.  So ... make an appointment to get the bluetooth module replaced. They replace the Bluetooth module. My iphone will not pair.  They end up pairing 2 different iphone 4S to my car ... but not my iphone 4S. My iphone 4S will also not pair with another 2010 GTI they have in for service. Though the 2 iphone 4S
    pair with the second GTI just fine.  They even try pairing my iphone with a brand new 2012 GTI in the showroom ... yep ... it paired fine.    So ... ????????????????
    They are going to update my nav software next (tomorrow), Hopeful ??? not really ... Will be taking my computer to Apple Store next ... maybe if they can discover why it will not pair to my MacBook Pro it will lead to a solution for the GTI ???  I'll get back to you.

  • I have a problem with my headphone jack and i just bought my macbook pro 10 days ago., I have a problem with my headphone jack and i just bought my macbook pro 10 days ago.

    I am having a problem with the jack in for the headphones. I have bought it brand new from a local authorised apple store about 10 days ago. As soon as I plugged in my headphones and tried them, the sound was coming out of one side of the headphone and the plug inside my macbook pro was loose. When i tried moving it the sound was coming out of the device. What can I do?

    Take it back to the store you bought it from. It will definitely be taken care of
