Bluetooth headphones with itunes

i have some bluetooth headphones, LG HBS-200 and a bluetooth usb dongle for my laptop. I can connect my headphones to my computer, but i don't know how to make itunes work through them. (or any other media like power dvd for that matter) any help would be greatly appreciated.

i finally figured out how to make itunes play on your bluetooth headset...kind of a pain.
this is on vista...
click on the start bar, click on search, type sound.
click on sound, when sound loads you should see a list of sound devices for your computer. you have to disable your primary audio output.
FYI, right click and click display disabled items, so you dont have to go manually turn your internal speaker or speaker outputs back on

  • Bluetooth headphone with MIC

    I'm considering to purchase a Bluetooth headphone with MIC for my iPad mini. If I connect, will the headphone MIC take over the iPad's builtin microphone?

    mainly true and most likely yeah! The sound will come through the headsets but the microphone will not be able to function at all.... The bluetooth on the iPod touch is very limited to what function it can perform, like Meg St. Clair mentioned is for stereo Headphone; wireless speakers and games. Things like headsets or anything(like microphones)that might be used as with Bluetooth is not supported. The only way you can get a microphone to work is if it's plugged in on the headphone Jack at the bottom of the iPod touch. Sorry that you had to hear that, you were probably hoping that you could use the Bluetooth with that microphone.....

  • Can I use Bluetooth headphones with a 1st generation iPhone?

    Can I use Bluetooth headphones with a 1st generation iPhone? The headphones pair but the sound comes out of the phone and not the headphones. The phone has iOS 3.1 which is the last software the phone will support. Thanks.

    This will help you:
    Original iPhone
    The original iPhone features Bluetooth capabilities only for making calls. Connecting to a PC or streaming audio other than phones calls through Bluetooth is not supported.
    IPhone 3G
    With the iPhone 3G operating system, its Bluetooth capabilities are expanded to support wireless stereo headsets, file sharing with other Bluetooth devices, and use of the iPhone as a 3G modem. Also supported are new capabilities for combining the iPhone with Bluetooth accessories.
    IPhone 4.0
    The 4.0 version of the iPhone's operating systems keeps the expanded Bluetooth functions introduced in version 3 and adds one new benefit: Bluetooth keyboard support, so iPhone owners can use wireless keyboards wherever they go.

  • Is there a way to use Bluetooth headphones with apple tv

    I am trying to figure out if there is a way to use my Bluetooth headphones with my Apple TV3. I know it has Bluetooth as I can use the keyboard.

    It's a pretty good idea - why not send a suggestion here:
    http://www.apple.com/feedback/appletv.html
    ....especially as AppleTV has no analogue audio out, and most non-Bluetooth wireless headphones would expect an analogue input (there are some expensive ones that handle optical, or the user coudl maybe use TV headphone/audio out, but Bluetooth audio might be handy for many.

  • Videos/Games use internal speaker and not Bluetooth headphones with 4.2

    Until yesterday, the bluetooth headphones would output all sounds.. music, videos, games..
    With 4.2, it now only outputs sound on MUSIC. For videos, you need to click the sound icon and select the headphones. If you're listening to the ipod music on shuffle (and have music videos in there), it will play the music part in the headphones but switch the ipad speaker when a video comes on.
    As annoying as that is, this part can be changed. In games, theres no way to change the output to the headphones (it's all the ipad speaker).
    Is this intentional? something I need to change in settings somewhere?

    You've done well with troubleshooting so far. Next step would be to back up and then restore from iTunes. Good luck!

    The Apple Support Communities are an international user to user technical support forum. As a man from Mexico my first language is Spanish. I do not speak English, however I do write in English with the aid of the Mac OS X spelling and grammar checks. I also live in a culture perhaps very very different from your own. When offering advice in the ASC, my comments are not meant to be anything more than helpful and certainly not to be taken as insults.
    No, the iPod and the Mac have different operating systems; iOS and OS X respectively. The apps must be developed for the Specific OS. When the same app is for both platforms, they are actually two different apps and if you want both, then you have to buy both separately from their respective app stores.

  • Bose Bluetooth headphone with skype

    I recently purchased a Bose Bluetooth headphone planing on using my 3g iPhone with Skype, as ie does work with the plug in set that came with the phone. Is there any way I can do this ?

    I have found the answer to my question. Leave the ipad at home and use a laptop.

  • Bluetooth Headphones with FM Radio?

    Can I use Bluetooth Headphones to listen to the FM Radio on a 7th Generation Ipod nano?

    The irritating part is that if you connect the wired earphones and play music it WILL connect to BT headphones and speakes and send the audio to those BT devices. So it is absolutely possible to have wired headphones attached and redirect the audio to BT. They just didn't implement this for the FM Radio, or forgot, or didn't think it was important. The requirement for the headphones for the antenna, shouldn't preclude using BT as an output for the FM Radio. The switch output device shown in the nano manual (http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/ipod_nano_user_guide.pdf) pg 55 only appears next to the volume control if you are playing music.
    Needs to be fixed, if for no other reason than it is inconsistent. A blight on the interface.

  • ITunes refuses to use bluetooth headphone

    At first, I didn't realize there is this forum, and posted the following in a forum which is less suitable than this one. So, I copy it here.
    I'm bewildered. Consider these three items: The bluetooth setting of Mac OS (the bluetooth icon near the top right corner), a bluetooth headphone, and iTunes. In what order should I switch them on?
    First of all, I use the same headphone (S305 of Motorola) with the iPhone 4 and the 6th-gen. iPod Nano without any problems. It doesn't seem to matter which is switched on first.
    Now, on my iMac, I experience wierd things. For example,
    1) Switch on the headset.
    2) Bluetooth menu of iMac -> Turn on Bluetooth.
    3) Bluetooth menu of iMac -> S305 -> Use headphones.
    After a while, my headset beeps and the Bluetooth
    icon of the iMac turns to three dots. (Connection
    established.)
    4) Invoke iTunes. Then, the Bluetooth icon turns back
    to the Bluetooth symbol, and music starts to flow
    from the buildin speaker. Not from the headset!
    5) Quit iTunes.
    6) Bluetooth menu -> Turn off bluetooth.
    7) Do item (2).
    8) Do item (3).
    9) Do item (4). And then, there is an error pop-up
    window, saying that the bluetooth audio failed,
    or somthing to the effect.
    10) Restart the iMac.
    11) Repeat from (1). Then, SOMETIMES, iTunes plays music
    through my headset!
    I failed to see any "systematicness". It SOMETIMES works and SOMETIMES fails.
    Is there any pattern here? What's the correct order to turn on various things? I ask this, because establishing a Bluetooth connection after starting iTunes SOMETIMES works!
    Oh, and I'm sitting right in front of the iMac and the strength of the signal should be very good. When I do a test like the above, I turn off all other Bluetooth signals. (For example, if its Bluetooth is on, my iPhone 4 establishes a connection with my headset before my iMac does so.)

    Are these tracks ones that iTunes played successfully before the update? If not, what format are the tracks (MP3, WAV, WMA, etc.)?

  • Bluetooth Headphones not working with the Nano 6th Gen

    I was wondering if anyone else out there has issues with using bluetooth headphone with the new nano. I have a pair of Motorola Motoroka S9 headphones and have to use the D650 Adapter with it and when I plug into the bottom of the iPod I get "Unsupported" Accessory is not supported. As I know Apple hates to put bluetooth in anything other then iPod Touch & iPhones. What's up with that?? All my other nanos 2nd & 3rd Gens work fine with the adapter......but my current and newest one doesn't. Anyone else having that issue?

    How did you reboot the ipod nano 6th gen?
    Two things this thing needs.
    1. Digital / regular watch face combo.
    2. capable bluetooth headphones. Either a plug in add-on to either headphone or multi-pin port. Also a speaker of some sort to tell that an alarm is going off.
    I use alarms on my watch.
    more watch face designs(digital and analogue) would be awesome.

  • Bluetooth headphone problem with miix 2 8"

    I used to listen internet radio preferred by bluetooth headphones via Wi-Fi home network. The sound however is like "underground" and intermitted. With wired and RF headphones sound is clear and steady.

    I have checked all sound and BT drivers, all Ok. What can I do, buy a new tablet?

  • Yosemite + Bluetooth headphones = random unacceptable stutter

    Using a pair of Creative WP380 bluetooth headphones with Yosemite, playing music on iTunes or video on VLC gives me random stuttering that never seems to stop. The headphones work perfectly with my Nexus 7 tablet via bluetooth, and regular wired headphones are fine on the Mac, no stuttering.
    Anyone seen this happen, and did you manage to solve this?

    Hi JotOER,
    try in the activity menu to monitor the CoreAudio process "coreaudiod" (type in search field coreaudiod) while playing
    videos, if the monitored process will show temporary red color, you might have a serious problem with the CoreAudio engine
    in Yosemite for your personal hardware setup, so you should go back to the previous MacOS you installed before.
    Since I follow the comments in the internet about OSX Yosemite, my impression is that this operating system is working
    well for some apple computers, but not for all it should. As a software engineer I'm working with tree instances of OSX
    (10.6, 10.9, 10.10) on my late 2008 iMac (2,4GHz 6GB RAM). On my two OSX followers of snowleopard 10.6 I had to
    "hack" personally the operating system to be satisfied with the setup, each OSX upgrade seems to be a loss of quality
    but with increasing innovation, many apple users complain there is not enough support from apple side ... where will it end ??

  • 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.
