Cannot listen to itunes via Jabra Bluetooth headphones?

My headset work with everything except listening iTunes thru them. I can chat with them, I can even pause and play itunes, but no music comes thru them, only the computer speakers
do I need a driver ?

Using a headset needs several steps even needed if you have the latest computer or Mac OS X release. Please make sure to follow them in order.
Download the Apple Bluetooth Firmware Updater
Install it
Remove as much USB devices from your computer as possible
Launch it from Applications > Utilities > Bluetooth Updater
Apply it to your adapter (takes very long and disconnects your Bluetooth mouse).
Start the Apple Bluetooth Assistant and select Headset. Do not use anything else!
Make your headset Bluetooth visible. Look up the manual of your headset how to do that.
Now select the headset in System Preferences > Sound.
In most cases step 3 is missed. You have to start the already installed updater yourself (do not ask me why).

    Cannot get into itunes via Mac keep getting error −50 ?  help please

    Make sure your Mac's software is up to date.
    Open system Preferences > Software Update > Check Now.
    Restart your Mac after all updates are installed.
    Then try iTunes.
    Which OS X is installed on your Mac ?
    Click the Apple () menu top left in your screen. From the drop down menu click About This Mac. The version is noted there.
    Troubleshooting advice can depend on that information.

  • While listening to iTunes via Apple TV

    While listening to iTunes both through Apple TV or an old Airport Express the music intermittently cuts out. It plays through my MacBookPro uninterrupted. I'm running the latest Yosemite 10.10.2. Also everything is connected via a time capsule. Thought my Airport Express was dying but the Apple TV is new and the same thing happens.

    Hello whyard1,
    Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities. It sounds like you are experiencing performance issues with AirPlay. The following resource may provide a solution:

  • ITunes plays through bluetooth headphone

    Every time I tried play music in iTunes through bluetooth headphone, I had to remove and reconnect the device in System Setting panel. After I pressed the play button, the music just would not play at all, or sometimes there was skipping noise. However, playing sound in web browser worked fine. Quit and restart iTunes seemed to be able to "solve" this issue.

    It just dawned on me that you are asking a windows pc-spedific iTunes question.  Bluetooth yes, but windows none-the-less.  I think you would be better off going to the apple forum specifically for windows itunes problems:

  • Want to listen to TV audio with Bluetooth headphones

    4Want to listen to TV audio with Bluetooth headphonesq <span class="smalltext">[size="">
    <span class="smalltext">[size="">?[size="">?<div class="post">I have a Insignia bluetooth wireless headphones that I want to use to listen to my Viso VO37L flat screen TV. So I put a Soundblaster Audigy soundcard in my spare computer and connected the TV headphone jack to the input line of the Audigy?soundcard. I? now have the TV audio playing through the computers speakers. The problem is that no matter what I try I can't get the signal to the headphones. I have WIDCOMM bluetooth 5..0.3900 software installed on the computer and it works fine ,I can hear all Window XP sounds as well as the media player and other software audio. I tried using a few recording software programs thinking I could use the monitoring feature to hear the in-line input, but even though I could record the input and hear the replay I couldn't hear the monitor. This whole Idea seemed so simply but not I am thinking that "you can't get there from here". If anyone knows what I am missing I would appreciate the help. [email protected]

    Welcome to Apple Discussions
    It is frustrating to find content not playable on Safari. Yahoo Music is one example. The Mac does come with adequate plug-ins - if only certain sites would cooperate too! Eventually, these limitations will go away. But for the moment there is a PC bias evident in certain web sites. When I run into the Safari wall, I use Firefox as an alternative. Seems it has an easier time with media content than Safari. Have you tried it?
    Not sure why you had problems with the WMP download? Flip4Mac, which lets you view Windows Media content through Quicktime, would be a good alternative for Windows Media Player.

  • Cannot listen to itunes music after relocating it to a new computer, Help .....

    I have replaced my computer and have moved my itunes music and playlists to the new computer, but I cannot listen to the music. I received a message that itunes cannot locate the file with the music. How can I find this? During the move I used my external hard drive, put the music and playlists on the hard drive and then retrieved them from the hard drive to the new computer, it looks like alll the playlists and music are there. Also, there is an exclamation point beside the songs. Where does itunes search for the file? Is there a specific place that Itunes looks for the file? I believe that I may have it in 'My Documents' file, should it be in 'My Music' or another file?
    I use this music with my ipod to teach fitness classes, so I don't want to lose it all or have to replace it all. I also need to be able to syn this ipod nano to itunes to update any new music.
    Since I have purchased most of this music from itunes, is it still accessible, as I have already paid for it once.
    Anyone have any suggestions for me to try. Please.

    The "missing file" thing happens if the file is no longer where iTunes expects to find it. The way that you've backed up and restored things might have caused iTunes to expect the files to be in the wrong location or layout.
    Select a track with an exclamation mark, use Ctrl-I to get info, then cancel when asked to try to locate the track. Look on the summary tab for the location that iTunes thinks the file should be. Now take a look around your hard drive. Hopefully you can locate the track in question. If a section of your library hasn't been restored to the correct place then it might be possbile to move it now you know
    Alternatively, as long as you can find a location holding the missing files, then you should be able to use my FindTracks script to reconnect them to iTunes .

  • SLVR Phone w/ iTunes Compatibilty w/Bluetooth Headphones?

    I recently bought a SLVR phone with iTunes along with Motorola HT820 Bluetooth Stereo headphones. According to Motorola, iTunes is not compatible with bluetooth, so it is not possible to hear music on the headphones. Is this absolute, or is there some way of making them work?

    My HT820 works perfectly with itunes. I paired the headset with the compuer and went into the system settings and chose H820 as the input and output device. Music in my ears. It also wirks with vid conferencing wih ichat. Not the best quality. Pales in comparison to a good pair of headphones. It is supposed to work simultaneously with my phone (motorola Q). It should mute the music when a call comes in, but I can't seem to get them to work at the samt time.
    Sorry! I just re-read your post. I thought you meant itunes on the computer! FYI: the HT820 works fine with the windows media player on the Q

  • I cannot listen to itunes

    I recently updated my software and I can no longer listen to any of the music on my itunes on my computer. I notice that my nephew appears to have accessed my account and shared his music whatever that is. Is this causing the block? I disconnected the share but cannot get rid of him. What is a girl to do.

    Check the Output on your Sound Preferences. Sometimes these settings change during installation.

  • Jabra Bluetooth Headphones pairing problem

    I wrote jabra about my problem with my headset sounding like crapola when paired to macs, but sounding grand when paired to iPhone, and got this back from tech support:
    Sounds like your unit it's not pairing correctly with the macs (like it's pairing HSP/HFP only). We cannot troubleshoot the PC's and it sounds like there's nothing wrong with the BT3030.
    I have no idea what that means or how to fix. Any ideas? thx!

    I bought a new jabra halo stereo headset... But it is not discovered by Apple I-touch ... but it is discovered by HTC Incredible S and my Lenova G460...

  • Nokia 3161: Listen to radio via bluetooth device

    I have a Nokia 6131 and want to listen to the radio via a standard bluetooth device. I am unable to accomplish this because the phone requires a wired headset to be connected to the phone. The wire of the headset functions as the antenna and if no wired headset is connected the radio cannot be activated. As long as a wired headset is connected to the 6131 no bluetooth device can be paired to the phone and if the wired headset is connected after a bluetooth device is paired, the existing link to the bluetooth device is automatically deactivated. Does anyone know how to solve this?

    Thanks for the quick response. May I label this design decision from Nokia as not very clever! In stronger words: to me is appears to be a flaw, because it now causes that I can indeed listen to music via my bluetooth device if it is stored on my Nokia 3161 but I cannot listen to the radio-device on the same Nokia 3161 without physically connecting the wired headset. And all this just because the radio requires the wired headset as an antenna! Am I, as a non-technical consumer, expected to understand this? Can't this designflaw be mended via a software update of the firmware. Maybe somebody from Nokia can respond to this?

  • Can I stream from iTunes via Wifi to speakers attached to another Mac?

    Hello!
    I have a 15" Powerbook running 10.4.10, and a 400mhz Sawtooth G4 running 10.4.10 and 10.3.9. I also have a wireless network, with the G4 connected via Ethernet to the router. I also have a very nice set of speakers currently connected to both machines with two audio cables (to connect to the Audio-out on each computer), and a Y-adapter at the speaker.
    Usually, when I use my Powerbook, while it's in the same room, it's across the room - running on battery and completely wireless - and I am too far from the desk to plug the speakers directly into the Powerbook. Thus, when I listen to iTunes, I must use headphones.
    Is there some way to use the G4 as a sort of "network speaker"? By that I mean stream sound from iTunes in my Powerbook across the WiFi network to the G4, which then plays it through the attached speakers. Think of it as a sort of make-shift "airport express" - I'll be using the G4 in the same way that iTunes will stream music through an Airport Express to a speaker set. If a solution will work under 10.3.9, even better - Panther is friendlier (less resource hungry) on that old machine than Tiger.
    Thanks,
    -Dan

  • TS3297 I keep getting cannot conect to itunes store on all the phones and ipad in our house.

    I cannot connect to itunes via my phone or Ipad
    I keep getting the following message on all my devices - cannot connect to itunes store.
    It will not let me buy any apps or music.
    Thanks in advance for any help

    There are a number of threads from other people reporting the same iTunes connection issue, it looks like there might be a problem at Apple's end - but you could try logging out of your account on the iPhone by tapping on your id in Settings > Store and then log back in and see if it then works, but it probably won't until Apple's fixed it
