Movie sound plays in background when I connect a Bluetooth Headset.

My early 2013 Macbook Pro Retina likes to play movies, and or music upon successfully pairing a Bluetooth headset. It's annoying to kill whichever application causes it every time I pair.  Is there a way to prevent this from happening?
Thanks!

Just wasted 15 minutes doing the same searching you have done Sam. Still no answers. I'm under the impression that it is an Apple subconscious classical conditioning experiment, like Pavlov's dog. Apple hopes that we will stop using spotify, or pandora, or soundcloud, because we have been conditioned to see iTunes pop up on our macs every time we play music. Sorry Apple. Not going to work.

    I want to use an old 3 GS iPhone that is no longer in service as a phone now as just an iPod to play music. When I connect the phone to the computer with iTunes running, iTunes says it can't connect to the device because it didn't get a valid response from the device. How can I get the system to recognize the phone, and let me rename it as my iPod, instead of my phone?
    As an aside, the current installed operating system on this old iPhone is 4.2.1, but that wasn't one of the selectable options in the operating system list dropdown below. Don't know if that makes any difference.

  • Can't have sound on my TV when I connect it on my MacBook Pro 2011, with the HDMI adaptor

    Can't have sound on my TV when I connect it on my MacBook Pro 2011, with the HDMI adaptor.
    On SOUND preferences, I don't have the option for chosing HDMI on the OUTPUT sound.

    Do you have another HDMI port that you can switch to on the TV? Is the tv source on the matching HDMI port with the volume up? After checking those try the following:

    Can't. This is done for the individual movie, not by iTunes.
    Some have it, most don't.

  • My phone has started playing music when it connects to Bluetooth in my car. How do I stop it?

    With this last update, my iphone5 starts playing music every time it connects via Bluetooth in my car. I close the app but when I hang up from a call, the music starts again.  How do I turn this feature off?

    The iphone starts playing music automatically when it connects to either of the car stereos via bluetooth and I don't want it to as it drains the phone battery. This is particularly annoying on the ford as the car stereo doesn't even support streaming music!
    I don't want to lose the bluetooth connection as I need to make phone calls.
    Does anyone know how to switch off the automatic start for the music without losing the bluetooth connection?

  • Could anyone connect a Bluetooth headset?

    I tried connecting a Bluetooth headset to my N200. It seems to install fine and I can connect/disconnect a Skype call from the earpiece's button, but there's absolutely no sound coming in or out of it. In fact, I can see no new sound devices listed for playing or recording.
    I tried updating the Lenovo driver and then also installing the latest driver from Broadcom, but there's absolutely no change.
    Could anyone get a Bluetooth headset to work right?
    Thanks in advance!

    Hello everyone.
    I finally solved this problem. The Microsoft guys gave me this program

    You have tu run it while the headset is connected.

  • Why does my iPhone play muted music in the background when I connect to my car via Bluetooth? This put a drain on the phone battery

    My iPhone 4s plays muted music in the background when connected via Bluetooth to my 2009 Ford Focus. This puts a heavy drain on the phone battery. I would appreciate any ideas to prevent this happening.

    It doesn't really matter whether I am talking to Apple or not (and I'm sure they monitor these comments), I want everyone to know how bad this new iphone 4s is, and all of it's problems.
    Apple have already launched an upgrade to the software - it obviously did not help, as many around the world would concur.
    As far as being patient and waiting for another "update in the works" is concerned, it is just not satisfactory. This is not a cheap phone, and those who are experiencing these problems, should not have to be paying a substantial amount of money, for a very smart phone, that obviously, has some serious problems.

  • NO audio from laptop speaker when phone connected to Bluetooth with media audio checked

    Hey guys, when I connect my Verizon Samsung Galaxy SIII (SGS3) phone through my Toshiba Qosmio x875-Q7280 Windows 7 X64 Bluetooth with media audio checked on my SGS3; for what ever reason there is no audio playing through the speaker when I try to listen to my music and for what ever reason I notice in the recoding tab under Sound my SGS3 profile mic audio bar was moving up and down. When I went in to configure it, I click a check box which played the music that I was playing through the laptop speaker but it sounded all muffled. If anyone can help would very much appreciate it.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Just wanted to update just incase someone else is have this same problem also, so I manage to solve this on my own my installing a bluetooth driver from Intel. I'm not sure if link posting is allow, so I'll just direct you there. If you google Intel and navigate to their download center, search for Intel® PROSet/Wireless Bluetooth Software for Windows 7* it should have two choice 32 bit and 64 bit. After it finish installing there should be another bluetooth icon in your bottom right tray. Next right click the bluetooth icon and add a new device as you would any other and enable media audio from your connected device (in this case it would be my Samsung Galaxy S 3) and you should be good to go with music or what ever sound coming out through the laptop speaker.

  • Messages won't connect to bluetooth headset for sound output

    I have a Plantronics Voyager Legend bluetooth headset that can pair with more than one device. I got it so I could switch back and forth from my phone to my MacBook Pro (running Mavericks) easily. It works great everywhere. EXCEPT, it won't work for Messages sound output. I've talked with three different Apple support people and with Plantronics. I tried a workaround I found elsewhere using Soundflower, but that did not work either. I've checked all settings, unpaired/repaired, shut down/rebooted/reset; looked for software issues; downloaded the current firmware; tried turning bluetooth off my phone to see if that was an issue; and probably some other things I'm forgetting; all to no avail.
    Any ideas?

    Following up on the above...
    My S10-HD paired straight out of the box w/ my iPod Touch 2G; however, when I tried to pair it with my iPad 2, the iPad 2 would just search...and search...and search.
    On page 7 of the S10-HD manual, you'll see a note saying, "To pair your headphones again, press and hold the "0" (power) key until the status light becomes steadily lit in blue".
    This proved to be the key to getting the S10-HD to work with the iPad 2. The S10-HD needs to be "off", then you'll have to press and hold for around 7 to 10 seconds.
    Furthermore, it appears (from my own testing; your results may differ) that the S10-HD can only be paired to one device at a time. That may sound obvious, but what it means is that you'll first have to turn off Bluetooth on the paired device with which the S10-HD is currently connected, then connect it to the other device with which it is already paired. (Kind of a pain, but I can live with it.)
    Also, if there's anyone considering the S9-HD or who's had an S9-HD fail because of sweat incursion (i.e., you use it at the gym, etc.), Motorola is offering a warranty upgrade from the S9-HD to the S10-HD. What you need to know is: (1) The S9-HD will fail from the least bit of sweat entering the unit through the speakers; and (2) The S9-HD sounds better than the S10-HD (a lot better...it's a tradeoff you have to be willing to live with if you want these for exercise). To get the S10-HD if you've experienced prob's w/ your S9-HD as described, call Julie Scofield in the Consumer Advocacy Office at Motorola's Corporate Headquarters: (847) 523-5852.

  • No audio input or output when connected to bluetooth headset

    I have a MacBook Pro 15" early 2013 (MacBookPro10,1) and a Plantronic Legend.
    Since upgrading to Yosemite (I am not 100% sure it's related, it just didn't happen on Mavericks), I have the following problem: my headset connects to the MacBook correctly, but I don't see it in the sound preference panel, neither under audio input nor under audio output.
    If I open the System Information, I can see the Bluetooth Headset being recognised as such:
         Major Type: Audio
         Minor Type: Headset
    If I reset the SMC and repair the headset, it works again, but that's a hassle.
    Anybody else having the issue and maybe found a better workaround?

    Removing and pairing again the Plantronics Voyager Legend solves the issue. But it keeps on happening again. Really annoying.
    I have firmware v106 for the Plantronics Voyager Legend, which is the latest at the time of writing.
