You can use USB Bluetooth dongle if you wish:

Cannot pair bluetooth speaker with iPhone 6

My JBL Chrome worked perfectly with my iPhone 5. Now the iPhone 6 will not pair with the speaker, yet I'm able to pair the phone with my car (Infiniti Q50).The guy at the Apple store told me it likely is a bug in ios8. Is this true? Do I have to wait for several updates to restore former functionality. I'm disappointed.

I would try to reset the speaker. If you were able to pair it with the iPhone 5, and you activated the 6 from a backup of the 5, the speaker may be "confused" with a device of the same name. Also, the speaker may not be able to pair with more than one device and needs to be reset. Check the speaker's user guide to see how to reset the device and then put it into discovery/pairing mode again. Then attempt to pair with the phone.

HT2995 Trouble Pairing Bluetooth speaker with Mac Mini

I can't seem to get the Bluetooth on my Mac Mini to recognize my LG wireless speakers (though the Bluetooth on my iPad recognizes the LG wireless speakers). Any thoughts on how to correct this?
The Mac Mini simply does not seem to recognize that the LG speaker exists. I know the LG speaker is in Bluetooth discxoverable mode, as my iPad sees it.

You do have the iPad's BT turned off, right, when you try to pair with the Mac?
Better yet, on the iPad make sure the speakers are unpaired-removed, and then try pairing with your mini.

Problems pairing wireless keyboard with Mac mini

Hi,
I just bought a new Mac mini with wireless keyboard and mouse and cannot pair the wireless keyboard during the initial set up. Took out the batteries, turned off the mini, still doesn't work. I'm looking into borrowing a regular USB keyboard an running through the set up with this so I can get started. Is there another solution?
Thanks.

Isn't it great when you solve your own problems. The USB keyboard allowed me to get up an running. When I went to the bluetooth preferences, I set up the wireless keyboard and haven't had a problem since.

MI424WR Reb I Gigabit router droping wireless connection with laptop

I have the Actiontech MI424WR Rev I router with firmware 40.19.22 which it came with. The connection on my HP Pavilion dv7 using Vista 64 bit professional. The wireless connction to the router keeps dropping - I need to disconnect and then re-connect to it. I have also had a problem with my wired PC where I needed to unplug the router and plug it back in so that I could get out to the internet.
The prior MI424WR Rev C worked perfectly for years and years. But - I wanted the faster 801.11n speed to I purchased the Rev I Gigabit version.
I have reset my card through Windows yesterday - but - I am still having problems. I use the Acronis True Image Home backup software. Anytime I try to run a verify of my backup - bang - my signal is dropped - the backup verify stops - I disconnect and then reconnect - it starts up for a while and drops again.
After a day or 2 without trying to perform a verify - the signal is still dropped.
I have no idea what to do next.
I use the WPA2 AES as my security to the router.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

My personal suspicion is that you really have several issues, The Acronis software driver behaves like a hardware device (and in fact shows up as one when it is running). That leads me to suspect there may be a conflict between the Acronis device driver and the wireless card driver. You have not mentioned what version of True Image you are using. Is it the latest, and have you contacted Acronis?
The dropping of the Wi-Fi connection is generally the result of one of two things happening. Signal interference (is the card in laptop a true 802.11n dual band card?). If it isn't, the 2.4 Ghz band is rife with sources of interference. That is less of a problem with dual band units because the 5Ghz band has more 'real estate', and few users, but still possible.
The other issue is that it may be a power management issue. Do you lose the connection when running of the AC adapter, or only on battery, or both. If it works on AC power but drops on battery, it is probably a power management issue, and you may have to tweak the power management settings. I have seen many battery powered devices time out for inactivity with surprising speed on wireless networks. It is a way of maximizing battery life (and inconveniencing the hell out of the user).
As to the wired pc, that's fort of a chicken-egg problem. It is hard to tell which end the problem is on. When you cannot connect to the internet, is the connection light on the ethernet port on? Will it connect if you just unplg the ethernet cable and re connect it without unplugging the router? In other words it is hard to tell whether it is a software issue, or a hardware issue. Generally the negotiation of the initial ethernet connection (capability and speed) is generally firmware on the ethernet card and port on the router.
I seriously doubt it has anything to do with the encryption settings.

Can I use a wireless speaker with my mac?

I really hate all the wires running behind my computer, so it would be awesome if I can buy a wireless or bluetooth speaker for my Mac. I'm just wondering that is it possible to do that? If possible, please give me some hints on how to.
Thanks so much in advance.

Both require a transmitter connected to the computer.

Cant pair a wireless speaker

I have a HP Pavilion notebook with windows 8.1 I want to pair with Sony sbsbtx300 wireless speaker with bluetooth.
Is it possible? I can't get them to sync.

Yeah, when trying to establish a wireless connection to the router it is much easier to do when you can check the configurations via a wired connection. Not bad advice. The problem the original poster and I have was that the driver for the wireless NIC is not installed right in the first place, without that working in the first place there's no way it's ever gonna work.
I came back here to post that the bootcamp update that came out yesterday fixed my problem. Meaning my assumption that there was an issue with the Apple drivers for these latest (Pernyn with 802.11n draft) MBPs was correct and I do not have a hardware problem. Apple figured out what was wrong and issued the patch, way to go!

I have been using a jam classic wireless speaker on my macbook pro and all of a sudden it doesn't connect anymore. any idea whats wrong?

I successfully paired a Bluetooth HMDX Jam Classic Wireless Speaker with my macbook and have been using it for months. Then suddenly it will not work. Has anyone else had this problem. It isn't the speaker. The best buy guys tested it and it still works with other devises. Got any ideas?

What is a good wireless speaker for ipads

What is a good, moderate priced wireless speaker for the ipad2?

The speaker I have—and love—isn't moderately priced. It's the Bose Soundlink Wireless Mobile (Bluetooth) speaker:
http://store.apple.com/us_edu_383719/product/H6806VC/A/bose-soundlink-wireless-m obile-speaker?
I love the sound quality, the form factor, the ease of use—everything about it. It's about $300 if you forgo the fancy covers.
If I were going to buy another speaker that really is moderately priced, the one I'd get is the Soundfreaq Sound Kick SFQ-04, and it's about $100. Here's a link to the review at iLounge, which is the place to go to read reviews about virtually every portable speaker on the market:

Having a wireless speaker with my iPad 2 and all my music on iCloud is bliss. Life is much simpler and I am more productive.

How do I pair an iphone 4 with sony wireless speaker?

How do I pair an iPhone 4, iOS 7.1.2, with a bluetooth device. The phone will not pair with a Sony wireless speaker nor a basis peak fitness tracker.
I have reset the network, turned the phone off and on and still no bluetooth connection. The bluetooth emblem is at the top of the phone screen. I do not know if the phone has ever been paired with a bluetooth device.

I found my problem. The speaker was paired with a different iPhone. I discontinued that pairing and tried to pair it with my iPhone 4 and it works perfectly.
Thank you for your input.

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 just purchased a JBL charge wireless speaker that is supposed to be compatible with ipad using Bluetooth , but cannot get my ipad to find the device. Please help

How do I connect ipad to jbl charge wireless speaker using Bluetooth. My ipad and ipad mini do not find device

I am having the same issue as YCandy. My iPhone 5 paired immediately - then I had bluetooth on my iPhone "forget the device" - but when I try to pair with my iPad it doesn't find the speaker. I just purchased the JBL Charge wireless.
The directions that come with the speaker are just pictures - shows me how to connect everything and what each light and button means. But it doesn't explain how to make sure the device is in "pairing mode." What does that mean exactly? The power button is blinking Blue - and never pairs with my iPad.
Any suggestions?
