Trouble pairing Mac 10.8.5 with BOSE Soundlink Mini

I have trouble paring my iMac 10.8.5 with BOSE SoundLink Mini

Same problem here. My Bose Soundlink Mini worked fine with Snow Leoprd, but Mavericks can't find it at all. I had thought my upgrade to Mavericks yesterday had shown the robustness of the new OS, but apparently not.
Is there a fix for this?

  • Z30 won't work with Bose SoundLink Mini

    Does anyone have a problem playing music to the Bose SoundLink Mini via bluetooth? This is the first time I try pairing my Z30 to the Bose speaker using bluetooth. It says the Bose speaker is connected however I cannot hear any music coming out of the speaker. All I hear is this short pulsing sounds. I'm able to pair my iPhone and play the music fine. I'm wondering if this is a blackberry bluetooth issue?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    I used it with Z10 and now use it with my Passport. Also use it with PlayBook.
    Given the speaker works with another device, I agree the problem is with the Z30 and not the speaker.
    Have you checked for any other audio problems? Strictly a problem over bluetooth?
    Have you rebooted and tested?
    Have you tried a soft reset and tested?
    Have you deleted the pairing, re-paired, and tested?

  • Skipping problem with Bose Soundlink Mini

    I have an iPod touch 5 and have recently bought a Bose Soundlink Mini. I had no problems setting it up but am finding it virtually unusable due to the constant skipping. Can anyone help?

    - Reset the Bose unit
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings. You will also have to rejoin all wifi networks

  • Hi! I have an x-mini headset which im having trouble pairing to my iPhone 5s with bluetooth, any tips please?

    Hi! I have an x-mini headset which im having trouble pairing to my iPhone 5s with bluetooth, any tips please?

    Cellular calling doesn't yet work reliably.
    Make sure you've followed the instructions in this support article. Note that both iCloud and FaceTime on the Mac must be signed in to the same Apple ID; those are two separate steps. Also note that the Mac and the phone must be connected to the same Wi-Fi network. Ethernet won't work. Trying to pair the phone to the Mac as a Bluetooth device won't work either.
    If cellular calling still doesn't work, sign out of FaceTime and sign back in. You may have to do the same on the phone. The email address that you use as your Apple ID must be able to receive FaceTime calls.

  • Pairing bluetooth Bose soundlink mini

    I have a HP Pavilion g6 and want to pair it with a Bose Soundlink Mini bluetooth speaker - it doesn't work.  Any help would be appreciated.  Very frustrating.   It paired with my iPad and iPhone easily.

    After a whole day of searching and digging I have found the solution.
    Uninstall the old driver (remove the driver) and install the driver from the link:

    It takes a bit to install, but after that it works perfectly!
    Peace out!

  • Itunes is not playing (or freezing) when I turn on my Bluetooth speaker (Bose Soundlink Mini)

    itunes is not playing (or freezing) when I turn on my Bluetooth speaker (Bose Soundlink Mini)
    Every time I turn on the speaker, itunes freezes up and never star playing the only way it might work is restarting the computer. I own a macbook pro retina display 15" late 2013, i've run it for malware,  viruses, verified the disk and everything seems normal, so i'm guessing the problem is with itunes.
    I need some help with this issue.
    Thanks
    Hector

    Works if I turn off the Mac bluetooth (top of the screen - click on the Bluetooth icon to turn off / on) and then turn it back on.  After that I can connect and play.

  • Apple TV and Bose soundlink mini

    Hi,
    I have an Apple TV (3) and a Bose Soundlink mini.
    My question is if it is possible to get the picture from iTunes to the TV (while streaming a movie) but the sound to the soundlink?
    Thankful for answers.

    The soundlink mini is a bluetooth speaker. Apple TV requires an airplay capable speaker, like the Soundlink Air.
    Also, you can't airplay audio and video separately.

  • Ipad/Mac not working with Bose Soundlink after upgrade to Mountain Lion

    Since upgrading to Mountain Lion, I can not play through my Bose Soundlink from my Mac and iPad? It finds the device via Bluetooth, connects, but will not play.Anyone else?

    Try to reset the Soundlink. To do this just press the "mute" button for 10 seconds... when all indicators lights appears release the button and you are set.
    Just try to connecto again.
    Hope it works for you as it worked for me.
    Best,

  • I'm having trouble pairing a PayPal Here device with my iPhone 6

    I am having trouble connecting anything via Bluetooth to my iPhone 6+
    Last night it was pairing with a PayPal Here device however I had to remove it from the list of Bluetooth devices as it was not working properly. There was a software update being downloaded to my phone but it was stuck on step 2 of 5 for over an hour.
    Tonight my Bluetooth is not connecting to anything - the wheel has been spinning, trying to connect, for more than an hour.
    I am unsure if the device needs to be updated or the app needs to be updated
    Please help

  • Bose SoundLink Mini Speaker is refusing to pair with Windows 8.1 x64.‏

    I tried to connect my Bluetooth speaker to my HP Probook 4530s and got no farther than “Bose Mini Soundlink Ready to Pair”.But, when I click on the “Pair” button, it takes about a minute or so to display this message:
    “That didn't work. Try again and make sure your entertainment device is still discoverable.”
    OS - Windows 8.1 x64.
    I tried to update the Bose_BLUETOOTH_Speaker_UpdateBut it does not go beyond the screen which says..."The update process will proceed automatically once the device is detected"
    It pairs and connect successfully with my Samsung N5100 & GT-S6102.
    It seems the  Bluetooth hardware being used does not have the right driver support for the A2DP profile.
    Your advice on the above is highly appreciated.
    Thank you.

    Finding solutions here seems to be a very rare occurance.

  • Flash install trouble on Mac 10.8.3 with Safari

    I am having trouble with the latest Flash update. I go to install it and half way through the install it tells me that I need to close my Safari browser. But my browser is closed, not open. I even tried restarting my computer and trying again but I still got the same error message. What do I do?

    Seriously ?  no ideas ? 
    I did some more testing and Flash is really messed up with this computer. Chrome seems to work, but performance is not what it should be.
    I went back to a 10.X version of flash with same effect.  went back to Firefox 17 ...same effect. 
    It almost seems like hardware...however Chrome works..
    When in Safari or Firefox.  Right click brings up Flash settings..but I am unable to select anything in the panel.. cant click off hardware accleration..i cant even close the panel. (on chrome i can select all settings) Video flickers constantly in Safari.. wont play at all in Firefox.

  • Having trouble pairing my iPhone and iTunes with Remote.

    So, I know that these are to the ways to use Remote. When trying to pair with an iTunes library, steps 1 and 2 work but when I open iTunes on my computer, the Remote button does not appear. When trying to pair using Home Sharking, steps 1-4 work but my library does not show up for me to select. I am using an iPhone 5S and MacBook Pro, both with the most current versions of iTunes.

    Hey brenyo!
    Here is an article that will help you troubleshoot this issue with your Remote pairing:

  • Trouble using .mac mail alias's with Panther Mail

    I am using Mac Mail 1.3.11 (Panther) here and have a .mac account. When I compose mail, the Account field in the header only allows me to select my main .mac account name. This seems to defeat the purpose of alias's - if I have to send mail from my root account name. The only workaround I found is to create a seperate mail account for the alias. But then of course if I only check the alias, I miss mail to my root account name. And if I check both, my Inbox contains double of nearly everything.
    Any suggestions? Or do I have to shell out the $$ to buy Tiger for this computer too, just to enable alias's?
    Thanks

  • Problem with iTunes and Bose SoundLink Mini

    Hello everyone,
    After upgrading to Yosemite (10.10) I'm dealing with an annoying problem when using my bluetooth speaker with the macbook pro.
    Whenever I disconnect the speaker (by pressing its power button) or when it disconnects by itself (when it stays unused for a longer period), the sound gets back to the internal speakers like normal but in that moment iTunes (12.0.1.26) starts playing randomly, no matter if its opened or closed.
    The problem continues despite:
    - macbook restart;
    - removing the speaker from bluetooth devices and reconnecting it from scratch;
    - turning off IR connection from system preferences;
    This wasn't the case for previous OS versions.
    Can anyone help me with this?
    Thank you
    Cristian
