To connect your Bose headphones to your laptop, you will need to follow these steps:
- Turn on the headphones. If the headphones have a power button, press it. If the headphones turn on automatically when they are plugged in, skip this step.
- Put the headphones in pairing mode. To do this, press and hold the power button for 3 seconds. The LED indicator will flash blue.
- Turn on Bluetooth on your laptop. You can usually do this by going to the Settings menu and turning on Bluetooth.
- Search for the headphones. The headphones will appear in the list of available devices.
- Select the headphones. Once the headphones are selected, they will be connected to your laptop.
If you are having trouble connecting the headphones, here are some things you can try:
- Make sure that the headphones are turned on and in pairing mode.
- Make sure that Bluetooth is turned on on your laptop.
- Make sure that the headphones are within range of your laptop. Bluetooth has a limited range of about 30 feet.
- Restart your laptop and the headphones. This can sometimes clear up any temporary glitches that might be preventing the connection.
- Reset the headphones. To do this, press and hold the power button for 10 seconds. The headphones will turn off and then back on.
- Unpair and then re-pair the headphones with your laptop. To do this, go to the Bluetooth settings on your laptop and remove the headphones from the list of paired devices. Then, try pairing the headphones again.
If you have tried all of the above and you are still having trouble connecting the headphones, you can contact Bose support for help. They will be able to troubleshoot the problem and help you get the headphones connected to your laptop.
I hope this helps!
