Can't connect my HK onyx studio speaker to my laptop

2015-11-21 Thread Michael Amaro
Hello Listers,

Just yesterday I bought myself a harman Kardon Onyx Studio 1 bluetooth speaker. 
 I had no problems connecting it to my iPhone 5s.  How ever, I can't connect it 
to my windows 7 64 bit laptop. I knowfor a factthat the bluetooth is working on 
my laptop.  Because I am able to connect to my jambox bluetooth speaker.  If 
any one has this particular Harman Kardon Onyx Studio speaker.  How have you 
managed to connect it to your computer?  How easy is it to do so?

Thanks
Michael

Hi!

Depends on what Soundlink we’re talking about, I have the Soundlink Mini II 
which can be updated through a USB port.

To be honest I’ve not even looked for an update for it let alone do I know if 
one is available, the speaker does what I bought it for and that’s all I 
worried about.

Having said all that my Soundlink Mini II was purchased over 15 years ago and 
another series of Mini speakers have replaced it since, there’s a new updated 
Soundlink Mini which has a hands free speaker phone as part of its design and 
that unit is shore to have some sort of update facility but again no idea if 
any update is available.

Then there’s the Sound Link Mini Colour which is another series altogether.

I suggest that those wishing to attempt an update on their Soundlink product 
consult the documentation as to the steps required, the documentation is easily 
accessible through the Bose Web Site.

I’ve updated my Soundtouch Portable a number of times with a procure on the 
unit and the update is performed automatically by holding down a couple of 
buttons - the Sounctouch when operating is always connected to a Wi-Fi network 
as a rule so why not update the product automatically - .

Hi!

there are two lists you might wish to subscribe to to have your question 
answered specifically.

There’s a blind-ham list which might be able to help and the vi-android list 
where members may be aware of the App or one of a similar nature.

details on the blind hams list?

strange bluetooth issue please help?

2015-11-21 Thread Michael Amaro
Hello Listers,

my windows 7 64 bit laptop,does connect to my bluetooth speaker.  At least it 
says its connected.  How ever the sound doesn't come out of the speaker it 
self.  It still comes out of the laptop on board soundcard.  How can I get the 
sound to come out of the bluetooth speaker itself?

Thanks

RE: strange Bluetooth issue please help?

2015-11-21 Thread Adrian Spratt
I tried this the other week and it worked. With the blue tooth speaker on, go 
into the control panel, then sound. I do this from Win7's Windows search field.

Press enter on sound. If your system is like mine, you'll find that the first 
item is a list of speakers, headphones, etc. associated with your system. Note 
that my speaker is identified by my system as headphones. Highlight the 
Bluetooth device, then tab to the default option. Make it the default. 

I was afraid that by making my Bluetooth speaker the default, my system 
speakers would be knocked out, but it wasn't the case. When my Bluetooth 
speaker is on, now the system recognizes it. When I turn it off, my system 
reverts to my system speakers.

I hope I've written this clearly enough.
