I'm having a hard time getting these speakers to connect via Bluetooth to either my iTouch or iPad after software updates. Please help!

Hi TKOC,Thanks for the question. Were the Apple products connecting before the update? If it is an update issue, perhaps a call to Apple could resolve this. Otherwise, the speakers could think they are still connected to a device. Like Frank suggested, unplug the speakers for 15 minutes. Turn off bluetooth on all devices that you paired with these speakers. You may even want to power off those devices. Then restart everything. Hopefully this will take care of it. Please contact AV-Express if we can be of further assistance.

I have the same issue. Here is what I did. Unplug the speakers. Turn off as many blue tooths in the home as possible. Then plug in speakers Then turn on ONE blue tooth device. Sync as normal. Under Bluetooth settings. They seem to like one device and won't switch unless you unplug them

Not too sure, I don't seem. to have this problem. My speaker is paired to an Android phone. The only thing I can think of is that the speaker may be too far away from your IPAD

I had a similar problem my daughter and I had both paired our iPhones to the JBL speaker and what we had to do was turn off one So the other could connect or just disable Bluetooth for the one that you do not want to stream music from. Try that it may help

This gave me some trouble as well...but here is how I got it to work Turn OFF Bluetooth on iPad After charging the headset.....press button on top and wait until it blinks red/blue.....don't stop pressing that button when you see it blinking blue....keep holding it until you see it blinking red/blue Turn on Bluetooth in iPad You will see your new device Click to pair Then enjoy

Possibly an incompatibly issue. they MAY only work with I devices. Try plugging them into an iPhone/ipad/iPhone and see if that fixes it. If it doesn't, then most likely defective. In that case e-mail the company.

It me again, I was able to set up the speaker with my daughter's iPhone5, easily done. Then I attempted to connect my laptop. It was discovered and connected but still would not play. Weird???? Hope you get some other responses

Make sure the speaker is charged. Turn off the Bluetooth on the phone. Shut down the phone and restart. Turn on Bluetooth again in setting and attempt to connect the device. I have a iPhone 4 & 5S and that is what I do when I lose the connection. Try it a couple of times, eventually it should paired. Hope this work.

it all depends on the receiver you have connecting these ... you either need to have a Y Adaptor that can connect from the headphone jack to RCA wires that would then connect to the back of the receiver or have a receiver that allows bluetooth connect which is how I have it set up and I listen to music from my iphone and ipad all the time

Just worked for me, thanks. Remember to get the earphones into pairing mode before you try this, turning them on won't necessarily start the pairing going. I didn't realise that hence it wasn't picking anything up the way it did with my iPhone automatically. Just to be sure I held the power button long enough until pairing started THEN I turned on the Bluetooth on my mini ipad and it paired right away.

Then just use the include speaker cable until apple updates firmware. Works fine with all my Bluetooth 3&4 devices.

Have not used that feature yet as I bought the pair to use when catching up on Masterpiece Theater & HBO. If you call the iHome company they are very helpful. I assume you have already mated the speakers to your iPad, perhaps you must also mate your iPhone to the iHome also, then push the button on the far right. My first speakers went dead but Amazon replaced them and I have not had any more problems. They are excellent for the price. Good luck.

Hi, I would also like to know if I can pair them with the last version of the Ipod touch. Can anybody answer us? Cheers.

I had the same problem, it worked once then stopped. Paired great with both my husband's iPhone and mine but not the iPad. After many frustrating tries my husband turned off Bluetooth on all of our devices, even removing a few from the list, turned the speakers and Bluetooth off and on (many times) and finally he was successful. Such a frustrating experience. I would love to know what causes this.

Make sure your iPad wifi connection is turned on then hold the power button on the JBL for a few seconds.It should make a sound when it connects.I had trouble at first pairing to my phone but it did work.

Once they are charged,connect them to your ipad etc and be sure to flip on the "on" switch on each speaker May be a loose contact so unplug and try again. Hope this helps.

apparently this unit is only compatible with Google Play and not the Apple store... Hard to believe but true.. personally with the type of high quality bluetooth speakers available today I would be looking that route since you have iPhone.
