Do this really work w/Dragon Naturally Speaking-10 speech software &amp; with Bluetooth enabled laptop? Is it able to stream music from iPhone? Thank you!

Yes, this headset does work with Dragon NaturallySpeaking version 10. In fact I'm dictating this response using this headset and Dragon NaturallySpeaking version 10. You must buy the Plantronics Bluetooth enabled dongle and plug it into a USB port in order for it to work properly with your "Bluetooth enabled" laptop. I originally made the mistake of buying just the headset and not the Bluetooth dongle. The dongle is specifically adapted to work with the headset. (The bluetooth radio that came with your computer is not specifically designed to work with this headset) As far streaming music, I do not know the answer to that.

I don't use Dragon, but this is a very clear, high quality headset. I think it would work with speech recognition software, no problem.

I got it to work for Skype, so I know that it will link up with Bluetooth that has mics built in, so I assume it will. I no longer have this devices, broke in couple months, but I have a similar device and I will check it out with the Microsoft voice recognition, and let you know.I have tested windows 7 speech recognition software with LG Tone HBS700 and got it to work. To get it to work you need to set it to default.

I purchased it to function with Dragon Speak software. It will do this if you have that software.

I have not tried either, yet I believe it works as a general mike. Since I use it for a vocal disability, it should work fine, yet I am unable to use it on Skype, Rosseta, Dragon, or other Application Programs, but only because my disability.

I havent had any issues with this, you may want to re-pair the bluetooth with whatever you are using it with. it works great from my Iphone, but not so much with my desktop I get interference when using it too close to my iMac mini.

This microphone works with all versions of Dragon NaturallySpeaking as well as Mac Dictate. It serves well as a starter microphone.KnowBrainer, Inc.

I have no experience with Dragon or voice recognition software, sorry I can't help you there. I'll try testing it though.

I own this "transmitter" (it's Not a "receiver"), and use it to send the audio from my iMac to my Bose BlueTooth headphones. It works with ALL of my "non- Jaybird BlueTooth devices", as well as my JayBird headphones. Your car's audio system would have to have blue tooth installed in order to stream phone calls to it. If that be the case you wouldn't use this item, which is a transmitter not a receiver, and you'd have to use your phone's blue tooth and stream the call to the car's audio. Basically this JayBird bluetooth streams (transmits) sound from, say your computer, to your Bluetooth headphones , or BlueTooth phone. To stream sound from your phone to your car's audio would require a blue tooth receiver, like the XtremeMac Receiver adapter. You plug this XtremeMac into your car's audio system and transmit from your BT phone to the car's audio. As for pairing with this unit, you pair it once and it then would connect automatically each time after that. Here's a link to the XtremeMac: http://www.amazon.com/XtremeMac-Bluetooth-Connect-Audio-Receiver/dp/B00B9NATUI/ref=sr_1_sc_1?s=electronics&ie=UTF8&qid=1389046983&sr=1-1-spell&keywords=xXremeMac+bluetooth+audio+receiver

I can't answer that as I haven't tried it. There is an app called "Dragon Remote Microphone" which might fill your need. There is also an app called "Dragon Mobile Assistant." Again, haven't used it. Not on my list of things to do. Good luck.

I love the device, but I haven't used the Dragon yet. The sound quality is amazing, so if you already use Dragon, the voice quality will be more than adequate to decipher it.

My experience dictates : ) success when using Plantronics DSP-V3. I have used two others with varying success however it may also depend on your voice, diction, inflection, accent, and training the program to understand YOU. Quite honestly I find the Apple voice recognition software included with Mountain Lion and I presume Mavericks to work equally as well as Dragon Dictate. Apple provides far superior customer service. Dragon virtually none! Save a couple hundred bucks with less frustration.

This works with Dragon Naturally Speaking PREMIUM. That's why I bought the PREMIUM. You can record on this and then feed it to Dragon. But in addtion, this recorder has proved to be invaluable in taping conference call meetings. I bought a mic for it that you put in your ear (and plug into the recorder) and then put your headset over it. It works beautifully if you get the phone call mic (about $16). It has helped so much in preparing minutes after an hour call with 16 different people giving information on numerous topics. I love this recorder. It can't understand the voice of others, so I just use it for phone calls to listen back myself. But for Dragon Premium it works great in picking up your voice. So you can record things on the go, and plug into your computer later.

I use the Bluetooth feature all the time. It works seamlessly with my iPhone. Just pair your phone with the receiver once, then whenever you want to listen to audio from your iPhone change the source to Bluetooth. Works for any audio your iPhone plays: music, audio books, audio from videos. Also it works pretty well for phone calls.

Not sure why it didn't work, on Bluetooth setting and in discoverable mode for my phone. Then with the speaker on I pressed the Bluetooth button and it paired easily. I have my iPhone and iPad connected with it. I have others connected to it at work, iPhone and android based phones. Try holding the Bluetooth button down a few seconds while your device is in discoverable mode. Other than that I don't have any other suggestions. Maybe another buyer could help?

I had great success with transmitting sounds/music from non-bluetooth devices to bluetooth receivers. It is really a marvelous device. I am looking forward to the vendor providing a device that would make landline phones transmit to sound-cancelling bluetooth headsets.

3 of 4 people found the following review helpful: Does NOT work well with iPhone, November 12, 2007 By cafehenri "cafehenri" (New York) - See all my reviews If you are like me, looking for a headset that lets you control your iPhone, listen to music, and answer calls without taking the iPhone out of your pocket, this is NOT it. I am sure this is a great headset with other devices, but NOT with iPhone. It pairs to the phone, but not the ipod on the phone. I found out after buying this product that it's because Apple's bluetooth support is pretty weak. When pair with a Macbook Pro, everything is in mono (not stereo, wow, amazing Apple support of bluetooth). From reading online I found out it's not the issue with this phone, but Apple's lack of support for wider bluetooth products, but still, I wish the product description would have said "doesn't work well with iPhone at all."
