Anyone else having a problem getting this audio 995 to pair with the supplied USB device? I have tried 3 different machines, xp/7/8.1, none connect

Nope, your receiver is probably defective, I just plugged mine is and boom... working, great headset.

Magickly - thank you very much for the information. I actually succeeded - i did try deleting and re-pairing but I also went to Medialink and downloaded another driver and reinstalled and then viola! So, it can be done! If you look on the medialink usb bluetooth adapter product page here in Amazon, their customer support has posted in the discussions with the links for drivers and other info - I applaud them for their proactive outreach to customers.

Thanks for the feedback Ryan. In fact, i was able to solve this by using one simple piece of kit - a USB 2.0 to 3.5mm jack. It works flawlessly since the audio is now going through USB as opposed to the 3.5MM analog port on the MBP. BIRUGEAR USB 2.0 to 3.5mm Female Audio Stereo Microphone Adapter + Neck Strap Lanyard

ah, mine never worked with my sounddock either, and I don't have anything else to test it on. I've had it almost a year and it's just been sitting around. it's too bad.

Sorry that is happpening. Yet to happen to me. Might try to re-pair to computer, and also try it with another device to confirm that it is not the computer. Hope this helps

Unfortunately it doesn't connect with USB. It only has the microphone and headphone plugs for those types of jacks. There is no volume control on the unit itself either. All of that must be adjusted through the computer. Hope that helps!

I use mine that way all the time. You just need to follow the directions for the USB device and the headphones to pair the headphones. Once I made the initial pairing my headphones connect automatically to the computer when they are powered up.

I know it didn't work with Windows 7 via the USB. I used the audio out and connected it to the line input of my PC

I had no problem, you might want to check that the connector is set correct. You might want to play with the settings off your mic also. I will also do a couple of test settings and if I can duplicate the issue I will let you know.

I have yet to get the Audacity software to work as instructed with Windows 7. It will not let me designate "USB Audio Device" as the "recording device." Does not list it as an option.

After it loaded on my desktop I just pushed the connect button on the end of the USB for 4 or 5 seconds until the very small blue light on the side blinks rapidly and then did the same on the speakers until the Bluetooth light blinked rapidly. When they connect the speaker light stays solid blue and the the tiny light on the USB blinks slowly. Make sure the volume is up on the computer and the Creative speakers. On my desktop the USB "takes over" and the regular speakers on the computer are disabled. You may have to manually select the Creative speakers in the control panel. Good luck.

It works just fine with both Win 7 and Win 8.1... I will say that under either OS, if I leave the interface up, eventually the USB drops the connection with the PC and I have to power cycle the unit or unplug and plug back in the USB cable. There may be newer drivers which address this or it maybe configurations I can modify on my PC. But to your question, "how well does it work," I get smooth streaming sound when I'm working with it ... did you have specific requirements in mind?

I purchased this speaker and loved it for a month or two then it would no longer connect. I thought it was the USB receiver so I purchased a replacement. Still no connection :( . I researched trouble shooting to no avail. Speaker does work on Bluetooth though. ???

you have to change your audio input settings to USB in your "Sound" panel under System prefs.

Without knowing what hardware and operating system you're running, I can't give you a definitive answer. I know that on one of my Windows XP boxes I had to force a "discover new hardware" operation though I think the generic USB driver was all it used. I also had to go into audio properties and force the Rapoo Wireless to be my preferred audio output. Since upgrading all my systems to Windows 7 I haven't had any issue using the dongle on any of them; they automatically connect. You might (and again I don't know your hardware) check in your system BIOS or in Windows Device Manager to make sure your USB ports are not disabled. Also, try your dongle on someone else's computer; you MIGHT have a defective unit. Best of luck and I hope this was helpful.

This is on thing I've been having trouble with myself. I have the receiver connected to my home theater system and wanted to play audio from my laptop. I can connect to the receiver with my laptop's Bluetooth, but I haven't been able to get Windows to play sound through It as it doesn't show in audio devices. . I'm using Windows 7 and haven't been able to find any software in the hour I spent searching about it.

It could be your XP system is not recognizing the NTFS fie system that Win 7 formatted the DT101 with, or your XP system's USB port is not recognizing the DT100. See if a friend wil let you pug it into their system to see it his system recognizes the DT101
