Has anyone had any luck getting these to work on a PC (with bluetooth) running Windows 8.X?

Hi Pyrophore, When we've had customers reach out to us regarding pairing issues with Windows 8.X, they've had success following the steps prescribed in this link: http://www.wiknix.com/solved-bluetooth-device-not-working-in-windows-8-1/ All have been able to get it to work after that so I think you will have luck but please reach out to us at support@lil-gadgets.com if that doesn't solve your problem. We'd be happy to further assist. All the best, Jacquie co-founder, LilGadgets

I have been unable to get it working on an HP Z420 workstation with Windows 8 (not 8.1). Windows installs a driver automatically but the device stops before the Bluetooth stack looks like it ever gets loaded. Perhaps a driver would fix it, but I have yet to find one that works.

make sure that your bluetooth is turned on, what version of windows are you using and what are you hooking it up to an RS or a Pro??

I've seen many reviews on different bluetooth headsets and the same complaints are with itunes not working right.......evidently it may be something with itunes, not your PC.

Yes, it works. I used bluetooth headphones on 2 different pc's. After you install them check Windows Updates. I needed to do an update that made the usb's work after. good luck

No, unfortunately. You could get a little USB to Bluetooth adapter for $13:Kinivo BTD-300 Bluetooth 3.0 Low Energy USB adapter - For Windows 10 / 8.1 / 8 / 7 / Vista, Mac OS 10.3.9 or Later

Mine didn't either. assume faulty hardware because driver install wouldn't matter if windows can't even find a device to install a driver for. threw it away and the bought a bluetooth 4.0 name brand for $10 which required no drivers. plug and play.

You will need a bluetooth connection for these speakers to work. If you are connecting these speakers to your computer, it may or may not have built in bluetooth. Mine did not, I had to buy the little adapter. This one works: Kinivo Btd-400 Bluetooth 4.0 USB Adapter for Windows 8/Windows 7/Vista

I couldn't get them to work with either of my 64-bit desktops (Windows and Ubuntu). They were recognized as bluetooth adapters but I couldn't get them to connect with any of my bluetooth devices.

I'm having the same problem. I contacted the company and they said the headset isn't designed for Windows, and that you may not be able to get it to work even with the correct drivers. Annoying!!

If you are running windows Windows 7 or 8 it should work without a hitch. You would pair the speakers through the windows bluetooth setup. The drivers are standard and built into windows

I have had the same issues...I bought these and have not been able to use them because Windows 8 does not recognize them. The manual looks like it should have come with a $1.99 set of headphones as it is useless. I would highly recommend, until these headphones are upgraded, you don't buy them. I wish I had returned mine and bought some that actually works with todays technology.
