How to pair Bluetooth headphones

While wireless technology is amazing in terms of how advanced it has gotten lately, it still takes a bit of work to get your Bluetooth headphones to work with your favorite devices. Although it is advisable to consult the guide that comes with the headphones, it is easy to understand that it may not be available to you. Therefore, we have compiled a simple summary of the best way to pair wireless headphones together with your Bluetooth enabled devices. Although your devices may differ, the general steps are very similar for all devices.

The first step is to set your device in pairing mode. Your headphones will have a power switch. This generally works as a pairing switch. Pressing and holding this particular switch will put the headphones into a pairing mode that will open it to connect to a new host. Usually there will be an audible beep or LED light indicating that you are ready to pair.

The next step is to enable Bluetooth on your host drive and search for accessible connections. If it is not already enabled, be sure to enable the Bluetooth antenna on the host device. After that, look for an option in the connections menu to search for Bluetooth earbuds devices within range. If your headphones were successfully placed in pairing mode, the name will appear in your host gadget list. Each unit is a little different in this regard, but you can find these selections by navigating through the connection menus.

Last but not least, you'll need to plug in your headphones. Just choose the headphones from the menu of your pairing device. You may then request a PIN number, which is included with your listening device. This ensures that random people cannot connect to your host device. In case you have lost the pairing pin, you can usually find it by searching for your headset manual online. As soon as the device pairs for the first time, it's easy to connect in the future just by turning it on.

You are now ready to enjoy your video or music from your Bluetooth enabled devices! Pairing your Bluetooth headphones can be a bit more challenging than simply plugging them in, but the freedom of wireless listening will certainly pay off the small investment of time it takes to set it up.
