The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

I-tech Bluetooth stereo headset pairs but doesn't connect with mac

Asked by boognish100 in Miscellaneous Hardware

Tags: , , , ,

I just bought an 'Itech Blueband Bluetooth Stereo headset' from Hong Kong. The retailer said it was compaible with macs. I managed to pair it now using OS X Tigers bluetooth assistent with the headset profile. Thing is it pairs but doesn't connect properly. I click the headsets connect button and it says in the bluetooth preferences 'Connected - Yes' for about 5 seconds then goes back to 'Connected - No'. I never hear any audio coming through the headset! I refered to the manual, it states in troubleshooting " Interoperability between the device and other Bluetooth-enabled products is not guaranteed because it depends on compatibility". So I turned off all my other bluetooth devices which include an apple bluetooth mouse and keyboard and my bluetooth mobile. I also turned off my 'airport express' network connection. I got the same result again, so this isn't the problem. I let the headset charge fully yesterday before I used it and recharged it today again to full charge - this also did not solve it. I have reset my mac and headset many times - this did not solve the problem either.

Here's the spec;
Bluetooth Specification v1.2 Class 2
Supports Bluetooth Headset, Handsfree, and A2DP Profiles
Supports stereo audio connection with any Bluetooth host device that supports stereo audio out via Bluetooth

Anyone know how to solve this? Or know why this is happening? Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!Start Free Trial
