Q: Pairing with Bluetooth headphones ?

I have just bought a pair of Jabra bluetooth sport headphones. I can pair the headphones with my iPhone, but I am unable to pair anything with my 42mm Apple Watch sport. If I select the Bluetooth item from Settings, the watch searches but never finds any bluetooth accessory.... (I should note I have unpaired the headphones from the iPhone before trying to pair it with the watch, and also tried it when already paired with the Iphone)

Can anyone else manage to see bluetooth devices listed for pairing on their watch ? I wonder if this is a software issue or whether I have a faulty watch ?

Cheers

There are a couple of threads on this. People have had success wiath a variety of phones, but I don't recall whether yours was one of them.

You could try a watch reset and restart - that seems to fix a few glitches

I know you fixed it but I had no problems pairing my AW with BackBeat GO2 Bluetooth headphones.

I unpaired from my phone. At times there seems to be a conflict between what device the headphones are pairing to - I don't think that is specific to these headphones.I am guessing that headphones can only be paired to one "master" at a time.

I have the same problem. I can pair my headphones to my iPad but not to my iPhone 6.
I can pair the phone to my car Bluetooth system for the telephone, but not to play my music.
