Headphones (Soundcore Q20+) work perfectly with iPhone (13 mini). Also work if connect via cable to MacBook Air (M1 2020). MBA Bluetooth has worked with other Bluetooth devices. It appear that it's only these Headphones that doesn't appear and can't connect.
suggestions? Thanks.
MacBook Air (M1, 2020)
If the headphones are not multipoint Bluetooth connect capable (being paired to multiple devices simultaneously), then you will need to unpair them from the current Bluetooth connection and follow that by pairing with the MacBook Air (uncabled). Otherwise, the device they are currently paired with will always win when closer to the headphones than the MacBook Air.
Also, keep your headphone firmware updated as these become available.

Hello!
I’m assuming you’ve already seen and followed this article?:
If a Bluetooth headset doesn’t work with Mac - Apple Support
If so, you do, currently, have other Bluetooth devices that appear without issue? Thanks.
Thanks. Yes, I had read that first.
Think I solved it. As I said, the headphones work fine with my iPhone. Even though I wasn't listening to anything on the iPhone, I tried to see what happens, if I disconnected iPhone. The headphones appeared on the Mac, and tested. headphones work with Mac.
Simple. headphones appear on only 1 device at a time. Apparently.
My Sony headphones and earbuds (WH-1000XM4/WF-1000XM4) are multipoint Bluetooth enabled and one can control which devices they are paired through the Sony Headphones connect iOS app. If two Macs are on, you will hear the Sony devices speak that they are pairing with device one and after a brief pause pairing with device two.
Just a brief female voice indicating the bluetooth devices are fully charged when first connected, or announcing the tapped transition between noise cancellation states, or power off. That's the extent of my voice experiences.
Thanks. that explains what I discovered by chance.
Wow. no surprise that could design headphones that can switch, but don't know that i'm ready to have them talk. actually I'm surprised by quality of headphones and Bluetooth.
👍
