I have tried holding down the wireless button on the Bose remote control for the soundlink but still no joy, help anyone please
iPad 2
You've got bluetooth turned on on the iPad and searching for devices to pair to when you're holding down the wireless button ?
Thanks for coming back to me,
Yes exactly as you describe, iPad searching, wireless button on remote held down and Bose wave screen flashing "connecting" then stops and says "no signal"
Any ideas?
Just talked to Bose, they admit A bug!
Quick fix. Hold down the mute button until all lights flash.
(that's like pulling the battery). When you turn the speaker back on you will be golden!
This didn't work for me but found the following posted by another member did the job....I called the Bose helpline - you have to make sure both devices are "discoverable" - the Ipad becomes discoverable automatically when you go to Settings>General>Bluetooth (see how it say "Now discoverable" under Devices). For the Wave radio you have to get Soundlink going first with the remote (i.e. Displays "Connecting") and HOLD DOWN PRESET KEY 5 for about 10 seconds until it shows "Discoverable" on the display. Then you should see the Bose Soundlink in your Ipad Bluetooth Device list. Hope that solves your problem
Thanks I did this and problem solve thanks a lot for sharing. I love my Bose system I have been not using it because of this. It was so easy thanks for sharing !
I just want to mention once it appears discoverable on your iPad on Setttings-General-Bluetooth once it finds Bose wave system make sure on the right side it says connected. It took me like 4 times maybe I didn't do right but once it recognizes Bose on your iPad just need to make sure it say connected and it appear not paired still hasn't connected it found the device but not connected that is why at first it didn't work.
I hope I make sense but definitely this is the solution. Now when I read the original post from 2011 and it solve the problem on my new iPad air totally works :)
How do I connect my ipad2 to my Bose soundlink
