Bluetooth audio lag

Seems they have seeded 10.10.1 to Developers, but all the stories I've seen say it is concentrating on fixing WiFi and Mail. That's not to say the BT issue won't be included, or fixed incidentally, that's just what I've be seeing.

Any Developers following this thread ?

I open a ticket on bugreport.apple.com the 10/23/2014 and since then the problem never appear...

I don't know what to think, I did nothing special and the Filevault has finished long time ago !

Yes, that's weird, very weird.

By the way, Apple has closed my incident because it is a duplicate problem of another one...

;-)

Dear Apple,

What the ****? I've been following this thread for weeks hoping for a resolution. I've tried all of the suggestions several times, and finally want to add my voice to the throngs of frustrated supporters. I've been unable to use my bluetooth headphones for weeks now and I really miss them. To be clear, they still work, but the sound is so choppy that it's like listening to a radio station that you can't quite tune into. Only this is worse, because I pay to stream my music and shows. I move around while I'm working so I can't use wired headphones. Please don't ignore this issue. We have nowhere else to turn.

Sincerely,

Still Waiting

I have the same problem. Audio out of sync with Phillips SHB9150WT Bluetooth Headset.

Also, and just as annoying, it wont reconnect after sleep, no matter what you try.

Only a reboot lets it connect again.

I was told not to upgrade to Yosemite by friends...

I have this same issue. I have reported the issue to Apple via the Developer Bug Reporter and they got back to me asking for a diagnostic report, which I have now provided. Funnily enough, since running that report the problem has got 10 times worse!

I am having the same issue and it is so frustrating to not be able to watch videos without a major lag.

I look at this page and there are over 15,000+ views and over 176 replies.

Apple... are you listening?

this is kind of a big deal... please fix it asap!

Same problem here, have a 2013 macbook pro retina with a blue tooth connection to NAD D3020 ampifier and have lag with any type of audio. Spotify, online radio, streaming TV and local movies (which get progressively worse while watching. Thought it was me but not. Apple please do something about this, not very happy with my first mac!

I´m glad this worked for you.

But even if it had worked for me and everyone else I don´t think we should settle for such a solution since there´s no reason for Apple to allow the webbrowser to interfere with connecting a device, or the dashboard to interfere with transferring bluetooth-data. It would be like allowing my kitchen sink to interfere with the headlights on my car..

My computer (MacPro mid2009) works alright, but feels at least 3 years older after upgrading to Yosemite. I get half- and full error-situations I never got before, typical for a computer that is overloaded with something, be it buggy software or a very demanding task a user has started. Upgrading the OS should make the computer both "younger", more responsive and (even) more stable. I fear Apple is losing the discipline that Steve Jobs was known for and that is necessary to fuel quality in the computer world. If these things are not taken seriously I fear that more things will start breaking in mysterious ways.

kind regards

Im having bluetooth issues after upgrading to Yosemite as well. Im on late 2013 intel iMac and smc reset + pram did absolutely nothing. Also disabled dashboard, but it had no effect on the problem. With Mavericks I could connect my mac to my Sony stereo that has bluetooth and listen to my music that way, but now everytime I try to do that, I can hear music for 1-2 seconds and it immediately cuts off. This is a really, really huge issue, because I also listen to my productions from Logic X this way to see how the mix sounds on basic stereos and right now its impossible.

ha ha, not sure if i should laugh or cry. 10.10.1 has brought the lag BACK on my MacBook.

It was completely fixed when i disabled the dashboard in 10.10.0. Now the dahsboard is still disabled, but the lag is back. Fantastic.

Can anyone tell me how to restore Mavericks? I have completely lost patience with this now. It's just an unbelievable performance by Apple that they should release such software without it being 100% tested and functional, and then ignore the gripes of their loyal customers.

I did everything suggested in this topic, but the audio still lags and stutters. The bluetooth audio receiver works great with my other laptop (Windows) and my iPad, so I'm pretty sure it has something to do with my macbook.

I'm with you, readytorun. I have two MacBook Pro 2011 models. One is running Mavericks and the other is Yosemite. Mavericks is great - I rarely have issues. For the life of me, I have no clue why I updated to Yosemite. I can't listen to music or watch video. God forbid I try to do two tasks at the same time. And now, every time my cell phone rings, my **** laptop starts ringing and won't ever stop - even long after the phone call is over. UGH.

I agree with readytorun, I was stoked with Mavericks, everything was running so great, I couldn't wait to upgrade and see what Yosemite was capable of... bad move. I just wish I was technically capable of downgrading to Mavericks, but sadly, I'm not tech-savvy and would probably mess things up royally...
