Bluetooth audio lag

I just had a chat with somebody in the support chat. S/he said s/he'll make a note and I'm getting a call back, too.I think this might get more attention if as many people as possible bug their team.

This is how you do it for free even if you don't have a protection plan:

1. Go to https://getsupport.apple.com/

2. Select your device/problem

3. Select you'd like to chat

4. When prompted, enter your serial number

5. You might either still have a protection, then just go. If not you'll be prompted to pay for the chat.

6. Don't pay, just select "Request and exception."

7. As the reason for the exception choose "I recently purchased Mac OS X"

8. Tada. State your case.

Hello

yep, reported on every possible channel I could find. No angry talk, nothing like that, just calling their attention to the detail

now, as I follow most of those websites, I also know that, even after it's been reported on them, it still takes a while for apple to react. The only thing making them work fast is a lot of feedback. Just a few guys won't do it. Which is perfectly normal, given the number of clients they have. That is why we have to get leverage on this thing, so that they can distinguish it from every other guy who drops his Mac and starts saying Yosemite broke his laptop.

I have the same problem, macbook pro late 2009.

Having same issue. Macbook Pro mid 2010. After updating to Yosemite, whenever i play videos with audio over bluetooth the audio is delayed after a couple of minuts and the delay increases the longer it plays. If I pause the video, sound keeps playing until i catches up with the imaging. The problem is not consist, but it occurs very often, like 4 out of 5 times.

Same, mid 2013 MBA...

Ridiculous that this wasn't fixed since BETA IN JUNE!!

This is the last Apple product I will own until Steve is reincarnated and takes the helms once more. 3rd times a charm, right?

Have the same issue ever since the first developer preview. But for me this only happens in closed clamshell with an external display. If the lid is open then bluetooth audio is OK.

late 2009 macbook 13"

Also seeing this issue on Yosemite. Was perfectly fine with Mavericks, Mountain Lion and Lion. On my macbook with Yosemite I've tried with a few BT speakers and all of them are having sound lag. I then connect those BT speakers to my other macbook running Lion and they are work normally without lag.

Hi,

iMAC 8,1

I specially create an account to complain about this. Heavy audio lag and stuttering when watching youtube and spotify. Please fix this!!

Guys, please stop posting "Same problem here".
Ok - good to know - a lot of people (maybe everybody) who has a bluetooth speaker and/or headphone has this audio lag problem.

No real solution yet, only downgrading to Mavericks (a part of buying a not apple product and trash the one you have).

Please just fulfill the form here: https://www.apple.com/feedback/macosx.html

Let's hope Apple will solve the problem soon.

Have a good day!

Has anybody tried complete reinstall? Also I wonder if there users without this issue

Same Problem here with my Bluetooth Speaker: Harman-Kardon Aura

MacBook Pro (13 Zoll, Mid 2010)

It starts in sync but the delay increases with the time.

Mid 2013 Macbook Air - stuttering and lag.

Def. a yosemite thing. That and the WindowServer process going nuts and slowing the system to a halt are ruining the upgrade experience pretty bad..

Same here. Basically upgrading to Yosemite was the worst thing that's ever happened to me.

I see that AppleInsider and at least one other site has picked this up.

Also, I got a request on my bug report to provide some Bluetooth debug info, which I provided. So hopefully things will be happening.

Similar issues here too. Right after updating to Yosemite, I can't watch anything while using my bluetooth speaker, it just skips and lags so you can't hear anything. I've tried restarting my computer twice, disabling/enabling bluetooth, Pairing the speakers again, but nothing works.

Mac (27-inch, Mid 2011)
