Q: Bluetooth audio lag

Update [10.10.2 (build 14C68m)] is here.

I'm downloading this now, how is it installed? Do you just click it?

I'm sad but not surprised to report, after installing the update per ugofrompadova's instructions, I still have the same audio skippy problem. It surfaced immediately upon playing audio. I'm not sure yet if there is any improvement on how it was before, but after the first 10 minutes, it seems the same. Definitely not fixed.

Same problem. Endless fiddling with bluetooth bitpool preferences hasn't fixed anything. Resetting PRAM and SMC and combinations of all those efforts didn't fix it either.. In addition to the audio delay to my bluetooth speakers (Vizio sound bar), eventually there will be some terribly irritating popping and interrupting in the audio. The popping problem showed up sparsely before I upgraded to Lion, but now it happens much more often. Before upgrading, I chalked it up to limitations of bluetooth, now, I'm pretty sure it's an OS problem. This is a subpar level of performance this OS is displaying and I hope it gets patched soon.

VIZIO S3821w-C0 38-inch 2.1 Home Theater Sound Bar

OS X 10.10.1

Irritation: vast

I have to say, i'm really glad I found people that can relate to my problem. But I to have the same problem you guys are having and I have no solution. This happens randomly for me and while it doesn't happen all the time its quite annoying that this problem exists. I hope there is a patch REALLY SOON, but i'm not going to hold my breath on this one.

I had the same prob with my soundbar. So I just bought a Lenovo Yoga and am never looking back to Apple.

Mac has been doing some shady things of late... updates that dont run ANY of my paid programs anymore and cause my battery to 'need service', incompatibility with other slightly older mac products, making my external that holds my time machine backups not work..

They have just turned to money-grubbing idiots. They had such a great product before... It's just turned to s*** now.

Thanks for the link! This update fixed my audio problem and it works great now.

This fixed the problem for me completely, thank you! I run Better Touch Tool, and it doesn't seem to work properly with this update yet, so I had to disable it to have my multitouch gestures working, just incase anyone else has this issue.

Hi mate,

Thank you, after many weeks now  it is working!

The update helped me!

I still had some issues after using this update. Is this like a pre-release update or something?

I reverted back to 10.10.1

Still hoping for help.

Same with us.

We have a small language learning plattform, our teachers use yosemite and bluetooth headsets.

Skype and google hangouts lag horrible. we can not work professionally, we need a solution quick!!

any help appreciated.

regards from spain.

The update works for me 100%. And the Bluetooth-Bug seem to be fixed. I have not found a reason to return to 10.10.1.

Out of those who updated to 10.10.2 and claim to have no problems now, are you by chance using any Bluetooth devices aside from the speakers? My speakers are possibly improved on 10.10.2, but still having issues… however, when I use my Bluetooth mouse in addition to the speakers, I get horrible skipping and cracking almost immediately.

Cmd+Option+P+R worked for me
