Q: Bluetooth problem with OSX Yosemite: Magic Mouse and Keyboard

Same here: 15" MacPro Juli 2014, Iphone 5s, iPad AIR owner, NO BLUETOOTH working! I am going back to my previous SW version this doesn't bring anything for me only irritation and waste of time. Poorly tested, Released to fast, and Damaging for apples reputation. Solution should be provided by APPLE , not by the community and so called 'workarounds' appear hardly to be working. APPLES HW is way to expensive  to have to deal with this kind of misery. Won't make the mistake of upgrading to fast again EVER.

same problem, MacBook Retina 15" mid 2012

connections problems, i have to restart my mac every hour... APPLE DO SOMETHING!!!

I have a  MacBook Pro Retina 15 end 2013 and got the same problem this morning after updating to Yosemite.

What I did is disconnecting my all my bluetooth devices one by one, until the problem went away, to isolate if there was one in particular that was causing the problem.

For me, the lag and disconnection seemed to be cause by the Knock App. After I closed it, my problem went away and never came back.

Hi,

I find a solution. If you have a notebook, go far away from the bluetooth devices, delete the devices in the bluetooth control,

reboot. After the new connect, the problems are gone.

Best regards,

I tried that - works temporarily, until the connection is lost. Then re-connecting doesn't work...

I'm finding that turning of wifi is the only thing that works just now to make the bluetooth device identifiable. Weird....

So here's a painful revelation

(I've got a late 2012 Mac Mini 2.5GHz with 8GB of RAM, I use a Creative D200 Bluetooth speaker, Apple bluetooth keyboard and mouse from a 2012 iMac)

I decided to upgrade from my Crucial m4 256GB SSD to a new Samsung 850 EVO 256GB drive, so I installed Yosemite fresh on the Samsung, then used the Migration Assistant to restore my apps, settings, and docs..Everything's fine now

Before, I had .5-6 seconds of audio delay on the bluetooth on YouTube, Pandora, VLC, any browser, any app, the keyboard and mouse would occasionally skip and delay for up to a few seconds, especially if the CPU was busy.

I had done all of the ideas found in this thread before, and they had temporarily helped but it was still noticeable that it wasn't perfect, but now, I've used the 'audio and video sync' videos on youtube to watch the blips/flashes and the audio and video are in perfect sync again. I've even waited a couple hours of playing with it to ensure everything works

So, what might be a good idea is to do a time machine backup and check and make sure it worked, command-R on startup to recovery mode, reinstall your OS fresh, choosing after the install to restore from your time machine backup

The earlier suggestion to reinstall..I wasn't happy with, but knowing that you can do it this way, that's fine to me

Good luck folks, I'll write back if there's anything else I notice

Hi, I have exactly the same problem with my magic mouse. I am even bought new Logitec mouse for mac and still the same, thought something wrong with my mouse.

I use app "Memory clean" it's a little bit helps with mouse, but still annoying...

I have MacBook Pro (Retina, 15-inch, Early 2013), 2.8 GHz Intel Core i7, 16 GB 1600 MHz DDR3.

Hi everyone,

I`m having troubles with my MacBook Pro Retina Mid 2012 and my bluetooth devices on Osx Yousemite..

I have a Logitech Boombox speakers and a Logitech Wireless Headset, and they don't auto reconnect anymore.. Even I try to remove and pair again, they don't get connect until I shutdown and turn on my mac..

With Mavericks, all works fine..

Tks,

Rodrigo.

I have the same issue with the rMBP 2012 I had deleted my magic mouse from the bluetooth menu then I did a repair permissions on the start up disk, after it completed I went to mouse in system preferences and turned the magic mouse on and the compter found it and connected. Who knows if it will stay working but it's worth a shot.

This is Matt, who reinstalled and restored the data

Its been perfect ALL DAY

Just now, 14 hours after reinstalling and using the migration assistant, it kicked off the bluetooth speaker 3 times in 5 minutes, now with a .5-6 second daily again

ARGH!
FIX THIS NOW!

I just updated my MBP to Y from M without any problems. After reading all the posts I decided to turn off Bluetooth before installing Y and see what happens. I then turned bluetooth on after the installation was complete and have no issues...

Hi everyone,

I have a mid 2012 mac book pro 13' after upgrade to Yosemite, want to try handsoff with my iphone 6+ but the bluetooth won't connect.

anyone has this problem?

Hello Apple People. Curious to understand how far away are your bluetooth devices from your machine? I have a mid-2011 mini and experienced the same problems as described. However if I search and use my bluetooth device within a few inches of the mini, the bluetooth devices can be discovered and used normally. If I move the bluetooth device more than 10-20 inches away from the mini, they are not able to be discovered and are jerky and lag.  Try moving the bluetooth devices closer and see if it improves or not?

Have tried positioning my bluetooth device right next to Macbook but to no avail. The only thing that repeatedly works for me is to switch off wifi, reconnect, then switch wifi back on. Works every time....
