I'm using the Beats Pill 2.0 as a speaker for my MacBook Air, the bluetooth connection drops if I don't play sound for a while, it is annoying having to reconnect it every time I play something.
How do I make them stay connected?
Also, how do I make the MacBook connect automatically to the Pill when I turn on the MacBook? It used to connect automatically to the iHome when I turn it on.
MacBook Air, OS X Yosemite (10.10.2)
Hi Stephlovesapple,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities. Based on what you stated, it sounds like an accessory loses connection and does not automatically reconnect. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help the issue.

I don't think its the interference, because it does connect properly when played continuously, I have reset the wifi base station too.
The Bluetooth connects perfectly, but when left inactive for a while, the Pill drops the bluetooth, and then it turns itself off, I have to go turn it on again.
I never had this issue with the old iHome, it's always connected.
