bluetooth does not work on mac book pro 2010
Hello there,
I have been trying to pair my MacBook pro with my new sound box over bluetooth but in vain. It just doesn't work. I have gone through all kind of forums, howto's and articles but nothing helped. My MacBook Pro (late 2010) just doesn't pair. In the past with old operating OS X systems it was already difficult to make it pair with discoverable bluetooth devices but it once worked with a jambox. Now nothing helps.
One additional information to the Etre Check below: I have changed my old CD-ROM drive for a SSD drive, so now I use SSD to boot up my Mac and the old HD drive mainly for not frequently used data.
Thank you very much in advance for your help.
Best,
Xbal
