Q: Bluetooth will only connect to Beats Studio Wireless for 8 sec., and no audio option in settings.
Any Advice?
Bluetooth will connect to Beats studio headphones, but only for about 8 seconds and will not show up as option in sound settings or airplay. 2011 MBP, using a usb dongle so i can utilize bluetooth 4. i tried with another pair of bluetooth headphones and same issue. The bluetooth dongle is comparable with my Mac Mini (2011). I am running a thunderbolt connection to a display because the screen is cracked. The usb dongle is this one: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00F85ZPIY/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF 8&psc=1
