Just received this unit, having incredibly tough time pairing it. No connectivity with either iPhone 5s, iPad or even Win7 Dell laptop - suggestions??

I believe that this model has the old Bluetooth technology and it will not work with iPad or iPhone. I returned my model and purchased Leica DISTO E7500i Laser Distance Meter With Disto Sketch IPad IPhone App - and I have no problem. I use it with the myMeasures app and I am totally happy. It even transfers the measurements into the app.

That unit will not pair with any iOS device, but I didn't have any trouble getting it to pair with a laptop using Windows 7. It's kind of quirky in how it works, though. You have to install the Leica software on the laptop, pair it with the Disto, open Excel and then send measurements to the laptop. Leica has another unit that is designed to work specifically with iOS devices that is more likely more intuitive.

Apple says this should pair via Bluetooth. I just chatted with an Apple rep.

Same issue here. I too have same issue, when I upgraded to Iphone 4 with IOS 4. I really hate this pairing job now. It has become almost useless. Any success ?

I have had absolutely NO problem pairing to both my iPhones (both the new and the old) as well as my laptop, and the headset pairs instantly when turned on, telling me that it is paired to two devices. Since the cell phones are Apple but the laptop is Windows 7 professional, the pairing is pretty decent - but both items are very recent and very up to date. Pairing might be more difficult with unusual devices, older items, but not for new equipment.

I have the same problem. I have also had it not connect with my iPhone until another device makes a connection first. I have not found an answer yet but will keep an eye out and report back here if I do.

Hi. After you go to settings and bluetooth. Turn on the speaker. Hold the button for pairing about 15 seconds. If it shows not connected press that on the IPad. It may take a few times. Be careful with the on/off switch. They break real easy. I have had to have mine replaced more than I wanted. Now I have the turquoise BRV1. It has a different switch. But I did buy a Bose as well. Braven sound is not bad. If you have any questions let me know. Good luck and Merry Christmas!

Re-pair no, Settings connect yes. Another reason I got rid of my iPhone bluetooth functionality sucks. On my android I have a shortcut to all my bluetooth devices on my homescreen.

I have never been able to set it up. I tried on my laptop, IPad and droid phone. Couldn't connect. I sent it to my brother in law who is a tetchy but he hasn't had any luck either. Look elsewhere.

Mine was acting funny a couple of weeks ago... Have you tried forgetting the device and pairing it again? And, have you checked if the iPad is connecting to another Bluetooth device?

My macbook had the same issue although these headphones work great with my ipad and iphone.If you havent already tried this, I recommend you hold down the power button on the earphones until the light begins cycling red and blue. This is the pairing mode and generally works

I just got these and had the same question, because my iPhone, iPad and Mac were always connecting to it so quickly that I couldn't pair it to the device I wanted. Figured it out, without having to do anything with the previous device. All you have to do is turn the headphones off (unless they are already off). Then hold down the power button and KEEP HOLDING IT even when the red/blue lights flash. Then while holding the power button still, select it on the device you want to use now. It connects to that device and you can let go of the button. Then repeat the process to pair it with the other device.

Hi Andrea, I would love to help you here. Have you been able to pair them to any device or is it just the iPod 5 that you are having trouble with? Is the LED flashing blue/red alternately which indicates the headphones are in pairing mode? Please send us an email at support@lil-gadgets.com and we would be happy to help you further troubleshoot.Jacquieco-founder, LilGadgets
