FAQs & How-Tos
After I updated my computer to Windows 8/10, I am no longer able to establish a Bluetooth connection with my speaker to play music.
How can I correct the problem?
This is because most Windows do not support A2DP stereo audio streaming via Bluetooth, the standard for music-listening through Bluetooth.
The system will support keyboards, mice, printers etc. via Bluetooth, but not audio.
It is necessary to download the proper drivers, either from the computer manufacturer, the software manufacturer or the manufacturer of the Bluetooth chip in the computer.
Help to do this must be sought with the companies that supply one or more of these computer features.

If I pair my Bluetooth speaker to my phone, and record a video with the phone, will the speaker's microphone serve as audio source?
No, all recordings made on the telephone will be using the telephone's built-in microphone.
Replay of the recording will be heard over the speaker afterwards, though, as long as it is paired to the telephone.
