How to reconnect to an already paired Bluetooth A2DP?

I use a headset stereo bluetooth with my laptop running Windows7/Fedora 12 and also my cell phone and my ipod. I want to connect my headset to one of above the device at a time.

I have associated my helmet with all above devices (Windows 7, Fedora 12, my laptop and my ipod). Suppose I have connected my headphones to the ipod and now I want to use it with my cell phone. All I have to do is disconnect the headphones from the ipod and connect it to my cell phone. ("Connect" and "disconnect" facilities are there in my ipod and mobile).

Suppose now I want to use the headset with Windows 7. (he has already paired and appear under Bluetooth devices). Surprisingly in windows 7 it is impossible to connect to already paired headphones. (when you do a right click on the icon under devices bluetooth headset is no 'connect' option.). Now one may wonder why you don't restart the headset? But it'll never work since headset tries to connect to the last device that it connected. (in this case, my cell phone). Only way I can connect my headset to Windows 7 now is to put the headset mode, removing the helmet of windows, matching and re pair. It will take a time lotof and this will also install drivers for four profiles bluetooth headset works. (A2DP, AVRCP, handsfree, headset). (This will also create a system restore point to make things slower).

Similar to my cell phone and the ipod under linux Fedora it's just a matter of the right click bluetooth icon and selecting "connect". I haven't used windows for a long time and maybe I'm missing something very obvious, or how Windows 7 bluetooth works is very frustrating.

I use Windows 7 Professional in a Dell Inspiron laptop. The bluetooth stack that is used is one that comes with Wndows 7.

Hi Jeff,

Reconnection using playback devices works to reconnect an A2DP Bluetooth Headset already paired to your PC, by helmets opus is generally "Mute" in the respect that you cannot ask them to connect to a specific device, they just try to reconnect to the last device to which they connected. With the help of "Playback devices" circumvents this by getting your computer command ping on the device and it ask for a connection.

Looks like you have a totally different problem to the OP, namely that you can't get your android phone to connect to your PC after you have paired. It is probably useful to start a new thread on this issue because it is completely separate to reconnect devices 'silly '.

My apologies if I have misunderstood.

  • How to reconnect to a project of RoboSource Control?

    Hi, our RoboSource Control Server was offline for a few hours, so I worked in offline mode in several projects. In one of those, I have more clicked on 'do not try to reconnect in the future' (or what was this option), because now there is no connection. Can someone tell me please how to reconnect the project to the files that already exist in RoboSource? I don't want to add the new...

    (Not that I think it makes a difference, but I use always RH8 and RoboSource 3.1.)

    Thank you!

    Figured it out eventually: I opened the XPJ project file in Notepad and replaced the section with a copy of this article that I had copied from a saved version of the XPJ file.

    Apparently, the section is the part that says HR to connect with RoboSource Control.

    Hope this helps someone else...
