[Electronics-talk] blue tooth paring

[Nicole Torcolini]

On a similar note, has anyone ever successfully paired Bluetooth headphones
with a Windows 7 machine? Did you have any problems, and, if so, how did you
fix them?

And what kind of computer are we talking about? A Mac or a PC? If a PC, what
version of Windows are you running?

On my Windows 7 box, I just typed bluetooth in the search field and arrowed
down until I heard add a bluetooth device. I didn't go further, but at some
point you'll be given a code you'll need to type on your keyboard to pair
the keyboard with your PC. This assumes your computer supports bluetooth.

I know you didn't ask, but I'm not a big fan of putting a bluetooth keyboard
on a computer. When the battery dies in your bluetooth keyboard, you won't
know if it's the keyboard or the computer. You also want the keyboard to be
recognized before your operating system boots, so you can use it with your
BIOS. When I had a bluetooth keyboard hooked up to a computer of mine, I
found that I was still grabbing a wired keyboard enough that it just didn't
seem worth it. I'm a big fan of a bluetooth keyboard for a laptop, netbook,
tablet or smart phone, but not something as immobile as a computer.
