SoI'm sure this question has been asked by more than me here but i was unable to find any solution. I have two pcs one new lap top where they connected fine. But my media pc in my living room which is older refuses to connect, it has paired but not connected. The computer is using the ASUS USB BT 400 usb dongle.

Don't know what to do and SONY does not seem to want to adress the issue, at least not with a solution. Thats bad considering How Maaaany are experiencing this joke of an issue 2021 for so expensive headphones.


A2DP is a Bluetooth profile. It's basically a part of the Bluetooth receiver's specifications and isn't something that can be downloaded. So if you don't have it, your PC wouldn't be compatible with the headphones.


One LE_WH-1000XM3 and another just WH-1000XM3. When i right click on them and choose the Services tab i get the traditional tick boxes of the diffrent drivers/funtions, so i click them all in on both of the deices and then go to the bluetooth devices saction, where you add and, pair, and connect. They are both there the LE_1000XM3 is at the bottom and it just says i guess what in English would be Paired (direct translation from Swedish: Engaged /Coupled) the other one is at the top almost and says the came thing, but when you right click it you get the "Connect" and "Remove" buttons. Klicking the Connect button you Instantly with out even a split second passing the error message saying that it was not possible to connect, please check if the headphones are still recieveing (which they of course are, ive tried the regular alrady paired way and the lets pair way, neither works) But im like Hey, you didnt even TRY no way you could have even almost begun to connect, you threw in the towel on the Go and try to blame it on the headphones, your Fast but not That fast..." That actually a transcript of how i think in frustration when it happens


Ive got a new laptop and there all is paired, connecting and transmiting. I noticed that one has a driver called A2dp Source, which the other one does not, also on the laptop Both of the WH devices has an LE_ in front of them.both the handsfree and stereo devices of the headphones...


I have the same issue now. Paired but not connecting. Easily connecting on Linux Ubuntu on the same PC and to the smartphone. But on Windows getting this message: "That didn't work. Make sure your bluetooth device is still discoverable, then try again." The drivers are all updated. Anyone found a solution yet?



P.S. This is weird, because I also have WF1000-XM3 and they connecting without a problem.


Sorry for not responding earlier. Im glad to hear you got it resolved as i know what bloody headache i went through myself. Its under All critizism that Sony has not gotten off their fat asses and resolved this with either a fix or pointers, im still super ***** about it. As if its some pair of junk headphones i got free on a bloody airplane...


It says Dell but its an Intel software so never mind the dell name, once yo install it youll see only Intel. My only reservation is that its a 32bit version, could not find a 64bit. Once its installed and the headphones are connected and starts playing youll see a new popup notice down in the right corner by the taskbar. Ive attached a picture of it, its in Swedish but its basically saying that "You are now using aptX with technology from Intel". Lastly youll see whats shown in the second picture from the Sound settings tab saying " aptX Support is now activated." with a ticked in tick box.


Now youll have aptX HD playing from your PC... How fantastic it would had been if Sony Cared to share this info, fi they even know about that it Might be neded, well lets not hold our breaths and just solve it ourselves. Just takes so much time totally unneccearily but there you go. They have make some pretty damn good headphones thats not even argueble but the quality of thier information on things like this is sub par. My dog is better at letting me know when he needs to take a *****.... Imagine all the people who have zero tech savvyness, i feel for them.


This one pops up for me each time i connect the headphones to the laptop. Youll probably also see a new addition oa a background software named "iBT Audio monitor" thats the kicker thats making it happen.This mark would also be visible each time, but you must obviously open the Sound settings by right clicking the sound icon in the taskbar.


I don't know to be honest, it was working fine since then but now I'm stuck with this issue again after about a month. The culprit is most likely bad drivers, so I'm trying to sort it out and if lucky will try to figure out which exact driver causing this.




Cause I'm stuck with this issue again, tried all sorts of drivers but nothing works, even did windows repair update install.



Getting these errors:

"Couldn't connect" - via 'Connect' function on the right pane.

"That didn't work. Make sure your Bluetooth device is still discoverable, then try again." - via Bluetooth settings.


Please try a clean installation of the latest driver provided by Gigabyte (22.160.0.3). If the issue persists, try a clean installation with the latest generic wireless driver -wireless-bluetooth-for-windows-10-and-windows-11.html


Open sound settings and voila - you have headphones and mic, but if the device is turned off and on (sleep or reboot notebook) - Bluetooth doesn't work and need to remove the device and repeat manipulation.


So the main question doesn't change - why Bluetooth doesn't work from the box?

On the same Intel Bluetooth driver (22.160.0.0) on my PC with Intel AX200 all headsets working without any issue - looks like Intel made some bug in Bluetooth driver or in hardware - AX211


Open the application and select "Everything", click on "Scan" to see the system and device information. By default, Intel SSU will take you to the "Summary View". Click on the menu where it says "Summary" to change to "Detailed View". To save your scan, click on "Next", then "Save". Please attach the file to your reply.


Yes, I replied to the previous post, - nothing changed, looks like this is something related to all Intel AX2x1 cards, as AX2x0 working without any issue, and looks like it's something related to drivers.


Well miracles do happen Steven_I lol...I've just rolled back to the version 22.170.0.2 in DV and after the install of the 22.170.0.2 driver pressed F3 which unpaired the JBL LIVE 650BTNC then I paired the BT headphones back again in Win-11 > Settings > Bluetooth & devices > Devices and MAGIC it worked??? It's got me puzzled why it didn't happen before, as I've tried everything, thanks for that as it works 100% and with this new driver its got perfect sound (btw, just listening to some great rock jazz of Fourplay Elixir) and it sounds just perfect, but I don't know if and when I reboot the laptop the BT will still be working, I will let the community know. Thanks Steven good work.


Steven_I, unfortunately the newest Intel version 22.170.0.2 driver (as described above) that worked perfectly and even enabled my JBL headphone volume controls switch (which I didn't have with the old 22.40.0.2 BT driver) worked until I rebooted the laptop (see caption below) then the Bluetooth version driver 22.170.0.2 did NOT work and its the same as all the other new Intel updated drivers that I used before for my Wi-Fi/BT card the Killer AX1650i from its oem Acer BT driver version 22.40.0.2 dated 16/02/2021, unfortunately I had to revert to the old Intel Bgt driver. Any solutions would be appreciated as I've tried everything.

Hello, i have a macbook pro 2019 16". Also installed windows 10 with bootcamp. The problem is that on windows, a bluetooth audio device for example (Sony WH-1000XM3) is stuttering when wifi active. if i disable the wifi, stuttering stopped. The drivers installed are official and latest. I think bluetooth and wifi use same frequency(2.4 Mhz). But i could not find any solution yet. Could you give any advice, thanks for any help guys:)


Unfortunately, my router is not support 5 GHZ, but i would like to buy a new router that support both 2.4 and 5 GHZ. it is not a good solution, cause this never ends, when i connect to a wifi with 2.4 ghz then problem will occured again. I need to downgrade bluetooth adapter driver. is that possible? where do i find that older driver?
