This article explains the process of connecting your Windows or Mac laptop to Bluetooth computer speakers. Instructions apply to Windows 10, macOS, and Mac OS X.

To connect Bluetooth speakers to a laptop, you need to make sure that the speakers are discoverable, that is, put them in pairing mode. Normally, you press and hold the power button or the Bluetooth button for about five seconds. When the Bluetooth LED flashes, the speakers are ready to be paired with the laptop according to the steps below.

If you do not see the flashing LED, consult the documentation that came with your speakers or visit the manufacturer's website for specific instructions.

While most modern Windows computers support Bluetooth, some business desktops and some older consumer PCs do not. If you can't find the Bluetooth settings, purchase and install a hardware USB receiver to enable Bluetooth compatibility.
