Does the bluetooth work in such a way that I can just open my macbook, with bluetooth on, and it'll automatically pair with the speakers?

Dear Customer,Thank you for you question about our M2 Bluetooth Speaker system. The M2 will work as you described once you have initially paired your Macbook with the M2 Speakers. When the Macbook is opened or turned on, the M2 speakers will automatically connect.Please contact us at support@kinivo.com if you have any additional questions.Thank you, Kinivo Product SupportEmail: support@kinivo.comToll Free: 1-855-4Kinivo (1-855-454-6486)Live Chat: http://support.kinivo.com(Mon-Fri: 9am-5pm Pacific)

Yes once you sync it initially. If you sync another device you will have to resync your mac

Yup. Just paired it with both my iMac and my wife's 2012 Powerbook. The latter requires both Bluetooth pairing and then selecting the Grain audio device in your sound preferences.

If you've paired other BT devices with your MacBook then you should have no problems. It's a great speaker - great sound, well built and easy to pair. I see no reason why it should not be compatible.

If you haven't already, fully charge the speaker, make sure Bluetooth is turned on (on the Mac Book), then turn the speaker off and then on. See if the MacBook shows if it is trying to connect/pair. If not, there may be a product defect.

I don't think I've tried pairing it with my MacBook Pro, but try the Bluetooth setup assistant. I've had that work for other devices that weren't found automatically.

Yes and no. Since I have a Mac I haven't tried in Windows 8 but my college here did and he says it work perfectly. No, is not Bluetooth it has its own flash-drive-like receiver independent from BT. PS. You should by this thing. It's just amazing!

Dear Mark, Thank you for your question regarding our M2 Bluetooth speakers. Once you pair the speakers to any device then you do not have to worry about pairing the M2 to that device again. It will automatically connect if you have brought that device back in range of the M2. Please contact us at support@kinivo.com if you have any additional questions.

The best thing I can think of is to 'delete' the speaker as a device from whatever you were synching it to, then have it 'discover' the speaker again. I seem to remember having to try that when I had been synching it to my iPhone, then switched over to almost exclusively using it with my Macbook.

If your Macbook has Bluetooth enabled, it should perfrom as any other bluetooth device.

It's not Bluetooth, so no pairing. It's a wifi speaker so it requires a connection to a LAN or a mini jack connection.

Keep at it everyone! I tried pushing the button for 15 seconds, nothing. restarting, nothing. then after several minutes, went back to check to see if there was anything under the bluetooth section on my macbook pro running X 10.10.2 and there was! I paired it and it works great!

I don't use Mac; but my HP Pavilion required a usb Bluetooth dongle. As long as I left it in and the speakers 'on,' the pairing was automatic. now I have a VAIO with bluetooth built in. As long as I don't turn the speaker itself off, it pairs on its own. I would suspect it would be the same for you.

Bluetooth generally doesn't recognize your OS, so I doubt that is the problem. It took me a few tries to get my devices connected. Here is how I connected my phone, ipad and my laptop: 1) Turn the headphones completely off. 2) Turn Bluetooth ON for the phone or Macbook, and turn on the setting to allow devices to discover it. 3) Hold down the big button on the headphones until it flashes red. Now it will either connect or it won't. If it doesn't connect, turn the headphones off, cycle the Bluetooth adapter on the device, and try it again. Only the laptop connected the first try, the other devices took several tries. Good luck! Bluetooth generally doesn't recognize your OS, so I doubt that is the problem.

I haven't tried it but I should think it would be ok if using a dongle. I have a macbook that works fine with it's built in bluetooth. Just pair it using the software that came with your dongle and the speaker should be good to go. Once paired you can set your skype input and output to usb.
