Title: Win 10 bluetooth audio in
Post by: nikap on April 06, 2016, 11:49:13 PM
HI all, straight to the point.
I want to be able to connect to my Win 10 laptops and stream audio to it. I could easily do it in win 7 but not 10.
The bluetooth itself works on both PCs but I can't get the audio options up like i could in 7.
In win 7 you would this http://www.guidingtech.com/12120/stream-songs-phone-to-computer-bluetooth/
Half the settings are not there in win 10.

Dose any one know how to do this in win 10?
Is there a program that does the same thing?

Thanks
N

Turn on your device and make it discoverable. Select the Start Start icon button, then select Settings  > Devices > Bluetooth. Turn on Bluetooth > select the device > Pair. Follow any more instructions if they appear. once this part is ok...

a couple of steps are

Run Windows Update....

set up System Protection (formerly System Restore) as its turned off by default in Windows 10.

check the Action Centre out for any notifications about application or driver updates here.

visit the manufacturer of the machine online and check the support downloads section

be sure your Bluetooth adapter have "A2DP" audio streaming feature. and be sure you setup the drivers fully
