A: You can connect your ULTIMATE EARS BOOM to a Macintosh or PC that has Bluetooth capabilities.

Macintosh

The latest version of UE BOOM Update Assistant is 1.4 on Mac Informer. It is a perfect match for the General category. The app is developed by Logitech Inc. And its user rating is 4 out of 5. Download the latest Ultimate Ears Apps for MEGABOOM 3, BOOM 3, MEGABOOM, BOOM 2, and ROLL 2 on iOS App Store and Android's Google Play Store to unlock features that make your speaker even better! I loved using the app before the recent update, I got remotely turn on my boom, use and alarm etc. But after the update, the app doesn’t recognise my ue boom, even though they are both up to date. I have tried re installing the app, resetting my ue boom, but nothing. And there isn’t any support on the ue website apart from “update the app”.

From the Apple menu, select System Preferences.
Open the Bluetooth preference pane.
Click “+” to add a new Bluetooth device.
Turn the speaker on.
Hold down the Bluetooth button (above the power button) until you hear a tone.NOTE: The Bluetooth connection button will blink rapidly, meaning the speaker is ready for pairing.
Select ULTIMATE EARS BOOM from the list of available devices and click Continue.

IMPORTANT: The ULTIMATE EARS BOOM can also be a speakerphone, and the Macintosh operating system sets it as a headset device by default.

To set ULTIMATE EARS BOOM as a stereo speaker on your Mac:

From the Apple menu, select System Preferences.
Select Sound.
On the Output tab, you’ll see both “ULTIMATE EARS BOOM” and “ULTIMATE EARS BOOM Stereo” select “ULTIMATE EARS BOOM Stereo”.
Close System Preferences.

Turn the speaker on.
Hold down the Bluetooth button (above the power button) until you hear a tone.NOTE: The Bluetooth connection button will blink rapidly, meaning the speaker is ready for pairing.
Open your Control Panel.
Select Hardware and Sound.
Select Devices and Printers.
Select Bluetooth Devices.
Click Add a device.
Select ULTIMATE EARS BOOM from the list of devices, and then click next.

NOTE: If the Bluetooth Device Control window opens, expand the Headset type menu and select “My hands-free device ULTIMATE EARS BOOM does not have a display” and then click Apply.

Once your speaker is paired and connected, you’ll have to select the ULTIMATE EARS BOOM as the default playback device in the Windows Sound settings. Here’s how:

Open your Control Panel.
Select Hardware and Sound.
Select Manage audio devices (under Sound).
Select “Speakers Bluetooth Hands-free Audio” and click Set Default.
Click OK.

There are a stack of bluetooth speakers available. Here’s how to pair one to your Apple laptop for better sound quality and volume.

Step 1: Turn on bluetooth

Open ‘System Preferences’ (from the Apple Menu at the top left of your laptop screen) then click on ‘Bluetooth.’

Click on ‘Turn Bluetooth On’ to turn it on. Don’t close the Preferences window yet – keep it open for Step 3 below.

Step 2: Put your speaker into ‘Pairing Mode’

The very first time that you use a speaker with a new computer or iPhone you need to ‘pair’ it so that it knows which computer to receive music from. You’ll need to look in the device user manual to find out how to do this. It varies from speaker to speaker but generally you are holding down the power or bluetooth button for a certain time until something starts blinking.

For a Marley speaker you press the bluetooth button and a blue light flashes.

For a JBL extreme speaker you turn it on then press and hold the POWER button again until it starts blinking.

For a Bose Soundlink you need to press and hold the Bluetooth® button on the speaker for three seconds.

Step 3: Select the speaker in your bluetooth preferences.

When the speaker is in pairing mode it should appear in the ‘Devices’ section of your Bluetooth Preferences Pane. You need to select the device and then it will say ‘Connected’ like the screenshot above. If it doesn’t’ appear, which sometimes happens, try some of the following: wait, turn the device off and on again, put the speaker into pairing mode again, restart your computer, turn bluetooth off and on again on your computer, wait longer, move the bluetooth speaker closer to your computer etc until it works.

Step 4: Show volume in Menu bar.
