Hey Gary, When I press bluetooth icon all I get is Bluetooth on/off and Bluetooth preferences. I do not get a list of items. Same with outer items except wi/fi, there I get a list of all available wi/fi connections. I went to system preferences and couldn't find any way to "add" list. Thanks
Ken: First, are you using Big Sur?
Yes I am.
Ken: OK. Where exactly are you clicking? On the Menu Bar icon? In Control Center? If in Control center, are you click on the blue circle, or the text "Bluetooth On" next to it? Also, are you sure you have Bluetooth devices? For instance, if it wasn't for my AirPods, I would have nothing listed on my MacBook Pro.
I am clicking on icon on top right bar. I do have bluetooth devices (jabra ear, speakers etc). So either I wasn't close enough or device wasn't powered on I guess. Thanks
Ken: But have you ever connected those to that Mac?
Yes. I play all of my music from Mac to Speaker and Use Jabras to listen from ma also.
Ken: No idea why you aren't seeing any of those devices there. How do you even select the speaker or earphones to listen then? Or are you saying they show up in System Preferences but not the menu bar? If that is the case, I am out of suggestions. Make an appointment at the Genius Bar so they can check it out.
Believe it or not.......restart. Thanks for your help
