You can either reset your Mac’s Bluetooth module, update your system settings or remove any interference to ensure you can connect easily to any device with Bluetooth like a mouse, earphones and more.
Here are some tips to resolve Bluetooth connectivity issues in Mac:
Remove interference:
If you are facing intermittent Bluetooth issues, it can be good to check if there’s any interference. Here’s what you can do:
― Bring your Mac and Bluetooth devices closer and remove any other devices like your phone, power cables and so on that are nearby.
― Move USB/Thunderbolt hubs away from Mac and Bluetooth devices (Do not place them on the top of your Mac).
― Move some WiFi devices to 5G as both WiFi and Bluetooth both use 2.4GHz.
― Turn off USB devices that are not being used.
― Don’t keep materials made of concrete or metal between your devices and your Mac.
Reset your Mac’s Bluetooth module:
― Hold Shift + Option and select the Bluetooth icon in the menu bar
― Choose Debug and choose the “Remove all devices” option.
― Click Debug once more and select “Reset the Bluetooth module”
― Restart your Mac and re-pair all your Bluetooth devices.
Software update:
Sometimes Bluetooth connectivity issues can be caused by outdated system software. You must update your software to the latest version in this case.
Unpair device:
― Unpair your Bluetooth device and repair it again. Go to the Bluetooth option in the menu bar.
― Choose Bluetooth preferences/settings.
― Select a device and disconnect it using the ‘Remove’/’X’ icon.
― Reboot your Mac and repair the device.
Use a dongle:
If nothing else works, you can connect Bluetooth devices like a mouse or keyboard using a dongle. This cannot be used for all devices.
