[QUOTE="hughvane, post: 1922891, member: 56231"] Resurrecting the Bluetooth AWOL issues, but this time with the 2018 Mini (MacOS 10.14.x). A brief background: The '18 has only recently been returned from an extended stay in Mac hospital (an overheating issue posted elsewhere in M-F), having first one replacement logic board (a dud), then a second unit installed, before the Mini pronounced recovered. The lengthy process of apps, utilities and browser restoration is ongoing, but the major issue currently is Bluetooth [B]vs[/B] JBL (a 5.1 sound system). Reiterating • the JBL works just fine with my iPhone, and used to work equally well with the '18 Mini • it refused to work with the 2010 Mini which was being used as temporary cover for the '18 version. That situation continues. Attempted A debug of Bluetooth, followed by a Mini restart. No effect. Other than what has already been suggested as 'fixes' for this issue, is there anything else that might be investigated or tried? [B]EDIT:[/B] Update - I opened the Mini18 System Report>Bluetooth. A lot of what is there is meaningless to me, but one item - Discoverable - caught my attention. It shows as being Off. That makes little or no sense, because Bluetooth [U]is working[/U] with the keyboard and the iPhone. What other Bluetooth devices may be trying to connect to my Mini18 include the JBL sound system, headset (√) and a portable soundbox. A check of the 2010 Mini's Bluetooth report shows Discoverable as being [B]ON[/B]. How might I turn the Mini18's Bluetooth 'discoverable' on? [/QUOTE]
