Let’s not waste any more time, so let’s check out the steps for pairing Sony’s wireless headphones with a Mac.

Connect Sony Bluetooth Headphones to Mac: What to Know

Before connecting any device to another device, some steps must be taken, or at least information must be known.

In order to connect Sony headphones to a Mac, the same steps that are required for any other headphones brand must be taken. This includes the following items:

1. Verify that Bluetooth is an option on your Mac.
2. Make sure there’s at least a three-foot space between the computer and the headphones.
3. If you own Sony headphones, check the battery.
4. To listen to audio on your Mac, activate the speaker.

When you’ve confirmed that everything I’ve said above is settled and in order, you may proceed to plug in your Sony headphones to your Mac. Here are the measures you need to take to do this:

• Set the Pairing Mode on Your Sony Wireless Headphones

If you’ve never used your Sony headphones before, you can force them into pairing mode by pressing and holding the power button for seven seconds. This works for most new Sony headphones, but you’ll need to do it manually if you’ve used them before.

• Examine the LED light

Sony’s wireless headphones, like all others, have LED indicators that provide us with important information. After seven seconds of holding the power button, you should examine the accompanying LED light. If the indicator light on the headphones flashes blue, they are suitable for use.

The light will flash twice, and then you’ll hear the assistant say, “Bluetooth Pairing.”

• Plug in your Mac

You may plug in your headphones whenever you’re ready, but this time you need to make sure everything is in order with your Mac. The Bluetooth icon may be accessed in the device’s Settings and System Preferences.

• Choose your headphones

You can identify your Sony headphones by their name, which will be shown on the Bluetooth icon in your device’s settings. 

• Select the speaker option.

All of your Macs need to have their sound settings adjusted. To do this, pick the name of the headphones you’re using by tapping the speaker icon on the screen’s right side.
