Go to new volume icon in your menu bar and select the bluetooth speaker. Now you need to tell the computer to output the audio to your new connected speaker. Step 4: Select the Bluetooth Speaker as your audio out device. Go to system preferences, select the Sound preference panel, and select the box that says ‘Show volume in menu bar.’ Now a new icon will appear in the top right of your Menu bar. 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. You need to select the device and then it will say ‘Connected’ like the screenshot above. When the speaker is in pairing mode it should appear in the ‘Devices’ section of your Bluetooth Preferences Pane. Step 3: Select the speaker in your bluetooth preferences.
