Why won’t my AirPods connect to my Toshiba tv?
There are a multitude of reasons why your AirPods may be having trouble connecting to your Toshiba TV.
AirPods not charged
One of the most common ways for this to happen is if your AirPods are not charged. To check the charge on your AirPods, check the light on your charging case. The light will either show green, amber, or blank, to indicate status.
If the light is green, the AirPods are fully charged. If the light is amber, that means that the AirPods are either in need of charge or are in the case charging.
If the light is blank, that means the AirPods are either completely uncharged, or the charging case is uncharged, which can be fixed by plugging it in to charge.
Other earphones are connected
Another issue may be that someone’s AirPods (or other Bluetooth headphones) have been paired with the Toshiba Smart TV, which would prevent you from connecting them. To fix this, you have to unpair the other AirPods from the television.
A bad connection
Another issue is that your AirPods may be working, and may be connected to the television, yet it is still unable to work. To fix this problem, unpair your AirPods from the Bluetooth items list on your Toshiba TV.
Next, put your AirPods back into the charging case, and then close the case. Wait 15 seconds, and then reopen the lid.
Press and hold the setup button for 10 seconds. After you’ve done this, follow the steps necessary to pair it posted above.
If this does not work, you may try resetting your AirPods. To do this, put your AirPods in the charging case and wait 30 seconds. Open the lid, go to your Bluetooth settings on your iOS device, and tap the More Info button.
Next, tap Forget This Device, and then tap again to confirm. Hold the setup button on the open charging case for 15 seconds until your light begins to flash amber and then white.
Finally, bring your iOS device near your charging case, and then follow the steps on your device’s screen.
Can I connect multiple AirPods to my Toshiba tv?
If you are looking to have a watch party with your friends late at night but need to keep the volume down, you are inevitably going to want to connect multiple AirPods to your Toshiba TV to enable that.
Unfortunately, you won’t be able to connect multiple AirPods to the Toshiba. Typically, your AirPods will not be able to connect to your TV if there is another set of Bluetooth headphones set up with it, AirPods or otherwise.
However, there are other options you can explore, such as a Bluetooth adapter. The major issue with using a Bluetooth adapter is that it is still somewhat limited; you will only be able to connect two AirPods at any one time to your adapter.
So even if you do get this working, you will only have one person with you to watch television.
