Bose QC35 doesn't appear in Bluetooth
We have many resources on what to do if a device shows up in Control Center but won't connect. But what about when the device - e.g. my Bose QC35 headphones - simply won't show up?
I found the answer in this Reddit thread from 2017. I can't credit the author because it says [deleted]. It has several thanks, and it worked for me on my 2020 Air with M1. https://www.reddit.com/r/bose/comments/6ac0vw/comment/dhdc26e/
- Forget every bluetooth connection on your Mac.
- Erase bluetooth list on your QC35 (slide the power button to the right and hold until the voice prompt [for me it was a beep] tells you that the list has been deleted)
- Switch off your Mac's bluetooth, switch off your QC35s.
- Switch on your Mac's bluetooth FIRST, then switch on your QC35.
- Pair them
You'll have to reconnect (re-pair) everything else that had been in your Bluetooth list.
