Can Bose headphones connect to an Xbox?
Bose headphones cannot readily connect to an Xbox due to Microsoft opting for an Xbox-specific frequency for connecting controllers and headsets instead of the standard Bluetooth protocol. As a result, the console only works with headphones that support this frequency.
The situation is the same for the Xbox One, Series X, and Series S. Thankfully you can avoid this problem with a Bluetooth adapter or connect your Bose headphones to your TV.

r/bose on Reddit: Connecting Bose QC Earbuds to Mac?
February 18, 2019 -
I am unable to connect my earbuds to my Mac and I had no issues hooking them up to my phone. It makes you download the app to get them connected to the phone, so is there something that I need to also set up on my Mac laptop? I hold down the pairing button and it says "ready to connect" with the blue light but I am unable to get them to my laptop. I'd be bummed if this doesn't work with my computer but I am hopefully just missing something! Thanks for the help!
