Harman Kardon Invoke speaker - can't pair Bluetooth

Anonymous

I just tried using my Invoke again for the first time in a while, and I can't pair via Bluetooth in order to play music from my phone.  If I say "Hey Cortana, pair Bluetooth," it responds and says it is entering pairing mode, but my phone doesn't detect it.  When I try pressing the bluetooth button on the speaker, nothing happens... the speaker does not enter pairing mode as expected.

I did not have this problem the last time I used it (probably 2-3 months ago).

I tried doing a full factory reset and setup, and it still does the same thing.  The speaker seems to be working fine otherwise... I can issue other Cortana voice commands (i.e. whats the weather, play radio station) and it responds properly.

The speaker has the latest FW:

2.0.4.067aa17.vs-ssh-main

Barracuda_libre-11.1842.0

Can anyone help?  Thanks!

    I have the exact same problem as asdfasdffdas.  My Invoke is not pairing also.  I have tried all of the remedies you have suggested to no avail.  There has to be something more that can be done.  The speaker was working fine until September of 2020.

    Hi there! I am Louie, a Microsoft Community member and a fellow Windows 10 user like you. Hope you're doing well and safe there.

    I'm sorry that you're having trouble with your bluetooth on your pc.

    I would recommend you to run Bluetooth troubleshooter for pairing issues.

    Select Start , then select Settings > Update & Security > Troubleshoot . In Find and fix other problems, select Bluetooth, and then select Run the troubleshooter and follow the instructions

    For other issues with bluetooth you may check the link below:

    Hope this will fix the problem.

    Sincerely,

    Louie
