Search for Devices: Open bluetooth setting, Search for Bluetooth devices in which you want to pair. It will display a list of Bluetooth devices in range. Look for your iHome speaker’s name in this list.

What is the Bluetooth code for the Home?

The default Bluetooth code for pairing an iHome iBT33 speaker is 1234.

When you put the iBT33 in pairing mode, “iHome iBT33” should show up in your phone or tablet’s list of available Bluetooth devices. If it says “Not Paired” or “Not Connected” next to the speaker name, just tap on “iHome iBT33” to initiate pairing.

If your device prompts you to enter a passcode or PIN, simply type in “1234” and you should be good to go! The speaker will connect wirelessly to your device so you can start streaming your tunes.

Why is my iHome not connecting to Bluetooth? [Fix]

Here’s a step-by-step guide to get your iHome paired up and jamming again in no time:

  1. First off, make sure your iHome is in pairing mode. Press and hold that “Pairing” button until the Bluetooth light starts flash-flash-flashing. If it’s not flashing, it’s not ready to mingle!
  2. Now, head over to your phone or laptop’s Bluetooth settings and scan for available devices. Look for “iHome iBTXX” (XX being your model number) and give it a tap to connect.
  3. If your device is playing hard to get and asking for a passcode, just type in “1234” – that’s the iHome’s not-so-secret code.
  4. Still no luck? Try giving your iHome a quick power cycle. Unplug it from the wall, wait 10 seconds (or sing a verse of your favorite tune), then plug it back in. Press and hold the power button to switch it on and put it back in pairing mode.
  5. If your iHome is still being a Bluetooth rebel, it might be time for a reset. Check your model’s manual for specific instructions, but it usually involves pressing a combo of buttons or finding a cheeky reset hole to poke with a paperclip.
  6. Bluetooth can be a bit clingy and needs to stay within 30 feet of each other. Walls and interference can also cause hiccups, so try moving them closer together.
