Activate the Skullcandy Headphones pairing mode:

Like other headphones on the market, Skullcandy headphones include a few buttons on the side for easy navigation, one of which is the Power On/Off switch.

The Power button on most Skullcandy headphones is also the button that initiates Bluetooth connectivity. Specific models feature a separate Bluetooth button. Press and hold the Power/Bluetooth button for 4 to 5 seconds to enable Bluetooth connection. The LED light will begin to flash after the pairing mode has been activated.

It's quite possible that the button on the side of your Skullcandy headphones can be used to access other settings, so read the owner's manual for more information.

Finding the Skullcandy Headphones on the device's Bluetooth menu:

Connect Skullcandy Headphones to Android:

To connect your Skullcandy headphones with your Android device, go to settings, turn on Bluetooth, pick "Pair New Device," and select your Skullcandy device. The pairing procedure has finished, and your Skullcandy headphones are connected!

Connect Skullcandy Headphones to iOS:

The process of pairing your Skullcandy with an iOS smartphone is identical to the operation of pairing it with an Android device. Go to settings, turn on Bluetooth, look for your Skullcandy under "Other Devices," and pick it.

Connect Skullcandy Headphones to Windows:

To link your Skullcandy headphones on your laptop, click the Bluetooth button in the toolbar, pick "Show Bluetooth Devices," then "Bluetooth & Other Devices," then choose on your Skullcandy headphones. If you can't locate the Bluetooth button in your toolbar, look for it below the upward arrow in your taskbar at the very bottom of the screen. Another option is to use your Windows search box to look for Bluetooth settings on your laptop. Choose "Bluetooth & Other Devices" and then look for your Skullcandy headphones.

Connect Skullcandy Headphones to MacOS:

To connect your Skullcandy headphones to a Mac, go to the Apple menu, pick System Preferences, select Bluetooth, find your Skullcandy headphones, and click "Connect."

Confirming the pairing process:

When your Skullcandy headphones have been successfully connected, they will notify you in one of two ways. They'll start by emitting a beep. Second, the LED light will no longer blink. The LED light on your headphones will start blinking when you turn on the Bluetooth connection and cease flashing after correctly completing the pairing procedure.

You should try again if you didn't hear the beep sound or see the LED light cease flashing after completing the pairing process. If it doesn't work, reset your headphones. The procedure for resetting a pair of Skullcandy headphones varies depending on the model. It is strongly suggested that you read the user manual. For most Skullcandy headphones, hold down the plus and minus buttons until you hear a double beep.

Please read our tips if you are having problems pairing your Skullcandy headphones:

1. Check to see whether Bluetooth is switched on. At the top of your phone's screen, you should notice a little Bluetooth icon. If you don't see it, go into the settings and turn Bluetooth on.

2. Before activating discoverable mode, go to your phone's settings and enable Bluetooth.

3. Put the two devices near each other - any devices you're trying to link should be within five feet of one another.

4. Try to charge your device. Smart devices enable smart power management and switch off Bluetooth when the battery is too low.

5. Try to delete and re-discover the Skullcandy headphones on your phone. If your phone detects the headphones but cannot receive data from them, it may be necessary to delete the device from the Bluetooth settings by tapping it and selecting "Forget this device". Then, re-pair it.

6. Some Wi-Fi routers might block or interfere with the pairing device. Try to get away from the router and see if it works.

7. USB 3.0 interference is also a possibility. Most newer laptops frequently feature a faster USB 3.0 connector, which can interfere with the pairing process. Try to pair your headphones away from the computer.
