Users Guide to JBL LIVE wireless Headphones (How to use LIVE 460nc)

This video is the Users Guide to the JBL LIVE Headphones. In this example we are using the JBL LIVE 460NC, but the information is true for other JBL LIVE Headphone models as well.
We start out by pairing the headphones to our smartphone. In case you are looking for detailed information about how to pair these headphones to an Android phone or iPhone or to a Microsoft Windows laptop, then we do have dedicated videos for these devices with in-depth instructions. (Check the ‘info’ icon in the upper right corner of the video)
The next topic is charging the battery of the headphones. We discuss how to know when it is time to charge the battery. Then we explain what types of USB chargers we can use.
The button controls of the JBL headphones are quite complex. Their behavior depends on the context and for how long we press them.
When using an iPhone or an Android phone we have the option to install the "JBL Headphones” App. You can find it in the Google Play Store or in Apples App Store. The app allows us to us additional features of our headphones. For example we have the ability to select different equalizer settings and even create or own setting. We can also select an auto-off timeout and enable the Pause&Play feature.
In case we prefer to use a wired connection instead of Bluetooth, then this is also possible. Just be aware that the microphone of the headphones is not supported when using the wired connection. A positive aspect is, that the headphones will work without the battery. The headphones only need to be turned on in order to use ANC, Ambient Awareness or Talk-through modes.
The last topic is the Factory Reset. We can perform this by pressing and holding the + and - buttons at the same time for about 5 seconds. The headphones will briefly turn off. After that they will have forgotten about all devices that they were previously paired to.

One of major reasons that I have bought this headphones instead of some others was that I saw in this video that they have possibility to mute the microphone during the phone call. Explained in this video on 5:46. I really need this option. Now when I’ve got the headphones I've realised that pressing that button for 2s will not mute my microphone but it just mute my speakers!!! Other person in the call can still hear me but I can't hear that person...who needs this function!!! Really disappointing......

Great video, but one thing that was missing is the definition of the "JBLLIVE460NC-LE" Bluetooth profile that you warned us not to connect to. What is it for? Does the _LE_ suffix at the end mean low energy or does it mean something else?

Hey man! I have quite a problem with my headphones. You see! I have 660NC Bluetooth headphones, I left them to charge overnight and the first thing I do in the morning is check if they are charged! I took it off the charger and the red light is still on, the headphones won't turn on itself with the power button each time I tried. I tried resetting it a couple times but that hasn't worked either! Could you help me?

@merasmussen82 2 жыл бұрын

My headphones are very sensitive. If my hood brushes past them, or if my move my head sharply, I hear a double-bleep sound, then the video or audio track pauses and I have to manually press play again. It's very frustrating. I understand that the headphones pause the audio automatically when I remove them, but it happens when the headphones move a microscopic distance - they are too sensitive. How can I disable this feature? I would be grateful for your advice.

@Trillobyte Жыл бұрын

It's a major issue. I just got mine yesterday, and this has turned out to be a very annoying issue. Not only do they turn off at any minor movement of the set, they also restart the wrong player on the phone, so I have to go to the phone and switch the player again! How long am I going to put up with that? I don't think for long. And there's no app for the notebook, so no solution there. And every time I turn them on, ANC is active, so there will be some watery noise in the background. What an idiotic release.

You said that the microphone doesn't work when the headphones are connected by cable. Does it work if you connect it by cable and turn them on?

I cannot check at the moment, but i don’t think that will work either. If I remember right, the plug going into the headphones only has three pins (left, right and ground). And there is none for the microphone signal.

I recently purchased these headphones. I think they're great, except for the fact that everytime I move my head a bit there's a click noise coming off my left earcup. It seem that this constant rattling noise is even more sensible to my movement when the ANC is enable. Have any of you had this problem as well. If so, is there any way to stop this noise..?

@paulipaz Жыл бұрын

Yes! I can't stand that. I hate that they stop the play every time I just barely tilt my head. It would be nice to deactivate that option. Still trying to look at how to do that if possible. Have you figured it out?

@rastkogojgic699 2 жыл бұрын

@@mikebromelow8514 It is pointless when the headphones randomly play that notification sound even if they are firmly on your head. Apparently it's a major issue with this model and it's driving me insane. I guess that the sensor is just really bad. And yes, I did turn off the auto pause option via JBL app, but the notification sound is still there. I bought these to watch online courses, and when the notification sound cuts 2 seconds of the video you are watching, you have to rewind and re-watch. Basically, it ruins the whole experience and renders the headphones useless. Which is to bad, because the sound quality and anc are pretty decent
