Hello :)

I'd like to use these headphones for both my Iphone and Macbook Pro. It works great so far with my Iphone, but my Macbook Pro is going through some trouble.

My ultimate goal is to be able to use the headphones for my Iphone and the specific application Rosetta Stone.

The process of connecting the headphones with the bluetooth seems to be good, and I can successfully listen to itunes. The problem arises when I want to use the headphones for "Input." The computer will freeze for 2-3 seconds and it will say "Bluetooth has failed" along with a few other words and requires me to disconnect from the headset.

I have tried using Sound Preferences and setting the Input to SB2 and the Output to SB2 (Headphones) and SB2 (Headset). This leads to a freeze along with the bluetooth has failed warning and then it resets the options.
By doing this a couple of times, it will give me many beachballs and eventually a beachball that last for a very long time :( I have to Force Shut Down my computer and restart it for it to be usable again.

Any ideas or previous experiences that could help me? I'd appreciate it!
