2. Click the [Apple icon] on the upper left corner of the screen, click the [System Preferences] menu, click the [Bluetooth icon], and click [Turn Bluetooth On], then exit the Bluetooth settings window.
3. Click the [Go] menu at the top of the screen, click [Utilities], and click [Audio MIDI Setup]
Note: If you don't see the MIDI Studio window, click the [Window] menu at the top of the screen and click [Show MIDI Studio].
4. Click the [Bluetooth icon] at the upper right of the MIDI studio window, find the WIDI Jack that appears under the device name list, and click [Connect]. The WIDI Jack’s Bluetooth icon will appear in the MIDI studio window, indicating the successful connection. Please note, the MIDI studio can now be minimized to run in the background. If no music software is running, macOS will automatically disconnect the Bluetooth MIDI connection after a period to optimize resource usage. That is why it is recommended to keep MIDI studio running and minimize the view of the window.
