Windows 10: My JBL Flip 5 isn't showing up when I try to add it as a Bluetooth device to my computer

I was trying to connect my JBL Flip 5 to my computer, but it wasn't working. So I tried removing the device and adding it again. However, when I tried to add it again, "JBL Flip 5" wasn't popping up, even though I pressed the Bluetooth button so it would connect and held it close to my computer. Does anyone know what I can do?

Can't connect JBL Flip 4 to Bluetooth

I borrowed a JBL Flip 4 to try out on my Dell Workstation. I have Bose QC-35 headphones connected through Bluetooth to the Dell. I was able to pair the JBL Flip 4 to my Dell - but it wouldn't connect. I got the error message "Error Establishing Connection." Since the Bose headphones work, I don't know why the JBL speakers won't connect. They connect fine on my friend's computer W10. Windows 10 latest version. Any advice, please?

 

Cannot (re) add my JBL Flip 5 to my Windows 10 laptop

So, last week my JBL Flip 5 worked fine with my laptop. Then I did something that is making the two unable to pair again. Here is the sequence of events.

1. Was using JBL Flip 5 just fine with my laptop for Zoom meetings. However, had purchased Flip 5 for shower upstairs and was now keeping Flip 5 downstairs for meetings.
   
2. Came across my old JBL Flip 3 and thought, well I'll use that with laptop and move Flip 5 back upstairs.
   
3. Tried to add Flip 3 to laptop. It would not pair. My laptop could see the Flip 3 and I would select it to add. I got the message
   "Connecting ..." but the connection never would complete. Eventually, I get the message,
   "Try connecting your device again." I thought maybe problem was that only one of these devices could pair to the laptop, so I removed the Flip 5 from the laptop. (Bad decision!!)
   
4. Flip 3 still would not pair. I could see it as an available device and could click to select it but the process never completes and Now I thought was maybe because of old software/drivers etc for Flip 3.
   
5. Now I am trying to re-add the Flip 5 to the laptop and the Bluetooth connection process is displaying the exact same symptoms as when I tried to connect the Flip 3. I get the message
   "Connecting ..." but the connection never completes. Eventually, I get the message,
   "Try connecting your device again."

"Solutions" I have already tried:

• When I check my Windows updates, the system says I have all the current updates.
• I have tried rebooting. (Both the laptop and the speaker.)
• Looked at Bluetooth hardware options and all devices have a status of "This device is working properly."

I don't know what else to check but the speakers on my laptop are really **** and I would love to reconnect my JBL Flip 5, which was working perfectly last week. I would appreciate any help you can give me.
