Windows 10: Reconnect to an already paired BT device (e.g. headphones)

I have a Windows 10 laptop with Bluetooth and I have Sony BT headphones already paired to that laptop. I use the headphones with different BT source devices. They remember the last device they were connected to. Switching them to another BT source requires active action from the user. In case of Windows 10, I have to open Action Pane, click on the Connect shortcut (which opens a Connect pane), find my headphones in the list and ask Windows to connect to them.

Now, my question is: it there any way to do the same thing without having to go through Action pane? I.e. is there any way to open the Connect pane directly (a keyboard shortcut preferably)? Or maybe there's an old-style (Windows 7-style) window that would allow me to reconnect to a paired device?

n900 Bluetooth headphone does not connect!

My Nokia bt 905i headphones won't pair to a second device. They are fully charged and I have pressed and held the multifunction key until the green light flashes, but the device I am pairing it to, N800, N9, iPad, cannot see the device. If I delete the
pairing, (multifunction key and volume up), I can then pair it to a single device and a single device only. The manual says that the headphones can be paired with up to 8 devices! Please help as they are great headphones and I want to use them with more than
one piece of equipment.

 

Bluetooth Unable to Connect After Shutdown

I'm having this strange connection issue with my Bluetooth headphones, where if I don't turn them off before I turn off my PC, they won't reconnect to my computer. However, if I go to My Bluetooth Devices and remove the device, I am able to pair them again
after I restart my PC.

This is quite inconvenient, as I occasionally forget to turn my headphones before my PC, and am therefore unable to use them without restarting my computer and pairing them once more.

Steps to recreate:

• Pair a Bluetooth device.
• Turn off your system without first disconnecting the device.
• The device will be unable to reconnect without first removing the device and re-pairing.

Temporary fix:

• Remove the device under My Bluetooth Devices.
• Restart your PC.
• Pair the device again.

Edit: I figured I should mention, I use a pair of Bluedio Turbine headphones.
