I can't get WFS to successfully use the fax modem on my mobile phone over Bluetooth. The modem and Bluetooth connection are working fine outside WFS and I can successfully connect to a VPN over the internet using the mobile phone's modem via Bluetooth. I just can't think what could possibly be the problem. Has anyone else tried to set up their mobile phone as a fax modem over Bluetooth?
By the way, my carrier is T-mobile. I have already called them and they have confirmed that fax and data is enabled on my account. I'm using a Nokia 6233 but I don't think that should be relevant because I can already us the modem over Bluetooth to connect to the internet.
Is any one having any problems with Bluetooth(HP9000 notebook) connecting to the Motorola RAZR v3i cell phone? Is there a new driver for Vista SP2. Do I need a new driver? Until recently(SP2 or update for Motorola phone tools) it all worked fine. I have gotten new software, uninstalled and reinstalled several times and still when the notebook boots the cell phone go's crazy(The bluetooth on the cell phone should not activate until I start the controlling software which is Motorola phone tools).
Even with the problems the connection still allow me to transfer data and manage the phone directory using the notebook/cell phone bluetooth connection. On the cell phone the bluetooth earpiece works fine. Is any one else experiencing such a problem??
if there is a reliable 64 bit vista driver for bluetooth 2.0 EDR? I seem to find information on > problems with bluetooth and vista 64 bit, but cannot find a clear answer if there is actually a Vista 64 bit driver.
I have read some of the add ons that sp2 will have. One of which is bluetooth capabilities. If my pc does not have bluetooth will it have bluetooth when sp2 is released. Will I still need to buy a 3rd party device that will allow me to use bluetooth. I am having a hard time figuring this one out.
laptop has bluetooth on it. i guess so as its in me control panel. i clicked on it comes up as nothing. do i have to get bluetooth dongle for this to work?
I have an Acer Laptop with Windows Vista Home Premium installed. how bluetooth works? I am trying to understand how to connect it with other devices like my mobile (Nokia 6131). Please notice that i am just now trying to understand what bluetooth means.
I m getting the bluetooth icon in the notification area(system tray) back. I right-clicked on it and said 'remove' thinking it would hide it but now I can't get it back even when i customize the show/hide icons menu. I'm using a bluetooth usb dongle.
The update to Bluetooth in SP2 fixes it: now it does not work. Networking has been improved as well: I have been staring at the spinning circle for more than 5 minutes while trying to change sharing permissions on a folder. Actually I am not changing sharing, because according to Vista the file is already shared with everyone. The problem is that no one else on the network can see the file.
Microsoft has also addressed shutdown: now my laptop hangs and will not shut down unless I manually kill the power. I have migrated one of my main machines to Windows 7 already: Win7 appears to be the real deal. How, after all these years, can Microsoft still turn the offal that is Vista into an ever worse compilation of woe and misery? I sure hope the uninstall works: if I have to reformat and reinstall I am moving to the Win 7 RC.
I have a Dell XPS M1330 laptop with Dell TrueMobile 355 Bluetooth. Recently my computer has had problems with detecting any Bluetooth device I've tried to connect. I was wondering if anyone knew what I should do. The only thing I've tried is uninstalling and reinstalling all the drivers
Gateway P6860 FX laptop with Vista Home Premium 64 installed. Trying to find a way to disable the Bluetooth at start up. There is no option within the Bluetooth settings and it doesn't show up under MSCONFIG. how to keep it from loading at startup? I don't use it and don't plan on using it, however I do not want to delete it from the system.
I currently use a Sony Vaio VGN-SZ56GN/B laptop. It comes with an integrated Bluetooth v2.0+EDR connection. It worked for the 1st year just fine but recently i have absolutely no connection with my bluetooth headphones. The only change that i have initiated on my laptop since then was installing some software for my Sony Ericsson mobile phone.. i think after that i lost connectivity with my bluetooth headphones. I have ensured that i am using an up to date driver (RFCOMM) and the device is enabled.
I am attempting to share my internet connection with a Palm TX which communicates with my PC via Bluetooth. When I try to enable ICS there is no sharing tab present on my ethernet connection. The help says that this happens when you only have one network interface. However, I have two interfaces, the ethernet adapter and the Bluetooth adapter. How do I get ICS enabled?
I just bought a Bluetooth Notebook Mouse 5000 to use with my Asus N70S Laptop which is on Vista 64-bit SP2, with integrated bluetooth. For some reason none of my bluetooth devices (my cell phone, and the mouse) will be discovered. I've set the bluetooth settings to "Discoverable" etc., and the correct services are enabled. Nothing comes up on the "Add a wireless device" page. I don't know what I have to do to get my devices to be discovered. I just saw that on my Device Manager, Bluetooth Remote Control, Bluetooth Hands-free Audio, Bluetooth Hands-free Audio., and Bluetooth Stereo Audio all have the yellow exclamation point on their icons.
I have an HP tx1320, 2GB RAM, dual core Turion64, 250GB HDD, NVIDIA GeForce Go 6150 video card, Broadom Bluetooth Radio onPort_0007.Hub_0001 (Address 00:1e:37:03:7f:53 HCI version 3.8489 LMP version3.16847), with Microsoft Bluetooth Enumerator, running Vista Home Premium, Office 2007. Frequently, when I change to a different window or program changes (not on program launch), my Bluetooth mouse and keyboard stop working until I move the onboard laptop mouse and keyboard for a few keystrokes and mouse movements. After that, it goes back to normal, only to occur again several times during the day. I have a Crackberry with Bluetooth, generally enabled but not necessarily talking with my headset, as I generally do not wear that when in the office.
I have a problem with my Bluetooth Headphones and Vista. I would like to use my Nokia BH-501 (Bluetooth) as a wireless headset for Skype, MSN or any other voice programs available. Generally, I do not have problem paring headset with the computer. I can easily establish connection between computer and device but that is all. Computer under Bluetooth settings recognize device and installation is done. I use Realtek HD Audio with latest driver. Once device is paired with computer, I do not know how to make it work. If I log on MSN, Skype, etc. under sound preference my headset is not on the list so I can’t select it. Also in Realtek HD Audio Manager there is no option to add new device.
I have a HP Compaq 6715b notebook with Vista Business, the OS preinstalled from HP. For some time ago I connected my Sony Ericsson mobile to the PC as a new Bluetooth device. During the installation, I was prompted to install missing drivers for devices named "Bluetooth Peripheral Device". I never found any drivers, and finally I ignored it. The installation was successful as far as I can see, I have never noticed special problems. However, when I look into My Computer > Device Manager, there is a listing under Other Devices, 2 "Bluetooth Peripheral Device" and 2 "Unknown Device", in total 4 devices, all missing drivers. A quick look at Google tells me that there are many others with HP machines in the same situation, HP obviously does not install these drivers for some reason. I contacted HP support in Scandinavia, but they didn't know anything about Bluetooth Peripheral Device. I see further in Device Manager that there is a HP Integrated Bluetooth module (together with Microsoft Bluetooth Enumerator), maybe these are substitute for the "Bluetooth Peripheral Device"? Can anybody tell me more about this? Do these missing drivers exist, are they important, or should they just be ignored?
i have a pc with ADSL wit win Vista x64 with a blutooth device ! and i have a laptop with win vista x64 ! i want to share my adsl with bluetooth ! beetwin pc and laptop !
After installing the Dell BT radio, the device manager indicates hardware operable and up-to-date driver. Vista control panel shows the BT icon but clicking on it gives nothing. An instantaneous indication of the activity cursor appears, but no dialog box and no error message. It is as though there is only placeholder code giving a return.
I want to share my internet connection(DLS-Airtel connection) between my desktop(XP- as the host) and laptop(vista- as client) using bluetooth. Anybody has any idea how to go about it?
I've been using the MS Bluetooth Notebook 5000 mouse with my HP notebook that has a built-in bluetooth transmitter. Though the automatic discovery never worked between the two but after manually adding the mouse after each bootup, the mouse worked fine before the SP2 upgrade. Since then the mouse doesn't show up in the paring window at all.
just before the bsod problems my bluetooth adapter was working up and i got messages to reinstall the drivers fer it.(didnt pay much heed to it)i thnk i had a few viruses on my system i used avira and cleaned them up.(only the c i also let windows update download updates (around 450 mb) (in the meantime i went out fer a smoke) it installed them then prompted me to reboot. i rebooted it when i got back and since then iv had this error message.(BSOD)
a problem has been detected ..blah blah..windows shut down to prevent damage to your system.. .
However, since reinstalling Windows (service pack 2) after a major system crash, I have no bluetooth at all and cannot connnect my mobile to upload pics etc. There is no icon in my tray and no bluetooth in the control panel nor on any searches.
I have a Broadcom (Widcomm) Bluetooth adapter. It works correctly inmy Windows XP. I am now attempting to install this onto my Vista Ultimate SP2 64 bit. I have gotten the correct drivers and they appear to install correctly. Then, after the next reboot, these Broadcom (Widcomm) drivers appear to "disappear" and the Microsoft Vista Bluetooth protocol takes over. What can / should I do ths get the Broadcom (Widcomm) to be used?
I've started to get some problems with bluetooth on my Dell Vostro laptop (running Vista Home Premium). Up until about 3 weeks ago my bluetooth mouse was working fine and I was able to connect to my phone via bluetooth. One day, the mouse stopped working and I wasn't able to reconnect through all the normal procedures. I initially thought it might be the mouse, so I got hold of another bluetooth mouse that is fine with my office XP computer.
I've even uninstalled and reinstalled all the bluetooth software and drivers from the Dell website, but no success. There is no reaction from the laptop when I switch the mouse and click the little button to start discovery. When I try to initiate a connection from my phone, a message pops up on the laptop saying 'a device is trying to connect, please click on this message'. I click on the message, but nothing happens. Has anyone got any ideas as to what the problem might be?
Boy am I going crazy. A brand new laptop and brand new S9 Moto stereo headphones. I pair them to the computer and it acknowledges them. However, I get no sound whatsoever from the headphones. The Bluetooth screen show they are there as both a stereo headphones as well as a wireless headset.
I have gone to Motorola and downloaded the latest driver, which was the same as I had, but I though mine may have had a problem, but no luck with that. 2 weeks of playing for 2 or 3 hours everyday.
I have a new Dell Vostro 1510 laptop running 32-bit Vista. When I open BlueTooth Settings > Options Even though the Show the Bluetooth icon in the notification area is unchecked, it still shows up. Is there another way to hide it in the system tray?
I just recently bought a laptop (HP Pavilion dv7-1267cl), a bluetooth usb dongle and a microsoft bluetooth mouse 5000. I connected the usb dongle and the computer recognize it without any problem. What I need to do to pair the mouse with my computer? I turned on the bluetooth on my cell phone an it found the mouse. So it means that the mouse is working properly.
Upto about 10 days ago my MS Bluetooth Notebook Mouse 5000 paired with the built-in BT of my HP tx1000 series tablet notebook just fine, but at one point the notebook no longer recognized the mouse and zince then it does not show up in the BT devices screen when I try to add the mouse manually. The OS is Vista Home Premium and the notebook uses the Broadcom 6.2 driver. I know the mouse is OK because I can pair it with the BT on my desktop PC. I figure the problem was caused by one of the automatic Vista updates but it's too late to go to do a restore that far. I just about tried everything except HP's email support that is pretty worthless, based on my prior experience with them.
I have managed to break the bluetooth dongle that came with this keyboard/mouse and have tried 3 different brands of dongles with no success. My question is does Microsoft replace the dongles with this Mouse/Keyboard
