Pairing 2 Computers Via Bluetooth?
May 18, 2011
to start off i would like to apologize in advance if i posted under the wrong subject. anyway, here is my problem. i have an asus g73jh republic of gamers laptop running home premium x64 and an asus eee pc 1015pn running home premium 32 bit. b4 i upgraded my eee pc to home i was running starter and was able to pair the 2 laptops via bluetooth and was able to control the media player from one computer to another. efectivly using one computer as a remote to the others windows media player. after i upgraded to windows home premium on my eee pc i have lost this funtionality. now i still have all the options to control my g73 on the eee pc but they dont work (they try to connect for a little while and then just switch back to saying disconected) and my g73 says that the eee pc is a computer but only gives the option to connect to it as a bluetooth headset. i have uninstalled and reinstalled bluetooth drivers on both machines and have tried drivers from asus website and drivers from windows update all with the same result.

have just had to deal with 2 lappies of mine getting the Blue Screen, now neither one will work, so here I am with a "new" hard drive with Windows 7 32 bit and I'm wanting to throw it through the window in front of me.I am using an IOGear Bluetooth adapter and I keep getting the message that a device wants to connect "click here to allow" so I do, now they want a pairing code. Does anyone here know if there is such a beast that will work so I can get on with solving the REST OF MY WINDOWS 7/STARTING OVER problems, of which there are numerous ones.ould be so very grateful if I could just get off of this lappie keyboard, which is extremely uncomfortable, not user friendly and I won't last much longer with it

Three Computers on a home network. Desktop in Office (Windows 7) . Wife's Laptop (Windows 7). My laptop ( Vista unfortunately). Norton Security Suite and all three. I have a network setup and a Homegroup established.
Everything was setup and working so that I could share files between all three. My wife was able to open a desktop file make changes and save it back to the desktop computer.
All of that changed. Now we get a message when trying to save the file. "You do not have permission to save in this location. Contact the administrator to obtain permission".
I have given the entire "MY Documents" sharing permission to everyone. I have checked everything. I have looked over all kinds of forums and nothing has worked.
I am to the point of doing a complete reinstall of Windows 7 on my Desktop.

Does anyone knows whether the Acer Aspire 5253-BZ661 laptop has a built-in bluetooth device in it? Reading from articles on the internet, I don't see any information regarding this laptop's particular model having a built-in bluetooth device in it but has a bluetooth driver and suite ready for the download at the acer main site.

i have 1 laptop with 7620 and the desktop with RTM, the issue is taht when i do
computerc$
i get the prompt saying taht i need to enter a user and password when i could do it before without entering it.
in XP having both accounts with the same name and password and some register magic solved the problem, but Windows 7 is different many aspects so i need help.
i can bypass this error by sharing all my drives but... i dont want to left my laptop with the legs open, or well turning on and off the sharing option.
the homegroup is working, though only shares what it want and i will not mess with it (too many files in both hardrives to having access to one zone of the partition).

My stepbrothers and I have been playing some games over our LAN lately. Two of us (including myself) are connected from laptops wirelessly, and the other is connected on a wired desktop. The game we had been playing is Call of Duty, patch version 1.5. All we had been doing before was one of us would create a server, and it would show up in the LAN list for the other two of us.
No set up needed, just installed and played. However, this evening we went to play again and no servers show up for the LAN. It doesn't matter who makes the server, no one else can see it. If I try to ping any other computer on the network, I get no response. If I go to the network devices, nothing shows up. However, if I go into my router I can see all devices, wired and wireless.
They just won't show up under the Windows network devices. I am running Windows 7, and the other laptop and desktop are running XP. We have made no changes to any of the systems. LAN servers just stopped showing up.

I have homegroup set up on my windows 7 (I think). I can see all my windows XP computers, but they can't see me. How do I configure my network in windows 7. The network wizard was so simple in windows XP, but I haven't been able to get it right in Vista or Windows 7.

I have two computers, a desktop and a laptop that I use when traveling, and I run Outlook on both. What I have been doing is to transfer the .pst file to a thumb drive then copy it to the other computer. The same location is used so when I boot the computer it looks for the .pst file in the same place.
My question is simple. Is this the best way to do this? Or, should I be looking for one of the cloud based emails?
How do others do this? I can't be the only one with multiple computers who wants to run Outlook on each one.

I have several computers in the house and thought.... its about time I backed these up (I know you should do this regularly) but being a bit unfamiliar with what the end result is on the backup, I'm asking if you can backup several computer to one big external drive and not copy stuff over from one backup to another - i.e. would you end up with folders that you could distinguish from each computer ?

I need to install Windows 7 on several computers. All the settings I do on one computer (desktop theme, registry changes, IE settings, taskbar size, desktop icons and shortcuts, quick launch toolbar etc.) I need to do all over again, by hand , on all the other computers. All are clean Windows 7 installs with nothing else but drivers for each hardware.

We are deploying 10 Toughbook H1's for doing electronic patient care reporting and interfacing with our dispatch center. They are running Windows 7 Professional and will have mobile broadband connections. We'd like to have them setup essentially the same, with all the same settings and restrictions. What is the best and fastest way to do this? I've used the local group policy editor but haven't been able to figure out how to copy those settings from one computer to another. Each computer will have a standard user account. We'd like to prevent the installation of programs (except by admins) and changing of most settings. We're also going to attempt to restrict most internet access except for approved sites.

Both my desktop and my laptop are insomniacs. I have wake on lan configured on the desktop, but I only want the machine to wake up when I send the magic packet. I have set it that way in the network adapter settings, and still it will turn on at random times. I have checked the BIOS to make sure that nothing is causing it to turn on there. I have checked the power settings to make sure that the wake timer turned off. I have gone into Windows Media Center to make sure that it will not wake up my computer to update constantly.
I then decided top go into command prompt on both computers to see what is causing them to wake up. I typed in "powercfg -lastwake" on both computers and it said that the last wake on my desktop was caused by the USB root hub. I went into the device manager and checked all of the USB root hubs to make sure that the device was allowed to turn off to save power. I did not see any of them with the setting that allows the device to wake the computer on.
On my laptop it said that the last wake was caused by the power button. the only problem with this is that the event viewer says that it woke up at 4 in the morning while I was fast asleep. The event viewer confirmed what powercfg had said. The laptop is closed and nothing could cause the power button to become depressed while it is closed. What is causing my laptop to turn on?
As for the desktop, I am waiting to see if changing the USB root hub settings will have any effect.
Does anyone have any other possibilities was to what might be causing my computers to wake up?

I just need to rename the laptop!Woo, that's all fine and dandy, except when I renamed my laptop from Ken-PC (the name shared by both laptop and desktop) to KenLaptop and rebooted, there was a whole slew of problems caused by the namechange. Very long story somewhat shortened, it looked like I was booting up win 95.Multiple error screens, very retro GUI, all fixed by renaming my laptop Ken-PC again.I'm just trying to be able to share my files between the two computers!

I tried to read the tutorials from this forum regarding networking. I am too dumb to understand. They are all Greek to me.
Is there a " How-to for Dummies " instructions for connecting my 2 laptop computers ? Windows Vista Home Premium 32-bit SP2 Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit SP1
They are both wireless enabled, but because my Vista computer battery refuses to charge, it is always plugged in. ( $124 for a battery replacement ? No way. )
In fact both my laptops are plugged in all the time. ( don't laugh ).
ISP is Bell.net.

I have a home network using the KEYSOFT workgroup. There are several XP computers on this network and everything has worked great. I just got a new Windows 7 laptop. I'm using a WiFi network to connect to the other computers. I set the Win 7 computer to use the KEYSOFT workgroup, and I can actually see the other computers on the network, but when I try to access them, Win 7 makes me log onto the other computer.
This has two problems:
1. I have never before needed to log onto other computers to access them.
2. The logon window says that I must log onto the other computer in the domain LAPTOP (which is the name of the new Win 7 computer). Since I'm using a workgroup and not a domain, I can't log on successfully. The logon dialog shows no way to change either the domain name or change it to a workgroup name.
How do I access the hard drive of one of the XP computer?
PARTIALLY SOLVED -- If I ignore the erroneous domain and just put in a logon name and password for the other computer, I can get in. But is there a way on this trusted network to access the other computers without logging in?

I'm not sure if this is a Windows 7 problem as a result of the laptop itself or not but as it is the last thing I've checked...
I have 3 computers: 1 wired desktop(64-bit), 1 wireless desktop(32-bit), and 1 wired laptop(Lenovo T400 w/ 64-bit) each running Windows 7 Professional. The two desktops are able to view one another fine in the Homegroup and exchange files.
The T400 laptop is having some issues. It can see the wireless desktop and transfer files from that machine to itself, but it is not able to even see the wired desktop in the homegroup. Both desktops are able see the laptop but neither is able to get files from it.
Each of the desktops can see all 3 computers in the standard network location, the laptop is only able to see the wireless desktop.
I've run troubleshooter on all three computers, and I've ensured they are all on the 'home network'. I've also made sure the network discovery/file sharing/etc is on in the 'advanced settings' and they are all apart of the same workgroup.
The problems seem focused on the laptop, and both desktops worked right from the get go but the laptop hasn't. Further, I used to have Windows 7 RC (Build 7100) on both the wired desktop and the wired laptop and homegroup feature worked flawlessly at that time...just not with the release.

I have a Laptop that I just installed Windows 7 on, and an XP machine. All is working well, including the networking, but I have what might be a silly question.
From the XP machine, why does the 7 machine not show up when I "View Workgroup Computers". I can get to it when I look in "My Network Places", but when I View the Network Computers, only the XP machine shows up when I'm on the XP machine.
The XP machine shows up on the 7 machine when I "View Network Computers and Devices" FWIW.

Suddenly, Windows 7 will only see one of the 4 other machines on my network. It was working fine a few days ago. I have tried uninstalling Comodo and everything else I can think of - same result. All other machines show all 4 other machines on the network.
My Windows 7 machine only shows one other machine, which is a Vista notebook. The other 3 machines that don't show up are another Vista notebook and 2 XP desktops. All machines can see the Windows 7 box and even print through it. What is going on? Why would one machine show up but not others??

I've spent 2-3 days now trying to solve the networking mysteries of Win 7.
In a nutshell. This computer (Windows 7-64) cannot see the other computers and shares on our small studio network except for the windows 7 machines (also Windows 7-64). (the other computers/shares are all XP)
We have 2 identical machines side by side, one can see all the computers, this one cannot. Both are fresh installs.
There are approx 8 other machines/shares on the network.
Both computers have vista installed on a seperate drive that see the network fine if booted into.
Both have homegroup turned off, and have workgroup enabled with the same workgroup name "WORKGROUP". Both have discovery and file sharing enabled. Both use the same network controller, and have the same updated Windows 7 driver.
-I have tried turning on/off iv6 (which I see some people think/don't think is an issue).
-I have disabled FIREWALL
-I have disabled anti-virus
-I have rebooted after each change
-I have tried different locations/cables on the hub
-I have tried the cable/hub location on the Windows 7 computer that is seeing the network computers.
ps. I forgot to mention that if I type in the IP address in addres bar I can access one of the other machines, but it will not show up in the network window.
I am really at a loss, and have read about every post I can find, and tried every suggestion.
