Bluetooth conectivity with windows vista

I have just downloaded all the new updates 683.14.1. I still can not get the Bluetooth to work between my n73 & my vista computer. Can anybody help, thank you
Ian

Breeder,
Thank you for all your help however I could not get my N73 to work with my VAIO C2Z/B. Having said that I have rectified my problem by removing the Toshiba stack and replacing it with the microsoft stack. Now everything works just great. I found this information on another site. See below -
Pairing with Sony UX (and other Vaios) - Instructions inside
I just picked up a VKB to use with my Vaio UX380, and was having the same problems as others - "Detection of services failed" during pairing.
The problem is simply the Toshiba bluetooth stack.
The links to other stacks provided by the admins here were all trial versions as far as I could tell. I installed the updated Toshiba stack from the link provided, but it doesn't actually work. It just complains that the trial period is already over and shuts down.
The secret is to ditch the **bleep**py Toshiba stack completely and use the Windows stack. The Windows stack (at least in Vista Business) works great with the VKB and still works with my cell phone for EVDO tethering.
Step by Step Instructions:
Go to Control Panel -> Add/Remove Programs, and uninstall "Windows Bluetooth Stack by Toshiba"
Afterwards, Windows will complain that it can't find a driver for your "UGX" - that's your bluetooth adapter.
(I followed some instructions found elsewhere on the web to edit my c:\windows\inf\bth.inf file, to add the Vaio's built in PnP ID to the file, but I'm pretty sure that wasn't necessary, since windows didn't want to use its built-in driver anyway, and I had to select one of the pre-existing adapter types. If these instructions here don't work for you, see below just in case)
Go to Device Manager and find the "UGX" with the exclamation point, and "Update Device Driver". Tell it you'll find the software, and when it gives up, tell it to show you all hardware available. Select Bluetooth, and then "Alps USB Bluetooth Adapter". Let it install the drivers.
After a restart, your bluetooth adapter should be functioning normally, but with the Windows stack instead of the Toshiba one.
And as by magic it all works at last
Thank again
Ian

  • Bluetooth Sync with Windows Vista - 64 bit

    Recently found out that i have to use bluetooth to hot sync to my desktop PC.  It is a 64 bit Windows Vista.  I have the bluetooth device (USB), what do i need to do to the PALM device (T/X) to make sure the sync is appropriate?

    Hi.. Welcome to the Palm forums.  First your computer has to have bluetooth compatibility,  if it is not built in then you will need to purchase a bluetooth dongle.  They are relatively cheap as I have seen them from $2 on up.  Next you would want to follow the following link as it has full instructions how to set it up as well as many other users that will be able to help answer your questions.

  • Bluetooth Mouse with Windows Vista

    I have a 5 month old iMac and installed Vista on it and I was able to connect my bluetooth mouse and keyboard to it just fine.. But my brother-in-law just got a new iMac and I installed Vista on it for him and when I try to connect his bluetooth mouse with it it wont work it works in Mac OS X but wont let me connect it to Vista. It gives me some error about unable to pass passcode onto it or some junk..
    Anyone have this problem and/or how to fix it?

    It is probably unlikely to be the mouse but it could be. Otherwise my vista install took a good half hour to do the pairing for no real reason, I just kept trying. So from me just persist with it and try reinstalling the bluetooth driver, it seems to be a problem most people have a problem with the wireless mighty mouse at first I don't know why. Sorry I'm not helpful but as for as I now there isn't a solution because it will work.

    Go into Settings>Messages>Send and Receive and make sure that your phone number is checked and iMessage reads as activated. Remove the checkmark from the email address and make sure that only the phone number if checked. It should appear grayed out, but should still have a checkmark. If the phone number does not have a checkmark, then turn off iMessage, wait a few moments and then turn iMessage back on and make sure that it activates.

    Any device should work with Windows Vista 32 bit. If you have windows 64 bit then any device with bluetooth will work via bluetooth, no device will work via cable.

    My computer is Windows Vista 32 bits.
    I have bluetooth mouse "Apple Mouse Magic", I got to work on Windows Vista I installed the drivers, but every time I reboot or re-enter Windows does not recognize me, and I have to link each time the mouse with a program Bluetooth BlueSoleil.
    Does anyone know how I can leave it linked to Windows Vista without using an intermediary the "BlueSoleil"?
    I tried adding it through the bluetooth device but there's no framework for when the box "Allow Bluetooth devices to find this computer" whenever I get the same error:

    Do not keep the following configuration:

  • Bluetooth connection to Windows Vista

    I tried to connect the iphone 3 G S via bluetooth to my windows Vista Laptop, for wireless sync. On the driver install, one bluetooth part>> bluetooth periphal device << can not be installed<<<. No update is avaialable from Windows. Does anyone know how to fix this?

    The iPhone does not support anything higher than A2DP headset protocol (cellular to headset). It does not support BT<->PC protocol or BT<->Car/GPS Device Bluetooth Protocols.
    Some phones do have this protocol from more popular brands like Sony Erricson or Motorola cellulars. You can use TomTom's "What phones can be supported with my GPS device?" section that has a list of phones that can do traffic report data streaming and phone contact lookup with voice control.

  • Help, hotsync palm treo 755p to my laptop with windows vista 64 bit.

    I am computer unsavy and could use some help.  I have a palm treo 755p that previously synced with my old dell laptop.  That computer broke, and I got a new HP with windows vista 64 bit.  Previously, the dell was running windows xp.  I have bought some new software, which I have downloaded to my laptop, and am trying to sync my palm to the new computer so that I can download the program to the computer.  However, after installing the Palm Hotsync Manager and other software, and when I trying to sync, the computer does not seem to recognized my palm, and times out after a while stating "the connection between your handheld computer and the desktop could not be established.  Please check your setup and try again.

    Palm OS devices will only sync to 64bit through Bluetooth. We have a stickie concerning this. It's the third topic down under windows hotsync. Does your computer have Bluetooth?

  • Recognizing an iPod with Windows Vista

    I have a new computer that came with Windows Vista. I have not been able to get iTunes to operate correctly for Windows Vista to recognize the USB connection to my iPod. Anyone have a patch or downloadable software suggestion to resolve this?

    groans
    I finally figured I had nothing to lose--I'd just downloaded a new version of Real Player, which supposedly will work with iPods and Windows Me--and I let my computer format the iPod, hoping that would let it work with Windows again. Apparently not. Now it won't turn on--it's giving me the folder-and-exclamation-point icon. Resetting it didn't help, and I can't restore it because I can't install the software to my computer in the first place.
    I suppose the only thing to do is borrow a friend's computer or something.

  • Ipod touch with windows vista

    Hi,Im looking into geting the ipod touch,but I have read that the ipod touch does not work well with windows vista. I know the new itunes 7.5 just came out. Has that version fixed the problems with the ipod? Also what are the problems the ipod touch is haveing with vista. I have windows vista 32 bit OS. Thank you very much for your help.

    Hey, yeah I have major problems syncing to Vista. The album artwork is assigned to the wrong songs or sometimes a chunk of the picture is not in the right place, some of my songs stop half way through the song then the iPod skips to the next song on the list. My movies periodically decide to crash and the only way to get past these spots is to skip ahead (which is very difficult on the iPod touch especially when the movie is long cause you dont want to miss too much) but yeah just letting you know that there ARE some issues with it not saying that yours will do the same but it might.

  • Error ~69 with Windows Vista?

    I just purchased a new Gateway with Windows Vista to replace my Dell with XP. Ever since I purchased my Gateway, I am unable to sync any iTunes purchases or material imported from CDs to my iPod 30GB. I keep receiving the ~69 message "Unable to sync to iPod. An unknown error occurred. (~69)." Following this error, the iPod only seems to sync the songs that I've recently played on my iPod when it's been disconnected from my computer.
    Is this a problem with my iPod, Vista, or some combination of the two? I do not see any songs that should be causing a problem, and my entire library synced with no problems on the Dell XP machine.

    Unfortunately, I tried every solution on the page (including restoring) and it still doesn't work. I thought the problem was because of a bad video file that iTunes warned me to delete, but that doesn't work at all.
    There has to be an issue with Vista. The iPod worked just fine on my Dell with Windows XP. As soon as I switched computers, it stopped working. What issues does iPod have with Vista?
