"Bluetooth: Not Available" after upgrading to Yosemite

Hello everyone,
I just upgraded my MacBook Pro (15" with retina) to Yosemite this morning, and could not use my wireless trackpad correctly anymore (i can't scroll or swipe)
The bluetooth icon in status bar is grey and says "Bluetooth: Not Available"
The weird thing is, i'm still using my wireless keyboard and trackpad (i can move the pointer and left-click).
So the bluetooth module is somehow still working.
I tried deleting the "com.apple.bluetooth.plist" file, and the SMC reset "fix".
But it is still .. it remains "not available".
Any ideas ?

Hey there CesarD,
It sounds like your wireless keyboard and trackpad do seem to be working but for some reason the bluetooth icon is grey and you get a message saying that bluetooth is unavailable, even after deleting the bluetooth plist file, and resetting the SMC. I would next do these steps from the following article found here:
OS X: Bluetooth devices become unresponsive
Shut down your Mac, disconnect all USB devices for two minutes, start up, and re-connect your USB devices once again.
If the issue persists, I would next reset your PRAM for good measure:
OS X Mavericks: Reset your computer’s PRAM
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Take care,
Sterling

  • Bluetooth not available after upgrading to Mountain Lion

    Mine is a mid-2011 iMac. I tried all the ways listed in https://discussions.apple.com/message/4874277?messageID=4874277#4874277?messageI D=4874277 but with no luck.
    Anyone experienced similar issue with a solution?
    Thanks.
    Wenbin

    Yes, I'm having the exact same problem.
    1. Bluetooth not available from the menu option "Bluetooth: Not Available"
    2. Yet, my Bluetooth Apple Magic Mouse works as a basic mouse
    3. None of my gestures on magic mouse work (scrolling, swiping, etc.)
    4. My Apple Bluetooth wireless keyboard works, but the iTunes control from F7 to F12 no longer work as the pictures imply (e.g. F12 should be volume increase, but it goes to Dashboard)
    Reboot doesn't fix it. Haven't try safe mode.
    APPLE, PLEASE HELP.

  • Mac mini bluetooth not available after updrading to OSX 10.8

    The bluetooth module is not available  after upgrading to OSX 10.8 on a mac mini late 2009, anyone with this issue?
    Message was edited by: Magnusum

    I have an issue where I get Bluetooth mouse/keyboard at the login screen, but once it goes to the desktop they are both dead. This only happens when I have my Drobos plugged up via FireWire. If I boot without those devices plugged in, it works.
    Anything like that for you?

  • Mail App Not Opening After Upgrading to Yosemite

    I upgraded to Yosemite this morning from Mountain Lion. Everything seemed to go well until I clicked Mail for the first time. The migration process started, but the app never opened and will not open. I immediately get a crash dialog and that's it. I click reopen and get the dialog box saying, "The last time you opened Mail, it unexpectedly quite while reopening windows." I can do this over and over again. I've read the other threads, but they are not helping me.
    This is the log created after it attempts to open:

    Reinstalling OS X Without Erasing the Drive
    Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall OS X: Select Reinstall OS X and click on the Continue button.
    Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.

  • Logitech USB Speakers not working after upgrade to Yosemite

    After upgrading my MacBook Air to Yosemite, my Logitech Z305 USB speaker no longer work.  In fact, it isn't even recognized in the Output list in Sound in the System Preferences.  It worked nearly all the time with Mavericks, with an occasional need for a system reboot if no sound was coming out, but it was always displayed under the Output tab regardless.
    I just killed the coreaudiod process in the Activity Monitor, but this didn't do anything of note.

  • Bluetooth not working after upgrading to Maverick

    Hello All!
    I upgraded my Mac Pro system (NOTE: This is NOT the Mac Pro "Book" laptop, this is the Mac Pro tower system.) to Mavericks yesterday and now my iPhone (Verizon 4 model) won't connect via Bluetooth. It asks me for the pairing code number, which I enter in and then it shows for a split second as being connected, but then goes back to being disconnected. Then it will give me errors as.... it can not connect because Network connection is not available. Or device can not be found. Even though it shows my iPhone in the Bluetooth devices preference window on my Mac Pro and also my  Mac Pro system on my iPhone Bluetooth settings device window.
    Anyone have any answers? Other than this is another Verizon scheme to block their iPhone users into paying another surgcharge or fee to now be able to connect via Bluetooth?
    Thank you!
    Kevin

    You're very welcome.
    That is very interesting, because I didn't know of anyone who upgraded to W8.0 with a Ralink wireless card with the BT 3.0 radio that got the BT to work at all.
    We tried the W7 drivers, and they didn't work.
    That is why you don't see a W8 Ralink BT driver for the bluetooth on your PC's support and driver page amongst the other 11 drivers listed.
    The Ralink 3.0 version of BT is not supported in W8.
    While somehow the BT has worked in W8 for you, I'm afraid your luck has run out.
    Unless by some fluke, HP installed a card with the BT 4.0 radio on your model...
    You can try this W8 driver for the Ralink card with the BT 4.0 radio, but don't get your hopes up.

  • Thunderbolt ethernet not working after upgrading to Yosemite

    After a very long and frustrating 2 days I have managed to upgrade my MacBook Air (13 Inch, Early 2014) to Yosemite. I have the official Apple thunderbolt to ethernet adapter but System Preferences/Network reports that the cable has been disconnected. It has not and other devices connected to the ethernet cable work fine. Any suggestions to get it working? Anyone else having the same problem?

    I have a similar problem. My Macbook Pro Retina 15" (1st generation) can no longer connect to my university network through a Thunderbolt-to-Ethernet adapter since upgrading to Yosemite. (Actually, OSX 10.9 on a different machine altogether also has the same problem -- tested and verified.) I tried multiple dongles and multiple Ethernet cables, and finally called our tech support. We found a workaround for the problem by purchasing a USB to Ethernet adapter, but this now means that instead of a single device chain leading into the laptop, I am now using multiple ports. I hope a patch for this is in the works.

  • IPhone Bluetooth not working after upgrading to iOS 6.1.2

    I used to pair my iPhone with my Blue&Me system in my Fiat Car and it was working perfectly hitherto. Recently I have been experiencing problems with Pairing my phone with my car Bluetooth system (Which I sometimes use for receiving calls).. The phone though identifies the car system in the discovery mode but is not able to pair  and establish connection. My car Bluetooth system is working just fine with other phones. Request apple / or anyone who can help to help me overcome this issue. My car system is as important to me as iPhone and if this problem persists, i may be forced to change my phone.

    In the 4+ years of using iPhone and several other apple products, this is the first time that I am feeling frustrated with my iPhone 4S and Apple. I am surprised that so many people around the world are facing the problem with their blue tooth devices after upgrading the iOS and still there is no hope of having this situation resolved. The cause of breakage of communication between iPhone (my investment, my ownership) and other devices is of apple origin and apple can't walk away by suggesting that the other party should upgrade the Bluetooth Firmware.
    In my case, My iPhone 4S stopped paring with My Fiat car blue&me system after updating to iOS 6.1.2. The problem has not been solved in iOS 6.1.3.
    If this problem is not solved in next update the ovious solution is to move to android as I can change my phone but I can't change my car that eaisly.
