How to reconnect to a forgotten blue tooth device (speakers)

how to reconnect to a forgotten blue tooth device (speakers)

I was searching for how to setup the 903+ and my W520 and came to this thread.
1. The OP was asking about audio and there are updated audio drivers / tweaks to get it louder / install different drivers.
but if you are going to go BT headset....
2. What I did for the 903+
Uninstalled the currently installed ThinkPad Bluetooth program. ( I forget the exact name, came stock and was out of date).
Required reboot.
Activated the Bluetooth with FN + F5 menu.
Downloaded the updated Bluetooth driver from lenovo (search lenovo driver matrix).
Ran the updated Bluetooth driver install.
Rebooted for good measure.
Double-clicked the Bluetooth Tray icon.
Clicked Add A Device.
Turned off my 903+ and continued to hold down the power to enable pairing mode.
Showed up in devices and added it.
Worked for audio. There are probably additional options for enabling the mic.
Hope that helps whoever might find this thread.

I need to know how to access and use the Blue Tooth device that comes with the Thinkpad W520

Forgive me for being a techo illiterate. But I know that this thing supports Blue Tooth. And one "problem" with it is although it has a DVD and sound card, music and movies have very lousy audibility. Is there something I can do about that? I can barely hear anything on a movie unless I plug in head phones to the computer. But that leaves me stuck in my seat. I'd like to get cordless headsets. And I'm ready to purchase the Plantronics BackBeat 903+ Wireless Stereo Headphones - Mic, Rich Audio, Bass-boost, Voice Alerts, OpenMic, 3-way Earpiece. And have heard that it's compatable with a pc that has Bluetooth capabilities. but could someone get back to me with exactly how I access and use the Blue Tooth device?

How do I listen to music from my iPhone 4S through a blue tooth device?

How do I listen to music from my iPhone 4S through a blue tooth device?

Which Bluetooth device specifically? And does it support A2DP?

Blue tooth device missing.

The laptop i own is a LENOVO G560 purchased from new york.I currently reside in mumbai,India. When i was about to set up my laptop to my surprise the bluetooth device was not detected..After several calls to the customer care and installing and reinstalling the drivers several times, I was told that there is a hardware issue.After exchanging emails and several calls to customer care again, i was told to visit the service center.
Now this is just the start of my horrifying experience. When i visit the service center , they open up the laptop and i was told that the blue tooth device is missing.And they refuse to order any part and fix it, because this is a case of manufacturing defect as there was no device present in the first place.So i was told to call up the customer care from the service center, as they do not communicate with the customer care themselves.And the customer care refused to help me with it saying it was the technical department and they do not handle such cases.So i was told to write an email asking for a replacement of the laptop.
Now i have written an email, but have got no reply yet. I don't know what i am supposed to do!

Can I use more than one blue-tooth device at the same time on IPhone 4S? Like a wireless headsets and speed and cadence sensor for cycling computer, receive the data and listen music simultaneously

Can I use more than one blue-tooth device at the same time on IPhone 4S? Like a wireless headsets and speed and cadence sensor for cycling computer, receive the data and listen music simultaneously

As long as the profiles are different (ex. HID vs AD2P) you will not have any issues. But say if you try to use 2 keyboards at once, it won't work. Or 2 headsets at once. Your scenario seems fine.

Is there a way to play to 2 blue tooth devices at the same time?

is there a way to play to 2 blue tooth devices at the same time from my ipad?

If you want to have 2 sets of headphones plaing at the same time, just get a headphone splitter. Here's a link to several that will work on your iPad......http://search.yahoo.com/search;_ylt=Ao7XF2KB2RaGRXX1SKOKmICbvZx4?p=headphone+spl itter+ipad&toggle=1&cop=mss&ei=UTF-8&fr=yfp-t-701

None of Blue tooth devices are being detected by my iPad

My iPad won't detect any bluetooth device. It keeps on looking and looking but will not detecte while the same device will be detected by my iPhone 4 and iPhone3.
I have tried 3 Hands free blue tooth devices but none is being detected. iPad won't even detect the iPhone 4 sitting next to it.

Many headsets use the Hands Free Profile (HFP) which is not supported by the iPad but is supported by the iPhone. On the iPad you can connect to devices that uses the A@DP profile which support stereo headphones and some headsets and speakers, keyboards via the HID profiles and some other devises for gaming. See the following for supported profiles:

Re-pair the devices and you should be good.

My iPad will not discover any blue tooth devices

My iPad will not discover any blue tooth devices. The Bluetooth is turned on but it will only discover a Blackberry phone and not my other iPad or 5s and 4s or a QED receiver.

To connect the devices over bluetooth, just enable Bluetooth in Settings app on both devices.
Bluetooth is activated automatically when Wi-Fi connectivity is not available or does not work properly.
Note: Initial Bluetooth connection takes around 15 seconds to activate.
This is the directions for the app. And all the reviews seem to just go right on through! I have a love hate relationship with my apples!!
Thank you so much by the way for trying to help me!

Which blue tooth device works the best withe the Iphone?

Ok, I have spent a lot of time reading about the blue tooth devices and I am confused. I do have my $100 store credit to spend ( but dont HAVE to use it for that) so I am wondering....what blue tooth device is the best? The Jawbone, Apple, Motorola ( heard they have a new H12 thats great)....so any comments? Thanks in advance and Happy Holidays.

I have the Apple Bluetooth Headset... I gave it a 3-stars out of 5 rating. It is really tiny which makes it easy to carry in your shirt pocket or wherever. But, it doesn't fit in my ear well.. had to pick up an adapter that lets it plug into the ear canal.. much better. Also, it's slow to answer a call and no noise reduction for your voice (background noise goes thru to your phone-partner.)
My sister has a jawbone and really likes it. Many others on this forum have recommended the jawbone as well. It's physically bigger, but apparently sounds really good and kills the background noise that your recipient would normally hear.

T61 - Blue-tooth device disappeared

Hello,
I have a T61 (7659-A96) and the blue-tooth device was available some months ago.
Because I didn't use to connect other devices using BT, I don't know exactly when the device availability was over.
Now, I can't find the device. At BIOS setup is not present the BT on/off setting. BIOS version is LENOVO 7LETB9WW (2.19 ) 06/06/2008.
I don't know if this model has a independent BT card or if it is builtin motherboard.
Thanks in advance.
Expedito
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I've found the solution.
I was expecting to find a Bluetooth on/off setting in the "Network" screen of BIOS setup.
But the Bluetooth was disabled at CONFIG/SECURITY/IO PORTS of BIOS Setup.
After I change to "enable" the Bluetooth is working fine.
Regards.

How can I send file through blue tooth?

I turn on my blue tooth but I cant transfer files.

You can only transfer files to another iphone or ipod and if it doesnt work try the app called bump but u can only share pictures,music,apps, and things like that.

I updated my IPAD 2 to ios 7 and now it will not connect wirelessly or recognize my blue tooth devices

I updated my IPAD2 to ios 7 and now it will not connect wirelessly or recognize my blue tooth devices

Some things to try first:
1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are droping internet connection)
    •    Launch Settings app
    •    Tap on Wi-Fi
    •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
    •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.
Some Wi-Fi losses may stem from a problematic interaction between Wi-Fi and cellular data connections. Numerous users have found that turning off Cellular Data in Settings gets their Wi-Fi working again.
You may have many apps open which can possibly cause the slowdown and possibly the loss of wifi. In iOS 4-6 double tap your Home button & at the bottom of the screen you will see the icons of all open apps. Close those you are not using by pressing on an icon until all icons wiggle - then tap the minus sign. For iOS 7 users, there’s an easy way to see which apps are open in order to close them. By double-tapping the home button on your iPhone or iPad, the new multitasking feature in iOS 7 shows full page previews of all your open apps. Simply scroll horizontally to see all your apps, and close the apps with a simple flick towards the top of the screen.
Wi-Fi or Bluetooth settings grayed out or dim

Can i link up to a blue tooth printer without a external blue tooth device

can i link up to a blue tooth printer without a external blue tooth device

The external device would also more than likely need to be a computer, not a smartphone (the Officejet 100 comes to mind).
Good luck!
