IPhone 4 / Bluetooth / Windows 7 / Peripheral Device not installed?
I am unable to install my iphone 4 to the new laptop I have, OS Windows 7. The devices pair fine and recognize each other, I just keep receiving error messages when the driver automatically installs. It reads "Bluetooth Peripheral Device" not installed. Any solutions???
Thanks

I realise this is an old topic, but it seems everyone has the wrong band-aid fix.
The correct fix is as follows:
The issue is that Windows doesn't recognise the iPhone as a Bluetooth Peripheral Device and cannot find the correct driver to download and install.
Follow the following steps:
- First, you need to install the appropriate 'Windows Mobile Device Support' software for your version of windows (32 and 64 bit versions have different files to download). It may look like it didn't install in Windows 7, but that's ok. It did.
- Turn on the bluetooth discovery mode on the iPhone.
- Select 'Add a Device' in Devices and Printers, follow the instructions to connect and enter the 8 or 9 digit key into your iPhone.
- Your iPhone should be found and automatically install all the software and drivers except for the Bluetooth Peripheral Device driver.
- In Devices and Printers, right click the iPhone, select properties, and then the hardware tab.
- The first device function should be 'HID-compliant consumer control device. Ensure it's selected.
- Select Properties, and in the next window select 'update driver'
- Select 'Browse my computer for driver software'
- Select 'Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer'
- Select 'Bluetooth Radio' from the left hand side listing
- In the next window, select 'Microsoft Corporation' on the left, and 'Windows Mobile-based Device support' from the right side.
- Install this option, clicking through the warnings and accepting this option.
- Now you have the device driver installed, and your iPhone will be connected via Bluetooth when you need to pair it - great for file transfers and internet access without turning the radio on.
I hope this helps. This is the proper fix. Not the 'pressing two keys at the same time' or unchecking the option that only allows some features to be used.

Is there any way to connect my ipod touch to my laptop that is running Windows 7? I've tried and tried and very time it will connect but then when it goes to download the drives an error pops up saying "bluetooth peripheral device not found".
The bluetooth is largely meant for speakers and keyboards, not data transfer.

Streaming Audio through Iphone 5 to desktop or laptop using bluetooth preinstalled on all devices not working. Help!!!. Does anybody else have this problem?. Or does anybody have a solution to the problem. If So please help me its driving me demented seriously concidering to go to android for that sort of stuff cause of the dame restrictions on apple devices!
iOS devices do not pair with computers, as data transfer over bluetooth is not supported.
Computers are not airplay compatible unless you have downloaded an app to make them so.
User to user forum, so I don't care if you switch to android or any other threats you make. -
On the moment that I connect the Iphone 5 on Windows 8, it is not recognized by Itunes, but actually it appears as a usual USB cable, or as a camera. And then I can't synchronize the Iphone 5 with Itunes. So, what do i do?
Hi pedro109,
If your iPhone is recognized by the computer, but not seen by iTunes, you may need to restart the Apple Mobile Device Service, as described in this article -
How to restart the Apple Mobile Device Service (AMDS) on Windows
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1567
Once iTunes recognizes the iPhone you should be able to sync it with iTunes. See this article
iTunes 11 for Windows: Sync contacts, calendars, and other info with iPod, iPhone, or iPad

Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.

If you didn't enable find my iphone in icloud settings on your phone, then you can't do a lost mode or lock your phone.
I would assume you had a passcode on your phone to lock it. If you didn't then start changing your passwords.
Report the lost to your phone carrier - local authorities. -
Satellite C850-B519 - Bluetooth peripheral device not found
I have Satellite C850-B519 notebook serial no. 9c287842r from egypt where i live but after downloading bluetooth drivers from toshiba website and installed i got that *"bluetooth peripheral device"* couldn't be found .....also when installing toshiba bluetooth stack it gives me that screen ( it's the jpg link ) and make no progress even i left the notebook installing for 3 hours without any progress
Please answer me i'm sick of it> and already installed realtek waln driver in addition to realtek bluetooth filter package
As I said: Realtek WLan driver -> Realtek BT filter package + Toshiba BT stack
Here you can get the BT stack:
http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/bluetooth/
Finally you have to enable the BT using F12 (or Fn + F12) to finish the installation!
> my friend has a toshiba c850 with win 8 installed but bluetooth stack have my problem .....i don't know what the hell is wrong with c850 series
First of all not all Satellite models supports Bluetooth. In case the BT isnt supported, you could not install BT drivers and BT stack!
Furthermore the Satellite C850 series is equipped with different modules (Atheros, Intel or Realtek). Usage of wrong drivers leads to the same error. -

HT201401 MTP USB Device not installed
Hello -
I'm new to this community message board.
I recently started having this problem about two months ago. Up til that time I didn't have this problem.
When I would connect my iPhone 4S to my windows 7 computer, the folder files would pop up and ask if I wanted to open the files from the iPhone connection through the USB port that I have always used.
It started two months ago, that when I connected my iPhone in the same way that I have always connected through the USB port, that instead Windows would recognize the connection but attempt to install the drivers. A message always comes up saying that Windows can not install the MTP USB Device because It can not load the drivers for this device and Code 31.
I've searched the web for solutions but have not found any that fix this problem. These are troubleshooting things that I have tried:
I have downloaded and installed the lastest iTunes application.
I have upgraded the iPhone to the lastest IOS
I have reset the iPhone, then reconnected to USB port on computer
I have connected the iPhone to another USB port on my computer
I have selected an earlier Windows System Restore point at a time before this problem existed and restored my computer
I have used the Windows 7 installation disk to repair the Windows Operating System
I have uninstalled the drivers for the iPhone in Device Manager, restarted the computer and then connected the iPhone and USB cable to the computer.
I have used another USB Cable to connect the iPhone to the computer.
I have looked in Control Panel under Devices - the Apple Mobil Device Driver is displayed with no problems. However the iPhone is displayed with a triangle and an exclamation mark in the triangle.
I have viewed Device Manager in Windows 7 and looked in these categories: Universeral Serial Bus Controller - everything is okay, no triangles with exlamation marks in them or any other markings on any of the Standard Enhanced PCI to USB Controllers. The Category in Device Manager called Human Interface Devices also looks okay.
In Device Manager the category Portable Devices lists H:\, MTP USB Device, WPD File System Device Driver all have the small yellow triangle with the exclamation mark in the triangle. When I double click to open these devices up in Device Manager they all say the device is not working properly because windows can not load the drivers required for this device. (Code 31).
Windows 7 still does not recognize the iPhone as it use to do with the open file window that pops-up when the iPhone is connected to computer. Windows shows these drivers for the iPhone on my computer and these show up in the properties of the MTP USB Device - which is what Windows 7 calls the iPhone connection.
UMDF\WpdMtpdDr.dll
winusb.sys
WUDFRd.sys
WpdMtp.dll
WpdMtpUS.dll
So has anyone had this problem of Windows giving error message “can not load drivers for this device and Code 31” and is there a fix?
Thank you if you can help with this problem.I had the same iss - it's a known issue whereby Windows attempts to use the wrong driver to access the phone.
BACK UP YOUR REGISTRY!!! Editing the registry can be (read: IS) dangerous and can cause no end of pain if done incorrectly.(But dont wort..i did it...)
- To Back Up your Registry: Click Start menu and click "Run". Type "regedit". Click File, then choose export and type "iphone driver fix registry backup".
- Click Export and let it export the the registry to a file.
- To fix the issue: Follow the folder tree on the left to: hkeylocalmachine > system > current control set > control > class
- Find “{EEC5AD98-8080-425F-922A-DABF3DE3F69A}” down the LEFT hand side and click on it.
- Under the list on the RIGHT hand side find "UpperFilters"
- Right-Click UpperFilters and click delete
- Close the registry editor and restart your PC (without the iphone attached).
- Once restarted and logged back in, plug in your iphone and voila! Windows will actually choose the correct driver and you'll be in like flynn. -
Hp Officejet Pro 8600 on Windows 8.1 driver not installed
Using Windows 8.1 and HP Officejet pro 8600. The printer is installed on a wireless network. But on Device Manager, it says "driver not installed". Most printing tasks are successful, but for some I need to have the driver installed on the computer. I have tried troubleshooting, but am unsuccessful. I would appreciate help. Thanks
Hi emax,
Print a configuration page to get the printer's IP address. Printing a Network Configuration Page.
If you have a valid IP address for the printer then try and access the Embedded Web Server for the printer.
Type the IP address into your web browser's address bar. (Internet Explorer)
If it loads the printer's network page then the printer is on the network.
Power cycle the router, computer and printer.
Try printing again.
If the issue persists, add a new device if the IP address is valid.
Right-click the Start button () or the lower left corner of the screen, and then click Search.
In the Search box, type HP, and then click the icon for your printer. The printer software opens.
Click Utilities, and then click Printer Setup & Software Selection.
Click Connect a new printer.
Test the printer over the wireless network.
Please provide the following information so I can assist you better.
What is the printer's first 3 sets of numbers for the IPV4 address?
Could you access the printer's EWS?
Were you able to add a new device?
Thank You.

Windows 7 drivers will not install for Printsmart B209a
Ok, I have tried to solve this for the better part of 2 days on my own.. I have tried every solution I can find by google and forums..
In the device manger it show that my printer drivers are not installed, when i try to install them Windows tells me the drives are not digtally signed and I and not it's not sure they are committable with my printer.. When I tell it to go ahead and intestinal them it tries then tells me it can not due to one of the above..
I have uninstalled the drivers and reinstalled them so many times I have lost count.. I have used a uninstaller to make sure I got every little piece of the driver I can find..
Now when I try to install them, it hangs at about 89% and tells me it is waiting for a SPL response from the printer.. and that never happens.
So can someone please help me with these two problems..
Thanks in advance for your knowledge, time and effort..Make sure that you run the correct OS bit version download for your computer. Do you have 64 bit or 32 bit win 7? did you install software by cd or online?
if it hangs at 89% , that means your firewall is limiting the installation.
what is the brand of your anti-virus software?
Although I am working on behalf of HP, I am speaking for myself and not for HP.

Client Security Solution error - Device not installed
After the latest update, the TV Fingerprint Software version 5.9.5.7038 was installed. Since then, the fingerprint scanner works well to start up, but if I open an Internet Explorer page which is password protected, instead of the scanner coming up, I get this message:
"The requested operation requires fingerprint authentication, but the device is not installed. Please make sure the device is connected and retry the operation."
Is there a fix for this? If not, is there a way to roll back to the previous version of the fingerprint software? Everything worked perfectly until this update.
