Problem to connect iPhone 4s (6.0) to a HP Pavilion DV6 laptop via Bluetooth
I'm having problem to connect iPhone 4s (6.0) to a HP Pavilion DV6 laptop via Bluetooth, the plan is to share the Internet (3G) from the iPhone to the laptop.
The driver for serial port is not installing and I don’t have the option to connect to Internet via the iPhone. The problem is isolated to the iPhone as my Samsung mobile installs and connects ok, and is available in the control panel. During install I receive an error that the drivers (I guess for the COM port) cannot be found by WIN7. Drivers and options for headset, sound, SMS etc has installed correctly and is selectable in the control panel for Bluetooth.
For troubleshooting I have reinstalled HP Bluetooth package sp44774.exe, no success. I then goggled and found a another package sp53961.exe, still I have the problem. Windows Update is configured to auto search for updates.
Anyone have an idea what to do next?
Amazing how it can be the simplest things that get overlooked. Glad it is working.

HT204387 connect iphone 5s to windows laptop via bluetooth
I am trying to connect my iPhone 5s to my Windows Laptop via Bluetooth. The laptop can see the iPHone but cannot connect. What can I do?
Hello Rick,
Congratulations on your new iPhone 5s! To wirelessly sync your iPhone with iTunes, you need to be connected using a Wi-Fi network. I found an article that has the steps outlined on how to sync your iPhone wirelessly with iTunes:
Wi-Fi syncing
Open iTunes
To set up Wi-Fi syncing, connect your iOS device to your computer with the included USB cable. Select your device under Devices on the left-hand side.
In the Summary tab, select "Sync with this [device] over Wi-Fi".
Whenever the computer and the iOS device are on the same network, the iOS device will appear in iTunes, and you can sync it. The iOS device will sync automatically when all of the following are true:
The iOS device is plugged in to power
iTunes is open on the computer
The iOS device and the computer are on the same Wi-Fi network
While the iOS device appears in the left-hand column of iTunes, you can select the content tabs and configure sync options.
Click Apply or Sync to sync the iOS device.
You can find the full article here:

i cant connect my i phone 4 to my sony vaio laptop via bluetooth i am having problem can any one help me how can i connect my i phone 4 to my laptop using bluetooth i tried to paired but it just doesnt work help me pls!!
Unless you're trying to tether your phone to your computer or create a personal hotspot, it won't pair with your computer by bluetooth. File transfer by bluetooth is not supported. So, you can quit trying unless you're trying to tether.

Hp pavilion dv6 laptop has a black screen problem.
Hello,
I dont know how to fix my hp pavilion dv6 laptop.
The laptop is working,have the necessary sounds after i
turn it on,but the problem is that the screen stays always black
..I connect the lap top to tv screen or external monitor and it shows that everything is working properly.
The laptop may have hit a hard surface. The laptop worked well until about 1 week ago when I turned it on and the screen was hazy at first. I turned it off and turned it back on and the screen was completely black but still had the start-up sound. Someone suggested I see if it works on an external monitor and that worked.
Does anyone kow how I can fix the black screen of my hp pavilion dv6 laptop?
I do lots of study with it and have my exams coming up soon. I need my laptop to be mobile with me and not stationed in one place. Thanks in advance for the help!Hello Chi123,
I see that you are having problems with the display on your HP computer. I would like to help with this issue but I need some information.
Can you provide the model and product number of the computer? Here is a link that shows how to find that information.

Hi there,
New to the iphone, and love it, but I would like to send a couple of files and photos to it from my previous phone via bluetooth... My previous phone was an LG KM900 and im having difficulty pairing with it... saying its not supported.,
Can someone give me a list of compatible bluetooth(able) phones, and i will do it through a third party...
Many thanks and I do hope there is a way to do this
regards
DebzThis is not a feature of the iphone or iOS.
Bluetooth is supported for stereo headsets/speakers, handsfree telephone
devices/headsets, some keyboards, some peer-to-peer apps from the app
store and internet tethering where provided by the carrier.
Other than this it will not connect to a phone/computer/device. (thanks to ckuan for the wording)
You could try emailing the files/photos from the LG and then open the emails
on the iPhone. Depending on the type of file, the iPhone should be able to at
least view the contents - editing will require an app capable of dealing with that
particular type of file. Photos should be viewable unless in proprietary format. -
I'm one of many users who has had problems with the sound crackling problem with their sound card after upgrading to Windows 7.
I was previously on Windows Vista running 5. with 24-bit, 96000Hz sample rate Studio Quality with no problems at all. When I upgraded to Windows 7 RC, Windows was able to automatically find a driver for my external USB sound card, but when playing music, I always got a constant crackling sound coming from the speakers while trying to put the card in anything above 2. or and when putting it in 24-bit 96000Hz, the crackling only got worse. Installing the Beta drivers on the Creative site didn't work either... still had the crackling. I searched around for the past several months for solutions to no avail.
Then today, I was surfing the HP website (I have a HP Pavilion dv6 24-ca laptop) to see if they had added Windows 7 drivers to their support site and they did... and so I started downloading all available Windows 7 drivers for my specific laptop. When I first installed Windows 7 RC, it had installed it's own drivers for everything (on-board sound etc.). After replacing the Windows 7 installed "High Definition Audio Device" drivers with the HP supplied "IDT High Definition Audio CODEC" drivers... I'm not sure if the on board sound driver has anything at all to do with the crackling on the Soundblaster but I replaced the drivers anyway. I also installed another driver called "AMD USB Filter" that was supplied by the HP website for Windows 7 which is another driver that I thought might help with the problem. Other drivers installed were "ENE CIR Reciever Driver" and "Realtek Card Reader Driver" but those have nothing to do with the sound card.
After installing the drivers from the HP website, I no longer get the crackling from the speakers when playing in 5.. I am also now able to select 24-bit 96000Hz sample rate without crackling as well I am very happy to have finally solved the problem. So to anyone having similar problems, I suggest you check out your manufacturers website to see if they have any drivers available for you... I have a feeling the AMD USB Filter is what solved the problem... but who knows.
Hope this helps other HP users!Try this video let me know if it helps you out.

If you can hear the music through the speakers but not the headphones I would suggest using an AUX cable because seems the sound isn't being transmitted over.
Just a friendly note here. Don't buy the wireless turtle beaches I have the x32s and I'm continuously buying batteries !

IPhone 3GS won't sync with HP Pavilion dv6-1259dx with Windows 7
I have had an iPhone for 2 months now and still haven't been able to sync it to my computer. I went to the Apple store and the worker there told me to just keep updating iTunes and eventually there will be an update that fixes it. That has yet to happen. When I attempt to sync my iPhone a window appears. "iTunes has stopped working, Windows is checking for a solution to the problem..." and then "A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available." Everytime, it is very frustrating, can someone please try to help me.
When I attempt to sync my iPhone a window appears. "iTunes has stopped working, Windows is checking for a solution to the problem..."
Let's have a look at your Problem reports to see if they show up any more information about the errors.
Head into your Problem Reports and Solutions Control Panel (Or the Windows 7 equivalent ... the "Action Center"?) and open your problem history. Look for iTunes problem reports that occurred at about the same time as the iTunes errors, open them up and have a look through them.
Do they all seem to be saying pretty much the same thing? If so, paste the contents of a typical report into a reply here so we can have a look. -

Possible to Sych iPhone to Apple Laptop via Bluetooth Like Steve Did?
Several years ago at a Macworld Steve Jobs demoed a Sony/Erickson cell phone that interacted with an Apple laptop. What was pretty cool was his ability to have the cell phone interact with the laptop's address book, show a picture of the caller, and then actually take the call via the laptop.
I don't know with all the MobileMe, synching features and the iPhone's caller picture pop up maybe this is to old of a feature to pursue? However, it would be neat not to have to dig the iPhone out of the briefcase or pocket and take a call via the laptop.Here is a link to the manual. It will answer many questions.

Connecting iPhone 3G to Windows Vista laptop
Is there a way I can connect my iPhone to my laptop via bluetooth? I have tried directly-no go also have tried a bluetooth dongle (2.7) but again, no go..
I have successfully upgraded my iPhone to iOS4You can't do it, as tethering is not supported on the iPhone at this time. Perhaps in a future version of the iPhone software it will be available, but until then you'll just have to wait and see.
If you have further iPhone questions, you should probably post them in the iPhone forums:

I have had problems syncing my iPhone 4 and my iPad on my Windows XP laptop. My computer had a virus and spyware, but is now fixed. I was then able to sync both phone and ipad, but when I tried to update to ios-5.0, the update worked, but the restore would not. Now I don't know what to do with my phone. Is there a way to get the restore to work, or should I set it up as a new phone. I have lots of apps, etc. that I do not want to lose.
Hello,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
I understand the IDT Audio driver is missing. I can help you get it back, but first I require the following information:
1. The computer's model number. If you require assistance locating this information, please reference this website: Guide to finding your product number
2. The computer's operating system. If you require assistance locating this information, please reference this website to determine your Windows operating system.
3. Have you installed any new hardware on this computer, before the issue appeared?
4. Have you installed any new software or drivers on this computer, before the issue appeared?
