Problems with bluetooth in Boot Camp

I recently installed windows xp with bootcamp on my macbook and the bluetooth is acting weird while in windows. It will pair with my devices (Phone: Samsung D-407, Headset: Plantronics Explorer 220) but in the bluetooth connections window it will only show them as connected for a second or two and my devices won't work. I did install Service Pack 3 for windows and I don't know if that affected it or not because I didn't try the bluetooth before updating. Would that cause any problems or is it something else?

I'm having problems with my MacBook Pro's bluetooth support in Vista under Boot Camp so I thought I'd try to re-install the Boot Camp 2.1 drivers. However, whenever I run the setup program, it just gives me a useless error message saying it encountered an error before it could start the install, and to please try again later. Rebooting doesn't help.
So I thought maybe I could uninstall all the Apple stuff then start again. But when I try to uninstall "Boot Camp services" from the programs and features control panel, it starts to uninstall, but then gives up silently as it nears the completion of the "gathering information" dialog.
So I can't uninstall or re-install this thing. Anyone know how I can fix this?
Thanks!
It may be too late, but have you tried going into the drivers using Vista's control panel and either removing the drivers or reverting to precious drivers?

USB problems with XP and Boot Camp

XP Professional loads on my iMac using Boot Camp without any problem. The trouble appears to be associated with any USB device. I currently have an Apple keyboard, plain Microsoft Mouse and Altec Lansing headphone/speaker plugged in to the iMac (not to a hub). Problems, which seem to strike without warning, include freezing and strange graphics behaviour, invariably accompanied with several "bong"-like noises which my friends who are familiar with Windows tell me is a sound associated with USB devices. The incidents last for between five and sixty seconds on average. I have the most up-to-date drivers installed.
Can anybody suggest a possible cure?

It now looks increasingly as though the problem is associated with the keyboard, which is the basic white plastic keyboard provided with the iMac. Still haven't found a cure, though.

Problems with graphics after Boot Camp upgrade (from 3.1 to 3.2)

Right, today I upgraded Boot Camp (the first time I used iTunes on Windows so thats way I never did the upgrade before) from 3.1 to 3.2 and after the installation my screen went blank/black. After restarting iMac it the screen appeared but in 1024x768 resolution and without working graphic drivers.
I tried many different options to update the ATI HD 4850 driver, but none of them worked. It always says that there is some problem with it, but it also is up to date every time I try to update it manually for the drivers which comes with 10.12 Catalyst.
I spend several hours trying to solve it, but I just can't and I really don't know what to do next.

Right, I managed to fix it by updating the software manually, but selecting to choose from the list and I had to install the mobility drivers.

Boot Camp Problem:Where is that Boot Camp Assistant

I just finished installing window 7 64 bit and put the serial key. (I started up Window 7 for 1st time)(I was able to access both mac and windows)
But when i take a look in my window, i did not find the Boot Camp Assistant(Which is supposed to be in the taskbar)
Can anyone help me with this?
Problem:Can not find boot camp assisstant on the taskbar in Window 7(Which should be, since my friends has it) nor in the control panel.
I also cannot see the Mac Drive for some reason(I used my friend boot camp to referance this)

Bootcamp Assistant is what you used to create the Bootcamp partition. It will not show up in Windows. If you mean the Boocamp Control Panel, did you install the Windows Support software?
You should visit the Bootcamp Forum https://discussions.apple.com/community/windows_software/boot_camp

Nokia n80 problem with bluetooth

hello all
i have an n80 which i have given to my mother.
there seems to be a problem with bluetooth. i can connect it to my laptop by bluetooth and use the connection to browse the phone and transfer files but for some reason when i try to sync with outlook the connection always fails, all the time, no matter what.
can anyone think of any reason for this?
i have tried looking for firmware updates as i havent used the handset for 18mths but i cant find the pc cable so it wont identify the phone when i run a search.
any suggestions (apart from find the cable!) will be appreciated

Not being technically qualified enough on specifications of Bluetooth 3 all I can say is that Bluetooth SDP = Service Discovery Protocol seems to be absent fron N8, whereas it is present on say 5800XM and N97 Mini which appear to behave faultlessly with Toyota Bluetooth unit if this sheds any light.
Happy to have helped forum with a Support Ratio = 42.5

C2-00 Problem with Bluetooth headset

I use it for a week and have a problem with bluetooth headset.
When I finish a call my mobile is stop working.
The only way to get it back is remove a battery.
I try to use other bluetooth headset but it have the same problem.
Please help me to fix this problem.
Thank you.

conceivably, yes, that is how its supposed to work
i was just wondering if there was a way to turn it off somehow, so as to only enable the bluetooth for calls and not for all audio. unpairing and pairing the bluetooth definitely works, but it just seems like overkill everytime i want to anything regarding sounds (asise from calls)
thanks,
vasilis

Problem with bluetooth after downgrade Vista - XP

I've maked downgrade, but I have got a problem with bluetooth. System shown my new device, but it look for driver. I have downloaded it from http://www-307.ibm.com/pc/support/site.wss/document.do?sitestyle=lenovo&lndocid=MIGR-67782 but its wrong. The file name is 68bt02ww.exe
My notebook id Lenovo 3000 N200
Does anybody know where can I find the correct driver?

Thank you for testing this out, rabshm. If you go to Settings>Bluetooth>Paired Devices>and select the Settings/cog wheel> You will see a series of configuration options for Bluetooth services. Try disabling them all, and start testing by turning on one setting at a time. See if there is a conflict with the incoming messages.
Let us know if this helps.
Thank you, rabshm

I've a problem with bluetooth on my iphone 4

HI!
I've a problem with bluetooth on my iphone 4 : it doesn't recognize anything
what can I do ?

What do you mean anything?
IPhone support bluetooth for stereo speakers/headsets, handsfree telephone devices/headsets, some peer-to-peer apps from the app store, some bluetooth keyboards, and tethering where provided by the carrier.
Other than this, it will not connect to another phone/device/computer.
Withe what are you trying to connect?

Serious problem with bluetooth after upgrade to iOS6.1

After upgrading to iOS 6.1 I have found serious problems with bluetooth, now I can not see the other iphone and vice versa.
Someone has the same problem?
Why Apple continues to restrict bluetooth functions?

Hi,
Thanks for your answer. Yes I've checked parameters modification and SPICBOOKING is "well" launched but it produces no results, so I guess there are some other changes in dimension customizing of AccountL or Datasrc....by the moment I'm testing but with no luck. This happens when you are about to go live and decide to upgrade your system....

Guys this might be solution: Turn off your laptop. Disconnect all devices connected to the PC. Remove battery and disconnect from wall. Press the power button at least 20 seconds. Connect back battery and turn on your PC. It should be fixed by now, I did with my Pavilion 14, and both sleep and turning off problems were fixed.re: Black Screen and Dead keyboard after locking computer. I tried this with my Envy 17t-3200 3D CTO. Didn't help. for this computer this means removing the back cover and unplugging the battery wiring harness form the Motherboard. I currently have sleep mode disabled when on AC and am still getting the black screen, dead keyboard lockup. I really know I'm hosed since even the caps-lock is non-functional. I see this problem more when I'm at work were I tend to Win-L lock the screen when I walk away from my desk. Seems like locking the computer then letting the screen blank is doing something evil. After I force a reboot, by keyboard backlight forgets it's setitngs and returns to full brightness. If I lock the screen then bring back the computer before the screen is blanked, it seems fine. I don't think there's any way to adjust the screen blanking when the lock screen is up (even my desktop power-saves the monitors after a few minutes on the Lock screen). I'm not sure it's HP or MS that should be looking into this. My computer is about 3 years old so I can't pester HP with warranty requests. I'm not sure how prevelant this problem is. Are all Pavellions and Envy's having the problem? Mine has Radeon graphics which was a bit unusual at the time. I have to install the HP Display driver before any AMD updates or the screen dimming doesn't work (at least with win 7 and 8). Dave.
