Restoring a Bluetooth Capability to my Satellite

Hi,
I have a Toshiba Satellite A215-S5837.  As purchased, it came with software that provided it a Bluetooth capability.
Later, in an attempt to save disc space, I deleted the Bluetooth software.  Now I have a new cell phone with a camera.  To download pictures from that camera, a Bluetooth connection is needed.  Is there any way that I can restore a Bluetooth capability to my Toshiba Satellite laptop?
Thanks.

The specs for your machine do not mention Bluetooth capability. However, I did find a Bluetooth driver for your machine using Windows Vista that you can try at your own risk.  It is linked below:

  • Bluetooth not working on Satellite PRO 660C

    Hello,
    I have bought recently a laptop Satellite PRO 660C, it has embedded the Bluetooth function but I have difficulties to make it work with a GSM or an IRIS Scanner (both have the Bluetooth capability)
    I would like simply to transfer files from these external devices to my Laptop (pictures)
    It works fine from Laptop to device but not in the other way ! There is an application (Bluetooth manager) that enables the transfer always from my Laptop, it looks like Toshiba didn't imagine the scenario where files have to be transferred in both ways.
    I get a message saying the transfer of files failed.
    If you have an idea how I should configure my laptop.
    Thank you
    Guido

    If the notebook is installed with recovery CD/DVD than it should be very simply. Enable WLAN using WLAN switch. When the WLAN LED is ON use FN+F8 key combination and choose BT option.
    After doing this it can happen that some BT components will be installed at first but after several minutes you should be able to use BT.

    There are BT adapters you can connect to the audio out on the TV.
    However, there's a few problems doing this:
    1) Randomly placing speakers will make your audio sound out of balance unless you indiviudally adjust each speaker for the optimal seating position.
    2) You'll need powered speakers, each speaker will need a plug or need to be connected to another speaker in the set for power. Battery powered speakers sound terrible and don't hold a charge for very long.
    3) BT audio is stereo only, lossy, and unless you're willing to lay out some cash for the speakers the sound fidelity is pretty bad. Expect fun things like crackles and audio pops.

  • My phone doesn't have bluetooth capability, otherwise, how would you connect to an apple watch?

    My phone lost its bluetooth capability. Are there any other ways for an apple watch to connect to your phone?

    Since you do not indicate, what model iPhone do you have, and why does it not have Bluetooth? If the Bluetooth is simply not functioning, you would need to take it in to have it repaired. Bluetooth is required for the Apple Watch.

    Hi
    You cannot connect any BT device to this notebook because this has not been equipped with any BT module.
    So BT is not available for this unit.

  • I recently purchased a car stereo with Bluetooth capability. I paired my iPhone 4S with it and it wasn't working properly. I went into forget this device. Then found out it was something they did when they installed it. Now it won't pair again. Help

    I recently purchased a new car stereo with Bluetooth capability. I paired my phone with the stereo and it wasn't working correctly, did forget this device. Found out it was a problem with the radio. Now it's fixed and my phone won't pair with it again. How can I pair it again?

    You will need to put the car stereo back into discovery/pairing mode. That may mean you removing the initial pairing of the device. See the user guide for the radio on how to put the device into discovery/pairing mode, and if necessary, how to remove the original pairing. This support document may also provide you with some assistance. http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3581

  • Adding bluetooth capability to eMac w/o

    I'm looking to add bluetooth capability to my eMac that didn't come with bluetooth installed. I added an airport card by myself, and it was fairly straightforward. Is there such a thing as a "Bluetooth card" that can be installed internally, or is my only possible option a USB dongle?

    All you need to do is to buy a BlueTooth dongle, for about £10, which just plugs in to a USB port and you are BT activated. But unless it is the D-Link one that Apple recommends, it may not work with a headset, though it works OK syncing with and transferring files to and from a digital camera.

  • Bluetooth capability

    I have a HP Pavillion G6-2208tx running Win8.
    How can I work out if my model has bluetooth capability?
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    The audio (both system speaker and Altec built ins) stopped working on my HP Pavilioin g7 notebook. It may be a failure of the chip set?
    Settings has entry for Add Bluetooth devices and shows 2 devices: my laptop and the Logitech Receiver (wireless keyboard) and 3 printers: Fax, HP ePrint, MS XPS Doc Writer (they must be preinstalled by either HP or Windows 8).
    Control Panel shows the program as IDT audio 1.0.6425.0.  installed 12/5/2012--which was the "birth" day of my device; I purchased it in February 2013.
    The HP Product# D1C20UA#ABA.
    There are also bluetooth files, but they're stopped and set to start manually--but I find no way to enable them.
    My attempts to pair Bluetooth sound devices (which are broacasting) to the laptop fail --Add devices routine fails to recognize the devices.
    One discussion suggested I check HP --do I need to purchase a dongle for bluetooth? The sellers said that it was built in, but I can't seem to enable it.  The Audio device manufacturer suggests I download/install Broadcom Bluetooth 4.0--which is designed for Toshibas, not HP. Are the Broadcom Bluetooth 4.0 codecs compatible with my system? or should I use something else? How? Windows 8 interface is extremely generic and unhelpful.

  • Is there anyway to pair a iOS7 i-phone with a bluetooth capable VW Passat?

    I've just bought a 60 plate VW Passat which is Bluetooth capable. It doesn't allow me to pair my i-phone 5 with iOS7 to it. I have reset the Multi Functional Display in my car to Factory Settings, and have deleted any paired devices with my i-phone. It still cannot pair the two. Is ther any way to do so?

    Turn key on.
    On the iPhone go to Settings > Bluetooth.
    The phone should simply discover it, I believe the car is always in pairing mode.  If not, it's under setup in the MFI.

  • Will the iphone 5 have better Bluetooth capability?

    All current iPhones are very limited.  Specifically my car will notify me of new SMS and read SMS out loud with most smart phones but not with any iPhone because of their limited Bluetooth file transfer capability.  I've seen lots of posts complaining that phones from 2004 had better Bluetooth functionality.  Are Apple going to do anything to address this?  I'm guessing not.

    I think it's pretty good now:

  • Bluetooth setup failure for Satellite L500

    Greetings,
    I just purchased a brand new Toshiba Satellite L500 yesterday. Everything is fine except fo the bluetooth. When I enable it using the FN key, the Vista Auto Setup automatically launches and the installation bar moves slightly and "new device inserted" sounds off and then "device removed" sounds off shortly after it, and then installaion is halted, I waited long but nothing seems to be happening, when I click on cancel, it prompts me that the setup is still running while it is not.
    Shall I take my device to the service center or is there any solution I can do it on spot to resolve this issue?
    Appreciate your kind assistance.
    Thank you

    >Shall I take my device to the service center or is there any solution I can do it on spot to resolve this issue?
    I dont think that you should contact the service center at this time
    I mean the guys will try to reinstall the OS using the Toshiba recovery disk and I think you can do this too without the help from service people.
    So if you want, try to recovery the OS and check if you BT would start again.
    PS: your should create the Recovery disk using the preinstalled Toshiba recovery disk creator tool!!!

    Open PC Settings > PC and devices > Bluetooth > there you can enable BT.
    After doing this you can change to the desktop and you will see the BT symbol in task bar.
