Sony DR-BT21G Wireless Headset & windows 7. Device driver software?

Hi Guys, trying to connect my Sony DR-BT21G Wireless Headset , to my P.C via Bluetooth,
Operating system for my machine wasW8, but has been downgraded to W7.
I have installed a Bluetooth dongle.
The computer recognises the headset as a device, but states that "the Driver for the Bluetooth peripheral device is not installed"
Cannot find a download to fix this problem.. any ideas?

Please try the following. Each of these steps represents a possible solution to this issue, check the pair status after completing each step:
Make sure both devices are turned off at the beginning of the pairing procedure.
Be sure to place the Bluetooth wireless devices within 1 meter (3 ft) of each other.
Make sure that the Bluetooth wireless device is in the Pairing mode.
Enter the same Passcode for both Pairing devices.
Make sure that the profiles of the Bluetooth wireless devices match. Devices that do not support the same profile cannot be paired.
If the Bluetooth wireless device has a TX/RX (transmit/receive) switch, make sure it is set to the appropriate function.
Some Bluetooth wireless devices can function as a transmitter or receiver only. Two devices that serve the same function (transmit or receive) cannot be paired. You must pair a transmitter with a receiver.
The device you are trying to pair with must support Advanced Audio Distribution Profile (A2DP) and AVRCP (Audio Video Remote Control Profile).
If pairing is not established within five minutes, pairing mode will be cancelled and the Bluetooth headphones will automatically turn off. If this happens, perform the pairing procedure again.

Windows vista, Ipod shuffle 4th gen. Computer cannot find device driver software for ipod.

After several hours trying the troubleshooting options provided by the apple support site, I have come to what I think is the issue here. My girlfriend recently got an ipod shuffle and when plugging it into her computer the dialog pops up saying it is installing device driver software for the ipod. Eventually it asks me to insert the CD that came with the ipod. No CD came with the ipod, so I click the option that says "I do not have my cd". Then it gives me the option of searching automatically or manually for the driver software. The automatic way can't find it. Doing it manually, with the help of the troubleshooting page, didn't work either. google search can't seem to help me on this one. Also, I tried plugging the ipod into my computer (not hers) and it worked fine, it was able to install the device driver software on its own. Does anybody know the issue here? My computer has windows 7, and hers has vista. Hers is Serice Pack 1. When I tried installing service pack 2 it wouldnt work. I don't know if that is the issue though. I have tried just about everything, I think the issue is finding the device driver software. When I do a google search nothing comes up, so I have no idea what to do at this point. Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

Well its surprising to know that! But even have an ipod shuffle 3rd gen n dint face any problem like that. FYI no cd comes with the ipod jus take ur ipod to an apple exoert n he will solve ur problem .

When i open windows,a notification appears saying "installing device drive software" , later "device drive software was not successfully installed".What to do!

This has nothing to do with Mozilla Firefox. Device drivers are with usb drivers most of the time.

IPod Nano 8G - Win7 - Device driver software wat not successfully installed

Hi,
Just got my first Apple iPod Nano 8G (4th) and has installed iTune 9.0.2 (64bit) on my Win 7 Ultimate x64. But I am not able to connect iPod nor Sync with iTune successfully even after reinstall/reboot many times with the same problem.
After the installation of iTune accomplished, I plug USB adapter into PC, then Win7 detected and started to install the driver for the hardware, but got "Device driver software wat not successfully installed" as a result.
Then I went to Device Manager tring to install the driver manually for "Apple iPod USB Driver", but finally I failed again and got "Windows cannot verify the digital signature for the drivers required for this device....", I think this is the software problem, please kindly advise, thanks a lot!

First, my officejet 4500 all-in-one installed and is working perfectly with wireless; however, I have for months still/have been getting the error/uninstall window continuously, telling me install was not successful, but again, printer, scanner, etc., working fine! But this "the installation was not successful" window is ALWAYS up or if I ctrl-alt-del and get it to end now, it comes back up; I have even let it do its thing, finish, restart, but it ALWAYS comes back up, trying to find a solution, etc. BUT MY PRINTER IS WORKING FINE! Please help me get rid of this; also, the file that it puts on desktop to troubleshoot, etc then delete afterward, I have deleted it, but this "unsuccessful" keeps trying to uninstall, reinstall; and as I said, actually went through all the steps to get it gone (printer working fine) but it will not go away! Thanks. ajm

Install Device Driver Software for Palm TX

My new notebook has Windows Vista and I have had my Palm TX for almost two years. To install the Palm on my notebook I downloaded the version for Vista from Palm.com. When I went to synchronize the Palm with the computer during the installation the message kept coming back that "device driver software" could not be found. Where do I find the driver software? Is it on the original CD that came with the Palm? At this point I don't know what to do. Can someone help me with this problem?
Post relates to: Palm TX

mar008,
When you upgraded to Vista, did you install over the existing XP install on the same PC or get a new computer with Vista?
If you upgraded over the existing install of XP, you may need to do a "clean" uninstall and re-install Palm desktop. You should be able to use the original CD that you got with the TX on the Vista OS.
Not sure why you are getting the 680 message. Did you ever have a Treo 680 or a handheld that is a different model than the TX?
Here are the "clean" uninstall procedure for Vista.
You should first make a copy of your data to have just in case something
happens. You can find your data files by going to Start --> Documents -->
Palm OS Desktop. Highlight your Palm Desktop username and right click and
copy. Then go to your PC desktop right click on a blank spot and select paste.
Now you want to uninstall Palm Desktop and remove everything that has to do
with Palm Desktop from your computer.
Go to the following locations on the PC and delete the folders listed below.
C:\Program Files\Palm or Palm One
C:\Users\[Vista Login Name]\appdata\local\virtualstore\Program Files\Palm or
PalmOne
C:\Users\[Vista Login Name]\appdata
*Note you may need to view hidden folders to get to appdata. To do that go
into your control panel and open folder options. Go to view tab and uncheck
hide hidden files.
Once this is done you will need to delete some registry keys from your PC Operating System.
Word of warning, going here and deleting the wrong thing can cause your PC
from starting up, crashing and deletion of programs and data. If you feel
you are unsure of yourself, see if you have a friend that can help you or a
PC technician that you can pay to help you. This procedure will show them everything they need to delete. To make sure we have a good copy of the current registry, we need to do a backup of the Registry.
Go to start on the PC, in the search field type "regedit.exe" without quotes.
Highlight COMPUTER, go to File --> Export. Should pop up with a Save As box.
Current location is fine, should be in My Documents or save to a location you will remember. In the file name on the bottom type "backup[todaysdate]" i.e. backup07072008. Next, the hard part.
The easiest way to make sure your working with the correct key, highlight the key i.e. palm quick install, and press delete on your keyboard. It will ask you, are you sure. Say yes. Do the same thing for all keys below.
If you make a mistake, stop what you are doing. And call a PC technician.
BUT do not turn off your computer.
The reg keys are as follows (Note: some of theses reg keys will not be here
but if they are delete them)
* HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\U.S. Robotics\Palm Quick Install
* HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\U.S. Robotics\PalmOne File Transfer
* HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\U.S. Robotics\Pilot Desktop
* HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Palm
* HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Palm, Inc.
* HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\PalmDesktopAutorun
* HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\palmOne
* HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\PalmSource
* HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\PalmSource or anything else that says palm
Next reboot your computer.
Then reinstall your palm desktop from the CD and do a hotsync. If it asks
you for a username and you synced your device before, put in 'test" if you
did not sync before create a hotsync name.

Device Driver Software for Zire Z22

I have a Zire Z22 palm unit and am using Windows Vista on a desktop computer. I have loaded the special Palm Desktop Software suggested for Vista. But, when I connect the Palm using the USB cable and hit the hotsync button I get a message that the device driver software must be installed. It tries to search for the needed driver, but doesn't find it, not even on the Palm software disk. Where can I find the device driver software to download so I can hotsync?
Post relates to: Zire

Hi, and welcome to the Palm Community Forums.
There are more than one kind of Vista...32 bit or 64 bit. If your Vista machine is 64 bit, you are limited to syncing via IR (infrared) beaming. Please review the threads "stickied" near the top of the Windows Hotsync board about syncing a Z22 with 64-bit Vista.
If your Vista desktop is 32 bit, you might need to do a clean uninstall and reinstall. Stickies have that information as well.
BTW, I am moving this thread to the Windows Hotsync board.

Cant install device driver software, install device driver software

have recently updated my ipad to iOs 5 and now all i have is the 'connect to iTunes' page even when i have connected
it. my windows computer then tries to install device driver software but it canno be located .... really stuck and help would
be great ..

Sounds like your i tunes set up on the windows machine is messed up. Suggest you reinstall itunes again. Drivers etc should be in the package. A fair number of windows folks have firewall related time out issues, so turn the firewall off along with your antivirus when you do the i tunes download.

Failing to connect to desktop. Sony DR-BT22 Wireless Headset

I have a Sony DR-BT22 bluetooth Wireless Headset which is connected to my computer desktop through a TRENDnet Wireless Bluetooth USB Adapter. It was working fine in the beginning. but after a while the headset is not behaving properly. I tried resetting it multiple times.
I did a reset on the headset using a stray pin. I paired it fresh with my computer again after removing the old connections/icons. They all happens fine. But when I connect through "Headset" profile or "Handsfree" profile it does not give the audio on the sony headset.
I tried conecting also through the bluetooth places in my desktop, task bar icon etc.
The computer speaker stops playing sound and at the same time the sony headset is not outputting sound either.
the only way i was able to make it work partially was to going to control panel sounds section and changing the default output for voice to bluetooth headset instead of my realtek audio driver. The issue with that setting is, computer audio will only come to bluetooth and won't failover to default desktop speakers.
I tried connecting the sony headset to my blackberry and it pairs and works perfect without any of the above problems.
I was frustrated and purchased a motorola motorokr s9 hd bluetooth headset and they work perfect without any problem.
when connected it routes t he audio to bluetooth instead of computre speaker and when the bluetooth headset is turned off the sound failovers to default computer desktop speaker
Why is my sony headset not doing the intended behaviour. ? How do I fix this? i tried removing and configuring multiple times

TS1538 iPhone 5 and Windows 7 device driver not being recognized

I've de-installed in the correct order and re-installed all Apple software for Windows 7 x64 box.
I've manually added paths to the device driver.
I've re-scanned device manager.
I've gone through 4 different kbb articles.
Used 4 different USB ports on the Front Panel of this box.
I've restarted, stopped, started the Apple Mobile Device Service.
I've rebooted 15x, my Alienware R3 laptop works just fine.
I can see the iPhone 5 in iTunes, and this problem has been occurring with my iPhone 4.
Devices and Printers lists the iPhone and Apple Mobile Device USB driver without any conflicts on the exterior.
If you go into properties boom Unvailable. I've turned off every shield in Avast. I only have 1 A/V.
What else can I do?
The rig is a custom built i7 3770s, MSI motherboard, 16gb DDR 3 RAM, USB 3 support etc. I've tried everything... why won't my iPhone get recognized? I seriously do not want to wipe the box for a device driver. Does RDP software create conflicts with USB devices? I have a couple installed.

Hi Allan,
I am using 11.0.4.4 version of iTunes.

"NOKIA WINDOWS PORTABLE DEVICE DRIVER" on PC Suite...

I just upgraded my pc suite from 6.82 to 6.83. I have Windows Media Player11 installed. Almost the PC Suite setup was complete... Just when windows found a new hardware called "NOKIA WINDOWS PORTABLE DEVICE". But for full installation it requirs the prefered drivers to be installed. But it didn't found that i guess ! So it showed me an error msg.."The device can't be inslled" So, I opened device manager and unistalled "N70"(My phone) under portable devices. Then I reconnected my phone...and started Add new hardware wizard...At last the portable device installed ..But then I got another msg..which says..In future this device may not work properly !
Then I reopened device manager and under portable devices i found N70 which was installed succesfully..but the main one "Nokia windows portable devices" had an exclamanation mark and the status was "This device cannot start. (Code 10)" ! So...what the hell is this and if i had to download the previous version again..then how could i ?
CoOL

Same here - Windows XP, Nokia N70, PC Suite 6.83. Very annoying. Found that the answer was to uninstall software and throw PC out of Window. Drove over phone then dropped it from an upstairs window. Finally plunged phone into icy water and cursed it until green in the face.
Also, found out that reinstalling the software seemed to cure it. Had to go to device manager first and delete the Nokia N70 device that Windows had placed under 'Portable devices'

HT201302 pc with Vista cannot find device driver software for 3GS

Windows Explorer cannot the iPhone. iTunes sees the 3GS, the memory alloted to pictures, but does not show over 1500 pics. iTunes only recognizes pics in files on PC. There are under 50 in the files.
When I plug in the iPhone, it searches for the device driver, but cannot find one.
The iPhone is appearing in Control Panel / Auto Play. Changing this setting makes no difference.
The iPhone also shows up in Control Panel / Device Manager as a Portable Device referred to as a Digital Still Camera, it has a yellow yield icon on it. It says it has the correct driver. Also, below the camera listing is 5 other devices. They are all the same listing of "Microsoft WPD FileSystem Volume Driver", they all have a yellow yield icon on them.
I have deleted all the portable devices and rebooted. They come back, however I have the same problem.
If have tried a number of things, if I recall I saw "Code 10" at one pont. I do not remember the item it was attached to. I will follow-up with more info as I can get. I have had a 3GS for over 2 years. Apple Care tried to help me very diligently on an other Vista machine and had no success. Please Help, someone.
Q

Well its surprising to know that! But even have an ipod shuffle 3rd gen n dint face any problem like that. FYI no cd comes with the ipod jus take ur ipod to an apple exoert n he will solve ur problem .
