W510 - Windows Update: Broadcom ThinkPad Bluetooth 3.0 Optional Update

Windows Update is suggesting an optional hardware driver update for the Broadcom Corporation - Bus Controllers and Ports - ThinkPad Bluetooth 3.0 dated July 2011 and published 8/11.
I haven't seen any such update on the Lenovo website or via the Lenova Updates and Drivers control panel.
Has anyone installed this?
Thanks

This got installed for me on 8/13, without me noticing (would have scared the heck out of me if I had noticed --- trashed my T61p on a Bluetooth "upgrade" a while back).
Device Manager shows version 6.5.0.1455, July 20, 2011.
No problems noted, but I'm not a heavy BT user.  My hard drive is still intact, though.

  • T410 reinstallation fails after loading some windows optional updates

    Reinstalling a Thinkpad T410 Windows 7 Pro 64bit:  all is fine through Windows 7 SP1,  then all Thinkpad (Thinkvantage) drivers and then all the Windows security patches (to October 2013).
    HOWEVER loading some optional windows updates ( Bluetooth), or Windows .Net, or some of the other optional updates result in -get this- any keyboard entry freezing the currently active application it is meant for. 
    All other applications open and work fine as long as only the mouse is used. A keyboard entry only freezes the application it is meant for.  I once succeeded in having Google respond by entering a VOICE search item, but could never cut and paste ( -> keyboard entry!) into a Google search or any application
    Some other clues: rolling back (windows restore points) sometimes but NOT always return to a machine in good status. And starting in safe mode, the problem disappears. I have not had the patience to figure out which service /driver is causing the keyboard glitch. Will be ignoring these optional updates for now, but it would be good to know the reason this is happening ( a strange combination of drivers / inappropriate order loading updates? )

    Since you deselected IIS & Tomcat, it sounds like the links defaulted to Tomcat (port 8080).  WACS requires IIS to run and port 6405 is what WACS listens on.  You have a couple options.
    The easy solution would be to find the file:
    C:\Program Files\Business Objects\Tomcat55\bobjsetup\administrator_guide
    Right click on the shortcut file and change it to point to:
    http://localhost:6405/CmcApp/help/en/administration/html/default.htm
    Another option would be to uninstall and then do a full install rather than a custom install.  Let it install Tomcat and if it detects IIS, it will configure that as well.  Depending on how you plan to use the product, you may find yourself wanting to use Tomcat anyway.  If you've already spent a lot of time configuring your current system and are ok with changing the links as above, that would be the easiest solution.  Keep in mind, the latest revisions of the admin guide and other documentation can always be downloaded from Service MarketPlace.

  • Windows Proximity Un/Lock using ThinkPad Bluetooth with Enhanced Data Rate Software

    While installing the driver for ThinkPad Bluetooth with Enhanced Data Rate Software, the installer asks whether I want to include additional features such as Windows Proximity Un/Lock, file transfer, and others. However, after installing, I cannot find the Proximity Un/Lock option anywhere.
    Can someone please enlighten me as to how I can activate this built-in feature? THANKS!

  • ThinkPad Bluetooth with Enhanced Data Rate Software Problem

    I'm having a weird issue. I use a X200t tablet with Windows 7 Profession 64-bit.
    Apparently my current "ThinkPad Bluetooth with Enhanced Data Rate Software" is Version. 6.2.1.2900.
    Thinkvantage System Update wants me to download and install Version 6.2.1.3100.
    However, it tries and I get Error 1935 and it rolls back. Now when I start windows I get an alert about BTTray.exe not loading.
    Of course I searched this problem, but it seems to be some ancient thing (years old) and I've never had a problem before with any of the Bluetooth updates.
    I did notice that in past versions people said when they tried to uninstall the old version and install the new one, it just wiped their hard drive. I don't want to risk that so I thought I'd check here if anyone knew what was going on.
    Thanks!

  • Thinkpad Bluetooth power no longer turns on automatically (Fn+F5 is required)

    I had ThinkPad T61p pre-loaded with Vista, which I then upgraded to Windows 7 RTM. During all this time, integrated
    Broadcom BlueTooth has been working perfectly and I never had to turn it on manually with Fn+F5 - it was turned on initially after boot, and it was also always turned on after coming up from sleep mode.
    Windows 7 however got badly screwed up at some point, and I reformatted the machine and did clean new installation of Windows 7. I re-installed Lenovo drivers for BlueTooth adapter, and it does work, however every time the computer boots up or emerges from sleep, BlueTooth radio is powered off. Every time I have turn it on manually using Fn+F5 before I can use BT mouse, which is very annoying. 
    The question is what steps do I need to take to make BlueTooth power on automatically ? I know I can do Fn+F5 manually, but that's not a solution.
    Whatever Lenovo did when they customized Windows, made BT power on automatically, and that was also carried over by Windows 7 upgrade, but was lost after clean install.
    Solved!

    I posted a solution in this thread that may help you...

  • ThinkPad Bluetooth Laser Mouse button hardware issue

    I love my mouse, but the left button has recently been loosing its sensitivity, i.e. I need to click it several times before it responds. The issue is the same on several computers running different operating systems, so I strongly suspect this is an issue with the mouse itself. Does anyone know about cleaning techniques or other ways to troubleshoot the possibility of dust or dirt under the buttons?

    From further investigation:
    100% Reproducible Failure
    When I opened Firefox 11.0 with only a single tab, the window control icons (Minimize, Maximize, Close) would highlight properly on mouseover and work properly when clicked. When I then opened or switched to another tab, there was no highlighting on mouseover and they no longer responded to clicks. Other mouse actions did work properly, including window control icons in other applications I tested.
    I uninstalled and then reinstalled Firefox 11.0, set it to a new empty profile, but the problem persisted. I checked for other reports of this problem in Firefox, and while I did find a (very) few similar reports, I found nothing to indicate a general problem in Firefox.
    Successful Fix
    I uninstalled ThinkPad Bluetooth Laser Mouse, Lenovo Mouse Suite, ThinkPad UltraNav Utility, ThinkPad UltraNav Driver, and rebooted, which installed just the TrackPoint with the Microsoft PS/2 Compatible Driver, and the problem did not recur. I think installed the two UltraNav packages with System Update, and then the Lenovo Mouse Suite with the ThinkPad Bluetooth Laser Mouse, and the problem still did not recur. It continues to work properly.
    My Assessment
    My assessment is that something subtle had gotten screwed up in Lenovo UltraNav and/or Mouse Suite, which was corrected by uninstalling and then reinstalling everything. I do not think this is a problem in Firefox.
    Hope that helps,
    John

  • ThinkPad Bluetooth Sees Other BT Objects, but Won't See My BT Mouse

    My ThinkPad T420S Bluetooth is happily paired with my BT Printer and with a ThinkPad Bluetooth Mouse.  It will also "see" my BlueTooth phone when I make the phone's BT discoverable.  When I tried to pair it with a new Lenovo BT Mouse or with a new Targus Bluetooth Comfort Laser Mouse by using Bluetooth's "Add Device" Box, however, neither mouse would appear in the "Add Device" box.
    I have a ThinkPad 420S, Windows 7, 64 bit, Microsoft Bluetooth Enumerator (driver version 6.1.7601.17889) and ThinkPad Bluetooth 3.0 (driver version 6.5.1.4500).  The Device Manager says that my Bluetooth is working properly.
    When my ThinkPad failed to "see" a new Lenovo ThinkPad Laser Mouse, I assumed that the new mouse must be faulty and returned it.  But now that it won't see a new Targus BT Comfort Laser Mouse, either, I'm puzzled.  In both cases, the mice had new batteries.
    What baffles me is that my ThinkPad's bluetooth can see other discoverable BT devices -- including my old Lenovo BT Laser Mouse, which I was trying to replace because the left button has started to get temperamental.
    Puzzling, no?  Any suggestions?

    Upon further research I have learned that A2DP is not supported with any OSX 10.4.11. I think using Jack might be as close as I can get.

  • Windows Media Player 11 Bluetooth connect with N73

    Anyone can help me with connecting N73 to Windows Media Player via bluetooth?
    I have Nokia PC Suite updated and Bluetooth connects with it.
    I can see it on "My Computer" folder as a phone and also as a camera.
    In Device Manager, i can also see it as a "Portable Media Device"
    But Windows Media Player doesn't seem to detect it when it is connected to PC via bluetooth. Only when connected by cable. But as I want to get rid of the cable, how should I manage this?
    Thank you very much.

    As you are using Windows 7, you can use this extension from Microsoft - http://www.interoperabilitybridges.com/html5-extension-for-wmp-plugin

  • Thinkpad bluetooth laser mouse won't scroll in VMware

    Hi,
    I have the Thinkpad bluetooth laser mouse, which I really love, and use extensively VMware on my T500.
    Unfortunately the scroll wheel doesn't work in my VMware marchine (it's a XP pro VM)
    when I plug a very old usb IBM mouse the wheel does work however.
    I tried to install the Lenovo Mouse suite on the VM itself but it didn't pick the mouse, which I believe is normal since VMware is already providing the driver for the mouse.
    When I look in the hardware tab of the mouse properties in control panel, it list 3 devices:
    VMware Pointing Device
    HID compliant mouse
    HID compliant mouse
    Has anyone a clue on how to enable the laser mouse wheel?
    likewise, the scroll on the touchpad won't work neither.
    I tried to play with the hardware option but nothing came successful.
    some collegues have hogitech mice and the wheel works fine.
    Thanks in advance

    I have the same problem. The mice work fine mostly with host system regardless to operation system(XP/W7/Ubuntu), but the scroll doesn't work in vmware. I don't think it is related to virtual system because any other mouse work fine in the same virtual OS. I think Lenovo should to investigate it and change the behavior of scroll wheel because it seems to be different to other mouse. I like the feature that the scroll wheel is working in current window where the pointer is, but maybe the feature cause the problem, the scroll wheel is out of work in vmware.

  • Lenovo ThinkPad Bluetooth Laser Mouse 0A36407 battery life

    I am wondering what is the real battery life of Lenovo ThinkPad Bluetooth Laser Mouse (0A36407) ? Connected to Windows 8.1 machine. Lenovo advertises 4 to 6 months but I'd like to know the real value

    It depends on the user scenario(How many hours you will use and if you will turn off the mouse at night). Based on my experience, it is about 6 months or more.

    cant open itunes. get error message 7 followed by error message windows error 127.     i have redownloaded new updates with luck.   window xp

    For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it, which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down page in case one of them applies.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there is backup and recovery advice elsewhere in the user tip.

  • I want to update my WINDOWS 8 TO WINDOWS 8.1. But it doesn't updating. PLEASE HELP ME TO FIX THIS ERROR.

    SO HERE IT IS.
    I ALREADY READ MANY STEPS, MANY TIPS ON HOW TO FIX MY PROBLEM IN MY WINDOWS. BUT I REALLY CAN'T FIX IT. I'm not professional in terms of Computer System. But I really want to upgrade my Operating System to Windows 8.1.
    I really can't do it. 
    The window store says that I need to upgrade the pending updates for my applications but when I click install all.
    It's just pending. There's nothing happening. There's nothing installed. 
    So I go to control panel then search the windows update.
    There I click the Install Updates. I waited for 4 hours. But there's really nothing happening so I cancelled it.
    Then here is what happened after that.
    IT SAYS THAT code:80070003 windows update run into a problem then I clicked the "Get help with this error"
    Then I run the troubleshooting
    And then after that.
    the troubleshooting has completed this is what it said.
    Problems Found:
    Service registration is missing or corrupt
    Windows Update error 0x80070057 (2014-08-10-T-02_20_42P)
    Problems Installing recent updates
    So that's is.
    I don't know what to do.
    PLEASE HELP ME. :(

    Thanks, but, using the "free" version of Reader, there is no opportunity to open nor import the xml data - the menu options do not exist - there is no import listed.
    If we try to open the xml file directly, then we get an error - something to the effect of "unsupported file type, or the file is corrupted".
    I just noticed in my Pro version that there is the command File ->Form Data ->Import Data to Form... command. Is this what you are referring to?
    What do you recommend? Perhaps the easiest thing to do would be to purchase a few copies of Acrobat Pro for the reservations people to use? I was hoping that the free version of reader would do it, but perhaps not?
    Thanks again,
    Rob
