I just got a Belkin F8T003 v2.11 Bluetooth adapter but when putting it in the mini i dont get the Bluetooth icon in system settings at first. Then after a while I suddenly get it there and hen i click it it opens the settings window but the icon dissapear again. I can't make any settings because it doesn't fint a bluetoothe device. I have it in one of the USB ports in the back of the mini but has tested all of them and the same result. Any ideas?

Possibly a bad adapter or a bad connection?

Yes a bad adapter it was.

Got a new one today and it worked like a charm.

lol, ive had my belkin bluetooth from my old pc sat on my desk for about 3 weeks, didnt realise it would work with my mac until i saw this thread. blush.gif

plugged it in, automatically detected, all working awesome with my samsung d500.

sooo much easier than windows, make me realise even more that im glad ive "switched" to mac. it must have took me at least 45mins to set up on my pc with all the ms bluetooth stack problems etc with sp2.

just need my elgato eyetv wonder to come into stock tomorrow and the pc can finally go on ebay/neobay.
