Anyone know how to get bluetooth working in 10 ?

 

There are no apparent Help files to read.

 

Going to the Bluetooth setting would not allow me to add a device.

 

Installed CSR program, and it does not even appear.

 

10 is pretty useless if I can't use my headphones.

 

Thanks.

OMG -- you should be slapped silly & kicked in the rear end !

 

It wasn't Windows 10, at all.

 

Resolved:

 

I left my bluetooth dongle in the old desktop.

 

I was plugging in a keyboard dongle all this time. :pinch: :blush: :rolleyes:

 

No wonder I was not getting Bluetooth.

 

I updated to all the latest motherboard drivers for Windows 8.x too -- so maybe that helped.

 

Installed CSR Harmony drivers.

 

Plugged in the dongle to my new desktop.

 

After a few seconds my Windows 10 lit up and Bluetooth was enabled.

 

Headphones paired up and now I am a'rockin'. :cool:

 

Nothing I can't solve ....

So it was PEBKAC then? My friend, if you can fix that, let me know how you did it. I've been trying for years, and nothing.

I have a CSR Harmony usb bluetooth I use for my logitech wireless keyboard.  When I first upgraded to Win 10 it would not work and there were no new drivers available.  I got it working by: 
1) using the CSR software disk to uninstall the software. 
2) Rebooted and reinstalled the CSR software. 

All seems to be working fine now )

    • I can name 10x that on why not to switch.... It's funny outlook/office are going towards web app wrappers, and then MS is now preaching native apps again.... ugh can we just pick a lane and stay in it
    • Absolutely NOBODY has suggested such a conclusion. I am affirming the sober reality check that AV2's overall market adoption will take longer than AV1's adoption rate -- which, by the way, is the whole point of the article! While PCI-SIG is productive (on paper), other WGs have created all sorts of confusing progress plans that consumers have tuned-out of their improvements... HTML/W3C, USB, HDMI, BT, WIFI (ieee802.11) as a few other groups where spec naming conventions, split progress paths, overlapping ambitions... I'm not critiquing the AV specs group; I'm simply affirming that adoption for AV2 faces headwinds beyond the macroeconomics of it all.
