OVI Suite can't find a bluetooth device in my Notebook!

hai,

i bought a new laptop a couple of weeks ago .. (HP Pavilion dv6-3177ee)

it comes with bluetooth version 3.

i installed ovi suite and pc suite .. but when i try to connect my phone via bluetooth , it gives me the next massege :

"Bluetooth is turned off or unavailable on your computer . Turn on Bluetooth or or refer to help ..."

I checked the bluetooth .. and it's ON .. I tryed to send a file via blutooth to my phone and it's sent.

the blutooth device name is :

Ralink/Motorola BC4 Bluetooth 3.0 + HS Adapter

and I have the latest driver for it...

 

can anyone help please...

 

here are my data :

 

PC Connectivity Solution:

 

Version 10.43.0.0

 

Nokia Connectivity Cable Driver:

Version 7.1.36.0

 

Operating system:

Microsoft Windows 7 64-bit Edition

==========================

I've contacted with HP customer service .. they said as long as I can send and recieve files via my bluetooth .. then it's a (Nokia PC Suite)'s problem!!!

Re: OVI Suite can't find a bluetooth device in my Notebook!

Some problem here, too!

 

I have a HP Probook laptop with Ralink Motorola BC4 Bluetooth 3.0+HS Adapter. Operating system is Windows 7 Professional 64 bit.

 

I am able to transfer files to my Nokia C5 using Computer/My Bluetooth, but Ovi Suite does not recognize the Bluetooth connection. Installing a generic Microsoft Bluetooth stack makes Ovi Suite to recognize Bluetooth connection, but I am not able to pair the phone with computer with that.

 

Waiting for Nokia's reply!

Re: OVI Suite can't find a bluetooth device in my Notebook!

this is the answer to your issue....

 

the problem is not the Nokia PC Suite.... it is HP that is to blame for adding such slopy hardware that is built not to be usable by other external software.. i have a HP Probook 4530s and it uses the same but newer version, bluetooth hardware Realtek Motorola BC8 Bluetooth 3.0+HS Adapter that has to use motorola software...this motorola software is able to connect to my phone via bluetooth and acts like a built-in nokia pc suite / Windows bluetooth driver... not allowing the actual nokia pc suite access to the bluetooth hardware... in short nokia pc suite is Incompatibile with Ralink / Realtek Motorola BC4 / BC8 Bluetooth 3.0+HS Adapter... so if you have this problem ask HP to come up with new software that works on the motorola hardware that is compatible with nokia PC suite... this is the problem with products that have parts built by other companies.. (Incompatibility

 

thats why i like Apple and nokia they dont out source other brands to make parts... but recently nokia ran to microsoft for the lumia windows cause there symbian software was loseing against ios and android..
