Bluetooth headset does not appear in the control panel

I try to use my bluetooth headset.  It is paired with success and it seems in the window bluetooth devices.  However, it will not work.  I looked in the sound control panel and the helmet does not appear.  This use to work, but stopped.  How do I add the bluetooth headset icon in the sound control panel so I can choose it as audio device by default?  I uninstalled and reinstalled the device several times.  I also have a bluetooth mouse and it works fine.  There is no other bluetooth devices.  I use Windows 7.

Thank you

Hello

I suggest you to update the driver for your Bluetooth device.

Method 1:

I suggest you go through the steps and check:

(a) Control Panel

(b) sound > manage Audio devices

(c) set by default

See also:

http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/add-a-Bluetooth-enabled-device-to-your-computer

Method 2:

Step 1:

To change the audio device by default:

(a) click the Start button

(b) type 'Change sound card settings' or ' manage audio devices'.

(c) click the link with the same name.

Step 2:

An alternative is:

(a) right click on the sound icon in the Notification area

(b) select "Playback devices"

(c) a new window called Sound, opens.

(d) in this window, you will often see the audio devices for playback, which are currently present in Windows 7.

(e) select the device you want to set as the default value and

f key) click on the default value .

(g) click on OK to save the current configuration.

NOTE: the default selected device will be used by all of your programs unless otherwise stated.

Set Default has two options: Default Communication device that manages all communications like the calls or videoconferencing on IM or VOIP, and default device that manages all the output is without the communication part.

To choose the device that should be the default value for the communication and device that should make the rest of the book,

Method 3:

(a) click on the small arrow button set as default.

(b) If you click it, the arrow will show you both options.

(c) Select the communications device.

(d) click on set as default -> default Communication device.

(e) select the device for all other types of reading and

f) click set default-> default device

(g) If you want the device of Communication by default and the default unit will be defined on the same audio device just click on the button set by default instead.

  • HP Officejet 4500 wireless printer does not appear on the control panel

    My HP Officejet 4500 wireless printer does not appear on the control panel.  How to fix it.  I have a laptop Toshiba and Windows 7 Home Premium OS.  Help, please.    rwillm

    Hey,.

    Thanks for the update, rwillm.  It seems that the installation of the printer can be a little messed up.  If the printer software is always installed, but simply lacks the printer, then I would advise to do a little cleaning before choosing to add the printer back.

    • Make sure that the printer is deleted from the file devices and printers
    • Click on one of the remaining printers folder
    • Select the properties of the print server at the top of the window
    • Click the tab drivers
    • Remove all drivers in this window for the Officejet 4500

    Also check in the Device Manager to verify that there is no mention of remaining of the 4500.

    • Click on the start menu
    • Right click on computer
    • Select manage in the list
    • Click Device Manager in the list of questions on the left side of the window that opens
    • Click the view at the top of the menu, and then select Show hidden devices
    • Remove all references to the 4500 in the list of devices

    After making sure of the device is gone, I recommend bike devices in the power circuit: router, computer and printer.

    * Make sure the printer has a valid IP address after switching back on and is connected to the same network as your PC before adding the printer.

    If the IP address and SSID are good for the printer, then try to add the printer with the printer software, you have installed.

    • Click on the Start Menu
    • Click on all programs
    • Open the HP folder
    • Open the folder for the series of the Officejet 4500 G510
    • Select Add a device option

    Let me know how it goes,

  • Bluetooth mouse does not work after the mode 'sleep'.

    My Logitech bluetooth mouse Mouse loses communication after coming out of sleep mode.  The mouse does not appear in the devices Panel and will not resync.  To retrieve it, I have to restart, and then remove the bluetooth devices control panel mouse and then add the device again.

    When installing Win7, he acknowledged the mouse without having to manually provide the drivers.  I checked the Logitech website, which doesn't have to download disponibilitepour drivers win7.

    The question is not limited to the mouse as a bluetooth speaker system has similar problems with sleep mode.

    Someone knows how to solve the problems of Eve Win7 bluetooth?

    Hello

    My iPhone 5 is a little weird lately after installing a new copy of ios 9.2.1 and I set up like new. Bluetooth icon sometimes does not appear on the status bar even if she was turned on.

    Here is my screenshot

    The application of settings

    Thanks in advance.

    I think it's one of those things. 1 you are not connected to anything with blue tooth here for you aren't really "use it" 2. Its a software problem and maybe if you take it to the apple store that they would turn you off and back on to reset it or you say to wait for the next update, if you want to save gas or if you ride or walk save energy if you the person who has a power car electric you can write a quick review with the Apple and say hey guys do a new update , I really need a heres my problem.

    I've just upgraded in Windows 8 and my bluetooth headset does not connect (worked well on Windows 7), he could be detected with the mating, but always appear "offline" after having been matched, both headphones are having the same problem, while mice bluetooh work well, is there whatever it might be do?

    I solved the problem.  I upgraded my Lenovo E530 to Windows 8 and the helmet worked.

    I made a copy of the Broadcom Bluetooth 4.0 driver and installed on my HP LPTOP.

  • ImageBrowser does not appear in the menu AutoPlay Windows8

    I use EX ImageBrowser (currently at 1.4.0.5 level) on my computer of Windows8.  After a few initial setting issued (SilverLight, etc.) last may he worked satifactorily - except that it does not appear in the menu Windows Autorun for camera memory cards.

    I have attempted to remedy this by going to Windows Control Panel - AutoPlay - memory cards to select this option, but it seems here either - so I can't make my choice.

    Any suggestions on how I can fix this because it is much easier to download my images if ImageBrowser appears puts whenever I insert a memry card?

    Yes, the level of ImageBrowser EX I serve since January (1.4.0.5) is the last level by Canon Support.

    But I decided to uninstall/reinstall anyway.

    After uninstalling/reinstalling I found myself with the same level - 1.4.0.5 - but the AutoPlay has been fixed.

    So I assume that there was a problem originally ImageBrowser EX (1.2.1.13), I installed way back in may 2013. which has carried through the 1.4.0.5 3 updates version that I used until today.

    If a full/new installation is sometimes very interesting!

  • KB2728973 does not appear in the list, add / remove programs

    Hi, I am using Windows XP Media Center Edition with service pack 3 is installed, and KB2728973 is displayed as being installed on the Microsoft update site, but KB2728973 does not appear in the list, add / remove programs. The rest of July for Windows XP updates appear as being installed on the two site update of Microsoft and adding list / remove programs, it seems strange that KB2728973 does not work. It is important that KB2728973 does not appear in the list of add / remove programs? or do I need to do more to install it? I also tried to manually install the KB2728973, but again, he did not appear in the list Add / Remove programs. I understand that there is a position similar to mine, but I read it, and I realized that the question of the poster was a bit different from mine. I also wanted to take the time to mention that the automatic updates of Windows listed KB2728973 as being installed successfully, but it always seems strange that KB2728973 does not appear in the list, add / remove programs. I also checked in C:\WINDOWS, and there wasn't any folder $NtUninstall to KB2728973. Oh, and Yes, I have "Show updates" checked in Add / Remove programs.   Contribution to this issue would be greatly appreciated.

    It is normal that some updates to not appear in the list of add / remove programs in the control panel for various reasons, but in this case, it will update the entries in the untrusted certificates store then to see if it is installed, you can check if the newly revoked certificates are listed.

    Here is a link to a page that explains the changes he brings (the certificates that have been revoked):

    [url] http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/security/advisory/2728973 [url]

    Scroll down to the section that has the right:

    How can [B] after you apply the update, I check the certificates in the Microsoft Untrusted Certificates Store? [/ B]

    If you have no events in Event Viewer, you can open IE and click on Internet Options - Content tab - then in the Middle under "Certificates" click on "Certificates" and then click on the arrow to scroll to the right and click the "Untrusted publishers" tab.  You should see all those listed in the MS article here.

    It also creates this key in the registry:

    HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software \Microsoft\Active Setup\Installed Windows\ {C3C986D6-06B1-43BF-90DD-BE30756C00DE}

    where it lists what Windows Update of roots revoked.
