  Hi thaw thaw,

  Please use the Forum of the community for Vista.

  You sure have a bluetooth connection built into your laptop?

  You can try this, type bluetooth in the search bar above the ORB start. If the bluetooth file transfer shortcut appears, press on enter to launch it.

  I hope this helps.

• Where can I find the bluetooth device on control panel of Windows XP?

  I have a wireless printer not communicating with computer.  The directions said to go to the control panel and click on the bluetooth device, but I do not see a device on the control panel. Where can I find the bluetooth device?

  One of reasons behind the first two questions of Vinod, is that not all computers have a Bluetooth built-in support.  Most modern laptops don't, but many computers to office, including the new ones, are not.

  Do you know if your computer has Bluetooth support? If you don't know, what is the brand and model of your computer?

  If you have a laptop computer, is turned on Bluetooth?  Many laptops have a (often Fn + F5) switch that turns radios (Bluetooth or wifi) on and outside.  Check with your computer user Guide.

  Please answer 4th issue of Vinod as well (brand & model printer).
