• Activation of Bluetooth via the control panel in Vista

  I have Sprint everything data incrusive service and a new blackberry phone.  I'm trying to set up as a bluetooth device to access the internet on my Vista laptop.  For some reason, I can't do "recognize" to each other.  My phone does not recognize my computer as a bluetooth device and my computer does not recognize my phone as a bluetooth (from the control panel option) device.  Can someone please tell what I am doing wrong?  What step am I missing?  Is there some sort of card, I need to make this work?

  Thanks for your help!

• Icon missing in Control Panel Accessibility Options

• Control Panel / devices and printers, click the printer, get an error message "impossible operation completed (error 0 x 00000005).» Access is denied?

  does anyone know why when I go into Control Panel / devices and printers, I click on the printer I want and you get an error message "impossible operation completed (error 0 x 00000005).» Access is denied? I can't change the owner, or delete or something. Help, please!

  So far, I found all these shapes to be completely useless and a waste of time. I found out how to fix this and it looks like that many people would have put me the answer out there because nobody else will or knows it.

  -Start

  -Explorer window

  -C:\windows\system32\spool\PRINTERS

  And

  -C:\windows\system32\spool\DRIVERS

  -Right click on a folder at a time and select Properties, then on the Security tab and add the user you want to grant access to print and check that the 'Total control' box is checked. If the user name is already there, check the box "total control".

  -Note: Never simply put the group "Everyone" it as it will cause problems if you use a vulnerability scanner.

  It was on a Windows 7 operating system.

  Who should do this; Well it worked for me at least.

  Thanks for nothing, Microsoft and all the people here! ***

• Bluetooth in blackBerry Smartphones: Blackberry - GOLD-"Bluetooth devices" in the control panel Device Manager?

  I am a beginner BB but computer user who slowly found pieces of the overall concepts of how my Blackberry is part of mail etc., servers local applications, Bluetooth, USB.  (Links to concepts of BB rather than appreciated step-by-step instructions!)

  Here is my current problem: to connect my BB to my PC via Bluetooth it seems there are two places, I can do that: either in the "Bluetooth devices" item in Control Panel - or - in Device Manager Blackberry device with the button «Set up Bluetooth» connection tab

  These two make it appear very similar windows that allow me to 'Add' a Bluetooth device, but they are clearly different applications.  What is the difference?  They are for the same purpose? Or are they totally different things such as plug in headphones to BB vs connect BB to the PC?

  (Vista Business 32 bit;) Reference Dell D630 with BT. BB 8830)

  Thank you

  For the unknown error said check this KB.  With windows Vista, disable UAC normally solves the problem.  Something to try if the KB does not is, click on the button to reset configuration (synchronization, configuration tab)

  See you soon!

• Displays the icon is missing from Control Panel

  I found an old post of 2009 here:

  http://answers.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows/Forum/windows_vista-desktop/my-display-icon-is-missing-from-my-control/c3a4d7c1-0149-4c41-BCBC-75ba11c6d99d

  I have tried both suggestions described here, but neither one restored the icon display. I was wondering if anyone has ny other suggestions on what to try.

  Hi bfogler,

  In Vista, here's a possible solution: http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/windows-vista/restore-missing-items-in-windows-vista-control-panel/.  It uses even specifically display as one of the examples to be restored.

  Good luck!

• T510 - Bitlocker is missing from Control Panel

  I just got my new T510 with Windows 7 Professional 32 bit, and I tried to use Bitlocker to encrypt the hard drive. But Bitlocker is not found in the control panel.

  Search used in the start menu and the only result is referring to manage file encryption certificates.

  I looked in the BIOS, just in case I need to activate the TPM chipset - found nothing. All my other DELL laptops in the Office were present in the Bitlocker Control Panel. Even on my old LENOVO T60P, I could allow it.

  I don't know what is happening here, what Miss me?

  I can't believe that the new T510 missing functionality. Any help apreciated...

  OK, BitLocker is in Win 7 Ultimate (and businesses).  You can use Windows Anytime Upgrade to upgrade your Pro to Ultimate--> hit-windows key + break to bring up the properties of the system, and there is a link at the bottom left of the window (I'll memory here) that allows you to perform upgrade anytime.  You do not have to reinstall your operating system or applications, or whatever it is, it happens on site once you have paid the tax.

• Mail icon is missing from Control Panel, what is the file name?

  I have Windows Vista SP1 (x 64) and for some reason any mail icon does not appear in my control panel.

  I need to create an e-mail account to connect to the Exchange Server work and Outlook requires that I have do this applet of the Control Panel Mail so that Outlook is not running.

  Error message Outlook says it cannot be done in Outlook e-mail account settings when I try to Outlook.

  To be clear, this is not for Windows Mail.

  Any ideas?

  Thank you
  -Mike

  P.S. of course all my other computers have the mail icon in the Control Panel, but not my only main :)!

  Thank you guys, I got things market! :)

  Solution:
  1. I did open default programs and set Outlook as the default e-mail program.  I don't know who really helped.

  2. I found the icon/utility view 32-bit Control Panel items in Control Panel and then clicking on which revealed (and I say revealed!) the Mail icon.

  A few Notes:
  1. I could not open the mail utility using the control mlcfg32.cpl or control method of mlcfg64.cpl.  Or the box or the command window run.
  2. in the Panel of the menu display was never showing the "Veiw 32 Bit Control Panel Items", that it was just an icon buried in the list of control panel applets.
  3. this bit 32 items in Control Panel just seems to be a small bucket of 4 Advanced Control Panel applets, they made it difficult to discover.
  4. Outlook prefers that you perform Exchange from your default account.  It wasn't the case for me, but I can easily choose the account from which to send an email when I create a new e-mail message.  I tested which and it worked.

  Everything is good the good ends, I guess, I'm running now.
