How to activate bluetooth on Dell Latitude e6420

How to activate bluetooth on Dell Latitude e6420

After studying this Bluetooth issue, I learned that Dell don't have not necessarily installed the Bluetooth module on all laptops E6420. I don't see the option on the profile for the online version (hard to believe that they do not have default Bluetooth).

I got the material via ebay and installed it (not plug-and-play or hardware challenged, but possible if you are willing to disassemble your laptop). Subsequently, the Bluetooth then worked as it should. Yet once, why not Dell make this standard Bluetooth rather than trying to save a couple of cents and cause a headache for users?

  • How to activate Bluetooth adapter Dell Latitude D620?

    I tried unsuccessfully for weeks how to activate the Bluetooth adapter (switch on Bluetooth radio) on my Dell Latitude D620.

    First the Latitude D620 built in Bluetooth adapter? I did a search on the web, and it seems that it does. Also, I see a Bluetooth symbol just above my keyboard, but it is not lighted. How do I turn it on?

    I went to control panel, device-> maps network manager, but I do not see the Bluetooth devices listed there.

    I need to install a software? I went on the support.dell.com site and downloaded the Dell Wireless 350 Bluetooth internal Module driver installation program. But when I install it, it is trying to install the Vista profile Pack, and it fails because it 'impossible to find compatible bluetooth on your system chip' and 'DFU installation failed with returncode 137 ".

    Really hope someone can help me. Thank you.

    If still looking for the answer, that I just found out myself...

    The BIOS, under the Wireless heading, is where you put the Bluetooth radio on and outside. At least on the Latitude D620 D630.

    The big surprise is that you (apparently) can enable it in the BIOS, even if there is NO INSTALLATION of CARD BLUETOOTH!

    The cardspace bluetooth is on the far left under the bezel above the keyboard. pop up the extreme right and carefully lift the bezel to see if you have the card installed.

    It was an option, not the equipment standard.

    Your variant of the system doesn't have the Dell Wireless 380 card and that's why it will fail to install.

    Dilip,

    It would take a special function key to turn on the Bluetooth on the computer. You can consult the computer manual or contact Dell for the same thing.

    I don't have a Bluetooth network with windows 7 model p6214y connection. How to activate Bluetooth so I can connect my phone Nokia 5130 c-2?

    Original title: Bluetooth

    If your computer did not come with Bluetooth radio at all (common for budget computers), there is no way that you can download the software to activate Bluetooth as the signal must be sent by the radio. check the list of items on your receipt.

    You can get a USB Bluetooth stick to connect a Bluetooth car radio to your computer. You can or may not need to install additional software, depending on whether or not the manufacturer choose to support generic Microsoft driver.

  • Audio problem with Dell Latitude E6420 and Windows 8.1

    Hello community,

    I installed Windows 8.1 on my Latitude E6420 and I can get the sound to work. I installed the drivers available for Windows 8, but he doesn't play any sounds. The only thing that works continuously via a browser (e.g. youtube). When I test the device "speakers / headphones ' this is for me a"Failed to play test sound."but the"helmet of communication"device works without any problem.

    I can not activate the device "speakers / headphones" because it blocks other applications (Lync 2013) so I have to keep this option disabled.

    I look on the web for similar problems and it all points to the drivers for the video card (!)

    Is there a version of driver for this model? Or I can not use the latest version of the software in this model?

    Hello. See here for a list of Dell of the models that work with 8 and 8.1. Dell recommends not installing 8.1 on the Latitude E6420 model. Dell said 8 is correct but does not provide an audio driver IDT even for 8. I don't think that there will be provided by any Dell IDT audio driver for 8.1 since it is not recommended to install. This means that you must use the native audio driver supplied with Windows. The native driver is generic and you can usually get audio to work when using it but not all functions are working properly. All I can suggest is to find the generic audio driver in Device Manager (I don't know how it is in the list) and try to 'update' by allowing Windows to search for an update on the internet.

    Maybe someone at our Windows 8 jury can suggest an audio driver IDT, you can try to use. If you post here tell them that you already posted on the Audio card to the laptop so that they will not move your message here.

  • How to activate bluetooth on Satellite Pro C850?

    Hello

    I'm having trouble if/how understanding I can activate Bluetooth on my Satellite C850D-12V (PSCC2E - 03300JEN). The operating system is Windows 8-64 bit.

    The technique of the product (http://www.toshiba.co.uk/discontinued-products/satellite-c850d-12v/) does not BT then, first of all, I would appreciate advice on how to check whether my laptop is equipped with BT

    If my laptop has the necessary equipment, should it be activated via the download of a driver (e.g. Realtek Bluetooth Filter Driver Package, version 12.24.0802.2012)?

    If my laptop is not equipped BT, this can be solved with a BT USB adapter? What would the specification required for a USB BT dongle? Do I still need to download a driver?

    I apologize for the issues. Despite my attempts to research answers to myself, I'm from very limited in this area.

    Any advice greatly appreciated.

    Thank you very much

    Hi Dino

    Your machine according to the specifications of the laptop has no BT module so you have to use the external device. Best solution is BT USB dongle. Visit the nearest PC store and there you can choose one that fits. Talk to your local dealer and I m sure they can help you make the right decision.

    Usually, when you buy external device driver is included for installation should be pretty easy and user-friendly.

    And please do not apologize for your basic questions. ;) If you have any other questions you are welcome.

  • Satellite L300 PSLBGE XP - How to activate Bluetooth without using FN + F8

    Hello!

    I just install WinXp on a satellite L300 PSLBGE by Toshiba... and the FN key does not work. At the moment I have to activate bluetooth... but FN + F8 does not work. What can I do? I installed Hotkey, save energy and controls (1.0.0.8)... FN does not work and the Bluetooth is not activated.

    I tried all the possible stack driver bluetooth... the answer is 'bluetooth is not ready' or 'connect the bluetooth device' (I have the Italian version... perhaps that the translation is not perfect...). Is there a work around to activate the bluetooth? Thank you!

    Hello

    I already said how to get the FN keys work in Win XP.
    Check this thread:
    http://forums.computers.Toshiba-Europe.com/forums/thread.jspa?MessageID=142403&

    As I said you need to install the common Module of the Toshiba page European and FN buttons won't work!
    In addition, you need to install battery Toshiba BT to get the BT working on your laptop.

    But; Are you sure that books supports BT 100%? What L300-xxx is this?

  • How to activate Bluetooth on Satellite P200

    Hello

    I bought a new computer Toshiba Satellite P200 - 1C7 and I do not see where I can activate bluetooth.
    I installed bluetooth monitor and download bluetooth stack.

    On the Web from Toshiba site, explained that we need to check the presence of bluetooth inside by the letter B after the number of PCs under him, but I can read BT HD L M W so I think bluetooth is in the computer.

    So can you tell me if it is or not the case and if it is Yes, how to enable it.

    Thank you very much for your answer.

    Hi Emilie

    Firstly you can activate and use the only if BT it s is available on your laptop.

    Therefore, you should check if your laptop is equipped with the BT module.

    If the BT module has been installed, then you should find a BT tag at the bottom of the unit.

    I guess that you will not find this label because your device was not equipped with internal BT module.

    See you soon

  • How to activate bluetooth on Satellite P200 Manager - 1C7

    I installed a bluetooth dongle on my Toshiba Satellite P200 - 7 1 so I downloaded the bluetooth Manager and battery bluetooth.
    Or when I tried to use the bluetooth Manager, he says there's 25-day trial.

    So I wanted to know how to activate the bluetooth Manager?
    If it is not possible, can someone tell me what software can I use (bluesoleil doesn't).

    Thank you very much for your answer.

    Hello

    Toshiba Bluetooth stack on the Toshiba site is customized and designed for Toshiba laptops.
    You must use the battery Bluetooth that is customized for your laptop. Then you should not activate any BT

    But look, man. your Satellite P200 - 1C7 seems to be NOT equipped with internal BT module from Toshiba!
    That's why you should switch to another external solution.
