Satellite C50 - can't activate Bluetooth!

I just bought a laptop Satellite C50 64-bit with windows pre-installed 8.1.
According to the specifications of the product, it has integrated bluetooth (using the Qualcomm Atheros AR956x Wireless Network Adapter?) But I can't find a way to activate. I've been in PC configuration-> PC and peripherals, but bluetooth is not listed there.

However, in flight Mode I have seen bluetooth with a slide on/off switch button but it is grayed out so I can't activate it. What can I do now? Help, please. I'm desperate. Would be very grateful for any * I can follow simple instructions - I'm not a geek!

Thank you.

Before you begin to discuss your problem can you please post the exact model name or the full model number so that we can check the specifications for your model of laptop.

  • Satellite A210 can't find Bluetooth

    I am the owner of a Toshiba Satellite A210 - 11K and I remember having an internal bluetooth listed as one of its specifications when I went to buy.
    I can't find Bluetooth ACPI from Toshiba-> system devices-->--> Control Panel Device Manager.

    This necessarily mean that I don't have a bluetooth adapter that is installed in my laptop?
    I have Windows Vista installed and I have 2 options in my program Toshiba Assist, Bluetooth and Bluetooth Local Com settings but when I click on Bluetooth settings, it tries to install then says "Please connect the bluetooth device" and does not complete the installation.

    Any help would be appreciated!

    You are right. If the system does not detect the device "Bluetooth ACPI", no Bluetooth module is connected to the system.

    Satellite L550 (PSLN8A-00Y008)

    On many models of Toshiba WLAN switch is no longer available and WIFI/BT will be enabled/disabled with function keys (FN keys). To work, you must install added Toshiba Value Package and Toshiba Flash Cards Support utility.

    You have two of them? Check please if Toshiba flash cards are listed in the startup (run > msconfig > startup).
    By the way: you can use the keys FN + Fx?

    To activate BT in Win 8.1 settings press the Windows key + C to open the bar of charm.

    Click settings, and then select mobile PC settings. Then go to the PC section and devices.

  • 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 U400-138: how to activate Bluetooth in Ubuntu device

    I have a new Toshiba Satellite U400-138.
    This is the version of Centrino with Intel GMA4500HD graphics card and Intel 5100 a/g/n wireless.

    If I understand correctly, the Bluetooth adapter is * turned off by default * and a special * command ACPI * is required to activate it. I use the linux 2.6.27rc8 kernel and it has two drivers - * toshiba and toshiba_acpi *. These cannot be inserted into the 'No Such Device' kernel.

    The reason is probably that these drivers only work with the Toshiba BIOS. This model has a Phoenix BIOS.

    So, how can I activate the Bluetooth market adapter and stop on this model?

    Hey Buddy

    Unfortunately, Linux is not supported before you wait days here I recommend you to enjoy some Ubuntu forum and ask I think that, in the meantime, we solve problems WLAN but BT. It can be further complicated theme.

    Good luck and post your new activity. It may be interesting for other fans of Linux.
