What should I do if other Bluetooth devices cannot find my computer?
❑
Make sure both devices have the Bluetooth function enabled.
❑
Make sure the
WIRELESS
switch is on and the
WIRELESS
indicator light is lit on your computer.
❑
You cannot use the Bluetooth function while your computer is in a power saving mode. Bring the computer back to Normal
mode, then turn on the
WIRELESS
switch.
❑
Your computer and the device may be too far apart. Wireless Bluetooth technology works best when the devices are within
10 meters of each other.
What should I do if I cannot find the Bluetooth device I want to communicate with?
❑
Check that the Bluetooth function of the device you want to communicate with is on. See the other device's manual for
more information.
❑
If the device you want to communicate with is already communicating with another Bluetooth device, it may not be found
or it may not be able to communicate with your computer.
❑
To allow other Bluetooth devices to communicate with your computer, follow these steps:
1
Right-click the Bluetooth icon on the taskbar and select the option for the Bluetooth settings from the list.
2
Click the
Options
tab and select the
Allow Bluetooth devices to find this computer
check box.
✍
The
Options
tab may not appear in the window depending on the model.
