Common Problems and Solutions
1.My computer does not recognize the Bluetooth USB Adapter.
The Adapter may not be properly connected to your computer. Disconnect the Adapter and reconnect it.
2.My Bluetooth devices do not work together. Try the following:
•Make sure a profile for each device exists for the other device. This is done from the Bluetooth Setup Wizard as described in Chapter 3: Using the Bluetooth USB Adapter.
•Make sure the device is functioning and can be detected by the Adapter. If it cannot, try detecting it again from the Bluetooth Setup Wizard.
•Make sure you are using the correct PIN code for devices that require it.
3.My Bluetooth device cannot be detected by the Adapter.
Make sure the device is on and functioning properly. Properly functioning and operating Bluetooth devices should be detected by the Adapter on the Bluetooth Setup Wizard.
4.An “Error in pairing with device Linksys" message keeps appearing.
This means you are entering the wrong PIN number for a device. Verify the PIN number.
5.An “Unknown Port” message appears when using a Bluetooth Serial Port. This means the port is currently in use. Please try another port.
6.I want to unpair Bluetooth devices. How is this done?
Pairing is described in Chapter 3: Using the Bluetooth USB Adapter. To unpair two devices, open My Bluetooth Places, either from your PC’s desktop or Control Panel, then click the Entire Bluetooth Neighborhood. Any Bluetooth device with a check mark is a paired device. Right click the Bluetooth device you want to Unpair and select Unpair Device from the menu that appears.
