What should I do if I do not hear sound from my headphones or audio/video controller?

Check whether your headphones or audio/video controller supports the SCMS-T content protection. If not, you need to

change the SCMS-T settings to connect the device using the Advanced Audio Distribution Profile (A2DP). To change the

SCMS-T settings, follow these steps:

✍

Some VAIO models detect support of the SCMS-T content protecti on on a destination device for automatic reconfigurati on of the SCMS-T settings. On

such models, SCMS-T Settings in step 3 is not displayed because there is no need to manually chan ge the settings.

1Click Start and Devices and Printers.

2Right-click the icon for the device that you want to connect using the A2DP and select Control.

3Click SCMS-T Settings.

4Click No when the Connect to a device only if it supports SCMS-T content protection message appears.

What should I do if the Bluetooth icon is not displayed on the taskbar?

❑To display the Bluetooth icon on the taskbar, follow these steps:

1Click Start and Devices and Printers.

2Right-click the Bluetooth device icon and click Bluetooth settings.
