Bluetooth When i turn bluetooth on to connect with any phone i look for devices but everytime it comes up with no devices found its like my bluetooth does not work at all.

Connecting your Bluetooth wireless phone with your laptop is called pairing, and I'll use a Blackberry Curve to show you how it works. I'm assuming your laptop comes with a built-in Bluetooth adapter (or you can also get a Bluetooth adapter that plugs into one of your USB ports).
First make sure that Bluetooth is enabled on your phone. For Blackberry phones, that means selecting the "Set Up Bluetooth" application from the main screen, and then selecting "Enable Bluetooth" after clicking the menu button.
Next, set up your computer to allow Bluetooth connections. If your computer comes with Bluetooth, then you'll see a Bluetooth icon in your Control Panel (Start button -> Control Panel from Vista):
Double-click the Bluetooth icon and you'll see a Bluetooth Devices dialog. Click the Options tab and make sure the options to "Allow Bluetooth devices to find this computer" and "Allow Bluetooth devices to connect to this computer" are both checked
Next, click the Devices tab and then click the "Add" button. This will open the Add Bluetooth Device Wizard, and after verifying that your device is set up and ready to be found (ie. Bluetooth has been enabled on your wireless phone) it will try to find your phone.
Select the Bluetooth device and click Next to set up a passkey, which is a number that associates your computer with a Bluetooth enabled device. For security reasons, most Bluetooth enabled devices (with some exceptions, such as mice) require you to use a passkey. Using a passkey helps ensure that your computer is connecting to the device that you intended and not someone else's device that is nearby.
You can choose your own passkey or let Windows choose one for you. Click Next and then pick up your phone, which will prompt you to enter in the passkey. After entering the passkey in your phone, Windows will finish the pairing process and your phone will be connected via Bluetooth.

Hi, In some states, hands free driving is the law. In order to avoid a ticket you need to talk on your cell phone with a bluetooth headset or speaker or with a headset that attaches directly into the phone. Bluetooth headsets are popular for this and other reasons but connecting it to your phone can be confusing. Here are some steps to help you connect your bluetooth device to your cell phone.

Instructions

Things You'll Need:

* Bluetooth headset
* Bluetooth capable cell phone



Read the owners manual for your bluetooth device. You will need to find the code to pair your headset to your phone. This code is usually 0000 (those are zeroes) but verify before you proceed.


Enter your bluetooth option on your cell phone. These can be found in your menu under "bluetooth," "connections," "settings," or something similar.


Turn on your bluetooth headset and put it in pairing mode. Pairing mode means the bluetooth is ready to be found by your cell phone. To pair your headset, follow the owners manual for your specific bluetooth model.



Select "add device" or "search for new device" from your cell phone. Your cell phone will then search for your bluetooth. Once it is found, or discovered, you will need to enter the pairing code (most likely 0000, check your manual to verify).


Select "connect" to finalize the connection if the bluetooth headset didn't connect automatically after the pairing code was entered. Make a test call with your bluetooth in your ear to ensure it is connected properly.

Hi, To set up Bluetooth on your phone

1. Go to Menu, select Connect or Connections or Connectivity:

Note! If the above steps do not work, please consult the user manual.

2. Bluetooth - Select On to enable Bluetooth.

3. My telephone's visibility - Select Shown to all if you want your device to be found by other Bluetooth devices. If you

select Hidden, your device cannot be found by other devices.

4. My Bluetooth name - Define a name for your device. After you have activated your Bluetooth service and changed

My phone's visibility to Shown to all, your phone and this name can be seen by other Bluetooth device users.

Sending data via Bluetooth

If your phone supports the Bluetooth 1.1 specification or earlier, you can only have one Bluetooth connection running

on your phone at any one time.

1. Select or open the file you wish to send. For example, to send a photo to another device, open the Gallery

application.

2. Select the file you wish to send, then select Options > Send > via Bluetooth.

3. The phone starts to search for devices within range.

Devices using Bluetooth technology that are within range will appear on the display. You should see a device icon,

the device's name, the device type, or a short name. (A paired device is one where a Bluetooth connection already

exists between your phone and the other device.)

• To interrupt the search, press Stop. The device list freezes and you can start to form a connection to one of the

devices already found.

If you have searched for devices earlier, a list of the devices that were found previously is shown first. To start a new

search, select More devices. If you switch off the phone, the list of devices is cleared and the device search needs to

be started again before sending data.

4. Scroll to the device you want to connect with and press Select. The item you are sending is copied to Outbox and

the note Connecting is shown.

5. Pairing (if this is not required by the other device, proceed to step 6.)

• If the other device requires pairing before data can be transmitted, a tone sounds and you are asked to enter a

passcode. • Create your own passcode (1-16 characters long, numeric) and agree with the owner of the other device

to use the same code. This passcode is used only once and you do not have to memorise it. • After pairing, the

device is saved to the Paired devices view.

6. When the connection has been successfully established, the note Sending data is shown. Data received via

Bluetooth can be found in the Inbox folder in Messaging. Tip: Pairing is a means of authentication. The users of the

devices using Bluetooth technology should agree together what the passcode is, and use the same passcode for

both devices in order to pair them. Devices that do not have a user interface have a preset passcode.

Checking the status of the Bluetooth connection

• When the Bluetooth icon is shown in standby mode, Bluetooth is active.

• When the Bluetooth icon is blinking, your phone is trying to connect to the other device. • When the Bluetooth icon is

shown continuously, the Bluetooth connection is active.

Receiving data via Bluetooth

When you receive data via Bluetooth, a message alert tone is played and you are asked if you want to accept the

message. If you accept, the item is placed in the Inbox folder in Messaging.

Disconnecting Bluetooth

A Bluetooth connection is disconnected automatically after sending or receiving data.

Not sure if you have paired your bluetooth with your phone yet. Hold your bluetooth button down untell it flashes (usualy blue and red) continuously your phone should then find your bluetooth then it will ask for a code. Usualy the code is 0000. If not make sure your bluetooth is turned on:)

From the Menu screen, select Settings. Scroll across to the Connectivity tab and select Bluetooth. Select Turn On. To connect your Sony Ericsson K800i to a handsfree device, enter the Bluetooth menu screen and select Handsfree. Your phone will then look for a handsfree device to connect to. Press and hold the 'call' (big) button on your bluetooth device. First it will blinks once, keep holding, then it will turn to steady blue. This is the 'pairing' status. When the phone found your device, select the device and enter the passcode (usualy 0000 (4 times zero))if required. The steady blue light on the device should go off and blinks every couple of seconds. Next time you switch on the bluetooth device it will be automaticaly recognized by the phone.
