Sometimes on laptops there is a access panel on the bottom of the laptop that when you take them off will show slots for inserting additional ram, wireless network, modem and bluetooth modules. If you can look and see you may find that your laptop has the capability for bluetooth, but may need a card installed. If your laptop does not then you could always buy a usb bluetooth like the one here: http://www.cellularfactory.com/laptop/ACER/4/31883/518537/
Thanks, Matt

How to pair bluetooth device

First, make sure Bluetooth is enabled on your Lenovo. Right-click on the wireless connection icon in the Windows system tray. The icon is usually a wedge-shaped icon showing signal strength bars. The icon is usually located at the bottom right corner of the taskbar at the bottom of your screen. So, right click on that icon and select Open Network and Sharing Center. In the new window locate and click on Change adapter settings on the left-hand menu. In the new box that opens search among the tabs for information to confirm Bluetooth is "enabled".
Next, according to Sony's help guide try the following:
Unable to connect the speaker to a BLUETOOTH device with One-touch connection (NFC)
Keep the smartphone close to the speaker until the smartphone reacts. If you fail to connect, move the smartphone
slowly on the N-Mark of the speaker.
Check that the NFC function of the smartphone is set to on.
If the smartphone is in a case, remove it.
NFC reception sensitivity varies, depending on the device. If you repeatedly fail to connect the speaker with a
smartphone by one touch, connect it to the speaker by on-screen operation.
Check that your smartphone is compatible with NFC. Look up information on the issue on the customer support
website.

Bluetooth paired but not connected?

There are several kinds of Bluetooth Profiles. If you're only looking to send and receive phone phone calls, A Bluetooth headset only needs a Hands Free Profile or HFP.

The EM227 cannot be used as a stereo headset because a different Bluetooth Profile is required. If this is what you're intending to use it for, You may want to invest in Bluetooth enable Studio Headphones.

Try these steps to Troubleshoot the issue:

1. Make sure that your EM227 has been fully charged. the User Guide suggests that you charge the Headset for at least 5 hours before you use it for the 1st time.

2. Go to your device's Bluetooth Settings and scan for nearby devices.

3. Turn ON your EM227 Bluetooth Headset and place it in pairing mode. The Bluetooth indicator light will flash RED and BLUE.

Don't Forget to keep your Bluetooth Headset and your device within 3 feet of each other.

4. If your device asks for a Pass Code, try entering "0000" ( Four Zeroes)

Once you've paired the device, the LED indicator should now blink as a steady Blue light. Try making a test call.

Remember, The EM227 was only designed for Hands free calling ONLY.

Hello...i am using sony ericsson k550 i had a trouble in that i cant send any files through bluetooth my bluetooth is not working pls any one tell how to solve this prob

Make sure your phone and the other Bluetooth device are charged, switched on and within range of each other. Make sure Bluetooth wireless technology is turned on, and that the devices are set to be visible for other Bluetooth devices. Check that the two devices are paired, and have found each other. If there are still problems, you'll have to reset the connection and pair the two devices again.

In some Bluetooth installations, you must activate a COM port manually in your computer. This is done differently for different brands and models of Bluetooth devices. Please see the manufacturer's product documentation.

If a COM port is not activated

1. In many cases, you can right-click on your phone icon in the window where all found Bluetooth devices are shown, and select a 'COM port activation' item in the menu. Make a note of the COM port number of the activated port.
2. Open Sony Ericsson PC Suite and click Tools/Phone Monitor Options.../Com Ports. Enable the COM port you activated in step 1.
3. Keep the Bluetooth wireless technology turned on in your phone, restart the computer and try to connect again.
