Bluetooth Driver for nokia n900
 

do you know where can i download the bluetooth driver? so i can transfer files on my n900 via bluetooth to my PC or Mac. Because i'm still getting an error message "Connection failed to (name of my PC)" whenever i would like to transfer pictures from my n900 to my Pc and mac(my n900 could detect my Pc and Mac, its just that i get that error message). I can receive any files from my PC or Mac to my n900 though via bluetooth perfectly.

If you can detect other BT devices, you already have the driver installed and loaded into the kernel.

Being able to send to the N900 from your PC but not from your N900 to your PC sounds like a problem with settings in your PC.

On my Mac, i can browse thru my n900(n900 home/mydocuments only not including micro sd, from there i can drag the file and save it to my desktop) via bluetooth but i can't receive files from my n900 to my mac via straight bluetooth(not browsing thru my n900). Already checked bluetooth sharing and still "Connection Error" appearing.

On my Windows 7 PC, same as Mac I keep getting "Connection Failed" when i'm sending files from my n900 to my pc. i've already checked the settings for receiving the files and yet i'm still getting the error message.

SOLVED: Bluetooth peripheral device driver solution - Windows 7

Bluetooth Driver for nokia n900‎
N900 Bluetooth Problem‎
Win 7 drivers for Bluetooth‎



1) install the bluetooth device driver such as the one that comes specific to your PC..,
(note: vista & win7 has default bluetooth driver, so every thing may work fine but install the specific one)



2) Download the 'Windows Mobile Device Center' ( current version is 6.1 ) which you can download it from http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobi...-download.mspx
this works for both Vista and Windows 7.
Install the downloaded software but it may not look like it worked on Windows 7 PCs. Vista automatically configured the settings on the bluetooth devices but for those who have Windows 7, here are the things you should do



3) Go to 'Device Manager' from 'Control Panel' -Or- just right-click on Computer Icon and choose 'Properties' and then click on 'Device Manager'.

- You'll see an 'Unknown Device' named 'Bluetooth Peripheral Device'

- Right-Click it and click on "Update Driver Software" -Or- anyway you find it easy to bring up the Update driver window.

- Click "Browse My Computer for Driver Software" button.

- Click "Let Me Pick from a List of Device Drivers on my computer".

- Select 'Bluetooth Radio' from the list if it asked you to select and then in the next window, it will show a list of drivers with Company Names in one list and Drivers in another. In the Company List choose 'Microsoft Corporation', not Microsoft.

- From the drivers list there may be one or more drivers with the name "Windows Mobile-Based Device Support" with different driver versions. Select one or the latest.

- Ignore any warnings and keep pressing next and then Finish at last. If all goes well, the last screen will show the message that device driver is successfully installed.

Now, after manually updating the driver for your bluetooth device, in 'Device Manager' when you click on 'Bluetooth Radios', it should display one more item which will say 'Windows Mobile-based device support'.


that's it you are done
