Hi , I have lenovo y500 laptop it is not detecting the blue tooth device

Restart the laptop and check the bios. Make sure that Bluetooth is enabled.
For Fn-F5 to power on and off the wireless connections on a ThinkPad, you need the Lenovo Power Management Driver installed.

Just a couple of things to check.

DRIVER UPDATE

If your laptop blue-tooth switch is enabled, then you need a second device with blue-tooth like a phone or laptop in range. Make sure the devices' blue-tooth adapter is switched on.

Your audio device is likely DSP based, and not actual hardware. You should be able to find the driver at lenovo.com. Once installed, then your audio device(s) should be detected and ready to use.

hi! just a tip probably there is a problem on the power board, just a suggestion if your still on warranty might as well call lenovo tech support so that they could replace the defective part. hopr this helps! goodluck!

I am also using lenovo Y500 laptop, and guess what i got my cd drive replaced more than 30 times now. there is no problem in your computer, the problem is only with the drive. they also do not provide any firmware to update it. there is no filters problem. the problem is mechanical which is something you cant fix. these are chinese made drives, just use and throw. so, its now time to throw. there is no point banging your head, becasue i already banged a lot for this issue, and please dont replace your drive with sony optirac, it will also give you the same problem. all the best.

buy a bluetooth device and use as simple new hardware  to connectt ur b.tooth enabled my mobile

if you install xp then find out the xp drivers in www.lenovo.com > select country > support and downloads > model number> etc. After downloading file >install the driver > after installation reboot your computer > after machin on you just switch on the wifi or bluetooth switch (near you laptop hinzes) and try it.

Here you go...
