    Bluetooth keyboard not found or not working?


    This is my problem:

    I run windows 7 home 64 bit.
    I have bought a 3.0 bluetooth keyboard. it says: works with apple windows. Next I bought a bluetooth radiodevice (that tiny usb 2.0-thing)

    I plugged in the usb-BT-device. Automatically windows started installing the drivers. successful. and it flashes a light every now and then.

    I put in new batteries in the keyboard. pressed the connect button 5 seconds. The keyboard is flashing a blue light.

    I went to 'services' to check that bluetooth is enabled. True.

    Nothing happens now.
    I went to 'add a bluetooth device' under hardware, and it is still busy searching, but nothing happens.

    All this I have repeated several times in different orders, but no changes.

    Can anyone help me out. What am I missing here? or is something just broke when I bought it. All are new, not second hand.

    Thank you.

    Oh. the keyboard did not come with any software It does not seem to have a brand. It wasn't that expensive though.

    It might be I bought shit, but I'd like to know whether i'm doing something wrong in settings or so...

    Floris run this Speccy - Download (download from piriform) see what is listed there. (See pic)


    It might be as well to update thee drivers for the chipset and maybe the LAN.

    But what has me a little unsure is that you said the KB works with Apple Windows and I am wondering if it is not compatible with Microsoft Windows. Pity you don't know the brand.
