please help. I've got a samsung series 9 laptop which I love but I've been trying to get a Nokia Bluetooth speaker thing which I'd love to get working. The bluttooth on the laptop I've had no end of trouble with, can't even find my phone etc. When I clivk fn+F12 which should toggle wifi/bluetooth it only appears to toggle wifi. I use fn+F2 to enter system settings and manually set Bluetooth on. I have managed to 'Find' the speaker, but was never asked for a password? now I have in my "Sound" panel (System Tray>Right Click the speaker Icon>PLayback devices) under ther the "playback" tab, a bluetooth headphones, a bluetooth headset, and a seakers, and only the speakers have a "Green Tick" next to them, the others have a "red down arrow" and I've no idea what this means? Maybe this is the start of my quest to find the solution? but until I know what that red arrow means I;m stuck. pleas help.!!!

This sounds more like a Bluetooth or some other PC software issue and not an "audio" problem. The networking section of the forum may be a better place to post (or a starting point).
