Looked in here: /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration. There i found a bluetooth plist file. I trashed it, rebooted, and then my USB dongle was finally recognized. I did not need to reset any SMC, NVRAM.
Bluetooth 1.5 works on all Macintosh computers running Mac OS X version 10.3.2 or later. Printers must support the Bluetooth Hard Cable Replacement Profile (HCRP) and have a Mac OS X Bluetooth enabled printer driver. Headset support requires a Bluetooth enabled headset and either an internal Apple Bluetooth module or a D-Link DBT-120 rev. B or later. In order to configure and use a Bluetooth headset, the Bluetooth module must have the latest Bluetooth firmware from the Bluetooth Firmware Updater application version 1.0.2 or later ( ). Speech recognition is not supported using a Bluetooth headset.
If you are trying to configure a Bluetooth mouse, it maybe helpful to download and install an advanced driver for USB and for Bluetooth mice. To obtain the appropriate driver, visit the following Apple Web site:
I bought the new 16-inch MacBook Pro when it first came out and was happily using it until a week later my bluetooth stopped discovering devices, in particular my Magic Mouse and iPhone. I tried everything from resetting nvram, smc, resetting the bluetooth module, removing bluetooth.plist, downloaded bluetooth explorer and reset a bunch of settings etc and even went to the extent of completely formatting the computer and installing osx from scratch to no avail. Hardware diagnostics showed no hardware issues as well. The bluetooth device was showing up fine in System Report but it just wasn't discovering anything. I have a work laptop (2017 MacBook Pro) which I use side by side and it was working fine.
I have a CalDigit dock that I use for my work laptop and occasionally have a usb bluetooth device attached to it for some work I do in virtual machines. The issue occurred when I connected my new MacBook to the dock along with the bluetooth dongle. The usb bluetooth dongle worked fine however when I disconnected the thunderbolt dock from the MacBook I noticed the bluetooth icon in the top right hand corner changed to an icon with a zigzag across it, obviously due to bluetooth device being disconnected.
Since disconnecting the external bluetooth device I'm having the same issue as I had previously, my MacBook Bluetooth device won't find any devices and is not recognized by other bluetooth devices like my iPhone/other MacBooks. I've gone through the whole process as before, and have resorted to a clean install of osx to no avail. I've even compared bluetoothd console logs between the working MacBook I have and the now broken one, the only difference is the working MacBook is able to detect devices when they are advertised, whereas the MacBook Pro 16-inch does not.
Digging into this, it seems as though OSX by default switches to any attached USB bluetooth device when it's plugged in and then when disconnected, it reverts back to the onboard device. This works fine on my old MacBook as I've been using the USB dongle for a while now without any issues. I initially thought that there may be a software issue with the internal bluetooth device not switching back properly but I would have thought a clean install would have fixed it so there must be some sort of hardware issue specifically with the new MacBook Pro 16-inch.
I'm pretty frustrated now as I've now gone through two 16-inch MacBook Pro's with bricked bluetooth devices that I'm fairly certain was caused by connecting an external bluetooth dongle via thunderbolt. I'm pretty sure onboard devices shouldn't die just because a third party device was connected/disconnected.
The built-in bluetooth came back to life by running system diagnostics (hold down D during boot). After the subsequent restart, without the USB bluetooth adapter attached, I noticed that bluetooth was seeing some devices in the area but still not connecting to anything. I deleted and re-paired my Magic Mouse 2 and Magic Keyboard 2 - now all is working again.
In theory VirtualHere + ZeroTier could be used to share a BT 2.0 dongle from one machine on the internet to another one and unbreak something remotely. (not sure if that would work in practice though as emulation is not perfect. Though I know that Bluetooth over Internet works well as that is ironically how I broke my BT in the first place as I needed a dongle for bluetooth-over-internet)
I also was caught out when accidentally connected a hub with bluetooth dongle already connected. Luckily, I was able to find this thread, otherwise, it would have been an expensive, seemingly pointless, and time consuming repair. It's not very environmentally responsible.
As others have pointed out, do notice however that while bluetooth is back to a working state, System Report still says that the WLCore versions are null, that the Airport Utility is not installed and the Bluetooth Explorer still references the -3903 error..
Well that looked very promising and thanks for sharing. I ran these commands but it doesn't fix my internal bluetooth. I even bought the external bluetooth 2.0 "mushroom" receiver but that doesn't work for me either.
What does system report say for bluetooth component (what is the Manufacturer set to)? Before I issued commands listed above, manufacturer ID was set to Cambridge Silicon Radio, even though external dongle was not plugged in. Now, it is set to this:
Under USB in system info my external receiver was always listed as bluetooth device even when not attached but that is now gone since a week or so. But internal bluetooth is still not working. Also running the other commands you listed didn't help.
I would avoid exporting everything, nvram contents could contain some sensitive information that should not be shared. That being said, I could export bluetoothInternalControllerInfo, but again, it could make things even worse, as it seems that you guys could have a different firmware version, which might not support some of my settings...
Non of the Kexts from this project implement any part of the Bluetooth Stack, hence they are not considered as drivers. They do not handle HCI commands, device pairing, and any feature other than uploading the firmware and preparing the device. The core part of Bluetooth is handled by Apple's drivers which only provides limited compatibility.
This is the drivers for the CSR Bluetooth device. You will note that there are a different files for each driver as there are Windows 7/8 which are all 32 bit versions of the driver. You will note that this is driver version 5.0.11.0. The 64bit Bluetooth driver has been added below as well for the CSR Bluetooth.
If the driver listed is not the right version or operating system, search our driver archive for the correct version. Enter CSR Bluetooth Communications Port into the search box above and then submit. In the results, choose the best match for your PC and operating system.
Once you have downloaded your new driver, you'll need to install it. In Windows, use a built-in utility called Device Manager, which allows you to see all of the devices recognized by your system, and the drivers associated with them.
After connecting the adapter, you need to install the Bluetooth driver for the Bluetooth adapter. Ensure that you install the Bluetooth driver using the Driver Installation CD. The CSR 4.0 dongle fails tocommunicate with the Parrot minidrone if the Bluetooth driver is not installed on the Windows® system.
At first, I thought this was going to be a very easy problem to figure out. However, as it turned out, the CSR Bluetooth driver that I downloaded for my Winmobile Prosphere was not able to work properly with my unit.
I then downloaded and installed the latest CSR Bluetooth driver onto my laptop. Then I restarted my computer and ran the device manager again. lo and behold the CSR Bluetooth remote control device driver was working fine again. So this means that the CSR Bluetooth driver does actually work on this OS!
If you want to try the latest version of the CSR Bluetooth driver, then you can download it from the Microsoft site. Once you have downloaded the drivers, you will need to install them. To do this, open the Device Manager by clicking Start | All Programs | Accessories | Control Panel | Program).
The most convenient way to do a driver update is to use Driver Update Wizard. This program will automatically update drivers on your system and even allow you to select which ones to update, as well as save them in a specific location. The only thing you need to do is to go to the step above and follow the on-screen instructions.
The latest CSR Bluetooth driver updates will also fix any bugs that might be inside the software itself. For example, the CSR software will sometimes not recognize your Bluetooth device if you have updated it. In order to prevent such a problem from happening, it is best to keep your drivers up-to-date. Use the driver update wizard to fix the issues. 2b1af7f3a8
