    Hello, I'm Italian :D. So sorry for my english!
    I've got a HP Pavilion zv6100, and I have a problem with Bluetooth Wireless. When I try opening the bluetooth device from the computer, it appears a messagge "There isn't any peripheral"! The wireless spy is on, I don't know what should be the problem... Thanks for help ;).

    Is the device's bluetooth turned on and set to "find me" mode?
    Make sure the notebook and the device are placed literally next to each other.

    What device are you trying to pair up with your laptop?

    With my devices, i usually have to tell them to connect to my laptop. I also have to have my bluetooth software set to automatically detect devices. It is much easier that way.

    Sorry, maybe I've explained badly...
    It seems that in the notebook the Bluetooth device is turned off... Like if it there isn't! But 2 week ago it worked...
