dhmc Posted November 23, 2010 Share Posted November 23, 2010 Hey guys hoping you can help me with my lil problem! Bought a bluetooth adapter I have no info on it whatsoever tho. As I threw the box out and the thing is the size of a finger nail with no markings. Installed a few kexts from kext.com to see if it would work which it doesnt it says it should work off the bat in osx. My install is retail tony method. Is there a program I can install to get some hardware info on it?

U.C. Posted November 27, 2010 Share Posted November 27, 2010 Or more importantly, maybe the dongle is faulty. If it does not show in system profiler, thats prolly the case, Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/238031-bought-a-bluetooth-dongle-states-on-the-package-it-works-with-mac-cant-get-it-to-work/#findComment-1592327 Share on other sites More sharing options...
