yerodtr Posted October 16, 2011 Share Posted October 16, 2011 Hey guys, I'm trying to get my Bluetooth dongle to work, but I'm not having any luck. Currently it doesn't work out of the box (although noted it should on the compat list). I see the following under System Information: BCM2046B1: Product ID: 0x4500 Vendor ID: 0x0a5c (Broadcom Corp.) Version: 1.00 Speed: Up to 12 Mb/sec Manufacturer: Broadcom Location ID: 0x3d100000 / 2 Current Available (mA): 500 Current Required (mA): 94 Composite Device: Product ID: 0x4502 Vendor ID: 0x0a5c (Broadcom Corp.) Version: 1.00 Speed: Up to 12 Mb/sec Location ID: 0x3d110000 / 4 Current Available (mA): 132 Current Required (mA): 2 Composite Device: Product ID: 0x4503 Vendor ID: 0x0a5c (Broadcom Corp.) Version: 1.00 Speed: Up to 12 Mb/sec Location ID: 0x3d120000 / 3 Current Available (mA): 132 Current Required (mA): 2 I'm running Lion 10.7.1. The BT dongle is specifically the IOGear GBU421. I have seen several people around running this, but I'm not having any luck. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

yerodtr Posted November 17, 2011 Author Share Posted November 17, 2011 it works just fine in SN. but i have had zero luck getting it to work in lion. I've moved on from it. I bought a Jabra A320s cheap off Amazon. Worked immediately, no fuss. FYI.
