fagosu Posted March 24, 2012 Share Posted March 24, 2012 Hi everyone, I'm trying to make my CSR bluetooth adapter work with snow leopard 10.6.8. It is a Cambridge Silicon Radio and OSX recognizes it and I can pair any phone to my hack, but when I try to send or receive a file I get a "there was a problem connecting to the device" after a long wait. This is what I have in System Profiler under USB Bluetooth USB Host Controller: BSD Name: en2 Product ID: 0x0001 Vendor ID: 0x0a12 (Cambridge Silicon Radio Ltd.) Version: 19.15 Speed: Up to 12 Mb/sec Location ID: 0x7d200000 / 2 Current Available (mA): 500 Current Required (mA): 0 And this is the Bluetooth section: Apple Bluetooth Software Version: 2.4.5f3 Hardware Settings: Address: 00-1f-81-00-08-30 Manufacturer: Cambridge Silicon Radio Name: Webmaster’s Mac Pro Firmware Version: 3 Bluetooth Power: On Discoverable: Yes Vendor ID: 0 Product ID: 0x1 HCI Version: 3 (0x3) HCI Revision: 68 (0x44) LMP Version: 3 (0x3) LMP Subversion: 3 (0x3) Device Type (Major): Computer Device Type (Complete): Macintosh Desktop Composite Class Of Device: 3801348 (0x3a0104) Device Class (Major): 1 (0x1) Device Class (Minor): 1 (0x1) Service Class: 464 (0x1d0) Requires Authentication: No Services: Bluetooth File Transfer: Folder other devices can browse: ~/Public Requires Authentication: Yes State: Enabled Bluetooth File Exchange: Folder for accepted items: ~/Downloads Requires Authentication: Yes When other items are accepted: Ask When PIM items are accepted: Ask When receiving items: Prompt for each file State: Enabled Incoming Serial Ports: Serial Port 1: Name: Bluetooth-PDA-Sync RFCOMM Channel: 3 Requires Authentication: Yes Outgoing Serial Ports: Serial Port 1: Address: Name: Bluetooth-Modem RFCOMM Channel: 0 Requires Authentication: No Can anybody shed some light? I already checked CSRUSBBluetoothHCIController.kext inside IOBluetoothFamily.kext and my device and Vendor ids are there, so I don't know what's going on.

eep357 Posted March 24, 2012 Share Posted March 24, 2012 I have same deviceID on mine and works OTB on all versions of OSX. Your firmware version looks like it might be out dated. Here is info from mine if it helps you to compare, the apple bluetooth version and a few other little things are different due to OSX revision, but if you can update the firmware on it in windows or something, that's where I'd start.

eep357 Posted March 25, 2012 Share Posted March 25, 2012 Also your Vendor ID in USB section not matching Vendor ID in Bluetooth section Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/277404-usb-bluetooth-mini-adapter-pairs-but-cant-send-or-receive-files/#findComment-1808486 Share on other sites More sharing options...
fagosu Posted March 29, 2012 Author Share Posted March 29, 2012 Thanks for your answer. Unfortuntely it does appear that my firmware version is the problem. I'm looking into upgrading the firmware on it, but since it is a very cheap module I don't have much hope. I'll keep trying. Thanks Also your Vendor ID in USB section not matching Vendor ID in Bluetooth section Yes, I noticed that but that is the way my computer reports it. That's how I saw that there was something wrong.
