Sound does not come from the Bluetooth headphone
Symptom: Sound does not come from the Bluetooth headset/headphone but comes from the local speaker
even though the headset/headphone is connected using Headset profile or AV profile.
Action: Do the following:
1. Exit the application that uses the sound device (for example, Windows Media Player).
2. Open the Control Panel by clicking Start ➙ Control Panel.
3. Click Hardware and Sound ➙ Sound.
4. Select the Playback tab.
5. If you are using Headset profile, select Bluetooth Hands-free Audio and click the Set Default button. If
you are using AV profile, select Stereo Audio and click the Set Default button.
6. Click OK to close the Sound window.
PIM items sent from the Windows 7 operating system cannot be received correctly
Symptom: Personal Information Manager (PIM) items sent from the Windows 7 operating system cannot be
received correctly into the address book of any other Bluetooth-enabled device.
Action: The Windows 7 operating system sends PIM items in XML format, but most Bluetooth-enabled
devices handle PIM items in vCard format. If another Bluetooth-enabled device can receive a file through
Bluetooth, a PIM item sent from the Windows 7 operating system might be saved as a file with the extension
.contact.
