Just an FYI, I know this thread is old, but was helpful in setting up my Cy·Fi stereo speaker to my PC.

I have a $2 generic Bluetooth Adapter. I did not want to pay for Bluesoleil.

I installed the program from the following link and everything works perfect:

AWESOME POST… I’ve been dealing with the Bluesoleil issue as well since my laptop doesn’t have built in and the cheap usb one i bought was that brand. I am glad you suggested a different usb adapter because I refused to spend 30 bucks on software for my 4 dollar bluetooth dongle! I thought I was alone and crazy but seems like its become a huge issue in Windows 7. Thanks!

Sorry I meant to say standard 3.5 mm, the kind you normally use for stereo headphones. I did not mean to say 2.5 mm used for headset/microphones and I corrected it in the post.

Is that a 2.5mm or 3.5mm jack in the item on the last paragraph?

I ask because a “standard” headphone miniplug is 3.5mm, but some phones (especially older ones) do use a 2.5mm jack for a headset. I also couldn’t find anything about it in the item description, though some user questions seem to indicate that it is actually 3.5mm.

Thanks!

Hello George
I use a Toshiba Laptop with BT, It uses the Toshiba Bluetooth Stack.
I Like the toshiba BT Stack over Widcomm’s since It installs everyting out-of-the-box. I have a Motorola S9 Bluetooth Headphones (A2DP+AVRCP+HSP) and when Traveling I connect my laptop to my Car Audio System on a Sony MEX-BT2500 (A2DP+AVRCP+HSP)… All Fairly Easy… Except for just 1 Thing. You need to tell windows that the A2DP Device is the Default Audio Device, otherwise, audio won’t go out Through the BT system.
I used to work in Motorola giving Customer Tech support for their BT Adapter here in Costa Rica, they use the Widcomm BT Stack and it’s more complicated than Toshiba’s One… One I don’t like at all, the Bluesoleil!

My Recommendation for BT if you don’t have a BT Adapter: Get a Toshiba BT Adapter USB (US$30 aprox; yes a little bit overpriced) with a the Toshiba BT Stack and you won’t have to go trought that pain anymore + Updates of the BT Stack Drivers always for free!
