Bluetooth Mouse Windows 8
With two computers, one Dell and one Acer, I have problems with the bluetooth funcion going offline. With the Acer it is momentary - a few seconds to a few minutes before I get functionality back. With the Dell it is permanent.When both computers atart the bluetooth mouse works normally. The bluetooth function shows under Device Manager and also in the tray.After a few minutes the mouse functionality will stop.
It is program independent, stopping on Office products, Adobe products and even on I. Explorer.After it stops the bluetooth function has removed itself from the Device manager (and alos from devices etc.) The mouse shows up as offline and there seems to be o way of getting it back online. The wireless functiosn show wi-fi and wi-fi only.With the Dell pressing Fn/F2 will sometimes toggle off the wi-fi and toggle back on both bluetooth and win-fi.
Mostly it controls only the Wi-Fi.ALl drivers appear to be up to date. Problems with the Dell appeared to intensify after loading tghe new Logiteck set-point software (that the Dell Mouse calls for since I guess it isreally a Logitech mouse in Dell clothing.)A corded USB mouse will work.Any other thoughts?Original title: Blutooth function going offlineBarrie. Hi BarrieA,Thank you for posting your query in the Microsoft Community. It seems that you have an issue with Bluetooth mouse going “offline”.
Bluetooth Mouse Lag Windows 8.1
We can get this issue fixed by proceeding systematically. It might be frustrating for you.
Jul 04, 2018 There might be a possibility that you wont find the Bluetooth drivers for Windows 10 or Windows 8.1. Press and hold the buttons “Windows” and “R”. After you have the “Run” window opened we need to type in there “regedit”. Hit the “Enter” button on the keyboard.
Hi Nirmal:Thanks for response.To answer the questions.No, it is NOT limited to the DELL Bluetooth mouse. The Bluetooth pointer device I used in the lecture hall (Interlink VP6600R) will not load: it is recognized as a Bluetooth device but I get an error message saying something went wrong. Just whatI do not know. Bluetooth functionality was lost immediately thereafter.As mentioned earlier, I lose all Bluetooth functionality after a few minutes.
Before that, with the Windows 8 devices page on the screen, the Dell Bluetooth Mouse icon will flash an error (too fast to read) then go offline. The screen flickers andit then comes back - only to repeat the process of showing an error number/message, going offline then restarting until it eventually goes offline completely for the rest of the session. A reboot produces the same results.After rebooting in SAFEMODE the mouse works. I left it a few hours and it was still working (which probably eliminates the mouse itself as the problem.)The mouse is a Dell - M-RBB Del 4. It has worked well for years with Windows 7 (Ultimate).I had run the 'hardware and devices trouble shooter' and the system found something to fix. I know not what but the results were no different.With all non-Windows startup items and services disabled and with only two start-ups running (two copies of the system's Rundll32) the Bluetooth function still stutters and quits. I suspect the problem is therefore not third party software.Finally you ask if any changes were made.
Everything was working perfectly with Win 7. I used the upgrade route rather than a dual boot and in the process of the upgrade windows 8 found new drivers - actually a new version of Logitech'sSetPoint - and loaded that. There was also an update to the card reader, which seemed to work perfectly well without it.So where are we?I reran the troubleshooter as suggested. Same results - found and fixed something but I do not know what it found or what it fixed. Haven't located my error logs yet.Disabled all start-ups (except rundll32) and everything non-Microsoft with no positive results.Ran the system troubleshooter (which you had not specifically suggested) and that led to a recommendation that I have Windows 8 reset itself to default. I let it do that and in the process it moved everything to an 'old windows' file and eventuallyit rebooted.
The 'default' version was not able to locate the graphics driver, using instead the generic Windows driver, but it did detect the Bluetooth. It did not detect the Dell mouse.The Bluetooth dialogue would NOT allow clicking on the box to allow devices to see the computer. Clicking on the accept buttons gave an error message. Windows said the drivers were the most current but, after loading the Bluetooth drivers from theold system32 files in 'old windows' I was able to click the button to allow visibility.I did likewise for the graphics driver and got the screens to work properly.Windows 8 now sees the Bluetooth devices and allowed me to pair the Dell Mouse. It worked perfectly for a few minutes then started its offline routine.
Install Bluetooth Mouse Windows 8
It's now non-functional.There are only 2 items in task manager: the same two rundll32 processes.I have now partitioned the main drive and plan on installing windows 7 again probably as a dual boot.Unfortunately I will also have to reinstall office a couple of times and the adobe software. The latter may be a problem since the reset to default option wiped clean the register as far as I know without 'unlicensing' the adobe creative suite.The office is already a problem in that the Windows 8 shell, as it results from the 'default' roll back does not have the capacity to unpack the Office downloads.Any other suggestions?Thanks,Barrie Austin.
I'm also having similar issues with my Logitech MX5500. I've had my key board disconnect several times but my mouse seems to be going 'offline' at least 3 to 4 times a day. I've tried 3 different mice, removed the device in windows 8 Bluetooth devices andreinstalled, it still happens. The only way I've found that it comes back online quickly is by turning off my mouse then turning it back on.
Windows 8 rediscovers it as online. I've actually had window 8 say my mouse was offline and turning it on and off didn'thelp. I had to remove it from Bluetooth devices then reinstall it using windows 8 rediscovery.Does anyone know of a fix for this?
I to have been dealing with this issue of both my mouse and keyboard (Both Microsoft) just intermittently stopping. The only resolve is to turn off my WIFI toggle and then turn it back on.While digging around on various blogs for possible solutions I came across this little piece of information posted byManabu Tokunaga.
His post was aimed at windows 7 but I figured lets give it a go.As it turns out, both Bluetooth and WiFi network devices can shut itself down by default due to automatic power management controls.This behavior can be disabled from the Device Manager (just type these words in at the Start menu) and go to each Bluetooth Radio and WiFi device properties. You will find the Power Management tab where you can configure this.I will let you all know if the problem persists as I have disabled the 'Allow this computer to turn off this device to save power'.
This I have done on both my WIFI and Bluetooth adapters.
That wireless feature of many newer laptops that lets you connect headphones, earpieces, keyboards and even mobile devices. You don’t use it all that often, do you? How to download gmod addons no steam. It drains the battery when you’re not using it.In Windows 7, you’d turn on or off Bluetooth by entering the Device Manager and hunting around a wall of text for the adapter to disable. Managing Bluetooth in Windows 8 is much more user friendly. Turn On or Off Bluetooth. Move the mouse to the lower right so that several icons begin to appear. Move the mouse upward to reveal them.
This set of icons is called the Charm Bar. Click Settings. Click Change PC Settings.
