Note the following drivers are also available: Note as to how to install on a Windows 7 OS. Extract the files to a directory. RIGHT click on the setup file and click on ‘Troubleshoot Compatibility’. Click on Troubleshoot Compatibility and it will search the driver file. It will now give an option.

This is on Windows 7.

I have a mid 2011 iMac dual booting Lion and Windows 7 64 bit using Boot Camp. When booted into Windows my bluetooth keyboard and mice work fine, but when I attempt to connect a headset (I have tried 2 different ones from different manufacturers) I get errors about could not load the driver.

I have attempted to reinstall the driver using the update driver method for both the headset and I have reloaded the Boot Camp drivers replacing the entire bluetooth radio drivers in the process. I have also attempted to download and install the Broadcom drivers from Broadcom's site and the installer hangs on the Detecting Device step and never progresses even after an hour. Anyone have any luck getting a decent Bluetooth stack loaded in Windows on the new iMacs? If so what did you do?

What drivers did you use and where did you get them? Bootcamp Bluetooth Drivers Bootcamp bluetooth drivers for windows 7 of the new BCM20702 card are faulty you will notice mainly if you try to pair a Bluetooth Audio Device and forums seeded reporting different issues. Please help pushing some pressure on Apple to provide appropriate bluetooth drivers for t he new bluetooth card: BCM20702 BT V4 + HS, built in Macbook Air MID2011, Mackbook Pro 2011, iMAC and mini.

Broadcom drivers will not install properly either. You may want to use the link above to let them now that the actual drivers makes virtually any audio bluetooth device UNUSABLE: Cheers.

Yeah I saw that article already, but I was hesitant to download driver files from a third party site that I am not familiar with. I just got done trying those steps though and they did not work. Not only could I not get my headset working, but also my mice were showing as having errors and scrolling on both my magic mouse and trackpad stopped working, and right clicking on the trackpad stopped working. Come on Apple don't give us half baked Windows Drivers. I know that Microsoft is a competitor, but if you are going to support their software on your hardware support it fully.

Ok I tried it a second time. And the headset would pair correctly and even worked a bit, but would cut out after a few minutes. And I couldn't get the audio devices to split properly so that I could have 1 app using the headset and another using the built in speakers. Even though it sort of worked it is still a bad solution. Go download these drivers for a different computer manufacturer from a third party (could have compromised software) site, install them, and they might fix your problem somewhat.

The real issue here is that Apple is not releasing the proper Windows drivers for the Bluetooth chip they are using. And apparently are doing something to prevent the drivers from Broadcom from installing. I can excactly reproduce your issue in my MBA mid2011. I think both have the same Bluetooth card: BCM20702.

The acer drivers would work only if selecting the BCM2070 model (BT V3.0) but not with the actual BCM20702 embemed in our system. Generating a lot of issues. Mainly i have noticed it with AD2P audio devices. Eurepean Apple support. I only lost my time (and money) calling them and talking with people that even doesn't have any idea what 'driver' means, lol. I hope u have better luck trying to being eared by Apple in your country/region.

The issue we are experiencing is highly probable due to serious flaws in the bootcamp drivers support for the new bluetooth cards BCM20702 v4.0 + HS.

Well I found a temporary workaround for this issue.

The pros: most bluetooth deveices will connect smoothly, the cons: apple magic mouse will loose its 'magic scrolling' (known issue with bluesoleil fix ongoing) The workaround consists in installing bluesoleil V8.0xxx altough the suit doesnt recognize the BT in MBA 2011 by default you can force it. Here the steps:.

Ensure that the apple Bluetooth drivers ARE INSTALLED and working (should be the case after bootcamp installation). This should be the only stack installed if you tried broadcom or other uninstall them first. Install Bluesoleil v8.0. Go to: C: Program Files (x86) IVT Corporation BlueSoleil - Find the “bttl.inf” file and open it with a text editor. Look at the third line: NUM=492.

Then should be NUM=493. Locate in the text the following lines: ID=USB VID05AC&PIDffff Manufacture=Apple Add after the last HWXXX entry the VID-PID of the MBA’s 2011: HW493 ID=USB VID05AC&PID821F Manufacture=APPLE DFU. Save this file. Go to: C: Program Files (x86) IVT Corporation BlueSoleil driver usb. Find the text:%Apple.DeviceDesc%=BtusbDDI, USB Vid05ac&Pidffff Add after this text:%Apple.DeviceDesc%=BtusbDDI, USB VID05AC&PID821F Now should look:%Apple.DeviceDesc%=BtusbDDI, USB Vid05ac&Pidffff%Apple.DeviceDesc%=BtusbDDI, USB VID05AC&PID821F Note this text should appear twice in the file and BOTH needs to be edited.
