I am about to go insane. I have spent hours on this, reading through the forums, searching for a solution and cannot find anything that works.
New build with 10.8.2 (ML)
Gigabyte UD5H
i7 3770k
I think those are all the details you need. I ran through all the guides (UniBeast, MultiBeast) here for my motherboard and all is running well...except for BT.
I got the IOGear GBU521 because it is supposed to work OOB. Sure enough, the system recognizes the BT dongle, but when I try to pair my wireless Apple keyboard and my Magic Trackpad, it does not find either of them. Just spins and says "Searching for Bluetooth devices".
So, this is what I have done to try to solve the issue:
- Pushed the buttons on both keyboard and trackpad to get the blinking lights (more times than I can count)
- Put in fresh batteries
- Moved the dongle from USB 3.0 to 2.0 (someone posted they will only recognize devices on 2.0)
- Moved to dongle from back to front for better range (devices are within 2 feet of dongle)
- Rebooted (numerous times)
- Rebooted with typing in: "-f UserKernalCache=No" in attempt to clear cache
- Checked the kext to see that device is there (it is, as expected in ML)
And nothing has worked. It simply is not seeing the devices. Please...before I go insane...does anyone have any ideas? Thanks...
Jason.
