Hi,
I've tried to pair my TP via bluetooth to my Windows 7 64Bit machine and two of the drivers failed to installed.
I am wondering if anybody out there successfully paired the prime with a windows 7 64 bit machine.
I have attached a screenshot.
I have a Windows 7 64bit computer and was able to successfully pair the TF201 via bluetooth. I send files to and from each device and all were successful.

Hi There,
Actually your solution to your problem is simple, I was in the same situation few days ago, and i have managed to resolve the problem,
Please follow the steps below
Download the 'Windows Mobile Device Center' ( current version is 6.1 ) which you can download it from http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/en-us/downloads/microsoft/device-center-download.mspx
this works for both Vista and Windows 7. I've tried it on both.
- Install the downloaded software but it may not look like it worked on Windows 7 PCs. Vista automatically configured the settings on the bluetooth devices but for those who have Windows 7, here are the things you should do:
- Go to 'Device Manager' from 'Control Panel' -Or- just right-click on Computer Icon and choose 'Properties' and then click on 'Device Manager'.
- You'll see an 'Unknown Device' named 'Bluetooth Peripheral Device'
- Right-Click it and click on "Update Driver Software" -Or- anyway you find it easy to bring up the Update driver window.
- Click "Browse My Computer
for Driver Software" button.
- Click "Let Me Pick from a List of Device Drivers on my computer".
- Select 'Bluetooth Radio' from the list if it asked you to select and then in the next window, it will show a list of drivers with Company Names in one list and Drivers in another. In the Company List choose 'Microsoft Corporation', not only Microsoft.
- From the drivers list there may be one or more drivers with the name "Windows Mobile-Based Device Support" with different driver versions. Select one or the latest.
- Ignore any warnings and keep pressing next and then Finish at last. If all goes well, the last screen will show the message that device driver is successfully installed.
Now, after manually updating the driver for your bluetooth device, in 'Device Manager' when you click on 'Bluetooth Radios', it should display one more item which will say 'Windows Mobile-based device support'.
There are few more things that you want to pay attention to. If you have already added the device in your 'bluetooth device list' that didn't work, then remove the device and add it again. After you add it, you might need to restart the computer if it gave you a connection problem error message.
Every PCs that had Windows 7 and Vista worked after installing this software and I hope it will work for you too.

Tech Faded, before I opened this thread I found the same troubleshooting you suggested with your reply and after giving it a try it did not work for me, it is why I decided to go live on XDA, but thank you for your time a quick response.
Note: the download link you pasted is for "Windows Mobile Device Center 32bit"
The download link for the 64bit version is http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?id=3182
Problem solved (own troubleshooting)
I have pasted what I have to performed in order to fix my Bluetooth connection.
I hope it helps other users with similar problems. Maybe it can be done with fewer steps but this is exactly what I did...
Step 1
Removed the Bluetooth drivers from Windows 7 Device Manager and restarted laptop. Note: Uninstalled drivers (with the "delete driver" option).
Step 2
Unpaired all already paired devices (external BT GPS and Pioneer BT head unit) from the transformer prime.
Step 3
Restart laptop and restart T Prime
Step 4
Pair the Prime to my laptop. The process went smooth and as you can see on the attached screenshot of the paired results, the two 'Bluetooth Peripheral Device' with the X I did get previously to my troubleshooting did not show up this time.
After all these steps I was able to connect successfully.
I have also attached a screenshot of my T Prime successfully connected via BT to my laptop.
Thanks a lot for your replies!
I apologize for posting the 32bit version. Also, great work on your problem solving skills I am assuming that the peripherals belonged to another device which as you suggest you removed from device manager.

Although I can pair my galaxy S2 with windows (Win 7, x64), and have it show up under Bluetooth devices (and visa versa for my computer within my phone), I can't have MyPhoneExplorer/Kies recognise the Bluetooth connection. Kies throws up a complaint about a missing Bluetooth device driver which is shown in device manager as "Bluetooth Peripheral Device". All Google searches for this device driver have ended poorly. Has anyone else encountered this problem?
Thanks for your help.
For those interested, managed to correct this via starting up MyPhoneExplorer on the phone when initially pairing the phone with my computer. Although the device is still missing drivers within device manager, everything seems to work. Does anyone else have the phone identifying as missing drivers in Win 7 x64? There seems to be a 'solution' to this, mentioned on several forums (for example, here: http://forum.xda-developers.com/archive/index.php/t-430368.html) that involves installing a generic driver from the windows mobility device center - but surely doesn't seem right as it's a device driver for windows mobile, when I've seen the same advice put out for Blackberry's, iphones, etc. People seem to think it works but I can't help but think that there are some consequences here that are unconsidered.

I tried on my Win7 installation just now. Only consequences so far: works. Be sure to download Windows Mobility Center 64bit if you are on 64bit Windows.
I tried that today.
Works like a charm to enable two way file transfers between Windows 7 notebook and Samsung Galaxy S2.
However, the bluetooth stack on this phone is still missing so many features... It's a pity, really.
Thanks for your help.
Installing Windows Mobile Device Center is not necessary. The peripheral just needs a standard bluetooth COM port driver.
1. In the Bluetooth device window, right-click the phone icon and select 'Properties'
2. Click 'Hardware' tab then 'Properties'
3. Click 'Change settings'
4. Select the 'Driver' tab, then 'Update driver...'
5. Click the second option: "Browse my computer for driver software"
6. Click to choose the option "Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer"
7. From the list "Common hardware types", Select 'Ports (COM & LPT)'
8. Two droplists appear. Choose 'Microsoft' in the "Manufacturer" list, then 'Standard Serial over Bluetooth link' in the "Model" list
9. A warning window pops up. Ignore it by clicking 'Yes'
10. Presto, the device functions properly..
Ok I got to the update driver menu by selecting "change settings" of the general tab, not the driver tab. Then selecting driver tab I was able to "update driver...".
I followed the rest of your instructions precisely, and presto..... it almost worked. It tried a lot harder when I attempted to send an image phone -> pc, but still failed... Any extra help?
Right click on Bluetooth icon in notification area and click receive file. Then try sending file from phone
Update: Regarding drivers. I installed Atheros bluetooth Win7 x64 stack. It recognizes all blueooth drivers for SII but I couldn't use files transfer
My fix
I just went into the devices properties and under services, unchecked SMS and no more missing Bluetooth Peripheral Device driver! I don't know what functionality i have turned off (since i don't use that service) but it help to remove the needs troubleshooting icon.:good:
Sweet
:laugh: Worked like a charm thanks bro. File transfer work and all Sending video to my computer as I type this.

Didn't work for my laptop, because when I right click on bluetooth notification area, I don't have "receive file" option on the display which coming on. . .
Give me more advice, please. . .
Excavating. Tried all the above. Still, two components are not installed. Bottom line, can identify speakers and headphones but can't connect - says try again. No problems on android device, but windows 7 64 struggles. Strangely, similar problems were with a previous machine (thinkpad x200, windows 7 32) and different devices. Now I am on x230 thinkpad.

Anybody else got problems with connecting to the PC with the USB cable?
What "problems" are you having?
The Windows Explorer does not start, though there is the sound when connecting the USB. Tried uninstalling the driver and letting the system reinstall upon connecting, but still cannot see Nexus 9 in Windows explorer. In Linux get the the notification and clicking on the "open with File Manager" gives a quick error message - too quick to read. So I am wondering if anyone got this problem??

Same here
I updated my SDK files, but that didn't seem to work either. It does show up as a camera when I change from MTP, so I just started sideloading apps, files, and books to the picture folder, then using a file explorer to move them to the correct folder.
+chuckie59 So I am not alone with this problem! Have used AirDroid to copy things over.

Mine was able to be detected at my work computer (windows 2000 in MTP mode), but it shows up as "Android" in Explorer instead of a drive letter like I'm used to with my phone.
Same for me. Only ptp working. Google USB ADB drivers instaled

You'll never get it to show up as a driver letter. Android gave up on mass storage a couple of versions ago.

If you are on W8.1 then you may have the "ACER Composite ADB Interface" - A Microsoft upgrade fault.
A search for "ACER Composite ADB Interface remove error delete" should give plenty of hits. Here's the first post from http://forums.androidcentral.com/google-nexus-7-tablet-2012/362325-nexus-7-not-recognized-computer-2.html :
Would you happen to know if any Acer drivers are installed on your computer? Here recently there was a Windows Update that installed the wrong driver and made it so that I had the exact same problems as you're having. Here's how I fixed it.
Go To> Control Panel>Hardware and Devices>Device Manager. In Device manager look for something along the lines of "ACER Composite ADB Interface", at least in my case I had the wrong ADB interface installed. You'll know if you have the wrong drivers if you go to Devices and Printers and right click your Nexus 7 and go to it's properties. It should be under the hardware tab where it lists it. If it doesn't just say Nexus 7 then follow these instructions. Once you find it in the Device Manager (once again in my case it was the ACER Composite ADB Interface causing the issue) right click and and uninstall it. There should be a dialogue box that pops up right after which will ask you if you want to delete the drivers. Check this box and proceed with the uninstall. After successfully uninstalling the drivers plug in or unlplug and plug back in your Nexus 7. It should show up now with the correct drivers installed.
Thanks, but I am on Windows 7. Driver is ClockworkMod Ver 7.0.0.1 dated 2012-08-27, which Windows reports as up to date (?). Works for PTP but not MTP.
I have had problems with other devices including the nexus 5 and nexus 10 to connect over mtp. Previously i used the nexus root toolkit which has some wizard to guide you to install proper drivers for mtp and adb. The toolkit is yet to support nexus 9 but you can still use the wizard to uninstall the old drivers and reinstall correct ones
Updating sdk. Uninstall and installing again driver did the trick for me
SORTED!! (sort of) Updated sdk and uninstalled and installed the driver again, but it did not do the trick for me. Gave up on Win7.
Instead had a go on XP. Initially everything the same. Noticed two choices of compatible hardware given: "Google Nexus ADB Interface" (the one I had installed already) and "USB Composite Device". Tried the latter one, and yes it did install. In the device manager it turns up as "Portable Device/Nexus 9" (and not as "Android Phone/Google Nexus ADB Interface" as before).
In Windows Explorer it is shown as "Nexus 9/Internal storage" with all the directories, and actually when inserting the USB I do get auto start. By the way, was having the USB debugging disabled. The driver is Microsoft dated 2006-02-22 version 5.2.5326.4762 - which is not what I would have expected. But it works!
Will try to get something similar to work on Windows 7
SORTED! Yes also Win 7 - and it was easy. Uninstalled the driver, plugged in the USB and it installed! Also got the auto start to choose action. It now turns up as "Portable Devices/Nexus 9" in the device manager and as "Nexus 9/Internal storage/etc" in Windows Explorer. The driver is now Microsoft ver 6.1.7600.16385 dated 2006-06-21. Strange. As long as it is working!
I found a fix for VZW LG G3 Bluetooth drivers work around that works
1 - Download the 'Windows Mobile Device Center' (current version is 6.1) which you can download it here for 32-bit OS or here for 64-bit OS. This works for both Vista and Windows 7. I've tried it on both.
2 - Install the downloaded software but it may not look like it worked on Windows 7 PCs. Vista automatically configured the settings on the Bluetooth devices but for those who have Windows 7, here are the things you should do:
3 - Go to 'Device Manager' from 'Control Panel' -Or- just right-click on Computer Icon and choose 'Properties' and then click on 'Device Manager'.
4 - You'll see an 'Unknown Device' named 'Bluetooth Peripheral Device'
5 - Right-Click it and click on "Update Driver Software" -Or- anyway you find it easy to bring up the Update driver window.
Click "Browse My Computer Image for Driver Software" button.
Click "Let Me Pick from a List of Device Drivers on my computer".
Select 'Bluetooth Radio' from the list if it asked you to select and then in the next window, it will show a list of drivers with Company Names in one list and Drivers in another. In the Company List choose 'Microsoft Corporation', not only Microsoft.
From the drivers list there may be one or more drivers with the name "Windows Mobile-Based Device Support" with different driver versions. Select one or the latest.
Ignore any warnings and keep pressing next and then Finish at last. If all goes well, the last screen will show the message that device driver is successfully installed.
After doing this and pairing my PC and phone again, I was able to send files between them through Bluetooth.
I hope this helps
Hi, I'm new to the N9, have had the tablet about a week. I have tried connecting it to my windows 7 Pc and the N9 isn't recognized. I have tried all the basics, all drivers are current, set tablet to mtp, and not found. I have connected to a friend's Windows 10 PC and the N9 is found immediately. My N9 is a wifi only device, non rooted. I have 2 other Android devices that my W7 PC finds with no issue. Anyone else experience this, and or have any suggestions on how to fix this issue ? Not looking to root at this point. Any help and guidance would be greatly appreciated
I think there are many threads about this problem. Nexus Root Toolkit has a driver installation feature.
If you were starting from scratch I'd delete any unknown "tablet/usb" devices in Device Manager - look for the also delete drivers option.
Google's W7 installation instructions are here http://developer.android.com/tools/extras/oem-usb.html#Win7
On this page http://developer.android.com/sdk/win-usb.html is a link to download a zip file of the drivers (not the full SDK package) Click here to download the latest Google USB Driver ZIP file.
This software http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/usb_devices_view.html is possibly better than device manager in deleting drivers
In some cases, you need to enable ADB on your N9 before plugging it into your PC (Settings -> Developer Options -> Android Debugging).

Thank you for your help, I had already tried all of this, but tried once more in case a step was missed. Every other Android device I have, or had never gave me an issue like this. The 2 android phones I have connect to pc without a problem, I am at a loss, lol.
When deleting drivers, should I have deleted all drivers for all devices, or just the ones installed from N9 ? Thanks again for your help

I've not got access to a Windows 7 PC. Does this page help http://www.topnotchtablets.com/FixUSBproblems
A basic one. I don't think it's relevant until you have a connection. Do you know that the N9 USB connection defaults to "charging only" and you need to pull down the notification menu to enable MTP to see the device contents
In USBDeview
Expand the window there are a lot more columns
There is a "connected" y/n column. I'm not certain that this works as expected, I can connect a tablet and despite an F5 refresh or a restart of the program it will stay a "No"
Look at the VendorId column AFAIK everything Google Nexus related has an ID of "18D1"
Have tried to establish what, if anything pops up in Device Manager when you plug in the N9 so you can disable it? Nirsoft have a program http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/device_manager_view.html that gives a table view of all devices - no clicking to expand trees

Thank you for your help I greatly appreciated it. After trying pretty much everything, I decided to see if the ruu's for my two phones would run on W10. They did, so I then proceeded to update my W7 to W10. N9 communicates perfectly now with my PC. Thank you
I was unable to find help elsewhere, so I was recommended to come here. No rooting, hacking, reprogramming, or anything else. Just a basic connection problem.
I recently bought a new Solid-State hard drive, and re-installed Windows 7 on it. Everything is great, and it's fully updated.
My problem is that while my LG Optimus G E980 phone will charge via the USB cable, I can't "open" it in My Computer, to transfer pictures, music, etc.
I have tried downloading the driver from LG's Website (LGMobileDriver_WHQL_Ver_4.1.1), but when I run it, I get the following message:
"The Microsoft MTP driver is not found on your system. Please install Windows Media Format Feature Pack using Download Link for your media device to work correctly."
It then provided me with a link to download this. However, when I do that and run the update, I get told the update is not applicable to my computer.
Whether I try to install this update or not, it doesn't matter, because the driver installation tells me it was installed successfully. However, judging by the icon in my Taskbar with the red/white "X" and the fact that my phone still won't connect, it hasn't.
Yes, my phone is set up to ask me what I want to do when connected to the PC, and Media sync (MTP) is selected. Here's the kicker... remember, I have two hard drives. When I boot using the other hard drive, the phone connects with no problem. Same USB cable and port. Therefore, this is DEFINITELY software-related.
Is there something preventing this driver from installing? Why is the phone not installing the driver itself? Thoughts would be appreciated! Thanks.
Have you Manually installing the driver from Devices manager?
In the Device Manager locate your Android device. Then right-click on it and select "Update Driver Software".
Select "Browse my computer for driver software".
Select "Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer".
Select "Show All Devices".
Press the "Have Disk" button.
Enter the path to the Google USB driver. Normally it is located in the following directory: C:\Program Files (x86)\Android\android-sdk\extras\google\usb_driver
Select "Android ADB Interface" from the list of device types.

Thanks for the quick reply.
I searched, and do not have a folder called "Android".
I did, however, find a folder called "LG United Mobile Drivers", however there are about 30 different drivers in there. I picked a few, including "Lgandadb" and "Lgnetandadb", but I get told "Windows encountered a problem", and "This device cannot start (Code 10)"
Anyone?
Ok, I'll try to put it another way. When you first connect an Android phone to a PC, drivers are installed automatically. I'm willing to bet there was an error when I installed them on my new hard drive.
Are the drivers already a part of Windows? If so, perhaps I need to do a Repair of Windows?
Are they located in an Auto-Run file on the phone, and maybe I need to re-run that program?
Perhaps there's something I need to delete or flag so that my phone thinks it's the "first time" again?
