Do you have a bluetooth dongle plugged to your PC?

Open a terminal and type:

Code: Select all

rfkill list
Normally you should see a bluetooth device like this:

Code: Select all

0: hci0: Bluetooth
	Soft blocked: no
	Hard blocked: no
If it says it's blocked, you can unblock it typing:

Code: Select all

rfkill unblock 0
Adjust the number so that it matches the number given by the 'rfkill list' command.

Maybe it's defective.
Type in a terminal:

Code: Select all

lsusb
and check if the dongle is in the usb device list.

You can try another usb port, and remove any usb extension cable or any usb hub if you are using one.
