[QUOTE="himmelstorte, post: 1351585, member: 232155"] Hi y'all, I'm new to mac-forums so I hope I posted it in the correct section. I've searched for other threads regarding my problem but found none. If I oversaw it, please notify me and I'll do what I can to delete this one (not yet figured out how, but that's irrelevant). [B]Often I leave my MacBook Pro 13" on overnight to e.g. finish a download which takes a while. Now in the morning I realized the power plug wasn't connected and it turned itself off due to no battery life left. I charged and awakened my MacBook but somehow the Bluetooth function seems to have turned itself off. Though in the menu bar at the top is still written [I]"BT: On"[/I]. At times if I try to actually use BT it prompts me with the message [I]"BT is turned off, do you want to turn it on?"[/I]. The same counts for BT preferences and System Profiler, both show that BT is turned off. However, if I try to check the box to turn (in BT preferences) it on it stays checked for like half a second but then unchecks itself again. I am absolutely sure that I did not click twice, neither clicked without noticing. Does anyone have an idea to solve this? Restarting won't work.[/B] Sorry for the novel like length, but I wanted to give as much info as possible since I thought it might be useful ;D [/QUOTE]
