[QUOTE="hughvane, post: 1922013, member: 56231"] OS High Sierra, Mini 2010 Bluetooth has disappeared, cause uncertain. •The Mini was connected to a JBL sound system, and to my iPhone. Both those devices are working, but there is no communication between either of them and the Mini. •A check of (what was) the Bluetooth symbol in the menu bar tells me Bluetooth: Not Available •A check of SysPrefs show the Bluetooth icon missing •Bluetooth PAN in Network shows Not Connected. A *[I]possible[/I]* cause was a Bluetooth headset connected by USB to charge its battery. It's likely the headset was left on during recharging in order to show the progress in a small display window. Later the headset was turned off and the cable disconnected. It was then it was noticed that •Bluetooth function had ceased •there was no input from the Bluetooth keyboard - since restored •sound was through the Mini's internal speaker only •the headset was not pairing with the Mini. Mini was checked with OnyX - no faults found, Mini rebooted. Solution(s)? [/QUOTE]
