Problems using Sony Bluetooth Mouse with Vaio Laptop

[shanwar66]

Hi

I just bought a Sony Bluetooth Mouse (VGP-BMS30) to use with my Vaio Laptop A215z, which already has bluetooth built-in. I can initially connect the mouse to the computer, however after i reboot/shut down the laptop and restart it, it does not recognize the mouse, even though the bluetooth switch is on. What i have to do then is remove the mouse from the bluetooth list, and then 'add' the bluetooth mouse again. Is this normal? i was previously using the Logitech MX900 bluetooth mouse, with that i paired the mouse and computer just the ONCE, and from then on they both recognized each other without having to re-connect everytime i boot up windows. I think all my settings are correct; i am using Win XP SP2, no firewall, no other wireless devices nearby etc. Oh one other thing: i bought my laptop from UK but the Sony mouse was bought from the USA...could this make any difference?

Thanks in advance.

Hi,

Just wanted to say that I've got the same mouse but a different laptop AR-serie and I don't have the problem here.

I believe that you can re-connect the mouse by just pressing the mouse buttons. Simply full arroud the mouse over the table don't gives any result.

no matter what I do after I restarted my machine, the mouse doesn't reconnect by itself. I have also tried to wait, and fiddel only with the left and right button, but no succes. Is there a sw I need to have to get this working?

I have not done any special thing to get mine working - worked right away. I connects automatically even if I turn off the mouse or put new batteries in it it connects right away.
