i have a problem pairing atheros 3012 bluetooth 4.0 H.S. with sony nzw ws610 (bluetooth headphone) My pc isnt finding this headset but my android finds it easily. All three devices are bluetooth 4.0
 
Reset the headset. Some headsets allow pairing to only one device at a time.
If this is the case and it's already paired to your smartphone, it won't pair with another device.
Follow instructions that came with the headset about how to reset it, in Nokia headsets, you usually have to press and hold a button until a red LED flashes. After you reset, pair with the computer straightaway, not with the smartphone.
 
thanx lumia..I fixed it. The problem was much more complicated tho. I made several stupid mistakes.

1. I accidently installed a motorola bluetooth driver (that was just dumb..real dumb)
2. even when I deleted the driver, the residue was still left so I had to get int service.msc and disable motorola bluetooth
3. I didnt know pressing it for 7 seconds activates the bluetooth discovery mode because the pairing the buds with my android was so easy.

All in all, the sony nzw ws613 is a great earbud. It has internal memory to serve as a standalone mp3 player. It has bluetooth 4.0 and supports varieties of popular audio codecs. It is also waterproof. The only down side is the mediocre sound. But overall, I recommend this to any non-audiophile!!
