Default Can't disable bluetooth - 06-19-2009, 07:25 AM

Hi,

I need help. I just finished installing Leopard on my Dell mini 9 and it works well, but one thing. My bluetooth is alway on and I can not disable it. If I open the bluetooth preference the on/off box is ticked and can not be changed.
Is there anybody who has the same problem and can do something about it?

Donnie

This is best mod I found to get it to work. If you bought the bluetooth with your system it should work.

follow the thread by hussainx. It's bit complicated but it works really well.

Good luck~

I want to second that. I did the mod and it is working great. (I needed it off simply to comply with the airline rules, since I work for a private airline, it can get awkward if I am not complying with the same rules I am told to enforce.)

This bluetooth fix, and the two finger scroll drivers with the auto installer makes this this hackintosh almost complete.
