Hi.

I have a MacBook White late 2008 (4,1) and I read that this model have Bluetooth but I don't have the icon to turn on the Bluetooth. It is possible that this model does not have bluetooth?

Thanks.

It has Bluetooth. Try restarting your Mac.

I have already do that. When I go to aditional information for bluetooth I have this:

Translation: Missing Information

It is possible to force to detect/install bluetooth?
If it was only the Bluetooth preference pane missing, that can be reinstalled. If it's not showing up in System Profiler, that indicates a possible hardware issue. I'd take it to Apple and let them check it out.
