New Macbook does not support bluetooth in Bootcamp

[Mattsasa]

I have the 12" MacBook and I just found out that it does not support bluetooth in bootcamp.

Anyone think appple will eventually get around to releasing a bluetooth windows driver for it?

This is very surprising and unfortunate for me,
I am going to have to return my 12" MacBook

Maybe you should adjust the title of the topic?
Most likely Apple will eventually release a bootcamp update.

That is surprising that they don't have a Bluetooth driver- but I do think that Boot Camp has always been a second-class citizen as far as Macs are concerned. They may update it eventually, but it's kind of a niche at this point.

hmm seems weird... they wouldn't add the drives to work with it. The best windows boxes are macs.

Very common and known issue. I have tried this solution and it works fine for me. The idea is actually to use other laptop manufacturer's Bluetooth suite.

I have tried this on bootcamp win 7, MacBook alu unibody 2008.

Thats a solution from 2009. Are you implying that Apple has not resolved this in the last 6 years?
