Teil 1: Anfangen

1.1 Erstinstallation und Konfiguration

Die Grundlagen

1.1.1 Kaufen Hosting

Whilst you can get a free Word­Press site from wordpress.com, you lose some con­trol and you have to serve their ads. I per­son­ally advise obtain­ing your own host­ing. Es gibt viele Hosts gibt, and which is most suit­able will depends on your require­ments and pref­er­ences. In the past I have hos­ted my own sites (z.B. jonscaife.com), I’ve used NearlyFreeSpeech.net for some sites (z.B. Premiership-Predictors.co.uk), and for this site I’m cur­rently using TSO­Host. You should find a pack­age that suits you. If you’re a begin­ner, I recom­mend find­ing a host which offers a con­trol pan­el that includes auto­mated install­a­tion of word­press (z.B. via softacu­lous) as TSO­Host does.

1.1.2 Kaufen Sie eine Domain

I strongly recom­mend hav­ing a domain name for your site. An appro­pri­ate domain is cheap, looks more pro­fes­sion­al and helps DIESE. The easi­est meth­od is to buy this at the same time as your host­ing. I’ve used low-cost-names in the past, but recently I’ve bought most of mine from 123-reg. This should be a straight-for­ward pro­cess. If you choose a domain that does­n’t end in .com then con­sider buy­ing the .com as well (see sec­tion 1.4.13). Also think care­fully about how long you buy the domain for — longer is bet­ter (see sec­tion 2.1.13)

1.1.3 Richten Sie Ihre Domain auf Ihr Hosting

Sobald Sie einen Domain-Namen, you need to point it to your host­ing. If you’ve bought your host­ing and domain with the same pro­vider this has prob­ably already been done for you. Wenn nicht, müssen Sie bearbeiten die DNS entry for your domain name and point it to the Name Serv­ers of your host­ing pro­vider. You host­ing pro­vider will tell you what these are. You will usu­ally want to change the nameserv­ers — for example — as my host­ing is with TSO­Host I have my name serv­ers set to ns2.tsohost.co.uk and ns1.tsohost.co.uk

1.1.4 Wordpress-up Set

Once you have both host­ing and a domain name you need to set up word­press on your host­ing. Ideally this will be done via a con­trol pan­el man­ager like softacu­lous or fant­ast­ico and should take just a few clicks. If you don’t have that option you need to do a manu­al install­a­tion. There is an excel­lent guide to manu­al installs on liquid­web. Once you’ve got word­press installed, log in to your word­press dash­board via the fol­low­ing web address: https://<your.domain>/wp-admin /

1.1.5 Holen Sie sich ein eigenes Thema

You don’t want your site to look like a mil­lion and 1 oth­er word­press sites, so you will want an altern­at­ive theme. Es gibt viele freie Themen avail­able — for example, when this art­icle was ori­gin­ally pub­lished we were using the mys­tique theme.  Since that time we’ve moved to a cus­tom theme inspired by mys­tique and built on the respons­ive ver­sion of the Knochen Starter Thema. Ideally you will want to con­sider a cus­tom theme, aber für diese müssen Sie entweder zu zahlen, or invest con­sid­er­able time devel­op­ing your own. Once your site is up and run­ning you can invest­ig­ate cus­tom themes. Word­Press has a very help­ful guide to devel­op­ing themes, but I recom­mend using some of the free “blank”, “bare-bones”, “naked”, “frame­work”, or “tem­plate” themes avail­able. These can get you star­ted on a cus­tom theme much faster, and many offer an excel­lent level of com­pat­ib­il­ity and fea­tures built-in. I recom­mend look­ing for (or cre­at­ing) Themen auf der Grundlage HTML5 und CSS3, and with sup­port for microformats/microdata/rich snip­pets included. It is also worth hav­ing a theme which is “respons­ive” — i.e. it can adapt to lots of res­ol­u­tions effect­ively — so it will dis­play on mobile devices cor­rectly. There is extens­ive cov­er­age of such themes else­where which I won’t duplic­ate here, for more inform­a­tion start by look­ing at WP May­or, Design-Shack, Specky­Boy, Smash­ing Magas­ine oder Specky­Boy (wieder).

If you decide to cus­tom­ise or devel­op a theme then I strongly recom­mend using HTML5.   This is a much more semant­ic lan­guage than pre­vi­ous ver­sions and intro­duces new tags which have much more sens­ible names than all the “div” tags that design­ers used to use.  Find out about tags like <sec­tion>, <art­icle>, <head­er>, <foot­er>, <nicht>, <sec­tion>, und <sum­mary on w3schools

1.1.6 Test & bestätigen Sie Ihre Website

Sobald Ihre Website ist bereit zu gehen, verwenden Sie die W3C val­id­at­ors für html, css, Atom / rss und mobile friend­li­ness, Benutzen Sie die Google rich snip­pets test­ing tool um Ihre Mikrodaten testen, and con­sider check­ing the access­ib­il­ity of your site. Es gibt many ser­vices out there that will run mul­tiple browser tests and send you back images to veri­fy that your page will render cor­rectly in the huge range of web browsers out there. Use the power­ful fire­bug browser plu­gin to debug any issues you find.

You can sub­scribe to DIY­Medi­aHome in many ways.  Most are dir­ectly linked from the menu at the top right and include an RSS Futter, Seiten auf Face­book und Google+ und twit­ter feed.  You can also sub­scribe to any com­ment threads you reply to by tick­ing the option when writ­ing the reply.  If you would like to sub­scribe by e‑mail you can use the form below.  Finally — if you use a dif­fer­ent plat­form or site that you think we should be on then [int­link id=“2980” type=“page”]Sie Kontakt[/intlink] and we’ll see what we can do.  Thanks.

Willkommen im Bluetooth-Führer

This guide has blos­somed from a simple begin­ning to become the ‘net’s most extens­ive resource for Bluetooth help & inform­a­tion. Über 100 dif­fer­ent USB Dongles, PC Cards and laptop mod­els have now been suc­cess­fully setup with this guide. After fol­low­ing this guide you should be able to estab­lish com­mu­nic­a­tion between your PC and any Bluetooth 1.1 com­pli­ant device. Über 50 devices have already been suc­cess­fully tested.

Anmerkung: Dieser Leitfaden wurde zuletzt aktualisiert in 2005! Links to the patch­er util­ity have been removed due to the threat of leg­al action by Broad­com Corp. The patch­er was ori­gin­ally released on GSM-For­um and I believe cop­ies of it may still be found there. To the best of my know­ledge the patch­er has­n’t been updated in a long time. This guide was writ­ten for a ver­sion of the Bluetooth drivers which are now very old. It was also writ­ten with Win­dows XP in mind and may not work with Win­dows Vista or Win­dows 7.

Wer ist dieser Leitfaden für

The pur­pose of this guide is to take you through a step by step pro­cess, at the end of which you should be able to estab­lish com­mu­nic­a­tion between your PC and any Bluetooth enabled device. This guide is based on the Wid­comm Bluetooth suite which only runs on Microsoft Win­dows. If you use a dif­fer­ent sys­tem, zB MacOS oder Linux / Unix, this guide will not be able to provide you with a com­plete solu­tion but much of the inform­a­tion should be use­ful to you. I do not provide any kind of guar­an­tee that this will work for every single case, it is a free resource of inform­a­tion, und existiert nur, um zu versuchen, Menschen zu helfen.

Bluetooth Personal Area Networks

The Bluetooth spe­cific­a­tion sup­ports the use of Bluetooth for net­work­ing between devices.
Wenn Sie einen PC mit einem Bluetooth-Adapter und ein Bluetooth-fähigen PDA, Laptop,
or oth­er device that sup­por­ted net­work­ing, you should use the fol­low­ing inform­a­tion to set up a net­work connection.
Net­work con­nec­tions between a PC and anoth­er device can be used for file and print shar­ing, and also for Inter­net access.
A typ­ic­al example of a Bluetooth PAN would be if you have a Bluetooth enabled desktop PC with broad­band access,
and a laptop with Bluetooth sup­port you can turn your desktop PC into a W.A.P. (wire­less access point)
and use the Inter­net access on your laptop without a need for wires.

The setup of a Bluetooth PAN is depend­ent upon your exist­ing con­fig­ur­a­tion, below are sev­er­al options…

• Bluetooth net­work­ing for file and print shar­ing only
• Provid­ing Inter­net access to anoth­er device from a PC with a dir­ect Inter­net connection
• Provid­ing Inter­net access to anoth­er device from a PC that has Inter­net access through anoth­er net­work (z.B. a cor­por­ate LAN)

If you need more detailed or spe­cif­ic inform­a­tion than I have provided, there are some oth­er excel­lent guides for spe­cif­ic plat­forms available

• Wenn Sie einen Palm, Sie können zu Whizoo.com gehen
• Wenn Sie ein iPaq, Sie können zu PC-Counselor.com gehen
• If you are net­work­ing between 2 PC’s there is more inform­a­tion avail­able at GeekZone.co.nz

Die Microsoft Intelli-Treiber Einander

Many people have advised me to avoid Intel­li­Type 5.0 and Intel­li­Point 5.0 Treiber wie die Pest. Unfor­tu­nately, Installation der Intelli-Treiber von der Microsoft- CD wird Microsoft Bluetooth-Treiber installieren, which break the Wid­comm driver install­a­tion. Without the Intelli drivers you will not be able to use the extra but­tons on your key­board or mouse. The solu­tion? Installieren Sie eine ältere Intelli-Treiber! All the oth­er wire­less key­boards and mice pro­duced by Microsoft have the same or very sim­il­ar addi­tion­al keys to the Bluetooth mouse and keyboard.

Laptop’s with Proprietary Software

Some laptops require their own soft­ware installed as well as the Wid­comm drivers. Toshiba, and Sony both pro­duce Bluetooth enabled laptops that have a soft­ware “switch” to dis­able or enable Bluetooth. If your device isn’t detec­ted after the main install­a­tion you may need to install the ori­gin­al software.

Installing Toshiba’s proprietary Bluetooth software

• Down­load the Toshiba Bluetooth Mon­it­or soft­ware from Toshiba 4.18 Mb
• Extract the Toshiba soft­ware to a tem­por­ary folder and copy the fol­low­ing files to the fol­low­ing locations:

• Open “Device Man­ager”, and unin­stall all of the Toshiba Bluetooth Devices which can be found in the “Bluetooth”, “USB”, “Ports”, and “Net­work” sections.
• Use “Add/Remove Pro­grams” to unin­stall the Toshiba Bluetooth software
• Reboot
• Run C:\Toshiba MS_Bluetooth BtMonInst.exe
• Right click on the Bluetooth Mon­it­or in the sys­tem tray, and select “Power > ON”
• Win­dows should now install Devices. Your Bluetooth Sys­tem Tray should turn white.

If the sys­tem tray does­n’t turn blue and white you may still have a Toshiba / Microsoft-Treiber installiert. You should read the Manu­al Install section.

Manuelle Installation

Manuelle Treiber-Installation

The manu­al driver install­a­tion should only be attemp­ted after the Wid­comm soft­ware has been installed. The descrip­tion below describes how to replace the Microsoft driver with the Wid­comm driver. If the Microsoft driver isn’t present you will not be able to com­plete the fol­low­ing pro­ced­ure. If you have a PC Card you should have already read the PC Cards sec­tion. The meth­od for doing a manu­al driver update is dif­fer­ent on dif­fer­ent ver­sions of Win­dows, please use the pro­ced­ure that cor­res­ponds to your ver­sion of Windows

Windows XP / 2003 Zwangs Manuelle Treiberinstallation

1. Open the sys­tem con­trol pan­el, and in the “Hard­ware” tab, and click on “Device Manager”

Down­load it from the [int­link id=“741” type=“page”]Downloads[/intlink] page and save it to the main install­a­tion folder (C:\Drivers WIN BDCACT ). If you have a ver­sion 2 Karte, I do not cur­rently know a meth­od of installing these. A firm­ware update may be possible.

Neu USB Geräte

Meine USB Device wasn’t found…

Jeden USB Vorrichtung eine VID (Vendor I.D.) und PID- (Produkt ID.). If your device was­n’t found it is pos­sible that it’s ID is not lis­ted in the Wid­comm driver. The Wid­comm drivers will only install for devices they recog­nise, and they recog­nise devices based on their VID and PID. The install­a­tion file btwusb.inf con­tains a list of USB VIDs and PIDs that the drivers will recog­nise. Alle USB devices will work with the Wid­comm stack, but the ID’s for some of them are not included with the drivers. Wenn Ihr Gerät nicht enthalten müssen Sie es hinzufügen.

The major­ity of note­books / laptops with intern­al Bluetooth use an intern­al USB solu­tion. If you have a note­book / laptop and are exper­i­en­cing prob­lems get­ting the driver work­ing, you should read this sec­tion, even if you don’t have an actu­al USB Dongle stecker.

Wie man die VID und PID eines Geräts finden

This meth­od will enable you to find the VID and PID for your USB Bluetooth hard­ware before it has a driver installed.

• Con­nect your Bluetooth dongle, and let Win­dows add it as an “Unknown device”
• Open “sys­tem inform­a­tion” from start/programs/accessories/system tools/system information
• Expand “Com­pon­ents”
• Select “USB”
• Loc­ate the device in the list
• It will have an ID in the fol­low­ing form: USB\VID_xxxx&PID_YYYY ZZZZZZZZZZZZZ
• Notieren Sie sich die VID (die XXXX) und der PID (die YYYY)

Wie Sie Ihre Treiber mit der VID und PID aktualisieren Sie Ihre USB Dongle

This ser­vice is no longer func­tion­al, Es tut uns leid

• Füllen Sie das untenstehende Formular mit den Details Ihres Geräts.
• After you have suc­cess­fully sub­mit­ted your device details, Rechtsklick >here and select “save tar­get as”.
• Save the file into the install­a­tion dir­ect­ory (C:\Drivers WIN BDCACT ). Over­write the old file.
• Entfernen Sie Ihre USB Dongle.
• Restart Win­dows.
• Setzen Sie den Dongle.
• If Win­dows prompts you for a driver, verweisen Sie auf C:\Drivers WIN BDCACT
• If you are not promp­ted for a driver and the sys­tem tray icon remains red you may need to start the install­a­tion pro­ced­ure again from the begin­ning using the new file.

Deinstallation

So deinstallieren Widcomm Treiber

The Wid­comm drivers should have a nor­mal add/remove option in the con­trol pan­el, regard­less of who sup­plied them. If your install­a­tion has become dam­aged, and for some reas­on you can­not use the nor­mal unin­stall­a­tion meth­od, the details below should help you remove the Wid­comm drivers from your system.

Der Ablauf

• Make a back-up of your sys­tem registry
• Run “regsvr32 ‑u BtNeighborhood.dll”
• Run “btstackserver.exe /unregserver”
• Run reged­it and delete the WIDCOMM key from HKEY_CURRENT_USER and HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
• Delete “bt*.dll”, “btcpl.cpl”, and “bt*.manifest” from your sys­tem folder (this var­ies depend­ing on which ver­sion of Win­dows you are using)

F.A.Q.

Windows didn’t find a driver for my device

There are sev­er­al pos­sible causes of this problem.

1. Die VID und PID des Geräts sind nicht in der Datei btwusb.inf. Have a look at the VID and PID list page for more information.

2. You have a “Microsoft Driver” Infec­tion. Have a read of the Manu­al Driver Install­a­tion page

3. Ihr Gerät ist defekt. Try the ori­gin­al driver that came with the device. If that fails then you need a new piece of hardware.

4. Sie verwenden keine USB Dongle. I’m not quite sure yet how these work, können Probleme auftreten. [int­link id=“1326” type=“page”]In Kontakt kommen[/intlink] mit mir.

I can’t customise the buttons on my Wireless IntelliMouse Explorer for Bluetooth

See the Microsoft Input sec­tion of the Driver Install­a­tion page.

I get the error “There was a problem installing this hardware. Ein Fehler aufgetreten ist während der Installation dieser Vorrichtung. The required section was not found in the inf”

If you are con­nec­ted to the Inter­net, Win­dows will some­times try to update your driver from Win­dowsUp­date online. Make sure you are dis­con­nec­ted from the ‘net and try again. You may need to do a manu­al driver installation.

I get the error “There was a problem installing this hardware. Ein Fehler aufgetreten ist während der Installation dieser Vorrichtung. The system cannot find the file specified”

Try dis­con­nect­ing from the Inter­net (wie oben beschrieben). You may need to do a manu­al driver installation.

Mein Nokia-Handy wird nicht verbinden oder trennen hält

You may not have new enough firm­ware. This is a par­tic­u­larly com­mon prob­lem with the Nokia 6310i. You need to read the Nokia firm­ware inform­a­tion page. If your soft­ware is try­ing to con­nect on “COM0” you need to change the set­tings (see ques­tion: The driver install­a­tion works cor­rectly, but when I try to use the seri­al port ser­vice it tries to con­nect on “COM0” and fails)

Die Treiberinstallation fragt nach einem licence.dat

Either your down­load and extrac­tion of the drivers was cor­rup­ted, or you have not run the .reg file included with the patched files pri­or to run­ning the main setup. You can try point­ing the request to “C:\Drivers\Win\Bdcact” (where you extrac­ted the IBM drivers), but it is prob­ably bet­ter to start the guide again from the beginning.

Ich bin mit bluetooth meinen PC meines Handy zu verbinden, so dass ich mein Telefon benutzen kann auf das Internet zugreifen. Internetzugang scheint sehr langsam

First gen­er­a­tion Bluetooth sup­ports 1Mbit con­nec­tions which is twice as fast as most broad­band Inter­net con­nec­tions. Second gen­er­a­tion Bluetooth devices should work at up to 2Mbits. The prob­lem is with the mobile phone, nicht Bluetooth. Many phones only sup­port 9.6.KBit. Die meisten arbeiten nicht schneller als 28.8KBit. You’ll have to wait for 3G net­works for fast Inter­net access through your mobile.

Eveything works but I get an icon in the system tray that says “Bluetooth Network — A Network Cable Is Unplugged”

This is nor­mal. The bluetooth drivers install sup­port for net­work­ing. If the icon both­ers you then open the “Net­work Con­nec­tions” folder and dis­able the “Bluetooth Net­work” connection.

My Dial-up and Fax Services don’t work after I have installed Bluetooth on Windows 2000 / XP / 2003 System

You need to unin­stall and rein­stall the Fax and Dial-Up ser­vices. This can be done in add/remove programs/windows com­pon­ents, BUT by default many of the win­dows com­pon­ents are hid­den, includ­ing the Fax and DUN ser­vices. To show ALL of the win­dows com­pon­ents that can be selec­ted you need to carry out the fol­low­ing procedure:

• Open note­pad or a sim­il­ar text editor
• Öffnen Sie die Datei C:\Windows\inf\sysoc.inf
• Führen Sie eine Suche und ersetzen, und ersetzen ‚hide, mit „
• Speichern sysoc.inf

Bitte beachten Sie,: Some of the com­pon­ents take a long time to “untick” after you click on them. When you deselect the com­pon­ents you wish to rein­stall you will have to wait 10–15 seconds and then move the scroll­bar at the right hand side, and the tick should disappear.

My Sony-Ericsson R520m hält Bluetooth deaktivieren

I believe this is a prob­lem with the R520m, which will hope­fully be fixed with new firm­ware. I recom­mend con­tact­ing Sony-Eric­sson if you exper­i­ence this prob­lem. Until a firm­ware update becomes avail­able you can try switch­ing the phone off and back on, or using the “Mas­ter Reset” option.

Ich versuche, einen Compaq Multiport mit einer Microsoft-Maus zu verwenden, und die Reaktionszeit ist sehr langsam

This is a firm­ware issue. Com­paq don’t cur­rently sup­ply updated firm­ware, but it can be resolved by flash­ing the Mul­ti­port with the firm­ware update from TDK for their USB BT-Adapter

Under the “Cli­ent Applic­a­tions” tab click on “Add COM Port” and fol­low the steps. The names you use for the ser­vices do not mat­ter. Use this port instead of the default port.

There are known firm­ware issues with the D‑Link dongles. Down­load an updated firm­ware from the [int­link id=“741” type=“page”]Downloads[/intlink] page and use the Firm­ware update pro­gram included with the Wid­comm drivers to update your dongle.

I get the following error: “no local bluetooth device detected”

You must manu­ally check that ALL of the fol­low­ing drivers have been updated the the ver­sion that you have installed. Check the fol­low­ing devices in device man­ager: das Bluetooth-Gerät selbst, Alle Bluetooth-COM-Ports (there are usu­ally 2 von diesen), bluetooth net­work “card”, Bluetooth Audio

Die MRouter Software sieht keine bekannte oder unbekannte Geräte und refresh hat keine Auswirkung

Die Datei Patcher

The file patch­er patches 3 Dateien: wbtapi.dll, bttray.exe und BTStackServer.exe. It car­ries out the same 2 oper­a­tions on each file. Doing this enables the soft­ware to work with Win­dows 2003, and also enables the soft­ware to work with all devices. Für die IBM-Treiber die 2 Änderungen sind wie folgt:
Die Hex-String 3B F5 75 0E 3B FD 75 0A wird ersetzt durch 3B F5 90 90 3B FD 90 90

The strings dif­fer between ver­sions but are usu­ally quite sim­il­ar, and using wild­cards the new patch­er can patch most versions.

Nokia Bluetooth Handys: Firmware-Updates häufig erforderlich!

Sev­er­al Nokia phones require firm­ware updates before they will sup­port Bluetooth cor­rectly. You can check your firm­ware revi­sion by typ­ing *#0000# on the phone’s keypad.

Mindestens erforderliche Firmware-Versionen

Nokia 6310i: 5.50

Nokia 6230: 3.15

You can take your phone to a Nokia licensed repair shop and they will update the firm­ware for you for free as long as the phone is still with­in its Nokia war­ranty peri­od. Seien Sie gewarnt, dass ich zumindest kenne 1 case where a firm­ware update has caused the loss of all per­son­al­ised inform­a­tion stored on the phone. I strongly advise that you make a copy of any import­ant data from your phone before hav­ing it updated.

USB Geräte-Firmware

Sev­er­al people have asked about firm­ware updates for USB Bluetooth-Geräte. Wid­comm used to sup­ply an updated firm­ware with their drivers, but new­er ver­sions have not come with an update. I have a gen­er­ic CSR Firm­ware that you can down­load if you think you NEED it. Es ist datiert 31^st-März 2004, and includes CSR’s HID sup­port that allows the use of Bluetooth Key­boards and Mice before the OS geladen (for example allows the use of a Bluetooth key­board to modi­fy BIOS Optionen). The Wid­comm drivers are sup­plied with a firm­ware update util­ity for most devices, includ­ing CSR devices.
