    I just received my new thinkpad today. When double-checking all of my configurations, I could not find bluetooth anywhere in the device manager. Is this where I should be looking? Please help a novice!

    Thanks in advance.

    It might be turned off , check the F keys on the top row of the keyboard for a blutooth icon, my acer has it on F3 but it can vary , press Fn and the F key to activate.
