X60s Bluetooth Headset with Skype

[kin514]

I have a X60s with Bluetooth... want to set it up with a Bluetooth headset to be used with Skype...

Can someone give me a step-by-step setup for me? I have been having problem setting things up and am pretty lost... Thanks in advance...

I use skype with a Motorola BT headset. In Skype go to Tools ---> Options ---> then click the sound devices tab. for the options, audio in, and out choose Bluetooth audio. and it should work great. I am able to play music through the laptop speakers while talking with skype.

Thanks Jason... but the problem is that I couldn't get my Headset to work as "Bluetooth audio"... I simply don't have the option in my Skype...

What bluetooth driver do you have? The default driver I have on my X60s doesn't allow me to set up my headset as "Bluetooth audio"...

Do you remember how you get it up in the first place?

I believe I am using the newest driver from lenovo dated 9-14-06

That allows me to use my earpiece as a headset. when I am home this evening I will have a look and tell you exactly what I have going on to get it to work. As I remember once I turned the bluetooth on using the FnF5 it installed all the bluetooth audio drivers and stuff and I had that option in skype.

kin514,

I am using the driver that installed itself the first time I turned on the Bluetooth on my X60s, it's version 4.0.1.3000 by WIDCOMM. My headset is a Logitech Mobile Pro II - the one with the guy in the pink shirt on the package (*)... I've set it all up in under a minute without any problems... I use it both with my mobile phone and Skype, although unfortunately not simultaneously (a limitation of Bluetooth itself).

Have a look at this thread at Skype's forum - http://forum.skype.com/index.php?s=fa63 ... opic=10822

Basically, all Bluetooth 1.2 headsets should work fine with X60/X60s built-in Bluetooth regardless of the driver version. Have a look at the above thread in case you have similar problems.

(*) - so you're wondering why I mentioned the guy in the pink shirt - well (at least here in Europe) the packaging doesn't specifically say it's a Logitech Mobile Pro II, it only says Mobile Pro, so you have to look at the colour of the guy's shirt. Pink(ish) means it's a revised version with better sound quality and some issues solved... Blue shirt means Logitech Mobile Pro (version 1), so pay attention in case you run into some old stock.
