Hello,
First some system details:

Problem Description:
I see two problems and would like to resolve both but initially focus on the shortes path to pairing my device, if possible.
1. GUI doesn't work the way I have seen it represented. I see the Bluetooth Manager icon in the system tray. When I mouse-over it a pop-up showing "Bluetooth Manager" appears. When I right-click on the icon I only get two menu options: Discoverable (with a checkbox) and About. The other options appear to be missing.
2. Pairing fails. I have a Bluetooth USB device installed and recognized but pairing simply doesn't work.

I hope I have provided enough information to troubleshoot. Please let me know if I have left anything out.
Thanks!
