Hi, I just bought a Bluetooth speaker for my PC & found the Bluetooth is not working on Windows 8.1. Does anyone know if there is a fix that works?

Thanks for the reply but I've already accessed the Bluetooth in PC & devices but it's not working (won't open). Says it's finding but never finds.
(Your PC is searching and can be discovered by Bluetooth devices)
I've managed to pair the speaker with the iPad, but the PC can't find even the iPad.0 -

Yes it's new & Bluetooth settings show yes in Allow Bluetooth devices to find this PC0

Some devices have a physical manual on/off switch for Wi-Fi or Bluetooth.0

Brand name and full model number of PC?0

I've found Bluetooth to always be a pain in proverbial on Windows PC's and it just got worse with 8.
You'll need to make sure you have the right drivers rather than Windows generic and pretty useless ones. Check your manufacturers website.0
