state is poweredOff #38

Closed skrichten closed 8 years ago

skrichten commented 8 years ago

Apologies for this (probably) silly question. I am new to bluetooth. I'm trying to get started using this library on Mac OSX (10.9.5) on a 2013 macbook pro 13". Simply trying to bleacon.startScanning() for devices. I get the error that "state is poweredOff". Bluetooth is turned on and I can see it lists my iphone as a device, so it seems to be up and working properly. What am I missing?

Nevermind... Its actually a 2011 model so it doesn't have bluetooth 4.0 :(
