No bluetooth device

[bettyboop]

It should work out of the box with the ath3k driver. It is even in the ubuntu certified hardware database https://certification.ubuntu.com/catalog...f3%3A3005/

What is the actual problem when you click on bluetooth in systemsettings? Does it say no device?  
Or is the adapter just turned off?
Is the device listed in lsusb? Or lspci?
Is the ath3k driver loaded? (lsmod command)

Thanks leszek for your quick reply ..

I enter bluetooth and it says: no adapters available
I have executed the commands and it returns this:
