I'm trying to generate the bluetooth registry files for Windows and Hackintool only seems to be detecting only a couple of devices and not all devices.

It's not generating output for my keyboard and mouse, but generating output for my AirPods Pro, my MacBook Pro (which is iCloud Sync'd), my Apple Watch, etc.

I'm using Hackintool 4.0.3 on Sonoma 14.5.

Same. Using Monterey 12.7.5

It will do one of the following:

  • do nothing (ask permission and then not output any file)
  • output only my old apple keyboard

I can't get my new keyboard (BLE) or headphones (Sony) or JBL3 speaker, nor my android phones to export.

I experienced a similar issue just now on Monterey 12.7.5, no file output after password dialog.

If it shows the standard app password dialog, it will not output a .reg file on the desktop.

I had to turn off and turn back on the bluetooth switch on the macOS menu bar in order for it to see the new BT keys after connecting a new device.

you will get a different system prompt where you must enter both login/pass for what seems to be each individual device/bt-key you have registered, and it will then produce the .reg file succesfully with all the keys.

I tried with one device registered, and it asked for login/pass once, and produced a file with one bt-key.

I tried with two devices registered, and it asked for login/pass twice, and produced a file with two bt-keys.

Apple may have changed something relating to BT key storage in the latest update, as it was not an issue on 12.7.3 or .4 as far as I recall.

I encountered the same issue on my Sonoma 14.4.1. Based on my testing, you can obtain partial information about the Bluetooth device by disconnecting it and then using Hackintool. However, I was only able to retrieve the IRK and some other information for my Bluetooth mouse, but I did not obtain the LTK, which I also need.

However, I was only able to retrieve the IRK and some other information for my Bluetooth mouse, but I did not obtain the LTK, which I also need.

perhaps this is why i have been experiencing issues importing the .reg keys into windows from Monterey 12.7.x lately.

I can successfully connect items in macOS, generate keys for them, and then import them properly and verify that they remain saved in the win10 registry... but bluetooth devices don't connect via importing keys.

I've done this countless times before and it worked well, but along the way it stopped working after a Monterey update. Not sure what changed.
