Does this Model have Bluetooth Capability ? I see the Bluetooth in the settings but it does not give me the option to turn it on.

Its specs

It does NOT have Bluetooth. It was built around 2012, therefore you have to use RIGHT part. You can try the following options

 

  • Atheros 9485GN 802.11b/g/n 1×1 WiFi and 3012 Bluetooth 4.0 Combo Adapter part # 655795-001
  • Atheros WB225 802.11b/g/n 1×1 Bluetooth Combo Adapter part # 675794-001
  • Broadcom 4313GN 802.11b/g/n 1×1 WiFi and 20702 Bluetooth 4.0 Combo Adapter  part # 657325-001

Or using BT dongle (much simpler and I know it works)

There are many brands and models around, cheaper too.
