Blue-tooth is not working it is giving error like GDbus erro...
One solution to this i found is to install Blueman from app centre, but then I’ve two blue-tooth icons on indicator, i tried to remove the default blue-tooth but i can't, after removing is still shows up there.
I had the exact same problem, here is how i fixed it.
Blueman somehow fixes the default bluetooth manager (bluez), but u will have two bluetooth icons
Blueman has a plugin named AppIndicator that allows it to show in the system tray.
So all you need to do is remove the plugin's files (to hide blueman's tray icon) & use the default bluetooth manager (bluez) to transfer files:
sudo rm '/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/blueman/plugins/applet/AppIndicator.pyc'
sudo rm '/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/blueman/plugins/applet/AppIndicator.py'
Then restart/logout to see the results.
I removed blueman from start up applications..
How to add that back.

I suspect your bluetooth not working on 13.10 can be attributed to a bug in the latest kernel.
It can be fixed by installing a bazaar fork below:
