The Mint 17 Mate Release Notes state that bluetooth is not present at initial install. You can search for and install blueman via Synaptic Package Manager.

ok before i started this thread I downloaded bluedevil ...... should i get rid of that and do BlueMan instead ?

Bluedevil is for the KDE desktop. So it's fine if that is what you have. If not, yes, please remove it before you install Blueman.
