When I turn on my bluetooth in ubuntu 12.04 it does not show any options for discovering devices or any bluetooth functions.

What should I do to show these options? enter image description here

As you can see even though bluetooth is turn on(in status bar) no options are shown.

Run the Following command in the terminal..

sudo hciconfig hci0 reset

It should than turn ON the bluetooth.

If you are using laptop than try to turn it OFF and ON,using hardware switch. Usually done with Fn + Some function key depending on your laptop.

Also If this doesn't work than install Blueman Bluetooth Manager from Ubuntu Software Center.

Enjoy!!
