I have Tor running and connected on 12.0.0.7:9051 and I have adjusted the network settings for BTC-Qt to connect through SOCKS proxy at 12.0.0.7:9051 trying both v4 and v5 but it will not establish a connection to the BTC network. What could I be doing wrong?

IIRC if you use the Tor browser package it uses randomized ports and not 9051.

You have to set it to port 9051 by going to Settings - Advanced and deselecting the checkbox labeled Configure ControlPort automatically, this should fix your problem.
