HI Theresa,
Make sure all the Virtual ports have a tick alongside them. I ran into the
same trouble when setting up my old 6600. From the scenario you described, I
take it you are running PC Suite V 1.01?
Cheers,
Mark

Subject: [access-uk] Linking my Mobile Phone to my Computer via Bluetooth
Hi All
A few days ago I went to buy a cable to link my Nokia 6600 to my computer
and was told the shop didn't have a cable but a Bluetooth dongle would do
exactly the same job. However, having installed the software on my
computer, connected the Bluetooth dongle and tried to connect using the
serial port connection through Quick Connect in the system tray:- A
connection is made and I am prompted to accept it on the phone. I then get a
dialog that says (Error connecting Bluetooth Serial Port connection with
device Nokia 6600 and I have to choose OK. I then get an authorisation
message up on my computer and the only thing I can do is click on it as it
comes up in a balloon on the taskbar. I do that.
If I do the same thing through My Blootooth Places I am told that "The
Blootooth Serial Port connection failed. The connection could not be
completed" I have also had another message saying that the connection
failed because the phone terminated the connection.
If I try connecting to the computer from the phone, I'm told that the
computer does not support handheld devices, or something like that.
I've also seen a message in the Serial Port properties on the computer that
says that the device needs to be configured to use the same COM port that
the Serial Port is on - but I don't know how I know what my phone is
configured for.
Having spoken to a friend about this, she said that she had tried a couple
of Bluetooth dongles that worked once and never again, and similarly a cable
that was actually supplied with her phone. She bought another Bluetooth
dongle from PC World which has worked perfectly, although she doesn't know
what she did differently and certainly couldn't do it again!!!
Any ideas gratefully received!!!
