Bluetooth syncing???
 

Hey guys I just got this new Vista computer with built in blue tooth. Is it really possible to sync? I tried and have had no success. BTW I am using Vista Ultimate.

just recently started to sync with vista and bluetooth as well, works great, never going back to usb!!...unless i have to...i even tether with bluetooth, beam files, and use it as audio gateway for skype as it doesnt work on xv6800 for some reason... i use widcomm drivers and had a hard time setting up but eventually after trying different ones and updating drivers from website works great, all the time from anywhere in my house...great speeds too...

is there something special i need to do? when my phone saw the computer it only came up with speaker settings. i tried setting the sync to bluetooth but it would not recognize it. any hints or tutorial?

You can sync with bluetooth, but its a lot slower than with USB. Add your pc to your mogul's bluetooth devices. Then open activesync on the mogul, and hit options, and then sync via bluetooth. That should be it.

many thanks again. i got it to work and I love it. it wasn't as slow as i expected. seemed just as fast to me actually.

Re: Bluetooth syncing???
 

yeah i agree mine seems even faster as i dont have to wait for the initial connection that usb has...my bluetooth connects almost instantaneously...

Yeah I started this process with the treo 755p. I have a Sony Vaio, and everytime I wanted to sync with that phone I HAD to open up my bluetooth manager click on the com ports and once the computer showed the com ports that it was using through bluetooth then I was able to sync. With the mogul, I paired my laptop with phone, opened up active sync on my phone, hit options then connect through bluetooth as arparent said, open up windows mobile device center on pc and hit sync on phone. Voila, bluetooth syncing. This method is great for me because now I have the freedom to sync WHENEVER I want. I don't have to make sure I have my cable in order to sync.

I'm using a usb bluetooth adapter, probably why mine is slower.

I've been trying this all day... My phone is paired w/computer, but I keep getting a message my phone "cannot find a partnership with a pc that supports active sync". I'm guessing that's because my computer has Windows Mobile Device Center and Sync Center. Suggestions???

on your ppc go tot start then programs, then activesync.
in the activesync window, click on menu in the lowe right and choose connect via bluetooth.

If that doesn't work, go to start, settings and pick the connections tab and choose bluetooth. Do you see your pc listed in the box or does it just say "add a new device"?

go to the next tab "mode" and make sure bluetooth is turned on and the checkbox "make this device visible to other devices" is checked.

Once you do that go back into activesync on your ppc and choose the sync via bluetooth again and see what happens.
