6600 and Bluetooth

Hi dudes and dudetts!

Hi,

i got a BT unit for the USB port. It works fine but i can only send a jpg picture to the PC. The Nokia PC Suite software does not find the phone. Neither can i send files to the phone either.

Dont know what is wrong.

Anyone have any ideas of how to configure the phone or the software in the PC?

Regards,

It seems that the (*) indicator on my phone is only working for 2-4 seconds. When i want to send a file to my phone it tells me it cant find the File Transfer service on my Nokia 6600. And that it cant connect to the "Remote Device".

Please help.

regards,

Have you "Paired" the device and left both on discoverable? Sometimes this is overlooked but often helps maintain the connection.

If i'm wait don;t shoot! i don't have the phone yet but by Tuesday i should and i will have a look.

Yes it is Paired, but how do you leave it on discoverable?

not sure it was something on my T68 but it must be a setting on there somewhere because it will need to link to headsets and the like....can anybody else shed any more light on this?

Do you have any "services" on your T68?
By the way, when i connect to my PC, the phone says ("Handsfreepro" cant be used for connection to "my machine")?

Don't know what you mean by services, i try not to use my t68 for anything other than calling because it is now so slow and restarting and corrupting it is no use. So sorry, thats why i am getting a 6600!

Ok, sorry to hear that, but I can tell you. The Nokia is great. The only thing I need to get used to is the size. It is actually when I right click a file on my pc E.g. a background pic, and choose "SendTo - Bluetooth - Nokia6600" it tries to send it but it then states that it cant find the file transfer service on the phone and a second after that the (*) disappears. (*)=you have BT connection.

Have you tried using the InfraRed, it might want that as the File Transfer port like my t68 does. But i know boss had similar problems witht his 6310i but its sorted now, i shall ask him see what he did.

The thing is i only have a USB 1.1 BT adaptor and no IR. SInce i can send file from the phone but not to the phone (du to these pesky services that should be up and running on my phone) it must be a config thing with the phone.
It seems i can talk BT with the phone and also send file from the phone but using Nokia PC Suite or sending files to the phone just dot seem to work.
