Nokia PC Suite connection problems

4 replies · 9,695 views · Started 12 July 2003

Hi. I'm running Nokia PC Suite on Windows XP. I'm using Widcomm Bluetooth software to connect my 7650 to the PC.

I've had the phone about a month now, and have had no problems with the BT, but I want to use PC Suite. When I tried to connect for the first time a couple of days ago I got the following message:

This is the first time you have used PC Suite. Please attach your Nokia 7650 to the PC and press OK to continue, or press close to exit PC suite.

I then noticed my version of PC Suite wasn't compatible with XP, so I downloaded an updated version from the Nokia site. When I try to connect I get the same message. I can't for the life of me figure out the problem. mRouter is set to look at COM5 for my device, but it obviously isn't detecting it. Can anyone give me a hand? Thanks in advance.

In your BT manager in the systray right click it and select quick connect-blue tooth serial port-your phone.

You may get an error at first but then mRouter will spring to life.

If you still have no joy do a search - theres a long discussion on the subject 😊

Bugger, got another problem. I could connect when I first tried your solution, and my mRouter icon was flashing away like there was no tomorrow, but I now get an

'Error creating 'Bluetooth Serial Port' connection with device 'My Nokia' ' when I try to connect.

Any idea what the problem is?

Yeah, mine does that sometimes, I just re-boot and it clears.
Thou it's not happened since I put on the lateast software update from Belkin.

Perhaps look on you BT makers site for new software - or do a search here and theres a link somewhere for the latest WIDCOMM drivers which a lot of people say helped them

😊

Will.
