How to do that ?? in address book this funcktion exist but its gray (not possible use) any tips 😊

I can't offer you a solution, but you aren't the only one asking. I've seen the question before in this forum, and so far I haven't seen an answer. It works fine with less 'smart' phones such as the T610, T630, Z600 etc.

Has anyone seen it work with any Series 60 phone?

Swedish MacWorld claimed it works with N6600... I don't see why it wouldn't, but then I'm not too much into mobile hpone technology either.

You tried initiating the pairing from both the phone and from the computer? When clicking the Bluetooth icon, does it pop up a window asking you wich device to use?

The pairing itself works OK. I can send files in both directions.

If I start unconnected, enable Bluetooth at both ends, and then click the Bluetooth button in Address Book, it lights up blue. Hovering the mouse over the button shows "Connected <Sendo X>". If I create a new card, select "Card > Send This Card...", pick Sendo X from the list and click "Select" then the card arrives as a Bluetooth message. Despite all this, the "SMS Message" and "Dial With Sendo X" context menu entries are still greyed out.

Perhaps it is a question of profile support, where sending a Bluetooth message requires one profile but dialling and SMS messages require another?
