Hi,

When I connect my phone to the PC Suite, I get an error message saying, 'Error creating connection with mobile phone' Can someone give me a tutorial on how to connect it properly?

Thanks

1) Make sure you have the latest Bluetooth software from your Bluetooth device vendor (or use Windows XP SP2 and its built-in Bluetooth drivers, because they seem to be the easiest to get to work).

2) Pair the phone with the PC (and on the phone use the Bluetooth apps settings to set the PC as "authorized" for automatic connections). For detailed pairing instructions see the phone's User's Guide and the PC's Bluetooth software documentation.

3) Create a virtual serial (COM) port with the Bluetooth software (how you do it depends on whose Bluetooth software it is).

4) Install the latest 6600 PC Suite (from http://www.nokia.com/phones/6600).

5) In the Connection Manager/m-Router of PC Suite make sure the virtual serial port and Bluetooth is enabled for use.

6) Make the Bluetooth connection from the PC side.

7) Launch PC Suite.

If you use infrared, you can skip the Bluetooth parts, just make sure infrared is turned on in the phone and the PC and that the infrared ports are aligned.

If that's not enough, more details about what, exactly, you are doing and how is needed (and with what hardware & software & software versions).
