Why is it everytime i turn on my computer i have to tell PC Suite to use my Bluetooth connection to my phone. I select it and it works fine but when ive restarted the option is deselected again. its a pain in the Ar$e.....

Anyway have any clues????

Yeah it all works fine. Its just that it annoys me that when my computer starts up i have to tell it to use blue tooth again... gggrrrr

I had the same problem and after a lot of trial and error finally figured out what the cause was. I have an external USB bluetooth dongle which needs a bluetooth manager running to be able to use it.

The Bluetooth manager only ran after PCSuite was started. My guess is that PCSuite checks on startup if the bluetooth dongle is available. If not, it unchecks it.

Since I don't know how to change the startup order, I only changed that PC Suite does not autostart anymore. When the machine is completely rebooted, I start PC Suite and then bluetooth works.
