Bluetooth modem working on a Mac?

1 replies · 5,518 views · Started 28 April 2007

I recently upgraded from an N80 to N95 and I had a setup on my Mac where the Mac would use my N80 using GPRS as a bluetooth model. For some reason this same setup isn't working with my newly acquired N95

All I see is

Tue Apr 24 08:31:41 2007 : Failed to open /dev/cu.Bluetooth-Modem: Resource busy
Tue Apr 24 08:32:53 2007 : Nokia 3G CID1

and the system.log shows like this

Not that I have a solution - sorry - but I've moved from a 6680 to a N95 without a problem (on Vodafone UK). I presume that you have run the bluetooth setup assistant on the N95 and checked the box for internet usage? I'm using Ross Barkman's scripts from www.taniwha.org.uk and the modem as if it were a dialup rather than highspeed connection.
