Can anybody show me the general steps to use bluetooth to synchronize my BlackBerry 8700 with my desktop computer?

Thanks a lot.

(On Handheld) Options>Bluetooth>Enable Bluetooth;Then Enable Discovery
(On Desktop, In Control Panel/System Preferences) Enable Bluetooth>Enable Discovery

On the Blackberry, check for new devices. Once you find the Computer, pair it (most of the time the password is 0000 (zeros)).

(In Desktop Manager/PM4) Options>Connection/Port>Change to Bluetooth Serial port

Try Synchronizing. If it fails, read the Bluetooth forum tips.

When I do this..... The option to enable Bluetooth is grayed out. Can't get past this. Any ideas? I have even un-installed and re-installed the software. I am running V4.1 on my BB and XP with SP2 on my desktop.

in another BB forum that discusses this, but basically, IIRC, this means that your laptop is not running the MS Bluetooth drivers, but is using a 3rd party BT driver. My Lenovo 3000 was doing the same thing. I have not been on this forum long enough to know if this question has been answered here or not. PM me and I will give you a URL if you cannot find the info here.
