Re: Bluetooth sync with ActiveSync FRESHLY installed

You should be able to check the BT management software on the PC and see
what comm port is an available BT port. If you are using XP SP2s BT stuff,
open the manager, go to the COMM tab and see if a port is available. If not,
add one. Take that COMM port # and put it in AS's serial connection box.
Go to the BT manager on the PPC and set up a new shortcut. It will be an
ActiveSync one. Follow the prompts and it should get you an AS shortcut
that works with the PC.

It should work because BT is actually a serial connection, just like a wire
or IR. It's not a network connection like WiFi, which dies require the
machine to already have been partnered. The trick is having the BT port
setup, an picked in AS on the desktop first.
