We now have a k600 and a k700. I had my k700 all set up with the SE PC Suite, FMA and MyPhoneExplorer. I connected the k600 to the pc which works fine.
Now I'd like to use the k600 in those programs.
- the explorer (pc) should recognise both phones, and show them as two items
- can both connect at the same time? I could not get the k600 to 'log in' to the SE-software (the yelow V did not turn to green)
- should I install the pcsuite that came with the k600 over that of the k700? Isn't is basically the same program?
- how to use fma with 2 phones?
Any hint would be welcome
TIA

Why two? Because we have to and want to connect each one for the same reason...
Apparently the pc-suite versions for k700 and k600 are different and one can not install both next to each other.
FMA seems to be the only program capable of handling multiple phones (through the 'switch database' option) so I might have to rely on that for both and choose which phone to further connect with the SE pc-suite as the poster above suggested. |

as far as I am aware, NONE of those programs allow you to connect to two phones at the same time. Sure you can connect one, then disconnect it and connect another, but neither fma nor myphoneexplorer will allow you maintain a simultaneous connection to BOTH phones. You could however have fma connected to one phone, and myphoneexplorer connected to another.
The SE PC Suite file explorer may but I haven't used it for a while and can't remember if it can or not. I wouldn't bother with the SE PC Suite, I've always found the connections to be slow and unstable at best. FMA or myphoneexplorer are way better (although fma connections crash on large file transfers in my experience). The other option is to use the bluetooth dongle software's obex file transfer function to browse the phone's directories. I'm pretty sure that using obex file transfer you can have two phones connected simultaneously. This is WAY more useful than the native xp bluetooth implementation.
