Hi!
I have a strange problem with my P800:
As soon as I insert the phone into the USB-cradle the phone connection monitor says "connnected" but if I open the change phone dialog the list is empty. Opening sync station settings results in the error message: "no phone connected please connect and define your phone first."
The same thing happens when using bluetooth. It says "connected", but it won't find my phone.
I installed the software on a friend's PC and everything worked fine the first time.
I have a Sony R600-HFP laptop with Windows XP Pro.
Can anyone help? |

Not sure if this will help:
1) Right click on the "phone connections link" in your task bar (Double sided arrow) and select Properties
2) If your sync station is attached you should see a USB Connection, I think it's on COM Port 6 check that box.
You should now be connected

@maartenh
Are you behind a firewall? If so, disable it and try to reconnect.

@Bogman: thanxs for the reply.
The box next to USB is checked and it also says "connected" but the sw won't identify my phone.
@WoeDee: i already tried disabling my firewall (Norton NetDefense) but it didn't change a thing...

Go into "Phone Monitor" and check that your ports are enabled and NOT reserved
Hope this helps?

The bluetooth connection on this phone for enabling the serial port is shite... I am absolutely fed up of this now... I am having to carry my sync station to work and back because I can't get a reliable BT connection.
Very disapointed. |

@Bogman: I've enabled the COM port for the USB cradle but reserved or not: no phone, sorry.
@andy: bluetooth works fine for me but i can only make an internet connection because the pc suite software won't find my phone... |
