Hi,
I have just bought a new K700i. Hoping it would synchronise the same way as my previous Treo 180g or tungsten but the syn settings are appauling. I know someone out there can help me.
I have paired my phone with my PC using bluetooth. When I send a picture to the PC using bluetooth it works and the BT shows a green signal. Now the question is how do I ask my phone to synchronise my outlook calender and address book.
In the services I have ticked the boxed to sync my Address book and Calender and my Business Card.
The k700i CD did not come with Xtnd connect do I really need that to do this. Do I need to activate Microsoft's Active sync. Do I need to enable a port for every new service added. On my phone the my devices shoes following services:
Service supp:
Headset
Synchronisation
Object push
File transfer
Are there any step by step guides to do this.
I am using a Toshiba Laptop with Sitecom USB Bluetooth Dongle (CN502)
I think coming from a Palm PDA background I am finding it frustrating to fiddling these settings.
Thanks for your help

Thanks Vineet,
The fma s/w worked like a charm.
It even fixed the infrared problem. I'm not using bluetooth anymore.
Few glitches--->
When I start fma it gives me 11 "help file" related problems. When I stopped synchronisation in between the whole s/w froze and I had to uninstall the software and re-install and restart my computer.
I noticed that you can not syn calender enteries using fma or am I missing something?
Which is a stable version of fma?
Cheers
