I've just got a bluetooth dongle for my PC. Using the software that came with the dongle I can pair up with my Nokia 3230 no problems, but PC Suite is a different story:

I go to Connections Manager, click on bluetooth and click configure. The connection wizard pops up and I click on next. It's at this point I get the error in the form of a message box:

"Cannot use the connection type. Check that all the needed hardware, software and drivers are available.

OK"

Does anybody have any ideas? My dongle is a BT-210

Thanks

Tim

EDIT: All sorted. I updated my pc suite and dongle drivers

I once experienced same problem with Nokia PC Suite.

I solved the problem by downloading PC Suite software from Nokia's website, which I then installed on my PC. Using the help file on the PC Suite software, I was able to connect my N-Gage to my laptop.

I suggest you do the same, and go through the help to connect your phone. If you are still having problem, then we can take it up from there.
