Help Needed, Nokia N81 & Connecting To True Via Bluetooth And Acer Laptop!

[funfun]

hi, im stuck again,

just bought a nokia n81, and connected via bluetooth to laptop, (acer aspire 5051) now when i try dial up as i normally do with my 5300 it comes up dial no which i have preset to *99# then it connects and the n81 says accept or whatever then i enter yes then an error shows up on computor screen?

any ideas?

its the same sim card as i normally use, true package free calls and unlimited internet

i think its probobly somthing i havent set up in phone settings, but not sure at all

sorry one more thing, my old 5300 used to say somthing like connect to pattya4u (computors name from shop) now this new one lights up connect to true?

any help on this would be great, again if you can help please write it so an idiot can understand!

cheers

Bluetooth music hasnt got anything to do with the modem its a seperate driver....have a look in device manager for the nokia bluetooth modem and properties and query modem see if any infomation comes up..if it does then thats fine if it doesnt then that will be youir problem

cant see modem properties in nokia bit, but it says

"bkuetooth (widcomm) with a tick at side

above thougth its got

"bluetooth microsoft" without a tick and it wont let me tick it, not sure if i should but i tried and it says gotta put disc back in what do you think?

i rhink that might be your problem..their is aq bit of a problem with Nokia bluetooth somewtimes it will show up as a Nokia Bluetooth device and other times it will say Microsoft Bluetooth or Standard bluetooth...

What does it say for modems in device manager????

Have you re-paired the new phone since you brought it, in Nokia connection manager?

Check all that and post back or...what i would do is...

Turn off your bluetooth for a minute then re-install Nokia Suite then reboot the PC/Laptop then turn bluetooth back on on your phone then open up Nokia Connection manager then re-pair the N81 and come back to me

Also check that your Laptop is showing as a paired device on your phone
