Bluetooth Active Syinc - MDA II, XDA II, 2060 General

Hey, i wonder if anyone could help me.
I have a belkin F8T001 bluetooth dongle and have upgraded to sp2. I am unable to get my XDA to sync with my computer. I can bond them together fine and transfer files between but the XDA never gives me the option for using it to active sync.
Sorry i know this question has been sort of answered before but i really cant seem to get this working.
Thanks in advance.

IVT CORPORATION BLUESOLEIL ISSUES

Not able to use BlueTooth File Transfer Service
Dear Friends,
Please if some one could help with this issue, i am using O2 XDA II Mini with IVT Bluesoleil USB blue tooth dongle, when i discover the services on my windows XP LAPTOP i get 3 services active,
1) Bluetooth dial up network service
2) Bluetooth serial port service
3) Bluetooth object pull-push service
i want to know how can i get the bluetooth file transfer service activated so that i can transfer my files from PC to Phone via bluetooth.
Currently i am using ActiveSync Explorer to do so.
Regards
Niks
I have the same problem,
I somehow was able to object push a .txt file, once, then never again. Then i gave up and just copied files using my card reader + SD card which is much easier.
Edit: I think it may have something to do with the M$ bluetooth stack, changing this to another stack might fix the problem. Let me know how you go.
Are you using the M$ BTdriver on your PC or your own?

Activesync 4.2 beta available... anyone used it yet?

http://www.microsoft.com/windowsmobile/downloads/activesync42.mspx
Available... still no wifi sync...
Has anyone tried it yet?
Yes and its made no difference to my activesync issues...
I can't see any other obvious changes...
Yes, the same sh ....
I wait for the final german release, and i've never had problems with AS 4.1 (except the bluescreen problem caused by Kaspersky).
Definate improvement for me, I had problems where I couldn't sync using USB when I'm connected to the work VPN. AS would keep spinning and connecting, and the VPN connection would die. Only way for me to sync was to use IrDa. Now, with AS4.2 USB sync works fine. (At last)

Anyone here with a Logitech DiNovo Keyboard set? I've been having problems since v.3.8 of activesync in that the setpoint software and active sync conflict causing the current active windows to loose focus for one second every 7seconds.
Very irritating. Has this version solved the problem? Logitech doesn't want to claim responsibility for the problem. Neither does microsoft
Logitech Desktop M5000 Laser
Jorgee, I've got the set above.
If I install the MS Bluetooth option for the Logitech and use AS bluetooth, it works fine.
If I use the Widcomm BT for the Logitech, no connection.
I had AS (using BT or USB) steal focus every 4 seconds IF Outlook wasn't open - as soon as I open Outlook (I'm using 2003), no further problems.
It appears to be an issue with AS and Outlook.
I'm not sure if this is of any use to you, but you never know...

I will try what you said. As a fix what I would do is open taskmanager and terminate the setpoint process. this corrects it but ofcourse I loose setpoint functionality.
1 question. What do you mean by "ms bluetooth option" and "widcomm"? do I get to choose from the 2 during installation? how do you recommend * proceed. I might just format my Pc over the weekend so this is the perfect oportunity.
ActiveSync dosnt work for me
Hiya Guts
Can anyone help.
I got my XDA Exec last week and tried installing ActiveSync but to no avail does it detect my PDA. Actually it worked once.
I decided to install the latest version 4.2 but still nothing. I installed and removed over a dozen time, rebooted pc and nothing. I followed instructions to add profiles to my firewall and still nothing.
I dont know what else to do. Can anyone help?
Thanks

Are you using any firewall software... or inparticular Norton Applications??? If so, try disabling it (but stay offline if ya worried), and then connecting, if this fixes your problem there is a bit on the M$ website (there are sometimes bits of use there...) I found that helped when sorting me mates Exec out... I'll dig that up
And I found 4.2 a lot better than 4.1, it's a lot faster to sync the calendar and e-mail files! :-D
Works w/o any problems
All settings were taken over from 4.1
Cheers

Connect your Exec, load up Activesync
Click on Explore, you'll be taken to the My Documents on your Main Memory, drag drop there, or in My Pictures... or explore the device and create a folder in your Storage Card and dump them there...

I have the exact same problem. Interestingly I am using Setpoint software too with my Logitech mx610 mouse which is cordless (2,4 Ghz i believe) and use a seperate dongle my Bluetooth which is a Jabra A320s dongle.
If Outlook is not open i lose focus every 4-5 seconds and then get it back. Interestingly I only noticed today and I am sure i have used BT activesync and this mouse at the same time before without Outlook being open. Frickin odd...and highly annoying.

xv6800 cannot sync via bluetooth

Hey all, sorry for the remedial questions, but I am pulling my hair out trying to get my phone connected to my laptop thru ActiveSync via Bluetooth. I have the verizon xv6800, running dcd 2.3.2, activesync 4.5 and windows XP.
Anyone have a noob step by step? I have read the phone docs and the activesync docs and I cannot get it. My ports are matching and I can "connect" to the laptop, meaning my pc sees it as a bluetooth device and vice versa.. but not transfer anything or connect via activesync.
Thanks.

anyone help out?
I am too having the same problem. I had given up but if someone would be willing to help that would be wonderful.
ive never been able to get bluetooth activesync to work on XP but it works flawlessly on vista.
