I have also had problems with connecting to my V555 via Bluetooth through MPT. The only thing I use Bluetooth for is transferring pics and ringtones to/from my phone. Bluetooth will not work for connecting with P2KMan.

Just go to your Bluetooth places on your computer and search for devices in range. Make sure your phone is discoverable when you do this. Once the computer finds the phone, the phone will show up as a network drive. Then you just copy/paste pics or ringtones into the appropriate folders on the phone.

There should be a Bluetooth icon in your icon tray in the lower right corner of your screen. Just double click that, and you'll be in your Bluetooth places.

Or you could get a USB Bluetooth adapter for like $20. It is much more reliable than a USB cable, IMO...

I borrowed my friends bluetooth dongle. It works great. I just use the windows explorer to drag and drop.

Thanks for the help.
