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.

Thanks. Ive noticed the P2k doesnt support it. I just wanted to do soem ringtones (mp3). MPT isnt seeing the phone. Is there a certain version i need? I am just trying to avoid getting the cable

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.

Hmm, im having trouble finding these places! Anyone know where to look?

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.

Hmm. I am also looking in the control panel according to windows help. I dont see it anywhere. Only in the BIOS.

Is there a Bluetooth places option right in your start menu?

Negative....I emailed dell support awhile ago. Thanks for the help guys. I will let you know what they say

Ah, Dell said my notebook wasnt shipped with the module. I thought I selected that option but i guess not. Looks like im gonna need a cable. Thanks for the help.

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.
