STEPS
- Install your Bluetooth hardware and its drivers. Download the latest versions if necessary.
- Install the software provided by the mobile phone manufacturer. If you don't have a CD, you can download it fairly easily from the internet. Make sure you know the make and model number of your mobile phone to make your job easier.
- Switch on Bluetooth on your mobile phone and make sure that it can be seen by other devices.
- If you are using Windows XP, click on your start menu, go to control panel, then Bluetooth devices.
- Click on Add device and after it finishes the search, select your mobile phone.
- It might ask you for something called a passcode. Here, you can select any one of the options in the list. I usually prefer proceeding without a passcode.
- If you have selected to use a passcode, enter the same code on your mobile when asked.
- Once this is finished, you have successfully paired your computer and phone.
- Now run the mobile phone software you installed. Depending on the software, you will see options to either backup or sync your phone.
TIPS
- Make sure your phone supports Bluetooth.
- Make sure your computer is Bluetooth enabled.
- Always download latest versions of drivers and software. It makes the whole thing easier
- Bluetooth range is limited, so ensure that the phone is not far away from the computer.
- Most lower end phone models offer no connectivity at all. Avoid these if you plan to connect it to your computer.
- If you plan to use a passcode, remember what it is during the procedure
