8 Troubleshooting If you are experiencing difficulties connecting or using your Nokia mobile phone, check whether your problem is listed below. If it is, try the suggestions made to resolve the problem. I can t pair my Nokia mobile phone with my computer There are various reasons why your Nokia mobile phone and computer may not pair: Your Nokia mobile phone may have come out of discoverable mode. Your Nokia mobile phone may be out of range. Your Nokia mobile phone may already be connected to another device in range. Check that your Nokia mobile phone is not communicating with another device, make sure it is in range and in discoverable mode, and try the pairing procedure again. Finally, if none of the above works, try switching your mobile phone off and back on again. I m having problems synchronizing If you are getting errors when synchronizing, try the following: If your mobile phone is a Nokia 3610i, make sure it is using firmware version 5.5 or higher. To check the version of firmware your Nokia 3610i mobile phone is using, type *##0000# on your mobile phone. The version number of the firmware is displayed. If your Nokia 3610i mobile phone uses firmware that is lower than version 5.5, contact the retailer of your mobile phone for information about how to update your mobile phone. Make sure you have installed PC Suite software version 6.3 or higher on your computer. (Refer to the CD that came with your Nokia mobile phone for more information about installing PC Suite.) Make sure that your Nokia mobile phone is available in PC Suite, by clicking the Connected To Nokia icon,, and selecting Phone Monitor. Check the your Nokia mobile phone s status by following the instructions shown. Make sure that your Nokia mobile phone is not connected to another Bluetooth device. You cannot synchronize unless your mobile phone is connected to your computer only. Check that your Nokia mobile phone is paired to your computer before you start synchronization. Look in My Bluetooth Places and locate the device icon for your Nokia mobile phone: The device icon is displayed if it is paired Logitech, Inc. 8

9 Press the Connect button on your Bluetooth wireless hub, and follow the on-screen instructions. Check the configuration of Easy Synchronization. All paired devices should be associated with PC Suite If the device does not exist, verify within My Bluetooth Places that the device is correctly paired. If the device is shown in My Bluetooth Places but Easy Synchronization fails, then the issue is probably related to device privacy. Logitech respects the privacy of all personal devices, and therefore prevents the synchronization or transfer of information from a mobile phone if it is not recognized as the current user s phone, for example because it was paired using a different Windows user account. Therefore, unpair and then pair the device using the correct user account to make the device recognizable in Easy Synchronization. If PC Suite is not identified, re-run the Easy Synchronization Configuration process. If the problem persists, make sure you are using the correct version of PC Suite (visit If it s correct, try uninstalling and re-installing it. Finally, if none of the above works, try switching your mobile phone off and back on again. When a computer's audio gateway/headset service is connected, synchronization / file sending may not be successful. If you think that the synchronization is taking too long, bear in mind that the first time you synchronize your Nokia mobile phone with your computer it can typically take up to fifteen minutes. Subsequent synchronizations take much less time. Why can t I end a Bluetooth connection? If a device is paired with your Nokia mobile phone but is not transferring data, and has left the device connection open, then the only way to disconnect it is to deactivate the Bluetooth link. To do so: 1 On your phone, from the Menu select Bluetooth. 2 Set Bluetooth to Off Logitech, Inc. 9
