I have a Dell Axim X51V, with Windows Mobile 5.

I have a desktop and notebook computer running Windows XP Professional.

I want to sync my PDA to both of my computers however I only have one cradle. Both my PDA and notebook have blue tooth and wireless capabilities.

I have attempted to do both. I can not get either one to work.

I have read that all that is needed is a partnership between the pda and computer, and wireless connections allowed in active sync. Both have been done.

However neither one will work. The blue tooth is not even connecting.

Anybody have any suggestions?

Have you seen this document and links from it?

"In addition, ActiveSync 4.5 includes a troubleshooter utility that scans your computer and device to identify problems and offers information and corrective actions to solve them".

Download Microsoft ActiveSync 4.5

Read from "Step 3" in this article.
Bluetooth ActiveSync Guide for Windows XP Service Pack 2

 
I have followed the provided link as best I could.

When it came to creating a Active sync blue tooth partner ship on my pda the pda has no option to do this.

If I go into active sync on my PDA In the menu their is an option to Connect via Blue tooth but when I select this it says that their are no partnerships that support active sync do I want to create one now. The only thing available is Serial Port.

Any suggestions for wireless?
