Nokia BH-905 with MBP

I have both an iMac and a MacBook Pro - both running the latest version of Mac OSx (10..6.?). I have recently purchased a pair headphones - noise cancelling, bluetooth,, etc (Nokia BH-905) primarily for use with my iPhone. They work fine with my iPhone bt absolutely no joy with the Mac - any ideas?

According to the tech specs the headphones support the following :

- Handsfree profile (HFP) 1.5
- Headset profile (HSP) 1.1
- Advanced Audio Distribution Profile (A2DP) 1.2
- Audio/Video Remote Control Profile (AVRCP) 1.0

The Bluetooth profiles supported by Mac OS X 10.6.x are :

- Advanced Audio Distribution Profile (A2DP): Controls stereo audio headphones.
-Audio Video Remote Control Profile (AVRCP): Controls the buttons on headphones and other devices.
-Dial-Up Networking Profile (DUN): Allows a mobile phone to act as a modem and connect to an Internet service provider (ISP) and the Internet.
-File Transfer Profile (FTP): Allows a Bluetooth device to send and receive files from another device (on both client and server devices).
-Hardcopy Cable Replacement Profile (HCRP): Allows a Bluetooth device to connect and print to a wireless, Bluetooth enabled printer.
-Headset Profile (HSP): Allows a Bluetooth device to use a wireless, Bluetooth enabled headset to send and receive audio.
-Human Interface Device (HID) Profile: Allows a Bluetooth device to use a wireless input device, such as a keyboard or mouse.
-Object Push Profile (OPP): Allows a Bluetooth device to send files to a remote device (on both client and server devices).
-Serial Port Profile (SPP): Enables incoming and outgoing connections to Bluetooth devices (on both client and server devices).

One missing profile is Handsfree profile (HFP) 1.5 - is this the issue?

I would dearly appreciate any advice or guidance on this issue (if there is any to be had).

FYI - I have done plenty of searching - all to no avail.

iMac, MBP, Mac OS X (10.6.5), 2.4Ghz, 24", 4Gb SDRAM | iPhone 4g 32Gb
