Bluetooth won't connect to Cell Phone

Okay, i am trying to connect my MBP to my razr. It is verizon and won't connect. It says that does not have the necessary services. My friends have been able to connect their motorolla phones to their MB/MBP's but I can't seem too...

Any thoughts?

CathKel06,

You could try going the other way: establish a connection using the phone.

It might also depend on what you are attempting to do. The first step is to establish a "pairing" between the two devices (the phone and your MBP). Once this has been accomplished, you might be able to simply send files and such automatically.

I can tell you that my Samsung A900M (a lot like the Razr) gave me problems when I attempted to establish a connection to it using my MBP. The phone would simply freeze, and I had to remove the battery to recover (it wouldn't even power down normally). I was attempting to establish a Bluetooth connection in order to use the phone as a broadband modem (it is designed to do this). After wasting a bunch of time with it, I found that the phone would happily pair with the MBP by itself, and I could then use either device to establish a connection.

This might provide all the help you need. If not, please give us more information about what you are trying to do.
