i dont think it matters what dongle you use.
When you open the bluetooth menu on your pc, make sure it has the 'paired' icon. If not try to pair via the pc and not via the phone first. (or try vice versa)

if you are running XP and have updated to SP2 its a known issue that Microsoft have screwed around with the bluetooth stack and generally have crippled it. SP1 bluetooth was fantastic, never any problems, BT serial port worked great for FMA etc. But now in SP2 its crap really, you cant browse the phones contents etc, not sure on remote as i gave up on it.
Check on the manufacturers webstie as they may most likely will have updates for SP2 drivers.
Its a shame MS decided to mess around with bluetooth, sure its a bit more secure these days but its lost 90% of (IMO) functionality and ease of use.

my dongle is this
http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBay[....]Item&?ViewItem&item=6363452969 one
Although i can't find any exact details about the product (emailed the seller), i've tried updating it through windows although doesn't seem to do very much
Also i have paired it, i think, although it doesn't say it expliciatly?? i have swapped passcode n stuff, so i reckon that's that?
I tried the remote control program, it loads fine and appears fullly although it requires the connection to be working in the first instance
Is there any third party software i can use, i used to have a t610, and there was a program kicking about for bluetooth use like this one, although i can't remember the name?
Cheers

My dongle is a 'New Link NLUSBBT-100'
It is HID compatible.
I used to have a K700i and the remote function worked perfectly with the same dongle?
I have looked on the net and cannot find any updates etc.
Anyone got any other ideas??

you use the widcomm drivers? I think the problem is with the bluetooth implementation of the K750. I used to have a K700 and everything worked fine. Now i cannot start the remote from the phone. I can start the remote from the PC though. What use is that? Come on SE sort it out. It was working fine in the K700 why change it?

So....
Is it SE or Microsoft or the Dongle thats failing here? (or maybe all 3?)
Does anybody have XP sp2 with a K750i with the Remote Control function working?
I don't really have any need to use it to be honest, just my curiousity!

definitely SE i this case. As i have said, i have a K700 as well and that works absolutely fine. Therefore must be the BT in the K750 thats the problem.
