I know this isn't the answer you want to hear, but when I had this problem, I had to delete the pairing and re-pair the phone to the mac. Try it.

@ bmsantillan

Let's not get rid of either the iBook or the P900 now, shall we? If you still haven't done anything foolish yet, calm down and do this:

In the Bluetooth settings, select your device (iBook) and check the allow to connect w/o confirmation. Maybe the iBook has been trying to connect and you did not manually accept its connection!

Get back if it does or does not work.

"discoverable" - pairing and bluetooth file exchange
"on" - iSync

Hey guys!!!

iSync finally worked!!! re-paired from the phone, changed some settings, re-boot and OLA!!! Thanks to all of you!!!

Maybe you can also help me with another thing.... My HP network printer is not working thru my iBook... I successfully added the printer... the printel model driver is also pre-loaded into the system... Either i get garbage text on top or the printer goes on and on getting paper..

I hope I can the workaround soon because for me to print i have to transfer my file to a PC within the network and print from there...

TIA!!!

Could you be more specific about the settings you changed?
I just bought a P900 and I'm having the same problems!

@2manydjs, i like the name! i have the album!
with regards to your pairing problem, always pair up from your p900, go into:control panel/connections/bluetooth/devices. if your computer is paired delete it and re-pair again you will have to put in a passkey(your choice) this will then bond again to your computer, you should now be able to sync! i hope this helps you good luck!

@the iSyncer's

go to: http://discussions.info.apple.com/.599cf152/415 and do a search for posts by: Andrea, Paul Butler, Don Trammell, and Alex. These guys have posted extensive information about why iSync does and does not work. In short, SE uses an application called mRouter and this is used to connect and send data back and forth between the phone and the Mac. mRouter was originally written for the Windoze community. It is not a very elegant solution but hey, it's Windoze. Anyway, the iSync solution is much easier in terms of functionality and reliablity. The cable solution is too cumbersome. The ideal solution would be to use OBEX over Bluetooth over SyncML, but SE has not decided to do this. Currently with the P900/P800 and iSync it is hit and miss. I get 100% iSync's but I have not upgraded to R5B02, however some have and it works. Some have and it does not work. The thing to do would be to press SE about this as the fault lies with SE rather than Apple on this issue.
