Problems with T68i and Bluetooth
I've had a T68i for about two years, and just recently purchased a K700i. The new phone is great, but I'm not thrilled with the included ringtones. I'd like to transfer a few of the ringtones from my T68i to my K700i via my Mac.
For some reason, Bluetooth File Exchange does not want to access my T68i. The phone is paired with the Mac, and I've successfully used iSync for the last two years. However, when I try to browse the phone's directories in BFE, it fails and says something like "The phone does not support this service." I also tried the demo of PhoneAgent; it tries to connect to the phone, but nothing ever happens. Bluetooth File Exchange works fine with my new K700i.
Does anyone have any trouble-shooting suggestions I could try?
Thanks!

PS: Most of the ringtone and theme sites I've seen seen to support download only via WAP. I'd rather browse for these files on my Mac and then transfer them to my phone; anyone know of any Mac-friendly theme/ringtone sites that will allow this? I'm particularly interested in business/professional themes.

Instead of using the Mac to browse your T68i and grab the files, why not use the phone and send them to the Mac?
I've never had a T68i but if it works the same way as a T610 or K700, just highlight the file you want to send on the phone, select
More > Send > Via Bluetooth

Sadly, I don't think it works this way. AFAIK, the T68i does not have a file browser (unless I'm missing something obvious, which is entirely possible).

PS: Has anyone heard a successful report of someone updating the firmware in their K700i using a DSS-20/25 and a Mac with Virtual PC?
Thanks!

The T610 didn't have a file browser as such, but when you're in the screen that lets you set the ringtone to use, you could click More and then Send while the ringtone name was highlighted.
I've yet to try updating my K700 online, partly because O2 haven't yet released a firmware on the service, and also because the eBay bought DSS-20 isn't actually a DSS-20 and the seller won't now respond to my emails.
The update got as far as it could via Virtual PC but without the proper DSS-20/25 I couldn't progress any further.

Thanks for the info, Jools. I'll mess with my T68 a bit more and see if I can sort it out. Please keep us posted on your luck with the software update!

I know this maybe a fanciful request...but are any of the Sony Ericsson online updates compatible with the MACs yet??

Not directly... You need to be using Windows to run the update. It should work with Virtual PC but I've yet to try it out completely because my network provider O2 haven't provided firmware for it yet. I started the update through Virtual PC running Windows XP SP2 and it worked fine up as far as it could...
