I am having a problem connecting my P800 to the PC. On the Phone Connection Link, it comes up to me that the phone is connected, but when i try to syncronize it with any program it says that it cannot find the phone, i dont know what is the problem!!!!
But when i install just File Manager for the P800, it can connect, and i can transfer files to and from the P800, but any other thing, it wont connect....
P.S. i used the same cradle and the phone on the other computer, and it worked perfect...
Can someone help me what to do, please....

The same thing happened to me, it would be on the cradle, the green light on, but it still says not connected. Do you have a bluetooth dongle installed? I installed my bluetooth after the pc suite for the p800, then it got all f*cked up, but then I uninstalled them both, then installed the bluetooth first, then the pc suite, then it worked.

The PC sync software is basically crap. I can only reliably sync to Outlook 2002 by exiting Outlook first, it hangs otherwise. Even then it still often has trouble recognizing the phone is even connected, and generates duplicate entries. Yesterday it even started deleting Contacts! It is crap. Is there anything else to sync Outlook to a P800? This is over USB. I dread to think how it must be over BT.

guys please read carefully!!!
i had the same problems connecting my p800 to my pc(OS XP), the connection link it says connected but when trying to sync it says not connected, it really drove me crayze i tried everything, i even called sonyericsson technical support, but as many as you knows they have no f*cking clue when it comes to the p800, anyway, after good 10hours of frustration and trynig to find out what the hell is going on, i finally find it, and if you follow my steps maybe it will resolve the problem.
1>instal the latest pc suite from sonyericsson website.(if u did so skip)
2>connect the cradle to the usb port.(if it says driver found good, otherwise insert the pc suite cd).
3>now go to your toolbal on your pc, and if you have any(and i mean any) firewall program like norton internet security i(n my case) right click on it and disable the program.
4>now go back to your toolbar on you pc, and right click on phone connection link, and click properties, and disconnect the com port connected to your cradle, and wait 10 seconds, and then connect again and wait another 30 seconds and it will connect the phone and BAM your p800 is now connected.
5>now after successful connection you can go ahead and enable you firewall.
****you will need to repeat step 3,4 and 5 everytime you restart your pc.
now just to let everybody knows this is the only resolution i found (in my situation), so keep and mind it may works it may not. so good luck to all, and please if it did work, make sure you reply to the post.
