    Anyone have any idea how to connect a BT enabled PDA (Ipad 2210) to an XPS 1210? Everytime I try to pair, I can only get file transfer or personal network to connect. Then it does nothing, not even networking or file transfers.

    Using the option on the PDA "Connect to Device through Activesync" does nothing.

    I am so confused :(

    Tried again, they just won't play nice together. They can "pair" and recognise eachother, but nothing will make ActiveSync 4.2 work :(

    Found the problem. ActiveSync needed to be reverted from 4.2 to 3.8 to work. How odd.
