    It sounds like you have bluetooth disabled. Make sure the wireless switch is turned on on the notebook, and that bluetooth is enabled within the HP wireless assistant.

    One small thing...

    The phone may be bluetooth, but you must turn on the BT option on the phone or it will not produce a signal for the HP to pickuip.
