Hello. I am trying to pair my Razr v3m with my Mac Mini Intel (10.4) in Address Book to use the SMS. It is asking me for the PassKey, I entered 0000. Should I be using a different passkey? It says it is paired successfully, but when I click on someones name in Address Book, the blue glow around the Bluetooth icon goes dim. Then when I click on someone's number, the actions requiring my phone (SMS, Call, etc) are dimmed out, leaving "Dial with Skype", etc. I have already paired it in Mac OS X but can't set it up here. Can anyone help?:eek:

Thanks, Kevin

I think the problem is that the RAZR doesn't support the requisite Bluetooth service / profile. I googled for this and found similar comments. I have two phones set up on my iMac G5 -- my RAZR V3 and my Nokia 3650. If I go to System Prefs -> Bluetooth -> Devices and Configure my Nokia, the screen that lists what services I'm authorizing includes an entry "Use with Address Book." My RAZR has no such option.
