Pairing your computer with a Bluetooth enabled mobile phone

Before you can use your mobile phone to connect to the Internet or synchronize contact information, you need to pair your computer with your phone. Use the Bluetooth Setup Assistant to pair with a mobile phone.

Open Bluetooth Setup Assistant, located in Applications/Utilities, and follow the onscreen instructions.

During the pairing process you will be asked to enter a passkey on your computer and phone. A passkey is like a password, except the same passkey must be entered on both devices. You only need to enter the passkey once, so you don't need to remember it.

You can also choose "Set up Bluetooth Device" from the Bluetooth status menu in the menu bar to pair with and set up a mobile phone.
