    Want to stop using Bluetooth for ActiveSync

    Thank you so much for your response.

    I think I have removed the pairing, but will try again. I have definitely set ActiveSync back to USB. I was trying to avoid deleting the partnership altogether just in case I lost anything, but will try that after trying the others if they both don't
    work. I'm pretty sure the cable is good because a) it worked moments before I set up Bluetooth, b) it makes the sound of connecting and disconnecting (although the connecting sound is now slightly different), and c) Bluetooth only worked when the cable was
    connected. It's like Bluetooth wants the cable, but isn't actually using it. Maybe it only wants it to actually establish the connection, and then stops using it - which could explain why it's not charging the battery. Note that other programs besides ActiveSync
    no longer recognize the device either (ie. my billing software), and if I click on "Safely Remove Hardware", it no longer shows up there.

    The Q battery has never even been close to running out by the end of the day before, and after using Bluetooth, I couldn't even keep it charged all day - even after it was disabled. After disabling Bluetooth, I allowed it to completely drain and power
    off on its own, then fully charge, and that seemed to 'reset' it.

    I'm away from my desk for the rest of this week, but will do this ASAP as I really need it to work, and will comment on how I made out.

    Thanks again!

    Hello. That is bizarre. If the BT connection was set up properly, you do not need to use the cable. At all. Just curious but what would happen when you opened AS on your Q and selected "Connect/Sync by Bluetooth" if you didn't plug the cable in? If you plugged
    the cable in in order to get it to sync, you must have been syncing by USB. I'm tending to believe that the BT connection was never made but the partnership now has some strange combination of BT and USB configuration. Again, be sure that you have a backup
    of all your contacts/calendar before you delete your AS partnerships. This free PIMBackup program should work on the Q to backup your PIM info to a storage card:

    PIM Backup v2.80 freeware for Windows Mobile Phone.

    Here's the user guide:
