Does my VAIO have an IR Port?

Can't seem to find one.
I have a VGN-AR21S; it has an IR symbol on the front of it but does not show any drivers as far as I can tell.

I want to use it to sync with my PDA.

Hi Meld51,

Welcome to Club Vaio, :slight_smile:

Unfortunately according to the specs your AR21S does not have an IR port, I suspect the port you are referring to is the Infra red receiver port used to receive the signals from the supplied remote control unit..

Edit: I have also deleted your other duplicate post.. :wink:

OK, Thanks for the info. So the next thing to do would be to connect via bluetooth. That seems fraught with issues though. Has anyone here got experience of Microsoft Activesync via Bluetooth. I think I can forge a link between my PDA and my VAIO but I can't make Activesync see it?

See the first part of this article which will take you through the initial part of the setup.
