I have the same problem.
As I tried it over an hour, I figured out something, but still doesn't work.

My first try:
1. create partnership from PC.
2. select incoming port in prophet (but only 6 and 7 is available)
3. try sync ... nothing.

on PC was ports 8 and 9 assigned.
I haven't read anywhere if ports on PC and prohnet must be the same. I meant not, so I tried this many times with different settings.

Then I tried to assign another numbers to these ports. (8, 9 -> 6,7). Now ports on PC was the same as on prophet (of course incoming-outgoing paired) Nothing happens.

Active sync from PC only shows some connection errors, and from prophet the error message as for cecey712.

Then I tried second way - create partnership from prophet. And there it is - even if I set large number of ports as incoming in bluetooth manager on PC (from 6 to 15, but 10 was used), no partnership was created.

So I believe it is my PC problem with these ports. Ports is closed or used or I don't know what, but I'm upset now and must turn it off or break it to pieces.
