How to install java application /game ?

Hi folks,
I finally managed to connect my Nokia 6275i to PC suite 6.8 via Bluetooth but now I have other dilemma ....
How do I install Java application or game ?
I downloaded dictionary and game as well ( *.jar) but when I want to install it I can't select my phone. In connection manager the phone is grayed out so I can't select it.
Other applications like Backup, managing contact ... do work fine.

Any ideas what to do ?

Thanks

Re: How to install java application /game ?

You should install it through the PC Suite "Install applications" feature (select the .jar file).

However, before that you need to get the phone connected properly so that PC Suite and the Application Installer sees it as connected.

Re: How to install java application /game ?

anyone have a resolution to this?
you waste a few hundred on a phone and they expect you to pay $10 more for a game?

you disagree to this and pay $40 for a connectivity cord only to find out they really really wanted you paying that $10 a game...

im not very familiar with the previous posters explaination,if someone would be kind enough to explain.
i would genuinely appreciate it.

I have the exact same problem. All connection work fine. I already synchronize outlook, mp3, photo with my PC but I am unable to install application.

Have you found a solution?

Re: How to install java application /game ?

I'm having problems installing games onto my phone(6275i) using the software which I downloaded from Nokia website. I'm also able to use all the other functions of the software, but I keep getting the message "No supported phone selected" when I open the Application Installer. My phone is connected to the USB slot. How are people getting around this, cause I want some games on my phone.

Re: How to install java application /game ?

I live in Europe so no first hand experience, this is just "reading other forums" based thinking:
If it is a US phone, some carriers there have disabled the application installing via cable or Bluetooth to ensure users buy and download games only "over the air" so that the carrier benefits from selling games.
