If you cannot connect your 3650 via Bluetooth with your Mac…

You should check out this Knowledge Base Article and this one. I was having trouble syncing Address Book and the Nokia 3650 via bluetooth with iSync at first. Both devices saw the other and were paired, but every time I tried to sync I received an “Unable to establish connection” error. Turns out it was a firewall problem. Rather than entirely disabling my firewall, I followed the 2nd part of these instructions:

Turn off the personal firewall setting in System Preferences:

1. Choose Apple > System Preferences.

2. Choose View > Sharing.

3. Click the Firewall tab.

4. Click Stop to turn off the firewall.

Alternatively, configure the firewall settings in step 4 to open the port to the phone. Click New and enter these settings:

Port Name: Other

Port Number, Range or Series: 3004

Description: Bluetooth

Now it works like a charm…
