I can't connect my iPhone 4 to my MBP through bluetooth

I go through all the correct steps but still can't make the two connect:
I search for my iPhone using the bluetooth setup assistant
BSA finds my iPhone and I click to pair with it
An attempt to pair window comes up with a number to check against on both my Mac and iPhone
I click the "Pair" button on my iPhone and get the swirling blade icon for about 30 seconds then a message saying that pairing was unsuccessful, but no reason why.
Any ideas what to try next?

Where does it state this?
I copied the following from the developer's website in regards to using an iPhone as remote with the app on a Mac.
Bluetooth is known to cause interference with the WiFi connection, so you should turn off Bluetooth on your iPhone or iPod Touch before attempting to connect.
This means turn Bluetooth off on the iPhone to connect the iPhone as a remote via wi-fi.
• Some firewalls and routers can cause connection problems. For the most reliable results, you can setup internet sharing in the 'Sharing' pane in System Preferences on your Mac. You can then create a network from the Mac over WiFi and connect to that network with your iPhone or iPod Touch.
It states you can use an iPhone as a remote for the app on the iPad when connected via Bluetooth with an iPad.
