One way to know if the sync is going to fail is to watch the Bluetooth activity light on the phone - if it starts flashing fast (indicating an active session), then goes back to the normal slow flash, the connection has failed. Another trick is to set the phone to require acceptance of incoming connections - if the activity light starts flashing and the accept/reject popup doesn't appear, the connection is going to fail. Either of these indications happens faster than waiting for a "Can't connect" message in the iSync log. In either case, I cancel the sync, then on my P900 I delete the pairing for my PowerBook & re-add it.

Kia ora,
Ross

I get this often with my P800, usually if I've turned Bluetooth off on the phone sometime since the last sync.

Re-add the Mac on the phone, enter the passphrase, and cancel the "What features would you like to use?" dialog. Try again --- it works for me at this point.

Still bloody annoying, because you can't tell until the sync fails that it's not worked; in my case, it never asks to transfer an entry on the P800, so the sync fails.
