Receive File, rinse and repeat...
Posted: 05-11-2006, 08:44 AM
I've done a google and found plenty of folk with the same problem but no
answers...
On my laptop, to receive a file from my phone I have to right click the BT
Tray icon and choose to receive a file, send it from the phone and then
choose where to save it and blah blah.
Not the end of the world (and I can also take the memory card out of the
phone and bung it in the PC) but it annoys me because both my girlfriends PC
and my bosses laptop allow me to send files directly and they end up in
their "My Bluetooth Places" folder all automatically. Even sillier, I'm not
paired with those machines but I *am* paired to my PC!
Is this an XP problem (they use it too) or the specifics of the actual BT
hardware device? I've got discovery turned on, and "allow bluetooth devices
to connect to this computer" and "alert me when a new bluetoth device wants
to connect", but the computer won't even appear unless I have chosen to
receive a file! I've reinstalled Windows (for other reasons, I'm not *that*
bothered!) but the problem persists...
