Cannot send files to phone using Bluetooth

I recently got a LG UX260. It does not have a USB port, so I have to use Bluetooth if I want to transfer files. When I first got the phone, I was able to connect my MacBook and phone and transfer files back and forth, no problem. Now every time I try, the transfer fails (I get an "Operation failed: bad request" or it tells me access was denied).
I authorize the access to my phone each time.
I have tried deleting my paired devices and repairing them.
I have tried restarting my phone and MacBook.
Bluetooth sharing is enabled under the sharing folder in the system preferences.
When I check the status of the device in the Bluetooth program, my phone is listed as paired and connected.
Please help, this is getting super annoying!

Well you must enable bluetooth sharing. To do so, just go to Preferences>Internet & Wireless>Bluetooth>Sharing Setup(at bottom right)>tick mark bluetooth sharing. Thats it and the next time you won't have a problem.
Note: Open padlock or else you won't be able to  make any changes

  • Sending files from phone using bluetooth.

    How can I send files from phone (Nokia E61) to MacBook using bluetooth?
    There are the steps that I'm doing:
    1-Open bluetooth on my phone and Mac.
    2-select files on my phone.
    3-select send via bluetooth.
    4-select my Mac form bluetooth devices menu.
    5-click send.
    6-Connecting....
    7-Sending failed.
    I believe there is something that I have to do on my Mac to accept these files.
    BTW, I can browse my phone from Mac, but it's much easier to send files from phone to laptop.

  • Cannot send files from phone via bluetooth to iMac

    I bought the latest Imac about 2 wks ago and I have had a Mac before,it was my very first computer. I am a seller on Ebay and use Bluetooth to send photos to Computer as my camera is awol. I have been able to pair my Samsung Galaxy Ace and my old Nokia 6210 to the Imac no problem.Its when I go to send a file from either phone that it wont send. The exact words displayed on my phoone are ''Remote device rejected your request''. Both devices are visible but when I click on my phone say the Samsung in the Imac list it has beside it ''not connected''. How do I enable the Bluetooth to accept my Samsung or Nokia as i really need it

  • Cannot send files from phone to Satellite L755-16z using BT

    Hi, experts :)
    I'm gonna get straight to the point !
    I've got a toshiba satallite L755-16z since a month or so (New, with windows 7 64-bit)
    and its is known that it has BT and I guess its 3.0
    So I tried to connect the bluetooth with my phone & it paired just fine !
    but when I try to send files from and to my phone, it says (connecting) but doesn't manage to send it in the end. furthermore, this problem isn't only with my phone as I've tried sending and recieving to & from another phone, but still same problem !
    HOWEVER, I tried to turn the BT adapter off (right click on bluetooth Icon in notification area then turn adapter off), then starting the (bluetooth monitor) application, and sending files & IT WORKS !!
    But this happens only for one time right after restarting bluetooth, so everytime I have to send files, I have to turn BT off then turn it on ?!!!
    This is kind of Unacceptable !
    I tried Toshiba Bluetooth Stack, and it had the same problem. Also, I didn't like the way it worked (style and everything) ... so I uninstalled it & returned to the original BT version in pc.
    I've searched for answers with no luck & now I'm desperate for the answer !
    Plz anyone who knows how to solve this issue, help me Plz ??!
    If my email is needed : [[email protected]]

    ok I tried to turn it off with fn + f8 ... wlan turns off with it too, that's natural, I know :)
    then I turned it on & I recieved a file from phone just fine ... that only worked ONE time !
    after that, sending/recieving files won't work ... on my phone it says ( cannot connect ) .... same thing when I restart bt monitor manually !!
    Also, I have tried going to ( C:\Program Files (x86)\TOSHIBA\Bluetooth Monitor ) folder
    there are other bt monitors like (btmon2) and (btmon64) but both of them are have same problem but has more time of activity !
    the problem itself isn't that its on or off ...
    it is on and it appears in the notification area ... but only works for only a short period of time ...
    or for (btmon2) I can say it works right after starting it ... then works for a while when its active (sending files or recieving files) ... but after a while with no activity (no sending/recieving) It Stops Working :(
    How can I fix the problem ???
    Mr. Tonny ? Anyone ??

  • Cannot send file from phone

    I have just moved over from my Nokia 6630 to an N70. Somewhere in the pairing process while setting up the new phone I have lost the ability to send files from either phone to the Mac via bluetooth.
    Everything else works fine. I can iSync and can send files from the Mac to both phones.
    I have deleted and re-paired without success.

    You ARE still on 10.4.3, right? Myself and many others had an identical problem, me with my Nokia 6670, after upgrading to 10.4.4. Ended up downgrading to 10.4.3. All working again.
    Looking at the list of supported phones on the Apple site, though, the N70 isn't there.

  • E52: Cannot send files via bluetooth

    Hi mates, I bought this smartphone 2 days ago and upgraded firware to version 052.003. Today for the first time I've tried to use the bluetooth connection to another phone (nokia 7210) and to the PC. The problem is that my new E52 cannot send files to other devices. I can send files from PC and from 7210 to E52 but not vice versa. In particular it seems that the bluetooth discovery doesn't  work. When I try to add a new paired device the phone does not do anything. It does not say "looking for devices" or something like that (I'm italian, so I don't know what it should say).
    Can anybody help me?
    Thanks

    And yes, it is.
    And on the other computer you're trying to send to?
    Have you tried deleting the following from ~/Library/Preferences/
    com.apple.BluetoothExplorer.plist
    com.apple.BluetoothFileExchange.plist
    com.apple.BluetoothSetupAssistant.plist
    and
    com.apple.Bluetooth.plist
    from /Library/Preferences/
    and then restarting and re-pairing the devices?

    i cannot send anything with nokia phone browser noir with pc suite application installer or file transfer. ive tryed also with

    what i dont understand is why i can send files from phone to pc with simple copy-paste? maybe the phone has some option wich doesnt allow files to be recived over usb cable,is that posible,i cant find that kind of option in my phone?

    my pc cannot connect to iphone 4 using bluetooth,says no bluetooth driver.

    What exactly are you trying to achieve by connecting via bluetooth? If you have a tethering plan, that's the only thing that's supported via bluetooth to a computer. It cannot sync or transfer files via bluetooth. Those are not features of the iPhone.

  • How do I transfer ring tones between ipad and non-apple phone using bluetooth

    Can I transfer ring tones between ipad and non-apple phone using bluetooth?

    No. iOS devices do not support file transfers between non-iOS devices over Bluetooth.
    They probably wouldn't work anyway, as iOS ringtones have to be in a specific format.

  • Cannot send file to XI ,and File Adapter Error in RWB- Adapter Monitor

    i develop the file to file scenario, and everything in Integration Builder is right, and the configuration is no problem
    but it cannot send file to XI, so the whole process
    cannot start. The file adapter seems not work
    how can i solve the problem?
    Thank you for your reply

    Hi Leo,
    I Guess you should first see if the file is being picked... for that do the following.
    While configuring your Sender File Adapter, let the mode be DELETE. This way, we will know if the file is being picked by the File adapter. The file will be deleted and you can be sure that it has been picked up.
    In your runtime workbench home, there will be a tab, Component Monitoring, click on it. Select status as all, and click on display. The components will be displayed on ur screen. In that, under Integration Server, there will be a link for Adapter Engine. Click on it. Now, scroll down, and u will see a link to adapter monitoring, there under FILE ADAPTER see the log of the file adapter
    and also, you can see the flow of your message in the integration engine in SXMB_MONI.
    <b>Do this and let us know what is happening...</b>
    Meanwhile i would also suggest you to go through the explanation of a simmilar scenario that i have explained below and compare it with what you have done..

    First check to make sure you have data turned on and not just Wi-Fi. From reading your question you seem to be saying e mail is working just not attached photos. What size are the photos as some HD photos can't be sent. Your camera may be set at a very high picture size and you can go to settings and lower the size and that may solve your mailing problem.
