I have a Samsung Galaxy S3 and I've paired it to my Mac. It was all working fine up until about a week ago, but now when I try to "Send file to device" nothing happens...

Question

I've had my Mac and my Samsung for about 2 yeas now and I haven't had any problems with the two in regards to Bluetooth. As of about a week ago, I could no longer send files from my Mac to my Samsung. I don't know what has gone wrong, but the devices are still paired and I haven't changed any settings. I don't understand how it can just stop working
When I click the "send File to device" option, it doesn't freeze or give me any notice stating the devices are not connected, it just does nothing.

Answer 1

I have the opposite problem. I cannot "browse device".
I have a Samsung Galaxy S3 mini which was working fabulously through Kies and Bluetooth (on Lion) until I upgraded to Mavericks about 3 weeks ago.
Now, when I go to Bluetooth and "Browse Device", the following happens:
The Mac will eventually find the phone, say "connected" then it will say "the device does not have the necessary services".  This is despite the fact that both are discoverable and have been previously paired.
Bizzarely though, I can send a file from my Mac to my phone through the "send file" command.  That works fine....
Is there something I am doing wrong or is this problem just symptomatic of the ongoing Apple-Samsung spat?
And yes, I know that Kies is now no longer supported by Mavericks and vice versa (boo!), so I have had to use other rather cranky solutions (Android File Transfer) and a faffy google calendar sync to sort the rest of the compatability problems out. The Bluetooth issue is just odd though. 
If this is just an Apple-Samsung software war problem, I really wish both would grow up.  Many people no longer care who made what first, we just want stuff that works.  If iPhone contracts were cheaper, I would get one, but I refuse to pay more than £15 p/m for a mobile phone, sorry Apple.
