I have tried my I-mac computer, they have all been recognised and can all be connected, but they all dissconnect after about 4 seconds.
With regards your iMac once you have input pairing code your 520 should be listed if you click on Bluetooth icon in toolbar and if you click on it there is option to send file to 520. Conversely if you select say photo and then tap three dot icon at bottom right > share > Bluetooth > your iMac should be listed:

Lumia 520 Bluetooth Stutter

I am an IT Pro with numerous users with mobile devices. I recently started purchasing Lumia 520s as a replacement phone when users break their existing phones. I handed out three last week and all three users describe the same problem when using their device paired with their car audio system. Each user has a distinct vehicle with a different connectivity system.
The Lumia pair successfully with the car audio system and works properly for some amount of time. Then seemingly without warning when they are on a call (during or at the beginning) the phone audio begins to violently stutter. It cuts in and out rapidly (~ twice per second) to the point where audio is unintelligible. The only solution is to reboot the phone or turn bluetooth off/on.
All three users seem to be on the latest software release. I am very puzzled because of the consistency of the issue, but I can find no consistent chatter of this issue on the Internet and that seems odd to me given the statistics that I am experiencing.
Any thoughts?

hi mate,
have you tried performing a soft reset? if that does not work, then you may need to perform a hard reset, and failing that, a trip to Nokia Care is in order.

That's normal if you're not using the link. Windows Phone does this to save battery. It will reconnect automatically as traffic appears.

Hi Ignorant84,
Welcome to the forum!
Can you tell us the format of the video that you sent to the phone? Usually, sent videos are stored on "Saved pictures" album under Photos hub.

Bluetooth Drivers for Lumia 520

Windows Vista can't find bluetooth drivers for Lumia 520. Where can I download these from?

File Transfer Protocol is not supported in Windows Phone. To my knowledge you can use OBEX to transfer files provided obviously both sides support this.

Bluetooth Handset - Lumia 520 cant find headset

I got a plantronics M50 Bluetooth headset and my Lumia 520 can't find it. Why won't it connect? Its works for my other devices that have Bluetooth.

Are you able to connect another Bluetooth headset to the 520? Disable the Bluetooth on both devices and enable them. Check if the phone will be able to find the Bluetooth headset this time. You may refer to below link for the Plantronics M50 user manual.

Got this review of Lumia 720 at flipkart.com..an online shopping website in India..how much of this is true??
i intend to buy a 720 but this...
"I hate neither Windows 8 nor Nokia. But I really do hate their combination - Nokia Lumia 720. I own this phone for more than a month and now I really want to get rid of this. I want to dicuss only the cons of this phone, as all the pros (if there is any) will be ignored with the intensity of the cons.
1. No dedicated folder structure. Nothing like a "Gallery" or "My Files". So there is no question of copying files from one folder to another because there is no folder at all.
2. Its true than you can use a external memory card. But the only action you can perform on the files in your memory card is delete. No copy , paste or even "Rename". If you have to do any of these you have to connect the phone to a Computer.
3. Yes, Bluetooth is there. But you cannot rename your bluetooth. Ok fine. What is there in a name! But what happens to the files you recieve via bluetooth. If you are lucky, you will find them in your "Saved Pictures" . But in most the cases you wont see your recieved files at all.
4. You cant download a video file. Its true that there are you tube downloader applications. But you can view these videos only within these apllications . You cant save them to your SD card. Some may ask what is the big issue in it. But guys, these video applications use the phone's internal storage memory and eventually the phone begins to hang.
5. The most funny thing I found in this phone is "File multiplication". Suppose you took a photograph or downlaoded a music file today. Tommorrow you can see 2 copies
of it in your phone. The next day 3, then 4 and so on. But if you delete any one of these, all will be gone Dont think that any virus has affected my phone. Bacuse form day 1 its so.
(Combining points 4 and 5 together and a previous comment. Somebody said its possible to download videos using UC browser. First thing , UC Browser for windows itself is a piece of **bleep**. It hangs every 1 minute. Second, if you download a video and export it your phone, sometimes it gets exported and sometimes not. If luckily it got exported, it begins to multiply as I said in point 5)
6, The battery. With the internet and all the background tasks OFF, and with no live tiles on the home screen, the maximum time I got with the battery is 11 hours. If i turn all features on, it drains in 5-7 hours.
7. You cannot open the PDF or .txt files present in your SD card. Only those PDF files you download via internet can be opened. Again you cannot PDFs you download in your SD card.
8. Applications can be saved to phone only, not in SD card.
9. I still dont know what is happening to my internal memory and what is occupying it. Anyway its full now. And only thing I could do is to uninstall the present applications.
10. These comments are from my experience for more than a month. Today I dont have this phone to experience not bacause I sold it, but because its dead now. For any other phone you can try removing the battery, re-inserting it and restarting. But what can you do with this internal battery?????
Again I want to tell you an awkward experience with this phone. I am a techie and has a habit of listening to music while coding. One day in office, I connected the Nokia headset and started the music. But music was playing via loudspeaker only. It was not recognizing the headset at all. I tried to stop the music. But none of the keys worked, Not the pause button, not the volume keys, not the back button. I tried to switch the phone off. But it didnt work either. I had to cover the loudspeaker with my fingertip for about 10 minutes helpless and suddenly the phone switched off. With relief I removed my fingertips and I couldnt believe what happened . Music was still being played from the Switched Off phone. Again for the next 2-3 minutes I had to cover the loudspeaker before the music stopped. I switched it ON again only after reaching home. If I had sold the phone that day itself. I wouldno have to keep a dead phone now in my hands."

I got a Nokia Lumia 520 via Vodafone 6 weeks ago. The other night the screen froze completely and I couldn't do anything, even turn the phone off. I looked online at suggestions and tried to reset the phone, but nothing happened. So I then decided to take out the battery. I followed the online instructions for removing the back, and the screen just shattered. When I went into the Vodafone shop they didn't believe that the phone had crashed before the screen cracked and won't do a free repair. On top of that, I have lost all my contact numbers because they couldn't retrieve them via bluetooth because the phone wasn't working. Apparently with these windows phones the contacts are saved to the phone, not the Sim, so I am now completely stressed out, have lost numbers that have been transferred from phone to phone for over 10 years and have a huge bill to pay. I am not at all happy. The only reason I bought a Nokia was because I have had several others over the years which have been brilliant -this one is definitely not and I think Nokia should be compensating people if this is a common problem.
Your phone contacts are saved to your windows live account, you can go to www.live.com, login with the account that u used on your phone, and export contacts to a file.
Also if you use the same live account on a windows phone, contacts will be restored to the phone
The silence will fall

Lumia 520 voice calling

I'm the new owner of a Lumia 520, and a very fine phone it is too.
I use the voice calling facility with my car's bluetooth hands free kit (Nokia CK-7W) which works well, but I have one little niggle with it. The initial 'say the name now' tone and the read-back confirmation of the name are extremely quiet through the bluetooth kit, almost inaudible in fact. The volume of the call itself is fine, which leads me to believe they are sent from the phone at low level.
Is there any way of increasing the volume of these notifications?

Thanks for the update, SonicBlue. Let's further verify if the issue is SW related or not. Try the following steps and see if the 'call' voice command will work:
1. Reboot the phone. Press and hold the volume down & the power key for 10-15 seconds until it vibrates and restarts. This won't erase any of your files, but you will need to re-set up the date & time settings.
2. Since the phone is already running Lumia Cyan, try checking if the system apps have already been updated as well. Go to Settings > swipe to applications > store > check for updates.
3. Try to use the speech feature using another language pack. This will help verify if the issue is related to the English UK language pack that you're currently using or not. Make sure that the phone's regional settings are correctly set as well. Some commands only work within supported countries. You can check this link for info about the availability of voice commands per country: Feature and service availability - Go to Speech.
Let us know the outcome.
