When is the bluetooth file transfer to Android going to be fixed?!

Unable to properly connect an Android phone using Bluetooth File Exchange on MacBook Pro with 10.8.2. The Mac is able to connect to the phone, but only to send files or browse, not get them from the phone. This was not the case with the same phone and a MacBook Pro with 10.6. Any fixes?

I uploaded ios 8.0.2 on my iPhone 6 128 GB today 9-29-14 due to problems with Bluetooth talking to my ReSound Linx hearing aids to hopefully fix the problem. It sounds like the Bluetooth looses connection to the hearing aids and turns them off for about 1 1/2 minutes, then they come back on and I can hear again. I understand there are problems with Bluetooth and cars using the phone. I believe this Bluetooth problem is causing my hearing aid problem as my hearing aids connect to the iPhone via Bluetooth and the ReSound Smart App. I tried the reset fix, Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings as some have suggested but that did not resolve this issue either. I can't believe Apple is not talking about this ios 8.0.2 Bluetooth problem. This affects my everyday life in that I cannot hear when the Bluetooth drops.Try working with your hearing dropping every few minutes! If Apple wants in the Health field, I suggest they take their QA a little bit more serious than they are at present. Whomever was responsible for testing ios 8, 8.0.1 & 8.0.2 should be fired! This is causing more trouble than anyone can imagine. I understand the car - Bluetooth problem but think about the fact that if every time the Bluetooth drops, you can't hear.My job could be in jeopardy. I posted the problem to Apple Support and they will not even have the decency to respond with even a "we are sorry." How long do I have to go without being able to hear before Apple responds??????

  • Hide the Bluetooth File Transfer Window

    Can anyone give me any clues as to how I could stop the File transfer WIndow appearing when I Bluetooth an image from phone to my Mac?
    It is the Obex Agent window. That says Incoming File etc
    It will appear over any open applications right in the centre of the screen. I have tried instantly hiding it when it appears with Applescript but this is not quite good enough for my purposes.
    Any idea how I can ideally disable it. Or at least move its location.
    Or a better place to ask for help?
    Thanks
    Gavin

    Apple aren't here. You won't get a response from Apple on this user-to-user help forum.
    Although speculation on Apple policies is not permitted on this forum, it has been previously speculated frequently, that the reasons for not allowing Bluetooth file transfers are:
    1) Bluetooth is too slow for transferring multi-megabyte / gigabyte media files that iOS devices typically store. There are much faster ways of transferring files, not limited by arbitrary distances Bluetooth is.
    2) Allowing file transfers would allow illegal sharing of copyrighted music and video files. Apple has a duty to protect such files from easy sharing due to agreements with the copyright holders for whom they sell this copyrighted content in the iTunes Store.

  • Why the Bluetooth file transfer to other smart devices is not supported by apple? I am seeing only the lame excuse "that it only supports apple devices and not other". Knowing that only I'm posting this question to apple support people...

    APPLE never answers this question. I love apple products but this kind of useless restriction drawing itself back to the underground...they only answer what the device can do and they never answer why the device can't do that? I want to directly post this question to apple.

  • When is the h.264 bit rate issue going to be fixed?

    If you export a project in After Effects using the H.264 codec the file you export does not have the correct bitrate. Meaning if you export a video at 1mbps compression rate you will not get a video that has 1mbps bitrate. This has been an issue since day one along with header issues in the .mp4 file. Please do not tell me not to use AE to create H.264, this is what we used and works fine in CS4. The same issues arrises when you use Adobe Media Encoder CS5.
    Does anyone have a solution or anyone from Adobe have any suggestions?

    Thanks but that didn't help.
    I believe I have found out the actual issue. CS5 will not render a project above the lowest bitrate of the source video for H.264. So if you have a video file at 300kbps it cannot be rendered above that point. This is a problem when you understand how bitrates\codecs work. Not all codecs need an extremely high bitrate in order for the quality of the content to look good. We use the TechSmith screen capture codec a lot. This codec is create for screen capturing, it provides a low bitrate file which is small in size and easy to handle. We have been using this combination with the CS package since before it was CS. The videos we procude look great in CS4  but awful in CS5. When using mediainfo to check out a video file compressed in CS5 it gives us a Bit Rate and a Normal Bit Rate. Normal bit rate is what is requested, say 1mbps and the actual Bit Rate is what the source material was.
    In any case the video files look like crap because a 250kbps .mp4 looks awful compaired to a 250kbps video using the TSCC codec. So yeah, not using CS5 and most likely won't be doing any more upgrades in a while. I'm responsible for purchasing over 10 licenses. Just wanted to let Adobe know they won't be getting that money again for a while until they figure out there compression issues.

    When I try to open a 'Pages' file the Bluetooth File Exchange pops up and asks for a bluetooth device to send this file to!!! Please can anyone help?

    Subject: WHEN I TRY TO OPEN A PDF FILE, THE READER OPENS  HUNDREDS OF MULTIPLE BLANK PAGES .
    Something is definitely wrong with your install of Reader.
    A PDF consists of only the number of pages it was created with.  Reader can and will only open those pages... IF it's installed and working properly.
    Opening multiple blank pages from a document which contains none is a clear sign that the software isn't functioning. It's like putting a movie into a DVD player, and your TV starts a picture slide show of your last Summer's vacation. Not possible unless there's something seriously wrong.
    Uninstall Reader 9.
    Use either Adobe's clean uninstaller or Windows Installer Cleanup Utility (http://download.microsoft.com/download/e/9/d/e9d80355-7ab4-45b8-80e8-983a48d5e1bd/msicuu2. exe) to remove all Reader installer files from your system.
    Reinstall Reader 9 from a new download (do not use the old one if you still have it on your system)

  • Bluetooth file transfer from BB Z10 to Windows 7 Laptop

    I have my BBZ10 (OS 10.2.0.424) successfully paired with Windows 7 Laptop. I often use the BBZ10 BT Internet Teethering. It works very well.
    However, when I want to transfer a file from BBZ10 to my Laptop. I follow this process
    In the background the Internet Teethering is ON, and working
    select the file in Z10 File Manager.
    click on share icon to share using BLUETOOTH
    Before pressing the name of my paired devices on Z10. I click Bluetooth icon on laptop and select 'receive a file'. This opens a box showing the laptop is waiting in receive mode.
    Then I select my paired computer name on Z10 to initiate transfer.
    The transfer bar appears on Z10 showing the progress, but in 4-5 seconds, it says 'TRANSFER CANCELLED'.
     And on my laptop it says 'BLUETOOTH FILE TRANSFER NOT COMPLETED'.
    i have used exactly same process with my BB 9800 several times with success.
    Another thing I note is, if the Internet teethering is OFF, I cannot turn BT connection to the laptop on. It come up with error message ' Cant' connect , you must turn on internet teethering on yoru device.'
    Please troubleshoot.

    hi eddie-n200,
    Can you send a file from the laptop to the cellphone? If you can, check if the "Allow remote devices to browse, send, and receive pictures, music, and other files" option is enabled on the BT settings:
    Spoiler (Highlight to read)
    As an alternative, you may also want to try Bluesoleil or similar software to send/receive from the laptop.
    Edit: Added image
    Hope this helps

  • Bluetooth file transfer from Sharp GX29 mobile phone to iBook

    hello all,
    got a new sharp gx29 mobile phone.
    problem:
    cannot send files via bluetooth to my ibook.
    but can send from ibook to Sharp.
    when trying to send from phone, a dialog window opens on mac os x, asking whether accept or cancel the transfer.
    no matter how many times i click on accept, nothing happens, sometimes it hits it, and goes further to a transfer dialog window with the transfer progress bar, but it starts to transfer and stops at about 5-10%, and nothing happens.
    Any one has Sharp GX series and problems like me?
    I know that Sharp is not supported by isync, but that's not what I am trying to do (isync), just a normal file transfer.
    Thnx
    Tom

    I myself have missed the obvious many times so I'm going to ask.
    In System Preferences/Bluetooth/Sharing. Do you have: Bluetooth File Transfer and File Exchange checked???? Then make sure your settings in the pop up menus on the right are correct.
    If you have everything set properly in Bluetooth preferences on your iBook then you might try the Sharp web site for troubleshooting since you can't send files via Bluetooth to your iBook, not the other way around. Sounds like maybe your Sharp possibly has something blocked somewhere...

  • Disable Bluetooth File Transfer - Windows 7

    How do I disable Bluetooth file transfer for Windows 7? I am planning to see if it can be done via Group Policy (custom adm or GPP) or by creating a power shell script.

    Hi,
    For Bluetooth devices, try this :

  • Nokia lumia 610 ringtone,and bluetooth file transf...

    i have nokia 610 and i have donwloaded a ringtone from marketplace i mean song and i want to set it as my ringtone 
    what should i do in order to set that song as my ringing tone pls tell
    and more thing if i want to send any file to other mobile do i need a special software or anything like that 
    thank you
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Once you have downloaded and saved the new ringtone, you can set it as your ringtone by going to Settings>Ringtones&Sounds>Ringtone, Scroll to the top because this is where you will find all your downloaded ringtone. Just select the one you want to use.
    Your Lumia 610 does not support bluetooth file transfer for the moment. However, this feature will be added with the next WP7.8 update which is due soon. In the mean time you can transfer files to other phones by using Skydrive or by emailing. 

  • Samsung Charge - Hyundi Santa Fe Bluetooth File Transfer

    I connect via bluetooth between the subject devices but cannot effect a file transfer of contacts from phone to car.  Have tried the Bluetooth Fike Transfer app but it errors and doesn't work.  Any idea whe Samsung will add the ,issing drivers to do this file transfer or any other suggestions?  Kind of screwa up the purpose of "hands free driving" if you can't voice dial a contact.  Thanks,

    Hello billhotchmuth,
    I understand the convenience that you can get from having the voice dial feature fully integrated to your car.  May I ask what year is your vehicle? Do you have the Touch Navigation system or just standard audio?  I have referenced our Charge Car Bluetooth guide and Hyundai's Bluetooth site and at this time the Charge does not have a listed compatibility with Hyundai vehicles.  While this does not mean it shouldn't pair at all but some features may not be available.  If you provide the vehicle details I can see what can be done to forward this information to Samsung.  Please let me know if I can assist further.

  • HT204387 can we get apple to make a fix to download that would enable the bluetooth file sharing with any deivce?

    can we get apple to make a fix to download that would enable the bluetooth file sharing with any deivce? i would like to to stay with Apple iphone but if they dont improve the lack of features.. i will move on and I know im not the only person to think like this.
    regards
    gavin_p

    There is not "fix" to be provided, Apple made a decision to not include the file sharing profile.
    You are welcome to provide feedback, but after six years, I would not hold your breath.

  • Is it possible when saving the psd file to have an automatic jpg file saved at the same time?

    My work involves preparing images for printing lightboxes and window installations.  My clients require to pre-approve the photos before printing.
    I usually save my files as psd but since the files are very large in this format I usually save another copy as a jpg file that has a much smaller file size.  This makes it possible for me to add these to a presentation and and send them to my client.
    Is it possible when saving the psd file to have an automatic jpg file saved at the same time?  Or do I still have to do this manually?

    If you save the document manually as a PSD file in Phtoshop not from within an Action, Script, Plugin or Droplette.  You may be able to write a Photoshop that would do as save as Jpeg,  And you should be able trigger its execution by setting up a Script Save event using the Script event manager.  When You do a manual save  the script should be triggered.  I wrote may be able to for I have never tried to write that script or set up a Script Manager Save event.  I have only use open events.

  • When I sync my iPhone 5 to Outlook 2010, the email addresses that I have listed as Email 1 for any given contact in my iPhone will be automatically moved to Email 3 in the Outlook file. Is there a way to fix this?

    When I sync my iPhone 5 to Outlook 2010, the email addresses that I have listed as Email 1 for any given contact in my iPhone will be automatically moved to Email 3 in the Outlook file. Is there a way to fix this?

    iCloud email supports 'plus' addressing. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Email_address#Address_tags
    So your friend could just add '+research' to the username part of your email address, and you setup a rule at icloud.com to put all emails sent to that address into a particular folder.
    For example:
    [email protected]
    There's no way to do it without rules on the server though.

  • FM GUI_UPLOAD gives PC036 "Error when opening the download file".

    Dear all
    I'm having a problem with a particular PC.
    A program which calls FM GUI_UPLOAD gives the error PC036 "Error when opening the download file".
    The file we are trying to upload is a text file, with tab delimiter.
    If the same user executes the same program from another PCs, it works fine.
    If another user executes the program in the "problematic" PC, it gives the error.
    So, the problem is PC-related.
    I checked SAP GUI Codepage, and was the same as other PCs.
    I cheched regional configuration, and was also the same as other PCs.
    The operating  system is Windows XP, and the SAP GUI version is 7.10,  File version 7100.2.7.3077, Build 967944 , Patch level 7.
    SAP version is ECC6.
    I searched across forums, SAP note, and the web, but I couldn't find anything.
    I would be grateful if someone could give me ideas.
    Thanks in advance

    Hello. The user accounts are have same privilegies (like both are "Power users")? Also the file system are the same in both PC NTFS or FAT32 (today i'm find FAT32 in enterprise ) If NTFS may be some Domain politics are not allow to save file correctly, or space are not enough....Try check this first...Regards.
