Making Wireless Bluetooth Connections

To send or receive files using Bluetooth

If your computer includes Bluetooth wireless capabilities, it supports the following common protocols for transferring data. To use either protocol, both computers must support that protocol—check the other computer’s Bluetooth documentation.

FTP, meaning files can be copied into and out of shared directories (folders) by both computers. This service is equivalent to common network file sharing.

OPP (object push profile), meaning both computers can send certain types of Microsoft Outlook data to the other computer’s Bluetooth inbox, but cannot retrieve files from the other computer.

Sharing files with another Bluetooth device (FTP)

1.Double-click the Bluetooth icon in the taskbar.

2.In My Bluetooth Places, select and open the other device to view files in its shared directory.

3.Use Windows Explorer or other software to copy or move files between your computer and other other device.

Sending Outlook data to another Bluetooth device (OPP)

2.In My Bluetooth Places, select and open the other device.

3.To send a calendar item, note, or message, right-click the device’s inbox and select the option you want, then select the file to send. The file arrives in the device’s inbox directory.
