Getting Connected 85

To beam information to a Bluetooth-enabled device such as another phone, create a Bluetooth partnership and then do steps 3 to 6 in the above procedure.

Notes

If the computer or device you want to beam to cannot be detected by your phone, make sure that it is turned on, discoverable and within close range (8 meters) of your phone.

The default folder on your computer where beamed items are stored may be

C:\Documents and Settings\your_username\My Documents.

If your computer’s Bluetooth adapter is installed using a third-party provided driver, the folder location where it stores beamed items will be indicated in the Information Exchange tab of the Bluetooth Configuration utility.

4.The Add Bluetooth Device Wizard opens. Select the My device is set up and ready to be found check box, then click Next
