4.Select the Playback tab.

PIM items sent from the Windows 7 operating system cannot be received correctly

Symptom: Personal Information Manager (PIM) items sent from the Windows 7 operating system cannot be received correctly into the address book of any other Bluetooth-enabled device.

Action: The Windows 7 operating system sends PIM items in XML format, but most Bluetooth-enabled devices handle PIM items in vCard format. If another Bluetooth-enabled device can receive a file through Bluetooth, a PIM item sent from the Windows 7 operating system system might be saved as a file with the extension contact.
