If you send a calendar event or contact, it is normally added directly to the corresponding application on the receiving phone. For example, if you send a calendar event to a compatible phone, the event is shown in that phone’s calendar application.

If you send another file type to a Windows computer, it is normally saved in the Bluetooth Exchange folder within your personal document folders.

nOn Windows XP, the path may be:

C:\Documents and Settings\[your username]\My Documents\Bluetooth Exchange

nOn Windows Vista, the path may be: C:\Users\[your username]\Documents

nOn Windows 7, the path may be:

C:\Users\[your username]\My Documents\Bluetooth Exchange Folder

If you send a file to another phone, the saved location may depend on the file type. For example, if you send an image file to another wireless phone, it may be saved in a folder named “Images.”
