6.6.6 File Transfer Service
Overview
The File Transfer service allows this computer to perform file operations on the Bluetooth
Exchange Folder (and the folders and files it contains) of a remote device.
To use the File Transfer Service:
1. Right-click the Bluetooth icon and select Explore My Bluetooth Places.
2. Configure Windows Explorer so that the Folders pane is visible (View > Explorer
Bar > Folders).
3. In the Folders pane, select Entire Bluetooth Neighborhood
4. On the menu bar, select Bluetooth > Search For Devices.
5. In the Folders pane, expand Entire Bluetooth Neighborhood to show the devices in
the vicinity.
6. Select a device and expand that branch to view the Bluetooth Exchange Folder of
the remote device.
NOTE: If “Public Folder” is not available, the remote device is not
configured to allow remote file operations.
Use drag-and-drop to copy any file or folder contained in the Public Folder of the remote
device to the desired folder on this computer.
You can also drag-and-drop files or folders from this computer to the Public Folder (and its
sub-folders) of the remote device.
