Question Posted Tuesday September 26 2006, 8:17 pm
Is there any program that allows you to send pictures from your bluetooth cell phone onto the computer? I have a windows XP and I know that Mac's have something like that. But I really dont want to buy a mac. This is urgent! I already tried some things off the internet like BlueShare and Something else like that.
Anybody have any ideas? Website appriciated!
THANK YOU! RESPOND ASAP

Do you have bluetooth hardware installed in your computer?
If not, (and I'm presuming you live in the USA), Newegg.com sells USB bluetooth adapters from $4.99, so you might want to start there, here's a search to get you started.
If you DO already have the hardware, then make sure your Bluetooth is activated (check My Computer for "My Bluetooth Places") and turn it on through the control panel. Then, pair the computer with your phone or device like you would with a headset. Then you can use OBEX object push (Supported by basically all phones, devices and bluetooth computers on the market) to send files from the phone like you would if you were sending them to another phone.
