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

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.
