I seriously can't figure out why I can now not wirelessly transfer files over Wi-Fi to my phone anymore. I've always used ES File Explorer to copy files over to my phone and now it just won't work. I've triple-checked every single setting I know about. Any ideas on how to fix this? I'm running Windows 8.1. It actually doesn't work on my tablet either.

And by that not meaning tethering or active syncing. I don't want to sync my phone. I just want to transfer a file (58mb) from my laptop to my HTC Tilt's storage card via bluetooth. Normally I use the USB cable and the phone will be detected and I can see it in Windows Explorer. Then I click on it like a drive and paste the file.
you don't have to actually "sync" it. You can disable all syncing and just use the file explorer. Or you can enable the ftp folder on your phone(under bluetooth settings). After which you can go to your bluetooth explorer on your PC then go file sharing or ftp etc. Your particular computer may be differnt than mine.
With official AT&T upgrade (2.2), I can connect to the phone from my Macbook Pro via Bluetooth, and browse.
I see all the directories, but no files at all.
Also, the "Send" button is grayed out, so I cant send files to my phone.
Is Bluetooth file transfer broken on this release?
Or am I just doing something wrong?

Get bluetooth file transfer app in market.
I haven't experienced any issues with bluetooth file transfer since the update. Running stock 2.2 Captivate, and a Windows 7 64 bit OS.
I see the same thing on my Mac, has been the same across multiple Captivate ROMs. I presume it's a Mac / Galaxy compatibility issue.
What's the easiest way to file transfer from PC to NC cm7 using bt?
using Bluetooth File Transfer and is so slow
Why not just use the USB cable or a wifi transfer app? Bluetooth on the Nook was never meant to be used

We use switch at the office and no wifi router or ap, got bt though. I use wifi router at home.
Anybody could direct to to easy wifi adhoc connection?
You can use myphone explorer to transfer files via wlan(and tons of more stuff) to your pc.
On another note, have anybody had problems receiving files but not sending?
For some reason I can send files to a phone, but I can't receive files from that phone over BT.
If there was no wifi in your working area, then BT is the only choice besides USB.
I had a mess trying to get BT file transfer working, ended up using adbWireless to push/pull the files I wanted.
Try File Expert from the Market. It's free and supports HTTP, FTP, SMB(Windows Network Share), and BT file transfer methods. Alternatively if booting from Internal Mem on Nook, copy files to MicroSD and the put MicroSD into Nook, if Booting from MicroSD, then insert MicroSD into Computer running Linux and copy files to Forth Partition(Should be the Biggest).

Drop box is also worth looking into, though like other suggestions it requires wifi.
Is it possible to push files from my Bionic to my laptop using Bluetooth, if it is I can not do this. This seems like a very basic operation.
I can push music from my phone to my laptop and it plays on my laptop fine.
I have downloded and used the app called "Bluetooth File Transfer" and it seems to work to some degree but not when I want to push, say, a photo from phone to laptop.
I have paird Bionic with laptop and laptop to phone, that works, I have sent file from laptop to Bionic no problems there. I have browsed phone with laptop using BT.
When I try to send file from Bionic to laptop I always get the same error message "Transfer Failed".
When I look into the Device Manager I find there is a number of drivers the laptop seems to want to download but never finds the right one.
When the Bluetooth File Transfer app runs it tells me I need the OBEXFTP and or Object Push Profile, but I can not seem to find the correct one for my Bionic.
Anyone know what is going on here?
P.S. Seems to me (like I said before) a very basic thing to want to do, I could do it with my old Imagio on the WM OS, why can I not do this on the BT 3.0?

I use blue tooth file transfer myself without problem. Maybe the problem is your laptop?

Having problems transferring files from my PC with bluetooth. It worked once then that's it. Windows 7 is also not finding drivers which may be pert of the problem.
Help?

Bluetooth is pretty rubbish for file transfers. Use WiFi it's much faster and has better range. Bluetooth is dodgy on the transformer series when WiFi is on as well.
Try air droid, es file explorer or WiFi file explorer, all do WiFi transfers.
