Problem sending images via BT

3 replies · 1,717 views · Started 19 December 2002

I'm having some problems sending images from my 7650 to my iPAQ 3970 via Bluetooth. When sending, the iPAQ identifies the incoming object as a PIM object, and happily accepts it. Or so it led me to believe. Subsequent searches for JPG fileshave turned up nothing that I sent over

Infrared seems to work fine. Can't figure out why this isn't working over Bluetooth. Is anyone having this problem as well?

Hi ghoonk. There is a FAQ about your issues. Do take a look. In there you will find your answer. This question you asked had been resolve.

I'd hate to sound rude, but the reason I asked was because the answer wasn't addressed in the FAQ. Searched on everything related to Bluetooth, but nothing related to the inability of the iPAQ to receive image files as something other than PIM Objects.

I *may* stand corrected, but my searches in the Forum using 'Bluetooth' as a keyword has not turned up anything relevant either.

So, to address your concern, I *have* searched the Forum, and read the FAQs. And the bloody useless manual too.

Oh, another thing. I'm not asking about sending images from the PPC to the 7650. That works fine for me over BT and IR. I'm asking about sending images from the 7650 to the PPC. PPC says it's got the files, but god knows where they've gone to. Can't find the images on my PPC. That's the problem.

Okay, I just noticed this:

Sending an image from my 7650 to my iPAQ 3970, the image gets stored in the Temp directory.

I'm probably not the only one experiencing the problem, but it appears to be a PPC issue, so I'll take it up with the PPC forums instead.
