    If other bluetooth devices work, contact Nokia or your phone service provider for an update - some service providers do not allow file transfers (called object exchange) over bluetooth.

    Sounds like the problem could well be with the Nokia drivers - or if they're from the same service provider, that service provider.

    I think the service provider is not the issue I think the problem with both the laptop Bluetooth v3 and Nokia N8 Bluetooth v3!

    We have the same problem with a new Dell Inspiron N5110 laptop.

    With an HTC Evo 4G phone, we can connect -- discover and pair with the the laptop.  The phone can receive files from the computer.

    But the computer *cannot* receive files over Bluetooth from the the phone!!

    A message comes up saying something like "target not allowed" or something like that.

    Normally, on other computers, when a file is sent from the phone to a laptop, a popup box comes up on the laptop saying something like "Do you wish to authorize this file transfer"... and you have to click "yes" or "no."

    But that "authorization popup" never comes up on the N5110!!  There is no way authorize the reception of the file from the Evo 4G phone!!

    We worked with the free Dell Tech Support on this for hours today!!  They got on the "remote connect" and reinstalled drivers, looked at settings, etc. but nothing they did worked!!

    We had a similar problem on an HP laptop (tho' that problem cropped up when using an external Bluetooth USB dongle) whereas the N5110 has Bluetooth built in.

    So it seems clear that it is a Dell Bluetooth Driver issue!!

    Please let us know when this has been fixed!!  We really want to be able to send files over Bluetooth.

    thank you :))

    Have you installed the Nokia driver?

    Does your service provider permit OBEX (object exchange)?   Some will block it between the PC and phone.
