I decided to delete the paired PC from the N900, uninstall PC Suite from the PC, restart the N900 and the PC, reinstall PC Suite on the PC, reset the paired bluetooth device passkey, so pretty much got rid of everything and started fresh, and it worked. I was again able to sync to PC Suite over bluetooth, the N900 folders showed up again, the N900 contacts showed up again on PC Suite on the PC. If the same issue happens again, I'll try this same sequence again.

This is to communicate with PC Suite on a paired PC. This was not the "Transfer and sync" function under the Settings button on the N900.

I've always been able to do PC Suite perfectly with BT. I just can't click on a file and send it to the PC. Very strange, I've always wondered if it was related to the 3 or 4 driver failures when you first connect the N900 to the PC.

I have not been able to use the "Transfer and sync" function either. I tried playing with it and when I click to "Select a device" it searches indefinitely and no devices show up on the N900. But with bluetooth the N900 does pick up the PC and I'm able to sync with PC Suite.

At least you can send files to the PC through PC suite. If your N900 is paired with your PC, you can also just open the N900 through "My Computer" (if you're on a Windows system) and drag and drop files whever you like.

I cant send photos to my laptop by bluetooth. It works to other phones. My pc cant find the necessary device drivers and I gave up with pc suite when it told me to install OVI and then said it doesnt support n900.

I just tried going to my computer to drag and drop and could se an icon called n900 but then got a message about FTP not ok, and now when I go to my computer its not showing as a device.

So annoying, all I want to do is bluetooth photos, surely this is possible??

thanks for that. Way over my head I'm afraid.... basically with my n95, I switched my bluetooth on, my laptop immediately knew it was there and image manager kicked in and stored all my new images via bluetooth.

What is the equivalent of this, it just must be possible to bluetooth photos to the pc....

mind you I cant make groups in contacts for sending emails to all my staff, so maybe this is just another basic 'missing feature!'

Problem is there are BT issues, so that's why I was suggesting you may look at the other thread.
