Is so infuriating!!!! I've just wasted an hour of my life trying to move some snaps of my easter camping break from my phone to my PC, and the bloody thing won't connect. I can push files from my pc to my phone, but cannot view the phone in windows explorer or receive files sent from it (phone cannot connect).

Gah!

Abort, retry, fail...?

You're lucky. I just wasted 25 seconds of mine reading and replying.

At least my time was invested in the pursuit of something constructive.

Check your Bluetooth settings on your phone,. There should be an option (though it's not on all phones) called "My Phone's Visability", make sure it's turned on.

If that fails, buy a USB data cable for it!

that was the first thing I checked.

The phone is on it's way out, I want to move the pics before I upgrade, and it has worked fine with the Bluetooth dongle before now.
