[Bug 872044] Re: Bluetooth 'Send files' returns permission denied error

 

Hi Peter, we need more specifics what is not working. Does it fail when
sending files from the phone to Ubuntu 12.04, or from Ubuntu to the
phone?

In Personal File Sharing, the "This feature cannot be enabled..."
message is not related to bluetooth file transfer, you can ignore it.
The "Receive files in Downloads folder over Bluetooth" must be checked
for other devices to send files to Ubuntu over bluetooth.

Bug description:
  Gnome 3 bluetooth manager cannot send files to my HTC Desire phone,
  (or any phone that I could try) Gnome2 bluetooth manager would send
  some form of authorisation request when first sending a file to my
  phone, which i would accept on the phone and then all future files
  could be sent with a simple 'accept?' message on the phone, on any
  gnome3 setup i have tried there is not authorisation request and i
  believe this is what leads to a permission denied error on screen
  (video attached)
