I have a mac and I can't get music to transfer...

It's super easy to pair it and everything, but when I try to send a file, it gives me an error message saying "bad request". Haven't tried pics, yet, but something tells me I'll get the same result... any idea what's up?

    I'm trying to put some good ol' mp3s on there (because I don't feel like buying them) from my computer. But when I choose the file and press send, it processes the request for about 2 seconds then says operation failed: bad request. Pictures work fine, by the way. Just checked it out. Why music doens't work too is a mystery...

  • matthew_bage Jun 28, 2009

    bluetooth. And I'm just using the bluetooth tools they have on the mac to begin with.

  • matthew_bage Jun 28, 2009

    mmmmmk... first, I went to the bluetooth options on my phone and went through the pairing process with my computer. Once paired, I tried connecting to it via phone, but that failed. So, in hopes of bypassing the oddity, under the bluetooth menu on my mac, I went to send file, selected my phone, and it connected easily enough. After that, I selected the file and tried to send it to the phone, but the phone said something about the connection being interrupted. After that, I tried browsing the files on my phone and addin the file that way, but once again, all I got was the *bad request* message. You wouldn't ahppen to know if they put blocks on these stupid things, would you?


  • matthew_bage Jun 28, 2009

    can I use just any old cable?

  • matthew_bage Jun 28, 2009

    mehhh... it's still being difficult. So do I need some special USB cable? My mac won't recognize it when I use a standard USB connection.


  • matthew_bage Jun 28, 2009

    I think those verizon bastards just sabotaged my phone.... oh well.

  • matthew_bage Jun 29, 2009

    I'm pretty sure it's a motorola razr v3 or G3 or whatever. Something in the 3 category.

    if via bluetooth then explain what you are doing to try and synch the data , if via usb then again explain what you are doing ( when I say explain I mean step by step what you are doing and what software you are trying to use to synch the data )

  • Anonymous Jun 28, 2009

    on your phone ensure that anything with regards to security ie making the phone hidden or anything like that is disabled ( check the phones manuals )

    When you go through the setup process click on the bluetooth icon at the top and go to setup bluetooth device and select continue and select mobile as the radio button for the device type and click on next / continue and then when it finds your mobile re add it and when it goes through the pairing process select the open method so you dont have to enter any pairing codes etc and try that.


  • Anonymous Jun 28, 2009

    The easiest method would be to use USB and then it will mount your phone as a disk image on your desktop and you can navigate to the correct directory on your phone or phones memory card and just copy it across ( will be a lot faster then bluetooth )

Cant pair phone with jabra bt2050 needs a passcode

How to pair and Send Music to a Phone Via Bluetooth

Bluetooth is a type of technology found in electronics that allows you to send and receive signals and files wirelessly. Most commonly used in cell phone headsets, many people also use Bluetooth to transfer data. There is no set protocol for all devices, so instructions for use vary from one device to another. Check out the following loose guidelines for sending music from one Bluetooth phone to another, or from a Bluetooth-enabled computer to phone.


Instructions


Verify that Bluetooth is turned on or enabled in both your devices. Most cell phones will have a Bluetooth menu in their Settings or Tools. For computers, you may see a Bluetooth icon in your system tray. If unsure, check your product manual for specific instructions.

Follow the instructions to pair (connect) your two devices. If you are asked for a passkey, try entering 0000 which is usually the default for any device.


When prompted on the other device, give permission for the original device to access it.

If transferring from phone to phone

Navigate to the song you want to send and hit the button that takes you to the options menu. Choose the option to send your song; depending on the brand of phone it may say "Send" or "Move."

The next menu should ask if you want to use a text message or Bluetooth to move or send the file. Choose Bluetooth.


When prompted on the phone receiving the file, accept it.
If transferring from computer to phone


Look for an option to browse the contents of the phone. Navigate to the Music or Multimedia folder on your phone.

Navigate to the place on your computer where your music file is kept in a separate window.

Drag the file from its original location to the correct folder on your phone.


Accept the file when prompted by your phone.



Tips & Warnings

Pairing is usually the most difficult part of the process. Make sure you read your manual on both devices if it isn't working for you. If you don't see the menu to move or send your music, your phone manufacturer may not allow it. Check your manual or with your carrier's tech support website. This process usually applies to MP3s and not ringtones.
