-- Partially solved -- I did a fresh install of Ubuntu 13.10 to Sony Vaio. I had bluetooth file transfer (both ways) working nicely before that in 12.04. Now I faced this problem.
I managed to partially fix the problem of transferring files from phone to computer by doing the following: 1. I installed the package "gnome-user-share" 2. Started "Personal File Sharing" from Ubuntu menu 3. Added ticks to following boxes - Share public files over Bluetooth - Require remote devices to bond with this computer - Receive files in Downloads folder over Bluetooth - Notify about received files This solved the problem with receiving files from mobile device (Android in my case) to computer. Which is the most important part for me. But I still can't send files from computer to the mobile through Bluetooth. If I try this, I get the error message: "GDBus. Error:org.openobex.Error.Failed: Unable to request session" -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1148033 Title: GDBus.Error:org.openobex:Error.Failed: Unable to request session To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/indicator-bluetooth/+bug/1148033/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
