Jolla => Mac OS X: Bluetooth transfer

Hi together not a question, just an answer:

There are several "informations" on the net that it would be impossible to transfer files from jolla to Mac OS X, with the idea, that there is a bug in Jolla.

But the people forgot to activate the bluetooth-service in OS X to receive files.

on Mac: 1. Open the "Bluetooth-Setup" from the system-settings. Here you can configure bluetooth devices.

  1. Press the button "Freigabe-Setup" (in german, in english "enabling setup" perhaps), the button left of the "other options"

  2. Activate the check-box left of the service "Bluetooth Free..."

  3. Select the option of "receive object" : accept and save ("ask" doesn't work for me).

  4. Select a destination-folder (without it, it doesn't work for me).

that all. Happy bluetooth-ing
