Please try these commands to find out if there is a general problem with your BT.

Do you have another bluetooth device in range? I'm trying to remember what I did to make it work...

I think I got it. Open file /etc/dbus-1/system.d/bluetooth.conf and add a section for all users, or only for your user:

Code: Select all

  <policy group="users">
    <allow own="org.bluez"/>
    <allow send_destination="org.bluez"/>
    <allow send_interface="org.bluez.Agent"/>
  </policy>
You may have to restart the bluetooth service, not really sure. The "Send file" option in the bluetooth applet should be enabled and working after that.

Did you restart the bluetooth service? Kill bluetooth-applet and restart that too.

Can you also try setting security to auto in /etc/bluetooth/hcid.conf? And make sure your user is in the netdev group.
