When I send a file to my phone from my Mac via Bluetooth the file extension gets doubled... So if I sent test.jpg it comes to the phone as test.jpg.jpg - anyone know why?

Hello, someone can tell me how to transfer more files via bluetooth???? I have an HTC Touch Viva.... Tanks!
you need to be more specific.
Why if i select 2 or more files in File explorer i can't transfer them via bluetooth? I can only transfer them one by one....
because that's how file explorer is built....
if i'm not mistaken you can send multiple files in resco explorer
ive paired and it looks good but when i try to send a file it always says fail at the end..

are you talking Bluetooth?
my understanding is file transfer via BT is not possible in stock. For the G1 developers like cyanogen have come up with apps for that which work, and i expect in his first custom ROM for Nexus One it will be included.
i can transfer certain file types from my laptop to my not-yet-rooted-N1, e.g., *.png, *.mp3. for other file types that generate an error message, my workaround is to add the file extension ".png" to the file so it gets transferred to my and then from the N1 remove the .png extension. all files are stored on the sdcard in a folder called Bluetoooth.
Thanks Cortez.
It works.
Hello all,
I just figured out that android to android file transfers are limited my file type. I tried to send an epub and an apk file from my HTC Hero to the other HTC Hero both running stock and rooted Android 2.1 and no luck.
Is there a way, a hack, to allow sending all the file types through bluetooth?
Thanks!
Hello everyone,
I'm an android user, with a Galaxy Nexus running 4.2.1.
I have a QNAP NAS which I can easily access from my android phone via WebDav or Ftp.
Currently, when I select a file (doc, xls), it downloads the file to my phone and then opens it in in it's respective application.
When I edit the file and save it, the changes are only made to the local file which was downloaded to my phone. I then have to upload the file back to the server and overwrite the existing file. Such a pain!
Are there any methods or applications that will open the file directly from the server? Such that edits and saves are done on the server instead of on my phone?
Thanks,
Daxton

try File Expert, I think could help you.
Thanks Ikubik,
Unfortunately File Expert doesn't work.
It connects via FTP and gives me a directory listing.
However, when clicking on a file, it says "Opening Directory..." and then does nothing. It doesn't even appear to download anything either.
This is really chapping my a**. You'd think this would be possible??
I've tried FX file manager - connects via ftp - only opens files as read-only
Solid Explorer - connects via ftp - saves files locally for editing & changes are not made on the server
X-Plore, couldn't establish connection
Kingsoft Office - Has WebDav support which refused to connect
ES File Manger - Same result as Solid Explorer
How to people manage their files on the go?
I want to get away from online cloud services and manage my own data. Apparently, this is more difficult that I thought.
I found an application call FolderSync which keeps your server files synchronized with your android. But, it downloads all of your network files to your phone. I've got 13 gigs of documents = no thanks.
Any other suggestions?
