How to send files over a Bluetooth connection from my Mac computer to my Samsung Galaxy?

Sending files over a Bluetooth connection from your Mac computer to your Samsung Galaxy is easy.

1. Create a Bluetooth connection between your Samsung Galaxy and your Mac computer as described in previous tutorials.

2. On your Mac, click on the Bluetooth icon on the top menu bar. You see the Bluetooth menu.

3. Click your paired Galaxy name "My Galaxy > Send file to device..." from the menu. You see the "Bluetooth File Exchange" app running.

4. Browse and select one or more files you want to send. And click "Send" button. You see a message "Waiting for "My Galaxy" to accept item.".

5. On you Galaxy, tap on "ACCEPT" on the "File Transfer" message box. You see file transfer progress reported on both Mac and Galaxy.

Once transfer is done, Galaxy will store pictures files under the "Gallery" app. Other files will be stored under the "My Files" app.
