Help Syncing photos with bluetooth

[BackyardChicks]

I am new to smartphones and android.

How do I get my Optimus T to transfer my photos from the phone to my Windows 7 (64 bit) computer using bluetooth? With my old (not smart) phone, I just selected the photos and sent them (to Windows XP) with bluetooth. (New computer, new phone.)

Windows Mobile Device Center connects with my Win Mobile 5 pda, but not my Optimus (or my old Propel.)

I have transferred my photos using the USB cable, I would prefer to do it via bluetooth.

I have paired the computer and the phone. I cannot get the phone to transfer the photos.

Thanks

Hello BackyardChicks. <----- Great user name.

64 bit Windows 7 may need compatibility settings enabled in order to use Bluetooth with your new device.

Thanks...for both comments. I wanted backyardchickens it was too many letters.

How do I enable compatibility settings?

I'm seeing that although Bluetooth (version 6) is listed as ok, the Bluetooth file sender is not compatible with Windows 7 64 bit, and that no remedy is offered by Windows.

Windows 7 Compatibility for bluetooth: Drivers, Updates, Downloads

Windows 7 Compatibility for Bluetooth File Sender version 5: Soft Service. Drivers, Updates, Downloads

Perhaps others here will chime in if they've settled this issue with 64 bit Windows 7.

Sounds like it just won't work. Bummer.

Thanks for your help.

I think I got my phone to transfer over the virtual Windows XP via bluetooth. (I've tried so many things with so many devices that I don't remember.) It will be just as easy to do it with a USB cable as starting up virtual XP.

How do I know which version of bluetooth and bluetooth sender I have. I mean, I'm sure you know since this is an Optimus T forum, but how do I see it on my phone (or literature?)

Also, would an app make it work?

I saw this article that says that bluetooth transfer of photos was easy, but he doesn't say which windows he was using. Review: LG Optimus T (Phone Scoop)

Thanks again for your help. I've put a lot of time into this already and you are finally giving me some answers.
