I got gnome-bluetooth in Ubuntu 14.04 to send some data via bluetooth. It functions perfectly fine with recent Android Smartphones (see pic 1) but I did not manage to send something to a (paired) Mac (see pic 2).

Does anybody made the same experience?

Pic 2: Mac without send button in right-hand corner Mac

EDIT: Filled bug report over here in launchpad.

  • I found out that I cannot send data from Ubuntu to the Mac but vice versa. How can I make Ubuntu send data to Mac? I figured out that when I type bluetooth-sendto into a terminal, I manage to send data to the Mac without any issue. Now, why is it not in the bluetooth menu in Gnome?

Use Blueman, you should be able to pair and initiate file transfer from it. I don't remember installing it on my ubuntu, so it may be preinstalled in 14.04, but if it isn't, just look in the software center.

Good luck!
