When I try to access a file on my computer running Vista using my pda with a
BT connection, Vista gives me a dialog box titled "Bluetooth File Transfer
Access Authorization," saying
"Bluetooth device 'foo' has requested permission to copy file
'C:\Users\foo\Documents\Bluetooth Exchange Folder\test.txt' from your
computer. Click OK to authorize or Cancel to deny access.
Allow access
For the current request only.
For the next... 5 minutes
Always allow this device access to my computer's File Transfer service."
If I choose "For the current request only" or "For the next 5 minutes" it
works, but if I choose "Always allow this device access to my computer's
File Transfer service" then Vista gives me an error message saying "This
connection is not secure. Non-secure connections cannot be permanently
authorized."
Isn't bluetooth encrypted? And I paired the pda with the computer using a
passkey which Vista itself chose (a random number several digits long). Why
is it saying the connection is not secure? How do I make it secure?
