Check the technical specifications for your phone.
It may only be able to accept files via IrDa of a certain size, if the file is too big it will fail the connection. The limit is around 40k usually, but it does depend on the phone (Panasonic GD-87, Sony Ericsson T68i etc.)
Obviously, phones like the Sharp do not support IrDa file transfer so you will not be able to send or receive files via infrared.
The Sharp GX20 will support file transfer via infrared, but ONLY to and from a PC installed with the supplied software (it does not use IrDa file transfer on Windows).

Please can someone help me. I've got a Ericsson T68, and a Bluetooth adapter for my PC. They both connect with each other very well. Unfortunately my PC doesn't have an IrDA port, but my T68 does.
Is there anyway of conneting the IrDA port on the T68, through the Bluetooth connection to my PC. I've tried to convince windows that it does have IrDA port, by changing the COM port to a virtual Bluetooth COM port, and turning on the T68's serial port on.
Would you belive it, this doesn't work!. Why is nothing ever simple.
Do you need special software for the T68, or do you need to obtaine more software for the PC. I would be very greatfull if anyone has found out how to do this, or if at all possible. Thanks, _GMoore.
