.gif is GIFf
.mid is Midi
.jpg is JPEG

I can send all of the above fine, but can someone please tell me the resource file type name for

.imy
.thm
.mpn

Without these I can't send Imelodies, themes or games to my phone. Please don't say use the search, as my connection is messed up and won't stay on for much more than 1 minute. I will track this topic on my phone.

Nope, that's not what I'm looking for. It's the equivalent of the examples I gave at the top, only 4 characters that fit. Don't you have some kind of program in which you can find out file type signatures? I use file buddy on my mac, but the file types will be the same on both.

:-( 4 little letters is all i need for each type. Here's an exampl of what they do. He i put MIDI on the resource of a ringtone.imy file in place of TEXT, it will send it as a .mid file to my sounds and won't play. He i put PREF on a Mophun file it will send really slowly to games but the game won't work. I've lost my www connection now so can't search anymore.

Ok thanks, topic is bookmarked. Next time i manage a connection I'll be looking and maybe even pm the other mac users. Anyone elses help would be good. He your a mac user and can send imy, themes or games via infra see to your phone, could you get file buddy from cnet then open the 3 files in it and tell me the file signature type name?

Just a thought but why the bonkers do you think you need the file type and creator?

Just use Bluetooth File Exchange and submit the file, it won't care about the file type nor creator... Those things are extinct with the death of the resource fork.

Hmmm, interesting didn't even know that you could transfer these in OSes older than 9

But then again these are pretty new file formats and most likely don't have file type/creator types regulated on note of them being data fork only too...
