Marc The phone is visible and the computer does find it. I just can't make any connection to the phone once I have found it. The connection is the missing part. Marc I finally got the phone paired to my computer. I don't actually know how. I tried so many things that I don't actually know what worked. Since then, I found obexftp, which transfers files, but is cumbersome. Then I found obexfs, which lets me mount the phone as a drive and then I can use any tools that I want. I'm calling this solved.

Good so far, now make your cell phone discoverable. That's in bluetooth settings somewhere then try that again. If that fails, see if you can make your computer discoverable and try taking the computer over with the cell phone. Some of these pieces of equipment really don't work.
