Problems transferring any file from my Galaxy S2 to laptop using a USB lead

A

AC Question

As above, and although both devices have Bluetooth, I can's seem to be able to do that either - in this case, both devices are paired-up but nothing happens! I never had a problem sending stuff via USB lead to my old phone ...... ! Are the two problems linked? Have I missed something out in the set-up stages? My old Sony gave *****-proof options when I tapped-on a video or photo, i.e 'Send to' or 'Send via' and it worked well. Ever since I got a Samsung Galaxy S2, I just don't be able to send anything from the phone to the p.c ........ HELP!!!!!!!!!

Welcome to Android Central! When you plug the phone in via USB, do you see a USB notification icon appear in the notification bar? If so, swipe down, tap the notification, and make sure MTP is selected.

If nothing appears in the notification bar, then try different USB cables, because cables can fail. Also try different USB ports on the computer.
