Bluetooth not fully functional?

A

AC Question

I have an LG phone and an Asus tablet, both running Android 4.0.3. I have never had a problem sending files via Bluetooth to my desktop Mac.

Now, suddenly, neither one will send a file. Yes, I suppose it could be the Mac, but the Androids won 't send anything to each other, either.

I can browse, upload and download on both through the Mac's Bluetooth File Exchange app, I can talk on the phone using any one of several headsets and speakerphone devices. But when I try to send a file from the phone or tablet, I see "Sending file to Mac", then "File not sent." Nothing appears on the Mac monitor as it used to, telling me a file is being received.

As I said, I have other means of moving stuff around, but Bluetooth is convenient, and I like things to just work.

Any thoughts appreciated.
