Phone connecting to people's computer when near them.. Help

[dt81]

This has just started to happen.. At the airport I work at we have free wifi.. My coworker turns her computer on and then all her photos appear in my gallery. If I walk away they disappear. When I return they return as well. This happens with a few other people who I work with. Haven't seen this issue before until today. Any idea what or why it's doing that and how to stop it?

Try this and let me know if this works.

Menu/Settings/wireless and networks - More/nearby devices/file shareing - Turn Off or customize how you want it to work. My phone doesn't do it but I've never turned it on.

Also... when you're on the 1st page on the gallery click the menu button veiw by content in device. This should fix you up.

.this is a fix only while on the gallery app. But once you go out of it and come back in, it defaults to show everything which i hate!

What about the 1st suggestion? That shouldn't just be while in gallery.

File sharing has always been off. Yet it still does it for some reason
