I guess I'm getting old and senile or something. I 'never' thought to
right-click on the bluetooth icon on the task bar. I did that then
clicked on 'browse files on device. Was given a choice of Nokia or
Motorola. Clicked on Motorola and Nautilus came up with the phones dir's
and an icon on the desktop. Browsed files, copied to the computer with
no problems. I guess I was trying to make this just too hard, instead it
was just too easy!
